off his mouth about what he
would do in a return bout.
SiIaS Does Well
Phil has turned in a couple OF
bad fights his last two times out,
and Silas has been doing eXcep-
tionaIy we'll, and so the bout he
has been clamoring for is his to-
night to do with as he will. Furr
expects to knock Sid out so per-
manently that he will have corns
on his shoulder-blades. Sid visions
a knockout but maintains that a
guy named Phillip Furr will be
the victim. Anyway, it's genuine
grudge battle, and while its down
on the schedule for ten rounds,
few are betting that it will go that
far. Incidentally Phirs D. c. well

sters were Cornell's 12-6 reverse
at the hands of st. Lawrence
and Virginia's 12-7 beating from
Hampden-Sydney.
Assuming that there were
other reasons with respect to the
mechanics of the game, it is safe
to say that in each of the games
mentioned above the surprised
team was suffering from poor
mental attitude. They started off
with a false sense of superiority,
received vital blows from their
determined and inspired foes and
never could recover.
Many football fans do not real
ize that a physically strong, me-
chanically-perfect or near-perfect
team must enjoy certain frame
of mind in order to win consis'
tently. Merely trotting out on
the field does not defeat a
smaller, weaker opponent. AS
long as the under-dog has II
men on the gridiron it has a
chance to beat the favored men.
A strong team that takes its
assignment lightly, "loafing'
through plays and permitting the
opponent to "beat it to the
punch in any manner is bound
to suffer in the score. The under
dog is constantly trying, seeking
break or an opening to put
over a touchdown. It's tackling
and blocking and other funda-
mental work constantly threat
ems. It is ever ready to snatch
up a tumble or run a play over
tackle who isn't alert or pass
into the secondaries' territory
when the defenders are slow and
Indifferent.
An overconfident team can off
set the finest coaching. A team
that doesn't figure it has to put
out" in order to win is half
beaten before the whistle blows.
And rarely can team that en-
ters a game overconfident recall
the proper frame of mind before
it is too late. When suddenly it
wakes up to the fact that it has
handed it's opponent an advant
age, it seldom can rise to the
occasion and rally.
However, football teams usual
ly recover from mental sickness
during the week following an up
set. A football player generally
is not one to take a betaing
and remain beaten. He usually
bounces back for the ensuing
game eager and determined. A
team coming back from an de
feat is extremely dangerous to
its next foe.

Manse Miller of Friday night
last week, the compliment
he pays Washington is all
the more worth telling.
Herb took occasion to say
that nowhere in America is a
better gold cup race staged
and nowhere is a city a finer
hosts to the pilots and me-
chanics and owners of high
powered wood and metal skip
jacks.
A Real Host
; He declared the awards
given here are the best, yes,
he said "most expensive" of
any regatta in this country
and that the arrangements,
entertainment and esprit de
corps in Washington are the
finest Of all gold cup presen-
tations from one end of the
year to the other.
A year ago Mendleson raced
here with his "Ma-do7shu-ni
"" a craft named with the
first letters of the given names
of his four children, Marie,
Dorothy, etc. endleso
touches all the bases in his
racing enterprises, taking in
Lake George, Red Bank, At
lantic City, Miami and, Of
course, Detroit, his home
town.
A Hybrid Graft
The "Notre Dame" surprise
winner of the Presidents Cup
this year, is a sort of hybrid
craft. The hull was laid for a
Miller engine, which had been
promised for June delivery,
and on the first of June it was
apparent the motor would not
be completed for summer rae
ing.
So the Detroit sportsman
and boat manufacturer started
shopping around for some
thing with which to drive the
new shell. ultimately buying a
discarded Duesenberg off Horace
Dodge. To the expert mind,
this circumstance makes the vic
tory of the Mendleson craft
nothing short of a miracle.
The "Notre Dame" had had
but two genuine trials before
, starting the first leg of the
Presidents Cup last Saturday.
! At the first trial a mechanical
, defect was discovered and cor
rected, and at the second trial
the engine tore out a section
| Of the hull.
! Football, Baseball Fans
Mrs. Mendleson, quite as
much of a motorboat en-
I thusiast as her husband, did
/ not come to Washington this
, year, remaining at home to see
. the opening games of the world
/ series, insamuch as MIR. Men
! dleson is going from here to
New York on a business trip.
I Both are ardent football fans
and their particular weakness
is Notre Dame, for which the
Presidents Cup winner was
named. The Mendueson have
travelled from coast to coast to
watch the famed South Bend
eleven play in recent years.
The victory of the half-breed
"'Notre Dame" boat is a well
deserved one and an outStand-
ing example of the vagaries of
the boat-racing pastime.
Not All Bitter Dregs
Washington's 1885 baseball
campaign is not all in vain.
The team finishes a very
definite sixth, but its Joe Louis

