EXCL. Notes

sponsoring the tournament is the
usual one-finances, that Is. To
help the visiting teams. some guar
antee of expenses must be made.
Floor rental, referees fees, and
prizes viii also require large a.
mount of good old coin of the
realm. Some OF this money viii be
raised by tournament dances, and
the rest will have to come from
ticket sales The tournament COM
mittee is pretty optimistic about
being able to raise the necessary
funds and being able to finish in
the black, so In spite of the finance
problem, it is going right ahead.
Aside from the athletic spectacle
of eight crack teams participating
in a big basketball jamboree, the
tournament will also prove that
Chinese and Japanese can work
together and put over a big project,
to the credit of both nationalities
Since this is the first time a tour
nament of this kind has been tried,
the Seattle tourney will be closely
watched by other sections of the
U. S. With the necessary coopera-
tion from the general public, it
should be a great success and put

the Japanese homeland waters. The records of

Tournament dates: December 20,

A tournament of this size means
a tremendous amount of work, and
committee members are already
hard at it, under the energetic

If you are lover of coray movie
fare, we heartily recommend "Spir-

is very good and corny. Being
based ON a military theme, 1t should
particularly appeal to our veteran
readers, who will probably burst
into tears when they discover what
a rugged life the Kaydets lived
during 1942-1946. Man, it was rough
to get up early enough to be able
TO play football. A lump rose in our
throat, and we had to brush away
suspicious moisture from our eyes
as we watched the emotional ira

the pro ranks, sat in the stands tc
see his former teammates go on &C
victory without him. What grip.

She has been offered residents
job in hospital. She will keep her
older girl and the little one with
her. The boys will 60 to Dams
mother. Dan will live there, too.
Georgia won't have an easy time;
all hospitals are unavoidably over
working their staff members now
But she feels that it will be more
satisfactory than what she is doing
as plain Mrs. Crompton, in seven
room, two-story house in quiet
residential neighborhood.
And there it is, today's knottiest
problem. The miserable problem
that frets and nags at thousands of
marriages that might well be
saved. A man doesn't appreciate
what his wife is doing. because it
simply isn't in mans nature to do
SO. The woman wants children,
adores them when they come, and
finds herself so swamped, SO tired,
so over-worked that she can't stop
to enjoy them.
The gracious old days Of big
houses, old family servants, Grand
ma and Aunt Carrie as assistants,
are over. They won't come back.
The salaries of cook and nurse
would come to a little more than
the Crompton's entire income.
Georgia doesn't charge Dan with
the intemperance, extravaganza or
tight-fstedness with which many
women charge their men. Appar-
emily he is just one of those vain,
unthinking, complacent men who
take for granted a comfortable
home, clean, well-fed children-all
managed by a devoted, pleasant,
tidy, efficient wife, manager, cook,
nurse, marketer and companion all
rolled up in the soul, body and mind
of one small woman.

UNAPPRECIATITE

Like most mothers, Georgia
Crombton is very busy and never

She has four children, all young.
although they are fairly sveH off,
she cannot hire any help. Her
nerpes are trayed and her patience
about exhausted.
What irks Georgia most, she
tells Miss Norris, is THE COMPARE
tiDely easy life her husband leads.
He "ean go off to bis golf Or fish,
ing Sundays, meet bis friends for
lunch; be is still bimseT." This
freedom and independence is
more than Georgia can bear. She
feels that she is not getting her
share of assistance and praise
from her husband. Once in

Georgia is tired of it all, she
says. She is seeking a diporee.

Dan, but hes just like all THE
OTHERS" She happens to be a ply.
stefan and she expects to accept
an excellent position that a bos-
pital has offered her.

just takes it all for granted. 1t is

fabric is such as will have to be dry
cleaned, and spotted so that even
this type of cleaning may not be
effective, skip the bargain. It
just isn't.
Always. make certain that the
markdown you buy is to your
liking. Most of them cannot be re-
turned, and this may make you un-
happy once you have it at home.
Don't forget to relax in the midst
Of your shopping spree. Have your
lunch or afternoon snack amid
pleasant surroundings and forget
about the shopping for three-quar-
tiers of an hour. Then get up and
finish it, feeling relaxed.
Renew your makeup at least once
during the day, and get off your
feet while doing it. This will give
you a real lift in morale, and you
can better concentrate on shopping
once you've rejuvenated yourself.

Womon,s World
Plan Carefully at Home Before
Starting Out on Shopping Spree
by &,4a Haley
BY G,tta Haley

THERE'S nothing women like to
L do better than shop, as is proved
by the fact that they do approx
mately IS per cent of the nations
buying. But, some of our sisters
do like to spend money better than
shop wisely. It's more fun never
theless, to get your moneys worth
when the spree is over than it is
to come home with a lot of odds
and ends that make you wonder how
you could possibly have bought that!
To shop intelligently requires
more than free time and the ability
to stuff your shopping bag full Of
purchases. 1t requires sitting down
the day before and doing some seri-
GUS thinking, checking and making
a list.
Don't think for minute that your
storekeeper won't appreciate thatl
He likes to serve women who know
exactly what they want.
Check Clothes Closet
Before Purchasing
Stop to take look in your closet
before dashing out to buy dress
or blouse. Do you really need it,
or would a suit answer the purpose
more adequately? What color goes
best on you? And do you have &C.
cessories to 60 with it, or will you
have to buy those too?
These are some of the questions
that can be solved before you buy.
Decide, too, on the approximate
price you can afford, and then check
the sources where you can buy mer-
chandise in that range. Sometimes
it's a good idea-after you've made
your ist-to check by telephine, to
see if.you can find merchandise at
the price you want, and where.
Telephone inquiries will save shoe
leather and wear and tear on you, If
you have a lot Of shopping. Try
it and see how much more satisfac-
tory it is.
When you make out a shopping
list, jot down the stores you will
60 to, after each item. Also, set
down the price, as this will tell you
about how much money to take

For the Record

Twice congress passed a tax re-
duction bill conceded even by its
proponents to be political and in
equitable and twice it was We
toed by the President. It passed a
presidential succession resolution
providing that the speaker of the
house shall succeed next in line to
the vice-president; this, however, is
a constitutional amendment which
must be ratified by two-thirds of the
state legislatures. It did nothing
about high prices and it virtually
ended rent controls, and as a result
prices of everything the consumer
buys have scared to unprecedented
heights and rents already are up.
Congress left UNDECIDED among the
debris streiDn in its wake such vital
measures as the anti-monoboIy bill,
several measures to aid psterans of
World War III, the minimum tDage
bill, measures to aid education and
to increase pay OF school teachers,
national bealtb bill, the extension
Of benefits of social security legisla-
ton to include all The people, The
various regional river authority bills
to create IVA set-nbs in tho Mis-
souri,, Columbia and other river
basins, and adequate housing lesis-
lation.
In addition, despite specific pro-
visions Of the 1916 congressional re-
organization act, congress failed or
refused to conduct the affairs of
the government on a business basis
in setting up minimum of expendi-
lures and then cutting the tax cloth
to fit. It even has failed to follow
its own reorganization act.
