Regardless of the side upon
which your sympathies may lie,
it seems that the best answer to
the problem is to permit the fox
in those counties that are built
up to sustain the sport, trying to
keep them together in one Sec
ton. Close this section to bird
hunters, and let old Mother Ma
ture take care of the balance be-
tween bird and four-footed depre-
dator. She will not be found
wanting.
Bounty on Brush
In all other counties, place a
bounty on the brush that will
make it worth while for the coun-
trySide to hunt them.
Such a solution is open to criti-
cism from both sides, but can you
think of anything more fair? II
so write in. Any good clean argu-
ment is to be relished, particularly
when each side has SO much right
to sustain it.
The Clarendon Chapter Of the
Izaak Walton League Of America
is offering a fine rifle and scope
for the hunter that brings in the
most crows feet between now and
the fifteenth of November.
The prize is on display in the
window of the Waterman Hardware
Store, Clarendon, Virginia.
Squirrel hunters report poor
hunting in nearby Maryland, only
a few nut crunchers being bagged
and their condition reported as
poor. Our guess is that the tou'
laremia plague is about again.
The quail crop is so short In
Virginia this year that there are
petitions in quite a few counties
and also one Statewide, to have
no open season on this game this
year.
Virginia has a problem that
flares up and RACES upon the
slightest provocation-the protec
tion of the red fox for those
sportsmen that hold the hunt tc
be the epitome of sport.
The bird hunters claim, and II
must be said in all fairness thai
they are right, that the red foz
kills far too many birds, that they
should not be protected anywhere
and in the section where they
are we'll established there should
by a bounty placed on them.
How About Expense?
But then, how about the vast
sums spent and the thousands
and thousands of acres of lane
that are held by these followers
of the brush, that actually suS
tain whole counties. 1t would be
quite hard for those same coun
ties to place a bounty or an open
season on Reynard. 1t is claimed
in return that in the very orchards
and fields in which they release
their quarry that while doing sc
they kick up covey after covey OF

The summers toll was indeed
a heavy one. Walter Dick, the

some Pied Piper playing a we'd
ding march and, with the great
responsibilities of married life,
finds himself unable to don a

shortly after Dick had gathered
himself a wife, Coach Young had
to congratulate Chick Yackel,
All-Chesapeake Conference tackle,
on his marriage.

ter, in a very sympathetic and
understanding strain, regretfully
informed the Eagle mentor that
his star guard of two years had
accepted a scholarship to Ling
nan University, Canton, China.
But Young kept smiling until
shortly after Labor Day when the
first practice session of the season
was to begin. Early that morning
he walked out into the street and
prayed for the safe arrival of a
car with Pennsylvania license
plates. That car would have two
of his greatest hopes Barty Bart
lett and Benny RenScoter. AS it
drove up Bartlett stepped out with
a bandaged hand, but the big hulk
of Benscoter was not to be seen.
Letter Tells News
A letter had come instead to
inform the already sad football
mentor that young Mr.. Benscoter'
215 pounds of a coach's prayer for
tackle, had decided to take a
course in forestry and football at
Penn State College.
Chick, Bugs, Dick, and Benny
all gone-the nucleus for world
beating small college football team
or, for that matter, a big time
football team.
Though somewhat disheartened
when he faced his small group OF
twentyeight members that after,
noon Walter Young still managed
to smile as he has for these eight
years of tough luck. He now
hopes good fortune may follow
him for the remainder Of the sea-
son and that injuries may not
arrive, for he has sufficie n t
material for a starting lineup, but
is short on requirements.
Returning to the backfield are
Harold Toner, a hard running
long kicking and accurate pass,
ing full back: Peanuts Howard
and Johnny Struble, pony PACKS
of dynamite; Bartlett and Ralph
Winslow and Wade HanSborough,
for two years varsity performers.
Two recruits of slight promise
have also put in appearances, Dud'
ley Rodgers, a tall 190-pound speed
ster from Bay Shore, L. l.. and
Bus Treharne, another 160-pound
Would-be-back from Nicksville, L. I.
MI rn~kn, DNoS~no&
In the line Young has Joe Brit,
ton returning at center, but a
freshman who set western Penn
sylvania on fire last year may
give the boy from Bristol. Pa. a
run for his money. Eed Rauche,
the prospect, tips the scales at
only 100 pounds, but Young likes
him because he is a ball hawk,
fast moving and quick thinking.
The outstanding competitors for
the guard posts are veterans Jack
Rhodes, former all-city star at
Tech; Sammy Maize, who played
at center last season, and q for
mer Western High School back,
Hinkey Schneider.
Joe Carlo, last years captain,
will once again hold down a tackle
berth, while Kimber Shoop, a COLI
verted end. and Bill Fox. a two
year scrub, are the outstanding
applicants for the other tackle po
sition.
One sor homore and two fresh
men are waging a close fight for
the starting end positions when
the team opens against Washing
ton College October 3. They are
Pete Stink, rangy youth from
Hicksville, L. l.; George Brown, q
boy of Hebraic extraction from
Freeport, L. l., and Freckles Cooke

the weekend.

Tomorrow. Eastern engages

The game between Central and
Gonzaga will be the first for the
two teams. Both have pract1ced
earnestly for the past three weeks
and should wage an interesting
tussle. Central, by virtue Of its
heft and experience, is a heaVy
favorite to cop.

