is timely now. The fisherman FORUM
ate enough to already have his new,
modern boat wants to know just how
to preserve its present high quality.
The man who has yet to buy his,
realizes there is a good chance the
particular storage conditions he has
available may be factor OF I'M
portance to consider as he decides
which of the many new types of
construction he wants.
Yes, there are boats, many OF
them, right out in the desert today.
Thousands of artificial lakes behind
irrigation dams, now dot areas COM
pletely dry only few years back.
Boats are used in all sorts Of places
and under all sorts of conditions
they never were before: they are Of
diversified types of construction,
many brand-new; and inevitably, the
rules Of storage have become more
complex.
Any boat will last longer If not
abused. A good boat, and modern
boats are the best ever built, de-
serves good treatment. A man who
in use can claim at least he is get
subjects his boat to wear and tear
ting something for his money; man
who let's a good boat wear, just lying
around any old place on land, can
hardly deny charges Of carelessness
or ignorance, even though the effects
of the wear may not be noticeable
for a long time.
The position of the boat in storage
can be important. Indoors, in
crowded quarters, there may be a
temptation to "cramp" the boat in
some way-to rest it on its side, per-
haps-a harmless enough way OF do
inc with some boats, but damaging
to others, like the round-bottom
rowboat. AS only one spot on the
side of the latter can ordinarily
touch the floor at one time. Right
side up. resting along its keel, is
usually the best position for this type
boat. Be sure the boat is given SUI
ficient support to avoid strain at
any one point. -

; REVIEW


The weatherman proved an able
ally for the greater part of the foot
ball games over the state, during the
week end. A little on the frosty
side late Saturday evening, the en-
thusiasm of the football fans did
fairly good job of counteracting
the increasing GOODNESS Of the atmos-
phere.
Wake Forest 10; Clemson College Z
Power deception and the breaks
paid off for Wake Forest as the
Deamon Deacons, on their own field,
swept over a luck-less Clemson COL
lege, 10 to z in Southern conference
game. Most Of the second half was
played in rain so heavy that at times
it was hard to distinguish indenty
Of the players and both teams re-
sorted to line plays and puntlng.
Catawba College as; Wofford Col. o.
A heavy, pwoerful and experienced
tribe of Catawba Indians overWhelm-
ed the hapless Wofford Terriers 46-o.
The Wofford boys were outclassed IN
everything except competitive spirit
which they maintained despite the
fact that it was their third straight
loss this season.
Duke University FL; Navy 6.
Duke combined tightening speed
raw power and opportunlsm tc
fashion a 21-O victory over an inept
NAVY team, sustaining Coach Wallace
Wade's record of never having a
Wade-coached team to lose three
straight games. The game was the
first Duke victory over Navy since
1880 and the first Duke triumph OF
the 1916 season.
n. C. State College Is; Davidson o.
North Carolina States Wolfpack,
held to only one touchdown in the
first three quarters by the young
sters of Davidson, exploded in the
final period to win themselves a
ball game $500 in a Southern con-
ference game Saturday night. State
the dark horse of the conference still
remains in the thinning ranks OF
the undefeated, united.

Opposition 10 Street
AT GdIIinger Rejected

Removal of the extension Of
Massachusetts, avenue Sc. through
the grounds of Gallinger Hospital
from the Highway Departments
master plan appeared unlikely last
night. The extension of the street
through the hospital grounds has
been opposed by the Health De-
partment.
Engineer Commissioner Gordon r.
Young told reporters the co-ordi-
mating committe of Federal and
District planning officials had re-
jected the Health Departments
stand.
The Commissioners themselves as
yet have taken no action on the
committee recommendation or the
health department proposal, it was
said, but Brig. Gen. Young said he
agreed with the committee.
The strip in question runs through
Gallinger Hospital grounds and
would connect with a proposed
bridge across the Anacostia river.
Two weeks ago the Health De-
partment urged that the plan be
taken of the highway map on the
ground that the extension would
destroy a very valuable hospital
property" as well as interfere with
hospital expansion.

Retailers Shy Of Revealing
Thanksgiving Turkey Cost

The price of turkeys for Thanks
giving Day dinners was closely
guarded secret" yesterday as re-
tailers declined to quote prices be-
fore announcements In tomorrow's
newspaper advertisements.
But secret or not, it was pretty
safe bet that your Thanksgiving
bird will cost more than last year.
The chain store price for a 16-
FOUNDER a year ago was 40 cents q
pound. Last week the price was
from 63 to IS cents a pound.
One chain store official explained
that the Washington price was
based on the average price in the
New York market. For the past
few days, young, lightweight birds
have been quoted from 54 to 81
cents q pound wholesale.

Living Costs Here Rise
1.6 Pei. in Month

Led by an increase in food prices,
the cost of living for moderate
income families in Washington rose
1.6 per cent between mid-September
and mid-October, the Bureau Of
Labor Statistics reported yesterday.
The bureau said that on the latter
date the consumer price index was
1873 per cent of the 1935-1939 av-
erage, 14.2 per cent above q year
ago and 47.4 per cent higher than
In January, 1941.
Since August Is, 1899 the family
food bill has risen 81 8 per cent,
clothing 82.1 per cen and house
furnishings GAL per cent, The Labor
Department agency reported.
The food cost rise in the last two
months was estimated at 3.4 per
cent, ted by 13 per cent rise in
the cost of butter and % per cent
for sugar.
The October Is date was just one
day after President Truman's an
nouncement ending meat price con-
trols. Accordingly, the index does
not take into account price changes
in meat following decontrol.
The agency said that because of
the severe shortage of meat between
September Is and October Is at
was impossible in mid October to
obtain sufhcient quotations to COM
pute reliable measure Of change

ing Washington motorists on their
reactions to familiar driving prob
lens.
The fifth question in the series
was:
How do you 60 about parking
your car in small space?"
Among replies received by wan
dering reporter were these: #
Mrs. Willie williams, bookkeeper,
1904 Fourteenth street NV, said:
I'm traffic in the downtown area,
If I saw a little space I'd probably
wait until the traffic was slow and
make an attempt. But the thing
I usually do is drive around the
block until I see space that I can
get into without too much trouble. "
Kenneth Ungerer, garage attend
ant, 1890 Twenty-second street NE,
answered:
''I'd keep an eye out for traffic
and pedestrians. II the space was
big enough to get into, I know I
could make it. I've never had any
trouble"
Charles Mayhem, assistant garage
manager, 82l Sixth street NE,
replied:
II would bring my right rear
fender even with the left rear fender
Of the car parked in front OF the
parking space. That would give
me the distance of the space. Then
all I'd have to do would be to
back into it,"

posite shore.
According to police, Emerson Buie,

spark ignited woodwork below deck.
The craft was moored to dock at
Thirteenth and Water streets Sc.
Together with his son Richard,

guests, Mr.. Buie went to work with
fire extinguishers. When their ef-
forts appeared ineffective, they
loosed the boat and pushed it into
the stream. None was injured.
The drifting craft bumped against
a barge being used in dredging OPP
erations and set it af1re, but police
soon extinguished the fire.
Firemen arriving at the boats
