SEEKING SHIFT 7
Of SOCCER TILT

The Marlboro, Md, soccerites,
who oppose the District KickerS
in a semi-final game of the Wash
ington and Southeastern District
Soccer Association game Sunday,
are anxious to have the game
played on the Monument grounds.
Marlboro players voiced this SEN
timent yesterday IS they saw the
Washington Concord Club enter
the final rounds by virtue of a
thrilling 80 decision over the New
port News, Va, hooters. About
1000 fans witnessed the struggle.
It is understood that the Marl-
boro-DiStrict KickerS game is
scheduled to be played on the Sill
yer Spring, Md, field. The win
ner of the contest will oppose
Washington-Concord in the final
game.
SUH1C StOuO "OAA ny
MaIlOch, George FauIds, the
KOennel brothers and Heise was
outstanding in the Washington
Concord victory. John Pollock,
Alex Mitchell and Wallace were
dOmiant players for the losers.
The game was said to be the
most sensational ever played. At
least, ita has never been exceeded
in swift and fast play, daring raj
lies and desperate chances. At
times, play became too spirited
and, on one occasion, Referee Leo
Leckey was forced to Danish
Whiteford, of the visitors, and
Louie Koennel, of the home side.
The. winning goal came Is sec
onds before the end of the game.
The Washington team had started
a dying drive and was pressing
deeply into enemy territory. After
goalkeeper Wallace had stopped
several shots, the alert Johnny
Malloch centered to Karl Boyer
lin, who was free, and the latter
blasted the ball into the net.

Revenge Sought
Having failed to stop TIE
Naval Academy'S football team

In two starts before the Yule-
tide, Coach Jim Pixlee'S smart
Sters measured out Shenandoah
College by merry margin and
followed up with a highly I'M
pressive upset Of Baltimore Uni
verSity.
Much of George WaShinSton's
hopes will be fastened upon two
SharpShooting wizards and a crack
defensive center. Forrest Burgess
and Dead Eye Conner are the goal
hawks, while Arthur Zahn, stand
out of the Baltimore game, is q
team player par excellence.
Though showing no better
than q 500 percentage in four
starts, GaNaudet'S Big BlWeS

SLUGSFRON
RIGHT SIDE
BY JOE HOLMAN

After a long time search,
virtually country wide, Clark
Griffith may discover that coveted
"right hand hitting" outfielder in
his own back yard!
Denny Sothern, formerly of the
Philadelphia Nationals and Pitts
burgh Pirates and now connected
with the Baltimore Orioles, is the
player in question.
Well founded rumor has it that
Griffith is highly interested in
the one-time Capital sandlotter.
While Denny, who is making his
home here this winter, steadfastly
refuses to confirm the report and
Griffith himself has nothing to
say, it would not surprise if 1881
found the fleet outfielder in a
Washington uniform.
Stuns Baseball
Sothern's trade to Pittsburgh
for Utility Outfielder Bartell was
a distinct surprise last season.
But this was nothing compared
to the stir aroused when the
Pirates waived him out of the
majors and shipped him to
Baltimore.
Many Washington club play
ers have gone on record as
terming SOthern a crack ball
player. Not only is he nor
maIly a 300 hitter but he is
a fielding flash and fast afOOt.
When waivers we're asked on
the Pirate gardener, many Ma
tional League writer's contend,
several managers who might
have claimed him either were
not around or overlooked him in
the shuttle.
Sothern, while with the Faint
ing Phils, proved himself a
capable lead-off man and his
spectacular feats afield earned
him many big hand.
Scared Leaders
Denny, it is said, was par
ticularly poisonous against
the league leaders. Two years
ago while cavOrting with the
PhilS he threw many scare
into the ranks Of the pennant-
winning Chicago Cubs. And
in 1880, while a Pirate, he
played a major part in un-
balancing Brooklyn from the
National League pinnacle.
In a crucial series with the
Robins Sothern was sent in as a
pinch hitter with two men
aboard. Until Sothern came to
bat Jim Elliott, Brooklyn pitcher,
had allowed but two hits.
Promptly enough Denny doubled
both men across and won the
ball game. AS if this were not
enough he cost the Robins an
other game shortly afterward
when he backed against the
bleacher railing for a phenomenal
back-hand stab of an apparent
home run from the. bat of Babe
Herman.

