ing tomorrow until every player
in the squad of approximately so
know his own assignment and
most of the others to the pro-
verbal ct" I have had the men
copy minutely each play in their
notebooks for study between
workouts and at night before bed
time.
Only through this intense ap-
plication of thought can the Co.
lonial squad cope with its we'll
drilled 1885 opponents. I want
every player to be able to state
without hesitation exactly what
are his duties on any play in
dicated by number or figure when
called on.
Ask Radon Questions
Players will be asked at ran
dom what the blocking halfback
does or wha' the strong-side
guard does on a given play. Less
than a perfect answer will be
complete failure as far as I am
concerned. However, I am not
anticipating failures. This 1885
G. w. guard seems willing to learn
and eager for actor.
During the time remaining be-
fore the opening game with
Emory and Henry, we coaches
will strive to get perfection in
a few simple plays rather than
many. There will be time suffi.
cient thereafter for the squad to
learn the intricate plays. Per
lection in execution of the funa-
mental l-aneuver on attack, for
instance, ill pay off big divi-
dendS when the time comes to
attempt the more complicated
plays.
Daily Scrimmages
In the meantime scrimmage
will be held every afternoon
here, this hardest of practice
running FROM 30 minutes to two
hours. depending on how much
time is left after group drills
on individual assignments.
Some of our boys do not need
much scrimmaging, having got
ten down tn a fine ec- in con-
dition an requiring on a little
running, passing, ETC., to keep
physically fit. All, however, must
pay attention to every bit Of
instruction if the mastery of
detail, which is essential to a
winning team in major competi-
tion, is to be achieved.

Washington Pros To
Play Reading Keys

The Washington Pros are ready
to begin training for their opening
game with the Reading Keys at
Reading Pa, on September 90.
The local club has many out
standing men on it's roster, the
latest addition being Vince Hop
kins, an All-American nominee.
The Keys have the best pro team
in Central Pennsylvania and the
Washington Club must really pro-
duce to give them a battle.

The Chicago Cubs, aspirants to
the National League pennant, are
sustaining themselves upon moth
ing more than a faint hope.
The st. Louis Cardinals, who
will win the flag unless they
cave like a sand bank, have
fair edge on the lost side of the
percentage column.
The Cubs must hold the Cards
even at the worst until Septem-
ber 26, when the teams come
to grips in a five-game jouSt in
st. Louis. Now if the Cubs can
stick two games back until then,
they have a chance. It isn't good
chance by any means. The sta

mean anything u'N N
beyond the fact that the Tigers
were in a slump, and that after
all the Indians are a third-place
club?
In the first place, there are en-.
tirely too many uncertain spots
o nthe club to warrant any ex-
huberance over the future. There
are parts which will have to be
replaced through the winter. Con-
Structive deals will have to be
made before we can look with
hope to 1886.
There is no question that the
GriffS must get a catcher. Cliff
Bolton is improving steadily if
not rapidly, but he is the first,
second and third7String catcher.
He is the staff. Jack Redmond
is an uncertain quantity because
of the condition of his left hand.
He has been ordered to stop smok-
ing now.
Starr shows no sign of hitting
ability, and Holbrook will be re.
leased or traded through the win
ter, in all probability. Redmond
in condition is the best receiver
on the staff, and undoubtedly
would hit could he play every
day.
Pitching Nucleus
Buck Newson and Earl White.
hill form the nucleus of the pitch
ing staff. Linke has pitched some
good games and in another year
might be effective. Petit relieved
well yesterday, and on numerous
other occasions. But no one, and
least of all Bucky Harris, would
willingly brave another champion
ship season with what material
he now has.
We will have an opportunity to
observe two of the '36 prospects
in action tomorrow when Orv
Rodgers and Dick Lanahan turn
their stuff loose on the Cleveland
Indians. Lanahan in a brief but
interesting workout yesterday
showed greatly improved style
over what he had in spring train
ing.
No more interesting experiment
ever was made than that which
Harris is making now with Ro-
berto EStalella. The Cuban may
be "Baseball's Child of Destiny"
He is no more crude than Babe
Ruth was when the home run
king Joined Boston after a season
with Baltimore and Providence.
Estalella is dangerous with the
bat.
Quite as important as his hit
ting is the fact that he has vet
to make a bad play defenSively.
Blunders StrategicalIy
He made a strategic blunder
yesterday hitting with three and
nothing, but he walked over to
the bench and said to Harris:
II do not do thees thing
again."
The only certainty in the
GriffS' infield for SO is Buddy
Myer, who is having the greatest
year he ever experienced. Buddy
probably will get. and certainly
he deserves a tidy boost in his
contract next winter. The team
must have Myer to even dream
OF going places.
Travis and Powell are the
starting outfielders in left and
center fields, respectively. Right
field is open. Stone might win
that job in IS if he is with the
club. He has tie arm, and if
he would just develop the knack
OF having a . ainStorrn or two
and lose some of t. placid side
Of his nature he would be a bet
ter ball player. Last year Stone
had more assists than all of the
other Griff outfielders put to-
gether. This year he's a good
hitter from the South playing
ball in the summer.
Let's take our own figures and
recapitulate. Bolton stands as
the catcher, but there is a strong
possibility of his moving to other
points if moving him will bring
strength to Washington. White

