Blair high school, with the fea-
ture game Of the day at Rosedale
Playground, where Sun Radio,
last seasons winners, tackle the
Mitchell Brothers squad. The
Mitchell Brothers played under
the Virginia Avenue banner last
year.

champions may not prove as
strong as last year because Of the
probable absence of Sammy Hook
and Fred Wilson, who were bull
warks Of strength in the half-back
and forward lines respectively,
but the remainder of the players
can be depended upon for spirited
displays. Louis Mitchell. mentor
of the opposing eleven, has added
a few new players to stiffen up
the team, notably Lewis at center.
forward, and Kneesi, full.back.
Harding, who played with New

Rare is the man or woman who

It is a feeling that somehow Is

pies hearts are full of love, appre-
citation and admiration for their
mothers, but their vocabularies will
not permit a full expression Of these
mingled emotions.
The best manner TO express this
feeling is with flowers. They sig
nifty everything fine and beautiful.
and you can rest assured that your
mother Will understand if you send
her flowers. You doubtless remem-
Der the kind of flowers that she lik-
ed best, and it would be a delight

YOUNG AMERICAS IDEAL

THE average high school youngster values
= good physical health above everything
else, if check made at Thomas jefferson
High School, in New York City, is any cri-
teron
Boys and girls at that institution agreed
that physical fitness is their chief aspiration
Next to it the boys ranked wisdom, likeability,
service, wealth, and fame.
The girls shifted the order only a little,
agreeing with the boys in everything save
that they valued appreciation of beauty more
than worldly wealth.
If one wanted to be very serious and pro-
found one probably could draw number Of
morals from all this One could write, for

high school youngsters are normal, healthy
youngsters interested in precisely those things
one would expect normal, healthy youngsters
to be interested in.

BALLOT BLACKMAIL

NEARLY $50 years have passed since a
congress Of the people meeting in Phila-
delphia declared all men TO be equal and
endowed with certain inalienable rights. Yet
some interests seem never to have recog-
nized these truths to be self-evident"
Senator VanNuys Of Indiana has intro
Guced bill providing fines and imprison-
ment for employers who attempt by intimi-
dation or fear to influence the votes of their
employees in national elections.
Unfortunately such a law is needed. In
the last presidential election, placards ap-
peared in the shops and Offices of many fac
tories and corporations threatening shut
downs and loss Of Jobs if Franklin Roosevelt
were elected. Foremen and paymasters told
workers that unless they voted as their en-
ployers willed, they need not report for duty
after election. To smaller extent, the same
practices were used to help defeat Al Smith
in 1928
Since American workers are a stubborn
lot where their electoral rights are involved
such threats usually react as boomerangs.
But, doubtless, in periods of distress, thou
sands Of the more timid have succumbed to
this none too subtle form of political black
mail
The VanNuys bill should become a law. And
the safeguards it provides for the ballot in ma
tional elections should be extended by Legis-
latures to state elections.
