Spartan gridsters last night uncov-
cred points of both strength and
weakness in their offense.
Though the men were working
hard, and seemed to know the plays
well, from all appearances there is
still a LOT OF polishing up to be done
before these plays will prove effect

equipped opponents.
Enthusiasm and the will to win
make up for a good deal of the in

evident in the first games of the
season. however, and the team has
two more practice sessions to i'm
prove their blocking, chief milestone
around their neckS.
One new pass play and two new
running plays were added last night,
and all the old plays. laterals, and
runs, and off-tackle attacks, came
in for their share of punishment.

LISTS
4,473 To STAY
On RELIEF
City to Care for "UnempIoy-
abIes";; Total Receiving Aid
Takes Sharp Drop

There are 4,473 unemployables
on the District relief rolls, Elwood
Street, director of Public Welfare,
revealed today.
These persons will have to be
taken care of by the municipality
long after the new works program
gets underway and other persons
now carried on the rolls are placed
in jobs.
also Cases Dropped
Expenditures in the District last
month were $163,503 less than in
May, Mr.. Street said, the princi-
pal saving being affected through
dropping 2,780 cases from the
rolls and through REINFORCEMENT
bringing about change in the
status of cases.
The May survey showed a total
of 20,482 cases of relief with the
Public Assistance Division here.
This number was cut to 17,702
and the relief expenditures sliced
approximately 20 per cent.
AS the relief program gets under
way fully, Mr.. Street said, efforts
will be made to place all persons
involved, except the unemploy-
ables, in jobs. These jobs will be
financed through Federal funds
while the District will continue
caring for the unemployables.
Office is Moved
Miss Alice Hill, director of the
Public Assistance Division, said
today the Georgetown regional Of
flee had been moved to the old
Washington Ear, Eye and Throat
Hospital, $500 block Pennsylvania
Ave. NV, from the 1900 block
Pennsylvania Ave. NV.
A decline of 3.3 per cent, ap-
proximating 249,897 persons, in
40 cities, and slash of Sc per
cent in the relief cost was shown
in the last months relief rolls,
when compared with the May
rolls, Federal Relief Administrator
Hopkins announced today.
The savings was brought about
through a decrease in demands for
fuel and clothing and a smaller
number of relief payment days in
June, which had four pay days
while May had five.
