Carlberg last night tossed a chal-
lenge at Henson, long the ace OF
Metropolitan Washington pitchers,
in the form of an 81 per cent game
of which Hal Ronning. Washington,
was the 50-7 victim. For the nights
competition the District champion
outpitched his nationally-ranked
rival in ringer percentage with u
against II.
With Henson, Carlberg and Lacey
to meet each other tonight the battle
for the Metropolitan title easily may
be a tie.
If one game decided champion
ship, an unheralded fipper, Tex
Kruger of Washington, would own
two. OF his three victims one is
Northern Virginia Champion Howery
and another the habitually- winning
Fleshma1a, sr.

The latter, trying valiantly to hold
the Southern Maryland title despite
arthritis in his pitching hand, last
night won from Baranowski, 50-47
after being down 6-33. He shot
close to 80 per cent ringers in the
last "a shoes.
Baranowski and 1t. Portt, with
Champ Howery wobbling on the
Northern Virginia throne, clashed
for what may have been the seat
and the Baron won, 50-48. The air

irons bounding back from clean hits
This was true, too. in game, one
of the best of the everring, he lost to
Carlberg, 1880.
In what may have been the de-
sired skirmish of the Maryland di-
vision, Lacey defeated Fleshman, ST.
50-37. The defending champ still
has to meet his son and, with the
title possibly at stake, tournament
followers are wondering how te
figure the human equation. Little
Lee has lost only one game by 8
wide margin and that to Henson.

They have learned to take care OF

GL0RIFYING
YOURSELF
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Service Staff Writer

The summer is just about over
it's time to take stock of figure
facts. On the whole, you're in pret-
tv good form. You've swum, played
tennis and golf, bicycled, hiked,
ridden. There's no excess pound
age, curves are just right, flesh Is
firm. muscles and joints supple.
Now to keep them that way.
Tendency is to let down on active
sports once the play season is over,
and you are back into the routine
of workaday living, particularly SO
now that every spare minute you
have you will be devoting to some
sort of war or defense activity.
Here are three exercises that
will help to keep muscles supple
and firm and won't take too much
of your tipe either:
Lie flat on the floor; cross arms
over chest. Now, keeping shoulders
flat, raise both legs, ankles close
together, until they are perpendi-
cular to your body. Lower. Twenty
times is about right. This exercise
should be done very slowly and
should be one of your standbys,
because it is designed to keep
stomach muscles youthfully firm
and legs Timber.
Second routine calls for stand
ing barefooted with hands stretch
ed forward, touching lightly the
back of the chair Check your pos
ture It should remain perfect dur
ing the entire exercise. Lift right
leg backward, swing it slowly out
to right as far as you can; swing
back to position. Repeat with left
leg. swinging backward to left OF
course. Twenty times is good for
this also.

HERE'S A LITTLE
ABOUT INITIATION

Perhaps one reason why the American
people have not worried enough about
initiation is because they have an eXag-
gerated notion what it is.
The spectacular way to present the
idea is by citing Germany's experience,
eliminating in 1928, when in December
it would have taken l,20O,400, 100000
marks to buy what one mark-23.S cents
bought in 1918.
Translated into American money, that
would be equivalent to having to pay
S132. .O44, 100000 Zone hundred thirty-two
billions forty-four millions OF dollars)
for the loaf of bakers bread that costs
II cents today.
We all know that there is not going
to be such initiation as that in the United
States We are convinced that there will
not even be initiation such that bread will
cost $1,000 loaf, or stamp to mail
a letter $3.50, which is about where Ger
many was in July of 1922, before her
notorious initiation really got its second
wind and started running.
Assured that such fears are silly, we
dismiss warnings as the academic night
mares of overWorked economists, ana
refuse to be worried.
A bird in the hand, We love to say, IS
worth two in the bush. Let's eat, drink
and be merry, and let tomorrow take
care of itself.
Unfortunately, initiation does not have
to get to the one trillion, two hundred
billion stage in order to do incalculable
harm At the two-to-one stage it can
work hardship. At the four-to-one 1t
can wipe out the savings of provident
lifetime At eight -to-one it could ruin
the American economy and put this ma
ton through the wringer Of effective
bankruptcy.
Initiation may sound academic, but
really it isn't. Initiation means merely
that money has lost some of its value.
1t won't buy as much, in the way OF use
full goods, as it did or should.
Initiation means that the value of mon
ey is going down. We buy enough insur-
ance and put enough in the bank to fin
ance old age Money loses value. Then
we can't live on our savings.
We buy gilt-edged bonds, and save for
a home of our own. When we sell the
bonds, we collect their face value But
they will pay for only half of house,
if money has lost half of its value.
That is all initiation is. The German
fiasco merely illustrates how far infla-
tion can go. We're not safe, merely be-
cause we know initiation never will go as
far in this country.

PEOPLE LEARN HOW MUCH
FAMILY MEANS

And they have discovered that
there is fun to be had in ones
own home and with ones own
family and neighbors. 1t isn't nee
essary to drive for miles to have
fun.and interesting people don't
always live on the other side OF
town.
They have learned that there is
real satisfaction in working with
others toward a common unselfish
goal.
They have learned how much
their families really mean to them
now that there have been separ
ations and there is constantly the
fear of separation.
They have learned that as indi-
viduals and as a nation they must
be strong.
And they have started being
neighborly in the old fashioned
sense-sharing with each other.

The American best qualified to speak
