Manders, King of Field Coal

Bear Hero IN Title Contest

and Manders' boots were the finishing
blows. A field goal beat Green Bay,
10-7, and q point won 7-6. A field
goal also defeated Portsmouth (now
Detroit), 17-l4. and tied Philadelphia,
3-3.
Won 1888 Title From Giants.
THESE were spectacular perform
ances for q first-year player but
Manders did not rest on these laurels.
The Bears won the Western division
in 1888 and played the Giants for the
championship at Wrigley Field, which
will be the battlefield on Sunday. In
one of the most dramatic and thrilling
pro games of all times the Bears won,
23 to II. Manders contributed IL Of
Chicago's points. He kicked three
field goals and two points after touch
downs
All this happened when Manders
was rookie" He's been pulling
similar stunts ever since. His toe is
part Of the reason why the Bears are
going to extremes to get Wrigley Field
in shape for Sunday, hiring a 100-yard
tarpaulin. burning the ground to
thaw it out, and piling marsh hay
a foot high to keep the turf dry.
The Bears got real scare Sunday
against the Cards. Manders was
withheld from bodily contact play as
n safeguard against injury. When
Chicago scored its first touchdown,
however, Manders was sent in the
game to kick. Standing on the ice
| he swung his right foot and let 20.
Bang! His feet went out from under
him and he landed on the back of
his head.
| Cost Bears $500 in Balls.
COACH GEORGE HALAS lost no
time getting Manders out of the
game. Jack was unhurt by his boot
but Halas was taking no more chances.
Yes the kick was good
While nationally famed for his
kicking. Manders does more than
boot. He is one of the hardest hitting
backs in the National League, a fine
blocker and smart defensive player
Bears business officials estimate
that Manders has cost the club about
$500 in footballs since he joined the
team. Many of his kicks have cleared
the north wall at Wrigley Field. He
rarely throws passes. Last year he
tossed only three but two we're COM
pleted for So yards.
Manders was born in Milbank. S. D.,

Of prep football and three years at
Minnesota. He weighs 200 pounds

Keith Veteran of Title Games

Ell n 1911 as young now as ne was
when he invaded Washington with
the Bears for that exhibition Moles-
worth is 80 and not quite as fast as he
used to be. But Keith is smarter now
and better all-around player. He
must have something for, despite his
lack OF size, he now is playing his sew
enth season in the postgraduate grid
ranks.
Molesworth was leading the Bears
to victory over the Chicago Cardinals
here last Sunday when he was knocked
out as he was tackled on the ice. His
nose was badly banged up but Coach
George Halas has a special helmet
rugged up to protect the schnoz and
Molesworth will be available for
service.
OF the Bears, only little Molesworth
and big Nagurski are the survivors of
the club that played in the 1892 cham
plonship game with the Portsmouth
Spartans NOW Detroit), which was
won by Chicago, 9 to 0.
Thus the Sunday game with the
Redskins will be the fourth in which
these veterans have been participants.
They were in the thriller with the

Some Cases Cited.

I 1P TO now. Army has permitted its
athletes to play three years at
West Point, regardless Of previous
varsity experience at other colleges
before entering the academy. Under
this category have come Light Horse"
Harry Wilson, among Army's greats,
who played at Penn State before en-
tering the Point; Tiny Hewett, who
went to Army after performing for
Pitt, and Elmer Oliphant, who COM
pleted his career at Purdue before
matriculating at the academy.
Army's contention that its athletes
held q separate and distinct position
on the three-year question led to the
famous break with Navy in 1928 and
1929. The Naval Academy, conform

rule Of total Of three varsity years

STOLE SHOW HERE
FROM RED GRANGE
Keith, Now 80, Not as Fast
as When He Ran Wild in
D. c. AII-Star Game.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,
Stan Correspondent of The Star.

~HI c A G o, Dec. g. Keith
Molesworth, the feet-footed
little halfback from Monmouth
who ran wild against an all
star Washington pro team few years
back in an exhibition game, was being
busted off today by the Chicago Bears,
who hope that his luck against Capital
opposition will hold up and that he
can repeat Sunday against the Red
skins at Wrigley Field.
Molesworth still will be remembered
by Washingtonians who turned out to
see the Bears, featuring Red Grange,
play team picked from among star
seniors from George Washington,
Georgetown, Maryland and Catholic
University. Grange played but Moles-
worth was the show. The bandy-legged
man from Monmouth ran the District
collegians ragged in one of the greatest
ball-carrying exhibitions ever seen in
Griffith Stadium.
OF course, Molesworth won't be run
ming against the same kind of oppoSi-
ton here Sunday in the Dollar Bowl
game. The Redskins aren't the Dis
trict All-Stars by any weird stretch of
the imagination. Molesworth won't
tear up the Redskins line, but he will
be DANGEROUS.

