TIME outstanding popularity of
this handwriting is the entirely
different manner in which the
l. writer crosses her It's" Some
are decidedly up-slanting, while
others have very marked down-slant.
From this We would judge that the
writer is a person of changing moods,
being alternately gay or unhappy. She
perhaps becomes easily enthusiastic
over project only to find her interest
quickly waning. This is unfortunate,
as she apparently has many talents
that are possibly being wasted because
Of this lack of continued purpose.
The "g" also commands attention.
It is the least accurately formed of
her letters. This denotes occasional
careleSsnesS on her part, although or
dinarily she appears to be accurate and
careful 1t may be that at times she
grows impatient with the trend of
things, causing her to disregard entire
~ her usual manner.
Seemingly she is very gifted in an
artistic way. In all proba bility she not
only is a keen lover of art, but in
addition is very talented herself. She
would appear to be the type for whom
Water color, with its clear translu-
cency, would perhaps offer her the best
medium of expression. If she cares to
utilize this ability in making a living,
it would seem that costume design
would be a very absorbing and inter
esting vocation Here she would be en-
abled to combine her love for color
with unique design.
She will probably have to fight
against her tendency to become quickly
bored with any occupation. She should
endeavor to concentrate on the sub
ject at hand while working, but after
hours" should radically change from
the type of thing she has been doing
In her recreational pursuits she could
easily indulge in her love for variety

Associates say that mutual love for
the outdoors has strengthened the

the economic ills of the country.
He was chairman of the Subcommit-
tee on Banking and Currency which
considered the bill. By virtue OF this
position it fell to him to guide its prog
ress on the floor.
1t was the tall Connecticut Yankees
first big assignment as a Senator. He
has kept rather still since he took his
seat in l929-just sat in and listened
most of the time.
Walcott's friendship with the Presi-
dent began in the war days when the
two were engaged in relief administra-
ton in Europe. Walcott was one of
Hoovers aides and the two lived to-
Eether much of the time.
At the Republican Convention in Chi
cago in 1920 this friendship took more
definite form. Walcott was among those
who exerted every effort to have that
convention nominate Hoover for the
presidency.

That there is a wealth Of good

large number of splendid dis

are the last dispatches to be

Mrs. Blanche Miller, 1920
Twenty-first st. N. W., sends this
dispatch:
"Up in the mountains, amid
ice and snow, the Italians and
the Austrians battle fiercely for
q lone point, the key position
to the South Europe battle
front.
Failing in direct attack, the
Italians bore under the peak to
blow it up, while AustrianS wait
anxiOusly, knowing they are
doomed unless time of explO-
sion can be learned.
"Fateful hour aScertained
through bravery of one Of Aus

5 entire company to evacuate
position just prior to explosion
and return in time to repulSe
final Italian advance, holding
position and saving entire

ger Of being swept to death

fought desperately to keep the
Italians from getting possession
of Mount COlIaltO, key posi-
tiOn of the battlefront, but
they seemed doomed as their
enemy undertook to dynamite
the peak by boring in at the
foot.
although the Italians had
captured the village at the
base Of the mountain, their
position is uSeleS unless they
possess the mountain and its
passes. Repeated assaults on
the peak having failed, dyna-
hitting is the only way of dis
lodging the AuStrianS."

seventeenth victory of the cam
paign when the Nationals face the
White Sox in the Sunday TusSling In
Comiskey Park.
Washington'S recruit hurler, one oil
the sensations of the majors this year,
also will be after his eighth straight
hill triumph.
Weaver has set for his goal in this
! campaign a mark that would excel
, the one made by Vernon Gomez last
year Then the Yankees young left
handler went through to record OF
81 wins against 9 defeats. record
| held remarkable for a pitcher in his
initial season as regular starter III

With his record Of 16 wins against 5
! defeats to date, the Nationals right
hand star has an excellent chance to
better Gomez's 1891 pace. The current
season has nearly two months to run
before it ends and in this stretch
Weaver should get into 10 or IL games.
! Continuing his fine pitching form, the
Washington recruit ought TO score
another half dozen wins.

