RACING CREWS, U. WASHINGTON,
 GO EAST TODAY
Hard Competition Facing Huskies in Poughkeep-
 Regatta June 27

SEATTLE, June 13-Set to carry on where they left off last June, Washington eight-oared crew flo- tilla head East today to defend their national rowing titles.
 Although the Huskies have swept the river" for the past two years, Washington supporters are not eX- pecting another sweep this year for they realize the calibre of com petition that Coach Al Ulbrickson's s oarsmen will meet. It is quite a feat to win one race at Poughkeepsie, reason Husky adherants, and it is not in the cards to do more than win all the races for two years straight.
 Comedies Nothing
 But Coach Ulbrickson is conced- ing nothing He considers his var sity boat almost equal to the cham pions of last year, but is as yet a little disappointed over the show ing of the jayvee. Washington's best chance seems to be in the freshman race, where coaches Walt Raney and Bob Moch have developed a boat that presses the varsity in time trials.
 Navy, defeated only by Harvard in Eastern competition, is consid- cred the school that presents the most serious threat to end Wash jngton crew domination. The Mid dies have yeteran-stacked boat and have proved their prowess in races with the best eights in the East.
 Warm Up Race
 Leaving Seattle today, the Huskies will arrive in Madison. Wis, Thurs day morning, and will prepare for Poughkeepsie warm-up race, by meeting the University of Wiscon- sin Saturday, June 18 on Lake Men dota.
 After the Wisconsin race, the Huskies again board train to con- tinue to Poughkeepsie, arriving there Sunday, June 19, eight days before the big regatta June 27.

 CHICAGO, June 13.-The city council is going to do something about the size of the foamy collar on a glass of beer.
 Alderman William A wan, chairman of the tavern licensing committee of the council. says too big a collar means too little beer in the glass and drinkers are being cheated
 So the committee has proposed an ordinance to regulate the amount of foam in each glass.
 Rowan said some customers com- plained they bought sixteen-o ounce schooner and found only six or seven ounces of drinkable beer un- der deep cap of foam.

NEA serYice san writer

This is the time for mother to re-
solve that, this year, when the
children come home for Thanks
giving they are going to find her
looking younger and more attractive
than she has In years.
The house win be spic and span,
of course, the cupboards well
stocked with pumpkin pies and
jars Of cookies when the young
sters arrive. Everything will be
nice for the children and their
guests. And mother herself will
look even nicer than they remem-
bered she did. And why? Be-
cause she didn't leave all Of the
necessary chores until the last
minute. And because she has at
last realized that it isn't selfish to
take time to brush her hair, care
for her skin and hands.
Naturally, it takes good bit Of
time and effort to make hands
that have been neglected for years
smooth and white again. How
ever, with plain lanolin or olive oil
If you do not have a special night
cream, and grandmother's old fav-
orite, rose water and glycerine, II
there Is no hand lotion available
and mild bleach, the job isn't Sc
impossible as it sounds.
Plain fresh lemon juice is one Of
the most efficacious bleaches fol-
stained hands and wrists. Ever
carrot and onion stains disappear
rather quickly when rubbed with q
small slice Of lemon. One woman
we know always saves the lemon
rind after the Juice has beer
squeezed out for a pie. When the
baking is finished, she goes ovel
both hands and wrists with the
juicy side Of it. Then she applies
rose water and glycerine.
And a reader who explains that
her hands get chapped and rough
every Monday while she is wash
ing and hanging out the clothes
says that she always dips them
in warm olive oil Monday night
then wears clean, loose cotton
gloves while she sleeps. Next
morning every rough spot has dis
appeared.

STATE

Today and tomorrow will afford
theatergoers their last opportunity
Of seeing Brother Rat" co-starring
Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane
also Garden of the Moon" with Pat
O'Brien, Margaret Lindsay and jim
mie Fidler, current attractions at
the Warner Bros State theater.
On Friday the State will present
picture that all Waterbury has
been reading about, hearing about
and waiting for, none other than
the giant technicolor aviation saga
Men With Wings"
A great star cast headed by Fred
MacMurray, Ray Milland and Louise
Campbell together with thousand
and one thrills make this a picture
well worth seeing.
In a story which traces the prog
ress of aviation for thirty five years,
MacMurray and Milland will be seen
as two typical American pioneers OF
the air, while Miss Campbell plays
the air-minded woman who not only
inspires men in their conquest Of
the sky but devotes her whole life
to plane-building and flying.
This film marks new type OF
role for MacMurray, now ranking as
one Of Hollywood's moss sought-aft-
er leading men.
MacMurrays partner in the air
and rival in romance is Ray Midland,
the handsome young British actor
who scared to the top season ago
when he played opposite Jean
Arthur in Easy Living"
He and MacMurray portray the
two opposite types or airmen who
have made aviation what it Is to-
day. MacMurray, romantic, restless,
adventure-mad, flies ''by the seat OF
his pantS''-Milland is the patient
industrious painstaking man who
builds and flies better and better
planes and lets men like MacMurray
take the applause.
Producer-Director William A.
Wellman, who made the never-to-be
forgotten flying picture, wings" as
well as the more recent successes,
"a Star Is Born" and Nothing
Sacred" assembled one of the years
most talented supporting casts for
his latest film. It includes Porter
Hall, in one of his rare sympathetic
