Studebaker has seen to it that
Rockne rides like an expensive
car, not only on the straightaway
but on the turns.
It's balanced beautifully. Its
engine, its transmission, its clutch,
its brakes, its springs-all have the
feel of quality the instant you try
them.
You don't find upholstery like
ROckne's in other lOw.priced cars.
And by actual tape-line measure.
ment I've proved that the ROckne
sedan has the longest, widest,
rOOmiest body in its price class.
But words don't mean anything.
You get in a Rockne and drive it.
That's the only way to find out.
The Washington times., 1933-04-25

I'm warning you, you'll be as rabid
a ROcEne fan as I am once you've
tried ROckne. You'll agree with me
that ROckne is worth a lot more than
any car within $500 of its price.

COOLIDGE TRAITS

As the American people say fare.
well to eX-President Coolidge, they
will ponder on his unusual traits
II is difficult To look back in history
and find anyone like him There was
a unique tang of the soil in him. He
had a keen sense of propriety. so he
occupied the White House with all
due dignity. But he felt more at
home while whiting stick of
wood on the back doorstep of his
old Vermont farm house.
The achievements of his adminis-
tration were not particularly strik-
ing or sensational. Many people
thought he let things drift too much
You can not account for his high
place in popular esteem on account
of specific achievements as Presi-
dent. No great evils were abolished
through his administration.
Yet somehow the people had faith
In him. partly because he talked
their language and spoke their
thoughts. A native common sense
out of daily life shaped his acts.
When he talked increasingly about
economy and thrift, he repeated the
words of every prudent villager. If
the people had listened more to
these truths that seemed too COM
monplace then, they would have
fewer debts to pay now.
His self effacing modesty made
the people feel him one of them
selves. When he finished his term
as President. he returned for a time
to his simple old home on u quiet
Northampton street. with no more
pride or vainglory than if he had
been away selling groceries. 1t was
a characteristic touch, when he re-
marked a few months ago in a cam
paign address, when l was in
Washington. 1t might have been
thought he was down there as an
ordinary government clerk. Such
lack of self assertion is rare. Any
one else would have said, when
was President.
The people will miss him. miss his
dry sayings, and quaint incidents
out of his life will be told for many
years. Still more. they will miss
his sterling honesty and fhe immov-
able resolution that was the origi-
nal cause of his becoming President |
We need more like him in public
life.

YOTTH AND CnAPERONEs

Mrs. Franklin ID. Roosevelt, asking
in a recent address "if we are going
back to chaperones," spoke of the
former days when a young unmar-
ried woman was not supposed to go
out alone with young men. She
cOntrasted it with present days,
when the girls and boys roam
around with unlimited freedom.
The old time chaperOn did not
stop much deviltry. Young people
who desired forbidden fruit usually
found the tree of knOwledged of
good and evil without difficulty. The
girl of today, as Mrs. Roosevelt sug-
gests, has better opportunity TO
get well acquainted with her beaus.
However, the divorce records don't
show that she makes the best use of
that opportunity. 1t would not hurt
our peppy girls to take a bit more
advice.

HAS MILFORD GONE AHEAD2

AS we look back at the year 1882
in Milford, it can be asked what
has the community achieved within
that time? Most towns, looking back
at the past year, can not show any
great tangible advance. Not many
new industries. not many costly i'm
prOvements.
But if we have been able to or
ganize our forces better for prog
ress, if our people are working to-
gether in civic causes more effec-
lively than they were a year ago,
il the organizations have been able
to interest people in the needs of
the community, if these associations
have provided agreeable social life
and educational features, if there is
a loyal affection for the
then we can say that
progress has been made i'm the year
Oward better future.

