TWO NET MEETS
CANCELLED

That old familiar expression is
back with us today, weather per-
mitting," and already two events
have been washed off the slate.
Catholic University's tennis team,
which has been trying for two
weeks to open its season, again is
baked. Washington and Lees net
men were the Cardinals scheduled
opponents today, but the soggy con-
dition Of the C. U. courts has caused
postponement of the match.
The Gonzaga-Friends prep school
tennis match is another event which
has felt the necessity of postpone
ment. Coach Guyon's hardy East
ern baseball team, however, is at
Alexandria to engage Alexandria
High, and will play every day this
week unless forced to idle.
The second round of games i'm
the interhigh series will be
played tomorrow, Central and
Eastern tangling, both in base
ball and tennis.
Other high school baseball games
find Business meeting Episcopal at
alexandria and Dewitt playing
Hyattsville. Catholic U. plays the
first Of four away-froln-home games
tomorrow, engaging Mt. st. Marys,
while Georgetown will get into ac-
ton again after more than a weeks
lay-off, Western Maryland furnish
ing the opposition.
Although Central took a neat
lacing from Tech Friday, they will
be no pushover for the Guyonites.
Capt. Sanford Ross, Central pitcher,
got off to a bad start in his series
debut and the whole team seemed
to be nervous. This nervous ten
sion will be absent tomorrow and
Ross would like nothing better than
to triumph over Eastern. Last
year he almost accomplished this
and feels that he will succeed to-
morrow
GeOrgetO wn will put the
strongest nine on the field to-
morrow that it has mustered
yeG% En1S year. W&AbOE NlOTEIS
will be at third base and Johnny
Beck will be back at first base.
It will be Morris first game Of
the year, an infected foot having
kept him idle, while Bozek will be
back at the doorway after having
been home because of illness in his
family.
There is a rumor that Coach
Jack Clarke Is considering equip
ping his Catholic University base
ball team with large forks before
it embarks on its four-day tour.
Forks have no place on a baseball
field ordinarily, but, Catholics team
Is no ordinary team.
All season long the team has
been handling the ball like it was
hot potato, committing seven or
eight errors in almost every game.
Although baseball Is a trifle
harder than a potato, which may
foil the purpose of spearing, yet
the team can hardly do worse than
it has and an improvement is ex-
pected, although gloves may be
used just once more, in final trial
before the radical fork experiment
is adopted.

Air Mail Value Grows

II Is doubtful II anyone today can vision the I'M
portance Of an international airport to the future de-
velopment Of the Valley.
Air mail volume handled by lines operating in
the United States during May surpassed all former
records, weighing 587,471 pounds, according to report
of the United States ~postoffice department.
Lines operating out Of the Valley made a con-
siderable contribution to this volume. according to
the report Of Postmaster G. w. bennett, which shows
that 1857 pounds Of mail we're handled through his
office during the month.
An official Of the department Of commerce, which
Is in charge Of aviation in the United States at a
conference in Houston recently forecast that within
five years all f~irst-class mail will be carried In air
planes.
These figures indicate that prediction vii be
realized.
During May planes carrying mail IN the United
States flew an average OF 36,334 miles daily and car
ried an average of 1880 pounds per day.
The poundage surpassed even that carried last
December, when Christmas mail raised the total 10
$4,000 pounds. The May total surpassed the figure
Tor April by 1879 pounds.
Delay in the transmission Of mail between the
United States and Central and South American
points always has been the chief stumbling block 70
development Of business with these countries.
Line now operating bring New York City and Mex
leo City in as close communication as New York City
and st. Louis we're before the days Of air mail. Even
more important savings in time soon are to be made
between Eastern United States points and Central
and South American countries.
Practically all this business eventually will flow
through the Brownsville airport.
As important as aerial commurication Is between
cities OF the United States. even more important viii
be the service between cities Of the North and South
American continents.
II is no far-fetched dream to vision the day when
hundreds of planes monthly will leave the airport
here for points to the south and return from the
same points.
Then thousands Of passengers will be going
through here to and returning from points as far
south as the Panama Canal and beyond.
Emergency express shipments will be handled to
all South America.
The international airport will be a beehive OF in
dustry and the air will be filled with planes flying
north, south, east and west.

Annual Need of Highways

The state highway commission has let It be known
that II the program Of highway development is to
be speeded UP to meet the general demand, the an
nual income Of the state highway department from
state sources ought under no circumstances to be less
than S30.O00,O0O."
In addition to this the highway commissioners said
the people Of this commonwealth have an investment
OF not less than $1,000 100000 in motor vehicles and
that these are Of value to their owners in proportion
TO the condition Of the highways or roads over which
they are operated.
These commissioners OF highways take the posi-
ton that material reduction In the motor vehicle
license fees will seriously cripple the work OF the de-
partment and that a SO per cent cut would be ruin
GUS"
They advanced the argument. that the people are
not clamoring for a large reduction in license regis
tration fees, but are seeking good roads and properly
sure. according to the lawmakers. They say that the
owners Of motor vehicles are demanding a sweeping
reduction.
They say that the highway department has ex-
pended SS600Ol 600 in two years ar. five months and
instead Of a fund shortage they have approximately
el5.0O0,O goo in the treasury strong-box subject to
check.
1t is said the figures were prepared. by request Of
course, by state Treas. Gregory Hatcher. Texas is
an empire state. In area it is as large as New Eng
land and New York and a slice Of Pennsylvania
thrown in for good measure.
II takes 4 lot Of money to build highways for the
people Of an empire commonwealth almost as large
as Germany.

Fruit Fly Fund Voted By House

Preparedness IS the thing. An emergency apprO-
priation or $4,000 was rushed through the house to
aid in the fight on the Mediterranean fEuit fly. There
should be no delay on the part Of the senate. Rep.
Bond Of Kaufman county, one Of the very able mem
bers OF the house. gave his support to the appropria-
ton. He said. "this is an emergency appropriation
that will probably save the entire citrus crop Of the
state." If necessary to save the citrus industry 10
times $4,000 should be appropriated as q starter.
