LEADING TEAMS
RISK RECORDS
ON TECH COURT
STANDING OF THE TEAMS

Two of the leading teams in the
Washington tt mes S. Community
Center Basketball League see ac-
ton tonight, although not against
each other.
Play tonight at Tech High finds
Regal ClothierS, tied for first place
with F.. B. l., trying to jump ahead
of the G-men at the expense of
st. Martins in the opening game
at 1880 o'clock.
The nightcap sends the third
place Senate Beer Five against Lit.
tie Tavern.
REGAL HAS EDGE
OF the two top-flight teams, Re
gal has much the better chance to
improve its standing in the VIC
tory column since st. Martins
can't stack up against the power
full Clothiers whereas Little Tav.
ern, though tied for last place with
st. Martins, is capable of Spilling
any team in the league if it gets
a few breaks.
Regal showed plenty in down.
ing the strong Delaware and Hud.
son quint in non-league game
in the Basketball Jamboree last
week, and in its first league start
knocked Columbia Beverage out Of
a tie for first. Showing smooth
working team Royals displayed q
nifty pair of guards in Pickles Wal.
ker and Ackey Viana, who scored
nine and eight points, respectively.
Viana in addition put up a great
defensive exhibition. Stocky Bob
Smith also helped the cause along
with nine points while Mike Raedy
came through with six in the short
time he played.
TOO MANY G,MEN
Senate Beer, in losing to FBI
was a little off in its shooting.
This is not meant as an alibi be-
cause the G-men were just too
strong any way you look at it,
but the Beermen would have made
it a little closer had they got
their usual share of the breaks
and can be expected to come back
with renewed vigor tonight.
The "hamberger boys" how
ever, are overdue in their efforts
to crash the win column and have
the players to do it. Warren Red"
Swift, one of the best guards pro-
duced y Central, has developed
a keen scoring eye of late and
with Bud Thompson and Wilbur
Bus" Cross to lend aid may spring
a surprise. Big George Beach and
Snookie Kemp are also ready to
break loose and tonight may be
the night. ... .-..... ...--
Preceding the double-header will
be the first of a three-game series
for the championship of the Com
munity Center's Indoor Softball
League, starting at $40 o'clock.
Victory Post, winner of the first
half championship, will meet
Treasury which snatched second
half honors from the Legion team
the last day of the season and
then defeated it again in the play
off Of the second half tie.

Of the tropics with the sweet-smelling
herbs of temperate climes.
The composition of curry powder
varies to such an extent that in India.
where different meats and fish demand
their own individual curry, there are
some 40 different methods of prepar-
ing the powder!
The famous spice houses of Europe
and America also specialize in their
own recipes, into the making of which
go turmeric, black and cayenne pep
per, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, cinnamon,
allspice, cardamon and caraWay seeds,
coriander, cumin, fenugreek and other
tabled names. Not content with such
variety, India adds almonds, anise,
cocoanut and cocoa oil, various nuts,
garlic, mangoes, saffron salt, tam
arlnds, and so on.
Care in grinding and mixing the
ingredients is the secret of good curry,
whose origin is of international in
terest. It is said that when the early
English. French and Dutch were
squabbling over settlement Of the
coveted spice islands they took some
of their cooks along. Friendly ex-
change Of ideas among these dones-
tics resulted in some of the celebrated
Eastern connections, one being curry.
