asked him was they any lowers left
and he says no but If she would try
the upper that night why maybe she
could get some man TO change with

Well she had broad casting voice

strive entirely for high marks, but
must strive actually to learn things.
Then. he said, high marks will come
naturally.
Nobody seems to realize the condi-
tion of thorough education in Wash

charged. The city needs at least
three new eight-room schools each
year. Central was built to accom-
modate $500 pupils. There are en-
rolled now 5000, and consequently the
proper educational facilities cannot
be given.
Tribute to the work of Superinten-
dent Ballou was paid by Mr.. Kramer.
who said the city had never had a
superintendent who had given more
constructive work. He pointed out
DR.. Ballou's efforts with the budget

gave forth real facts that no one
could deny.

Declaring the child's loss OF edu-

Il. Kramer, principal of Central High

a meeting of the Connecticut Avenue
Citizens Association last night in All
Souls Parish Hall, the growing need
of more funds for educational work
in the District.
Mr.. Kramer said financial losses
may be recovered in time, but if a
child is not given the proper educa-
tion in early youth the loss cannot
be made up. He said it is the duty
of the school to turn out the chill

Again there has been the feeling
that Brennan hasn't been breaking
his back training. OF course. this may
be because he. holds Ffrpo lightly.
And it may not. No one can tell
AS the situation stands Firpo has
pulled Carpenters stuff by going into
retirement for his finishing touches.
That was good move. For the more
he showed his stuff against the
Jamaica Kid and Jack Johnson, the
more convinced became the fans that
he hasn't improved any since the days
when he was out in Newark meeting
third-raters.
Firpo's footwork has been about a.
neat and shifty as safe movers. He
has no speed in hitting. and his de
fense is equally slow. In the secrei
practice of the past few days he MAY
have picked up lot, but it would
nave to be lot to fill any ordinary
observer of pugilistic form with the
against Dempsey, Tommy Gibbons OF
Harry Wills.
In fact. if he doesn't show more
speed Monday night than he has
shown Bill Brennan would have to
make a joke of the bout before Firpo
could be turned in winner. He can
hit. can Frpo, there is no doubt
about that, but that let's him out. II
certainly looks as though Dempsey
and kearns are lurking in the back
SIouiu Wditlns lor the result or Mon
day nights fight.
Dempsey has fought three times
since he, won the championship, and
he has developed an exalted idea of
the sum OF money he should be paid
for appearing in the ring. His brief
and snooty reply of mot interested"
TO western promoter who offered
him a hundred thousand dollars to
meet Gibbons would indicate that he
and his manager have other plans
the chief one, perhaps. being d battle
against Firpo in the Argentine for
purse that will put him beyond the
necessity of ever fighting again.
This isn't to say he won't fight
again. In fact. it is cinch he will
stack up against Willard next sum
mer. provided Jess makes a satsfac-
tory showing against Floyd Johnson.
But be that as it may, Dcmpsey's pro
fesSional outlook is Surely of a sort
where he has not time to listen to the
bids of small-time promoters.

Reports about. hardheads being
caught in the lower Potomac and
chesapeake Bay are true. In the
majority of cases the fish were small,
but late report from Chesapeake
Bay gives the encouraging news that
oystermen fishing in rather deep wa
ter landed a good string, ranging
from one to two pounds.
While awaiting the run Of perch
some of the local anglers. taking ad-
vantage or the fine weather recently
were very successful in fishing for big
catfish. One party. which visited the
river near Chain Bridge, was re-
warded with a catch of eighty-five
pounds. the largest fish weighing six
teen pounds.
F. d. Simonds. fishing at Stubble-
field Falls, landed nine catfish, three
weighing eleven pounds and six aY-
eraging about three pounds each.
Joe Perron, well known local angler
caught eight averaging four pounds
each.
Another sign of an early fishing sea-
son was furnished when five dozen
hardshell craps were sent to the anR-
lers of The Star pressroom. The crabs
were the gift of Capt. Andy Manifold
of Herring Bay. 1t is thought that

the crabs. This is very unusual at
this time OF the year During the
winter month the crab busies it
self in the mud, in pretty deep water
and remains until nature notifies 1t
that it is time to come out. The
crabs were medium size and very
light in color. almost a yellow. in
