Proposals To Lengthen The
Work Week Hit By Official

Newark, y. J. GLNS) Proposals
to lengthen the work week were de-
nounced by Frank j. G.. Dorsey Of
Philadelphia, regional director Of the
Wage and Hour Division, United
States Department Of Labor, at the
annual dinner Of the Pennsylvania
Society Of New Jersey here.
1t was illogical, Dorsey said, to
talk Of longer hours while thousands
Of persons are still unemployed" and
"to say that those who have a job
should work longer and those who do
not have a job should thus be de-
prived Of an opportunity to earn a
living for themselves and their fami-
lies"
He declared that the proper time
to speak Of lengthening the work
week would be when all available
workers had been given jobs and there
was still a need Of speeding up pro-
duction.

Many hummingbirds are hummlng
farther and farther southwark these
days. Some will not rest until they
enter the torrid zone. Others will
spend the winter in extreme south
ern parts of the United States or in
Northern Mexico.
Hunnmingbirds are residents OF
the New World. They are not found
in Africa. Europe, Asia or Australia.
Seven kinds of hummingbirds are
known in the United States. Hun
dreds of other kinds never fly north
of Mexico.
Close to 600 kinds of humming-
birds are known. Most OF them
make their nests in the torrid zone.
A few kinds fly to Southern Argen-
tina when that country has its sum-
ner.
Hummingbirds are not all of the
same size. Some are larger than
sparroWs, but two kinds are smaller
than members of any other bird
family.
Vervain hummingbirds of the is
land of Jamaica are extremely small.
They are only about 21a inches long.
Their nests are less than an inch
wide, and their eggs are less than
Y of an inch long!

CHURCHILL. 1t should be noted
that the surname of England's
Prime Minister, winston Leonard
Spencer Churchill, is not formed by
adding "hill' to the word church.
Nor should the name be pronounced
"church-hill," as it often is heard
on the air. The correct pronuncia-
ton is:
CHURCHILL.
WEYGAND. At the time of this
writing. Gen. Maxine Weygand was
pro-consul for French colonies in
North Africa.
The wv" of Weygand is pro-
pronounced "V." In the second syl-
liable, the "n" is strongly nasalized.
The I'd" is silent. Say:

Fairy Hummingbird Smallest in World

only "a inch long, and one kind has
bill barely "a of an inch in length.
"Hummers" often sip nectar from
flowers. They are fond of the sap
of the sugar maple, and take nectar
from honeysuckle, jasmine and lilac
blossoms. Yet they also eat their
share of insects. Some kinds are
very fond of spiders.
The humming noise made by these
birds gave them their name. Usually
they do not sing in any true sense
of the word, though they may twit-
ter or squeak.
That is the general rule, but sew
eral kinds have real song" The
vervain hummingbird, for example,
often MARBLES a weak but sweet song
from the top of mango or orange
tree.

Of greater significance than the

By GEORGE SONNY" FRANCK Minnesota All-Amcrica Back

MINNEAPOLIS - Midwest foot ball will have it's great teams in 1941, despite the loss of a few stars by the draft.
 In the Big Ten itself, Bernie Bierman's Gophers seem ready to ride the tide again. Captain Bruce Smith will be one of the seasons really great backs and sophomore half from Montana, Herman Frickey will do all right at right half when Smith moves over to be jack of all trades. Two giant tackles, Odson and Wildung, will be the line mainstays.
 It won't be easy sledding for Minnesota, though. Michigan Will be in the midst of the battle as usual. The Wolverines lose Har- mon and Evashevski but Vest fall will be there and he is one of the midwest's best fullbacks and tough no matter who is in the backfield. He is undoubtedly the best spinning fullback in the cour- try. Their line is led by Wistert, equally as good as his famous brother was a few years back.
 Then there's Northwestern, all ways tough in anybody's league. Waldorf and Ingwersen will no doubt put together a good team. They will have a good lineg with tackle Ali Bauman, and so many good backs it is useless to try to name them. Of course, there is their captain, Paul Soper, Bill De- Correvont and Clawson to men, tion a few.

 squad. To me, Ohio State is the
 dark horse of the Western con-
 ference.
 Indiana will be stronger. Illinois, with internal trouble finally set tied, will start to move up soon but not this year unless Zuppke finds couple of Red Oranges. His line is tough and I'll bet that he will give Minnesota a good battle. Certainly they will point for this game. Remember what they did to Michigan in 1889?
 Iowa and Purdue will ride the lower end of the scale again, but this league doesn't have any weak sisters and any of the lower raters may sock any of the top notchers and run away with the champion ship. The Big Tens just like that. And there's Wisconsin about due under Harry Stuldreher. After a bad start last year, he got bunch of sophomores together for a fact finish.
 Now those fellows all have a
 years experience and they will
 be mighty tough if that quar-
 terback problem can be
 strengthened out. They have an exceptionally fine end in :. Schriner. They have a group of good backs that might blos-
