'Phog'
I'm Squall
BY LAYTON CARVER


NEW YORK. Oct. IS QNS)-I
received the following telegram
today from Forrest c. (Phogg)
Allen, the well known loud
. mouth:
"Your statement that I have
backed down Is untrue. stated
that certain eastern writer's
have mlnimized the gambling
hazard, and your story prompts
me TO believe you are one OF
them. As far As my getting
out of the game I am In il con-
cerned I suggest you apply the
same yardstick to yourself In
your profession. What could
you know of how much basket
ball has given me?
Let us take the we'll known
loud-mouth apart from the be-
ginning. Each year for many
years this pumpkin OF no par
ticular standing and of question
able ability as a basketball coach
has managed TO get his name in
the headlines by demanding that
baskets be set higher or referees
be cut shorter or some other non
sense. He has managed through
phony publicity TO build himself
into some kind of a character in
basketball.
AND WRITER'S TOO
Having failed TO find something
better for personal aggrandize-
ment this year, he leaped on the
college basketball teams who play
in Madison Square Garden and
tossed about charges that some of
them had been bought by
gamblers.
Not certain that this would
give him the publicity due has
been in the basketball coaching
ranks, he added that the eastern
sports writers were a party 10
the sell-out.
Allen achieved his purpose OF
getting his name in the papers,
but also tactily libeled every
basketball player who has ap-
peared in Madison Square Garden
and all the writers who cover
basketball.
Taking that telegram word for
word. l repeat again that he has
backed down on the charges he
made. He hasn't proven that one
single basketball player was
bought and he daren't try 10
prove that any one writer let
alone all of them had a part in
the scheme.
LET HIM GO.
also would like 10 add again
that ne should get out OF basket
ball. When he, coach, has so
little judgment as 10 SIT back IN
Lawrence, Kan, and charge that
a bunch OF college gents are sell
ine out he makes himself out to
be unfit company for the col
legians he associates with. Per-
haps some OF the Broadway
gamblers did get to college basket
ball players.
| Will be the last 10 naIvely in
sist upon the integrity OF any
athlete or group Of athletes, but
! will also be the last 10 charge
them with selling out unless ! can
prove II.
Why doesn't Allen prove II. in
asmuch as he has made the
charge?

The lone political hand which
Russia has been playing lately

by Judge Noe

Two sentences for violation Of
probation were handed down

ton II. Noe, while one l8-year-
old youth is in the county Jail
today awaiting sentence on a
forgery count.

General Grant trailer camp, Van
Dyke, was given from two and
one-half to five years with a

mendation of three years, Don

juvenile record. Labadie, once
before found guilty of larceny,
for which he was discharged
from the State Troops, recently
tired to pass forged check for
$40 in local tavern.

Jap Volcano Bombing
Proposed by Professor

HAMILTON, N. Y, March %
The present eruption of Mt.
Vesuvius in Italy prompted to-

by Colgate University geology
professor that japanese vol

measure.
Whether the tremendous
pounding the earth has received

of Mt. Vesuvius has had any
thing to do with the present
eruption is highly problematical

bility," DR.. Harold O. Whitnall

Police Union

Detroit Rejects
Clio Proposal

DETROIT, March % - (P) -
Police Commissioner John F.
Ballenger's rejection of police
utilization with unions appeared
today to have stalemated at least
temporarily proposed plans of
the State, County and Munich
pal Workers of America (CIO)
to organize the Detroit Police
Department.
AT a conference yesterday
with SCMWA leaders, Ballenger
emphasized his rejection with a
warning that any police officer
affiliating with union would
be considered guilty of violating
his oath of office and would be
brought before the police trial
board with view to dismissal.
Ballenger's conference with
Robert Weinstein, state presi-
dent of the union, and Mort
Furay, state secretary-treasurer,
followed recent reports that the
C1O was attempting to organize
Detroit police.
Furay asked Ballenger, Sup
pose l brought in the signatures
of 1000 policemen on member
ship cards. Would you fire
them"
Il don't believe you have any
such membership" the commits
sioner replied.

