Bruins Meet
Rising Rangers
Slam. Beng Game Due
a. Red Wings Ars Idle


oTonight's only Nation . I
Hockey League game sends the
New York Rangers against the
Boston Bruins ut Boston, and Il
seems about time for one Of
those SIAM bang fracases which
have endeared these teams 70 the
fans for . good many years.
Boston now u the league Z
fast-moving team, unbeaten In
its last II starts and only . point
behind the second place Detroit
Red Wings. The Bruins have
beaten the New Workers twice
this season, tied them twice and
lost one decision.
But the Rangers, too, are
moving along, regaining q faint
semblance Of the form that car
ried them to z Stanley Cup vic
tory last spring. Their unbsatsn
streak il only four games, but
that has lifted them to fourth
place. Their defense, the cause
of many early-season losses,
has been tighter recently. They
have been up close to the Bruins
and the Toronto Leafs in scoring
right along.
The Bruin scoring machine
may not be quite as strong rs
usual for tonight's game. Woody
Dumart, first-string left 'winger,
aggravated an old knee injury
in Sundays game at Chicago
and will be out Of action.
Breaking up another combina-
ton, Art jackson will move up
to take his place. while Herb
Cain, recalled from Hershey,
will fill the utility role.
Meanwhile, Detroit, with no
chance to protect its hold on Sec
ond place tonight, is taking steps
to bring its six-game victoryless
streak to an end. Gus Geise-
brecht and Sid Abel are expect
ed to be taken off the caualty
list this week. Manager Jack
Adams is negotiating with the
Indianapolis American League
club for the loan Of Dick Behl-
ing, 192-pound defenseman. This
move would enable him to
strengthen the Wings attack by
moving Alex Motter from de-
Tense to center.

are approximately dozen species of
sedum represented. The outstand-
ing color of the garden is supplied by
the phlox. iberis, double tulip and
bleeding heart, which are not so rare
but more snowy.
The one item in this garden most
priced by its owner is still the origi-
nal sedum which started it all. 1t is
one Of the slow-growing varieties,
and there is only a very small patch
of 1t, which is tended with great care.
Mrs. Sprucebank has given small
twigs of it to start other rock gar
dens, in the hope that the new
garden will provide as much JOY and
health as she has derived from hers.
Among the new rock gardens which
have been given such an suspicious
start are those of her two married
daughters.

Newspapers and magazines are
now stressing the advent of spring
and the return of outdoor pursuits.
Gardening, to many people, is the
most fascinating of all hobbies. They
spend their summers planting, weed
ing, digging, watering, spraying and
fertilizing, and their winters plan
ming the next seasons crops. Thus
they derive pleasure from their gar
dens throughout the entire year.
Mrs. Harry E. Sprucebank has
been a member of this group for
some is years. When she and her
family moved into their new home
at 1924 Porter street NV, almost
her first consideration was for the
yard and the possibilities of gar
den. However, two years work was
required to haul in and prepare
enough suitable soil to make 1t
possible for anything but weeds to
grow. Then she devoted the next
seven years to the creation and
tending of a general flower garden
around the house.
A spell of sickness interrupted
Mrs. Sprucebank's gardening activ-
tiles about six years s.go and when
she was just able to be up and
around, one Of her daughters
brought her a sedum. Mrs. Spruce
bank made her way cflt to the yard
to plant the sedum, end while sit
ting there with the sun on her back
she began to feel somewhat better
and the idea Of makifs . rock gar
den was born

on the subject from the library.
Having absorbed sufficient informa-
tion on rock gardens, the next step
was the selection of suitable site.
The area along one side of the
house was chosen and prepared. A
ton of sand was used, and the soil
was made up of one third each by
volume of sand, topsoil and peat
moss, thoroughly mixed.
With the soil ready and a definite
plan in mind, Mrs. Sprucebank
started planting. Through the in
tervening years she has secured and
planted suitable flowers, sedums and
so on, at the same time wedding
and tending the entire area. This
alone is a not inconsiderable task,
and her rock garden has been re-
ferred to as a "weedless garden"

She alternateS between working in
the garden, resting and attending to
other household duties The rock
garden season starts late in February
and extends through May. There
are plants in bloom throughout the
summer, but the peak is just about
past, since the greater portion of
them are early blooming plants.
This garden contains 400 to 500
plants of some 125 species. About
80 per cent of these have been raised
from seed by the lobbyist herself.

