Twas This Way

By LYLE SPENCER
Q Western Newspaper Union.

MEN are supposed to know more
AsA about designing clothes than
women. The great modistes of Par
is, New York and Hollywood, who
dictate the tilt of milady's hat and
the length of her dress, are mostly
males.
Yet one of the most important ar
ticles of male haberdasnery, the de-
tachable collar, was invented by
woman, Mrs. Hannah Montague, of
Troy, N. Y. Like thousands of other
housewives, she noticed every wash
day that her husbands shirts were
dirty only around the collar. They
took longer to scrub and iron than
any other part of the family wash.
Mrs. Montague was a resourceful
woman. One Monday morning in
1925 she decided to do something
about the collar problem. She took
a pair of scissors and with a couple
of snips performed the necessary
amputation. Thereafter, Mr.. Mon
tague tied his collar around his neck
the best way he could, but his wife
had no more trouble with the wash
ing.
This new device appealed to so
many housewives that by 1929 Ebe-
nezer Brown was able to set up a
collar factory. He manufactured
what was known as the "string col
lar" because it tied around the
neck with string. Much to the de-
light of laundrymen, Ebenezer soon
introduced the hard-starched collar,
and little later that male abomina-
ton, the collar button. It has taken
men almost century to rid them
selves of these inconvenience. But
history runs in cycles, and before
long another time-saving wife Is
likely to get out her shears again.

THROUGH TlB1S POLITICAL
 PERISG0IPE

If ever a group of American eiu- zens had a bad break it Is the Re publieans Of the nation who are meeting in convention on June 24 in Philadelphia to name themselves a presidential nominee. Under or dinary circumstances. the eyes of the nation and much Of the world would he focused on them. But cir eumstanees are no longer ordinary. Today the cold type of newspapers and the blare Of countless loud speakers are carrying messages which are of much greater vital concern 10 the hundred and thirty million persons who make up Amer lea. Again the world is in chaos and this nation like many others teeters on the brink of war
 4 big portion of those hundred thirty million Americans were tuned in the fore part Of the week when President Roosevelt told the grad uates or the University Of Virginia in an address that was broadcast throughout he world. that every re- source of this country would be put at the service of the Allies without ieopardizing our own defenses. They heard the Chief Executive declare the hopes and prayers of this nation went out to those who were fight ing across the seas for the demo- cratic form of living. meaning Eng land and France They heard him label the Italian dictator Mussolini. who had just declared war on the Allies. as one who had showed a knife in the back of his neighbor

Sunnyside fumbled Pasco's way to
victory in the game played at Sun
nyside Friday. Taking the ball with
mighty offense in the opening
minutes of the game the Grizzlies
rolled to the Pasco 20 where a
| tumble formed cloud over Sun
| nyside. With both teams showing
very little in the way of defense, the
game was a thriller to watch. Pasco
turned on a passing attack that is
going to have to be watched even
by Gle Elum. When Pasco meets
the Ellensburg squad this Friday
1t will be Bulldog against Bulldog,
sort of snarl fest that will see a
lot OF scoring and the final outcome
should look like what happens to a
scorekeeper with the D rs. Here is
a prediction, if Pasco works that
passing attack as they did against
Sunnyside they are liable to upset
the dope.
Sunnyside meets Toppenish this
week and the favorite is Top-Hi for
the one reason that they seem to
have a defense that the Grizzlies
will find tough to crack. It should
not be overlooked that the Sunny
side high outfit has what might be-
come fatal air attack. If anything
Is to be fatal to the Cats Friday it
will be a lot of passes clicking.
Toppenish started the season with
lot of rumors circulating about
the conference which caused the
belief that the Toppenish squad
would turn out the most effective
aerial blitzkreig in the valley this
season. Although the Cats had a
slick ball to deal with at Kennewick
Friday night, the outlook of the air
force of Top-H looked as though
it would do nothing more this sea-
son than serve to mix up the Cats
plays and keep the defense on it's
toes. Perrault has been hitting the
receivers on the nose in both games
played so far and that as the result
of this dead eye tossing the re-
ceivers drop the ball. That state
ment that Toppenish if they come,
will come on the ground has held
water so far.
Although the Ellensburg's 80 did
! not make the Wapato IA look too
good the facts show that Wapato
made a much better showing.
Admitting that it isn't the team
which gains the most ground or
gets the longest runs that wins the
game always. Look out for Wapato,
Ellensburg is not too puffed up over
! the fact that the Wolves had few
bad moments in the wrong places.
Wapato really has what looks
like the surprise start of the year,
after you hear about him though
the only thing that will surprise you
| is that he has not been seen in &C
ton before this. Don Patterson,
a reserve full-back, who is scheduled
to step out of the reserve ranks in
