FINE WORK, HILL

A word of commendation is due Ralph
n Hill. the American youth, defeated
in the 5,000-meter race at Los Angeles
yesterday, for his good sportsmanship
in refusing to protest an alleged foul
committed by Finnish opponent, Lauri
Lehtinen.
Reports of their race assert the foul
was committed close to the end when the
Finn stepped over into the path occu-
pied by the American lad The action
brought forth 'boos" from the $4,000
spectators watching the race.
That little exhibition is deserving of
condemnation as much as Hills action
is of commendation. Those folks in the
grandstand, somewhat removed from the
actual scene of the alleged foul, knew
nothing of the circumstances surround
ing it, made no effort to ascertain
whether the Finn's foul was intentional
or unintentional, or indeed if any foul
had been committed. Hill himself not
only declined to make protest but even
refused to express an opinion as to
whether or not he believed there had
been a foul.
Such an attitude is craftsmanship in
the finest degree and might we'll be taken
Finnish lad was not merely competitor,
he was guest of the United States while
he is in this country "Booing" him was
mighty poor courtesy, to say the least.
But it is ever thus. Spectators at ath-
letic events are VIGOROUSLY unfair. Box
ers, for instance, are frequently the tar
gets for the nastiest expressions from
those attending boxing matches, based
on favoritism for the other man, or on
prejudices because of race, color or some
similar trivial condition. Boxers them
selves are uniformly sportsmen, and we
mean professional boxers. Once in a
great while there is one who has a dis
torted idea of craftsmanship, but gen.
orally speaking they whale each other,
shake hands at the end, the victor says
a good word to the loser and the latter
returns the compliment in kind. But
the spectator - he usually develops
spasms for no reason at all.
Hill will not go in the records as
winner, but he will be known as fair
sportsman.

UNCLE WIGGILY'S FUNNY
ISLAND

Uncle Wiggily's sail boat, in
which he was giving Lulu, Jimmie
and Alice Wibblewobble a ride
across the duck pond ocean, had
come to a sudden stop as told you
in the story last night. The three
duck children were quite excited
and even Uncle Wiggily himself
did not know just what had hap
pened.
Jimmie, the boy duck, who
wanted to be cast away on a desert
island, SO he might learn to be a
pirate, was the most excited of all.
He waddled about the wash tub
ship and quacked:
I'm sure we're shipWreekedl I
know we ran on some kind of an
island. Hurray!"
Did we, Uncle Wiggily?p asked
Alice, who was very timid duck
and fond of poetry.

didn't say pirates were good to eat,
SO there, Jimmie Wibblewobble. ~
Hush, my dears! Hush!" begged
Uncle Wiggily. I'VE came out on a
/! pleasure sail and now, it seems, we
are shipwrecked on funny island.
The thing to do is to go ashore and
see what sort of a place it is
"And look fur pirates' quacked
Jimmie.
And something to eat" added
Lulu.
Il see a lot of green weeds and
bushes and things like that. spoke
Alice, 80 maybe we can find some
thing good for ducks to eat.'
Wen see," said Uncle Wiggily
as he helped the three duck chill
dren out of the wash tub ship and
upon the island where they had
| come to such sudden stop Truly
it was a green island, about as
large as, perhaps, four wash tubs,
and there were little bushes grow
ing on it.
ITS the funniest little island
ever saw" said Uncle Wiggily. "It
will not take us long to. walk all
around it,"
"Oh, see some duck weedl" sud-
denly quacked Alice and she and
her sister began to eat this, while
Jimmie waddled about looking for
pirate. But the duck boy found
none, neither did he find any gold
or jewels. Uncle Wiggily was look
ing at the island, wondering how
he could get his ship off it and go
sailing again when, all of a sud-
den, the island began to move. II
shook, trembled and then began to
go down.
"Oh, the island is sinkingl" cried
Jimmie.
"Quickl" shouted Uncle Wiggiy.
Into my ship and well be safe"
Just as they all climbed aboard
the wash tub boat the island sank
low in the water and then floated
away. And out from beneath the
queer little patch of weeds and
bushes slowly swan a great, big
circus hippopotamus This jolly,
clumsy creature, with a mouth as
big as two dispans, looked at Uncle
Wiggily, blinked and said:
II didn't know you were on my
back or 1 wouldn't have gone down
so suddenly"
eve weren't on your back, we
were on funny island said Lulu
But that island was on my
back" said the Hippo. you see,
l was swimming around under
water as I often do, and when
rose 1 came up under this little
island and floated away with it On
my back. Your ship bumped into
me, but I didn't mind just Went
to sleep and when 1 awakened I
forgot you were on my back island
and I sank down. It's lucky you
had your ship with you, Uncle Wig
gily, though would have floated
you to shore before you got your
feet wet"
Eyes, I'm glad, Hippo, that had
my ship" said the bunny. Then
he and the ducks had a fine sail
and the Hippo went to sleep again.
So everything came out all right,

COPYCAT

MOSSOLlNI has been reading cold lit
IVA erature". Not ancient literature as
the term is usually applied, but some
thing little more modern, yet far
enough in the past for many to forget.
In an article published this week in
the Popolo d'Italia at Milan, II Duce is
quoted as making the following remarks
pertaining to war.
Only war brings human energies to
their full force, placing the seal of no.
bility on people who have the courage to
face it,
THAT is something entirely foreign to
the American outlook ON peace and war"
those who read of the strong mans
statement may well exclaim. Perhaps
it is, just now, but once there was a
prominent American who expressed eX-
actly the same sentiments. He was not
only a prominent American but many
considered him the foremost Ameri-
cam, not only of his time but of all
other times.
In an address before the Naval War
College at Newport on June 2, 1897, this
foremost American" declaimed as fol-
lows:
mo triumph of peace is quite so great
as the supreme triumphs of war. The
courage of the soldier, the courage of the
statesman who has to meet storms which
can be quelled only by soldierly virtues
this stands higher than any quality
called out merely in time of peace. Peace
is a goddess only when she comes with
a sword girt on her thigh. Diplomacy
is utterly useless where there is no force
behind it; the diplomat is the servant
not the master of the soldier"
Quite similar in thought are the two
quotations, although they are separated
by 35 years. They are similar enough
to make one think that Benito has been
playing 'copycat" and is guilty of plag
iarism.
If his speech has disturbed any Am
orleans they ned not feel unduly alarmed
by it. He may have just been quoting
our own American exponent of war.
Who was it? We nearly forgot. 1t was
the same man who later won the Nobel
Peace Prize Theodore (The FirsD
Roosevelt.
