'FEUD ENDS AS
.RIPPY FORSAKES
PUBLIC COURSES

Missing from the sports calen,
dar this summer will be one Of
the bitterest golf feuds ever to
take place in Washington. And
as a result a new Public Parks
champion will be crowned.
The feud which caused consid-
cradle eyebrow raising every year
was the Claude Rippy-Andy Oil
veri rivalry which annually has
been one of the seasons high
lights. The heat was on-but def
nitely when these two squared Oft.
Those days are gone forever,
though, as Rippy is no longer one
of the pay as you play clan, hav-
ing forsaken the public courses
for the more sedate club member
ship at Congressional Country
Club.
CLOSE RIVALRY
Rippy, as one of the topnotch
players Of the section when he Is
playing regularly, may be heard
from more than casually this sea-
son when the bigger tourna-
ments begin to roll around. He
has the very good habit Of knock
ing them slightly less than a
country mile off the tees and
when his short game is clicking
he's a pretty. tough hombre to
beat. Oliveri will attest to that.
Rippy also is money player from
the word go, which accounts for
more than one Of his victories.
Last year Rippy holed a birdie
on the final hole to beat Oliveri
by one stroke in the qualifying
round. Oliveri also plunked in
birdie, but a misspent shot
somewhere down the line cost him
the local title.
Two years ago Rippy scorched
the course for a record score of
270 for the 72-hole distance and
then went on to the finals of
the National Public Parks tourna-
ment at Farmingville, Long Is
land. Close on his heels through
out, though, has been Oliveri.
ANDY DID WELL
In the national tournament at
San Francisco last year, Oliveri
did more to hold up the local
honor than did Rippy. While
Rippy was defeated in the first
round of match play, Oliveri held
on, but finally had to succumb to
Bruce Mccormick, the eventual
winner.
With Rippy out of the way,
Ol1veri should have little or no
trouble walking off with the hon
ors this season, although Bobby
Burton and James Gipe may
have something to say about this
in the final analysis. Both Bur
ton and Gipe came along at fast
clip last year and placed three
an6 four in the District, reSpec-
lively. But it is doubtful they
are ready to jump to the fore and
offer a very serious threat to
Oliveri.
The short, Squatty Oliveri, like
Rippy, bangs them out straight
and far from the tees and has all
the shots in the bag at his COM
mand. So, barring unforeseen &C
cidents, Washington will crown
Andy the new public links cham
pion this year.

any but the true followers Of the
sport. 1t was just a plain drill
on how to pitch.
GLARING FAULTS
The effort to get the pitchers to
pivot into the correct stride rather
than striding into a pivot was at
tended by real labor. KrakauSkas
has developed a fault Of Striding
too far, with no pivot. The result
has been that he had to fight him
self into getting his arm after the
stride. His control was ruined.
Chase had developed even more
pronounced faults. He was over
striding, under-pivoting and not
getting enough whip in his arm
at the finish of his delivery.
Wesley Ferreli was called in as
one of the board of examiners
but Ferrell has a style that is all
his own, with peculiar shoulder
roll at the end of his delivery. He
could do little except Straighten
the boys out in the matter o1
striding straight for the plate
They had been striding all ovel
the place and trying to throw in
direction entirely opposed to the one
in which their bodies started.
Getting these kids squared
away is of primary Importance"
Harris said. They were bad on
Sunday, but we know that they
have power. They've got 10
start using it. In another two
weeks they should be ready to
go in major league style. I hope
they will be ready"
And Harris told the positive
truth when he said that!
The infield, or three of the in
fielders put on show yesterday
they worked hard, but truth to
tell, Travis didn't break on some
balls the way he should. I'm told
that Travis is a great Shortstop
Maybe he is. He can hit, and his
fielding is all right, all things con
! Sidered.

Shorty Chumbris, former Cen
tral High School ace, and veteran
shortStop of the team, has def
nitely been assigned to the lead-ofi
position, followed by First Base
man George Knepley, with Third
BaSeman Waverly Wheeler lodged
in the third spot.
Bill Bryant, centerfielder Of the
Terps, who led the club in hitting
last season with the spectacular
mark of .424, is down in the
cleanup position. Following Bryant
is Mike Surgent, husky left fielder
of the Shipleymen.
JOHNSON SIXTH
Then comes Eddie johnson, sec
ond baseman, who slugged the
apple at a .412 clip last year to
take the runnerup post in the
willow department.
Lefty Chumbris, with a swat
record of 1852, or Hugh Keller,
sophomore star, and brother Of
the redoubtable Charley, now the
prize rookie with the New York
Giants, will hold forth in the sew
enth niche, pending which of the
two clinches the right field posi-
tion between now and the opening
tilt.
Then follows the catcher, and
bringing up the rear is the pitcher.
At the present time Joe Crisafull
and Robert Burns are staging a
stern fight for the firStString
catcher job to take over the post
so ably handled but left vacant
by the withdrawal of Knocky
Thomas in the late stages of last
weeks campaign.
ARRAY OF SLUGGERS
Maryland should present an
array Of sluggers that will portend
no good for the average college
hurler to be faced this year. Proof
of this can be attested by the av-
erages Of each player for the 1897
campaign.
Shorty Chumbris, at the top of
the batting order, banged out the
horSehide at a $40 average, while
Waverley Wheeler slugged the ball
at a 1857 clip. Knepley, after a
slow start, went on a hitting spree
in the late stages Of the 81 season
to round out 1903 average. Sur
gent hit for a fancy 800.
Figuring Lefty Chumbris' 1862
Mark, Maryland has a team bat
ting average Of nearly .357, which
even a guy with pepper in his
nose cannot sneeze at.

