OFFERS SUB-CAPITAL

Carl Brown, editor of The Atchi-
son Globe, must be first with the
news out Atchison way because he
was first to offer his city as a
rabbit hole for the national CAPT.
tol
Observing that dispatches indi-
cate Washington is pretty jittery,
Mr.. Brown wrote Congressman w.
P. LambertSon:
MY only conclusion is that
Washington people see visions of
invasion.
The good old town of Atchi-
son, Kans., wishing to alleviate
the sufferings of Washington peo-
pie, invites and urges that sub
sidiary nation capitol be Gre
ated in Atchison, which is in the
heart of america.
.Atchison has four railroads,
is on the Missouri River, which
now is ready for steamboat and
barge traffic, and has beautiful
sites for government buildings.
"Atchison submits this invita-
ton and urges it in all serious
ness. Even when the world is at
peace, there should be sub
sidiary national capital in the
heart of America"
If the applause that swept the
house when Mr.. Browns letter
was read is a criterion, the Rep
resentatives think that's a swell
idea. Who's next?

WILL EXPLORE
FAIRWEATHER
OUT OF HERE
Washburn and arty 10
Climb Brady Glacier
Into Vast Range

Planning to explore and map the
Fairweather Range, northwest of
Juneau, from a side believed un-
explored H. Bradford Washburn
Jr., Director of the New England
Museum of Natural History at Bos
ton, is due in Juneau tonight on the
Prince George.
With Washburn are Lowell Thorn
as, Jr., of New York, son of the
famous commentator, two Harvard
students, Thomas Winship, of Sud-
bury Massachusetts,, and Grafton
Wilson, of BROOKLYN, Massachusetts.
Mrs. Washburn, accompanying her
husband is slim little woman I'M
worried over crossing the rugged
expanse of ice and snow which bur-
les the range to be traversed.
The expedition will start in Glac-
Ter Bay and climb the range over
Brady Glacier.
Two sled dogs have been brought
along and skiing equipment.
This is Washburn's ninth mapping
and exploration expedition trip to
Alaska, and as on recent trips, he
will do considerable aerial mapping,
flying with Pilot Alex Holden of
Juneau
Three other youths in the party
are already in Juneau They are
two Harvard boys, Maynard Miller
of Tacoma, and Alva Morrison CT
ambridge, Massachusetts,, and
Michel Feuersinger, Austrian ski in
structor in Walt Disney's Sugar
Bowl.

will have to be kept unGer arms.
IS; Venth, warfare by sea and
land will only be possible when
nation has command of the
air"
If that's not hitting the fusel-
age on the nose, 1 never heard of
it. Like Mr.. Hinshaw it's hard to
keep from wondering - if that
sort OF conviction has been float
inc around in military circles for
AZ years-Where the army strate-
gists of our and other nations
ave been. And how come it was
eft to A. Hitler, Goering & Co. to
prove the British majors points?

TREE GROWS AROUND
MOUNTAIN SLEEPS Skull

JACKSON, Wyo., June 27.-About
ECO years ago-as Keith Stilson, a
jackson Hole guide, figures it
an Indian was lucky enough to
bring home some mountain sheep
steak for dinner.
After dressing the carcass the
Indian hung the skull on a small
tree and forgot about it.
Recently, Stilson saw a peculiar
growth on a big pine tree and ex-
amined it. Completely embedded
in the trunk about five feet above
ground, was the Sleeps skull.

By the Associated Press.


OAKLAND, Calf, Jan. 1.-Two
players who would be described in
horse-racing circles as superior
mudders" set the pace today as q
reduced field of 1913 teed of in the
second round of the 5000 72-hole
Oakland golf tournament.
Fancy Cts, three under par, ex.
ecuted under such trying circum.
stances as rain, some wind and
plenty Of standing water, put Craig
Wood, blond professional from
Mamaroneck, N. Y, and Wilford
Wehrle, amateur from Racine, Wis,
in the forefront.
Wood had a 1892, Wehrle 32-35.
The Sequoyah course par is 10
and 19 Of the PA starters equaled or
bettered that figure.
Trailing the leaders by a stroke
were Clayton Heafner, Linville, N.

crack shot from Houston, Tex.
Outstanding among those who
banged out subpar golf in the open.

nell, N. Y. After a shaky 80 on the
first nine. he breezed home with

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The case
of the broken nose is big-time bas-
ket balls most intriguing mystery.
The broken nose belongs to Capt.
Ossie Shechtman, playmaker of the
Long Island University's Black
birds, one of the cagiest cage crews
extant. Shechtman brings his bro
ken nose-and his Blackbirds-into
Madison Square Garden tonight to
meet the super speedsters of the
Border Conference, the New Mexico
Aggies. in half of a collegiate dou-
BILE bill.
Whether Ossie can play - and
spark the birds to their accustomt d
heights-is the mystery.
In the other game a young but
promising Temple quintet. slowly
coming to be regarded as one OF
the East's finest teams, plays St.
Johns, victor IN Its last Garden
appearance over City College of
New York by 1926.
The New Mexicans, 10 gallon

Man Of the Decade

Clark undoubtedly was a better
all-around player, but he didn't have
the color possessed by Harold tRed)
Grange, Mr.. Football of the 20s.
No other college star even en-
joyed the fame that was Oranges
at Illinois. Known as the "Gallop-
ing Ghost" because Of his phantom
like elusiveness, Oranges jersey No.
II was familiar to every schoolboy.
His 1924 field day against Michigan
made him a national hero. Grange
ran the kickon back 80 yards for q
touchdown, and before the Wolver-
ines could recover he made three
more on runs of As, SIS and IS yards.
He was the country's No. back
as a senior and soon after his last
college game he joined the profess
sional Chicago Bears. Red was just
the stimulus the young pro game
needed. When Grange and the
Bears played the Giants in New
