 PLENTIFUL AT
 SHR|NERS TEST
Eastern Group, Coached By Kerr and Bierman 8
 to 5 FavOrites
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent)

New Orleans, Jan. 3.-(UP)-The American football circus, which is the annual East-West Shrine game, is being staged in the south land today for the first ime since its Inauguration in San Francisco in 1925.
 Transplanted to the Sugar Bowl because of war conditions, the galaxy of college senior football stars from coast to coast is expected to draw & crowd of 45,0O0 for this 17th Shrine classic, the profits of which will be evenly divided between Shriners' Crippled Children's hos pitals in San Francisco and Shreve- port, La.
 East 6 to 5
 Following the pattern of most former games, the East has more All-Americans and big names and hence is favored to win. This sit- uation has prevailed almost every year before the kickoff. But in 16 previous battles the West has won 10 times and the East five with one tie. Betting odds favor the East at 8-5.
 Players on the eastern club in- clude Ali Bauman, Northwestern's smashing tackle; Bill De Correvont, Northwestern's great running back; Bill Dudley, virginia's Au-America back; Endicott Peabody, Harvard,s crashing guard; Bob Westfall, Michigan's spinning fullback, and Urban Odson, Minnesota's giant tackle.
 The West has its share of stellar players but they can't match the regulations of the eastern gang. Its leading lights include Frankie AL bert, Stanford's left-handed, pass ing quarterback; Bob Reinhard, California versatile tackle, who is also an outstanding punter, and two stars of the Texas L,onghorns, Mal- colm Kutner, an end, and Chal Daniel, guard.
 Coaches
 The East is coached by Andy Kerr of Colgate and Bernie Bierman of Minnesota, and the West by Babe Hollingbery of Washington State and Biff Jones of Nebraska. ,..

June Construction
In Eastern States
Hits AN-Time Peak
$1.190, ,264, 900 Contracts
Awarded 81 Pet. Above
August, 194l, Figures

Construction in the Eastern
States reached an all-time high
last month, according to reports
received by the F. w. Dodge Corp.
In most building categories, 4 de-
cided upward trend was recorded.
Building and engineering contracts
awarded last month In 81 Eastern
States amounted to $1,190, ,264 900,
nearly 81 per cent more than the
dollar volume Of = comparable
month last year, August, when $780,
223,000 was the peak.
Comparison of these two record
months indicate roughly the impact
of the war on the construction pro-
gram: Industrial building contracts
last month were double the dollar
volume Of last August; heavy
engineering construction nearly
doubled; non-residential building,
other than commercial and indus
trial work, increased three-fold.
On the other hand, commercial
building contracts last month were
a third less in dollar volume than
in August Of last year, and resi-
dental building was down 20 per
cent. Last months total was
little more than double that Of June,
1941.
The June, 1912, contract volume
brought the total for the first half
Of the year up to $3,723, ,725 900,
again a record breaking figure. No
previous year produced 50 large a
contract total in the first six months
The increase over the first half Of
1941 was 46 per cent.
More detailed comparisons of the
first half of 1942 with the first half
of 194l are as follows: Industrial
buildings, up 86 per cent; CONNER
cial buildings, down 13 per cent; all
other non-residential buildings Gin

military purposes. up 102 per cent;

Special Dispat tch to The Star.
CULPEPER, Va, July 18.-Salu-
bria. Cuipeper county estate
known in Co. onial days as the home
of Lady Spctswood and in modern
days as the birthplace and boyhood
home OF Rear Admiral Cary T. Gray
son. former head Of the American
Red Cross and physician to Presi-
dents, mas keen purchased by George
L. Hariicon of New York from the
owner, Miss Maria Julia Grayson, a
niece Of Admiral Grayson.
The mansion house is OF brick
with massive walls several feet thick
and is believed to be the oldest brick
residence in the county. Panels and
hidden closets make the house un-
usual. The stairway winding up
from the spacious center hall is
closed, and the legend is that it was
built in this manner so that it could
be barricaded in case hostile Indians
gained entrsnce to the lower floor.
Indians were still roaming Culpeper
fields and forests when the house
was built IN 1742.
The paneing in the drawing room
Is especially fine and has attracted
the attention Of museums, and the
woodwork throughout the house is
unusual. There are about 300 acres
in the estate.

or iron; wood screws, nails or hooks
in wood, tile. brick, plaster, marble,
concrete, metal and all types of
wallboard.
1t is simple to use. Just make a
hole N the wall Then take a por-
ton of the powder between thumb
and index finger. Roll with fingers
into a pointed form and moisten
slightly with water. Once water
touches it, you have plastic plug.
Insert this plug into the wall so
that it fills the hole. Then affix nail,
screw or whatever with the proper
tool. The pressure of the nail forces
the plastic into the sides of the
hole to form a wonderful anchor.
Then hang anything you want, and
you will not have to worry ever
about it falling down and breaking.

