Pacing the flight of the Blue
Eagle across the country. Elmer
Smith, one of Americas most am
bilious young fliers, has Just re-
turned from a tour that gave her
an aerial view of the NRA.
Miss Smith piloted her ship
from the southernmost point of
the United States to the Far West.
She had flown this route before,
and had looked down on smoke

deserted airports and the bleak
evidences of the idle.
Countrywide Activity
But this time she looked down
on countrywide activity. Smoke
told a sky-Writing story of reviv-
ing factories; there was life in
the fields and every airport told
a story of the travellers return
What chiefly impressed Miss
Smith, she said, was the mental
state of the country.
'It didn't seem possible when
1 first realized that the Presi-
dent had evolved a plan that
was actually meeting with ma

turbance simply meant to me
that people were throwing their
hats in the air at the mention

'The immediate, national re-
action to this movement is un-

Miss Smith reports, are ready to
help, but because they are not
properly instructed in the mean

to lean over backwards. The

Education is needed. There
is great danger that ignorance
may lead to bOycOtting that is

 New York. April 8 = (UP) - Saturday being our go-way-out-on- a-limb day we herewith name the United States Davis cup team for 1893: v Singles - Henry Ellsworth Vines and Wilmer Allison.
 Doubles - George Martin (Hal-
 lelujah! I'm not a tennis bump Lott and John Van Ryn.
 Mind you, we are naming the team that will go abroad and not the team which will do the early American zone sparring bouts. We would not be surprised to see Cliff Sutter, Frank Shields, and possibly Greg Mangin, utilized in pumping
 off Mexico, Cuba, Canada and the nudge-over outfit South America
 sends up. But when the boys sail for the continent - and the men who go are the real Davis cup
 team = the four gentlemen named
 above will be the passengers. Howinell, you ask, do we know the makeup of the team some four
 months in advance? The answer Is a. loud and emphatic - we don't! We're guessing. But it's a pretty
 safe guess. Certainly it's safer than those some of the experts are giving off in regard to the major league races. The very fact that
 Brooklyn has to be considered in making a baseball guess, makes
 that hazardous undertaking in-
 deed. For who can guess the daf- finess boys?
 We used no guesswork in nomi- mating Vines and Allison for sin- gles. Unless they develop house.
 maids knee, croup, chicken pox or
 tennis elbow they're in. Which is
 where they oughta be, being as
 both proved their cup ability last year. With Vines and Allison talk ing care of the singles. the only
 item left is the doubles team. There is little chance that the selection committee will use Alli- son and Van Ryn as they did in 1892, for the committee wants AL lison to concentrate on singles alone. And can you name Q more
 likely candidate for Allison's double job than Lott? No. you Cdu L, IOT 5cOIBep ucbpiLc uiS Wy
 generation as 8 singles player, still
 remains the finest doubles man in
 the game. He knows all the an-
 swers in the tandem business and
 has the strokes to back this knowl- edge up.
 Van Ryn is little less effective in
 doubles than Lott. While the two
 men never have played much to-
 gether, and teamwork is the basis of a successful doubles outfit, we
 believe they will click with little practice, because they complement
 each other. Van Ryn is cool. sure.
 steady, refusing to grow ruffled no matter how tough the going.
 Lott. unsurpassed as a volleyer. is
 fiery, brilliant, daring.
 In addition, both Lott and Van | Ryn are veterans of Davis cup
 competition abroad. The climate and crowds of the continental
 matches are lifted by experienced
 men, and not by men who must not
 only whip Cochet and Borotra, but | themselves as well.

That locks like a chance to wir yourself a piece of headgear Mister Terry can be reached al the Polo Grounds today. He will be there off and on all summer. the chances are.
 Pitching Stan Shot
 Terry and the rejiggcred Giants actually are starting from scratch The pitching staff is shot. More punch at the plate is needed. The 1nfield is a question mark at sec 0nd and short where q strong combination is vitalIy essential Critz folded up last year and Jack son was out with a collaDsible knee.
 Terry has been inspecting a whole flock of recruits and come. back guys. With a schedule of 37 exhibition games, he will have plenty of opportunities to see all his ivory at work.
 Pitchers he needs most of all. The regulars are Hubbell, Fitz- sfmmoris, Bell. Luque and Schu- 1naclier. Glenn Spencer was added in trade with the Pirates Ray Starr was taken from the Car dinaIs, There are two Grade A performers in that bevy, Hubbell and Fitz. Starr still must be rated as promising.
 Youngsters Tn Camp
 Three young men from Winston . Salem are nyrgitshrdluetaoins Salem are trying to make inc grade. Mapp. Salveson and smith Just how the jump from the Pled- mont league to the National will affect their pitching percentages remains to be seen. .,
 Two comebackers arc Blil Shores, former Athletics hurlcr, rescued from Portland, and Lc- Roy Parmalee, from the Columbus farm. Ofhand. 1t appears Terry needs three more good pitchers before he can hope for the hrst division.
 If Travis Jackson's trick knee does hold together, the whole team will have better appear ance. Critz must put on the pres sure at second or go. Terry Will play first and VergeZ third.
 The infield candidates are more numerous than able. oddly. the best looking inficlder Is Terrys own understudy. Sam LesIle. Others are Blondy Ryan, bought from Buffalo; Art McLarney. who was kept around last year without showing much; Roe Malay. from Winston Salem: John Laborne, also from Winston-Salem; Jim Byrne. from Dallas, and Gilbert English. who hit .225 in 49 games with the Giants last year.
 OutheId Is Set
 The outfeld is fairly well set. eX- cept for reserves. The first line will be Mel Ott, the capable George Davis from the Phils and probably Joe Moore, the latter youngster who hit .304 in 86 games with the Giants in 1892. Koeneckc, who hop- ped last year, has been recalled from Jersey City; Homer Peel has been drafted from Houston for an- other big league trial. and Wins ton-Salem has sent two asplrants in Joe Martin and Henry Lieber.
