BY VERA BROWN

"Pm no genius. L just read

That is how Arthur Niva, 81
year-old factory worker, says he
passed student police examinations
at a genius rating-for his brother
in-law who wanted TO be a police
man.
The brother IN law. George
Stocks, 6-footer. and for six years
a trustworthy employe of the DSR,
who lives with Niva at $500 Ep-
worth boulevard, offers the follow
ing explanation of his brother-in-

both of them in difficulties;

He said that he did not believe
Standard Oil had any intention of
aiding the Germans to become self
sufficient In the manufacture of
aviation gasoline, but added that a
large contribution had been made
to Germanys productive success.
Senator Truman said that, be-
cause Of the delay in getting the
synthetic rubber program started,
there was little hope that tires could
be produced with it for ordinary
civilian uses until early in 1945. He
said Standard would be called upon
to produce 100000 out OF 100000
tons in the current program just
getting started, with the remainder
being manufactured by United

Senator Truman said yesterday he
had no doubt that the Nazis had
made prompt use of the American
discovered process which Mr.. Ar
mold said Standard, its discoverer,
had turned over to I. G. Farben be-
fore America entered the war. BY
this method, the committe was told,
synthetic rubber which was better
and cheaper than the Germans was
made from natural gasoline.
Supplementing previous testimony
on the relations between Standard
and I. c. Farben. Mr.. Arnold sub
mitted Standard correspondence

Reasons for Cooperating.
Another example, he said, "of
the ambiguous position in which
these cartel arrangements placed
such companies as Standard is in

deciding to cooperate with the
German government in the con-
struction of facilities for aviation

Mr.. Arnold then quoted letter

"the adverse effects on the morale
of the German subsidiary II the

Walter Camp and Fudge

Years ago Walter Camp told me
an interesting experience he had
had with Fudge Heffelfnger, foot
ball star who lasted over 30 years.
"Pudge was so good" Camp said,
"that 1 was afraid he would be an
other know-it-all. In place of that
he kept coming to me for more adj
vice on guard play. I showed him
three new variations. Later on he
came back and told me he had
learned four new angles. One of
these was the possibility of the run
ming guard. How many people know
that Fudge Heffelfinger had worked
out and developed the correct meth
cd of the running guard around 1889
or 1902"
ALI I know is that as late as 1921
or 1922 Heffelfnger, then SO years
old, kept telling Bo McMillin, then
%, to speed up his start and give
him chance to lead that interfer-
ence. Ask Bo.

human weakness. Too many think
they know enough when no one
knows much. Especially in these
days no one knows nearly enough.
"What fine thing it would be to
have many more people adopting
Carl HubbelPs method Of still trying
to learn after so many years at
the top"
The Meager Minority
This happens to be 100 per cent
true. We'll take the argument back
to sport.
Those who happen to lack GER
tain qualifications in the way of skill
or knack, get discouraged too cas-
lily and give up.
They either lack the determina-
ton to keep trying or they fail to
understand how much they might
learn from others that would carry
them out of the rut.
Many of those who happen to be
rugged out with speed or skill or
the winning knack take it for grant
ed they are approaching the super
man class and so need no further
instruction or improvement.
There never was human being
who knew it all, or anything even
approaching the ultimate.
You'll find that Cobb and Tilden
were still experimenting, studving,
working on new angles after more
than twenty years of championship
competition.
We could also name number of
others who stopped learning quickly
and showed no particular improve
ment in later years.
They had nothing to learn from
coaches or trainers.
Old timers were jokes. They al
ready had the answers.