Appreciate
Any Extra
Services
The Little Niceties
Do Mean So Much
In Our Lives!
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

IT ALL comes under the heading Of
service, and it's something that
goes long way with women. You
purchase a pair of stockings, and
the sales clerk gives you q hint OF
two for washing them 50 they'll last
longer. You ask for an astringept,
and the cosmetic saleswoman volun-
teers that, IF it is for yourself,
madame, you really don't need an
astringent-a cream would be bet
ter for you" Or you purchase an
expensive foundation cream and are
told that the least bit on the tip
OF your finger is all THAT you need
for one application. You make q
purchase and are asked whether you
wish It gift wrapped" and If you
do little card is also handed to you
should you wish to have a message
inclosed. The dentist who is meticu-
lous enough to change the little
paper head pads so you know that no
other head has touched your set;
the manicurist who sterilizes her tools,
uses q paper cup in the manicure
bowl and hands you your emery board
and orange wood stick to take home
with you-they're performing an extra
little service.
These little services are particu-
larly apparent in the better beauty
salons. Recently I was delightfully."-
surprised by an offer Of "a little cream
on your face while you hair Is dry
ing" That is not only q very gra-
cious gesture but it turns the harsh,
drying effect of artificial heat into .
virtue, for the heat throws the pores
open and makes the skin more recep-
tive to the soothing, lubricating work
Of the cream. After the hair is dry
little pomade or oil or brilliantine
is applied, and then the face cream
is removed with tissues, a little loticn
patted on and complimentary make
up given. All this without charge.
It is all part OF service.
In most salons the hairdressers al
ways take sterilized comb and brush
out of sealed glassine envelope. They
start every shampoo with q little
brushing. Every permanent is accom-
panied by test curls and finished with
styled fingerwave and advice as to
how to keep" the hair-do.
Advice is by no means the least Of
these little services. Experts in these
salons or at cosmetic counters are
ready to tell you how to dress your
hair, what shade Of powder to use,
how to get the best results from your
home treatment. They would rather
lose sale than your good win, re-
member that. So do show your appre-
citation of the extra little niceties.

seen. We have all recognized out
standing examples of ceramics or
textiles occasionally at art exhibits
or at county fairs, but never has there
been this 'getting-together" Of all
the agencies interested in arts and
crafts to produce such an impressive
array Of inspiring works Of art.
In addition to the intrinsic lowell
ness OF each article, there is the over
vhelming effect of beauty as you
enter the hall. due to the ability
Of Mr. Allen Eaton to combine colors
and textures with wonderful effect.
His love and understanding for the
task he has undertaken are evident
IN the selection and arrangement of
each individual group around the
room. Beautiful as the individual
pieces are, much of their hidden color
and light might have been lost with
out Mr.. Eaton's dramatic effects.
The people who have conceived
and realized this exhibition are not
attempting to convert us to re-
turn to the farm. or suggesting that
We 60 back to the hand loom and
live as our great grandmothers did,
but in a quiet, sure and sincere way
they have gathered together the best
examples they could find to give us
something to aim at" Now that

chine age and have had to swap"

beauty Of the best Of the old arts
may be useful in our modern world,
THESE articles We're all fashioned
by people having living to make
In the last 10 difacuit years, when
there has been no money tc
spend in rural communities, in ad-
dltion to running their farms OF
otherwise making a living for their
families, they have turned to native
handicrafts and have traded them for
commodities or sold them to people
with money to buy. One group had
cedar tree given to them, which
they might have sold for a fence post
for 40 cents, but they carved it up
into animals. little dancing figures
and useful tiny boxes and realized $40
from their sale I would say that
they were economists and good busi-
ness men rs well as artists!
One farm woman instructed her
two daughters in the carding and
spinning Of cotton. She taught them
how to prepare vegetable dyes and dye
the yarn. One daughter made q wall
hanging Of a spring scene of slender
birches against background of early
new green. The other did a similar
piece of the fall ccloring silhouetted
against the smoky blue of the hills
which she saw from her own back
door. The coloring and workmanship
in both of these would do credit to the
expert tapestry maker.
Did you know that there is brown
cotton? That it grows in wooly
yellow-brown balls just like the we'll
known white ones? In a section of
Louisiana they harvest a crop of
brown cotton each year. The seeds
were brought from the Orient and
propagated by the Acadians hundred
and eighty years ago. The warm yel-
low color of the cloth made from this
yarn is most attractive, and its history
makes it doubly 50.
The two old pieces Of the exhibition
are huge hooked rug made in New
England over a hundred years ago
and delightful old quilt which came
from the South. These were loaned
by their owners and they are indeed
wonderful examples of ability. This
is the first time that have seen
modern handicrafts close to the best
of the old things and felt they could
hold their own"
n
THIS is also the first time that I
have seen Indian products dis
played as part of the handicraft
exhibition instead of in q group by
themselves. I found that they are as
much at home here as in their own
adobe houses in the Southwest. Indian
pottery, baskets, blankets and silver,
as well as woodcarvings Of the Spanish
Americans north of Santa Fe, find
their place with textiles from the
Carolina mountains and iron works
from New Hampshire.
I feel about this exhibition rs
always do at the end Of a symphony
concert-thankful for the hope and
the inspiration that it brings-regret-
full that it Is finished.
I do wish the Department of Agri-
culture, that Is responsible for bringing
this to us, would find some way to
keep q permanent exhibit of these
things. What an incentive to Amer
ican handicraft If we had q museum
in the National Capital where such
things as the great hooked rug and
the exquisite old quilt might be kept
safely, for future generations to see,
in addition to a collection of the best
modern handwork which might point
the way to future achievementsl

