Scholastic sports fans know
this young man quite well, par
ticularly if they followed the re-
cent basketball and baseball sea-
sons.
In basketball, Silverman was
the most dependable player on
Coach Herman Littman's squad.
In baseball, Harry was even more
than that. He was chief handy
man.
He played several positions and
played them all well. Coach Lift
man first had him at third base,
shifted him to the outfield and
in one game had him at first
base. Harry was not a strong hit
ter. but he was one of those
players who had to be pitched to
in order to get out.

Cootes,C|arke
Favored In
Tourney
BY GINO SINH

Looking over the seeded list Of
the women's District tennis tourna'
ment, which opens at Columbia
Country Club at 2 p. m. today,
veteran followers marvel at the
surprising number of new stars
which have gained first magni,
tude locally.
Out of the eight seeded entries
only Sara Moore, Mary Ryan, and
Dorette Miller have regulations
which extend beyond last season
Mary Cootes, defending cham
pion, gained prominence here by
winning the District tournament
last year, and Edith Clarke, seeded
No. 2, made only a mild impress
sion with a brief appearance IN
the Army and Navy tournament IN
the fall Of 1884.
New to Washington
Grace Parker, seeded No. 5, after
Sara Moore and Mary Ryan, is a
newcomer, and Anne Williams and
Anne Dayette, both of Baltimore,
are only slightly known to D. c.
fans. In fact, the field Of 80 en-
tries is mostly newcomers.
Ruth Martinez and Frances
Walker, for five years tops"
among feminine performers here,
have faded out of the picture.
The tournament lost a bit OF
glamour when the new City of
Washington queen, Margaret Car
specken Robinson, who yesterday
swept to the title by trouncing
Edith Clarke, 6-3, IS, at Edge
moor found herself unable to
participate due to conflict with
another tournament. Mrs. Rob
inSon would have been the favorite
in the District.
Now the favored position will
be shared by Miss CooteS and Miss
Clarke with the title remaining
in doubt until these two young
ladies have decided their personal
superiority.
Miss Cootes starts her cam
paign with a strong opponent
in Eleanor Craven. Miss Craven,
though conceded no chance of
defeating the Army and Navy
Club star, will force her to flash
some Of her better shots to win.
They meet at p. m. Edith
Clarke's first round foe is Ruth
Sewers.
Doubles entries close tonight
at 8 p. m. and are being received
by Mrs. H. Clay Thompson or
Tom Frydellat the Columbian
Country Club.
In the meantime, the City of
Washington mixed doubles
tournament winds its way to the
finals today with two semifinal
matches at Edgemoor at 4
o'clock. Schedule:
TODAY's MATCHES
p. M.-Willie O'Steen and John
Desh vs.. Christine Gawne and A. B.
Reed, Lieut.. and Mrs. Stanley r. Rob-
inson VS.. Mary Ryan and Charlie Chan
ming.
Playing with exasperating non
chalance, Mrs. Robinson noSed out
her doubles partner, Edith Clarke,
for the City of Washington sin
giles crown, just after the pair
had snatched the doubles diadem
from Sara Moore and Dorette
Miller, 81, Ga. Earlier in the
day the champions had eliminated
Bobsey Turney and Peggy Keyser
Smith, 60, 6+3, in the semi
finals. Mrs. Robinson seldom
bothered to go to the net, concen-
trating on outmaneuvering Miss
Clarke out Of position.

Russell, who has many years OF
good baseball left in his bones
he Is only % summers young
is capable Of playing any posi-.
ton on field with skill. Some
sandlot followers compare him
with the late Isl" Simons, who
was considered the best all
around man on the SandlotS.
Bill Flester, congenial manager
of the Brewers, says:
Russell Is the kind Of ball
player that all managers are
glad to have on their team.
One that you can count on in
the pinch"
Although CIV" as Russell is
better known to his teammates,
is capable Of playing every posi-
ton on the diamond. I believe
he does his best work on first
base and in the box.
Accepts 10 Chances
Yesterday Russell took care Of
the front door bag in excellent
style accepting 10 chances with
out a miscue. At the plate he
drove out two for two which
played a prominent part in the
Brewers downing the w. o. w.
Films, 8 to /, in Section A Of Ma
tional City League. The victory
moved the Beermen into tie with
Union Printers and Shady Grove
Barbecuers for first place with
four victories and one defeat.
Three thousand fans braved a
light rain to witness the game on
the East Ellipse. They saw Charlie
Booker, submarine pitcher. who
only last Sunday stopped the
champion Blue Flames with four
hits, get Shelled for seven runs in
the fourth inning and two in the
eighth.
Here's how the Brewers scored
their seven runs. Zahn, Knight
and Thompson singled in success
sion. Fee Colliere, chubby catcher,
tripled. Russell walked and Stahl
and Lyons singled.
Bob Lyons, who pitches for
G. P. o. on weekdays, turned in
neat piece of work on the mound
for the victorious Brewers. He
limited the Woodmen to seven
hits and famed five.
Rain also failed to stop two
games in Section B. Old Manhat-
tan proved it has power by defeat
ing the Regal Clothiers, II to Z,
and D. G. S. socked its old rival,
Ross jewelers. to the tune OF
5 to 3.
Beerman Get Is Hits
The Beermen pounded the
shoots of Simmons for Is hits,
Center Fielder Bell, with three
hits,was the chief contributor.
Devers' steady hurting enabled
to D. G. S. to score. Although
touched for nine hits, DeverS
pitched a beautiful ball game, be-
ing his best in the pincheS.
Police Boys Club and Pep Boys
are riding high" in the junior
division. They are tied for first
place with two triumphs and no
defeats.
Behind the two-hit pitching Of
rip" Carver, the youthful police
men easily defeated Simpsons
Pharmacy, 9 to /. The Pep boys
had a hard time beating West
End, 6 to S.
The Pep boys were forced to
score three runs in the ninth to
register their victory. In other
junior games, New Deal scored
over Clarendon, 6 to 5 and j. C..
Flood trimmed Georges, 8 to 5.

