- HADES of yeSteryear and mis-
givings for the new season ST.
multaneously swept through
- the minds Of half a dozen of
the citys ranking tennisers loung-
ing on the grass back of Edgemoor
Clubs No. 8 court Monday as they
watched a racket being swung with
devastating effect In the City of
Washington tournament by one yell
verton Garnett.
Memories of 1885 returned when
they remembered the similar sight
Of newcomer to local courts in the
person of Bill Breese, who in his
frst season here earned the ranking
of the second best racketer of the
city and with whom Garnett may be
strikingly compared.
Misgivings arose when they found
themselves wondering whether the
newest figure in local tournaments
was destined to follow in Breese's
footsteps.
Garnett Is no stranger to Wash
ington, having lived here with his
family all his life. But he is a
stranger to local netdom, his past
four years having been spent at Cho-
| ate School in Massachusetts and his
only appearances on Washington's
courts being within the ultra exclu-
| sive confines OF the Chevy Chase
Club.
Tall and dark, like Breese, Garnett
further resembles the No. racketer.
| who left town to assume diplomatic
| post in Canada, as soon as he picks
up a racket. Just as Breese used to
bear down with a powerful service,
so does Garnett swing with almost
super-human strength as he puts the
ball into play. And just as Big Bill
nearly burned the pants off an oppon-
ent with scorching drives, so does
Yelv pound the ball with telling ef-
feet.
| THE youth. now only 20, has been
we'll founded in tennis during the
past four years. At Choate, they nave
q reputation for turning out some of
the best scholastic tennis teams of the
country, and during Garnett's term at
the school there was no exception.
This year, with Garnett playing.
| Choate won the national interscholas-
tic team title, and few were the
matches that our hero lost.
Later, playing in tournaments. he
lost to Wilmer Hines, national
ranker, in three hard sets, 81. So.
81. In 1894 he was eliminated from
tournament by Cliff Sutter, Tulane's
| intercollegiate champion of 1882 All
of which gives you some idea of who
the boy has been playing against
and how.
Next Fall he is planning to enter
the University of Virginia, and it's not
hard to conceive at this time that
some day the kid who learned his
game on local court may achieve the
crown once held by his conqueror,
Sutter.
THE difference in atmosphere, now
that the City Of Washington tour
nament has shifted to the Edgemoor
courts, is readily apparent. While
players dress for matches in adequate
locker rooms to which they may re-
tire afterward for a shower, the spec
tator is not the forgotten man, as he

LUND INCREASES
 HIS FLYING TIME.

Within the last ten days student pilot Wilfred Lund has made solo flights in the Juneau Flying Club "Skylark" seaplane totaling two and one-half hours flying time. Lund, who made his first solo flight last summer, had a little more than an hours flying time to his credit be- fore the close of the season last fall, making a total to date of near ly four hours toward the fifty hours required for a private pilots li- cense, which permits carrying pas sengers but not commercially.
 Young Lund, who is considered by local pilots to be doing remarkably well, received his preliminary train ing in the Klemm dual-control training ship, with Pilot Sheldon Simmons as instructor.

WASHINGTON, May 8.-(Special Cn-rcspondence) HI. R. 9866, the bill introduced by Delegate Dimonc to extend certain provisions of the Wheeler Howard Act to the Terri tory of Alaska has passed the SeE- ate
 This legislation gives the Indians and Eskimos of Alaska the same benefits and privileges that are ex- tended to Indians in the States through the Wheeler Howard Act The Act itself extended to the Al aska natives the provisions of a number of it's sections but through an apparent oversight the sectior which authorizes the Secretary O. the Interior to issue charters tc Indian organizations, and without which loans cannot be approved fol the other sections, was not extended to Alaska. This bill, which was ap- proved by the House on April 6, ex- tends the provisions of this and cer- tain other sections of the Wheeler Howard Act to the Territory of AL aska. The main benefits that vii accrue to the Indians and ESkimos in the Territory will probably re suit through the sections that pro- vide for payment of the expense O organizing charters among the na- tives, authorizing loans to thes' chartered organizations, authoriz- ing loans to Indians and Eskimo for payment of tuition in trad schools, authorizing the appoint ment of competent Indians or Es kimos to serve under the Act, anC horizing the Indians and Eski- nos to organize for the purpose 0. receiving charters and thus qualify ing for the loans referred to.

Contrary to the opinion of the military
experts of other nations Italian soldiers
have overcome all organized opposition
and occupied the greater part of Ethiopia
in seven months, before the beginning OF
the heavy rainy season. Foreign military
experts guessed wrong because several
things happened which were not on the
program.
In the beginning of the invasion the
Philippians Ventured no pitched battles but
only engaged in raids, gradually falling
back to mountainous country. The Italian
shall Badoglio called more artillery in use
and, in addition, inaugurated campaign
of terror by wholesale bombing from air
and using poisoned gas.
Even with all this advantage of mod
ern equipment and machines on the side of
the Italians the Philippians could have
probably resisted longer had they not given
battle with one army after the other, only
to lose. Then, disaffection and rebellion
broke out among various tribes, preventing
of Badoglio's army was only matter of
road construction.
Dictator Mussolini in Rome announced
the formal annexation of the entire empire
which, united with Eritrea and Somaliland
makes the entire Northeastern corner of
Africa italian save for two little segmentS
still held by Great Britain and France.

JAPANESE SENTIMENT CHANGES

1t is interesting to report that the Jap
anese court-martial which tried a Lieuten-
ant Colonel for the murder of Lieutenant
General last August has sentenced the 40
year-old military instructor to death.
This is in marked contrast to the pre-
vious attitude of the japanese Army, which
has heretofore allowed defendants the full
est license in conducting a defense 1t il
attributed to the realization that the re-
cent rebellion of young miitarists was
largely due to the propaganda sent our
during former trials.
The report is important chiefly be
cause it indicates that the japanese Army
officers are beginning to realize the neces-
sity of curbing the ardOr of misguided
young patriots.

ONE CHANCE TOO MANY

We hear a lot about the &c 1000 fatal
ties that accompany the automobile wrecks
of the nation in the span of year but we
do not hear quite so much about the $4,000
deaths each year due to accidents in homes
and OH farms
In fact, the average Americans reac-
ton to stories of accidental death are Il
tcrse ''it won't happen to me!'
weekly analysis of accidents will be
made by the Census Bureau in an effort TO
reduce fatalities by making people realize
that great many of the 100000 persons
who die through mishap each year are
needIcsSly sacrificed.
What good will it do? The answer is,
mot much" Most all of us know that it
pays to be careful but we think we are in
d hurry and take chances Some of us,
eventually will take one chance too many
and that will be the end of our interest in
safety on the highways and everywhere
else