He stoore he ,pould haze no traffic
Nth cats.
WE FELT pretty sorry the other
night for a man we know. His
wife had Just adopted cat. For
weeks he had been telling her it was
4 silly idea, it was a nuisance, he'd
lave nothing to do with it, he didn't
like cats and if she got one she'd have
70 take the entire responsibility Of it.
The result was that there was a
very cute little cat rolling around the
middle Of the living room floor. And
The man Of the house was having a
terrible time keeping a stubbornly
sour look on his face. You could see
that he was itching to jangle his keys
m the cats face. But he didn't dare
after all he had said.
His wife. very wisely, said nothing
She just played with the cat.
As We said, we felt sorry for him.
But, after all, he got himself into the
pickle to begin with. We think hus-
bands with determined wives should
Be very cagy in their opposition to
things like cats. Because the time
may come when they'll find that they
really enjoy things like cats. And then
they have such hard time eating
their words. JEAN.

Choose Dress That
Doesn't Detract

nEAR MRS. POST: VIII you please
explain about the attendants s
clothes when the bride is not wearing
wedding veil but simply every-day
clothes In this instance she Is wear
ing very beautiful wool suit with fox
collar and very becoming hat and at
tractive accessories. BY the law Of
suitability I suppose, too. ought to
wear a suit. But I have none that Is
not worn looking. and to buy a winter
suit with any degree Of warmth would
run into more money than I can afford
to spend at the moment But I do
need street dresses and afternoon
clothes and am perfectly willing to put
forth extra effort to buy something
very good looking of either type. But
with the bride in . suit, may I wear
a dress. and If so, what kind2
Answer-Cant you get smartly
tailored street dress. Of wool. or Of
the materials that look like wool? In
fact, don't know what else you mean
by a street dress. In other words,
when bride is not made the central
figure by means Of her white dress and
veil, her maid Of honor should be care
full to choose q dress that goes with,
but does not detract from. the costume
Of the bride As q matter of fact, q
plain wool dress with . smart but
simple hat will make . better foil for
her fur trimmed suit than the similar
suit you yourself would buy If you
could.
DEAR MRS. POST: We have
customer who has asked us to
suggest the proper wording for invita-
tions to the wedding reception she is
giving following the wedding of her
son. Since this Is something we have
never heard of, we do not know what
to advise. The invitations to the
church will be sent out by the parents
Of the bride who live in a boarding
house, and could not possibly afford to
give reception at hotel. Do we
word the invitation "Mrs. Albert How
ard requests the pleasure of your COM
pany at the wedding reception of
their son, James Howard, and Miss
Mary Blank"-leaving of his title in
this case and using hers. or just what
are we supposed to do?
Answer think If possible you
ought to persuade your customer to
give a reception for Mr.. and Mrs.
James Howard as soon as they return
from their wedding trip. To give q
reception on the day Of the wedding
would announce to every one that Mrs.
Howard Is doing what Mr.. and Mrs.
Blank failed to do. But after the
bride and groom return from their
wedding trip such Z reception will be
entirely suitable, and wording for the
invitations Is - follows:

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I have a
friend who has become a perfect
pest. She comes to our house every
night, frequently before we have had
supper. She Is always there so when
we 60 visiting we have to take her
along and impose her on our friends,
who don't like her. We can never plan
q foursome Of bridge or little supper
without counting her in. She never
reciprocates by giving anything for us
or anybody else. though she Is better
of and has nicer house than most
OF US. What can you Go about such
situation7 A VICTIM.
Answer-Your only salvation Is to
make your deadbeat 80 ar CRY that she
will never put her foot in your house
again. You probably haven't the
nerve to tell her to her face Just what
. nuisance she has become, 80 write
her q frank note and tell her that
while you will be glad to set her occa-
sionally that she interfere, In your
plans by coming every night and that
you can't give up all of your evenings
to her.
There Is no use in dropping a gentle
hint or even giving her the cold shoul-
der because she Is 50 selfish she con-
siders her own pleasure and ,onyen-
ience and doesn't care rap how much
she bores you or upsets all Of your
plans.
I confess haven't q great deal Of
sympathy for people who let them
selves be victimized by these gr Alters,
who take all and give nothing IN re-
turn. 1t Is only cowardice and weak
ness that makes them submit to such
impositions, and they pretty vel de-
serve what they get.
