Around The
Cracker Barrel

was begun by measuring the width
of the outside entrance, through
which the shanty must be removed
The men allowed four inches lee
way.
In building the shanty, the ICON
tractors Tapped instead of matched
the end boards and stretched the
width of their four by five-foot
building two inches on each side.
The four inch leeway was thus lost.
On a Saturday, the men arrived
at the school and the problem Of
extricating their creation began
Much to their CONSERVATION the
building could not be squeezed
through the door at any angle
Social studies, industrial arts and
science proved to no avail in the
dilemma Forced alterations and
time eventually opened the way to
new hope, but the payoff came
when they never caught fish.

We cracker barrel yarn splnnerS
were recollecting Just the other
day how much fun We thought we
had swiping melons, breaking win
dows and raising so much devil
ment our mas" scarcely ever had a
peaceful minute. Youngsters today
are smarter They make friends
with cops and have twice as much
fun as we used to.
Why. just the sight OF an Off
Ger as tall as Ernie Rowe would
have had US trying TO swallow our
hearts and jump fences at the same
time to get away. Policemen didn't
conc so big in our day. Gosh, we'd
rather have been caught dead than
to have been in the same block
with him. Not so the modern Kids.
The minute schools out they make
a bee line for Ernie's back yard.
Guess the cops are smarter, too.
You know. Ernie has just about
the slickest scheme for keeping
boys out of trouble and happy at
the same time that We ever saw.
Drop around and you'll see what
we mean. That big back yard is the
best and safest skating spot in
town Ernie has even provided flood
lights and il anyone thinks kids
can't have fun without having eth
er money or mischief they ought to
see Ernie
Officer Joe Sackman could have
given cops OF our day some point
ers too. Bet even he doesn't know
how many kids he's lifted on and
off that motorcycle Of his Who'd
want to play hockey and miss
seeing Joe at the traffic light when
schools out.
We had another opportunity to
be proud of the younger generation
the other day too. They certainly
are there in the pinches.
We mean the way they got out
Of that tough spot at the "Shenani,
gans' program at the Catholic
Church Margaret Wills was the
pinch hitter there. She's the daugh-
ter of John Wills and his wife, you
must know them. She certainly
came through with flying colors
when Joyce Corbeille got the flu
and couldn't take part Those young
folks just switched the program
around so the play she was In came
last and while the rest of the num-
bers were given that Wills girl re-
hearsed the part. And the best part
OF it is, she did so darned we'll the
audience didn't know the differ
ence.
Guess we can be right proud OF
the younger generation. can't we?
Adults are getting a little more
common sense nowadays too. In
our time teachers for instance used
to be so doggone stiff necked they
didn't have any fun and we didn't
either. They never made mistake.
They were so blamed perfect 1t

We weren't happy like tie boys

ers used to be infallible. Now
they're human and II you don't

FIGURE PROBABILITIES

DESIRE to be known as a rapid
player keeps many bridge devo-
tees in the class OF mediocrity.
They like to have others brand
them as quick thinkers. and to
gain that unimportant distinction
they really make of themselves
shallow thinkers. They have
tendency to set out upon the work
Of making a contract by means
of the very first method they
see which has chance to
attain that result. The better
policy-and the only one followed
by really good players-is to look
for alternative ways and means.
and then figure the probabilities
In favor Of each as against the
other.

Los Angeles, Jan. 29.-(UP)-Put- ting the sports shot here and there. :.
 Roy Waldron is rapidly acquiring a reputation as the hard-luck trair1- CT of the turf. He scored his first and probably only-major triumph when GallahadiCn sreaked past Bimelech in the Kentucky Derby, but since then he has collected nothing but few useless nomina- ton blanks. His latest blow came with the discovery that Gallahadion will not train up to the $100,000 Santa Anita Handicap and that his employer, Mrs. Ethel V. Mars, won't be able to watch her silks in that race.
 The boys who have installed Chal- ledon as a 3-1 favorite in the future book on the golden gallop may also find their pretty bubbles broken. w.. L. Brann,s rangy Maryland-bred rapped himself the other day and won't be able to take his first start until the Santa Anita track dries out-which may be never.