New Suggestion For
Sandwich Ingredient

The decoration of a house, the
preparation of meal or the SIM
pie arrangement of flowers, if
pleasing in appearance is nearly
always classed under one phrase.
This phrase is simple and yet
covers many pleasing things but
never anything unattractive.
Therefore, a good idea in writing
a recipe would be to include as an
ingredient, a dash of a woman's
touch. This is especially true in
the making of tiny party sand
witches on which the success of
many party rests.
GREEN SANDWICH
l cup whipped cream
II teaspoon almond extract
u teaspoon vanilla
A tablespoons confectioner's sugar
" cup chopped walnuts
Green vegetable coloring
Mix ingredients, using a few
drops of coloring to make a deli
cately colored sandwich. Spread
on one slice of thin white bread
and press half walnut on top.
DATE AND PECAN SANDWICH
Spread rounds of white bread
with dates, put through a food
chopper. Press a row Of pecan
halves around the edge.
II sandwiches are made in ad-
vance, they can be well kept by
keeping covered with a damp nap
kin.

Chicken Pie
One Piece
Banquet
Following Recipe, Topped
With Rich Pastry
Makes Fine Dish

A little touch here and there
and 10 and behold, simple dish
is turned into one piece banquet.
Now chicken pie isn't an un-
usual dish and people seldom ex-
claim over it. But that is SIM
pie chicken pie One made as fol-
lows and topped with a rich pastry
is something all together different.
CHICKEN PIE
1 A or 5 pound cooked chicken
1 cup cooked diced potatoes
l cup cooked diced carrots
l cup cooked peas
n cup flour
1-8 teaspoon celery salt
" teaspoon salt
1-8 teaspoon pepper
Cut the chicken into small piec-
es. Add the potatoes, carrots and
peas. Strain the stock left from
cooking the chicken and boil it
down to three cups. Thicker this
with the flour, which has been di-
luted with cold water to form a
smooth paste. Add celery salt,
salt and pepper. Fill large cas-
serole with chicken and vegetables
and add chicken stock. Cool. Cow
er and place in refrigerator cabi-
net until mealtime. Cover the top
with pastry made as below, roll
ed to Il inch thickness. Make
several Sits in pastry and bake in
hot oven (4O0 F.) for about 80
minutes or until thoroughly heat
ed through and brown on top.
PASTRY
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
13 cup shortening
1-3 cup butter
ice water
Mix and sift -four and salt. With
two knives or a pastry blender,
cut in shortening. Add enough
ice water to make a stiff dough.
Roll out in an oblong piece and
dot with bits of butter. Fold ends
to the center and fold again to
make four layers. Press the ends
together and roll out. Dot again
with butter, fold and roll out.
Cut with fancy biscuit cutter and
place on top chicken pie.

Ready Sliced Bread
Stops Sandwich Makers

A museum is probably the only
place where one would be apt to
find an old fashioned loaf of un-
sliced bakers bread. Comes sand
witch time and the otherwise con-
venient slice is often too thick for
the dainty sandwich. Then follows
a puzzled look and resorting to
the bullying assembly of two ordi-
nary slices of bread.
The next time this occasion
arises, the solution is easy. A
sharp kitchen knife is held over
the gas or fire and the blade well
heated. Then with the slice of
bread held in the left hand, the
knife slips easily through the mid
die of the slice and makes two
appropriately thin slices.
Try trimming off the crusts,
spreading these thin slices with
soft butter and then lay diagona!ly
a thin pickle in a bit of lettuce, or
some silver of chicken in Mayor
naise or any interesting sandwich
mixture. Then fold the bread from
corner to corner, fasten with
tooth-pick and decorate the tooth
pick with a tiny picked onion,
stuffed olive or pitted maraschi-
no cherry. Cover with a moist
napkin until ready to serve.

Potatoes AS Special
Accomplishments
Save Worry

There is no real reason why a
housewife should get the blues
when the subject of potatoes for
supper is brought before her.
The manner of preparation of
potatoes depends largely on the
likes and dislikes of her family and
she is smart to make and keep on
hand chart of the types of po-
tatoes the family likes best and
which makes the best accompani-
ment for what. For example;
fried potatoes with roast duck,
boiled potatoes with fried liver
and baked potatoes with broiled
chops. Plus many others. Here
is a perfectly grand accompani-
ment for broiled or fried steaks
gaining Tor
6 potatoes, medium sized
u pound American cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Peel and slice the potatoes in
rather thin slices. Slice the Am
erican cheese and lay aside.
Heat well creased frying pan.
When hot, add half the potatoes,
cover with American cheese, then
cover with the remaining sliced
potatoes. Fry over a low fame
for about fifteen minutes. Loosen
any potatoes that may have stuck
on the bottom with a spatula,
place plate over the potatoes
and turn so that the Drowned
side is now on top. Cover the
pan and place in moderate oven
and bake for 80 or 40 minutes or
until done. Turn out on platter,
salt well and serve piping hot.
This is sufficient for four people.