out the Cleveland outfielder,
Joe Vosmik by a margin of
three points, which, insofar as
the salary Myer will ask of

might just as well be 10
points. or even more than that.

in modern times to set a pace

Ill MOTHER

The staunch heart Of 12-year-old
Franklin Campbell throbbed today
with varying emotions.
Reunited with his mother, whom
he had not seen in four years,
after he had braved the hazards
of the highway and walked most
of the way from his native Pitts
burgh. Pa. to Washington, the
child faced a new separation and
was preparing to leave.
He spent the night at the po-
lice receiving home. His mother
is a patient in st. Elizabeth's
Hospital where she was taken last
November. The mother was 10
Gated after a 48-hour polio e
search. She had given an as
sumed name.
Young Franklin has no other
relatives in Washington. There
is no place where he can remain
to be near his mother. So he is
returning to Pittsburgh, where he
lives with an aunt and uncle.
The boy received a letter from
his mother last week telling him
she was i'll in a hospital here.
Without funds, the youth hitch
hiked to Hagerstown. Md, where
he was picked up by Fireman Har-
vey S. Fearnow, of No. 8 engine
house, who lives in the first block
Q st. N. E.
Young Franklin slept in box
cars and had little food during
his four-day journey to Washing
ton.
At first it appeared his trip
would be fruitless, but the child
did not lose hope and last night
his mother was located by the
Women's Bureau of the Police
Department.

Explorers Seek Grass
To Prevent Erosion

Their trails have led to the
high ranges of the Andes, the
steaming jungles of Brazil, across
the wind-swept steppes of Russia
and into the unknown interior of
New Guinea.
Their caravans have crossed the
sands of Arabia. their faces have
been burned by the sun of
Madagascar and frosted by the
bitter cold of Outer Mongolia.
Such are the unsung heroes of
the exploration division of the
Department of Agriculture, the
bring em-back-alive", boys who
jeopardize their lives so their fel.
low citizens can live better lives.
The Department of Agriculture
is constantly on the lookout for
new types of plants, herbs and
flowers. There is no tomfoolery
about the character of their work.
They search only for plants that
will contribute new wealth to the
country.
Just now the particular problem
facing the departments explorers
is the discovery of a type Of grass
which will prev vent soil

Lauds Film Stars

Visiting in Washington with his
boyhood friend from Ireland, a
priest from Santa Monica, Cal,
whose parishioners include some
of the West Coasts famous movie
stars, says of them:
"They are as fine as you
might find anywhtre-goOd, de-
vOut, and kind. And they are as
respectful toward their priests
as the people of COnnemara."
The estimate comes from the

authority on Central Asia, and his
son, George Roerich, linguist
versed in the Asiatic tongues.
The Roerichs are trekking
through the Hingan mountains
and the plains adjoining the Cobb
desert where vast pasture lands
are found in abundance. The
rainfall in this area is less than
Is inches annually, but there are
certain pasture grasses which
through thousands of years of
natural selection, have adapted
themselves to an environment as
severe as that of our Great Plains
during the past year. The object
of the present expedition is to
find a type of grass which, when
grown in the midwestern States,
will protect the soil during Pc
RODS CT extreme aridity such as
that experienced in the past year.
Explorers of the department
have made outstanding contri-
buttons not only to the science of
agriculture but also to medicine.
A remarkable instance of medi-
cal research done by the men was
the discovery of the Chaulmoogra
tree, the oil from the nut of
which is used in the treatment of
leprosy. The tree is now grown
in the Canal Zone.
