Griffith has to pile the entire squad

Robbins last night expressed the
hope the national committee would
allot sufficient funds to take at least
two more men. Who the added
starters would be in this event he
couldn't say, but pointed out that
they would be selected on a basis of
their merits regardless of their
branch of activity.
Whether the boys will run in the
senior or junior events has not been
decided, excepting in Kehoe's case.
Jim's triumph last year makes him
ineligible for further JUNIOR compe-
tition. Robbins and Griffith expect
to thumb through the list of pros

ANNAPOLIS, Md, May 31-Army
walked off with the featured la
crosses game with Navy today after
thrilling battle, to 5, but the
Midshipmen gained some solace by
winning at golf, to 4, and at ten
mis-, 7 to 2.
Tom Galloway, Towson MD
midfielder, and Capt. Joe Thigpen,
Ruston UaD first attack, sparked
Army to its lacrosse victory.
Galloway got three and Thigpen
two goals to lead the hard-riding
Cadets to their eighth win of the
season and their second straight
triumph over the Middies.
1t was Army's fifth win in the
service stick rivalry which began in
1924 Navy has won eight service
clashes and one was dealocked.
Navy Makes Great Fight.
The star ten put up a gallant
fight against the favorite Graylegs,
making a desperate last-ditch stand
when trailing to in the final
quarter
But Thigpen's hard shot on the
edge of the crease in the closing
minutes killed Navy's chances of
stalmating the game, witnessed by
5000 spectators who braved a light
rain to see the service teams collide.
Navy, playing heads-up ball at
the start, took a 2-to-l lead in
the first quarter but the brilliant
West Point attack riddled the Mid
die defense in the second period for
four goals to Navy's one.
Army's 5-to-3 lead at .halftime
came in handy because Navy fought
the Cadets to a standstill in the
last two periods, each ten garnering
two markers.
Galloway, former st Johns
College lacrosseman, led the West
Point charge in the second quarter,
shooting two goals and passing to
Thigpen for another tally Al
Reinert, Army in home, got the
first score of the period.
GalloWay's third-quarter goal gave
Army 63 margin but Dave Peto,
Navy substitute, hit the webbing
and Gus Brady, Navy's outstanding
attackman, followed suit in the final
period, putting the Tars within one
point of a tie.
The teams battled tooth and nail
to keep possession of the ball in
the final quarter and Thigpen's
final goal settled it.
Army's attack was more polished
than Nays, throwing the Middies'
defense off balance. Time and time
again in the second quarter, the
Cadets out-maneuvered the Middies,
having men open most of the time.
The game was rough with both
tens using body blocks frequently.
Sticks flew in the third quarter, the
roughest of any period.
The Cadets scored two of their
goals on extra men while Navy got
one of its markers when an Army
PLAYER was on the sidelines.

Cadet Earl Brown, l up, on the
18th hole to give Navy its golf

ABOARD U. s. NAVY PATROL BOMBER OVER THE ATLANTIC Jonah in the whale is perfectly plausible to the crew of Navy flying boat. That's the shape of their workshop, and you've got to play corkscrew to get around in- side.
 The men around me savvy the crooks and turns. That makes it simple for them, but I find dozens of gadgets to step on, trip over and bang my head against. Lucky the designer thought to pad some of these objects.
 I seem to have developed a positive genius for sitting down Oil rgsion-filled seabags and knocking flare pistols sky winding into the solarium-that's what they call the blisters on the fuselage aft. It's bright and sunny out there. It's the home of the gunners.

SWEETHEART OF
 DROWNED SITkA SOLDIER MISSING
Mother Believes Despond- N eni Daughter Is Now
 Headed for Alaska

OAKLAND, Cal, Oct. 1 - Mrs. Betha Johannsen told officers here last night that she believed her daughter Anne, l6, is headed for Sitka, Alaska, hitch-hiking alone and with only $lo in her pocket in desperate hope she may find her soldier sweetheart, Selectee Henry Hayden. still alive.
 The mother said she found the following note in her daughters room:
 a'"I am going to satisfy myself whether he is dead or alive. Don't call the police and don't try to stop me. I have made up my mind
 The mother said Anne learned Friday from the youths parents, at watsonville, Cal, that Hayden and two companions went on 3 picture taking expedition in a canoe and failed to return to his Sitka army base.
 Search revealed the overturned canoe and body of one of the soldiers, but no trace of Hayden
 Anne has known Henry more than year" Mrs. Johannsen told police. "She has been heartbrokel and desolate. I am afraid some thing may happen to her"

Every inch of space is taken up by something. Neat squares of canvas tackled to the hull carry most of the stowage, i'm cluding the yellow life jackets. These are rubber contraptions. Dangling down from them are two pieces of plastic about the size of dice. Pull them and you punch a hole in a carbon di- exide gas cartridge. Then your belt blows up like a pOuter pigeon and you're supposed to be saved from drowning. If we get a ducking in that ice water down there I wonder whether that ten minutes of life would really be worthwhile.