Eastern, like Central and Con

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Martha came home from school end looked at the hall clock. Ten minutes past four. She would practice until ten minutes past five. No, maybe she would do the other half after dinner when her mother was doing the dishes.
 She set the chronometer to ticking and began her exercise. Mother called downstairs. "Oh, are you home, dear? That's @ good girl. Do you know where Lonny b?"
 No. But there's 8 freak anl- nal down at the railroad and all the kids went" Chronometer and etude began to synchronize again and mother sighed. T wish the children were more alike. Martha never gives me the least bit Of trouble, but I never know where Lonny is." /
 Everybody, including teachers. remarked at Martha's strong sense of duty. She kept her head above her and knew every minute just what she was going to do next.
 What Escaped Notice
 In appearance and character she was sterling child. That she was calculating had seemed to es- cape everybody's notice. Dozens of friends, but no close ones. One person was no more important to her than another. She herself was likeable, but not too likeable. She conformed, but usually in the way she wished to. Not always. how ever. She rather gloried in mar- tyrdom and doing things she pre- ferred not to.
 Lonny struggled in after while. He called upstairs, You home, nom? Here I am. You oughta seen what saw. Some big umpas or something that filled Q whole freight car. You oughta heard him snort. Worse than a tiger"
 This time mother came down. It was always necessary to check Lonny up. to see if he still had both shoes, both ears and his scalp. His clothes usually had to bc peeled off, for he had c strong penchant for wrestling. and if a gutter was convenient, 50 much the better.
 Today he was Q mess. He'd had to pummel his way to the front line to see. and some of the big boys weren't so obliging. Besides, his books were muddy. The news papers she had glued over the cov- CTS hung in tatters. "Oh, Lonny. you make me want t0 cry" she chlded him. q don't know what to do with you"

The Truth About Diet

 Short Cut To Dietary Knowledge
roDAY's HEALTH QUESTION

e. Is tho amount of gray hair likely to be increased as e result of having one permanent wave c year by an experienced operatorP Is there any scientific basis for the belief that gray hair is the result of insufficient iron in the system? If so, could the condition be im- proved by the use Of foods recommended for their iron content? Can the increase of the number of gray hairs be prevented by use of cod liver oil as a means Of im- proving the vitality?
 Alone permanent wave O year would probably have no effect on the color of the hair. It does, however, cause the hair shafts to break.
 There Is no proved con- nection between the amount of iron in the system and the color of the hair, and 1t is probable that cod liver oil would be of no service in preventing grayness, though it might serve a useful pur- pose if the general nutrition is below par. Even then 1t would probably have no ef- feet on the color.

THE GREAT ALCOHOL DEBATl

THE GREAT ALCOHOL DEBATE
 For Q while nearly every mail brought 0 number of letters from school children who want authorita- tive information about the effects of alcohol. From the specific character of the questions in these letters, I suspect there is a great debate ap. preaching.
 Phyllis requests information on alcohol as a stimulant and as Q medicine.
 That's easy. Alcohol is not Q stim- ulant. It is e depressant and mar cotic, but 1t never stimulates.
 There is no scientific or even common sense argument to support the notion that alcohol has any health value.
 The use of alcohol by physicians, as narcotic or as fuel in limited degree, is strictly a medical ques- ton, not one which school children can discuss or debate intelligently or to advantage. think some of the funny things we were taught as school children, concerning alco- hol, were injurious, and the plain truth properly taught might have done good.
 If the school children must have arguments about the effects of alco- hol-physicians and scientific folk in general have no arguments about it. the chapter on alcohol in Fish, CT and Fisk's How to Live" Funk & Wagnalls, publisher) will give h em considerable ammunition. This book is available in every lib- rary.
 When a dose of alcohol is large enough to cause any appreciabie change in the circulation 1t is in- variably in the nature of depression rather than stimulation. For inc stance the brief sensation of inc creased warmth and the surface flushing are due to depression of the vasomotor nerves which control the arterioles, the minute vessels relax and the warm blood from the vital centers and internal organf rushes to the surface where it res mains longer than it should. That in part accounts for the well known susceptibility to freezing when 2 person exposed to severe cold takes alcohol in any form. The q. {. inlag- ines it is warming him up"; iF facs it is dissipating his vital heat. AIco- hol warns you up about as well af Q dose Of rcd pepper does.

 "A woman is truly beautiful when she is radiant with health, vivid with enthusiasm, keen in her intel- lect and warm in her human ul- derstanding and sympathy" says Eleanor Royce, lovely young English dancer.
 "As long as the features of . girls face aren't actually out of proportion-l1ot really hoEmely-- they matter good deal less than many people seem to think" the slim little dancer continued.
 Perfect features may be esseHi- tial for mere prettiness, but for real beauty they aren't necessary at all. IT Q woman has clear, soft skin; if her eyes are lovely; if her smile lights her face, and she is vibrant with health, I defy the most critical connoisseur to say she isn't beau- tiful," Miss Royce ended her aSl- Rlysis.
 "Then the girl who with her hus- band has created Q considerable furore among lovers of exhibition dancing went on to talk about mag netism."
 without 1t no woman can be beautiful. It springs largely from an overflowing vitality, which Is,