In school life, the greatest
achievement, he recalled, was to

Reid admitted he seldom, il ever,
attained).
The speaker described the in
herent gang spirit" in young
boys OF all generations, and their
deep urge to play and enjoy bois-
ferrous recreation. He said boys
must be provided with an out
let for their boundless energy,
and their minds, which will al
ways be busily occupied, should
be conferred on good, rather than
evil.
LOVE OF THRILLS
Temptations for youth which
appeal to their love for excite
ment, are greater than ever be-
FORE" Mr.. Justice Reid said.
There are many more oppor-
tunities today for boys to get
into mischief, and that is why
the cub and boy scout move
mcnts arc being stressed as out
lets for youthful enthusiasm. To
support such a plan is one of the
most tremendously important
things we can ever do"
He described how inherent
evil impulses in the animal king
dom can be trained out" by
experts, citing the circus as an
example. Similarly, he said, the
destructive forces in human ma
ture can be eliminated and re-
strained. In conclusion, Mr.. JUS
tice Reid made a strong plea to
parents to maintain a close spirit
of friendship and guidance be-
tween themselves and their chill
dren as the most certain way Of
eliminating juvenile delin-
quency.
The Cub movement - which
cements the relationship be-
tween parents and boys was
described by Verkler at the
meeting, and will be covered
more fully in a subsequent ar
ticle on the meeting.

Plan Effective

CLINTON, Iowa, March %
II you go to hospital after the
war, you may not only boast
about your operation-but about
the setting up exercises you took
after it was over.
The possibility that the
Army's program of 'recondition-
ing" hospitalized men with ex-
tensive physical exercise to cut
down hospital stays may be car
ried over into civilian hospital
practise on a wide scale after the
war was suggested today by
Brigadier General Charles c.
Hillman Of the surgeon general
staff.
In an interview at the close of
a conference held at Schick Cen
eral hospital to appraise results
of the recently-inaugurated pro-
gram, Hillman said:
Thousands of civilian doc
tors now in the Army will be so
impressed by the reconditioning
program that it will probably
be more commonly practised in
civilian life after the war"
He said that while the Army's
program still was in its infancy,
and that, up to now, lack of
sufficient personnel had slowed
its progress, preliminary evil
dence justifies this outlook:
1--WE will restore more men to
duty; we will restore them at
an earlier date with a less aver
age number Of hospital days; and
when they get back to duty, they
will be much better able to carry
on"

Of good character among chill
dren is the most important re-
sponsibility of adults, Mr.. JUS
tice Neil E. Reid, of the State
Supreme Court, this week made
strong plea to Mount Clemens
teachers and parents to back the
movement to establish Cub
Packs for boys.
The veteran jurlst spoke be-
fore parents of Donaldson, Lin
coin and Wilson schools and
Boy Scout officials, at Macomb
School auditorium Tuesday eve
ming. Preliminary plans were
discussed by the group for estab-
lishment of Cub Packs which
provide home-centered training
for boys between the ages OF
nine and IL years.
OUTLINE PROGRAM
Guy H. Verkler, president OF
Macomb district scouts, was
chairman of the meeting, and
Archie Schingkeck, scout field
executive, described the me-
chanics of the clubbing move
ment, and demonstrated its pro-
gram equipment. Unlike the
scout movement, which tends Ia
encourage a youth to expand his
individuality in a public man
ner, the clubbing project restricts
the younger boy to home-di-
rected program, in which COM
radeship between parents (espe-
.cially fathers) and the boy is
paramount.
Mr.. Justice Reid, VINO has
been identified with scouting
work for many years, described
the limitations of expression
which restricted his own youth
on a Macomb County farm.
AS boy of nine or ten years,
he said, his biggest release from
the ordinary things of life came
about this time of the year, when
his mother finally weakened to
successive arguments and agreed
that the weather was warm
enough for him to 90 barefoot

The SNUG and satisfied look
worn by City Treasurer George
A. bankers at last nights City
Commission meeting needed ex-
PLANTATION, which was forthcom-
ing when Mayor Donald r..
Westendorf called upon him to
report the state of the ex-
chequer.
George reported:
1.-THE collection of personal
taxes for 1913 might be likened
unto Ivory soaps advertised pur-
ity-99.97 per cent collected.
The missing three-hundredths of
one per cent is S14.05 and the
man who owes it is in Florida.
I'll get him when he comes back.
1.-THE general real estate tax
has been collected 81 per cent"
Commissioners first gasped
and then applauded at this high
est tax collection in years. There
have been times when real
estate taxes were 40 per cent de-
linquent, and no one paid the
personal tax.
Broken down, bankers fig
ures reveal that the total city
tax spread was S435, 1922, of
which S386, 1885 was collected.
Of the total amount, $685.
1885 was spread in real estate
taxes, and $340,l23,73, or 90 per
cent, collected.
The personal tax sprea d
amounted to $46,873.67, of
which bankers collected S46,-

that the $14.05 will be in the
treasury as soon as a certain
gentleman returns from Flor

