Brewing beer dry, light.bodied and berry
isn't Just our idea of what is best. Look at the
great beers of the Old Country for which high
premium prices are asked, often as much as
20 and 80 cents glass Or, look at the beers
that are most popular in this country. You
find that wherever good beers are brewed, the
dry, light-bodied beers are,the most popular.
Most people in and around Baltimore and
Washington drink Gunther's Beer. 1t isn't just
little bit more popular, but by iar the big.

Don't you think perhaps you're missing
something mighty good if you're not real

Gunther's just once and we're sure you'll be
amazed and pleased by its dry beeriness.

HAMILTON SC0FFS
| AT EARLE'SPROBE
Special Legislature Cali
Branded 'WhiteWash'
"f0r Governor,
By the Associated Press,

John Hamilton, chairman of the
Republican National Committee, said
last night great many people in
Pennsylvania believed the special leg
islative session called by Gov. George
H. Earle was an attempt to white
wash" himself and other Democrats.
Pinch-hitting for news commen-
tator who is on vacation, Mr.. Hamil-
ton spoke over a radio network.
The top political news was Gov.
Earle's call for special session Of the
Pennsylvania Legislature to investi-
gate "the charges of graft and cor
ruption against his administration
which have been sweeping through
the State since early in the spring."
MIR. Hamilton said.
Gov. Earle, Mr.. Hamilton declared,
was attempting to shift the scene Of
the investigation from the courts to q
legislative body made up predominantly
of Democrats who were friendly to his
cause.
'Shrewd observers rather imagine" I"
he continued, that when the picture
is completed the courts will continue
their investigations of the matters in
volved as they would in the case Of
any ordinary citizen, and the fact that
men in high places are involved will
not stop the orderly administration Of
our laws"
Turning to another subject, Mr..
Hamilton said there were reports that
most American officials, in travelling to
Europe, used foreign passenger ships
in preference to American-owned
vessels.
Some in Washington suspect, he
said, that the reason is the officials
have seen confidential testimony re-
ported to reflect lack of discipline, SAIL
ing uncertainties and other incon-

if it is a serious business, then it had
better steer clear of another very SER
ious business, indeed a highly organi-
zed "big" business, Intercollegiate ath-
letics. For this big business has it's
own exigencies: those who won't meet
them had better keep out.
That big business substitute spec
tator psychosis for actual participa-
ton, cheering sections for playing
teams, an orgy of sports-goods equip
ment for costumes fit to have fun in,
large business staffs with long-term
schedules for the old-time impromptu
challenge of natural antagonists,
monotorous physical drill for learning
to play by playing, pressure from
fellow-students for zest to play, the
exhibitionism of star performers for
the satisfaction of playing we'll be-
cause it is more fun to play game
we'll than badly. The sum total of
these things is hysteria, lost motion,
the death of the amateur spirit, and
an athletic system that competes with
study instead of supplementing and
strengthening it.
We have all known these things for
years, unless we have been ostriches
or Rip Van Wrinkles. But | repeat,
they don't prove fatal so long as un-
dergraduate education is run in low
gear. In fact, I should insist again
that, so long as education is run in
low gear, these things are better than
idlesness. But there is something bet
ter still, and that something is anna
teur athletics, amateur athletics of a
quality no college can achieve so long
as it is meshed in with the new kind
of athletics, the big-business kind. The
educational program now going on at
st. Johns must have the support of
amateur athletics. 1t must have 1T,
because amateur athletics is rich in
terms of health, recreation, skill, and
coordination. To get that support,
it will expand it's intramural athletics.
More varieties of sport will be offered
and more facilities. Our colleges are
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise., 1938-12-02

often abusively called country clubs.
I want to see St. Johns offer the sort
of athletic facilities a good country
club offers. Every game we now
play we shall continue to play. except
that the six-man football we started
this year will replace the standard
game. In addition we want to expand
water sports, with particular empha-
sis on sailing. The alumni have al
ready given us one sailboat; we shall
acquire five more.
Finally, it is essential, not only that
games be played at the College but
that they be we'll played. A tutor
with wide athletic experience will be
placed in charge, but he will need a
number of student assistants. To Sc
cure good assistants, we propose to of
fer athletic scholarships. In my own
limited experience, this will be the
first legitimate use to which athletic
scholarships have been put by an
American college. I think you may
rest assured there will be plenty of
excellent candidates. 1 hope you will
help me find the best candidates.
Sooner or later, l hope sooner, the
present system of semi-professionaliz-
ed intercollegiate athletics will hang
itself. When it does, the problems
that caused US to take our present
stand will disappear. When it does,
we shall doubtless play games with
other colleges as naturally as such
games were once played. Meanwhile
athletics at St. Johns will be for the
student, not the student for athletics.
In closing I want to say that Dutch
Lentz and John Donohue, who are re-
signing from our staff in June, laid
the firm foundation for the intramural
system we will follow in coming years.
This College owes both of them debt
of gratitude for the extraordinary
work they have done in protecting our
student body from the gross exploita-
ton that exists in so many institu-
tions. All who worked with them will
remember them.

