The matter of the third term for
President Roosevelt is attracting
much attention. Some who are
Roosevelt followers oppose third
term because 1t Is violation of
precedent. OF course all those OPP
posed to Roosevelt object to his hav-
ing third term. They are, on the
other hand, a considerable number
who do not feel that the question OF
third term is nearly so important
as the man who may fill the office.
The question who would give better
managed administration is more i'm
portant to many than the question
of the third or even the fourth term
None of us like to hear a man brae

AS you read the goings in your
Courier-Reporter you have noticed
that young people here, as through
out the land, are taking advantage
of the annual camps conducted by
the All clubs. These camps or
canvas cities" give the youth ad-
vantages of any regulated sum-
mer resort, but are conducted along
lines of city government with a
mayor and officials to run it. The
"citizens" receive awards for merit
and there are educational meetings
besides the enjoyment of the out
door life. It is satisfying to all par
ents who have children in All Clubs
and it is with renewed vigor and
added vision that these young peo-
pie return to farms and communi-
ties better for the association and
knowledge gained on this vacation
The secret of community progress
is found in two things: First, a def
mite plan or program, and second
the cooperation of the resources and
leadership of the community behind
the program. With such a plan be-
fore it any community can make
progress and come to the end of the
year with program of accomplish
ment that it can look back upon
and experience the thrill that comes
from definite accomplishment. The
formula is simple but it is remark
able how many communities with a
desire to get things done fail te
adopt it. They talk about q lot Oh
things but never center upon any
one thing. They dissipate thei,
energy and resource by applying
them to several projects. The result
is nothing gets finished and there Is
no satisfaction or record of accomp-
lishment to be found at the end Of
the year. Every community that has
done things for itself has followed
this simple formula. They could moi
have succeeded or have accomplish.

plan. They have selected definite
project and then concentrated all d
their efforts and resources upon il

from the usual Hollywood type.
The estimates one hears Of her are
splendidly antithetical, whereas
those of the average performer are
stereotyped to the point of bore
dom. Miss Hopkins is cold and
aloof, one informant says. She is
friendly and talkative, says an
other. A third says she is versatile,
a fourth that she is one-part
player.
A Gallup poll conductor probably
would be driven mad trying to find
specific reaction to Miss Hopkins
unless, of course. he limited his in
quiries to some one really acquaint-
ed with the actress, who in private
life is Mrs. Anton Litvak. That
kind of informant would be able to
point out that Miss Hopkins is very
objective, extraordinarily curious
about what is going on in the world
around her. She has a keen mind,
one that works constantly on such
riddles as international political
movements, domestic social prob
lens, etc.
Such interests identify her with
persons who do not comprise the
ordinary cinema set. Consequently
her non-professional life is lived
somewhat off the beaten track, the
haunts of philosophers, writer's, DO
litical leaders, and not those of the
Trocadero habitues.
That probably explains why she
is an enigma to her neighbors in
Hollywood.

terton and Barry Thompson and
three rather clever children do an
artful job of bringing the fantastic
Flacks to life. That is quite a
struggle, too, what with the ex-
tremes to which Playwrights Mar
celia Burke and Gladys Unger 60 to
emphasize how lovably clever that
family is despite its wanton imprac-
ticality.
You Can't Eat the Goldfish" re-
ported bound for Broadway, will
have to shed a few conspicuous
faults. One of them is a first act
that lumbers all over the place, a
flaw for which the cast can thank
the playwrights and vice versa, with
both being right. Between the
sparkling bits of this area of the
play last night, there was evidence
that Miss Chatterton and four
others who have played the drama
elsewhere could have whipped it
along more rapidly had the other
performers been equally familiar
with it. Once the expository pas
sages were settled, a bit too much
to the satisfaction of every one,
things went more smoothly.
The idea of You Can't Eat the
Goldfish" is that bunch of crazily
charming people can stand just so
much of one another's crazy charm,
that they need a rest after that,
and that eventually they will have
to get together again because that's
all they are fit for. 1t is not pre-
cisely the freshest notion any one
ever had for a play, but there is
something invariably captivating
about it.
In this case it is the playing of
Miss Chatterton as the mother,
Mr.. Thompson as the father and
pudgy lad named Tommy Lewis,
chip off the old block if ever
there was one. frightened up, a
phrase that is bound to creep into
any review of a new play, You
Can't Eat the Goldfish" might be
fine hot weather diversion. Broad

