 A. Confectioners use 1t to make the candies called jelly pieces; drug and cosmetic manufacturers use 1t in lotions and emulsionS for smoothness.

Smith Wins Acclaim
In Comeback Try
With Redskins
Quits Engineering Job,
PIons to Be Teacher;
Scrimmoee on Top
BY BILL DISMER. Jr,
Star Staff Correspondent.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Aug. 23.-
Whether it was based on self-conf1-
dence or sheer nerve, you've got to
admire the decision which sent
George Smith to the Redskins 1941
training camp for another crack,
after q three-year absence, at the
center position he held on the In
dians' world championship team
of '37.
For, with wife and 6-weeks-old
daughter dependent upon him,
Smith gave up an engineering job
in the petroleum industry he had
held for three years in the hope
that a Redskin salary would keep
the wolf from the Smith door until
he enters upon a new career in
February.
Smith. as you may have heard by
now, didn't seek to rejoin the Red
skins in 1888, 80 or 40 because of
a shoulder injury which threatened
to become permanent If he played
much football. but he didn't forsake
the gridiron altogether during those
three falls. In 1888 he played a few
games with a semi-pro outfit in Los
Angeles. In 1889 he filled in for
awhile with the Los Angeles Bull
dogs. And last year he played four
games with the team which U. C.
L. AS Kenny Washington assembled
for exhibitions on the Coast.
To Contend With Andrako.
Consequently. when he finished
playing last season and no sign of
his injury had reappeared. George
starting thinking seriously about
this falls activities. His thoughts
eliminated in request to join his
old mates, which was granted.
Now it appears as If the 27-year-
old University Of California product,
who wants to discard an engineer
ing job for the more refined pro-
fession Of a school teacher, has
good chance of becoming the squad
third center. Micky Parks and Vic
Carroll have been converted into
guards, leaving only Ki Aldrich. Bob
Tichenal and Steven Andrako as
Smiths rivals for the three center
berths.
It's ALREADY conceded that Aldrich
and Tichenal will be the first-string
centers, leaving the battle for the
third post strictly between Andrako
and Smith. The ex-Buckeye seems
much improved over the 1910 An
drake. but Coach Ray Flaherty has
liked the way Smith has handled
himself ever since practice started
last Monday.
First Scrimmage Today.
George reported at 200 pounds.
but expects to get down to 2l5, his
playing weight four years ago. He
already has shed 2 pounds. II he
sticks. Smith will re-enter college
in February to start on his M. A.
degree. which would qualify him to
teach mathematics in junior COL
lege He earned his B. S. in engi-
neering in 1898.
The first indication of how
Andrako and Smith compare was to
be provided this afternoon at the
years first scrimmage 1t was the
start of the succeed -or-fail sessions
for the rockies and a case of the
best man winning regular job.

Baltimore Golf Ends
Major Competition
For D. T.. Women
Only Minor Meets Left
On List Here; Area Led
By Betty MeckIey

Both major feminine links tourna-
ments listed for the fall months in
this sector are scheduled for Baltl-
more clubs this year The affair
for the Mrs. Ralph w. Payne Tro-
phy will be played at Rolling Road
Club September "a, Is and 26 over
the 54-hole route, while the Middle
Atlantic women's championships
goes to the Five Farms course OF
the Baltimore Country Club.
Both events were played at Wash
ington clubs last year, with Mrs.
Jerome Sloman of Baltimore win
ming the mid-Atlantic title at
Chevy Chase, while Mrs. Myron
Davy. donor of the Payne Trophy,
won the initial event for the cup at
Congressional
More Journeys Here.
But the women, while they will
not have any more major events at
clubs in the immediate Capital area
this year, have several more tour
neys coming up before they close
the book on the 1941 season, which
has been high lighted by a phe-
nominal series of successes from the
hot clubs of Betty Meckley, steady
Kenwood veteran.
In September they'll play In
several Journeys, as follows: Sep
tember 2. woman-pro event, Con-
gressional; S, Corby Cup, Columbia;
is. Times Herald Cup, Congressional
and Kenwood.
Mrs. Meckley, who has been win
ming femme tournaments around
Washington since 1928. has been the
top golfer of the year without ques-
ton. 1t isn't usual for low
handicapped golfer to win net prizes,
vet she has don't it, not once but
three times. She won the Keeler
Trophy at Washington, The Star
Cup at Washington and the Ma
tional Broadcasting Co. Cup at
Columbia, setting new course
record in the last-named tourney.
In Class by Herself.
Earlier she had won the Maryland
State title at Chevy Chase, soon after
losing IN tne nnal round OF lne
District championship to Mrs. Wal
ter r. Stokes.
BY any count Mrs. Meckley. on her
record so far, Is the No. l feminine
golfer of the year around the Ma
tional Capital. And she seems to
improve as the years roll on.
At her present rate she'll be win
ming titles at the age of so, as was
being done not long ago by two
veteran feminine golfers in the
Philadelphia area. That is, unless
some youngster comes along to take
over the winning of titles among
the women. And at present there
isn't a youngster around who can
come close to licking the Maryland
champion.

