President Hutchins
Soys Students Stoy

OCHICAGO, Sept. 5-(P-The
University of Chicago Is getting
along quite we'll without inter-
collegiate football, President
Robert NJ. Hutchins reports.
He said that when the sport
was abandoned at the end of the
1889 season some people feared
the schools enrolment would
suffer and alumni interest would
cool. But he added:
"As far as ] can see, neither
of these fears has been realized.
Enrolment has been we'll main
tanned. Alumni interest is, l be-
lieve at a higher pitch than at
any time since the foundation of
the University"
He said the University did not
withdraw from Western Confer
ence football because lit felt
morally super ior to other MEM
bers of the conference" but be-
cause lit could not compete with
out industrislizing the sport and
without engaging in practises
which, in addition to being be-
meath it's dignity, were in viola
ton of conference rules"

Bitsy Says
He'll Quit
Net Game

NEW 4OnA, SSpt. C-tH1-
Win or lose in his quarterfinal
match with young Ted Schroeder
today at Forest Hills, Bryan
Grant, Jr., that great little cam
paigner from Atlanta, vows this
is his swan song in the Ma
tional Tennis Championships.
If he is in earnest-and Bitsy
shakes his head for emphasis
then it is farewell to the most
colorful competitor of a tennis
generation, and goodbye to one
of the greatest players who new
er won the National Champion
ship. He has been a semifinal-
list three times; never a final
list.
Whatever I do against
Schroeder, this is my last swing
around the grass-court circuit"
declared the vest-pocket war
rior as he watched the rain come
down in sheets and cancel yes
terday's program.
1--WE had a good time for q
long time, and now I'm going
to attend to my insurance bus
mess. Maybe I'll want to play
in some tournaments around
home or down in Florida if l
figure it won't interfere with
making a living. But I'm through
with the big time"
Even if you should reach
the finals, Bitsy?" he was asked.
You know, you never played
better tennis in your life than
you have this week."
That's right, isn't it," he
grinned. Il guess life begins
at 80 for me-"
That is the little guys age
and this is as good a time as
any to pay him a tribute or two.
PLAYING SINCE 1880
It must have been about 1890
when the boys came home from
the National Clay Court Cham
pionship and were grousing that
they had been trimmed by lit
tie termite who didn't have a
thing except a pair of rubber
legs and a warped racket" That
turned out to be Grant, and
he's been at it ever since.
There's scarcely a tennis immor-
tai who hasn't at one time or
another taken a wholly unex-
pected beating from the atom"
WEIGHS ONLY 12O
He weighs about 100, clothed,
and needs a cushion under him
to see out of train window. He
serves a tennis ball mildly, and
his returns are medium-pace, to
be charitable. But one of the
treats of the current tourna-
ment has been to watch him
take the impetuous hell-fire
youngsters, feel around thought
fully until he found their weak
nesSes, and then beat them at
his leisure.
There might not be another
such player for a long time.
And whatever Schroeder does to
him today, what will you bet
he isn't back next year?

Citizens Plan Petition
On MARYLAND Hiqhway

Residents of Seat Pleasant. Capt.
tol Heights and Maryland Park plan
to petition Gov. O'Conor for con-
struction of proposed road on the
abandones W., B. & A. Railroad
right of way, it was announced to-
day.
Proponents of the road improve
ment program, led by members of
the volunteer fire departments, claim
the proposed highway would help
relieve traffic congestion on the
Defense highway, the Baltimore
boulevard and at Peace Cross, in
Bladensburg.
The proposed highway would open
up new communities, serve locali-
ties now without adequate roadways
and open up new taxing areas for
State and county income, the pc
tition declares.
Other improvements the firemen
are seeking include elimination of
a wooden bridge at Chapel road and
Roosevelt avenue, grading of the
Seat Pleasant School grounds and
removal of wooden steps in front of
the school, and construction of
shoulders along Chapel road.