Clare Hoffman
Under Attack
PM Cites Back Door
Blow at Freedom

NEW YORK, Mar. 23-tP)-
Rep. Clare Hoffman (R-Mich)
was charged by the newspaper
PM, through its managing editor
John Lewis, with seeking to de-
stroy freedom of speech by a
back door attack on the sponsors
of radio commentators he does
not like"
Asking in a House speech yes
terday whether Andrew Jergens,
Cincinnati toilet article manu-
facturer, ever had in his employ
persons charged with or convict
ed of "disloyalty," Hoffman sug-
gested that radio commentator
Walter Winchell, Jergens or PM
answer his query. Jergens is the
radio sponsor of Winchell.
Hoffman asked if it were mot
true that at least one of Jergens'
confidential employees did either
give aid to or conSpire with some
or all of the eight saboteurs who
were executed"
Il presume, Lewis declared,
Congressman Hoffman address
ed his question at PM because
we have been fighting in support
of Walter Winchell's right to ex-
ercise freedom of speech on the
radio.
Il don't know anything about
any of the employees of Mr.. Jer-
gems except that Winchell told on
his radio program a year or so
ago how a housekeeper en-
ployed by Mr.. Jergens had been
arrested by the FBI."
Lewis declared that Hoffman's
Interest is not in prosecuting
enemy aliens, but in destroying
the freedom of speech by driv-
ing Winchell off the air."
Lewis added that Hoffman
failed IN an attempt to silence
the press, including PM, in its
attacks on native Fascism and
himself two years ago. He tried
unsuccessfully to create a Dies
committee to investigate the
press. Now he is seeking to de-
stroy freedom Of speech by a
back-door attack on the spon-
Sors Of radio commentators he
does not like"
He termed Hoffman'S speeches
"a wholesale item of propa-
ganda" and said they had been
distributed by many of the 33
members Of the Fascist conspir-
acy now awaiting trial on gov
eminent charges"

er" aid in handling the flourish
ing project.
MODEST LEADER
His request for publicity TO
keep the good work going was
coupled with a sincere provi-
Sion-"Please leave me out of
it,. But TO explain the full story,
such an omission is impossible.
When the American Legion in
1913 strongly advocated expan-
sion of Youth Guidance g. Aid
programs by local veterans
posts, Commander jenkins alone
started the ball rolling locally.
Through the cooperation of
Rev. George A. Merifield, of
Grace Church, he obtained en-
largement of the scope of the
Knights of Sir Galahad youth
group, which was meeting at
the parish house each Wednes-
day night. He invited all boys
under 13 whether Galahad
members or noD to join the
weekly program of games and
physical education. The re-
Spouse was immediate, and soon
jenkins, the onc-man sponsor,
director, instructor and leader
had his hands full.
Through personal application,
he sold public school auth
critics on the plan of allowing
him to teach swimming on Tues
day evenings, and, shouldering
second nights work each
week, Jenkins launched the
Tuesday swimming class last
December. The hours were set
from to 9 p. m.
The classes proved SO popular
that attendance climbed until it
reached total of lat boys at
last Tuesday nights class.
At that stage, the one-man
boys champion threw up his
hands:
Did you ever try TO handle
147 healthy boys around a
swimming pool alone?" he ask
ed the sympathetic reporter
whose limit has been handling
two boys at home.
LOUD But HAPPY
You can't even hear your
own voice, when that bunch OF
lads get together. jenkins
pointed out.
It's not the noise, however,
but the fact that a mans capac-
ity for giving swimming instruc-
ton and supervision is limited.
His first announced move is
to split the giant class into two
groups, and starting next Tues
day boys up to ID, inclusive, will
swim from 7 to 8 p. m, and
those of IA and more, from 8 to
9 p. m. He requests the older
group not TO show up (pleaseD
until just before 8 o'clock.
Furthermore. Jenkins urgent
ly requests qualified young men,
or older men, in the community,
to help him with the swimming
class.

for one man, even a man like
