Letitia Faces Revolt
With EXiIe'S Return

Revolution threatens the here
tofore peaceful nation of Letitia
as word comes to the people OF
Letitia that the pretender to the
throne, King Regent Mordot, is
returning from his voluntary
exile in Afric. to be crowned
King.
Princess Dellas, who was spir-
tied out of Letitia by her father,
Mordot, is not returning with
him and it is for the Princess
concern that many of the people
of Letitia are preparing their
arms.
King Regent Mordot is a COM
moner, who married the late
Queen of Letitia. After the re-
cent death of the queen, the
people refused him the throne,
honoring instead the daughter,
Princess DellaS, whom they be-
ieVe the rightful heir and should
be the Queen of Letitia in her
mothers place.
There is, however, a powerful
group demanding Mordot'S re-
turn to the throne. This group
has commissioned a soldier, La.
FAC, to bring Mordot back to
rule Letitia.

tripping Jne ugnC 1anCaSG1c
takes a fantastic number of Gallo
ries! The dancer uses from $50
to $50 calorieS per hour, depend
ing on the type of dancing she
does, while the laundry worker,
engaged in light work, uses only
143 calorieS per hour.
At the most, a laundreSS weigh
ing 1870 pounds would not require
more than $500 Galleries per day.
Dancers sometimes work on
their routineS for eight hours a
day. Allowing time out for rest,
the dancer who practices routine
all day can easily burn 1000 cal
cries.
No wonder Ginger Rogers loses
Is pounds in the making of pic
ture, in spite of drinking milk and
eating heartily to keep her weight
up.
Look at the other dancers
Eleanor Powell, Jessie Matthews,
Fred Astaire, Ray Bolger, Buddy
Ebsen. All are slim to the point
of thinneSs, for they dance off the
CalorieS.
Housework is work, and we'd
never say it isn't. but it takes
comparatively few calorieS, and
as far as your figure is concerned
it uses the wrong muscles. Dish
washing takes only 1T calories
per hour.
Sweeping at the rate Of 40
strokes per minute requires 1872
Calories per hour. The dreadful
task of the family nending uses
only 80 calories per hour!
Knitting, which is usually re-
garded as a pleasure, also takes 90
calories per hour if you knit at
the rate of % stitches per minute.
Ironing, conceded to be hard work,
uses LA calories per hour.

arms and lower legs, so that the
calorie surplus is stored around the
WaiStline and hips.
The office worker fares on bet
ter. In fact, she probably uses
the same muscles as the housewife,
but to an even less extent. The
calorie requirement averages about
the same. Tipping takes ITO Gallo
rieS per hour. Most tasks at
which you sit require around 100
Galleries per hour.
For both the housewife and the
office worker, the solution is to
make a hobby of some activity

Two Washington Girls
Win AIRCRAFT Prizes

In contest in which more than
$4,000 high school students were
entered, two Washington girls
won prizes in the tenth annual
exhibition of creative arts and
crafts, sponsored by the national
high school weekly magazine,
Scholastic, it was learned today.
They are Betty Hahn, 1915
Tuckerman st. N. W., and June
Virga, 4408 Leland ST., Chevy

POLICE MOVE
'EYES0RE' CAR

Fourth precinct police were
called on today to perform the
largest single job of the current
city-wide cleanup campaign.
A dilapidated sedan with a flat
rear tire and minus one of its
Florida license plates, got on the
nerves of residents in the vicinity
of Eighth Street and Independ-
ence Avenue Southwest. The car,
for the last four days, has been
parked on the street, apparently
abandoned.
A resident of the neighborhood
called The Washington Times to-
day, seeking means of removing
the "eyesore' from the street.
Fourth precinct police were called
on to do the job.

