Kirk Miller Says:

(COnt. from First Sports Page)
Jim Farley, so a wrestler stands
with a boxer.
'Tf wrestling needs regulating,
let it be regulated by wrestlers
who understand the aims and
ambitions and rules Of the game.
"YOu do not see old wreStIers
going around on their heels and
punch drunk. Farmer Burns
wrestIed until he was IS or so
years Of age. The kind of wrest-
ling the public gets is the kind
it will patrOniZe. Promoter Joe
Turner has given them all kinds
to test their taste. think wrest-
ling needs no regulation here,
least of all by a boxing commits
sion which looks on wrestling as
a bum does bathtub."
Mr.. Mackey wrestled around
washington and other cities for
years and has sound convic'
lions about the game. However,
there isn't boxer or former boxer
on Washington'S boxing board nor
on most boxing boards. The orig,
inal idea of Major Ernest w.
Brown, chief of police, Mr.. Mackey
was to have an athletic commits,
sion" locally, under which all
sports would come-not just box
ing and wrestling.

DooIy and Ralph
In Spotlight
BY GINO SINH

Dooley Mitchell, former D. C..
No. l player, will have to dig UP
some of his old-time form to stay
in running in the District mems
tennis tournament singles today
when he clashes with the fighting
Ralph McElvenny at Columbia
Country Club in a quarterfinal
match, weather permitting.
Yesterday McElvenny dished up
as brilliant a comeback showing"
as District tennis has seen this
season when, after being complete
ly overwhelmed by Frank Goeltz
in the first set, he pounded GoeltZ
literally off the courts in the next
two sets to win, 1-6, "a, Ga.
In the meantime, Mitchell was
turning an Indifferent showing
against the hard-trying but far
less talented Deane Judd. Dooley
won 60, 81, 90.
Steps Up Game
But Mitchell has the knack Of
stepping up his game to match
the opposition and enjoys nothing
better than winning an uphill
match, so he goes into today's
match the favorite.
McElvenny early this season
demonstrated that he still is capa-
BILE of superlative tennis when he
took set from Donald Bulge at
Pinehurst.
Just how far Tony Latona has
whipped himself into his best
form will be made evident today
when he clashes with Price Col
vim at S o'clock. Latona, always
late starter, seldom displays
his best game before July. He'll
have to be at his best to stand
any kind Of a chance against
the Baltimorean.
Welsh on Guard
Lieut.. John K. McCue, Of An
napolis, is expected to do little
more than give Barney Welsh,
defending champion, a terrific
battle before bowling. However,
since the Joe Louis fiasco, any
thing can happen and the Rock
vile Rambling Rocket will be on
his ps and qs in case and if
Hugh Lynch climbed a notch
or two in the experts rating
when he forehanded Fran
Shore, 60, 81.

Game In Need
OF Central
Board
By GINO SINH

When Barnard p. welsh, ST.,
and Louis I. Doyle foregather,
tennis is usually the topic and
local tennis is in for a thorough
"going-over," and lot of practical
and progressive ideas go flying
through the air with the greatest
Of ease.
Such a foregathering occurred
at Columbia Country Club a few
days ago, and many pertinent sug-
geStionS were overheard which
would be a wonderful boon and
boost to the game locally.
Most important topic discussed
was the crying need of a strong
central organization to supervise
and promote tennis in Washington
and vicinity, and the two genial
gentlemen agreed that they would
support such an organization
intellectually.
Week Long Journeys
Another vital local need Is
that of COMPRISING tournaments
into one week, beginning on
Monday and, ending on Sunday.
Only in this manner can Wash
ington tournaments attract out
of-town players of top-flight
caliber.
Invading netmen, forced to
pay their own expenses unless
friends offer a home for the
time they are here, find the ex-
pense Of an extra weekend too
much,
1t would be as easy to devote
the first three days Of the week
to opening rounds, with a Sun
day qualifying round for local
unranked players, the two opined,
and that would leave Thursday,
Friday, Saturday and Sunday
free for the quarterfinalS, semi
finals and finals with an extra
day of grace in case Of rain or
other interferences.
Cost Too Much
Welsh and Doyle also agreed
that public parks tennis is the
incubator Of future local stars
and voiced regrets that the cost
is too high for youngsters. They
feel a price reduction would be
a great boon.
The popular Rockville attorney
found occasion to boast here of
the four public courts built by
the PWA at Rockville which will
be available to all players at ten
cents an hour per court, not
player.
Welsh expects those courts to
bring forth many of the city'S
"first ten" in few years.
Mitchell COncurS
Listening attentively to the dis
course of the two Socrates of
tennis were Dooly Mitchell, Sec
ond only to Barney Welsh, jr.,
in D. C. tennis, and Harry How
lett, Columbia tennis pro, who
nodded assent as each sore spot
Of the local game was probed and
remedy evolved.
It was an accidental revival
meeting" which may have vital in
fluence and effect on District ten
mis- in the future.
It is understood that for the
forthcoming Middle Atlantic singles
at Edgemoor Country Club, a
dozen club members have offered
to take care Of out-of-town entries,
which will be another ostrich
feather in the hat of Genial Jack"
Gray, Edgemoor Club majordomo.
Gray isn't leaving a stone I'M
turned in his drive toward max
ing Edgemoor Club one Of the
leading tennis centers in the East.

