marine Service" It showed the
bravery and skill that is needed to
drive the subs" The second reel
was entitled Cairo to Capetown."
This reel showed the good will
tours made each year by the Unit

"Sprinkles of Salt" This showed
mainly the life aboard ship. The
fourth and last reel was entitled
Crossing the Line" It gave the
students good idea of what hap
pens to a "land lubber" when he,

equator. The same treatment was
given President Roosevelt when he
crossed the equator and it consist
ed Of torment and duckings before
Davy Jones left the ship.

balance not only their opposi-

well. It's the kind the lads
would rather play. and the
crowd enjoys It no end. So Har-
vey's way is the hard way, but
like SO many things I'm this life
the hard way Is the ultimate
road that is pursued. It's the
hardest kind Of q game to
teach. Basketball is of q ma
ture that lends itself to speedy
flashes of play. The teams that
employ the fast, razzle dazzle
game, are often ace high In the
opening of the game and the
opening Of the season. But the
team that settles itself to long

slower more cautious game
seems to get there ol1ay In the

BY Chuck Rattle

It's interesting to take part in the
first of anything-to be a first
nighter as 1t were. Twenty years
from now, this correspondent, per-
haps bent with old age and shaking
with the palsey, may in his travels
Che doesn't know II he's going)
journey back to this city and at
tend the Goth annual football ban
quet.
Some interesting and amusing
revelations were made at the first
annual banquet held last Thursday
evening when some 81 men and
football squad members met in the
school. It would be downright
criminal to accuse Supt. Kohl OF
being conveniently" i'll on the
night of the annual banquet. On
the night when his tie was to be
parceled out among the members
Of the squad as q token Of his es-
TEEN for them for whipping Mel
rose. That particular function was
deferred to a later date when Mr..
Kohl can with his own hand do the
fateful cutting. Seriously, it was
most unfortunate that Mr.. Kohl
could not attend. Mr.. Olson, at bat
for him in role Of POSTMASTER, told
the group that the annual banquet
was a brain child" of Mr.. Kohl,
and not to be able to see his own
work in effect on the opening oc-
casion was both unfortunate for
him and for the gathering. We
missed you, Yves!
The real truth will always
out. And Gene Harvey Is not
the tough guy that he ap-
pears while frowning on the
bench-or believing at practice.
That is according to Stub o.
son. A Church wedding, q bride,
a ring. and q minister had
Harvey's signals so crossed last
summer at the Little Brown
Church that Olson had to sub
for him and check the signals.
The sub had TO put the ring on
the finger Of Mrs. Harvev-so
Mr.. Olson saws. Oh, where Is
manhood Of yesteryear!

Here's an interesting slant on
the Late fire. Harvey, residing
Liquor Store, conceiving that
his furniture might be caught
in the path of the fire began
to move out The first thing he
seized was q Haviland china
teapot from the cupboard. A
pot given him by his father, It
was q family possession for
years. As far as he was con-
cerned, 1t would seem, the rest
of his belongings could go to
pot"
Toastmaster Olson was "hot" in
his introductions Thursday even
ing. Depicting Junior high coach
Williams as one of the fighters in
the school he said that he would
always remember Fred as saying
II won't believe it; and don't like
It,"
Switching abruptly to bask-
etball, q word about the Har-
vey style of offensive. It's not
peculiarly different, nor Is 1t
sensationally effective. It's not
even interesting to watch II 1t
gets too good; but once devel-
oped it's usefulness to MAIN
tain composure is immeasur-
able. There is very little of
quick break onslaught. The
boys come out of a melee and
proceed TO the offensive court
with three men back. Two men
rove the lower corners under
the basket and the third man
back roves through the center
lane. A steady game of passing
and alternate breaks constitut-
es the offensive. Suddenly
from nowhere man will ap-
pear in the open set for a shot.
Like bullet the pass Is whip
ped to him. It's up to him to
make the basket. It's different
than the style Benson employs
of dazzling down the floor at

New York, Aug. 2i.--(Up)-The New York boxing commission meets today to hand down It's decision on the appeal of Heavyweight Cham. pion Jimmy Braddock for c post- ponement of his September title de. fense against Max Schmeling of Germany.
 The commission has been studying medical reports for three days to determine the extent of Braddock'a hand injury which he claims re- qulres an operation that will pres vent him from fighting for four oS Ave months.
 Solution
 As Braddock's manager, Joe Gould, turned thumbs down on a proposed championship battle in Miami this winter, prospects of c hig.gate return bout between Schmeling and Joe Louis loomed as Q probability.
 While Maxie talks of caring noth- ing about money, asserting that oil ho wants Is dot title," his manager Joe Jacobs, and Promoter Mike Jacobs of the 20th Century club have well known love of dollars They argued with him oil day yes- terday in an effort to convince him that Q return bout with Louis would draw a million and c half gate"
