CHAMPION WRESTLER
TOTES BOY TO WIN BET

Carlton Byrd, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
T. Lee Byrd, of Mearsville, demon
strated his strength to students of
Washington and Lee University, Lex
ington, Va, last week by taking a
man weighing 124 pounds his Shout
ders from Lexington to Buena Vista.
Byrd weighs about 155 pounds. The
story of his feat is told in the issue
of the Ring-Tum Phi of September
END. 1t is as follows:
The herculean gentlemen of the
KA house were seated around the
dinner table last Saturday evening
swapping tales of muscular efficiency.
The tall stories were flying around
with increasing rapidity. His news
paper soul rebelling at such hyperbole
Charles Williams, Managing Editor
of the Ring-Tum Phi, stood up and
yelled for quiet.
GAIL right you guys he said, give
heard plenty but instead of talking
so much Pm really going to show you
something about brute strength. I'll
bet any amount of money that I can
carry man from Lexington to Buena
Vista on my shoulders inside of four
teen hours"
The KA brothers laid the money on
the line, only too quick to seize upon a
"sure thing" With the chips down,
that Atlas-like attitude left our Char
lie almost as quickly as it had entered.
1t was only gag Charlie admitted.
He didn't think the brothers would
take him seriously.
But the K. AIS refused to be let
down. Surely some man in the house
would take the bet. And sure enough
there was one. Champion intramural
155 lb. wrestler Carlton Byrd volun-
teered.
The bets were made. The rules
were set down. The odds were two
to one-$30 to SIS against Byrd. All
the champion wrestler had to do was
to carry some imbecile on his shoul-
ders to Buena Vista inside of fourteen
hours.
Trailed by caravan of cars, Byrd
set out serenely on his way with a
town boy weight 124 pounds) perch
ed on his heaving shoulders. With
more than half the population of Rock
bridge county looking on with incred-
ulous amazement at this weird pro-
cession, Wrestler Byrd, toting his
precious burden, sped along the high
way and finished up in the record time
of three hours and fifty-five minutes.
Save for a lame shoulder, there was
no harmful injury to report.

Mr.. Weisbrod has been in the brew
ing business for more than 40 years
and has been brewmaster in some of
the largest plants in Pennsylvania. It
is Mr.. Weihbrod's boast that every
plant with which he has been connect

duction schedule to keep up with the
demand for his product and it is his
intention to have the local plant run
ming on similar basic in very short

Conditions in Salisbury, according
to Mr.. Weisbrod, are ideal for making
what he calls "good old fashioned
beer. The city water is excellent for
this purpose he says.

RADIANT LIVING
Secrets of Service
BY Rev. G. nj. Griffith
Pastor Calvary nj. E. Church
Sudlersville, Md.

What startling events that had
crowded in upon Peter that morning!
All the night before they had fished,
but caught nothing. And then in the
morning came that marvellous haul
when that mysterious stranger on the
beach called out to cast the net on the
other side of the ship. Then had fol-
lowed the revelation that this strang-
er was the Risen Christ! It was He
who had prepared for them with His
own hands that wonderful Breakfast!
But now the Christ had again en-
tered behind the curtains of invisabil-
ity. But before doing so, He had plac
ed into the hands of Peter the COM
mission of Apostleship. How was he
to accomplish his task in the face of
an antagonistic world?
There came to Peters mind the re-
membrance of that net bursting with
fish. In that miraculous haul came
the solution of his problem. His task
was to be accomplished by the assis-
lance of Divine aid.
Ours to cast the net on the right
side of the will of God; His, to fill
the net to the breaking point with
fish. Ours to implicitly obey; His, to
give success.
But how was Peter to be provided
for as he gave himself fully to his
task? That breakfast was the ans
wer. In it Peter saw promise that
the Christ would providentially sus-
tain his every need.
To US no less than to Peter has been
given the commission, eye shall be

