! to make their visit pleasurable
and inviting us to visit them il
we ever ride their way. These
people know how to make
friends, enthusiastically. We are
enthusiastic about them, too.
One night as we passed by
some open windows, well light
ed, with no blinds drawn, we saw
one man in the company of eigh-
teen women. We looked at the
women carefully, and decided
that not more than two were
spinsters, and so we wondered
where the spouses of the remain
ing sixteen were. They should
have been there, too, because the
place we were looking into was
church and the solitary man
present was the pastor. Are only
women enthusiastic about their
religious services, and if so, why?
MALE ENTHUSIASM
You have bright eyes,
And a fine, CHEEKY smile;
You tell me no lies,
Nor ply me with guile;
That's why
I'm enthusiastic over you.
You read good books,
And you like funny puns;
You beat all the cooks,
When you bake honey buns;
That's why
I'm enthusiastic over you.
T Your soft hands caress
/ My head when / am down;
To you / must confess,
You're the best gal in town;
T That's why
I'm enthusiastic over you.
Adios,
PENETRATOR.

Dumb Dan Morgan Explains How Pat. Comiskey Can Win
fspecial to fhe DelnoeEall

New York, sept. 17.-The newest member to climb aboard the Patrick Edward Comisi1ey Special, heading into Max Baer in Jersey City8 Roosevelt Stadium on Thursday, September 26, is Dan Morgan. But the man of a few million wOrda completely disagrees with the req soning of the rest of. the group by not even considering the Irish Idols devastating right-hander as an instrument necessary to his suc- cess.
 According to Morgan, If Pat walks in blindly and starts tllrow- ing that right-hander he doesn't have chance. The only way for him to win is with his left. And" Dan continued, q mean Jolting, straight one. If Pat attempts to hit Baer with hooks or right crosses early we'll all find ourselves attend ing an Irish wake.
 "Comiskey will have to keep his distance in those early rounds and he can only do this by jabbing hard and moving. By doing this he'll keep the Big Baer at arms length and himself out of danger. If he moves in to hook he'll bring him. self within range of Baer's bombing blows to the body and that won't do him a bit of good" Morgan ex-- plained.
 Late KayO
 "3ut how" Dan was asked, "can Patrick ever hope to win by a knockout fighting that way7 He can't be expected to topple over the burly Baer with jabs."
 "The knockout with come late" Morgan predicted. Don't forget Pat has youth on his side. And that's what will win for him. Baer will have to do the chasing if Com iskey just jabs and moves for q few rounds. And the old boys legs won't stand the strain. Then, when Max gets afflicted with the hat feet Pat will have an imlnovable target at which to aim the heavy stuff"
 There is no denying Morgans re- cent successes as an expert. He was the first, and one of the very few, tot pick Ken Overlin to dethrone Ceferino Garcia as middleweight champion, and then he made the amazing prediction that Billy Conn could leave his famed left-jab in Pittsburg for all the good it would do him against Bob Pastor. The fight proved him absolutely correct. Billy couldn't touch Bob with 8 straight left, having to depend solely on hooks.
 Are you listening, Patrick?

Kicking Game As Good As In Haughton's Day-PheIar
WelI-PIaced Punt Called Best Gainer
Second of five illustrated stories by the games greatest coaches.
By JIMMY PHELAN

WashingtOn's Head Football Coach
 Seattle, Sept. - Punting in foot ball is as important as pitching in baseball The punt is the real long gainer of football.
 No other play is as productive. A weli-placed kick in the coffin corner can turn most games in favor of the kicking side.
 Protection, speed, placing, and covering kicks produce results. A 60-yard kick which is returned 30 makes poor average. A 70-yard kick for a touchback is not as eff fective as a 40-yarder out of bounds on the 10-yard line.
 The old saying, ''When in doubt, punt" still stands, and the old theory of kicking and waiting for break, developed so effectively by Percy Haughton of Harvard and Andy Smith of California, is still a safe and sane way of starting a game.
 Success in kicking depends on good average from the line of scrimmage with short returns. If the kick is not placed out of bounds, it must be high and hard to handle. The receiver must be nailed on the spot of the catch.
 The quick-kick and the punt for- nation kick are equally important. One school of thought is 'Let them kick. We want the ball" but having the ball inside your own 20-yard line is not much of a break. A tumble in this spot might lose the game.
 COACH OF PUNTER USES
 METHODS OF GOLF PRO
 Punting form is analogous to golfing form, except that the punter has only one club, which is the foot and leg. But this has an adjustable face and shaft. The similarity is in stance, keeping the eye on the ball, follow through meeting the ball at the proper spot, relaxation, speed, timing and control.
 The golfer never hits his long est ball on the first swing. He warns up slowly, gets his timing, swing and feel before he cuts loose. Most punters want to hit the first one mile. Pitchers warm up slowly and punters should follow the ex- ample.
 The better kickers make their start on sandlots of grade schools and the turf of high schools. Constant practice and study of \ form is paramount. Coaching follows the same line as the golf profes- sionals teaching small changes and one at a time. When top form is reached, the tapering-of process stores up the snap and sock in the leg for Saturdays game.
 PUT PRESSURE ON KICKER
 IN PRACTICE SESSIONS II The young punter must be given lplenty of kicking scrimmage. Put the pressure on him on the prac- tice field and not, on his first time out for Saturdays game. Let him feel the experience of kicking out from behind his own goal line under pressure.
 Put the stopwatch on the kicker to test his speed and work with him until he knows what caused every bad kick and the slight remedy to adjust the fault.
 On windy days I insist on my kickers working against the wind because when they can control. the ball into the wind the downwind job is easy.
 I I have never developed a punter in college who did not have natural leg drive and some semblance of form drive and some semblance of form before he came to me. I take each one individually and try to

