Anderson Breaks Through.

HRAUSS and Johnny Anderson
N have made longer strides than
any of the other promising
bowlerS of the 1933-34 season. For
several campaigns Anderson was a
little short of true stardom, but this
time he is we'll over the line. with
averages of 124 in the National
Capital, 121 in the District and '2l in
the Columbia Heights.
For consistency We give you Eddie
Espey, who is averaging 100 in the
District and National Capital Leagues
and 121 in the Columbia Heights and
knights of Columbus.
Whip Litchfield, a former Camp
bell Sweepstakes champion, is tagging
in the District League race with lit,
but has an average of 1913 in the Co.
lumbia Heights and 121 LII the Ma
tional Capital.
Ollie Pacini is holding a steady pace
of 100 or better in four leagues. His
averages are 1922 in the Holy Name.
121 in the District and Temple Major
and 120 in the Washington Singles.
Pacini is the only bowler ever to win
the National Duckpin Bowling Con-
gress No. l ranking twice. His 443 is
q season record for the District
League.
Red Megaw, with 122 in the District
and 119 in the National Capital, is
staging somewhat of a comeback, or
rather having his best season in sew
eral years. Red has never slipped
enough to classify anything he does as
a real comeback. Considering general
performances over a span of Is years,
I believe Megaw would outrank any
bowler in the country with the possible
exception of Ray Won Dreele of Balti-
more.
Hokie Smith Setting Record.
"ONY SANTINI is averaging 1913
: in the District and 120 in the
knights of Columbus League,
but his principal claim for considera-
ton is the leadership of the Washing
ton Singles League, an all-star outfit
which he tops not only in victories,
but in average, with 124. To-
night at the Arcadia Tony will at
tempt to increase his advantage at the
expense of George ISemann.
Last but probably not least in this
summing up of leading candidates for
the throne Of District bowlers is Hokie
Smith, captain of the champion King
Pin team of the District League.
Hokie is leading the National Capital
League with a record average of 1876
and shooting at a 121 clip in the Dis
trict.
When the last shots have been fired
by these howitzers, the Ranking Com
mite of the Washington City Duckpin
Association may be hard put to select
the highest-calibered. It's job may
be simplified by decisive vivtory for
one of them in the Campbell Sweep
stakes.

Educational System
Called Outrt1oded

To the Editor of The Times:
Of all the stupid American insti-
buttons our educational system IS
probably the most outstanding.
We have made many changes in
our system of government, in our
clothes, and in various Social inSti-
buttons in the past 20 years, but
the school system, overridden by
plutocratic pedagogues who ap-
parently enjoy the mental perSecu-
ton of inarticulate children, goes
on plodding along the same rough
paths outlined by our forefathers.
We have in this country de-
veloped an overabundance OF
mental misfits during the last gen
Grafton. There is. evidence every
where of psychic alterations,
nervous disorders and cerebral
Embellishments.
This deplorable situation in So
called civilized land is partly due
to the postwar period reaction,
coupled with the ever-increasing
mismanagement of our school syS-
tenn, in which no. substantial
changes for betterment have been
made in a decade.
Why children between the ages
of and IL should be forced to
learn by rote things which to them
are entirely inexplicable and
therefore distasteful is really a
puzzle. Something could and
should be done to remedy the stu
alton. Let's explode the old no
ton teachers are omniscient. They
are forced to admit they are fall
lible. Let them give heed to new
methods of imparting knowledge.
Man was created % assimilate
knowledge, just as duck takes to
water. It should not be a dreary
drudge, which is certainly the case
in our schools today.
Pedagogues awaken.

Your problem is tough because
it is haTd to make any civilized
person aware of deep, murderouS
resentment within himself Anti
social wishes are always in con-
flict with the ego ideal which
sternly resists insight into the
trouble. None of us is quite Sc
cure from the menace Of represSed
primitive impulses and we defend
ourselves with non-comprehen-
sion when others try to explain
the meaning Of troublesome ten
denotes.
Your own reaction to the prob
lem SHOWS decided retrogression
toward primitive methods. 1t
does not take much insight to de-
tect whose life it is that you no
longer find it repugnant to de-
stroy. In self-protection you'll
either have to convince your wife
that she is a sick woman in need
of psychiatric advice, or provide
for her and get out.

OF things morbid 1 find myself at
tracted to these concepts. In my
thought, at least, the destruction Of
my own or another life is no longer
repugnant.
My wife initiates her mother in
her conversational habits, the
mother being the worst of the two,
and their whole family follows this
pattern to a considerable extent. My
wife has a strong attachment for
her mother that amounts to a fix
alton. The mother, by her influ-
ence. so aroused the discomfort of
my wife that a fine home, a large
income and an indulgent husband
we're no compensation for living out
side the state of California. AL
though normally good fellow and
an optimist I was unable to maintain
my business friendships and now !
have no business and few friends.
Constant nagging about tobacco
liquor and church attendance kept
me so irritated that I was unfit
physically or mentally to carry on
in field where I was unusually
proficient. Conditions are now some
what better but there is still the
morbid background, the trend to
negauvism and the delight in sor-
row, discomfort, pain and frustra-
ton Of others. Perhaps you or some
reader can tell me the answer.
AT WITS END.
Answer-It is obvious that your
wife is consumed by rage and hate
which receive no direct outlet in
her daily life. Unrecognized but
powerful forbidden instincts war
for expression and find only a
partial outlet in her morbid con-
versation. The picture you pant
suggests a disturbance in the
womans love life which started
early in childhood and was car
RED over into her marriage. NY
guess is that she is unconsciously
holding on 10 some infantile dis
appointment and that she reacts
TO every situation which suggests
1t with her original infantile nos
tilitY. OF course she is identified
with her mother and has copied
her roundabout method Of deal
ing witt. dire disappointment. To