Even though it does not sound
like the right way to say it, the
subject of THE Old Maid" makes
one think of Miriam Hopkins. The
particular thought that the film in
duces is that in spite of her high
rating among cinema actresses,
Miss Hopkins has a comparatively
small amount of publicity. 1t in
dicates that she either is to be
taken for granted or that pub
licity departments lack the spe-
cial qualifications for writing about
the Hopkins type.
Any one SO disposed could make
a pretty good case around the latter
assumption-that Miss Hopkins is
something special.
At any rate, she is far removed

Over 1900 other Ameri- can communities will conduct Am ericanism Week programs simul- taneously, MT. Stewart pointed out
 Some half million Elks and their families and friends are at work today planning this huge nation wide demonstration of American ism" MT Stewart said "Elks lodges from coast to coast are seeking to unite school, church, professional and business groups in this work that we Americans may in this man. her have called to our attention the multiple advantages of life in this country under democracy.
 "Dr E. J. Mccormick, of Toledo, our Grand Exalted Ruler, has urged every Elks lodge to set aside this one week in which every Elk in the country will re-consecrate himself to service in the practice of charity, justice, brotherly love, fidelity and patriotism At the same time, Elks in all parts of the country are vig- orously practicing Americanism by backing needed civic projects and by carrying on local programs de- signed to aid their fellowmen.

The center, instead of swapping the bah
back, had tucked it in the crotch behind his
knee and calmly waited while the battle
surged around him. Somewhat casually few
seconds later, one of the ends sauntered
around behind the center, took the ball from
its strange but legal resting place and carried
it across the goal line unnoticed.
Alexander (The Great Wojciechowicz,
Fordham star of few years back who is now
wrecking professional lines for the Detroit
Lions, made speciality of Stealing the
ball. Backing up the line, he would tackle the
ball instead of the ball carrier and often, in
the ensuing scuffle. Alex would come up with
the pigskin. At a crucial moment in the 1897
Fordham- North Carolina game, Alex stole
the ball from Carolina back to end threat
ening march toward the Ram goal.

may be tricky and your defense may be
smartly planned, but if you don't have the
right man in the pivot position you can't win.
For the center is the hub of both the
offense and the defense. On defense, he is
footballs one-man riot squad, rowing up and
down behind the line of scrimmage. rushing
at split-second's warning to wherever uou-
bic breaks out. He is your first line of defense
against air raids, assigned to watch for those
dangerous over -theline bullet passes He must
be a keen analyzer of the enemy attack, ready
to fling his body into a gap left by fellow
PLAYER who has been feinted out of position
w THE offense the entire case is in his
hands. He can ruin any given play with
twist of his finger before it has chance to get
under way. I've never yet heard anybody ex-
claim. Gee, wasn't that beautiful pass from
center" But time and again the center is
blamed for bad pass when the fault lies In
the backfield where some headlined hero has
missed his signal and the pigskin. A few years
ago for instance, when Tuffy Leemans, now
star halfback of the professional New York
Giants, was playing with George Washington
University, he called up newspaper late one
night to get the football writer to change his
story of the days game.

Once upon time the center merely had to
be a numbering fellow with oaklike legs and
a strong back, whose only task was to hold
his ground after swapping the ball back But
today his job isn't over when he gets rid OF the
ball. He must lunge through the opposing
line and into the backfeld, to help with down.

breaks free x or, if it's a punt, he will go
down to help smear the receiver.
Notre Danes center had still another job
last year. When the opposing team was IN

all fours, and as the ball was snapped one