Poland Looks for Easy Victory
Over Blunt, Claiming Dusky
Boxer Is Not Hard to Hit

For a young man with a tough
fight on his hands Bill Poland is
paragon of confidence His duel
with bruising Eddie Blunt at Grit
fifth Statium next Wednesday night
isn't worrying him any more than
the average installment collector,
and you know how they get the old
brush-off. We mean he thinks
about it, but not seriously.
Noah Webster's book has a nota-
ton after self confidence that flares
UP like a red light before this youth
full knight without shining armor
and should ring a mental warning
bell in his well modelled head. 1t
reads often overconfldence. !"
There is trace OF this dread
malady in Bills makeup and it
clearly was visible yesterday as
beads of perspiration cascaded down
his 1.-the, tanned frame while
Trainer Whitley Bimstein cooled
him out after a torrid session in the
ring. Blunt? Well, he's gotten
some good press notices, hasn't he?
They say he's good. but Poland isn't
overly impressed by the .dusky war
rior
Familiar With Blunts Style.
II worked with him in the gym a
year ago." he said, land know his
style pretty well. He's not hard to
hit, so guess I'll bang him q couple
of times anyway
No, he hasn't seen Blunt work re-
Gently, but Poland figures he hasn't
changed much, at least not enough
to alter his style radically and
Blunt's style is right down Poland's
alley-to hear Bill tell it,
If Blunt is as easy to hit as
Poland says he is, and Poland can
sock as hard as Jack Kearns claims,
the bout will last considerably less
than the advertised IS rounds.
Considerably less, but nobody wants
to hazard a guess as to the round or
even the winner. Blunt isn't any
10-to-1 shot here, but an even
money choice.
Poland's knockout of Harry Bobo
at Baltimore in June was hailed rs
a herculean feat by the horde of
hangers-on infesting the gyms and
upped his stock on the bust 'em
bourse a good so per cent, but
Willyum is inclined to regard that
victory lightly
Finds Tough Fights Easiest.
Funny thing about those sup
posedly tough fights" he grinned,
they're always easiest for some
reason. I dunno why"
Now Blunt is heralded as q COM
bination of Harry Wills, Sam Lang
ford and Jack johnson rolled into
one stick of dynamite and his record
proves he's above average. The
fight is supposed to be doubly tough

OF Davis.
He always gave me plenty OF
trouble" says Davis, referring to
Cifers.
Regardless of how they made
out against each other, Cifers
always was the one smiling after
the Tennessee-Alabama games
of 1898. 80 and 40, for the Vols
emerged victorious over the Grim
son Tide in each.
Singularly, the former rivalries
of Cifers and Davis didn't end
with football, for each was track
captain of his alma mater in his
senior year and each threw the
discus. Here, though, the 240-

