Kansas City, Mo, April 2.-Plans Tor the distribution of six million buddy poppies throughout the coun- try during the week prior to Memo rial day, in the tenth annual buddy poppy sale conducted by the vet- erans of Foreign Wars of the U.

 ssE'or the past several months, dis Abled veterans in government hos pitfalls have been making these buddy peoples at rate of approximately 50,000 peoples a month, declared Handy, who has ofiiciated as chair man of the national buddy poppy committee since 1923.
 Despite the fact that large number of needy veterans have been helped by the loans they are able to secure on their adjusted com pensation certificates, the present need for assistance and relief has never been more acute. Handy added.

In addition, it offers quicker starting, far smoother pickup, and less crankcase dilution, due to its special clean-burning qualities.

In some sections, in fact, Esso is already used by more motorists than any other gasoline, regardless of price.

Here's How Come

Judge Mattingly sent five
dollars as a subscription to the
Muddy Ruel fund whereby and
whereas the limit any indi-
vidual can contribute, accord
ing to law, is one dollar.
So Postmaster Mooney kept
two dollars, one for Judge Mat
tingly and one for Mrs. Mat
tingly and remitted three dol
lars post haste, in fact with so
much post and so much haste
that the special delivery mes
senger found himself in the
tolls of the law for unneces-
sarlly burning up the asphalt
and otherwise offending the
dignity of the traffic regula-
tionS.
In his letter to Judge Mat
tingly, returning the three dol
lars, Mr.. Mooney made but one
observation, and it's one to go

TODAY'S SPORTORIAL
The fact that Judge the Municipal bench is
no license for him to break rules
BY Kirk Miller

This situation came to light
today when Judge Robert E.
Mattingly tried to wreck the
entire spirit of the Muddy Ruel
Remembrance Campaign Which
closes one week from tomorrow
night, and Postmaster William
M. Mooney lost no time in set
ting the judge down for the
count.
So enthused was the good
jurist over the opportunity to
honor Muddy Ruel that he
made so bold as to try to send
more than the limit permitted
any individual. and Postmaster
Mooney sent back the excess
contribution so fast that his
messenger got arrested for
speeding between the Postoffice
and the Municipal Court.
If the case of speeding comes
up in Police Court on a day
when His Honor, Judge Mat
tingly, happens to be presiding
on the north side of Louisiana
Avenue, he may have to per-
Sonally pay the messengers
fine.
You see it is this way:
The Washington times., 1931-04-08

There will be a head coach.
And there will be an athletic di-
rector. Perhaps there may be a
combination of both. At least it
is certain that these positions
will be filled.
But by whom-and when?
There was no one who could
supply the answer.
AS far as the school itself is
concerned, any attempt at find
ing a successor for Rock would
be like devising a substitute for
the sunrise.
From the Rev. Charles L.
O'Donnell, president, down to the
young chap who earned the title
of "chair bearer" for Knute last
season, the feeling was that there
is no man who can take Rocks
place. And this is seconded by
the multitude.
Members of the faculty refuse
to discuss the subject at this
time, but, as far as the job Of
directing the football team is con-
cerned, Hung" Anderson likely
will carry on at least for the 1881
season.
Heavy Work to Anderson
Had Rockne lived this would
have been the situation in the
season of 1888, because Knute
himself had indicated that at the
expiration of his contract he
would turn the heavy work over
to Anderson and continue as ath-
letic director, with the honorary
title of advisory coach.
That combination would have
been ideal because there always
would be a ROckne around in a
pinch" just as there was when
Northwestern was beaten in
1926, Southern California the
same year, and the Army in
1928, in the last minutes of
play when the magic touch Of
a Rockne gave Notre Dame
that winning edge.
Anderson knows everything
there is to know about Notre
Dame football as it is constituted
at present. He knows the players
and he knew what the plans were
for the 1881 season. It is a
known fact that the success of
Notre Dame teams have their
foundation in the spring. 1t is
as this time that the regular team
is picked. There is no man better
qualified, therefore, than Hung"
to swing into the 1881 schedule.
Working under Rockne, Ander-
son turned out a corking job in
developing line men. In fact, as
a line coach, he hasn't an as
sistant in the country. But
Anderson did not inherit the
Rockne magnetism or the Rockne
psychology. Knute took that with
him.

the faculty to find men to exc
cute them Anderson will fill the
bill but there was much more
than the execution of plays and
the selection of men in the way
Notre Dame played football. That
was where Rockne sparkled.
Anderson is a coach and a
good one. But comparing his
executive, oratorical and diplo-
matte powers to Rockne's would
be most unfair. We shall not
attempt to do that. Hung" isn't
built along those lines and he
probably would admit it. So it
is unlikely that he would be con-
sidered as athletic director.

Of the free-for.all variety-on
