Fans Are Thrilled

The best is none to good
for Edgar Charles. Since he
has been wearing Washington
uniform which he donned back
in 1915, the best has been none
too good for the hundreds Of
thousands Of fans who have
cheered his efforts, and what
ever the Optimists decide to
stage to show Sam the appre-
ciation of this city, should have
the cooperation and support
Of fandom as a whole.
In years gone, the District
of Columbia has taken oppor-
tunity to pay especial tribute
at the ball park to three out
standing Washington players,
Walter Johnson, Joe Judge and
Muddy Ruel, the latter shortly
after he had been sold to the
Boston Red Sox.
AS the Joe Judge Day was
being perfected, dozens of fans
suggested to this observer that
Rice was being overlooked and
while many thought a Judge
Rice Day might have answered
the desire of the fans to pay
homage at the feet of two
of their baseball idols, it was
the thought of the committee
that if a joint hour we're
accorded the two veterans, one
or the other might forego his
full measure of adlllation.
It was tentatively agreed that
Rice would come the year next
after Judge, but the sudden
leaving of Ruel made it impera-
tive that he have his day in
1881 and so 1882 brings us up
to Sam Rice, none the less ad-
mired and respected than sew
eral years ago when fans by
the thousands wanted to
couple his honor with that of
Joe Judge.

BURKE FACES
YANKS TODAY
IN FINAL
By GARRETT WATERS

Your Uncle Clark Griffith was
in another of his jovial moods
after yesterdays game, in which
the Griffs Socked the Yanks to
the tune of 10 to 3. And why
shouldn't he feel swell, with his
team playing so we'll right now?
Griff had a few interesting
words to say about Manager John.
sons gang in an impromptu CAB
fest. Some of his talk went this
way:
"The recent play of our team
has not been entirely. brilliant.
But it has been quite gratifying.
This is because every member
has plugged away and Striven
toward success regardless of the
opposition"
In palmer words, Griff feels
that the drive of his team at the
present moment is good for many
triumphs to come. Also his words
bring out the thought that Man.
ager Johnson's men are not play
ing over their heads, but are per.
forming in a range that promises
to become more difficult to beat
as the season progresses.
eff the boys were in too
much of q sensational spurt,
meaning if the pitchers were
hurting too brilliantly and the
rest of the gang were hitting
too heavily, you could feel that
some sort of q halt was in
store," commented Griff. But
with everybody playing the
plugging away" type Of ball
to my way Of thinking every
thing points to a continuation
of our success in the future
with a possible pennant as the
reward"
An. interesting sidelight goes
along with these views of Griff's.
Before the start of the season
Manager Johnson's men faced the
important situation of defeating
the AS and Yankees if a COM
Portable position was to be had
during these early days. of the
schedule.
The GriffS have mastered this
situation by winning from both
the AS and Yanks to date, bring
ing out reasons whey they are in
first place today, even though
not by the widest of margins.
Yanks Again Today
The Griffs engage the Yanks
today in the final of the current
series. Manager johnson stated
this morning that he planned to
stick to Bobby Burke as his pitch
ing selection, announced yester-
day.
Bobby will be making his Sec
ond official start of the season
when he stalks to the mound. In
his first appearance, he beat the
Boston Red Sox, it will be re-
membered, and he aided his own
cause by supplying the hit which
won in ninth-inning rally,
to 3.
Lefty Herb Pennock no doubt
will be the Yankee hurler. This
veteran defeated the Griffs in
New York last week, but may run
into real trouble this afternoon
if Manager Johnson's men are
in the same hitting mood as they
were yesterday when Lefty
Gomez was defeated.
The Griffs will be out to annex
their sixth straight triumph. A
victory will also mean a clean
sweep of the series.

Hot cross buns, the eating of
 which is one of the ceremonies of Good Friday, were first baked as part of the spring festival for the goddess Eostre, whose pagan name has clung to the season. The heathen cakes have never been dropped from the regular routine of the feasting, either. Dozens of early clergy tried to stop the more or less ceremonial indulgence in them. They prohibited them. But nothing happened about it. So they had them marked with the cross and took them over.
 The delights of children, and or most grown-ups-eating cakes and kindling bonfires-are actually the two oldest methods of celebrating in the world They go back to the time that the regular set of gods and goddesses were just in the process of being established Most every group seems to have started off with sun-god who was wor- shiped by fires and lights and with a kind of goodness of plenty or earth deity. queen of Heaven. This last lady was worshiped with cakes i mold China, in ancient Mexico, in early Britain and in northern Europe.

STUFFED LAMB SHOULDER

Many people t..1iiiIiS the meat of a shoulder of lamb is just as tender and quite as delicious in fla vor as the leg or any other part. The shoulder is not so easy to carve as the leg, owing to the irregular shape and central position of the shoulder blade. This difficulty about carving is easily met, says the bu- reau of economics. Select a shoul- der of lamb weighing from to 4 pounds. Have the butcher remove all the bones, as well as the fell, or outer papery covering of skin. The bones may be saved for making soup The shoulder may then be stuffed, and either left flat or rolled, and the pocket holds twice as much stuffing Either of these complete ly boned stuffed shoulders can be carved straight through in attrac- tive slices of part meat and part stuffing.
 Wipe the meat with damp cloth. Sprinkle the inside of the pocket with salt and pepper, pile the hot stuffing in lightly. and sew the edges together. Rub salt, pepper and flour over the outside. If the shoulder has only a very thin fat covering, lay several strips of bacon over the top. Place the roast on a rack in an open pan without wa- ter Scar for 30 minutes in a hot oven (480 degrees Fahrenheit), If bacon is laid over the roast, short en the time of soaring so as to avoid overbrowning. Reduce the temperature of the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, and cook the meat at this temperature until tender. From 2ih to hours will be required to cook medium sized stuffed shoulder at these oven tenn peratures. Serve hot with brown gravy.

