Vacation Days Are Here

Vacation days have come.
The Smyrna Schools closed
last week after commence
ment and class exercises of
the class of 1885 had been
creditably given. It was the
first class to graduate in the
new High School auditorium
and a pity it was they had to
be delayed with and hampered
by the electric storm which
came up just as the Com
mencement Exercises were
being put on. However, it
was a fine program. The
honor students, Miss Alverna
Jones and Miss Sarah Brew
ster Jones, valedictorian and
salutatorian respectively, gave
a good exhibition Of theil
themes both of which left q
good impression on the audi
ence and reflected greatly
their training under Supt. C.
w. w. Schantz and his facul.
ty. Smyrna can we'll be
proud of its schools.

Contemplated Street Work

The Street Committee of
Town Council is waiting on an
engineers survey before ad-
vertising for bids to resurface
the lower end Of Main Street
with macadam from Chestnut
Street to Lake Como and
Union Street from Mt. Vernon
to South Street. The propo-
sition is to make the section
of Union Street a curb to curb
proposition which is a step in
the right direction. Now that
Frazier street has become one
of the nice residence streets
of Smyrna, it might be well, if
Council can see its way clear,
the macadam Union Street
Of the incest residence streets
thru to Frazier and better aid
traffic conditions to and from
that part Of town.

Burs Haze -Four Days Which Qualify Eveng Star Tournament
lSTRAgGggT OEE TNE TEE
BY w. r. Ms CALluM

Helen has AZ much power as Matt
reen ever had, but she hasn't the
grooved swing or the competitive ex-
perience or the putting touch that
AIaureen has had for years.
That same lack Of putting touch was
the factor that licked Helen in the
Middle Atlantic final round at Con-
gresSional last Fall. Not that Mrs.
Betty Meckley didn't play well enough
to win from any one. But Helen Dett-
weller, given Mrs. Meckleys putting
touch, wouldn't have been beaten by
any one that day.
The young woman graduated from
O. girls school last June. A relative,
wishing to do something nice, gave
Helen quite q considerable piece Of
money. So Helen is equipped to do
the Winter circuit this year without
stinting. It costs quite q piece Of
change to get around the way the
women do at the Florida resorts, but
the experience Is worth it, for young
golfer who hopes to 60 places. And
Helen Dettweiler may. With her
physical equipment and her will to
win she can go very far, perhaps to a
big championship some day. She has
everything but the experience and the
putting touch.
From the day three years ago, when,
as a girl who had played golf only 1S
months, she won her way to the Dis
trict championship final, Helen Dett-
weller has been an outstanding golfer.
So far the Maryland State champion
ship is the only one which has come
her way. She has been unsuccessful
in both the mid-Atlantic and the Dis
trict tournaments, although she has
been runner-up In eacn. Next year
may be a different story. If Helen pays
attention to her knitting down South

Temple athletic authorities are con-
sidering scheduling one meeting with

The opponent for the Far Western
game, If it is scheduled, probably will
be selected from among st. Mary's,
Santa Clara, College of the Pacific
and San Francisco, all Of which have
submitted offers. The date probably
will be in early December. Temple

certain if the clash would be arranged,

- James Monk Moscrip, star
Stanford end, was reported to-

hill to have recovered sufficiently from
his knee injury to start against South
ern Methodist in the Rose Bowl game.
Before leaving with part of his
team for Pasadena, Coach Thornhill
said Moscrip's torn knee cartilage had
shown definite improvement in the
last few days.
Dr.. Fritz Roth, team physician,
however, reported that the injury of
the ace place kicker would not permit
him to play more than is minutes"
With Moscrip in the lineup at the
kickoff, the Stanford coach will start
the same team that has opened nearly
every contest this season.
He will have Moscrip and Topping at
the flanks, Reynolds and Beedle at
tackle, Adams and Rouble at guard
and Muller at center. Paulman will
be at quarterback, little Jimmy Coffis

TIME girl who potentially is the
best feminine golfer ever de-
veloped around the Capital is
A. going South within q day or
two to see what she can do about
winning a few tournaments next year.
Helen Dettweiler, face pink and
ruddy with outdoor look of health.
was around yesterday with a twin
fold purpose. On Christmas day she
was delivering packages to her close
friends and at the same time telling
them "good-by" for the Winter. Helen
plans to leave Washington Saturday
for Miami, to remain in the South
for at least three months, during
which time she will play in all the
golf affairs which dot the Winter
schedule for the fair divot lifters.
Helen hopes to come back brimful
of experience and confidence, ready
to make life miserable for the rest of
the feminine players of the Capital.
She will leave. with DR.. and Mrs. L. G..
Pray Of Manor, who also will spend
part of the Winter around Miami.
The strongest hitter around Wash
ington for three or four years, Helen
has yet to reach anywhere near her
best form in golf. She should be and
possibly will be the best feminine
player ever developed in this sector,
including Lily Harper, for she has far
more in the way of strength and power
than the slim young Harper miss.
Helen should be one of those phenoms
among women who play in the middle
70s from the mems tees on a stand
ard length golf course, like Glenna
Collett Ware of 10 years back, Vir-
ginia Van Vie and Helen Hicks OF
three or four years ago, or Maureen
Orcutt, the girl who swings and hits
the ball so much like Bob Jones and
yet never has won national.
