DRIVERS BETTER TODAY
"The majority of drivers on
any highway today are better
than the best racing drivers
of rs years ago. Although the
cars are faster, the tracks are
better but they still retain
numerous hazards that test
the driving skill of any en-
trant.
"The majority of school boys
today know more about auto
mobiles than the racing drivers
of a quarter of a century ago.
In my talks throughout the
country, 1 find the younger
generation well posted on
racing and automobile con-
structi0n.
Automobile racing has made
possible the general cOnstruc-
tfOn Of the pleasure car of to-
day."
During his racing career, De
Palma never has been in a
wreck in which his car caught
fire. Why? He smiled:
"Tve been luck that way"

Observers employed by news
papers are said to be charged
with the duty of instructing the
public in the subject of the true
worth of intercollegiate ath-
letics as part of college expert
ence and in the fundamentals Of
good craftsmanship.
Beacon of Hope
With these thoughts in mind,
this observer desires to point out
that, IN the whirl of contradic-
tions known as intercollegiate
football, the Georgetown Mary
land gridiron contest, scheduled
for November "a, 1884, stands out
as a beacon Of hope to all who
would preserve the greatest Of
all academic games--football.
The booking of this important
and desirable game reflects hon
est endeavor by officials of the
two universities to maintain and
exalt the dignity and honor Of
the two schools rather than the
prestige of athletic teams.
Honest effort by collegiate ath-
letic officials is a rarity in these
days when the cynical accept in
stitutional friendship as some
thing around which to build wise
cracks. &'*
While it is difficult for some
to escape the conviction that
the booking of the G. U.-Mary-
land contest is a blow aimed at
the supremacy in local football
of the George Washington Uni
versity, it is only just to observe
that the game probably was ar
ranged on basis entirely foreign
to such a thought.

ABSENT
FROM 6, v,

The status of Hal Kiesel, prom
inent local basketball player, was
clarified today by Ted OLeary
basketball coach at George Wash
ington University.
Kiesel, after engaging in a prac-
tice session with the ColonialS a
week or so ago, was reported as a
new addition to the squad. The
lad has since failed to practice
with Coach Ted OLeary's men
and his name does not appear on
the schools February enrolment
Coach OLeary says:
"KieSel is not a member of the
George Washington team as far
as I know. And Pm firmly con-
Vinced that he never will be. /
understand he's a star member
of the ShOll'S team. 1 believe
he'll continue with that team as
1t would be inadvisable for him
to jump to George Washington
when SO little is left Of the sea-
son. Anyway, Bill NOOnan is our
regular center"
Midyear examination marks will
be known tomorrow and O'Leary
breads the results. He could not
say which, if any, of his players
would be affected. Yet it was
noised around the school that
"Tuffy" Leemans, Sammy Stein
and Jimmy Smith may fall vic
Tins to the academic ak.

CARDOZO QU|NT
BEATSDUNBAR

snatching victory in the last 30
seconds of play, Cardozo High
School won the first game of the
colored city scholastic basketball
championship series from Dunbar
High 19 to II yesterday.
The contest was a thriller from
start to finish with the score a
nip and tuck affair throughout.
At the end of the half Dunbar led
the Clerks II to Z. 1t was at the
close of the contest with the count
17-all that Marshall with a diff
cult shot sent the ball through the
oval for two points and victory for
his teammates.

should be, a rallying point fol
students, faculty and alumni oi
University of Maryland, and fol
students, faculty and alumni OF
Georgetown University. It is the
most natural thing in the world
to bring together as understand
ing friends these two universities
whose friendship and understand
ing should be traditional rather
than new.
The year. 1884, which marked
the founding of the State of
Maryland, also marked the begin.
ming of Georgetown. It is only
fitting that the Maryland George
town grid game should be one
of the main features Of the elab.
crate program to celebrate the
third century of the founding
of the Old Line State, for Jesuits,
who founded Georgetown, played
a most important part in the
founding of the State Of Mary
land.
Might Revive Rivalries
If this observer has not misin.
terpreted tn ideas of alumni OF
both universities, the booking OF
the Georgetown-Maryland game
is accepted in the light Of some.
thing opening up great possibili.
ties to traditional rivals of the
South Atlantic area.
It appears to be the hope and
the desire of older alumni of all
colleges and universities of the
South Atlantic that the booking
of the Georgetown-Maryland game
is the first step in a far reaching
movement which will revive tradi-
tional rivalries and which will
make friendship and understand
ing the basis upon which to build
intercollegiate contests.

His bowling in the Masonic

The 173 puts into discard the

420 of Ben Hare.
Man of Hour
Dwight Smith was the man of

Symthe's 120 game and McAu-

Bunched Tighter
In the Methodist Protestant

To G. j.
By SID KATZNELL

Three other outstanding local
high school basketers are headed
for Georgetown University, it was
learned today. They are Harry
Bassin, Eastern's high scoring
southpaw forward; Buddy Nau,
Centrals all-high candidate, and
Bill Burke, former Central High
sharpShooter, who played with
George Washington Freshman for
short time, but, according to
reports, has resigned from the Co
lonial institution.
Tommy Nolan will also matricu-
late to Georgetown, as previously
announced. Nolan at present cap
tains Eastern's crack quint.
C.. U. to Get Tom Davis
Catholic University will get
Tom Davis, EaStern'S towering
center, according to reports.
Coming down the stretch in
the public high school champion
ship basketball series Eastern and
Central are to be found fighting
every inch OF the way for the lead.
Each team has copped four games
and dropped one.
Since Eastern is idle, Central
can grab possession of the top
berth by winning from Roosevelt
in, the second game of the double
header booked today in the Tech
High gymnasium.
Western will endeavor to break
into the win column against a
crippled Tech quint in the first
contest. Western has five losses
chalked up against it's record. In
fact, Western has not won a
series game in Is starts.
KeySer to Pl:
"Bits" Keyser is expected to
be. at his customary center posi-
tion for Central today. Keyser
was out last week with an injured
finger.

tain, is practically recovered from
injuries and says he is in
excellent condition for today's
game, while Jimmy Corcoran.

with the record of 272.46 miles

last February:

bell will do 300 miles per hour.
"I'm going to participate in
the Indianapolis classic next
May 80 and may take part in

Los Angeles on February e."
Thrilled Millions
The veteran of the racing sport,
who has thrilled millions with
daring feats while seated behind
the steering gear of a speed ma
chine, smiled as recalled the ex-
periences of half his life spent
on the race track. When does
he propose to retire from the
racing game? He replied:
"NOt until the boys start
running over me. 1 believe
automobile racing is the most
thrilling and the most exhiIa-
rating sport / know. / still be-
Heve racing is serving definite
purpose toward perfection of

The NRA has abandoned hope
of drafting a general shipping
code acceptable to other depart

attempt to write several divisional
codes to regulate separate phases
of the industry. Administrator
Johnson said yesterday the gen.
eral code had been assailed by the
State Department as violative or
likely to endanger treaty relations
and the Department of Agriculture
had opposed it as likely to lower
grain prices to the farmers.
