NEW YORK. Feb. 14.-Rayon has
more than doubled its output since
1929, and could repeat its perform
ance over an equal period of time In
the future, declares Brookmire spe-
cial report.
THE unique characteristics of
rayon, in particular its wide range of
adaptability as to color, weight and
luster, indicate that further large
expansion in usage is ahead OF this
product.
In relation to the value of other
fibers produced and importeO, rayon
ranks second only to cotton-as Is

Value of Textile Fibers.
Total value

"Present-day rayons are made less
lustrous in appearance With greater
flexbility in taking dyes than any
other textile This most important
style characteristic of rayon includes
the ability to control the desired de-
gree of luster by incorporating a
chemical change into the spinning
solution and thence directly to the
yarn. Such is impossible with any
other textile fiber. Therefore design
ers who are concerned solely with ef-
feet are using rayon in increasingly
greater volume, and this includes all
the leading style houses.
With a fiber imbued with such a
wide range of adaptability as to color,
weight and luster. it is almost inn
possible summarizes Brookmire. Ito
come to any other conclusion than
that further large expansion in usage
is ahead for rayon."

Bing Miller
DislllayedBy
Highs Work

Bing Miller, coach of Henderson
high school Bulldogs, was anything
but happy today, after seeing his
charges go through one of their
worse practice sessions yesterday aft
ernoon ~. 49,
Miller had the boys in the. gym
nasium Monday and Tuesday, drill
ing them on plays, and Wednesday,,
he gave them an opportunity to show
what they had learned. They failed,
dismally, to impress the coach, who
said it was the worse drill session a
squad of his has turned since he
came to the local school two years
ego.
William larry, Townsville boy, was
shifted to the No. lineup to replace
Ed Rem, who has incurred the
wrath of Miller, and, at present, is in
the "dog-house,' plastered with an
indefinite Suspension. larry showed
up fair for green material, and may
have some promise.
Beddingfield, lanky end, pulled UP
during drills with a Charlie horse"
and will be out until Monday.
Miller plans to drill the boys on
the plays, and to keep at this until
they absorb at least one or two of
them.
A week FROM tomorrow, the team
opens its season against Fuquay
Springs here.

made up for a lot they don't know
ahout their positions with fine COM
petetive spirit. They are both scrap
pers of the first rank.
Maloney will be stationed at the
left tackle post while Davis, in addi-
ton to doing the blocking on offense
will back up the line on defense.
Rounding out the Duke lineup viii
be those four regulars from last year
Bob O'Mara at fullback, Eric Tip
ton at right halfback Dan Hill at CEN
ter and Fred Yorke at right guard
and other members of the team will
be in much the same situation as the
sophomores in that they will be MAX
ing their first varsity starts at their
posts.
Willard Perdue, shifted from block
ing back to end this spring, will start
at the left flank post, with Bill Bailey
a sub in 1885 who was out last season
due to an injury, at right end. Bob
Haas, sub tackle in 1886 but not
q candidate last year, will be at the
right tackle job. Bob Baskerville, "a
sub last year, will be at left guard.
At the quarterbacking job will be
Bob Spangler, blocking back for the
past two seasons Spangler will be
at a post entirely new to him. He
has never carried the ball from scrinl-
mage before. His showing at the
new assignment in fall drills has not
been impressive but he appears to be
improving slowly and may look bet
ter under fire than he has in scrim-
mage sessions
Running on the second team at the
last workout were Jack Berry and
Leonard Darnell, sophs, ends; Jack
Hardy and Frank Ribar, subs last
season, tackles; Bob Alabaster and Al
johnson, subs in 1887, guards; Spenc-
er Robb, 1887 reserve center. Willard
Eaves, reserve last season, Cy Hennis,
sophomore, Roger Robinson, 1887 sub,
and Frank Killian, sophomore, backs.
