 ROUNDUP
By HUGH FULLERTON

NEW YORK. Jan 24.-You've heard lot about star baseball players who had difficulty com ing back after war service. or couldn't make it at all This year you may be hearing about kids who grew up in service and now are ready fer the big leagues . There's Cincinnatis Grady Hattcn, for instance. who made good last year without the benefit of minor league training And Clint Hartung, who is coming to the Giants hailed as a combination of Paul Bunyan. Surerman and Mysterious Montague Another is the Cubs Henry Schenz, who was .246 hitter at Portsmouth, Va. before the war After three years in the Navy, he joined Tulsa last year and hit .333. He also belted A doubles and drove in l04 runs to lead the Texas League in 10th departments and struck out only 23 times in 596 actual trips to the plate The l947 rookie crop likely will incluGe lot of others who developed the same way.

Three Teams of Local High in Game -ACS Lose 10
 Moose Last Night
SCORES LAST NIGHT
Juneau High 55; Sitka High 20
 Moose 43: ACS IS

Sitka High Schools Wolves bit off bit more than they could chew last night when they tackled the Crimson Bears of Juneau High School. But the visitors ~rre swell sports. and took their ..e.eat with good grace
 Coach Avrit started his first string of Merritt, Aase, Rude. O'Connor and Mead. They started slowly, soon discovered what an advantage they had over the Sitka boys and ran ur a score of 16 points before the whistle, while the Wolves snagged four.
 That was all for the first team. Av1it held them on the bench and sent in his second string in hopes of more even game. The second period was worst. Juneau Highs Sanford went on scoring spree, sank 10 points which were match ed by 10 made by teammates. Wag- ner of Sitka sank one goal; and Ladely, substitute, made foul shot. That set the half-time score at 36 to ', in favor of Juneau.
 At the beginning of the third period. Juneau Highs second string took to the floor again against Coach Gaylord's squad, but that period the Sitka High team pick cd up considerably They scored with Juneau point for point as Wagner, Martin and Calvin made bucket apiece and Smith sank a pair. Smithberg made three goals for Juneau, and Schmitz toss ed two more, which brought the score to 46 to IT.
 The Sitka Wolves were still out played for the most part, how ever, so Ayrit sent out his third team for the final period. By that time, with fresh team to play against every quarter of the game, the Sitka tsam had every reason to be getting tired.
 They had played hard, clean tall all the way; but facing fresh string of Juneau players was diff ficult. Coach Gaylord replaced Grover with Didrickson in the final

One i section of bleachers was pretty well filled with their rooters. who included the members Of the Con- way Dock Company squad which has not yet been able to- return home because of poor flying wealth CT
 Second Game
 ACS could well be termed the unluckiest team in the City League. They work hard at bask etball, gen. erally play cleaner game than their opponents - but they can't win
 That's tkc way "5 was last night when tEe ACS played the Moose. In the opening quarter ACS made five points on two Baskets by Uher and free throw of Bucy's. The Moose hadn't gotten warmed up. but sank total of 10 points. In the second period, the Moose took complete control of affairs, held ACS ecoreless while they put in five lield goals and two fret throws for an even dozen points. That set the half t',he score at 22 to 5.
 The third period saw both teams do lot of running up and down the floor. but almost no scoring. ! Timakeeper Eide took time to mark down an ACS bucket by Bucy and two goals for tke Moose.
 In the final quarter, much of the play was down in the ACS half of the floor, but the baskets were mace at the other end. Moosemen would tangle with ACS in defense of their goal. and when they got the ball, send long toss down to the far end of the gym i The tactics of feeding the ball usually to Braehm gave him a chance to score 13 points for the Moose team in the fourth period

