sought shelter for the night in a
large sheet-iron shack from the
chimney of which he had observed
smoke ascending. The owner re-
ceived him kindly, but apologized
for the inadequacy of his facilities OF
entertainment.
Entering the shack, however, the
philatelic stranger was surprised to
find its interior walls lined with
books, the windows filled with potted
plants, a large fireplace ablaze and
a good meal ready for serving. His
host studied him for a moment,
then exclaimed: Il know you!"
How could that be?" asked the
tourist. I'm sure we never have
met before"
But I have seen your photograph
somewhere. You collect stamps,
don't you?"
"Yes, of course, but -"
The host laughed Like to like is
natures law" He was a retired
physician living in "the wilderness"
with his hobbies-books, pictures,
flowers, music, stamps and philatelic
magazines.
John E. Lamiell, 10. Deputy Second
Assistant Postmaster General since
last October, died at Canton, Ohio,
Wednesday. He was veteran of the
postal service and a wholesale ac-
cumulator of stamps. His holdings
are understood to have included the
International Postal Union speci-
mems sent to Haiti during many
years and approximately 100 SOU

he still possessed his stock" at the

not to sell until he retired, but he

: The Old Dominion Kennel Club
held its first fall meeting recently
and adopted q new constitution
which had been prepared In COM
mittee meetings during the summer
The most important change made
was that which altered the date
Of the annual meeting and election
of officers from January to two
meetings after the annual, licensed
show. Since the annual show has
been held in April for the past few
years, this means elections will be
held in June.
The chairman of the Bench Show
Committee, which is often the most
important post in a kennel club,
will also be elected at that time,
instead of being appointed by the
president as formerly. A date has
been applied for at the American
Kennel Club and it seems likely that
this region will have its two
licensed shows next year.
Twenty-four gold medals have

In place of its second October
meeting the Washington Radio Club
held its fall "Hamfest" at the home
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar w. B. Reed,
ST., parents Of the club president. In
/ spite Of the fact that the amateur
operators are not allowed on the air
during the war this club still has a
large membership and the party
was well attended.
Among the highlights OF the
evening were brief talks by Thomas
F. McNulty, Perry Wightman and
Miss Elizabeth M. Zandonint on the
War Emergency Radio Network. Mr..
McNulty Is director of War Emer-
gency Radio Service for the State OF
Maryland and Mr.. Wightman is
chief of the service in Prince Georges
County. Miss Zandonini has just
been made chief assistant OF the
service for the District of Columbia
with her official title not yet defined.
ORGANIZATION of this radio network
is well advanced in Maryland, but
is Just getting under way IN the
District, after many delays. Work
in both areas and in nearby Virginia
will be closely co-ordinated. Miss
Zandonini asked for volunteers to
assist on all the phases OF setting up
and operating the District OF Coium-
bia network. If you are interested
in this sort of civilian defense
activities call Miss Zandonlnl at
Emerson 7400.
The w. R. c. has had a particularly
heavy loss of members since the
start of the war because this hobby
fits its followers so we'll for special
duties in both the armed forces and
essential industries. Thus many
of its members have converted
their avocations to vocations. Un-
fortunately, this has left the club
handicapped in its efforts to aid the
Emergency Radio Service, and add1-
tional helpers are badly needed.
Main event OF the party was a
talk by j. Harold Shultz, AC4JS, on
his experiences as an amateur radio
operator in the Orient. Mr.. Shultz
went to China as a missionary In
1929 he was working in Tibet, and
while there he became interested in
amateur radio. He acquired a hand
book on the subject and after dill
gent study gained his ham" license.
Every bit of material he used not

Any lead other than the ten Of
hearts would have set the contract.
North chided his partner for the
lead and in return was berated for
having made q psychic bid which
did not deceive his opponents but
only fooled his partner. The slam
bid was made at several other tables
and was doubled at one, but Mr..
Buckley was the only player to re-
double, and hence his score was the
highest recorded.

This training, in almost any sport,
will help develop stamina, speed, a

For hand exercises use a small

In the way Of competitive games
there are basketball, baseball, touch

In Example

l got an eyeful of this poor con-
dition while walking around with
Lieut.. Jack Dempsey of the coast
guard The coastguardsmen were
volunteers. There were several thou
sand from all over the map. They
were keen, dead game, willing. But
most of them had known little phys
ical training before they came to
camp. I'd say about four out of
FIVE.
As Jack pointed out: They'll
tacI.-e buii. Jg. But many of them
dent know their left hand from their
right hand when they first come
here, and they have a hard time
Ginning themselves just once.
II never saw a more willing
bunch, though. They just never had
chance to learn. It's a shame
we've had an athletic system that
developed comparatively few
stars, instead of giving every kid a
chance. 1t means a lot in more
ways than one. and l don't mean on
the physical side alone, which. of
course, is important. There's also
the mental side, which means self
confidence.
"a young fellow who can handle
himself also believes in himself"
the ex-champ went on. IF he can
fight little, wrestle little, swim
or play some game fairly well, his
head is up. But when he knows he
is no good at any game, it is only
natural that he has no confidence
in himself"
