Giants of the National Profes.
sional Football League following
his brilliant performance against
the Giants before 10000 onlookers
in the Polo Grounds, New York,
last night. The Giants won the
contest, 1872.
The contest ended Leemans'
career as college gridder. And
it is safe to say that the Giants
are thankful this rugged football
player will join hands with them
in pro games this fall rather than
being an enemy.

second quarter. In the final quar-

the extra point were futile.
Safety Allows Points
The Collegians' lone points we're
credited them as the result of an
automatic safety in the second
quarter. Wayne Milmer broke
through and blocked Sarausky's
attempted punt, the ball rolling
outside the end zone.
The CollegianS piled up 10 first
downs to z for the pros and also
outrushed them, So yards to SIS.
However, the Giants gained 1T
yards through the air, which gave
them an advantage that the Cole
gianS couldn't overcome.
The Collegians threatened only
once, reaching the Giants 4-yard
line, where their attack stalled,
mainly through the stout resist.

o YOUR lamps flicker when
you walk by the tables on
which they stand? If they
do. for 10 cents you can cure
them Of their nervousness. That is
the price of a spring action plug We
have found. 1t fits so tightly in the
socket that nothing can make 1t
tremble.
The wavering of a light usually is
caused by loose connection in the
convenience outlet. Plugs come in
standard sizes, as do sockets. Still,
when you put the two together they
do not always fit down to a minute
fraction of an inch. The plug can
wobble when its cord Is hit or the wall
vibrates.
The spring action plug has prongs
of double-back metal which creates
the flexible spring action which holds
the plug so tightly in place.
You can buy three-way plugs for
multiple purposes with this same
spring attachment in the prongs to
uldhC l1ICul StlIh. 4lC pluSo COSl ~
cents a piece.
Both plugs and taps come in regular
black or brown and in pastel colors.
1t is considered smart nowadays to
match your electric attachments to
your Dashboard or wall You can even
buy pastel cord to run from the plug
to your lamp or radio, so that it is
most inconspicuous.
When it is so inexpensive to be lux
urious. there's no reason why any of
us would tolerate nervous lamps and
radios or unsightly plugs and cords.
CooKPoTs that come to the table
are the latest boon for the woman
who does her own cooking-or for
maids day out. You can get all kinds
now, from vegetable saucepans to
refrigerator dessert trays which do
double duty for the preparation Of
food and its service.

heating the air. All right then-a
radiator on the sun porch!
The split system allows for a COM
bination of hot-air heating with
radiator heating. The single unit has
two separate and complete parts.
There Is no connection between the
combustion chamber and the air
distributing ducts-no chance for coal
gas to leak into the air ducts!
In addition, the split system for
heating water in your house all year
round without any storage tank to
the external water-heating equipment
usually required by hot-air furnaces.
This three-in-one service permits the
use Of oil burner, gas burner or
coal stoker, whichever you already
have or may want.
This combination heating system
works particularly well in kitchens.
There. Of course, radiator heat is pro-
vided. You don't want the air in
your kitchen recirculated through the
rest of the house. else you'd smell
the cauliflower cooking while you were
in the library. and you sometimes
don't need any heat at all-if your
range is working overtime. So the
radiator, easily turned on and of,
fills the bill and provides easily con-
trolled comfort.

LOW.RENT HOUSING
DECLARED FAILURE
New York Realty Head Demands
Minimum of Government
"Interference

J. Russell Thorne, president of the
Real Association of the State of New
York. in a recent address described
the Federal Governments program in
low-rent subsidizing housing and slum
clearance as terrible mess and an
"inexcusable failure" and demanded
Government interference and COM
petition with private business should
be kept at minimum.
THE most ingenious and promising
of all the financial devices advanced
by the Government is the Federal
Housing Administration" Thorne said,
''whose permanent function Is to
maintain a mutual mortgage insurance
fund with backlog of Federal guaran-
tees. Its outstanding contribution has
been the introduction of the long
term amortized mortgage in place Of
the traditional and expensive short
term first and second mortgages.
Under the reassuring protection of the
F. H. A. many tinid lending institu-
tions have been induced to release
their newly liquidated assets for small
home construction.
"The Home Owners Loan Corp, one
Of the first agencies set up, must so
far be considered as a successful ex-
pertinent in an emergency situation.
Several hundred thousand families
have that agency to thank for the fact
that they still live in the homes they
bought or built with hard-earned
savings"