NEW KNOWLEDGE IS HARD TO
 RETAIN

Daily the question comes up as to what makes the teeth of certain persons SO soft and so susceptible to decay. If the victims of this con- dition have any idea at all about it they generally mention that a dentist has expressed the opinion that it is because there is something lacking in their food. Formerly the prevailing notion was that they hadn't taken good care of their teeth.
 Now all that is based wholly on conjecture and hearsay, and in no degree on any scientific experiment investigation or any large scale observation or study of controlled human experience. But it has been repeated so often that, for many, it has come to seem the truth.
 On the other hand, we have enough scientific experimental evil dence and enough clinical or actual study of experience of various tribes or people living under req Iscnably controlled conditions, to convince an unbiased or open mind of the fact that carries or decay or cavity formation in the teeth and gingivitis or pyorrhea or chronic inflammation and shrinking or re- cedence of the gums are due mainly to deficiencies of the diet, particu- larly insufficient assimilation and utilization of calcium Qime) and phosphorus and insufficient intake of vitamins, particularly vitamins D, c and, at least according to Eng fish authorities, vitamin A.
 There is still room for argument regarding the importance of an adequate daily intake of vitamin o to prevent dental carries and gingi- wits (gum infiammation) but there can be no argument against the general advisability of getting a fair amount of vitamin c every day, for growing children and young adults as well as for infants It is now the universal custom tc 1 feed infants little orange juice ol tomato juice daily to provide vita min c to prevent scurvy. Where oi when fresh fruit juice may not be available, factory canned tomato juice serves the purposes, as it is an excellent source of vitamin c Home canned tomato or tomato juice is not, because more or less oxidation occurs during the canning process and oxidation destroys vitamin c. The vacuum process em- ployed in commercial canning oi course excludes oxygen and so pre- serves a considerable part of tht vitamin c of the fresh fruit ol vegetable.
 The amount of orange juice lemon juice, grapefruit juice or thu fresh fruit necessary in the daily ration is probably not less than two ounces or one-fourth of an ordinar! glassful. The same amount of fresl or factory canned tomato juice O tomato containing that much juic' is advisable. Four or five times a. much would be the optimal or mos favorable amount, for maintaining health.

STYLE CHATS

Paris (UP)-What Partisan hat de- signers think of their own hats was demonstrated at the fashionable Auteuil race course on the outskirts of Paris, when the big names of fashion and society assembled to show off their spring clothes and look at the horses.
 Mme Suzy wore a little black pillbox with small raised crown, just high enough to take a band of white pique ribbon around it. A wide-meshed white veil fell from the top of the brim to the chin, com- pletely covering the face.
 No one could have made a mis- take about where Mime. Jacques Helm had had her outfit made Over her short-skirted black dress she wore yellow jacket, hip-length, wire revers, edges outlined in black nipped in at the waist and fast ened by four buttons, set close to- gether. Her hat was a large black sombrero, with the crown creased in front to make two peaks.
 Mime. Gabrielle Beauchet wore little black derby, with two white doves, heads together ano wings outspread on both sides forming a huge petal-like design ir front. Beauchet also shows thi derby with cluster of large rec peoples in place of the doves.
 Mime. Saby wore black clocht tl~lt accented the forward-slansine line of this season by cone-likt twist that started fvom the peal of the hat, looking something likt miniature megaphone. The ha was trimmed with ribbon in con