Bears 10 Get Harmon,
Slated Conference
With HaIas Hints
Will Discuss Contract
AT Session, AlI-Americo
HoIfbuck Reveals
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Aug. %. - George
Halas, owner and coach of the cham
pion Chicago Bears, who staggered
the National Pro Football League
last season with the IT. formation.
Is brewing another kettle of trouble
for his rivals.
Tom Harmon, Michigan's great
halfback who set a new all-time
scoring record in his three years in
the Big Ten, revealed yesterday he
had an appointment to talk con-
tract with Halas. Heretofore Har-
mon has shied the pro game.
Training With Au-Starx
Harmon is training with the Col
lege All-Stars who will meet the
Bears in Soldier Field THURSDAY.
Halas is busy at Delafield, Wis, tu-
torlng his Bears on how to stop
Harmon and his collegiate cohorts.
With the true peSSimism of
coach, Halas expressed doubt about
being able to sign Harmon and said
he wasn't going to talk about his
place in the Bear lineup until he
had contract tucked away in the
safe. Sidewalk coaches nominated
the Michigan ace for Bear fullback.
What Halas might do with an
other fullback is almost as big A
question as whether he can sign
Harmon. Already the Bears have
Bill OSmanski and Gary Famigletti.
And after the all-star game, Norman
Standlee, fullback for Stanfords s
Rose Bowl champions last season
and well grounded in the ct" for
nation, will join the Bears.
Radio Job Won't Interfere.
But Harmon is a driving runner,
we'll suited for quick opening PLAYS
and could add a note of deception
because he is . better than average
passer.
Harmon has signed a contract
with a Detroit radio station to
broadcast Michigan games this fall.
but he said this would not interfere
with professional football. Halas
picked up first rights to negotiate
with Harmon at the pro football
draft last winter.

with whom Cifers had personal

Trojans on the Washington
squad-Bob Hoffman, sophomore
halfback, and the Rookie ends,
AL Kruger and Jack Stonebraker.
Hoffman, though, is the only one
whom Cifers remembers dis
tinctly.
Remember him? I'll never
forget him. He almost knocked
me up into the five-dollar seats
with couple of blocks. I'm glad
I'll be playing with him and not
against him, from now on"

Playing Own Course
Calculated 10 KeIp
Him in Big Way
Mccormick Promises
To Be Formidable;
Chopmon Still OFF
BY l.. E. SHELLEY,
Associated Press aports Writer


OMAHA, Aug. 23.-The hunch is
spreading among the home folk that
this may be Omaha Johnny Good
mans year to win the National ANA
teur golf championship again.
The stocky little sharpshooter, who
won the United States Open title
In 1888 and grabbed the amateur
crown in 1887 didn't even qualify
for match play last year.
But they tell you around the Field
Club the setting is perfect for a
Goodman comeback.
Johnny will be playing his own
course, a layout perfectly adapted to
the straight wood shots and the
masterful iron play of the former
champion. He knows every foot
of course dotted with blind shots,
approaches on which the green Is
hidden and which confuse the
stranger.
Johnny Sharp i'm Practice.
Hes going to be very tough" say
the experts who have followed John
ny's career since he was graduated
from the Field Clubs caddie ranks.
Goodman's practice rounds indi-
cate the boys know what they're
talking about. He has been under
or around par all this week.
Yesterday he had a rs. the high
est scoring he's done. In his four
some was Bruce Mccormick, the Los
Angeles fireman who has given every
promise of becoming another top
challenger for the title now held by
Dick Chapman. New York socialite.
Mccormick, dropping long puts
and blasting out tremendous drives.
scored a II, one under par. He has
been three under par for his 54 holes
of practice play.
Chapman, who has been too busy
with his duties as an athletic in
structor at Maxwell Field, Alabama
10 play much golf, was erratic again
in his practice round yesterday.
Champion Not Worried.
Dick didn't appear worried, how
ever.
I've never been able TO cOncen-
trate on practice rounds he said.
The defending champions big
gest trouble here has been his wild
ness of the tee, but he and his pro-
fessional, Leo Walper, expect to iron
out that difficulty before Monday.
The home folk wouldn't like it
but several of the better known play
ers in the field believe the 1941 title
will 60 to a strictly unknown.
1T isn't the type of course that
rewards a good player" one of them
declared, "and it certainly doesn' t
handicap the scramblers."
But Ray Billows. the New Yorker
who won the Great Lakes invitation
tournament Thursday, remarked:
Whats the difference? We all
have to play 1t don't we?"