Have you ever noticed how many
doctors are found in any list of dog
fanciers? There is something about
raising dogs that particularly ap-
peals to men of the medical profess
sion. Maybe it is the fact that dogs
never discuss their symptoms, try
to diagnose their own ailments or
try to get free medical advice on
social occasions. Or maybe it is the
fact that they are so much engaged
in dealing with diseased Or deformed
bodies that they relish the thought
of trying to create living perfection.

luck as well as proof that you can't

art is not going out of his way to

fun last. That is the real way to get
the most pleasure out of owning a

The Potomac Boxer Club speciality
show was the largest and finest ag-
gregation of boxers ever assembled
this far south. Some of the most
highly rated dogs in the country
were assembled to compete for the
rich prize money and trophies Of
fered by the club and to undergo the
expert inspection of Fred Hamm,
president of the American Boxer
Club. 1t was doubly gratifying, then,
to have so many local dogs place so
well.
Particularly noteworthy was the
win of Howell Moss's Hett av Schen-
gelbe, 5-year-old -colored
boxer, who made her debut at a
licensed show here. Not only did
she win over large field of seasoned
campaigners, some of them very near
to their championships, but her
daughter, Dore Brownie, was reserve
winner. The judge was seemingly
very much impressed by the quality
of this pair.
Another noteworthy win was that
of Belinda the Beautiful model, DR..
John Elvin's bulldog. Since the
Washington Bulldog Club, too. was
holding a speciality show here the
largest entry of bulldogs ever
gathered south of the Mason Dixon
line was here for competition. It
was also the fourth largest bulldog
entry of the past year in the whole
country.
Incidentally, George T. Elgey, who
came from Toronto, Canada, to judge
the sourmugs, was immensely i'm
pressed by the friendly spirit of the
local fanciers and the local kennel
club.

By r. r. Taynton.

Washingtons doggy week ended
last Sunday with the big show on
the polo field of the armory at
Pikesville. Md. The one-week round
of dog shows had started the Sun
day before with the show in the
armory at Teaneck, N. j., and then
moved to the armory at Charlottes-
vile, Va. The next event was held
in the Municipal Building at Nor
folk, where at least one exhibitor
found as much interest in the ar
ticles manufactured by w. P. A.
workers in the same building as IN
the dogs on display. After this came
the shows at the State Fair
Grounds in Richmond, where the
dogs were benched in a cattle barn;
at the Alexandria baseball diamond
and finally the windup at Pikesville.
Both heartburns and thrills at
tended the exhibitors, especially
those who made the whole circuit.
The latter were so tired by the sec
ond Sunday that they declared dog
shows completely out of their minds
at least until Morris and Essex, the
last Saturday in May. Some were
so tired that they failed to bring
their dogs to the Pikesville show.
although the entry fees had been
paid.
In spite of all fatigue and all COM
ment on the foolishness of circuit
chasing, the men in Foley's tent
were kept quite busy on both days
taking last-minute entries for the
Bryn Mawr Dog Show at the Phila-
delphia Country Club on May 3.
Many of the most tired exhibitors
had sufficient faith in their powers
of recuperation to plan entries for
the Delaware County and Hunting
ton Valley shows next Saturday and
Sunday, although entries for these
fixtures will not be taken until this
evening.
However, they are made of sterner
stuff out West. The first out-of-
town entry for the Alexandria show
was that of a bloodhound owned by
Pearl and Edd Armstrong Of Long
Beach, Calf Come to find out, Edd
is a retired policeman from Los An
geles, who took to raising blood
hounds as a hobby when he left
the force. He named his kennel
idol Ours, started taking a great
interest in promoting the blood
hound as a show breed, made a
champion or two. including Bucca-
neer of Idol Ours, and then set out
to see America. There is nothing
that can give seeing America a
greater llhp than touring it be-
tween dog shows, so his route was
laid out to take in as many dog
shows as possible. That meant TAX
ing in most of the Southern circuit
in April, switching to the ahows
around Philadelphia in May, and
on to Morris and Essex the end OF
May. Then, as the weather gets
