Household Methods
BY BETSY CALLIsTER,
Rag Dolls.

There was a time when little girls
considered rag dolls only as rather in
ferior substitutes for dolls with china
or wax faces or the later bisque dolls
that were considered quite the last
word in dolldom. Nowadays rag dolls
have come up in the social scale Of dolls,
and really nice doll of this sort can
look any china doll in the face without
the slightest disconceTtion, realizing
that in the doll shops they bring quite
as high price as their rivals.
If you make rag doll yourself, how
ever, you may do so at very small cost.
You will need fairly good quality of
unbleached muslin for the covering Of
the body. You may buy a pattern for
the doll and her dress If you like, or
you may easily make a pattern for
yourself. The body consists of double
oblong Of material rounded slightly at
the corners. The legs are straight
pieces and SO are the arms. They may
be shaped in a little at wrists and
ankles. and the hand may be shaped
little to indicate thumb and fingers.
The head consists of another double
piece Of material, slightly longer than
1t Is wide and smaller than the body
piece and we'll rounded The pieces are
stitched up, leaving place open for
stuffing with cotton wadding. The dolls
face may be achieved by painting with
oil paints or by embroidery done with
colored mercerized embroidery cotton.
The hair may be indicated by embroid-
cry stitches or by rows of golden brown
worsted sewed to the head.
From scraps of material in your work
basket you can make attractive petit
coat and knickers for the doll, and the
dress may be made from frill Of lace
edged figured cotton. For the young
child the best way to dress the rag doll
Is in romper costume or fine checked
gingham. If you. want to know how to
make a variety Of charming dolls of
this sort, just go to the doll department
of any toy store and you will ind all
the inspiration you can need.

Hold Everything
BY JOE HOLMAN

Unless the District chapter Of
the Amateur Athletic Union i'm
mediately reconsiderS the action
instigated through its official
basketball representative, Winfree
johnson, open warfare between
Washington's so-called amateur
and independent factions will de-
velop' into an actuality.
When johnson, representing
the august body, commanded Bert
Coggins, Central High Schools
athletic director, to forego to-
morrow nights scheduled game
with Census Enumerators at the
Tech gymnasium, he automat-
ically created an upheaval.
Probably Johnson, at the
time, did not realize that
rather than purifying" the
local situation he was further
cOmplicating a matter that
was delicate at best.
The A. A. u, it seems, objects
to the EnumeratorS because two
of their performers, Earle Moser
and Mickey Macdonald, do not
measure up to the unions anna
teur standard. AS a matter of
fact it is reported that the jew
ish Community Center and St.
Martins fives have already been
dropped from good standing be-
cause they participated in games
involving these players.
That's only part of the story.
Now unless the Union does some
tall back-pedalling within the
next few hours several other out
standing combinations VIII C h

either opposed or represented
likewise will tumble from grace.
MOser already has shown
with the Aces and Griffith
consumers this season. Too,
he has performed alternately
against Army War College,
Jewish Community Center,
st. Martins, TremOntS and
Stewart BrOthers.
The, glaring mistake = made by
the District A. A. U. since its
early organization has been its

Such is the answer Of Herb

McCracken says the matter Of
eligibility is something for each
college to decide for itself and
that the teams which don't like
another's eligibility rule, simply
should avoid playing that team.