EVERY DELAWARE FARM MUST
GROW VEGETABLE GARDEN

The bright colored catalOgs with
/ thrilling stories of crisp vegetables
are the GOrerunners of spring and
i the advance agent telling us that it
is time to begin planning for Il real
garden, which almost everyone in
lower Delaware can have. In Sus-
sex county alone we have 1884 farms
and everyone, if inhabited, should
have garden. In addition we have
many others living in towns who
have or can secure a backyard or
vacant lot which with plenty of hoe
handle exercise, good judgment and
carefully planning can be made into
a garden to brag about. With dollars
scarce, labor plentiful, and good soil,
why not have a garden this year?
Gardens are valuable in two ways; /;
as a cash asset and also as Il health
asset.
Let us look at the garden of A. r.
Redheffer, of HarbeSOn, on cold mat
ter of fact cash basis. AS we all
know last year was rather unfavOr-
able for our garden crops yet in spite
of the drought Mr.. Redheffer was
rather successful with his garden.
His garden was approximately Ask
100 feet or about Is of an acre, yet
he grew the following vegetables,
and enough for home use and some
for sale: beets, eggplants, lettuce,
rhubarb, asparagus, cabbage, rad
ishes, onionsfi carrots, parsnips,
lima beans, peppers. tomatoes. early
and late potatoes, sweet potatoes,
sweet corn, squash, pumpkins, rape,
parsley, endive, watermelons, canta-
lOupes and satisfy. His cash eX-
penses were 1926 and returned to
.$6.70 or a gain of $51.45 on is
acre, which is at the rate of $411.50
per acre. AS health asset, the gar
den was just as valuable.
Some outstanding faults with
many of our gardens lies in the fact
that vegetables come and go and lit
tie effort is made in making repeat
ed paintings to lengthen out the sea-

KITCHEN WORK EASIER

Laura B. Rutherford, the County
Home Demonstration Agent, says
that women of Sussex county should
make their kitchen work easier by
saving Kitchen mileage. This
should be the slogan of every home
maker.
The kitchen is the workshop ol
tho home and every hOmemakeI
should strive for efficiency in hel
workshop. When this is accom-
plished, there will be much savings
of steps, time and energy on the
part of the housewife.
One of the first adjustments that
will contribute materially to this de-
sired efficiency is that of arranging
the kitchen furnishings and equip
ment into conveniently grouped
working centers.
There are three distinct operations
involved during the process of get
ting a meal ready to serve. They
are: first, preparation; second, cook
ing, and third, clearing away. There
fore, the work centers should be ar
ranged SO that these three opera
tienS hlay be performed with as lit
tie effort as possible. The principle
working centers of the kitchen arc:
the work table, sink, or source of
water supply, and the stove. These
centcrs then should be placed as
close together as is possible regard
less of The size or shape of tire room.
The storage cupbOards for both
food supply and utensils also play
quite an important part in the
kitchen mileage. All small working
equipment that is used daily should
be hung or stored on shelves over or
near the work table Pots and skill
let's should be hung or stored near
the store where they are used. Pot
lids should be near the stove. A
small supply of materials as salt,
pepper, flour, etc, should be or near
the store. Other staple food supplies
should be stored near the work table
or cabinet. Try getting these sup
plies and utensils close together and
note the difference in the number of
steps required to prepare a meal.
The next big step in saving energy
is to see that these working sur
faces arc the right height. One can
save about 40 per cent of energy
while doing kitchen work if the
heights of the sink, stove and work
table are adjusted to the womans
individual height. Many women
have tired backs and round should
ers from working on surfaces too |
low.
The work table, the bottom of the |
sink and the top of the stove are the |
proper heights when standing erect |
before them the palms of the hands |
can be laid fiat on these surfaces
STOPPING or bending the |
arms. If the palms are above them,
say two inches, then they should be
Two inches. In the case of a work

son of our fayoritc vegetables nor is
enough attention paid to growing an
ample and varied supply of root and
canning crops for the winter. We
have a number of vegetables as rad
ish. lettuce. early turnips. peas, on
ion sets, parsnips, spinach, parsley,
satisfy. potatoes, etc, that can be
planted almost as soon as the soil
can be worked These are cool
weather plants and will not produce
to their best ability under hot wealth
er conditions.
Why not try some sweet corn just
after the first planting of peas. Sup
pose it does freeze, the loss is little
and if it gets by, you will have some
real early sweet corn. This crop
should be planted about every ten
days until July 1st to insure a sup
ply until frOsts. Repeated paintings
of peas, using some dwarf type, can
be made. String beans may be plantr
ed a short time after the first gar
den planting, and these too, should
be followed with repeated paintings
about every ten days.

tie cold unless protected in some
manner. Pepper, egg plants, lima
beans, pole beans, cucumbers,
brussels sprouts, carrots,
Swiss Chard, Chinese cabbage, beets,
endive, celery and many other vege-
tables can easily be grown in our
gardeus. For anyone to get the most
out of the garden, it is necessary to
practice succession and companion
cropping. If you would like to re-
ceive a plan of a Sussex county gar
den, showing time of planting, ma
turity date and succession cropping,
write either to Miss Laura B. Ruther-
ford, Home Demonstration Agent, or
