Two Libby Men
Explore Local Mountains

Two enthusiastic mountain men, Of
this district are j. T. Brindley and E.
j. Driear. Recently they decided to
spend a delightful time exploring the
primitive area Of this section, back in
the high mountains, and accordingly
got their outfit ready and started out.
After getting back to town, they re-
ported that they had had a difficult
but happy trip This is what Brindley
had to say about it.
We left Libby at a. nj. on Sunday,
the 18th, with the intention of going
through the primitive area of the Koot-
enai forest. We drove up Cedar creek
about 2l2 miles, and when say we
| mean Ed Driear, our faithful com
panion, the pack horse, and myself
I'VE packed and started up the trail
about a. m. and got along fine until
the pack shifted and we had to repack.
This happened, think. three or four
times before we got to the lakes. We
also had to cut through dead tree
about two feet in diameter This de-
layed lis about 80 minutes. Going up
we met Ed Rodgers coming down. He
had eight nice rainbow trout We ar
rived at the campground about | p. m.
After cooking dinner and pitching
camp, we left for lower Cedar lake,
about quarter of mile farther; a
most beautiful lake nestled in the heart
Of the mountains with the cliffs tower
ing hundreds of feet on all sides and
here and there the snow lying in great
drifts, the sun shining upon them help
ing to make the scenery most beautiful.
We fished about 80 minutes and caught
four rainbow trout between IL and
- inches long In fact, I caught two
at once, having two flies on my leader.
This is all we tried to catch, being all
we could eat
Next day we took trip to the upper
lake, which is also a beautiful body of
water. On the one side is Dome noun
tain towering to its lofty heights, and
on the other side mountain equally
as high, with its snow drifts blinking
and glazing in the sunlight. The only
unpleasant feature was the many horse
flies and mosquitoes.
The next morning we packed up and
crossed the divide into the north fork
of Parmenter creek, following down
the creek for several miles, going
through acres and acres Of huckleber-
ries. It was almost sheer drop coming
down this trail and we had to repack
several times. We finally came to the
forks of the creek and there turned
up the south fork of Parmenter, with
the intention of going on to Minor lake
and other bodies of water and explor-
ing hidden valleys, then returning home
down Flower creek. But after travel
ing up the south fork of Parmenter
about two miles, we met our Waterloo
There we found the trail washed COM
pletely out, with large tree down
across the trail, making it impossible
to 60 farther Therefore we had tc
turn around and come on down Par
menter. We had to travel about six
miles before we could find suitable
place with enough feed for the horse
We surely were tired and appreciated
the hard ground to sleep on that night
Next day we fished Parmenter anc
caught our limit of trout In the late
afternoon we packed and headed fol
horne, arriving at 8 p. m"

High|ights Of An.
Auto Tour
BY THE EDITOR
ELEVENTH INSTALLMENT
The Heart of the Nation.

For many years we had felt long
ing in our hearts to visit Washington,
the nations capital, and on this mem
orable auto trip we had that longing
satisfied There we spent nearly three
happy days--three days crowded full
of sights and impressions we shall
never forget Of course, we merely
scratched the surface" in those three
days, as it would take weeks, months
and years to see and appreciate all
Washington has to offer one.
The Nations Capital How it stirs
ones heart.
In its cleaning architecture are
concentrated the history and tradi-
tons of America. In its humming in
ternational life beats the pulse OF the
world. A city that is neither North nor
South-that belongs to every state and
to no state-Washington is unique and
distinctive among world cities.
Washington alone was conceived as
a nations capital--Was planned and
developed with that end In view No
other city possesses the beauty and
grandeur, the perfection of arrange
ment and the multitude of educational,
enjoyable, and worthwhile points Of in
terest as does the National City on the
broad Potomac. Truly it expresses the
spirit, traditions, culture, and progress
Of the United States.
The visitor can spend weeks in
Washington seeing something interest
ing and instructive each day The
Capital numbers scores of famous
buildings, broad, shady avenues; ma
jestic memorial shrines; statutes and
monuments; museums, parks, fine
hotels, shops and theatres.
We spent the greater part Of one
day in tour of the city, in which was
included visits to most of the outstand-
ing buildings and shrines of the city.
The second day we took our own car
and drove out to Mount Vernon, that
great shrine which holds the warm in
terest of every patriotic American. The
remainder of the day we spent visiting
Washingtons monument, the Lincoln
Memorial, the Library of Congress and
various other points of interest. They
were three memorable days that will
long be remembered
The Heart OF America.
Naturally one of our keenest interests
was in the great Capitol building. There
centers the heart of America. There the
nation is governed and there history is
made. Ranked as one of the noblest
buildings in the world the .Capitol's
great dome rises from the commanding
eminence of Capitol HILL That is a

one mans thought as he viewed the
building. We shall not attempt to de-
scribe this famous structure In the
short space at our disposal Suffice it
to say that nearly everyone has seen
views of it and those views give fairly
faithful picture of the great building
except in one particular. From the pic
lures I had seen, had supposed the
building was very white. | was disap-
pointed to find that it was gray and
dingy, marked by the weather and the
smoke of the capital At intervals the
building is given a thorough cleaning
and such a cleaning was in progress
when we were there. Undoubtedly the