COOLIDGE'S CAREER

Tributes to the personality of CAL
win Coolidge rise from every quarter
of the land, regardless of political
association. Something in this quiet
man out of the granite hills of Ver-
mont made a profound appeal. Yet
he lacked certain qualities of gra-
cious suavity through which men
ordinarily rise in politics. Some
said he had a forbidding exterior.
What were the qualities that en-
abled him to reach to this high pin
nacle, in spite of handicaps?
He had an amazingly keen politi-
cal sense. A quiet man, his mouth
was usually closed, but his eyes and
ears were open very wide. He orig
mated from the common people, he
knew their struggles, and could
guess what they would say. He
made few political mistakes.
He was always reading, always
learning. Issues might seem new
and unfamiliar to most people, but
he had travelled all around them,
looking at them from all sides. He
had a passion for the facts on which
good judgment is based. He had |
strong faith in the power of natural |
forces to work out solutions of prob
lens. Some say he was too often in
active in the face of such problems.
But as many doctors will say that
the power that cures their patients
is primarily the forces of nature,
and that medicines are secondary,
so Mr.. Coolidge did not believe in
overdosing the country with reme-
dies.
His career shows the value of pro-
lOnged political experience. City
councilman, city solicitor. city clerk,
representatives to the legislature,
mayor, state senator. lieutenant
governor. governor, viee-president, !
president. Every job prepared him
for the one next up. Young men

REYMOND HILLIES
 TOO STRONG FOR
 WATERBURY A.C.
Billy McC COrmick Registers s to 2 Victory at Wash ingtOn Park-Edmonds Fails to Show

Before one of the largest crowds to witness a twilight game at Washington Park this season, the Reymond Hillies trimmed the Wa Tterbury A. c. g to 2 last night. The fans turned out to see Frankie Ed monds, star colored twirler of the Naugatuck High school, who was slated to hurl for the losers, but according to Manager Clark Cooke the colored lad was working and unable to put in his appearance.
 Billy Mccormick took the mound for the Hillies and was op- posed by Gordon Whitaker who twirled fairly good ball, but poor support by his mates in the infield enabled the winners to score fre- 'quently and roll up lead that the Cookemen could not overcome.
 Mccormick allowed but five hits and only in one inning did the losers score, that being in the third when successive singles by Moriarty and Whitaker combined with @ sacrifice hit and an infield out enabled the Waterbury team to score their only runs of the game. Charley Moore and Ray ozen did the heavy hitting for the winners, both getting two hits apiece, while the fielding of Joe endricks in left field, also stood out for the Hillies.
 The box score:

Jeby never had a chance. The 14,0O0 fans at the Polo grounds sensed this as soon as the first ses- sion of their scheduled Hereunder was under way. His defense was game, but pathetically futile.
 Had Jeby Punch Drunk
 From the opening gong, the southpaw from Worcester, Mass, chopped away mercilessly-right jab to the face; left hook to the stomach, right hook to the kidney and left hook to the jaw.
 His continuous barrage had Jeby punch-drunk and staggering in the sixth round. The bell delayed the knockout until the seventh when Brouillard ripped blow after blow into an almost helpless op- ponent. A short left hook to the jaw floored the champion. He the count of nine but toppled over by Referee Pete Hartley after 2:21.
 Second Title
 s Thus did Brpuillard, at the age Of 22, complete 6 comeback cam paign which enabled him to gain the second world title of his career. He held and lost the well terweight crown at the age of 20.
 Brouillard's mastcrly perform ance last night, coupled with his recent victory over Mickey Walker, indicates he will be worthy suc- cessor to such great 160-pound champions as Bob Fitzsimmons, Kid Mccoy Stanley Ketchel and Tiger Flowers. He probably will be matched shortly with Gorilla Jones, the N. B. A. champion to determine an undisputed title- holder.
 Experts Favored Lou
 Most of the experts gave Brouil- lard a clean sweep of the six rounds preceding the knockout. Jeby failed to get more than half dozen clean shots.
 Brouillard weighed 158k pounds and Jeby 159. The New York state athletic commission rocog- niZed Jeby as champion last year in an elimination series when he scored a technical knockout over Frank Battaglia of Canada.