PepUp Appetite;
Relish Your Food

No matter how little you eat, you
should relish your food to feel your
best and get the most enjoyment
out of living. If clogged-up bowels
and inactive kidneys are poisoning
your system, causing you to have a
"puny," finicky appetite, and max

without ambition or zest for the
good things in life-take a few doses
of good old Williams S. L. K. Form
ula and see how much better you
feel
Williams S. L. K. Formula is
compounded from the prescription
of a former army doctor and con-
tains valuable ingredients which
accomplish their work in four bene-
fetal ways: AS a mild tonic, stom-
ach stimulant, laxative, and diuretic
Stimulant for the kidneys. Many
take Williams S. L. K. Formula also
for indigestion, nausea, loss of
weight and sallow complexion, where
a mild tonic, laxative, stomachic,

the governor down, probably will
be asked whether they are for or
against the plan. State Treasurer
Otto Case, who doubtless will run
for governor, has been the only Of
fetal to make a statement either
way, the others remaining silent to
questions of their leanings.
Case Eyes Governorship
Case, who has espoused the plan
since its babyhood in Washington,
Is militantly for the program.
Should he fail to get the Democrat
gubernatorial nomination in Sep
TENDER, he may run as an indepen-
dent in the November general cleo
ton on a Townsend ticket.
Governor Clarence D. Martin,
with an eye possibly to renomina-
ton in September, has said little
about the Townsend plan in his
numerous speeches. He has made
indirect "digs" at various pension
plans for rousing false hopes" in
the minds of old people.
Stevenson Has Plan
King county Commissioner John
G. Stevenson, another gubernatorial
possibility, has proffered state
pension plan of his own invention
calling for 500 month.
Other men mentioned as candi-
dates for governor, like Walter F..