PEACH GROWERS ASK
CHAIN STORE AID TO
RELIEVE SURPLUS

Chain store organizations of the
East and Middle West today extend
cd a helping hand to California far
mers when they pledged cooperation
to western peach growers in a ma
tiOn-wide campaign to increase the
sale Of canned peaches, and thus re-
lieve California growers Of a large
surplus which has threatened to
surfeit the market.
Because nature smiled on the Pa
cific peach orchards, the farmers
this spring found themselves on
January first with more than six
million cases Of fruit on their hands
and a new crop coming on. Faced
with ruinOus prices brought on by
this surplus, they appealed to chain
stores throughout the nation to aid
IN dlsposing Of the unusually large
supply.
Normal sales, the farmers said,
would not dispose Of the surplus,
which on January first Of this year
was 2.727, 900 cases more than the
surplus at the same time last year
In response to this appeal. the
National California Canned Peach
Sale is to be inaugurated April 10.

CHILDREN VS.. SPINACH
LOUISE S. QUACKENBUsM

I have to cat everything soaked in
green juicel" Marty paused a mo-
ment, then added: Would you like
TO hear how my sister solved the
spinach problem
"Yes," eagerly nodded Mrs. Bates.
sister Edith has four children.
Three Of them have always liked
spinach, but Buddy was a reaction
airy and there was a battle royal
every time spinach was served. But
a wise general knows when to
change tactics, so Edith changed
hers. Before she served luncheon
she asked Buddy If he wished any
spinach. Buddy could hardly believe
his ears, because heretofore he had
not been consulted. So he answered
No thank you
Edith prepared luncheon as usu-
al except that this time she really
glOrified the dish Of spinach. It was
well drained and chopped fine, sea-
soned just right and buttered. and
instead Of sarnishing with merely
sliced eggs, she arranged the spin
ach on a pretty platter in four
mounds, each topped with a daisy
made of the hard boiled eggs-yel-
low center and white petals. It
looked so pretty, the children ling
cred over the meal. Buddy's mouth
dropped when ne was omitted; no
one paid any attention to him. The
next time he was asked whether he
wanted any spinach he replied, Yes,
please. j.
"Oh, it's nearly 1--WE" cried Marty,
jumping up to go, land talking
about spinach has given me an ap-
petite. / think I'll cook some"
After Mrs. Bates closed the door
upon her caller, she repeated to her
seif. ms a good general who
knows when to change his tactics.
But Marty had returned and was
saving. II came back only to remind
YOU that IL all else fails, there are

Speaks On Democracy
The speaker Of the afternoon was
Lyman BTyson, former director of
the Des MOines Forum. He spoke on
Democracy and Education" and
said, ''No people that has ever
adopted a Democratic form Of gov
eminent has ever abandoned Il. The

which calls for the most effort on
the part Of its citizens We must
learn to trust the expert in govern
ment as we trust the engineer, the
builder, the lawyer, the teacher" he
said. I'VE venture our lives in city
traffic; we take for granted the au-
tomobile mechanic has made good
job; that the doctor knows his med
icine; we continually depend upon
the moral character of the average
workman and this kind Of faith we
must have in our government.
ut is our duty not to deceive our
children as to what a democracy is.
They must be acquainted with its

will be urged to take advantage Of
the sale and to stock up on the de-
lectable fruit. and special recipes
for the use of peaches are to be adj
vertised widely.
In their plea to the chain oTgani-
cations, the California growers also
asked aid in the permanent stabili-
cation of the market, through the
use Of the facilities of the grower
to-cOnsumer retail outlets.
A Canning Peach Sterilization
Committee. headed by H. C. Merritt,
Jr., Of Tulare County. California, is
handling the nationwide drive.
The peach growers are not ask
ing for charity" said Merritt in a
statement issued from California.
There is an UndevelOped market
for canned peaches which can be
tapped only through intensive adj
vertising and selling efforts on a
wide scale. The chain store organi-
cations, with their thousands of re-
tail outlets in every state in the ma
ton, have the facilities for moving
the several million cases of peaches
whose sale must be speeded In or
der 70 stabilize the industry for the
coming season. The only way to do
this seems to be by asking help from
the chain distributors. They have
helped growers before through their
selling and advertising
facilities and we think they can
help US now in our crisis"
