Victories Tone Teams.
VICTORIES recorded by three local
teams the past week may be just
, the tonic needed to bring out the last
bit of possibilities latent in George
Washington, Maryland and George
town. When G. w. won two straight
games from Richmond and Villanova,
when Maryland whipped the Navy
ink at Annapolis, and when g. u
licked its own complex by downing a
supposedly superior Pittsburgh team,
starting guns may have been sounded
in the ears Of the players OF all these
schools that will not fade away until
the end of the season.
It already had been noised about
that George Washington had the maxi
ings of q great team, but Maryland s
victory over the Middies and the Hoyas'
extra period win over Pitt were con-
vincing. All three schools have play
ers capable of making any team in
the country, but what is more. all
three play together with teamwork
that bellies the comparatively short
time they have been together.
Stars With Teams Here.
THE addition of Tommy O'Brien,
pot-shot artist extraordinary,
gives George Washington high
scoring forward to team with Ben
Goldfadden. while its center. Hal
Kiesel, never left anything to be de-
sired. The recent play Of Milton
Schoenfeld and George Freilichex,
with Capt. Tuffy Leemans at guard,
creates something Of a dilemma for
Coach Bill Reinhart when he chooses
q starting lineup.
Maryland's Vic Willis gives the
Terps a potent punch at center, and
with Al Waters. Bernie Buscher
Charley Keller, Knocky Thomas and
Waverly Wheeler, Burton Shipley
finds himself blessed with material
in no raw condition.

foot of flesh and graft it on the heads
of six of his Hoyas, he'd have q world.

goat. There was l, all alone with every
bit of the equipment, cameras, coats,
hats - everything.
"As I turned again l saw that the
last eruption had opened up new
crater right below me in the bowl.
Hot lava started to spit up over my
head and down the mountainside My
first fear was that all the other camera
men had fallen into that boiling crater.
But as I looked down the mountain
again ! saw them running like hum
dred.yard sprinters. One of them was
ahead of the Others by a couple of
hundred meters "a piece of hot lava
had hit him in the back of the neck.
by this time the heat was un-
bearable. scorching. grabbed the

pounds. The one thought in the back
of my mind was that if I lost the
outfit I'd lose my job. began to
stagger down the mountain with the
heat so intense that it scorched my
face and hand.
about a hundred yards ahead Of
me was Villain, carrying the camera
and its case. We managed to reach the
cogwheel railway. but it had gone.
and all the guides with it. The only
way for us to get down was to scramble
an impossible job with all the
equipment, because the side of Vesu-
vius was almost vertical at that point.
Suddenly VILLAIN shouted: Santa
Maria, Bill, left the film up therer
Stupidity I asked, What fiim?' He
answered, The picture we just shot -
I'm going back for it. yelled at him.
Don't be a crazy fool. to hell with the

pulled all the wires out and put the
camera in the box. We had every
thing all put away ready to be carried
down the mountain when, sure enough,
there was terrific explosion. And -
it was beaut! Like sixteen-inch gun
going off right under you. ! hollered
over to Villain: There's sound for US:
set 'em up again
But that wasn't the way the guides
felt about it. The moment the big ex-
plosion went of they began leaping
and slithering down old Vesuvius.
by the time Viliani and l got set
up again the explosions were booming
at shorter and shorter intervals. Each
explosion was louder than the one be-
fore. The entire top of the crater was
shaking under our feet. The lava was
flowing out OF the cone into the dish
shaped part of the crater. Presently
it began to stream over the crater's
lip and down the mountainside to the
right of all US camera men. This lip,
by the way. is only ten feet wide.
From it there is sheer slope an the
way down to the town below.
Suddenly Villain grabbed his
camera box and hoIlered: Run, Bill!
Run for your life was too busy to
run. and shouted back 'Why? At that
moment another explosion shook the
ground so violently that was almost
knocked off the lip of the crater. Boy!
That scared me.
Il looked around in fright and saw
that every single one of the camera
men on my right had disappeared.
There stood five tripods. with cameras
all set up. and not single man in
sight. Was that shock? VILLAIN was

that l had left behind the sits, the
most essential part Of the recording
mechanism. So I had to follow Villain.
''All this while lava was shooting
down the mountainside to a deafen-
ing barrage of explosions, the crater

ing our lungs. We couldn't see more
than three yards through it. We were
scared to death, but Villain got the
film and I got the Sits and we found
our way through the sulphur fog back
to the cogwheel station.
''Villani had served with the Italian
army all through the war. but as we
reached the station he said: Never in
those four years of war was I 80
terrified
well, there we were, with no
chance to get down the mountain.
Any moment the whole top of vesuvius
might blow off, 80 we figured we
would be just as safe on the lip Of the
crater as two hundred yards below.
For lack of anything else to do we de-
cided to 60 back and salvage the rest
of the stuff. don't know how many
trips we made - maybe fifteen, may
be twenty. But we brought down not
only all our own paraphernalia but
that of the others too. We even saved
their film. Then we sat and waited.
Finally one Of the guides got up
enough nerve to come up in the cog
wheel car and get US. We loaded all
the stuff on board, with the explosions
booming all the time and the lava
streaming down. When we reached the
bottom of the mountain a group whose
faces were white with anxiety were
waiting. When they saw we had
brought all their stuff they positively

But, of course, not all the dramatic
and colorful adventures are expert
enced on the battlefield. Let us con-
slider one from the saga of Bill Jordan.
In person he is husky fellow with
round cherubic face, blond hair and
blue eyes. In 1929 he was covering
practically the entire continent of
Europe, with headquarters in Rome.
With him was an Italian colleague,
Ettore Villain. 1t was in June OF that
year that the cap blew off the crater
of Mt. Vesuvius - with devastating
but highly pictMable results.
The eruption had not been unex-
pected and Villain had made arrange
ments with the chief guide to tip him
off when it was imminent. But news
reel competition was particularly
tough in Rome, and while they were
attending to final details at the Naples
station another train pulled in from
Rome with camera men from Para
mount, M. G. NJ, Pathe and all the
other companies. So when they finally
reached the lip Of the volcanoes crater
all chances Of a scoop seemed to have
vanished.

lip with all these cameras set up."
relates Bill. "Viilani was separated
from me by about hundred feet.
Alongside. on my right, were all the
opposition camera men. For some time
we worked there. getting pretty good
pictures.
"But the sounds from the volcano
were pretty tame. I was terribly dis
appointed. The thing would make a
little puff and out would shoot a
column of molten lava. ! knew what
they would say about that in the

FOUR DISTRICT BILLS
GIVEN APPROVAL
Uniform Narcotics Law Among
Those Reported by Senate
Committee.

The Senate District Committee to-
day ordered favorable reports on four
local measures, including the bill to
apply the uniform narcotics law to the
District. The other three we're:
Establishing the uniform sales law
10 the District; authorizing Govern
ment departments to make necessary
arrangements in connection with hold
ing of the Boy Scout jamboree here in
1887. and bill to clarity provisions of
the District Code on the subject of
bribery. All except the last measure
are Senate bills.
Corporation Counsel Prettyman and
Peoples Counsel Roberts explained
that the uniform sales bill does not
change existing law here fundamental
ly, but clarifies it. He said there is
confusion at present in legal disputes
relating to simple sales. The bill de-
fines the rights of the vendor and
vendee. Roberts said it does not deal
with conditional sales, which are to
be handled in separate bill.
The committee postponed for further
study the so-called habitual criminal
bill to provide more stringent penalties
for second and third offenses of
