For the past five days I have

realized there was no escape, tried
to make the most Of 1t.
The week before, I had gone tc
the library and borrowed a new
batch OF books which were very in
teresting. Books about the ballet
seem to be in demand with me. So
one of the books was titled Anna
Pavlova," the story Of talented as
well as famous ballerina. Since
like boys books, 7 got 'The Story OF
a Bad Boy" by Aldrich. From its
title, you are able to tell what the
book is mostly about. got three
other books also. With those and
my own books, I certainly had
plenty Of reading matter.

I shall always remember the sum-

I spent in the Great Smoky Noun
tains Of Tennessee. Our cabin was
q small rustic one, and 1t housed
nine of us. It was on an island
which was Just little larger than
the house, and was connected To
the mainland by crude bridge
Each night we were lulled to sleeE
by the Fork River as 1t flowed
around us toward its destination
Waking early every morning, We
three girls would dress and try te

but we never stopped trying. Before
breakfast we would wade knee

After breakfast there was always
hiking.
Always the entire area Of noun

There were also trips to the town,

Skins Hoping 10 Aver
Fourth Loss in Row
AGAINST SteeIers
By d stoff Correspondent, Of The star


PITTSBURGH, Nov. 8. Still
smarting from their 27-26 loss to
the Redskins early In the season,
the Pittsburgh Steelers will try to
show a sellout crowd of $4,000 1t was
all mistake, when they tangle with
the bedraggled tribe tomorrow at
Forbes Field.
It's an important game for Jock
Sutherland's crew, what with the
Philadelphia Eagles only a half
game behind and facing the COM
paratively soft New York Giants.
The Eagles would trade places with
the Steelers If they and the Red
skins win. A Washington victory
also would put the Skins back In the
race, but another setback-their
fourth Straightforward toll the end
Of their title hopes.
Tereshinski May Play.
End Joe Tereshinski, who has been
on the bench with a dislocated ell
bow, may play tomorrow for the
tribe. Vince PaceWic, who has been
nursing a dislocated vertebra, also
thinks he is ready to resume his
place in the lineup, but it is doubt
full If he'll get a chance.
Elsewhere in the National Foot
ball League, the Green Bay Packers,
upset last week by these same
Steelers, will be battling the Bears
for the western division runner-up
spot, and possibly tie for the lead,
while the peacemaking Cardinals
take on the lowly Detroit Lions.
Los Angeles, still entertaining pen
nant hopes, is host to the Boston
Yanks.
Tomorrow's Redskin- -Steeler fray
Is widely advertised as a duel be-
tween the passing Of Sammy Baugh
and the passing and running Of
Johnny Clement, Pittsburgh's Mr..
Zero. Baugh lost his league passing
lead to Sid Luckman last week and
Clement fell behind Steve Van
Buren, in ground gaining. but with
so much at stake both may be hot
tomorrow.
Steelers in Angry Mood.
The goal posts at Forbes Field are
round, fact emphasized by Steeler
supporters who still claim the square
posts at Griffith Stadium were re-
sponsible for the .Steelers' defeat.
Joe Clamp, you will recall, tried an
eleventh-hour field goal that hit the
upright and ricocheted back onto the
playing field. Nobody can convince
Pitt people the kick would not have
been good had 1t hit round post.
Baugh completed three touchdown
passes and gained 275 yards against
the Steelers in that first game, but
only the most optimistic Tribe fans
hope for an encore tomorrow. Pitts
burgh is in no trifing mood and
with the play-of pot Of gold within
view will pull out all the stops and
try to run up score on the Dis
trict delegation.
