ANAC0STiA MAKES.
ITS DEBUT TODAY
Central-Western, Roosevelt
Tech Tits Will Follow
lndians-Wi|son Fray.

The 1888 public high school foot
ball title series will get in swing
this week with three games scheduled
in which every team but the cham
pionship Eastern outfit will see action.
Anacostia and Woodrow Wilson
battle today at Eastern Stadium in
the official opener, a game originally
set for last Friday, but delayed be-
cause of rain. Tomorrow Central
and Western will clash at Western,
followed on Friday by the Tech-Roose-
welt game at Roosevelt.
Although Eastern is not scheduled
for title game it will play this week
as it meets the Gonzaga eleven Friday
at Eastern Stadium. This tilt should
give some basis for comparing the
strength Of the 1888 edition of the
champions with that OF other schools,
as Gonzaga already has played Ana
costa and Central 1t defeated Ana.
costa, 1876, but was able to do no
better than a 6-to-6 tie with Central.
Anacostia's First Title Game.
Today's engagement with Ana
costa will be the first contest of the
season for Wilson's Tigers. Coach
Carl Heintel has young squad and
is not certain of what Wilson might
do. Anacostia with one full game
and several good scrimmage sessions
under its belt during which is showed
a pleasing variety of running and
passing plays, is the favorite, though
this will be its debut in inter high
championship football competition.
Roosevelt and Western also will be
playing their first games of the sea.
son in this weeks championship con.
tests. Western was scheduled to meet
st. Johns last Friday, but like the
Anacostia- Wilson game, this was
rained out and has been moved to
November 49, Central played Con-
zaga last Tuesday and Tech played
Episcopal High at Alexandria yes
terday.
Tomorrow's clash between Central
and Western should be particularly
interesting as each is expected to
make strong bid for the title this
year
Eastern's Reign Threatened.
Central's showing in the tie game
with Gonzaga revealed one, or two
weak points. but Coach Hardy Pearce
has been busy since then ironing
them out. At Western, Coach Dan
Ahern has eight letter-wearers and
several substitute players back from
last years squad, and with that num-
Der of experienced boys the school
has high hopes of finishing near the
top.
Easterns ability to repeat is ques-
tionable after the indifferent show
ing put up against Episcopal a week
ago when the Alexandria team won,
1870 Several of the other schools,
notably Central, Western and Tech,
seem to have as good or better
chance to take the 1888 crown. West
ern never has won a football cham
pionship, although twice 1t has tied
for top place and this year with its
strong squad may make an extra
effort.
Two other high school games are
booked Friday with Central to face
Washington-Lee High at Central and
Woodrow wilson to meet st. Adams
at st. Albens. All games begin at
$50.

CARDINALS AWAY
TO SNAPPY START
Only Minor Flaws Appear as
BrookIanders Beat St.
Bonaventure.

Indications that Catholic Univer-
sity's football team will fulfill the rosy
predictions of its followers in becom-
ing the smoothest Cardinal eleven in
several seasons today were evident in
the wake of 1870 victory over sturdy
st. Bonaventure yesterday at Olean,
N. Y.
Although displaying sporadically
ragged work in several departments,
the flaws were minor, and Coach
Dutch Bergman is encouraged over the
showing Of his club in its first start
against rugged outfit which upset
Manhattan last week.
Get Going in Second Period.
Held on even terms in the first
period, the Cardinals started to click
in the second. with John Matukaitis
and Burke Vidnovic collaborating in
advancing the ball to the st. Bona
venture 5-yard line The Brown In
dians held for downs, but Bunoskis
poor punt to his own 30-yard line
again placed the Cards in dangerous
territory.
A pass from Vidnovic to Charley
Moutenot gobbled up 10 yards and
line plunges accounted for 10 more.
Moutenot rifled a crisp pass into a
mass Of c. U. and Bonaventure
players and the ball was DETECTED into
the hands of Louis Shine, who fell
across the goal for a touchdown
Cairo converted the extra point from
placement.
The Cards took to the air again in
the fourth period to score their other
touchdown. Vidnovic tossed a pass
to Hank Brostek for 10-yard gain
and Brostek lateraled to Gerrig, C. U.
end, who streaked the remaining 35
yards to score.
Outweighed nearly 20 pounds to a
man in the line, st. Bonaventure
threatened only in the third period,
but a 15yard penalty for holding
squelched its touchdown bid after it
had moved down to Catholics 28-yard
line.
Rocco Pirro, Catholic University
tackle, was elected from the game in
the second period for slugging.

