Don't Neglect Spares
BY ANDY VARIPAPA
Famous Bowling Authority

written for Alp Feature Service)
Every ball can't be a strike in
bowling so it is advisable to dis
cuss spares. If you have difficult
ty with some spares, the best adj
vice I can give is that you 60 to
an alley and bowl that particular
spare until you have gained con-
fidence and can make it consist
emily.
How do you make spares? Well,
if it's the No. 10 pin or any pins
on the right side Of the alley,
stand on the left side and roll to-
ward the right. In other words,
always roll from the opposite side
from where the pins are still
standing after you have delivered
your first ball.
IChlIIS OA1 tic nv PM ok1oAO
is not as difficult as bagging the
No. 10 because the delivery is
more natural. The best way to
roll for the No. Z pin is to deliver
the ball from the right side Of the
alley diagonally from right to
left. This is an easy spare for
the average bowler.
The most successful way to get
the No. 10 pin is to roll from the
left side.
The delivery is practically the
same as bowling for any spare
except that you don't follow
through quite as much as when
you roll for spares on the left
side of the alley.
The No. 10 pin causes many
bowlers to talk to themselves be-
cause it remains upright on ap-
parently perfect hits and is the
most difficult single pin spare in
bowling.

Floyd Rowe, chairman of t
says that lin my own mind I'm
bOdy"-but that the matter viii
get a full hearing.
"A few years ago attendance
was dropping off and spectator
interest was down." declares
Rowe. 1T was obvious something
had to be done.
The committee adopted the
rule that no team could hold the
ball in its back court more than
ten seconds, eliminating stalling
as in the classic of all time, a :
to 2 score between two Ohio
nigh school teams with one play
er actually sitting down on the
ball The center jump also was
eliminated because of its in
equality.
With all the time outs and in
teImissions, a high school game,
for instance, actually takes up
about 90 minutes, in which a
player is required to travel
something less than four miles.
Pm past so, but I'll guarantee to
travel four miles IN IS minutes
any time you want me to do it
in decent weather, and it won't
harm me one Bit.

DR.. Charles H. Keene, University

ers''.
He says that basketball as now
played results in chronic in
creased blood preSSureS'.
At least two committee men,
berS, however, think no changes
should be made in the two dis
puted rules at the spring meet
ing, where Rowe said the re-
search committee will report on
the problem.
c. S. Edmundson. basketball
and track coach at the University
of Washington in Seattle, de
clares, My personal feeling is
that the game of basketball is a
good one as it is, and requires no
more stamina than it did in the
first game we ever played.
In the opinion of J. w. St. Clair,
Southern Methodist University
athletic director at Dallas, Tex,
basketball should still be a game
for people who are in good physi-
cal condition, and l think should
be kept where it will continue to
place a premium on good physi-
cal condition, regardless of age.
Much Ado About?
People, Rowe contends, ARE
getting excited about something
when in my honest judgment
they haven't anything to get eX-
cited about
"On the 18-man committee, we
have two medical doctors and
one oSteopathic physician. There
isn't one man on the committee
who would approve passage of a
rule if he had any idea it would
mitigate against the health of any
player-and yet together they
have had $50 years of experience
in basketball and athletics gen.
orally.
The games all right. It's bet
ter than two, five or ten years
ago. It's being played better and
coached much more intelhgently
and has become more of a game
of skill.

Governor Hoey's "Hull
for President" Statement
Causes Much Speculation
(Continuer From Page One)


tionaI' limbs such as broke off Sc
,bruptly beneath Bob Reynolds
there'll be no war, and "Scandi-
navia will stay neutraI' predictions.
Those who hold this idea think
hat Franklin d. told Max something
and Max in turn passed it along to
)rother-in-laW Clyde, with the result
hat the Governor came out for Cor
lell Hull.
Still another point of view is held
~ some who think the Hoey state
ment was prompted by purely per-
.onal pique at his having been more
OF less ignored in formation of the
North Carolina for Roosevelt move
ment This, to your reporter at least,
sounds extremely far-fetched as the
Hoey actions are usually far too well
considered for any such theory to
hold water. And besides that, the
Governor is usually about the last
person in the world to move from
any such Spiteful and unworthy mo-
tive. If anything gets under his skin
he is ordinarily the last in the world
TO show.
There is much speculation, too,
over the question of why the Cover
nor should have put himself in the
position of arraying against him the
packers of all the other Democratic
presidential asprants.
Why, it is asked, should Gov
ernor Hoey take 4 stand which will
put Senator Joe Blythe of Charlotte
against him." blythe is state
manager for Paul V. McNutD. And
why should he ruffle the feelings OF
Judge Walter Siler?" (Siler is the I'M
official, but recognized head of the

Garner boosters in North Carolina).
And why should he make Lindsay
Warren angry" (Warren is looked
on as 4 Garner crony).
AS a matter of fact there is no rea-
son to think that any Of these nam
ed persons are going TO paw up the
earth in savage wrath at the HOcy
presumption in opposing their favor
ties: and the reason for this IS quite
simple.
It is obvious that there isn't any
appreciable sentiment in North Car
DINA for either McNutt or Garner
There seems to be no getting around
the general impression that Presl-
dent Roosevelt has by far the major
ity Of the rank and file behind him
and the further fact that outside the
President, Cordell Hull is the only
candidate who has any strength ut
all in his own right.
1t is wildly recalled that in 1923
the Simmons forces marShalled them
selves behind Hull in an effort TO
stop AL Smiths steam roller-and it
was stopped in North Carolina,
though not in the nation.
There exists the possibility that
the Anti-Third Termers, among
whom the Governor is known to be
numbered, are cndeavoring to &c
peat that bit of Tar Heel strategy.
AT all events, there seems TO have
been precipitated as pretty pros
pectivc battle as the State has en-
loved in d long time. AS governor,
CLYDE Hoey has studiously kept out
of controversy. His regime to date
has been singularly free from bick-
ering and braWling; but there are
now indications that the era of gooG
feeling is over. He has committed
himself on matter Of intensely bit
ter controversy and something ol Il
scrap can be looked for.

Arlington Navy Building
Move Hit by P|anner

The new general purpose Office
building which the Government Is
soon to build at Arlington Ridge
road and Columbia pike in Arlington
County was severely criticized last
night by Gordon Whitnall. city
planning expert. who spoke before
mass meeting on parking and
transportation problems at the
United States Chamber of Com
merce.
The building will house 5000 en-
ployes and will be used for the
present by the Navy.
This will mean that that portion
of the population which will work
in the building will tend to move
to Arlington County to be near their
place of employment. Mr.. Whitnall
said. Some 10000 persons may be
expected to shift across the Potomac
River as result.
Then, he said, when the present
emergency is over the building will
be used for document warehouse
and will employ only few watch
men.
The Government is rushing head
long into placing the building there,
without thought to the future effect
it will have, he said.
