Now Training
WhalebOat Crew

Continued from Page One)
j. Scarborough of Chicamacomi-
co, and Sumner M. Scarborough of
Hatteras Inlet.
BoatSWain Palmer Midget, Of
ficer in charge of Pea Island Sta
ton, will be the coxswain for the
crew. Midget had experience in
whaleboat racing in the Fourth
District under Commander C. j.
Sullivan, who was transferred to
this district last month.
Two WhaleboatS have been as
signed to this district and arrived
at the Coast Guard depot here
this week. One of them is to be
taken today to Kitty Hawk Bay,
closest suitable body of water to
Kill Devil Hill station. The other
is to be overhauled and then sent
to the vicinity of Cape HatteraS,
so that men in the lower end of
the district may use it for prac-
tice.
Eventually there will be races
between crews representing the
Northern and Southern sections of
the district, but only one crew will
represent this district in compe-
titjSn with other districts.
The race on August 4th as a
part of the Coast Guard Day pro-
gram to be held in connection
with the Roanoke Colony Celebra-
ton will probably be in the nature
of an elimination race to decide
whether the Sixth or Seventh Dis
trict will race against the winner
in the Third and Fourth District
elimination for the East Coast
championship.
The race will be over a tWo-mile
course, and Commander Sullivan,
who is an enthusiast over this
particular type of sport, says he
will guarantee it to be more thrill
ing than PoughkeepSie Regatta.
In addition to this race, there will
be a row-and-capSize race between
three Surfboats over a half-mile
course. In this race, the three
crews will row for a certain dis
tance, capsize, right the boat and
row the remainder of the distance.
This,too, promises many thrills.
The WhaleboatS to be used in this
district are 26 feet long.

Under guns of machine gun
companies from Maryville and
Knoxville, the Aluminium Sheet
mill resumed limited operations.
Union leaders, however, were at
tempting a strike in the power
house which supplies the mills
electricity - a maneuver which
would halt operations if success
full.
Union leaders and police ex-
h a n G ed counter statements
charging each other with respon-
sibility for the fight in which II
strikers and four policemen fell
with bullet wounds.
Arthur Lively, chief of Alcoa
police, said his officers opened fire
only after being subjected to a
barrage of pistol bullets from the
picket line before the struck
plant. Fred Wetmore, president of
the Alcoa local of the Aluminium
Workers of America, countered
with the assertion that none of
the men on the picket lines were
armed.
The wounded policemen, Wet
more charged, were caught in the
cross fire from their fellow Off
GERS. The strikers, he said, were
retreating when police opened
fire.

The bond attorneys in New
York have refused approval of the
bond issue to date because of Ger
tain technicalities. Chairman Bur-

Ian will seek to learn from the

the county board will seek to meet
these conditions and requirements
at their next regular meeting on
July 10.
Work can be atarted on the
building just as soon as the bond
issue is approved, for the WPA
already has allotted funds suffl-
cient to begin work and probably
complete the foundations while
the bond issue is being adver-

1t was suggested that signs be
erected directing such traffic
down SINNERS Avenue to Cedar

Councilman Dilly Pappendick
suggested that the City might
look into the feasibility of pur-
chasing the Sherlock property on
PerSse Street, at the terminus OF
Fearing and opening a new street
thru to connect Fearing and Bax-
ter. The matter was discussed but
no action was taken.
Councilman Evans Blades Sug-
gested that the City take some
steps to erect warning signs of
some descriptions at certain dead
ends of streets leading on the
waterfront. This suggestion was
prompted by the recent tragedy in
which four Negroes were drowned
when their car went off the end
of Burgess Street into the river.
No action was taken.
Councilman Tom Boswell NOV
ed that the council set aside a
fund of 5000 or more a
year to be used in advertising the
city in conjunction with the
Chamber of Commerce. Merchants
Association. After considerable
discussion, it was voted that a
committee be appointed to study
the proposal.
The police report for the month
of June showed 80 arrests and rs

USE LOGICAL FORM

Dear Mrs. Post: Is there a
proper answer to make when
someone expresses thanks for a
birthday card or other slight re-
membrance? If I say, I'm glad
you liked it," then I feel that
I am assuming they liked the card
when all the person may have
said was Thank YOU" I always
find the situation awkward and
wonder whether there is some
suitable reply to be used at such
times.
Answer: If they admire the
card or think it amusing, then you
say, I'm glad to you like it," and
if they merely thank you for hav-
ing sent it then you say, You're
very welcome"