who withdrew from intercollegiate
athletics when they entered medical
or other professional work. They
withdrew because they knew, along
with everybody else, that you have to
study to earn an M. D. while ordinar-
lily you don't have to study to earn a
B. A. The undergraduate fills in his
idle time with athletics, which at its
most professionalism is a lot better
thing to fill idle time with than some
other things I know. But suppose
there isn't any idle time? Suppose
there is just enough leisure time for
healthful outdoor games? Then every
athletic trip becomes crisis and not
what is known as an "athletic ex-
cuse." For students who are really
doing serious work know without be-
ing told that you can't "make up" for
something you should have learned
but didn't by using the magic word
"excuse." An excuse may square you
with the Dean. It won't convert ig-
norance into knowledge. There is no
reason on this round earth why secur-
ing a liberal education is an under

ious business than acquiring a medi-
cal education in a medical school. But

CAUTIONS ABOUT
RABBIT FEVER
DIR. r. HI. Riley Tells All Who
Handle The Game To Be
Careful In Handling

With the hunting season under way
and with rabbits on the menu again,
DIR. r. Fl. Riley, Director of the Mary
land State Department of Health, eau
tions hunters, market men, housewives
and cooks, and any others who have
occasion to handle the game, to be
sure they bag, or buy, healthy speci-
men. only, and to exercise special care
in skinning the rabbits and in pre-
pairing the meat fr the market or for
the table. Cooks and housewives are
advised that all rabbit meat prepared
for the table should be cooked thor
oughly.
GAIL of these precautions are urged"
DR.. Riley cotinued, "as safeguards a
gainst contracting rabbit fever. Ii
you are hunter or food handler you
probably have heard of the disease
and know that it is contracted IN
handling diseased rabbits-wild rab-
bits, particularly. While it is IA
miliarly known as rabbit fever, it is
also listed in the text books as Tula-
remia, from the place in California
in which it was first identified.
"The disease spreads from animal to
animal through the bite of infected
ticks, or of certain kinds of flies. 1t
attacks wild rabbits, particularly. Do
mestic rabbit, as a rule, are free from
it, probably because they are not ex-
posed to ticks. Human beings con-
tract the disease either in handling,
skinning or cutting up the meat of
the infected animals, through the bite
of infected ticks, or in crushing the
ticks. The infection can be absorbed
into the system through an open cut,
or even the merest scratch in the skin.
Severe cases have occurred through
rubbing the infectious material into
the eyes, while preparing the meat for
the table. The disease has even been
contracted in handling the fur of in
fected animals.
Fortunately not all wild rabbits are
infected and sportsmen are warned to
be on their guard against the animals
that move slowly or that seem to be
sick, and to kill only those that are
lively and alert and that move quick
ly.
eff you handle the game or prepare
the meat for the market or the table
use the following precautions:
"Use rubber gloves. Don't handle
the game with bare hands. If it is
impossible to use rubber gloves, wash
the hands thoroughly with soap and
water after handling a rabbit.
"Don't allow the meat or fur to
come in contact with any scratch or
open cut in your skin. Keep your
hands away from your face and your
eyes.
"Burn all papers or wrapping that
have been in contact with the game.
"Be careful in handling rabbit fur.
Don't give the fuzzy tail or the left
hand foot to the children to play
with.
eff you buy your rabbit meat for
the table, have the rabbits skinned
for you.
"Cook the meat thoroughly. Com
plete cooking destroys the germs OF
the disease"

BUDDY" BAER
in POCOMOKE
THIS WEEK
City Visited By Famous Pugilist,
Aspirant For Worlds
Heavyweight HOnOrs

Pocomoke was visited this week by
a rather famous parsonage, when con-
sidered pugilistically, as he is an as
pirant for heavyweight honors. He
was no less "ringster" than "Bud-
dy" Baer, brother of Max Baer, an
other fighter in the heavyweight divi-
sion, and scheduled to enter the squar-
ed circle with the winner of the
Schmeling-Louis fight, which comes
off in June.
Baer was in company with his man
ager who had some business in this
section, and their stay was so short
as to give no opportunity for an in
terview. In his latest fight. he was
returned the loser; it is understood
he is to be given a return battle.
Many hopes had been placed upon
Baer as possible contender for Louis,
and one who might bring back the
pugilistic championship to the white
race. He is young, big, and a good
prospect yet.
Not many weeks ago, there was an
other unique character who passed
through town on his way to South
America on a $4,000 job. His name
was Charles A. Courtney, of New
York. His speciality was opening locks
to which either the keys or combina-
tions had been lost. He did it by his
very keen sense of touch and also of
hearing. He is wizard at this kind
of work and has been in much demand
al lover the country. He stopped at the
Powell Tourist home, and he had many
interesting stories to tell of his ex-
periences in getting people out of diff
ficulty.

Dear Mr.. President:
AS retired farmer who is inter-

nes, be it little or big, 1 wish to ex-
press my opinion as to certain con-
ditions existing at this time.
You have boasted that you are a
friend to the under dog, however,
these under dogs of whom you speak,
are now forced to follow the dictates
