Every Kid Reading

Everywhere the globe over

ans visit to President Hoover.
He's king for a week in the i'm
aginations Of millions. He's on
a pedestal and is getting the
bows and salaams Of more
folks for his deed Of bravery
and his personal sacrifice in
giving his clothes to children
who couldn't stand the cold as
we'll as himself. than any king
ever got in a similar length of
time.
Bryan Untiedt is the kind of
boy you'd want your son or
brother to be, and that is an
other reason all of America is
proud of him today. That is
why he is being given a dis
tinction that no American lad
has ever before enjoyed.
It is a grand tribute, and we
imagine President Hoover has
in mind that, besides being a
tribute to this particular boy,
it is also a tribute to the boys
of America and the world, too.
Probably President Hoover has
not made any single gesture
since he has been in the White

When the end came, Steele,

for him and cupped him under the

GOLF TOURNEY

The Spring Golf Tournament
of the Electric League of Wash
ington, D. c., will be held at the
Manor Club on Tuesday. Play
will start at noon, and a din
ner for the contestants at 6
o'clock in the evening will
round out the days sport.
About 100 contestants are ex-
pected to enter the tournament
which will feature both straight
and kicker's handicaps. Fifteen
handsome prizes, the gifts of
electrical manufacturers and
wholesalers, will be awarded at
the dinner following the tourna-
ment.
Electric League have become
one Of the most popular en-
tertainment features of the
electrical industry and has been
instrumental in creating an
interest in the game among
many electrical people in the
past few years.
These tournaments have become
noted for the large number of
contestants, often running 95
per cent of the entire member
ship of the organization, and for
the value of the prizes which are
donated by various electrical
firms.

a line on him right now. He's
in shape to go now and this
looks like the biggest test he
has faced yet. l, for one, ex-

Glowing reports have been re-
ceived regarding KuhePS Baltl-
more performances. His shifty
fielding and lusty clouting have
attracted widespread com m n t
among International que
scribeS and it was with regret
that Business Manager George
Weiss of the Orioles consented
to part with him yesterday.
SmOothes Rough Edges
Before going to Baltimore,
Kuhel, who had seen little or no
League service with the
Criffmen this season, appeared a
bit rusty. Continuous action over
a period of several days, however,
seems to have brought him
around.
During Judges absence
Baxter Jordan, the versatile
Newark rookie, is to under.
study Kuhel. Jordan looked
not at all bad on the first
cushion while substituting for
Judge during the latter part OF
yesterdays game. Another
change in WashingtOn'S lineup
today probably will find
"Pinkie'' Hargrave and Cliff
Bolton dividing the back
stopping between them when
the Griffmen and Red SOx
clash in their dOubleheader
here.
Roy Spencer, Washington's big
Bertha to date, had his right
knee-cap bruised by a foul tip
early in yesterdays game and the
member was badly
swollen this morning.
If Spencer is absent for a few
days, Hargrave, who has been
meeting the ball vigorously IN
recent workouts, likely will get
the first string call.
The Washington times., 1931-05-02

Kuhel, who reported here bright
and early this morning, overnight
has been assigned to a man-sized
job. For the Kansas City graduate
will be called upon to fill the
capable shoes of Capt. Joe Judge,
Washington's premier initial door
man for at least an eight-week
period, maybe longer.
Kuhel Optimistic
Joe was highly optimistic when
he checked in here today. Having
played himself into stride with
Baltimore, he is confident that he
can do his bit toward keeping
Washington in the championship
swim"
"I'd be foolish to class myself
with JOeSJudge," Kuhel chirped
upon his arrival, "but / do be-
lieve 1 can hold up my end. The
Baltimore work did me worlds
of good. I'm on edge and ready
to make the most of my
chance"
Captain Judge, in the mean
time, was resting comfortably in
Pete Bren Brigham Hospital fol-
lowing an operation for eppendi-
citis last night.
DR.. Francis Newton, who per-
sonally supervised the operation,
pronounces it highly successful.
Will Return Here
When physically able Judge is
to return to Washington for rest.
At 1915 o'clock exactly he went
under the knife. And at / o'clock
this morning he had thrown OIL
the effects of the ether.
"JOe will be back in uniform
when we return home late in
May" Trainer Mike Martin
predicted today. "He will be
playing ball before midway in
June. Judges operation was a
marked success. We are sorry
to lose him but are glad we
caught him in time"
While Manager Walter John
son echoed Martins sentiment
he was inclined to take the thing
philosophically.

Once Every Year

We'd like to see the Presi-
dent of the United States do
the same thing he is doing for
Bryan Untiedt for some Ameri-
can boy every year, and about
this time when Washington is
at its prettiest. We believe such
a plan would do more to inspire
fine acts among boys and gen
orally raise their caliber than
anything that could be done.
The Boy Scouts could select the
best boy in America for such a
trip.
Back when we were reading
McGuffy's Fifth Reader it said
that every American boy is
eligible to become President Of
the United States, the highest
honor the country can bestow
upon any citizen. That's a Won
derful sentiment; but there are
so many boys and We all live
for such a brief span that
there's a little something dis
heartening in setting out to be-
come President.
If we could also print in the
Fifth Reader, or the First or
Second or Tenth, that once a
year Americas outstanding
boy could come and live in the
White House for a spell, to see
whether he would like it should
he ever become President, we
believe a lot of boys, yea, we
believe practically every boy
would shape his life, first for
the trip to visit the President
and later perhaps, to sometime
succeed him.