ones made today as the senate
meet early and quit at l p. m. so
that members might attend the
All-Star ball game. Opposition
senators, however, entered into
the debate by means of pointed
questions.
Senate sentiment appeared to
grow meanwhile in favor of a con-
stitutional amendment compelling
retirement of federal judges at IS,
as a proposal supplementary to
the compromise supreme court
bill on which the administration
hopes for action. Sen. Edward r..
Burke, D., Neb., No. 2 opposition
ist, is sponsoring such an amend
ment and the senate judiciary
committee plans to consider it.,
with others, at a secret session
next Monday.
Logan, informing the senate
that his successful reelection
campaign last fall was based SOLE
ly on a platform of support for
President Roosevelt's program, re-
ferred to reports that Republicans
ae considering giving support to
those Democrats who vote against
the court reorganization plan.
Roosevelt Enemies
There is a movement on foot
to bring out into the field of op-
position parties a new group" "
said Logan. THE Worshippers of
the golden calf are really behind
it. They do not like Mr.. Roosevelt.
They are seeking fund of $10,-
100000"
He added that the men behind
this movement hope to use the
Judiciary committees adverse re-
port on the court bill "as cam
paign document for a new party
to take over the Republican par
ty."
If the things said in that doc
ument about the president of the
United States could be proved, the
president should be impeached and
removed from office" he declared.
Wheeler, asserting that he was
mot in the position of some men
who were elected on the coat-tails
of the president" replied to Lo-
gan's charge of ingratitude by
saying that many leaders of the
opposition fight were "close friends
and advisers" of the president. He
named Sens. Carl A. Hatch, D.,
N. NJ, Joseph C. O'Mahoney, D.,
Wyo., and Pat McCarran, D., New,
all of whom signed the adverse
committee report.
Let us be fair" said Wheeler.
We are talking about ingratitude.
I know men who left their party
to support Mr.. Roosevelt, and I
saw the administration send men
to New Mexico to fight Sen. Bron-
son Cutting. Why did the admin
istration do that? Because he dis
agreed on one thing-the vote on
the veto of the soldiers bonus
bill.
Il saw the administration go
into his state and undertake a
persecution that never was equal
led except in the days of Harry
Daugherty, CASTOR Means and
President Harding"

PARIS STYLES
BY MARY FENTRESS

United Press Staff Correspondent
Paris, U.R)- One of the out
standing Iocial events OF the
Paris season this year was the
Diectoire Ball which was held
ir the gardenG of the Palais
Royal. Each guest was requested
to dress in a costume remlnlS-
cent of the days of Napoleon and
the Empress Josephine and most
to the big fashion houses to have
authentic costumes made special
ly for them. Many of the gowns
were in flimy fabrics made with
the very low and 2quare decollete
which is so typical of Directoire
styles.
Mainbocher resigned special
costumes for several of hiG clients
including the beautiful dark k-hair-
ed, dark skinned Princess Karam
of Kapurthala who wore silver
lame with a train several yards
long. The edge of the skirt and
the border of the train were trim
med with embroidery of emerald
stones and a scarf of emerald
green tulle completed the cos
tune. With this costume, Prin-
cess Karam wore her own magni-
ficent emerald and diamond neck
lace and a turban headdress of
green paradise feathers.
For the Baroness Almeida,
Mainbocher created a DireCtoire
dress in pure white georgette. 1t
has tiny sleeves and a low-cut
square neck decollette.
Falling from gathered fullness
in the back of the skirt was a
long straight train which she
gathered up and held draped
over one arm. Her headdress was
ruby and white brilliant tiara
in which were arranged two red
ostrich plumes, while a scarf of
vermillion red chiffon falling
from the plumes which wound
about the chin and dropped over
one shoulder and arm.

AdUlce
By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
l can climb a tree, jump a
fence. row a boat and outWalk
any boy of my acquaintance.
Ten miles is really nothing for
me, and when they've started
out with me TO- a real good hike,
I've often waved them good-by
and left them by the roadside
to thumb their way home.
This companionship has its
jolly side, but on the other hand
I'm 10 years old, and no boy
has ever said a word of love to
me in my life. Homelier girls
than I have got married and
gone to housekeeping, and I
must confess, when 1 see all the
pretty things they get for we'd
ding presents, I'm sick with
envy.
The boys all call me Fred"
because my name is Frederick.
l don't drink or smoke, and have
had no chance to pet, and be-
lieve me, Miss Fairfax, I'm
aWfully
LONESOME.
All these tomboy tricks, my
dear Frederick, impress me as
a defense mechanism you're put
ting up to conceal the fact that
you are lonesome and would
like to have a sweetheart.
Do a right-about-face and be-
gin by going off for a little
visit, if you have some nice
aunts, cousins or friends with
whom you could stay while you
are gradually assuming a more
feminine role.
When you come back, don't
beat all your boy friends at
these trials of skill. That hurts
their pride and naturally they
don't want to make love to
girl who gets the better of them
in athletics, particularly when
she finishes the 10-mile hike
alone and leaves them to thumb
their way back.
Wear feminine clothes, and
try to be a little more girly.