Hartnett has an aversion to work"
although he is the hardest worker in

living with his parents in Millville,
Mass, and working in steel mill at
Worcester, 26 miles away. He had
to get up at $50 in the morning
and didn't get back until 1880 at night.

hung the name "Gabby" on him. :.

Last year he equalled Ray Schalk's

only major league club with which he
has played and he has caught almost

Il ruffed the opening spade lead
in dummy and Immediately laid
down the ace Of trumps. I next
played the ace-king of diamonds,
but East ruffed the second round,
cash his king of trumps and then
knocked out dummy's last trump
with another spade. Dummy was
now reduced to only one re-entry,
whereas I needed two to establish
the diamond suit. Eventually I lost
another spade and a heart trick to
be set two on a hand that looked
to be a lay-down for six. I would
appreciate your citicism of my
play"
We must admit that in duplicate
where every trick counts, the line
of play adopted by Mr.. Long seems
reasonable. In order to make a
small slam all that was needed was
to find trumps divided 81. How
ever, in rubber bridge (and possibly
in duplicate) we would adopt a
safer course. After trumping the
opening lead in dummy we would
Immediately play dummy's two top
diamonds. True, East would ruff
and probably return a heart. We
would now play the ace Of clubs,
then trump a diamond in the South
hand and a second spade in dummy.
Another diamond ruff would estab-
lish the suit and we would then
trump. our remaining spade with
dummy's last trump. Now we would
lead one of dummy's good diamonds.
East would trump with the king
of clubs and we would discard our
last heart.
OF course if East trumped in at
any time while we were establish
ing the diamonds, we would simply
throw the heart. To go back lit
tie: if East, after trumping the Sec
ond diamond lead, returned spade,
we would then simply cross-ruff the
hand until diamonds were estab-
lished, meanwhile reserving the club
ace as the final re-entry to dummy.
We thank Mr.. Long for his inter-
esting hand. It really wasn't badly
played.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER-'Putting to Sleep

The heart beat often rises dur
ing the sleep. The heart of one wo-
man patient beat 100 times per min
ute, instead of her normal rate OF
80.
A person may be able to read
much smaller print when hypno-
tized. A French doctor reported
a patient who read letters so small
that $50 of them could be placed
side by side in the space of one
inch.
The sense of smell can be made
much sharper. One of Braid's pa.
tients was blindfolded, and was
asked to tell the names of many
persons in a room. BY smelling a
glove he was able to name the
owner, but he could not do this
when his nostrils were stopped up
with cotton.
DR.. Braid believed that hypno-
tism should be employed only by
well-trained doctors. Since his day,
it has been used by some doctors,
but it also has been made a thing
of the stage. People in the theater
have been amused when a hypno-
tized person has been made to bark
like a dog or moo like cow. That
may seem funny" but it is not
good way to use hypnotism.

The word "hypnotism" came from
the Greek language, and means
putting to Sleep A person really
does go into a kind of sleep when
he is hypnotized. 1t is hard, or i'm
possible, to awaken him from it un-
less you know the secret.
Mesmer did not use the name
"hypnotism," but he was a real
pioneer. When he "magnetized" or
"mesmerized' people, he did just
about the same thing to them as is
done when people are hypnotized.
He did not need the magnets or
wands he used. His power came be-
cause he was able to make people
think in certain ways while he was
treating them, not because of So
called animal magnetism"
An English surgeon, DR.. James
Braid, learned about Mesmer's work,
and carried out tests of his own. In
1843 he published a book in which
he said that the work of putting
people into a nervous sleep should
be called hypnotism.
DR.. Braid and several other doc
tors in Great Britain and France
hypnotized hundreds of persons. 1t
was found that hypnotism could be
used to take pain away from opera
tions. There are records of a large
number of people, in those early
days, who were put to sleep before
surgeons worked with knife or saw,