many varieties. So expensive are
some of them that the most PAM
pered lady would be impressed; so
modest are others that you can af-
ford them for the, Christmas stock
ing touch. Many of the newest kits
have matching lipsticks included,
as, for example, the one pictured
above. Typical of the moderately
priced variety, this set has a stun
ming case of bengaline fabric. 1t
contains two shades Of polish as
well as lpstick in harmonizing
tone and. of course, all the correct
implements for scientific manicur-
ing are included.
Manicure kits make a delightful
gift, for they are both practical in
their use and luxurious in appear
ance. Best of all, they are sure to
be received with real enthusiasm.
Here is one gift which never fails
to please the most fastidious wom-
an. And here's hint to the gen.
tlemen: You'd be very wise to give
your feminine gift list to the lady
who sells manicure kits Just stip-
ulate the amount you plan to spend
on each and she'll find a good-look-
ing kit to correspond. Simple, isn't
it? And not so expensive, either.
Personally, we think that half the
fun of Christmas is in buying those
surprisingly inexpensive gifts that
make such wonderful "little pres
ents." For example, one very IA
nous house has a new idea which
they call "key to beauty" It's a
key ring upon which are fastened
three lipsticks in red, white and blue
cases, respectively. Also attached to
the ring is a round disk for mono
gramming and the whole thing is so
clever, so new and attractive that
you'll want at least one to present
and one to keep for your very own.
They cost next to nothing and still
they're a quality gift from a we'll
known house.
Incidentally, the same manufac-
turer has couple Of other items
that couldn't be better. There's an
inexpensive set OF two cardboard
bells, each holding a dram Of per-
fume. You can buy them separately.
too. Or. a tall carton Of talcum
powder is topped by round cake
of soap-the whole thing dressed up
with ruff1es so that it represents the
jauntiest clown you have ever seen.
Slightly more expensive, but really
gift to do you proud, is the wonderful
compact with rouge, powder and
space to hold several Of those cleans
ing pads for removing makeup. In
addition, the clasp is actually gen.
erously sized ipstick. In spite Of the
fact that this compact has every
thing but hot and cold running

water, 1t is very neat, easy to carry
and not in the least bulky. You can
get it in red, white or black with
gold" scroll trimming.
Among the most awe-inspiring Of
the new gifts for Christmas is per-
fume container for your purse. It,
too, is easy on the budget-even
though it looks like something out
Of Carriers. The container is built
like an diversified hpstick and when
you take of the top there is a
tricky arrangement which permits
you to apply only drop Of per-
fume at a time.
Specifically. the way it works is
this: You fill the inside glass con-
tainer with your favorite fragrance.
Cts leak-proof and anti-evapora-
tive0 Place the glass vial back in
its snappy gold-plated outside con-
tainer and press the pointed end
down on your skin or clothing
where you want a drop Of the per-
fume to be. Only one drop is
emitted at a time. Thus saving
your precious supply. The con-
tainer, which comes in variety of
colors and types, is most impress
sive gadget and very handy one
for refreshing yourself from time to
time. Here Is another of those
happy ideas that can't miss. It's so
smart, so new and so entirely diff
ferent that 1t should turn out to be

Use Gentle Methods
When Washing Your
WOolen Blankets

With the first chilly days Of early
autumn, washing the woolen blank
cts Is q recurrent household require
ment. Proper care of blankets
makes a big difference In their
durability and appearance and the
frequent removal of dirt Is the num-
ber one rule.
Successful washing calls for sim
pie but definite measures. Unless
wool Is treated right it has ten
dency to shrink and to become stiff
and hard when wet.
Too much handling during the
washing Is one cause Of dissatis-
faction, but handling can be prac-
tically eliminated by the use Of
extra-heavy suds. Doubling or trip
ling the quantity of soap increases
its cleansing power so that little
handling is needed. Soil floats out
by itself.
Sudden changes in the tempera-
ture Of the water or extremes OF
temperature increase shrinkage and
cause the fibers to interlock and
become hard and stiff. For this
reason, the temperature Of both the
washing and rinsing waters should
be evenly lukewarm throughout.
After the final rinse, as well as
between rinses, excess water may be
extracted In the spinner Of the
washer or wrung out with the rolls
Of the wringer loosely adjusted to
avoid too much pressure on the nap.
If the washing is done by hand and
no wringer is available the blankets
should be hung dripping wet over
two parallel lines couple of feet
apart so the air has good chance
to circulate.
