SENIOR
|. LOOP WITH
CURT|NS
BY GARRETT WATERS

Bert L. Olmsted used to belong
to that group known as the tired
business mems league. Always
extremely busy with the running
of his restaurant on G Street,
Olmsted never felt agreeable for
anything but rest after working
hours-until he met up with SnitZ
Nau and a collection of youthful
baseball players who wanted him
to sponsor a team in a diamond
campaign.
OImsted was so impressed
with the anxiOuSness Of the
youngsters staring him in the
face that he considered, and
after q little talk sent them
home with the realization that
they we're at last going to
have q ball team Of real or
ganizatiOn.
When Manager Snitz Nau
ordered practice, Olmsted found
himself down to the Ellipse dia-
mond to watch proceedings. Oddly
he forgot about all his business
worries and before he knew it
found himself becoming a most
intereStd baseball fan, something
he didn't have an idea he'd be-
come months before.
Now Olmsted is a real baseball
fan. Instead of just dropping
around to practice or to the
games, he's the first one on tap
these days, lending helping
hand to Manager Snitz Nau at
all times and roofing other times
The team Olmsted sponsors
Is known as the OlmSted Grill
nine. Entered in the Capital
City Senior League, it shares
the lead Of Section B at pres
ent with the Curtin All-Stars.
This team is to be met Sun
day in a game which will de-
eide the undisputed leader.
ship for the winner. If its
anybOdys lead after Sunday
it will be the OlmSted mines,
according to Bert, who feels
that the team really will win.
The Olmsted Grill nine does
look formidable. 1t has several
Standout players who have helped
no little in the record of the team
so far. They include Everett Rus
sell, pitcher and former Tech
High School player; Bernard
Hemelt, former Catholic Univer-
sity Prep, third baseman, and
Henry Quantrille, outfielder and
dangerous batter of the team.
The OImsteds have beaten
the Majestic Radio, Miller
Furniture, Pierce and Lionel
teams to gain the top posi-
tiOn they share with theeCur-
tins. Such an excellent brand
of ball as they have displayed
in these games is thought
enough that they, The Cur
tins, will be included in their
lists of victims after Sunday.
It goes for Bert Olmsted'S boost
ing of the team in addition to his
sponsorship that has put it where
it is this season. Just a tired buSi-
ness man being popped up by the
knowledge that there was some
thing else in this world but busi-
ness is his case. And it's dollars
to doughnuts that he's glad of the
day when Manager Snitz Nau and
those collection of half-afraid
youngsters came to him for his
leadership.

NOTE RAISING LOST ART
WITH NEW CURRENCY
Treasury Official Attributes Fact to
Difficulty of Changing
Special Design.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Since the new small-sized currency
has come into use Walter Z. Hope,
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
has found that note raising has be-
come almost a lost art.
He attributes the elimination of this
form of counterfeiting to the dificulty
of changing the new currency, which
was put into circulation last July.
Each of the new bills has a special
design for each denomination, so that
raising the numerals would not fool
any one who looked at the note with
care
The Assistant Secretary said, how
ever, that the publics faith in the
new currency was so complete that
the average person was becoming care
less. To this only he attributed sue
cess in passing counterfeits of the new
money.
Hope added. however, that counter
felt bills would continue to appear and
warned the public not to relax its
vigilance.
