NTEAMS SHOW IN FINE GAMES. FROM I P, M, ON
Green to Toss Up First Ball; Trio of Senior
 TiIts Listed

With the new Anderson school gymnasium, now Q reality rather than Q rumor, thanks to more than 9 little plain and fancy pressure by the East End Community club, little time was lost in forming 0 basketball league that opens lts first season tonight.l No less than five games involving 30 to 3b play CTS will tS presented from ' o'clock until closing, with large crowd assured for the inaugural inaS- much as there is to Do no admis- sion charged.
 For several weeks, since the com- pletlon of the gym, prospective teams to play in the league have been working out" with the result that speedy circuit seems prob- able, and the winner of the senior competition almost sure to chal. lenge the Washington Hill league winner at the end of the season, if the calibre of the winners is equal.
 Jimmy Creem, president of the East End Community Club, will be on hand to toss up the first ball, and, as Jim is an old Wilby hook shot artist h .iself, Q product of the 1919 era, and hoop fan ever since, his toss is expected to be straight, high and true enough to allow him to get out of the way before the kids climb up his back. Knights and Partners will tangle in the first game Rt 2 D. m, to be followed by the Bears and Rebels at 7:4b D. m.
 Older Boys Play.
 After that, tho Senior league swings into action with 0 triple. header, 50 that the final gam c ought to be over in time foY break fast, Shamrocks and East Ends are carded for the first CG the Sen- Tor games ct 8:30 D, m. If She sehed- ulo can be adhered to though, with q five game program, and each team allowed five time-outs, plus substitutionS and time between perods and halves, 1t will take some great Inaneuvering to get oil games started on time,
 When the East Ends and Sham rocks wind up, they will be fol. lowed by the Maple Hills and Gulf Prides and at i0;30 p. m. the final and fifth game is scheduled be- tween the Fairlawns and NH Plain A, O.
 The officiating team of Phelan and Doran will blow the whistle during tho quintuple header and with even minor details ironed out, Q fine basketball season Is lust ahead with c new gym, new league and new crowd of fans in the mak- Ing to provide weekly competition and sport that will be a decided aid to east end activities.

IDUQUESNE AGAIN HAS WINNER,

DonelIi Drops One Game
 In Three Years
BY HARRY ORAYsoN NEA Service Sports Writer

Pittsburgh-Picking the coach as well as the team of the year, foot ball filberts would do well Co ex- anime the three-year record of the dandy, daring, washing, devas- tating and durable Dukes of Due uuesne University and their dy- ramic little homegrown leader, Aldo T. Donelli.
 Buff Doneln took command of the Pittsburgh squad in the spring of 1889. He is the first DuqueSne graduate to head the athletic stan of his alma mater. Every coach in every sport ct Duquesne is graduate of the institution. This Is Donelli's first head-coaching job.
 When Donelli, who played half- back fer Elmer Layden, took over as successor to John P. (Little Clipperl smith, the one-time Notre Damer, he inherited Q squad of 34 which included IS sophomores, Graduation and scholastic defi- ciencies almost decimated the reg ulars of the previous autumn.

Defense Lags In
A Vital Spot
French States
Outmoded Distribution
Methods Prevent Mil
lions From Getting Adj
equate Diet.

America is tagging in a vital de-
Tense effort-the health of its peo-
ple- Earl r. French, marketing di-
rector of the Atlantic Commission
Company, A & P's produce buying
affiliate, said last Saturday.
Outmoded methods of distribu-
tion whereby a surplus of middle
men increase the cost Of food to
the consumer, are preventing many
of the country's $4,000, 900 under
nourished from obtaining fresh
fruits and vegetables and other
vitamin-rich foods, Mr.. French
said, speaking in a nationwide
broadcast.
There is something lacking in
our system Of moving fruits and
vegetables from the farm to table
something vitality necessary to
meet the tremendous demands of
Defense" French said. "That is
efficiency. Much of our food must
pass through too many hands and
many of these in-between stages
have long since outlived their use
fulness. This inefficiency boosts
the price to the consumer out of
proportion to the price paid the
grower. Consequently, it is impos-
sible in too many instances for the
people of low income to get the
food they should have to maintain
health-health vitality important to
meet the stress of emergency con-
ditions."
AS an example of how increased
efficiency by distributors benefits
both producers and consumers, he
cited improved methods which en-
abled A & P to return to its fruit
and vegetable growers in 1910 a 13
per cent greater share of the con-
sumer's dollar than in 1887 and, at
the same time, afforded the COM
pany's customers the lowest food
prices in relation to its costs in its
82-year history.
Mr.. French, former instructor of
marketing at New York University,
cited the report that in every 10
men examined in the draft, were
rejected because of disabilities
traceable to one cause-poor nutri-
tion. The greatest deficiencies of
the national diet are in fruits and
vegetables, he declared.
"The governments nutritionists
have determined that 45,0OO,00O of
our people do not eat the right
foods. They say we should con-
sumo at least twice as many green
vegetables and fruits; 20 per cent
more tomatoes and citrus fruits;
35 per cent more eggs; 20 per cent |
more milk and Is per cent more
butter"
Many Americans "just don't know
what good, nutritive meal is. |
Their eating habits are wrong"
French added. He cited the recent I
program inaugurated by the gov
ernment in which educational I
food chains and the med /
ical profession are cooperating, /
promoting wider use of fruits and /
vegetables, for use at table and for I
canning against the winter.
