three should be Henry Picard. Gene
Sarazen and Horton Smith.
Sarazen always Is big threat-the
type of golfer who can win in the
stretch If he has his chance. Picard
is one of the best golfers I ever saw. I
figure Picard and Horton Smith are
about due and one Of them should
break through"
These three belong around the top.
But when you figure in such stars as
Harry Cooper. Jimmy Thompson and
so many others Who can move along
in a hurry. the odds are high against
any single starter Picard and Horton
Smith may be due, but Mac Smith
was due 20 years ago.
One of the greatest golfers of all
time still is on the trail of his first
national open.
How about Harry Cooper? Here is
another great swinger who has been
hammering away for the last 10 years
in a vain chase.
Definition Of Timing.
IF THERE is any expert who should
know something about the art or
science Of timing the name Is Walt
Disney. He is one Of the masters in
this respect. So I asked Mr.. Disney
Just what he had to offer as a defini-
ton for timing. Timing" he said,
"s taking your time at the right time" ="
This seems to be about as good an
answer as we can think Of. At least.
the big part Of timing is taking your
time.
know q well-known amateur golfer
who has been teaching his son. He
has the boy Of Is now in the low 70s.
And the main thing I taught him, u
he told me, was not to hurry his
swing-to keep thinking In terms Of
being lazy. This matter Of hurrying
shots Is one Of the vital weaknesses in
most average golfers. If q kid is
taught to think in terms Of swinging
and not in terms Of hitting he is
headed in the right direction"

Best Pitching Sta6,

A s PENNANTS usually are won by
the best pitching STATS, it might
not be q bad idea to see how they all
stand after a months play.
So far the Cardinals have made the
top showing in the National League,
with the two Deans. Parmelee. Walker
and Hallahan. and this outfit still
looks the toughest one to stop.
The Cubs 50 far haven't been get
ting quite the pitching they expected,
but warmer weather should remedy
this.
The Red Sox staff still is in doubt
The main burden has been thrown
upon Grove and Ferrell. who can't
carry the team all Summer.
Indians and Yankees have both
been getting consistent pitching, but
the Tigers will have their chance with
Rowe. Bridges, Auker and Sorrell once
the Cochrane cast gets together in
tact.

with the illustrious past of the neigh
hood where the Grant School is
located.
Other interesting class rooms into
which I peeped for a moment and
wished might remain for an hour
were those of Miss Louise Donohoe,
Miss C. H. williams, Miss Christine
Holzberg and Mrs. o. H. Denn. Mrs.
DEM teaches type Of school that
you and I didn't even know Of when
we learned our three RS" It's called
the opportunity group" If you have
been unfortunate enough to have had
scarlet fever or measles and missed
the required time from your classes
because of quarantine regulations. you
do not have to lose out on being trans
ferred with your former classmates.
You are simply placed for a season
with a smaller group under a special
teacher, who swings you ahead as fast
as you can mentally digest her presen-
tation of the subject matter.
Learning to Read Is Fun.
|. Learning to read, too-as I saw its
processes in Mrs. Barbara Cheney's
first grade at the Grant-must be
such fun that you feel as though you
would like to begin all over again.
Puppet shows fashioned by the
children themselves depicted the Lit
tie Red Hen and other fascinating
children's stories. Orange crates
crudely but realistically depicted farm
buildings with words trailing activi-
ties every single time. These same
words, too, were being reviewed in a
first-grade newspaper and in large
sheet reading books of their very own
| set upon class room easels, while an
intriguing calendar also self-fashioned
recorded cloudy, snowy and sunny
days IN way that would contribute
to reading f1uency.
In the front downstairs hall of the
Grant School is portrait of Gen.
Grant done in oil by Ulke, that fine
Washington artist whose daughter,
Miss Florence Ulke, was for many
years teacher in our public schools.
Col. U. S. Grant, Sd, the grandson
of Gen. Grant, pronounces 1t a most
excellent likeness" so we are told.
On April 4. 1882, upon the 10th
anniversary of the birth of that great
general whose name the Grant School
so proudly bears. golden jubilee of
the schools service was held under
the auspices of the District Of Colum-
bia Parent-Teacher Association, of
which Mrs. Joseph Saunders was then
president. DR.. Ballou. superintendent
of schools, representatives of the Old
est Inhabitants Association and Col.
Grant were among those present to do
honor to Gen. Grants memory and
the occasion. A school scrap book
fittingly treasures for posterity Ger
tain mementoes of this anniversary.
This succinct sentence from the re-
marks OF Col Grant, distinguished

grandson Of his great grandsire, Is
worth treasuring for posterity: "Our
Nations survival rests with our chill
dren and their education in the public
schools Of our land"
Neighbor Of G. w. U.
Today the Grant School is neighbor
to the George Washington University,
with its 5000 students from all parts
Of our own land and foreign countries
bringing an academic atmosphere
right up to Its very door. The build
ing at 2l00 6 street, built before the
Grant School had come into being and
for the past decade the ONCE Of the
president Of the George Washington
University, is now being demolished
to make way for the Hattie M. Strong
Residence Hall for woman students.
The final word in collegiate and
architectural planning, it will again
bring to this neighborhood of the
Grant Scho9l an eclat similar to that
which it enjoyed when it was one of
officialdom's strongholds.
AS If to tie up the Dos still more
closely with the present, within the
past week DR.. Cloyd Heck Marvin,
president Of George Washington Uni
versity, has shown us a letter from
Mrs. Robert w. H. WEIGH, wife of the
pastor Of the Strawbridge Methodist
Episcopal Church in Baltimore, telling
how, as Clara Ashley, she lived at 20l2
G street when she was a little girl.
Her father, she adds, came to Wash
ington from Allegheny College at the
beginning Of the Civil War, when his
graduating class enlisted as a group
in the Pennsylvania Volunteers. De-
tailed for duty at the Signal Corps
camp of instruction near Arlington, he
later became private secretary to Gen.
Myer, for whom Fort Myer was named
After the close of the Civil War he
came to live in the vicinity where
the Grant School was later located,

in the house which is still standing as
2012 q street. AS chief clerk Of the
Weather Bureau, which was then con-
nected with the Signal Corps, with
Offices on G street near Seventeenth
street, he was long a resident Of this
neighborhood with his family. Who
knows-perhaps he was one Of those
who successfully pleaded the cause for
changing the schools name from AN