days. With the Crica8o club going

the hill men. However, Johnny But
| Ter, coach in charge of the club while
Manager Lew Fonseca is out in the
wilds, looking for diamond talent, in
timated today that Pete Daglia might
get the call for the Sunday tilt.
Daglia is the big righthander-he
stands feet, inches and weighs 220
pounds-who scored his first big
league victory at the expense Of the
Nationals when he faced them as a re-
lief worker here in June. Since he
has done some good hurting, but with
such Wabbly club behind him has
not been particularly successful.
Daglia by the way, is a graduate of
the American Legion nine of his home
town, Napa, Calf. Sacramento of the
Coast League signed him in 1926, but
he was farmed to Twin Falls, Idaho,
and later pitched with Ogden. In 1927,
Daglia went to the Oakland Club where
he remained until the White Sox got
him last month.
A S a scout, Manager Fonseca digs up
"A a lot of material for the White
Sox Whether his finds are worth
anything nobody knows, however.
He has had an especially busy week
end by which he corraled a pair Of
pitchers. One, W. V. Chamberlain, was
grabbed right out of college ranks.
Chamberlain is a left-hander, who did
his hurting at St AnselTns. He is to
report within a day or two.
Grant Bowler, the big right-hander,
who had trial with the White Sox at
San Antonio last Spring, has been re-
| called from the Missions of the Pacific
| Coast Circuit. Bowler has done well
| in the minor circuit. He's due to re-
port any day.
The White Sox also have selected J.
s. Wilson, right hand pitcher, as their
| first pick of the Buffalo Club when the
time comes to exercise an option on
| that International outfits talent. Will
son, rangy hurler. has won eight and
lost six games for the Bisons this sea-
son.
Evening star., 1932-07-31

Rebuilding this White Sox club will
be difficult and those in charge are
picking up all material available.
LAD the Nationals managed to tie
i i the score in the ninth inning to-
day. some quick telegraphing to
American League headquarters right
here in town would have been necessary
to get a Washington catcher in line for
the last half of the round.
When Moe Berg yielded to Pinch
batter Dave Harris in the ninth, the
johnson band didn't have another eligi-
bic catcher at hand for Howard Maple
had been used as pinch-batter in the
seventh inning
1t was the second time within two
weeks that the Nationals were without
a reserve catcher, that is, one already
eligible for service.
Manager johnson explained after the
game today that had it been necessary
to go into the latter part of the ninth
he would have given Umpire-in- Chief
Owens a copy of the wire that would
have been sent to league headquarters
retiring to the ineligible list some
Washington player-the Nationals are
at the 23-player limit permissible under
American League law-and naming one
of the two coaches formerly catchers for
the eligible list. Then the coach named
would have gone behind the bat:
Eddie Ainsmith or Patsy Charity
would have been made eligible, but II
has been intimated by Washington
club officials that Ainsmith would be
the likely choice.
MONDAY the White Sox business
vi management will put on a special
laGies day. They want the South
Siders to get an eye full Of all the ex-
White Sox players now with the Ma
tionals. Too bad Reynolds can't be
here with Thomas, Kerr and Harris.
The Monday pitching for the Washing
ton club is to be started by AL Crowder
Bluege crashed the lineup today in
the eighth as pinch-runner for King
don, but Ossie may not go back to his
third-basing post regularly for another
day or two. Not only did he suffer with
the oppressive heat there also weaken
ed him and Manager Johnson decided
to rest him for several days.
Jack Hayes, who used to draw his
pay from the Washington club and was
a popular player with Capital fandom,
did all he could to beat his old outfit
in the series opener At second base,
he had 13 chances and handled all
without slip.
Carey Selph and Lu Blue were plain
poison to the Washington pitchers.
Carey cracked a double and a triple
to drive two runs across. while Lu
got two singles and a double to score
twice and send another score over.
Manush extended his hitting streak
for the trip to five games with a sin
gle in the first inning and another in
the eighth Heinie now has hit safely
in 81 of his last % games. Too bad
he couldn't connect in that Red Sox
game in Washington last Sunday
