BY SID KATZNELL

The 1934-35 bowling season will
be history tonight when the
twenty-fifth annual Washington
Duckpin Association tournament
concludes activities at Columbia
after three weeks of intensive
maple shooting.
Tonight has been set aside for
poStponements.
In Spotlight
Paul Jarman was the center Of
attraction last night.
Requiring only 361 set to sur,
pass Earl McPhilomy's mark OF
LIST in the Class A all-events.
Jarman pounded the wooden bot
ties for games of 1874, 1873 and
lat for a 404 set in the singles,
giving him a total Of 1901.
Jarman's mark was just seven
pins shy of Paul Harrison's rec
ord set last year.
Watson Third
Charley Watson rolled 408 to
jump into third place in the Class
A singles competition.
Clarence Taft, Conger's Temple
Minor League, replaced Dutch"
Sherbahn in Class B singles by
shooting 406.
Marvin Oliveri, perhaps the out
standing junior bowler of the
year, flashed with a 379 set in
Class c singles.

GOLF ADVICE

Keep your club on a straight
line in the direction of the hole.
That's Gene SaraZen's advice
to golfers who wish to white
down their golf scores.
SaraZen made a one-day stand
at the Hecht Company store here
yesterday and elaborated upon
the intricacies of the game that
has captivated millions Of Amer
leans. He declared:
"The trouble with most golf
ers is that they swing their
clubhead in all directions at
the top of the back swing. Go
back on a straight line, draw
ing the club back with the
thumb and first finger of the
right hand, hit from the inside
out on the downswing and fol-
low through after the cIubhead
contacts the ball."

Down in st. Louis Buddy really
went on a rampage and made
seven safe hits out of nine times

Blow a Homer
One of his blows was a home
run to the top of the right field
stands. He is standing free and
loose at the plate. There Is no
tightening, no pressing. Just
very nifty hitting in the niftiest
hitting style.
Keeping pace with Myer in pro-
ducing runs is none other than
the cratic but colorful jake
Powell, center fielder. He has
driven in 10 runs, tops the team
so far. Powell is timing the pitch

Of playing up to the standards of

Bucky Harris announced this
morning that Bumps Hadley
would pitch today. Lefty Sulli-
van will twist them up for the
Tigers. Sullivan has been in five
games so far, winning two, losing
one. with no decision on the re-
naming two. At least two Ameri-
can League umpires think very
highly of Sullivan. He is a low
ball pitcher with good curve.
and a deceptive screw ball. He
has several styles OF pitching and
does not hesitate to shift his style
when not getting results.
Hadley had won three games
for Washington with one defeat.
He has pitched 30 innings in his
four starts, with no complete
games to his credit. He has
allowed 80 hits, walked seven men
and struck out IL. The Tigers
have won five out of their last
six starts and now are beginning
to look like pretty tough compe-
tition.

To sense the difference between Republican
and Nazi Germany one must hear foreign
policy expounded first by an old-school
diplomat like Dr.. Buelow, and then by DR..
Alfred Rosenberg, Hitler's personal adviser on
foreign affairs and long time leader of the
Nazi party's private foreign office. One great
difficulty in dealing with present. day Ger
many is that it has two governments. The
Nazi party hierarchy is separate and distinct
organization. Even the leaders who represent
both sometimes act as irresponsible party
members and not as responsible government
officials.
DR.. Rosenberg, who creates Nazi foreign
policy without being responsible for it, is
blue-eyed, handsome, youthful and vigorous.
When his fanatic streak is subdued he is

rather than diplomat, and says what he

c. o. P. AND THE PRESS.

One of the profound problems now being con- sidered in the more exalted circles of the Old Guard Republican management, according to political com mentators in the East concerns that subject which has been so feelingly touched upon by various re- actionary spokesmen and bounced upon by Senator Schal namely the freedom of the press
 Whether to print the news. that so much of it relates to continued rapid strides toward economic recovery or whether to continue to dis tort and minimize the earnest efforts of President Roosevelt normal business conditions with the minimum loss of time, that is the question
 To the most casual observer it apparent a few days after the last solemn secret conclave of the Republican National Executive Committee in Washington September 25, that the so-called Chicago mthod" had gained high favor with the High Command Thereafter the treatment of re covery in the ultra conservative press followed the example set by Col Frank Knoxs Chicago Even ing News and Col Bertie McCormcks Chicago Tribune of playing down" all that good news and playing up all that might possibly be con- sdered unfavorabe to the President and his pro gram
 But like other policies inaugurated by these out moded politicians earlier this year, such the grass root conferences and a variety of fantastic schemes to discredt the AAA in farming sections, their plan to continue the cooring of the news may have struck snag. At least Raymond Capper political editor of the Washington Post Republican) records that "one of the leading Western Repub- lican newspaper publishers vowed that he lis con- cerned lest the newspapers play into President Roosevelts hands by being too aggressive in their criticism"
 He recalled" writes Clapper, that his own newspaper often has elected ncompetents to office solely because it opposed them so relentlessly"