ROAST HAM FOR EASTER

The following directions for cooking a fresh ham are given by the bureau of home economies:
 Wipe the ham with a damp cloth and leave the rind on The ham will cook more quickly and shrink less when the rind is not removed. Sprinkle the surface of the meat with salt and pepper and rub with flour. Place the ham, rind side up, on rack in an open roasting pan, without water. Make a small in cision through the rind with a sharp knife or steel skewer, cut short gashes around it with scissors. and insert a rcast-eat thermometer through the opening so that it's bulb reaches the center of the fleshiest portion of the ham.
 Place the pan containing the ham in hot oven (480 degrees Fahren- heit) and scar for about 20 min utes. Then reduce the oven tenn perature rapidly to very moderate heat (3O0 degrees to 325 degrees) and continue until the roast meat thermometer in the ham registers 182 degrees. Between 25 and 30 minutes per pound will probably be required when these oven tenn peratures are used Do not add water and do not cover the meat during the roasting.
 When the ham Is done remove 1t from the oven and carefully take off the rind. To remove the rind easily break through it on the fleshy side at the hook, then turn the ham over and lift the rind off in one piece With a sharp knife score the fat covering in squares. Stick long g-stemmed cloves into the intersections and sprinkle with brown sugar over the fat surface. Return to a moderately hot oven (375 degrees Fahrenheit) to brown over the top. Serve hot or cold.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-03-25
THERMOMETER USEFUL IN
 ROASTING HAM

As in cooking other roast meats, the use of a thermometer when roasting a fresh ham removes the gilesswork. This is particularly inn portant in the case of pork, which should always be served well-done. Thorough cooking is necessary, be- cause pork sometimes contains the tricfina parasite, which, if not de- strcyed, may cause illness. Since this organism is killed when heat ed to 137 degrees Fahrenheit, there is ample margin of safety when pork is cooked to the well-done stage, 182 degrees Fahrenheit.
 Savory Brown Gravy
 Remove excess fat from the pan drippings. Mix two tablespoonfulS of flour with the drippings ramain- ing in the pan. add one and one half to two cupfuls of cold water

Custom of
 Egg Rolling

Washington children were the first to play at rolling eggs, but there is no chronicle which sets forth when and how the pastime came to be. The first reference to egg-rolEng which has been found occurs in the Evening Star of Eas- ter Monday, 1874, and that refer ence is that the custom of rolling eggs at the capitol was then an old one When Washington was young the small, fenced park about the capitol was the only one in Washington improved with turf trees and flowers. It was the habit of school children to have an Easter picnic, and with their teachers and their baskets of lunch they would go to the Capitol Park. At the west front of the capitol were steep sodded terraces. In sitting at the top of these terraces and eating their lunches, of which dyed Easter eggs formed part, some child or children discovered that the colored eggs would roll down the terraces. In that way the custom started and became part of the Easter festi- val in Washington. When the incl dent of 1874 occurred there were several thousand children rolling eggs down the sodded banks. Con gress in 1875, noting that because of the Easter egg-rolling it was hard to keep grass on the terraces, forbade the practice, but egg-roll- ing festivities were observed in 1876 and 1877 just the same On Easter Monday, 1878, the children were turned away from the capitol grounds. The word passed from child to child, and the march to the White House was taken up

HOME LOAN BILL
FACES FIGHT

Home loan banking and cur

single bill, awaited action today in
the Senate.
The full force of the Hoover
Administration was eXerted to
win final passage of the measure
setting up a system of home
loan banks.
Senator Watson Of Indiana. the
Republican leader, sought to
shake off the Glass currency ex-
pansion bill offered by Senator
Borah (RD of Idano as rider
to the banking measure.
AS a econd parliamentary
stroke, Watson planned to force
consideration of the vote by
which the Couzens substitute to
the banking bill was adopted.
Calls For New Banks
The bill, approved by the House
and favorably reported to the
Senate, calls for a new group of
banks to discount first mortgages
held by building and loan asso.
Citations and other agencies.
The Couzens substitute would
set up home loan division in
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, with a maximum OF
$40O, 100000 available for first.
mortgage loans.
A substitute to the Glass cur
rency expansion bill, offered by
Senator Blaine (R) of Wiscon-
sin added to the legislative tangle.
Would Circulate Bonds
Under the Glass proposal. Gov
ernment bonds bearing 33s pei
cent interest or less, and held by
national banks. would be given
circulating privileges. This would
allow maximum issuance of
about $1,000, 0,000,0 900 in new ma.
tional bank notes.
Blaine sought to bring about
an expansion of $1,500,OOO, 900 in
Federal Reserve Bank notes. with
Governmen9 bonds as security.
Under both measures the cir.
culating privilege would be with
drawn after five years.