Hill Against McGroarty Bill
The bitterest Townsend battle,
naturally, will center around Wash
ington's six congressman. Reps.
Wesley Lloyd of Tacoma and Sam
B. Hill of Waterville both voted
against the McGroarty bill in the
last congress, with Reps. Kuute
Hill, Martin F. Smith, Marion
zioncheck and Mon Wallgreu for it,
Senators SchWellenbach and Bone
have been quoted as saying they
would vote for the plan if it passed
the house of representatives.
Exact voting strength of the
Townsend clubs in Washington is
not known. Claims have been
made that there are from 500 to
1 900 clubs organized and active to-
day, controlling many thousands of
votes in a compact bloc.
Governor Martin carried the
Democrat primary in 1882 with g.
600 votes and John A. Gellatly the
Republican with 10000. Martin
polled $4,000 to Gellatly's 100000
votes in the general election.
Results Doubtful
With the new blanket primary
law going into effect for the first
time next September and the
Townsend issue, predictions on the
effect of each were difficult.
Townsend clubs may demand
that state elective officials declare
themselves for or against their
scheme. Several officials here al
ready have received inquiries from
individual clubs, but have remain
ed mum for political expediency.
Rumblings of a purge" within
the Washington state Townsend
organization have been heard fob
lowing demands from national
leaders that political leeches" be
expelled.
Thus far, none of the anti
Townsend organizations have be-
come active in Washington, al
though they are springing up else
where as the Townsend tidal wave
picks up momentum eastward.

FARM EXPORTS
RISE SLIGHTLY

Agricultural exports from this
country improved slightly in the
third quarter of 1885, the United
States Chamber of Commerce dis
closed yesterday.
Although still Strikingly below
pre-war and postwar figures, ex-
ports of cotton. tobacco, barley,
rice, citrus fruits, canned fruits
and sugar rose due to heavier
foreign demand.
The chambers analysis said:
Fer the first three-quarterx
Of the year farm products con-
Stituted 28.4 per cent Of our
total export trade, as compared
with 27.7 per cent at the end Of
the haf-year period.
''The current proportion of
farm products in our total ex-
ports compares with the pre,war
average Of 53.9 per cent for the
years 1907-191I. and the post
war average of 45.9 per cent
for 1922 1926"

NEW HIGHS SET
FOR YEAR IN
MARKET
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Dec. 26 G.NSO .
A number of new highs for the
year we're established today as
the market vigorously resumed it's
rise on a broad front.
Aggressive demand for utilities
was a feature of the trading, with
North American, Consolidated
Gas, Columbia Gas and American
WaterworkS, which equaled its
1885 high, all gaining point or
more. Popularity of these issues
reflected the Jump of electric pro
duction above the two-billion-kilo
watt-hour mark last week for the
first time in the induStry'S history.
Retail trade reports showing the
best Christmas business since 1880
and the first batch of year-end
statements by industrial leaders
painting a rosy picture of pros
poets for 1885 also stimulated
hullish sentiment.
Aviation and rubber shares fol-
lowed closely on the pace set by
the utilities. Speculative public
buying of the air issues whirled
Douglas, with a gain of 3 points,
Boeing and United Aircraft to new
peaks for the year.

LESS IN YEAR

NEW YORK, Dec. 26 G.N.S0.
Cudahy Packing Company net in
come for the fiscal year ended
November 2 decreased to $1,211,-
073 from $2242,823 in the pre-
Ceding 12-month period.
After allowing for the pre-
ferred per share net on the COM
mon amounted to $1.35 as con-
traSted with 1886 a share in the
previous year.
F. A. Crdohy. chairman of the
board. attributed the decline in
earnings. despite an increase in
dollar sales from $151 100000 to
$180.218,00 to the reduced
volume of livestock handled by
the company as a consequence of
the droughts and the AAA hog
adjustment program.

GRAIN TRADING
AT STANDSTILL

CHICAGO, Dec. 26 GN.S.0.
Trade in grains was virtually at
a Standstill on the board of trade
early today. Both the Winnipeg
and Liverpool markets were still
closed, while Buenos Aires held
unchanged.
Despite the almost complete
lack of trading here early. there
was an air of expectancy in the
wheat pit because of the tight
situation in December wheat. To
day and tomorrow are the final
days for closing out the open COM
mittmentS and the possibility of
a further widening of the prem
fum for December over May is
holding the attention of traders.
The premium today was 63s cents,
December selling at $1.051a, and
May 993a.
At mid-session wheat was u to
y cent up led by December, corn
unchanged to 70 cent off, oats
unchanged to 70 cent up.