NEA OGEVACC 0S0h Beautiful feet usually are com- fortable feet. And the woman who wants to look and feel her best this summer will begin right now to eliminate corns, callouses and other defects. She'll have to give herself weekly pedicure. And she'll make sure that her summer shoes are wide enough, long enough and de- signed for comfort as well as chic.
 Nothing will put lines across your forehead more quickly than shoes which are not one hundred percent comfortable. It's smart to find a shoe salesman who can and will take the trouble to advise you about the type of last you ought to have and the kind of heels likely to be most comfortable, as well as proper sizes and so on.
 Incidentally, if you just aren't comfortable and happy in high heels, get rid of the notion that all shoes with medium-low heels make your feet look large and unattractive. If you are deter mined enough, you certainly can find summer shoes that are both smart and comfortable.
 Stockings, too, ought to be ex- actly the right size neither too long nor too sort. Put on clean pair every day, of course. Ii your feet tend to perspire, get an antiseptic foot powder and use it before you put on stockings. And if the skin between your toes looks bleached and slightly moist, by all means dry these spots especially carefully after each bath, then sprinkle with powder.
 Pedicures All-Important
 Pedicures come under the heading of beauty, but they are important from a standpoint of foot health. also. Carefully manicured toenails just do not become ingrown at the corners. The foot that is massaged regularly with cream never will feel dry and feverish. Corn and call louses, properly treated, do disap- pear. And getting back to the beau- ty angle in its simplest form, nicely pedicured feet are lot more at tractive on the beach than those tht appear slightly discolored, slight ly rough and show obvious signs of neglect.
 Always cut toenails straight across, then smooth rough edges and round the corners bit with the coarse side of an emery board. If VOL soak your feet in lukeWarm wa ter for a few minutes the cutting and filing steps will be simpler.
 Next, apply cuticle remover and push cuticle back with an orange stick which has been wrapped in cotton When you have worked over each nail until it and the cu- ticle around it are quite smooth, rinse again, dry carefully and ap- ply bright nail polish, covering the entire surface of the nail.
 NEXT: Perfect grooming.

RENEWING FLOOR WAX

To keep your woXed floors their original tone and always clean and shining, before renewing the wax finish remove the old wax coating with a clean cloth moistened with turpentine. Allow floor to dry thor oughly. then apply thin coating of wax and polish vigorously. Sev- eral thin coatings of wax added se- parately and each polished will us- ually wear better and have higher gloss than one thick coat. An elec- tric polisher does the job quickly and easily. WaXed floors should be dusted with a dry mop or soft cloth and rubbed occasionally with wax poliSher.

Over-cooking hardens and toughens it. As a postscript, he reminds us that liver is one meat that cannot be kept for late comers,1t must be served immediately after it is re- moved from the fire.
 Saute or BrGil
 A few more notes on this all inn portant question. If you prefer liver without the covering of flour, go ahead and prefer it. Simply sauJe the slices of liver with butter. You may also broil the liver in a moder- ate oven. This requires, as rule 2 or minutes more than Sauteing.
 It is better to use butter than bacon fat for sauting. The flavor of bacon may destroy the delicate flavor of the liver. However, crisp bacon does make an excellent ac- compartment for the liver. Sauteec onions go well with liver.
 Calf's liver with bacon and lyon- naise potatoes (which are cooked with a little onion) will give a slight onion flavor for those who like theil onions mild.
 Stewed tomatoes are natural with liver especially when a tea spoon or two of chives or onion! are chopped in with the tomatoes.

 And later when we dared to pro- fane that sacred silence, the musi- clan explained that the Chinese scale contained twice as many notes as our own. It contains the half tones that we have sighted.
 My memory of this lovely inter- Jude suggested that the natures of cur children, sweet as music though they be, have ''half-notes," too.
 We have many youngsters who will conform precisely to our scale They copy our dictation without va riance, do exactly as they are told and walk carefully on our chalk lines. We call them good because they are cartoons of our writing, in- taglios of our seals. Correct, pre- else, routine children.
 Write Own Arrangements" of Con- ventiOnal Notes
 But there are those others who cannot ever quite follow the precise outline. They keep to the law as closely as their natures will permit but deep in their makeup are the in-between notes. They are free spirits who would fret under frustra- tion if we insisted too rigidly each day and hour upon the absolute let ter of prescribed conduct.
 Mothers often worry because one of the children in the family can- not seem to conform to exact rule Often such a child, these parents may add apologetically is a dreamer CT artistic or overly sensitive--not realizing that they have answered their own question.

Modern Menus :
By Mrs. Gaynor Maddox NEA Service Staff Writer

Liver is like the little girl in the nursery rhyme. When it is good, it is very good, but when it is bad, it is horrid.
 But it need never be horrid, be- cause it is very easy meat to pre- pare. When it is horrid, the simple elementary rules of cooking have not been observed.
 A noted restaurateur in New York, famed for many years for his tender and fine favored meats and sea foods, gives few practical suggestions about liver.
 First of all," he says, "it is wiser to use calf's liver rather than beef liver because calf's liver is SUD- erior in tenderness, delicacy and flavor.
 Furthermore. beef liver is more difficult to prepare successfully. Calf's liver is light brownish red in color, wheras beef liver is a dark and purplish red. In calf's liver there are naturally fewer and small CT veins because it comes from d young animal.
 whereas some meats are better for hanging, liver should be absol- utely fresh.
 Season After Cooking
 ITO prepare liver, remove the skin from around the edges of the slices. By all means, do not wash the liver. Washing it will take away valuable and favorable juices.
 Now for the cooking. Cover the slices of liver lightly with flour. Melt a little butter in a frying pan. Get it very hot but not brown before putting in the liver. Saute quickly over hot flame, about minutes to each side. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately while piping hot"
 Our food friend advises us on two points further. First, the salt and pepper must not be added until after the liver is done. If the seasonings are added before cooking. they have constructing effect on the flesh so that it willnot be so tender.
 Second, special care must be taken so that the liver is not overdone.