FARMER GREEN AND FARMER
BROWN

A busy man is Farmer Green
I'm sure his kind you've often seen:
When someone says, "There's wooG
to chop"
He never has the time to stop;
But when some gossip comes his way
His works suspended for the day.
He'll drop his shovel or his hoe
Or let the team stand still, and go
Across the way to hear the news,
And take the time to air his views
He simply cannot understand,
Just why this neighbor sold some
land;
And why another bought a car
He'd better pay his bills, by far;
Some bits of scandal are related,
And then, back to his work-belated
His neighbors' business is his own,
And so, quite late his fields are sown;
The corn grows short; the weeds grow
tall;
He really has no luck at all.
Now, Farmer Brown is busy, too,
And many tasks he finds to do;
He plows his acres; tills his soil;
And gets real pleasure from his tot, >
But never has the time to chat
About why folks do this or that;
And if this man has sold his shoats;
Or why another raises oats;
Gossip and scandal pass him BY
He's far too busy to reply.
Yet if a neighbor needs his aid,
He'll quickly lay down hoe or spade
And help him out, by werd or deed,
Or any way he sees the need;
And gives encouragement to those
Who come to him to tell their woes.
He's just neighbor, tried and true
This man of whom Pm telling you,
And though the name be Brown or
Green,
I'm sure his kind you've often seen.

TO A VERY YOUNG GIRL

TO A VERY YOUNG G1RL
Yes: I know-Your hair is fair.
The dimple in your chin is rare
AS are the curling lashes brushing
with soft caress
Cheeks neatly colored like a quaint,
old cameo
Of the very long ago,
In all its gentle loveliness.
Oh, Lily agree-with that long,
slim neck
You should be the envy of the Eclat
Throughout the coming years.
But have you considered the wild un-
rest;
The voluntary grief in every breast.
The measure of foolish tears?
The fellow feeling? Into each life
must come some pain:
A bit of sunshine; bit Of rain
Before glorious west.
You try to make friends? I do be-
lieve you, dear!
To make friends, or, at least, to so
appear;
But you play the wrong string for
happiness.

~ Dartmouth's involuntary in
~ PRODUCTION of a "12-man foot
4 n ball" team, the added starter
being the famous topcoated fellow
who sneaked into the heat of battle
with Princeton. So far this season
Maryland's Frank Dobson has done
very well without added starters, but
If his luck fails to hold tomorrow,
when the Terrapins face Georgetown
at College Park, he might have to issue
q call for volunteers, not necessarily
intoxicated.
On the eve of the big local battle,
with Georgetown supporters hopeful of
scoring their first victory in three
years over Maryland and Terrapin
followers rallying round their entry,
reserve strength today becomes the
biggest question. Manned two and
three deep in most positions, George
town has the reserves. Maryland. in
light of an almost startling review OF
Saturday summaries, not only has no
reserves to speak of, but has needed
none.
Almost completely unnoticed this
season has been the fact that Mary
land has played eight games so far
with only Is men bearing the brunt of
the battles. After the Georgetown
game they have two more contests.
That is the future which Dobson must
regard with only four substitutes of
any experience.

Well Manned at All Posts.

THE great Georgetown line, through
which only one thrust has pene-
trated for touchdown in seven
games, is, in reality, couple lines:
According to no less an authority
than Line Coach Mush Dubofsky,
there is no difference between the
so-called f1rst-string forward. wall and
the second-string line. In Snyder,
Nee, Cavadine, Fleming, Noonan,
Bodine, Donahue and Williams the
Hoyas are adequately fixed for ends
They have a trio of good centers
in Hardy and Fuardo and RiofSki
In addition to Frank and Shuker,
Georgetown has Tehaan, Stadler and
Hill for the guard posts. Ready to
relieve Stralka and Vaccaro at tackles
are Cummings, Petroskey, Robertson,
Brady and Gamage
However, word comes from the Hill
top that Snyder and Stadler will not
be able to play tomorrow and that Nee
Is a doubtful quantity
Georgetown's starting backfield is
likely to be composed of Keating,
Valiquette, Keegin and Duff, but Jack
Hagerty will have Moulin, Barabas,
Nolan, Dooley, Urbanski, Sheeran and
Wychunas in reserve. All have seen
frequent action under fire.
AS the teams will line up it prom
ises to be something akin to toss-up.
But, unless Dobson's luck with his
''iron men" holds out, Georgetown will
hold big edge.
