over a slacker's job, or making up for
an incurable incompetent's short

upon. But it does mean a sympathetic
perception OF the occasion when little
extra time spent in helping - or sub
stituting for - another will be only
kind and decent And this sort of per-
ceptiveness is characteristic of almost
all who are held in affection. 1t might
be added that thoroughbred not only

One point to emphasize is that it
takes time for those who are brought
into close relationships to test one

kind of sensitiveness foredooms failure.
If our sensitiveness is focused on our
own feelings, and we use our percep-
tions merely to notice whether other
people are appreciative of US. then the
sooner we cure this sort of sensitive
ness, the better. But if it makes us
understand the point of view, and per-
ceive the feelings, of others, then it is
a quality of value.
There is no greater evidence of lack
of talent for getting along with people,
than chronic habit of thinking about
ourselves, and what others may be
thinking about US. There is no surer
way of making ourselves disliked,
than by too consciously Standing on
our dignity" or being afraid of being
asked to do something which is not
our own job! In other words, sensitive
ness which, like spotlight. throws its
full beams inward upon ourselves, and
leaves other people unseen in the
darkness, is not the way to win the
sympathetic understanding of others.
And now last and most important
are the close enforced relations be-
tween strangers of greatest dis
similarity - the selectees in the Army.
A selectee is likely to find himself in
barracks or in a tent with men of diff
ferent backgrounds, tastes, and points
of view. The situation is made some
what easier than it otherwise would
be, of course, because all are doing the
same thing, in the same way, and all
are trying to reach the same goal
t0gsther!
All the same, living in such unavoid-
ably close quarters, as in the Army
barracks, requires ability to endure
annoyances and to try not to resent
them. At close quarters, all small
annoyances become exaggerated.
se-makers get on the nerves of
nearly everybody. A person who in
cessantly huns or whistles the same
tune, who practices on an instrument,
who keeps radio going, or even
cracks his knuckles, or twirls key
ring, or slams the door every time he
goes in or out, is likely to produce the
effect of the drop-of-water torture!
The best advice in this kind and
every kind of every human contact, is
still that of the Golden Rule, with the
additional requirement of being able
to put yourself so completely in the
place of another, as to see with his
eyes, to feel as he feels, and then show
him the same treatment you would
want him to show you if you were in
his place!

with her fellow workers in the Office,
may find that in time the disadvantage
which was hers, and the advantage
which was another s may have changed
places. Her unpopularity may not be
due to any lack in her character or
any unlovableness, but simply to the
fact that she did not know how to make
a fair presentation of herself.
The most usual reason for initial
unpopularity is shyness. Shyness
takes on contradictory manifestations:
1t makes one girl shrink into herself,
unable to talk, unable to take the first
step forward. always having to wait
until the other person has come toward
her at least three-quarters of the way.
Yet, in another, the same sense of
inferiority, which produces shyness,
camouflages itself behind fragrant
boasting. Neither attitude makes a
favorable first impression.
Both of these shy people, however,
reap great advantage in being thrown
into close contact with roommates, or
fellow workers, who cannot help be-
coming aware of hitherto unrealized
admirableness of character.
Don't OvsrssH Yourself
ON THE other hand a person, who
becomes popular quickly, may be
found to have oversold his or her
wares purely by means of a charming
smile, or habit of saying an enthusi-
astic yes" When put to real test,
however, this readiness to be the de-
voted friend of all may, little by little,
prove to be an incapacity for real
friendship with any.
In the social world, girl or man
may win instant popularity by traits
which are no more than tricks; there
is the trick of a brilliant smile, the
trick of concentrated attention, even
the trick of Madame Recamier. who
habitually exclaimed to an arriving
visitor, "At lastp' and to departing
one, so soon?"
Often, of course, these character
istics are not tricks, but spontaneous
and genuine gestures and phrases.
If so, daily close association will re-
veal our real qualities. That is just the

Fielding and pitching evidently
were more responsible for the

impression cleaned from figures
compiled by the circuits scorer and
ace statistician, young Bill Ethe-
ridge.

championship play-off, if one be-
comes necessary, by a comfortable
margin, but stood fourth in hitting

Max Posnack the only hitter crash
ing the first 10, the Brewers pounded
out 81 hits in 24O official appear
ances at the plate, but they made
the most of these by scoring 43
runs.
An analysis of the figures reveals
that the city champs hit in the
clutch when a bingle meant run,
took advantage of their opponents
miscues and while waiting for that
one to come down the alley drew
more than their share of passes.

Midqet Auto Races to Christen
EWest Lonhom Plant June TO-;
Owners Plans Ambitious

With midget automobile racing
as the first scheduled attraction,
the newest athletic stadium in the
vicinity will open its gates June
10, one week from Tuesday night,
at West Lanham, Md.
Owned by Edward L. Mahoney,
a retired realtor, the $4,000 plant
will be known as the West Lanham
Speedway, but already plans are
being made to stage football, boxing
and other major sports on the site
The speedway is located on the
Defense Highway, four miles north
of the Peace Cross at Bladensburg.
A normal seating capacity of
5000 will be enlarged to 10000 on
opening night, but Mahoney's plans
call for an eventual seating of
10000 for football and $4,000 for
boxing. The land on which the
speedway has been built is owned
by Mahoney, who is said to have the
backing and contacts necessary to
make one of the finest athletic
plants of its kind in the country.
Mahoney and his hackers will
not confine their stadium to sports,
for they are planning a recreation
center along the lines of Glen Echo
Amusement Park. A swimming pool
dance pavilion and tennis courts
already have been discussed. Free
parking will be available for 5000
cars.
The model track for midget racing
will be macadamized in such fashion
as to eliminate skidding and the
blowing of dust on the spectators.

1t was the second defeat for the

The chucking chores for Small will
be intrusted to Johnny Flynn,
husky portsider who has a no-hit,
no-run game to his credit this sea-
son and is rated one of the most
potent slabmen in the circuit.
Small has won two games since
dropping its debut to the Florists
and has good chance of whipping
the potent Brewers, whose only
loss was at the hands of the pace
making Miller Furniture nine. Most
fans think Heurich a bit too lucky,
however, and expect the veteran
outfit to crack up almost any day.
Last week the team had to travel
10 innings to nose out Orange Disc,

tories were luck-anointed, one-run