BRITISH POINT
 TOAWRD POLO
 GAMES OF 1886
By ROBERT c. DoWsoN

United Press Stan Correspondent.
 London (UP)-British poloisss are preparing for the Westchester cup contest to be played in 1936.
 Hitherto the contests have been played in the country holding tie trophy, but the recent change in conditions provides for the match. es to be staged alternately in the United States and Britain. The first battle under the new condi. tions will be at the Birmingham Club here.
 British interest in international polo was revived last season by tho visit of the almost all-con- querfng United States Aurora team composed of Elmer !. Boeseke, Jr, Seymour IT. Knox, Harold Ec. Tat bot, Jr, and William II. Post. Their combined handicap of 30 points proved too strong for the majority of British quartets and their American-bred ponies generally out-distanced the British mounts.
 Team to U. s.
 By way of returning this well confe visit the Birmingham club Is planning to send team to the United States this season and the selection committee undoubtedly will endeavor to build up the nG- cleus of an international side in preparation for the Westchester cup matches next year.
 Although the British polo season does not open until May 1, experts and fans already are spcculating on the formation of the team for tho United States tour In which the American open championship will be the chief objective.

Paul Foster Earns Varsity Berth With Middlebury
 College Harriers

Middlebury, Vt, April 27-Tb. Middlebury College track teaL1 yesterday concluded the eiimina- tion trials held during the past week and a half to pick the out standing contestants for the open ing meet with Wesleyan at Middle town this afternoon.
 Thirty men qualified in the four. teen events run off. In the sprints, Hoxie, Wollaston, Mass; Boehnl, New York city, and Cady, Bellows Falls, all consistent winners laGt year, showed up best, John Wn- Hams, Fair Haven, and Paul Fos- ter, Watertown, Conn, did we'll Al the short. distances, the latter ru.,- ming the 44O in good style, and the former taking close third in both the 220 and the century. Kenneth McFadyen, Worcester, Mass, state record holder in the SS0 and the mile seems to be in even better form than last year, with Richard Forbush, Springfield, and Lewis Bernardini, also of Springfield, running him a close second in the same events. The two mile race uSNOIOpcO AltO q COHtcSt UctWSCH Walter Brooker, New Lebanon, N. H., and Archibald Tilford, Law renceville, Pa, with TI:ford edging the former out by few yards.
 In the running events, Middle bury is probably far stronger than Wesleyan, judging from the times turned in by the latter in its win over BU last week. However, Mid. dlebury has an obvious handicap in the field events, with 3S feet the best distance turned in for the shot during the week, 6 8" for the high jump, and 165 feet for the jav- elin.
 Captain Mathewson, Lyndon Center, ranks head and shoulders above the Middlebury hurlers. holding the state and college rec- ord In both the high and low hur. dles. The high jumpers are led by Shea, Larhcmont, N. Y., fol- lowed by Don Sweet, Middlebu:y. and Bernardini. Whitney, Salis- bury, has been averaging l20 feet in the hammer throw. HoFmann. Middletown, N. r., IT. g., in the pole vault, and Dick Williams, Hopkinton, N. H., Is the outstand- ing performer in the javelin. AL though the prospects of first place winners seem bright enough, Coach Brown is faced with the problem either of developing sec- ond and third place material or of conceding four points in every event to the opposing team.

FAMOUS COLLEGE REGATTA OPENS
 SHELL SEASON
Presidents Son in First Varsity Race of His
 Career

Cambridge, Mass, April 27.- (UP) - Harvard and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Jr, son of the president, make their season crew debut today, rowing against Prince ton and Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the annual mile and three-quarters regatta on the Charles river.
 It also will mark the first varsity race for the presidents son who will pull No. oar in a sophomore shell.
 A surprising victory over the Pennsylvania Athletic club last week coupled with the fact that five vet erans will be rowing in the Tiger shell, has established Princeton as a favorite to repeat its triumph of the two previous years.
 Illness to Leslie c. Haines, crack stroke oar in the M. I. T. shell has cut down the chances of his coach- ing fathers crew, which rowed a record breaking race at Worcester last week in losing to Yale.
 Besides young Roosevelt, Har- ward will have four sophomores in its varsity shell. Despite the fact that Harvard will start a young and inexperienced crew, the Grim. son is figured to make a close bat tie of 1t.

They emphasized a protein diet. 1t was hesesy to eat cabbage. beans, Or fresh vegeta bles. Milk, pastries and sweets were taboo. Their diet was restricted to guard against putting fat. It was their thought that all foods must be muscle builders.
 There was no realization of the value of vitamins in salads, fresh vegetables. milk, and the score of other foods Served on regular menus.
 That theory is carried down to some of the present track men and coaches.
 Occasionally. some lean and hungry-looking athlete will ask me to prescribe a diet. When ! tell him to eat the same food that his mother serves at home, he is astonished.. His high school coach probably banned much of this food. Yet he would be capable of running better had he a thin layer of fat on his ribe.
 My advice is to partake of a balanced dict-eat plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits, meats, pota- toes, and bread, and drink plenty of milk. Any food that does not everburden the digestive organs is good. Candy and pastry are even recommended for boys who are too fine.
 Briefly, I would caution the young athlete to dispense with food that does not agree with him; to be moderate, and to re- frain from overeating.