Almost underfoot along the 60- odd feet of runway are chests of tools, spare pafts and whatnot, all screwed down. Near each mans normal position is oxygen appara- tus and mask. The ship will climb to 25,000 feet. At 15,000 men some- times go silly without oxygen, try a waltz or play tag.
 The various banks of indicators carry clocks, all of them with dii- ferent brands of time. One usually is on Greenwich time. A copper still finds one small gap of space. In case of forced landing the men can brew fresh water indefin- itely.
 We've got all the comforts of home except the easy chair in the living room. Somehow I don't seem to miss it up here.

project. Owners of power tools need
little advice on making this molding
since it can be cut on the table
saw, shaper or drill press fitted
with the proper cutter.
Hand-tool workers will require
the 1-inch rabbet plane shown in
the upper center of the Illustration
and some sandpaper. do not often
recommend the purchase of a new
tool, but the plane shown here and
costing less than S. has a range of
usefulness which goes far beyond
the single job on the mantel.
Only l inch wide and capable of
fine adjustment, it is ground per-
fectly fiat and square on either side
for accurate work. In addition the
plane of this type can be used as a
nose plane for working in corners
and close quarters by removing the
front section carrying the ring
handle.
The upper right-hand detail
sketch in the accompanying illuStra-
ton shows the various cuts required
with this plane for molding the for
ward edge of the mantel shelf. After
the second cut a series of light
rounding cuts are made and then
the whole is Sandpapered for final
smoothness. This same procedure is
followed in making the mold1ng.
Two Molding Shapes Required.
OF the two molding shapes re-
quired the first needed will be that
for covering the joint between the
panels and the fireplace facing. The
step-by-tep shaping of this molding,
from a pine strip | by IL inches, is
shown along the left-hand border
of the Illustration
This molding should be fitted to
make a tight, mitered frame around
the fireplace facing. Chip away any
excess cement and plane down the
molding until this tightness is
achieved. Do not fasten it in place,
however, because it is a floating
frame and is fastened only to the
panels.
The two side panels are cut next.
The angle for the upper end is OBJ
tanned by measurement after the
edges have been planed down. to

ton of the walls. With brick veneer
the framework of the house is COW
cred with sheathing boards, and
these in turn with waterproof paper
or felt The brick veneer is built
up on the outside, leaving a space
of an inch or so between the bricks
and the sheathing. In a rain, water
is likely to find its way through the
single thickness of brickwork and to
run down inside. 1t collects in the
bottom of the space between the
brlckwork and the Sheathing; its
only possible escape is around the
SlllS and into the cellar. The remedy
is to drill quarter-inch holes through
the mortar joints of the brickwork,
so that water can drain through and
escape outside.
Plywood Floor.
Q. Would it be all right to use
three-quarter-inch plywood, to be
covered by lnoleum, for the floors
of summer home at one of the
inland lakes?
A. Waterproof plywood should be
excellent for that purpose. Plywood
made with CLUES that are not wa
terproof might blister in time.
Frosted Bathroom.
@. I visited my summer cottage
at time when the temperature was
below zero. The ceiling and much
of the side walls of the bathroom
were covered with frost crystals,
which did not appear anywhere else
in the house. Water had been drawn
off, traps sealed with kerosene and
toilet removed. What could have
caused the frosting?
A. At the time you were doing the
work in the bathroom, there was

of miter joint of the inner molding
to the top, outer corner of the ver-
tical piece supporting the shelves.
Don't attempt to miter this end
Make a square cut along the line
of the angle. 1t is much easier to
plane away the ends of the top
panel for smooth joint than it is
to work out the rather complicated
mitering which would be required
When both Sideboards have been
cut and fitted they are paneled by
making dado cuts around the four
sides, using the rabbet plane again
These cuts are 3-16 inch deep by
Ia inches wide. Clamp a wood
guide strip along each edge to work
the plane against. In making the
rear cut remember to allow addi-
tional width for that part of the
| panel covered by the molding. Swing
the rabbet plane out to take off the
ridges or use an ordinary jack plane
to finish up. Sand for SmoothnesS,

The inner molding is then nailed
10 the side panels, as shown In the
lower left-hand detail, and the pan
els are nailed in place, as shown in
! the lower right-hand detail. For

bead molding is inserted in the
joints between the side and ton
panels. This is merely a strip of
pine Il inch thick by 1 inch wide
having rounded edge which pro-
JectS slightly. 1t is tackled in place
on the side panels before the top is

Next the horizontal strip of mold
ing is fitted into place and the mi
tered joints fastened with long fin
lShlng nails. (At this point il
should be fairly obvious that the
framing of the fireplace must be
carried out before the mantel shelf
has been fastened in place, since
the upper panel closes the frame
and all work on it must be done from
above.)
The upper panel is first cut with
roughly square ends and laid in

Patriotic CoIors Popular

According to Tom Lee, New York
colorlst and interior decorator, pub
lie preferences are swinging to two
types of colors-patriotic and pas
toral." Military and naval colors
Will grow in popularity, he predicts
but parallel to this will also de-
velop longing for more pastoral
more idyllic colors-the very oppo-
site of militant hues" With such
quiet and inspiring colors on the
walls OF their rooms, Mr.. Lee feels
people will seek to escape the rising
tide of war news and activity.