Wilson Tackles
Richmond Ace

Joe Spangler. Of Richmond, who
soundly whipped Stanford Car
rier, of Leonardtown, in his last
appearance here, was signed by
Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn to
meet Washington's Bob Wilson in
the six-round semifinal of Mon
day nights boxing card at Tur-
ner's Arena.
The main event will bring to-
gether Jackie Burke, the Utah
Assassin, and Lew Raymond, OF
Baltimore.
Burke is one Of the hardest-hit-
ting welterweights in the ring to-
day, and last March held Ceferino
Garcia, second ranking welter In
the world, to a draw in Los An
geles. He has had 72 fights, out
of which he has lost but three.
Raymond is an established
fighter in the East and is best
known here for his decisive vic
tory over Phil Furr in Baltimore
last summer.
In the other 10-round feature

Hardwick will report to Anna
polls within the next fortnight, ac-
cording to announcement by Lieut..
Comdr. Andy McFall, graduate
manager of athletics at Annapolis.
Hardwick plays what Navy
men proudly call Hamilton foot
ball"
He was end on the 1924, '25 and
'26 elevenS, the teams on which
Hamilton ran and passed his way
to lasting fame at Annapolis. In
the 1926 game against Michigan
at Baltimore, HardWick figured
prominently in the defeat of the
Wolverines. Benny Friedman was
the forward passing ace of the Big
Ten Conference, and was the man
most feared by Eastern critics,
and by Navy's coaches.
Hardwick set all apprehension
at rest by one of the greatest de.
fense shows ever presented on an
American gridiron. He thundered
over the line of scrimmage every
time Friedman received the ball
from center, and Benny had a
great afternoon viewing that arch
ing vault that Baltimore calls the
sky, from the broad of his back.
Hardwick ruined Friedman'S after
noon, and shattered Michigan'S at
tack at the same time.
The new coach first played
football at Virginia Poly, trans
ferring to Navy. and there win
ming his greatest fame. Not only
did Hardwick play with Hamil-
ton, but in 1884 he was recalled
to Annapolis to assist in the
coaching of the team. He had
charge of the ends. Prior to that
he had served as end coach in
1928, '29 and 81. He developed
a championship fleet team in
1880.
Tom Hamilton will leave the
pleasant scenes at Annapolis
carrying with him the good
wishes and highest esteem of all
Navy men, and for that matter
everyone who knew him. He
proved himself one of the great
Navy coaches of all time.
He staggered Army in 1884 by
beating a team which critics
picked as too powerful for the
Midshipmen. Last year in Phila
delphia his team played one Of
the most courageous games ever
seen on an American gridiron
The Washington times., 1937-01-14

The fighting DeaconS do not
figure to upset the Buff and Blue,
but the same thing was thought
about their football eleven. Wash
ington fans recall the thrilling
finish of the gridiron battle,
George Washington scoring on a
forward pass, with the ball in the
air as the final whistle blew.
Bill Reinhart expects a close
game, but naturally, thinks his
team will win.
This is the leading game on the
program that will find three Of the
local teams in action. While the
Colonials are battling the Deacons,
the Maryland TerrapinS and
Green Terrors Of Western Mary

Park.

it is not uncommon for the little
towers from which track officials
function to be erected between the
spectators and some part of the
home stretch.
And on the subject Of thorough
bred racing, would you like tc
know the percentage of favorites
and dark horses which won at
five of the outstanding tracks in
the country last year?
FaUorites Us. Outsiders
At Bowie, for instance, less than
80 per cent of the favoriteS came
down winners, whereas slightly
over Al per cent of dark horses
cashed in for their hackers.
At Harve de Grace the public
choices won slightly less than IS
per cent of the time and the out
siders a bit better than So per cent.
At Hialeah the ratio was 33 per
cent favorites and At per cent out
siderS. Arlington Park saw 81 per
cent Of the favorites click while
nearly AZ per cent of the winners
were at fat prices. Washington
Park produced 33 per cent short
priced winners and 81 per cent
outsiders.
Which proveS-What?
You can't beat 'em! .
Fact is, you can't even tie 'em!

Because of the poor perform

Defeating Army twice in three

achievement sufficient to crown a