It will dry in an hour or two, in a
warm, dry place.
After the rug has become dusty
from use, wash it with damp cloth.
The dirt will come out and the color
will reappear, as bright and fresh
as ever.
The water repellent quality of the
paint has actually made a new sur
face for the rug and gives 1t prop
erty Of instability which it did not
possess when new.
Finally, in addition to its other
practical features, the rug paint
contains mildew-killing agent.
This. means that should your rug be
exposed to dampness, it will be pre-
served from mildew as we'll. Quite a
worthwhile extra dividend, when
holding on to what you have is a
full-time activity!

PAINT ON YOUR PRESERvA

At last there is a paint that will
make your old faded summer rug
look like new! Not only that, but
1t acts as preservative, prolonging
the life of the fibers for many years.
The new paint doesn't stiffen,
doesn't crack, is color fast and water
repellant. Applied to grass and fiber
rugs, it fulfills the 3-point program
for all patriotic householders-"Make
it do. Make it last. Make it smart" :"
If you have a sturdy but faded
fiber, grass or sisal rug, lay it out on
the floor with newspapers placed not
only around the edge but under
meath as we'll, to catch any drops of
paint that may come through. Select
a color that is deeper in tone than
your rug, since dark over light is
always a good rule in repainting or
redyeing
There are 10 colors to choose from.

means use it, as the paint is of a
consistency to be sprayed as we'll as

way much more quickly.

Expert Says Homes
OF Future Must Be
Better and Cheaper
Architect Declares
Prefubricution Can
Give Variety

Anticipation of the future is the
key to adequate planning. The
house that is just ahead of us must
be designed in response to the new
and changing world in which we
are living 1t must be better
planned, better built, more appeal
ing in appearance, and at the same
time it must cost less.
A. Lawrence Kocher, noted archi-
tect at Black Mountain College, Sc
stated in pamphlet recently pub
lished by Revere Copper & Brass
Inc. which looks forward to mass
construction of prefabricated homes
after the war.
Delivery by Units.
The war is helping to show us
how this can be done. 1t is teaching
us the need for economy of labor,
speed of production, reduction of
transportation and above all, the
advantages of building in quantities
with the help of scientific manage
ment. Instead of delivery of lumber.
brick, cement, roofing, pipe and
fixtures to the building site, fol-
lowed by ng-drawn- out handicraft
methods, materials will be increas-
ingly fabricated as parts or units,
finished in the factory, delivered to
the site, and erected In few hours
time,
LoW-cost houses will be produced
when a construction scheme is de-
veloped for maximum elimination
of costly methods and for the re-
duction of materials-bulk to a safe
minimum. Factory production meth
ods must be used, and light weight
parts of the house will be delivered
economically by truck.
Having pioneered and worked for
IL years on the idea of low-cost
houses for millions of Americans,
have come to believe that mere
cheapness can never make a house
acceptable to the public. Such box
like structures would be a drug on
the building market. Nor could they
attempt to meet the real living needs
OF American people" he declared.
Must Be Attractive.
The house that is wanted and
needed must have eye appeal in
addition to reasonable cost. 1t must
open new vistas to improved living.
to more comfort, to new and sur
prising attractiveness. Inside, the
house should be limited only by gen.
erous opening windows that admit
ample light and permit restful out
look, and by doors that move aside
to enlarge the living area of the
house so as to include the terrace
and garden.
The curse of monotony has been
the dread of many who think of
building or buying a house. But
the form of mass produced house
need not have the rigidity of mold. |
The form can vary with the require |
ments, with the size of the family
to be accommodated, with the varia-
ton in the use and the diversity of
arrangement of the parts of the |
house, Mr.. Kocher added.
The dull monotony of row upon
row Of similar shaped dwellings is
avoided by the adoption of a few
house types placed, not in straight
line rows, but with intermediate |
setbacks from the property line and
with groupings in accordance with |
developed and Handicapped COM
munity plan, he said.