battling one. She may be compe-
tent secretary, a skilled clerk or an
experienced saleswoman. She Is
still a useful member Of the COM
munity, but she is no longer young.
She will probably find that an EN-
ployer will consider her age def
mite liability, in spite Of her expe-
rience. And the job will go to a
younger woman. With its finger on
the working pulse OF Washington,
the United States Employment
Service, through its employment
counseling service, helps these
women find satisfactory employ
ment.
The women in the professions fare
better when they reach maturity.
There, experience is counted more
valuable than youth. Also, the
women who are interested in work
ing as housekeepers usually do not
run into an age barrier. But the
woman who competes in the busi-
ness world in a clerical capacity
finds herself at definite disad-
vantage.
Miss K, a woman in her COS, was
employed as clerk with the Gov
ernment. When her age disquan-
fed her as an employe, she went to
the United States Employment
Service for help. She talked to a
counselor, who advised, as her first
step a physical examination. 1t
was learned that Miss K. was In
perfect health.
The counselor then went to work
on placement. It was discovered

Theater
Notes

The opening night Of HAM
let" at the National Theater
last Monday was a treat for
the theatergoers who saw 1t.
Many of the ladies in the
audience wore their Easter
bonnets to the theater. Luckily
they were thoughtful enough to
remove them during the per-
formance. One most attractive
chapeau was a natural colored
straw In a flne weave that had
heavy mesh black yelling
draped around the crown, with
the ends of the yelling falling
over the young lady's shoulders.
Another theater picture hat was
worn by a young lady with an
upswept hairdo-a halo-like af-
fair of black polka dotted veil
ing. Also spotted was a wide
headband of daisies that one
girl chose for her hair decora-
ton.
Many suits were worn. A few
black faille theater suits were
seen and many Of the new
spring shades for suiting were
also noted. Among them were
the very attractive muted yel-
low tones, and the use Of the
black skirt with a contrasting
colored jacket in green, pink
and blue. White and black
proved another popular color
combination. E. s.

FOOD WAYS TO HEALTH.
From Mrs. T. D. A., Arlington.)

drinking glass of water and drink
at least four glasses during the day.
2. Eat good breakfast every day.
3. Eat slowly, at regular hours and
chew all food well.

5. Eat some cereal every day;
cooned cereals are best.
6. Eat at least one vegetable be-
side potato every day; more If pos
sible.
7. Eat more fruit, either fresh or

that when q Job was available IA
which Miss x. would have to meet
the public, the employer preferred .
younger woman. Another approach
was adopted. The counselor learned
that Miss x. had experience IN In
stttutional housekeeping. Following
this lead, three good Jobs were
found, from which Miss x. made
her choice. She Is now reported
happy In Job In . nursing home.
Different is the problem Of the
woman who has never had working
experience, and has found herself In
the labor market. A USES coln-
selor, in this case, looks into the
woman's history to discover talents
or ski1ls she may possess. She may
not have held an Office Job, 1t Is
true, but she has probably knitted,
crocheted, drawn pictures OF has
developed some other skin. The
counselor tries to find q Job In
which the woman can utilize one Of
these skilk.
USES has been doing employment
counselng since July Of 1915.
Headed by Miss Kathryn N. Fox,
the service Is offered today to any
one who Is not occupationally ad-
justed. This includes the person
who needs . Job and the person
who is unhappy In the work he ts
doing. The service Is offered re-
gardless Of education, age, sex or
race Of the person In need Of help.
The files OF the service are crammed
with interesting and fascinating
cases, many Of them records Of per-
sons who would appear doomed to
disappointment In the job market,
who were guided to q job. As well
as the older person, the disabled
person, the displaced war worker
and the person who is just entering
the working, world benefit by the
service.
A counselor, incidentally, frnc-
tions differently from an inter-
viewer. It is the job Of the coun-
selor to follow through with one
person, taking as much time as Is
needed to help the person find q
satisfactory job. The counselor Is
familiar with the job market, with
the types Of jobs and the qualiflca-
tions for them, as well as with the
specific jobs available locally.
Stats employed by USES visit the
stores periodically, checking on job
possibilities. Some organizations
contact USES regularly when an
employe Is needed. The small busi-
ness man-regarded by USES, Incl
dentally, as the average employer in
Washington sometimes contacts
them when help Is needed. House.
wives call when looking for domes-
tic help. And counselors have ac-
cess to various employers In fields
in which the prospective employe Is
interested.
The counselor learns Of the won1-
ans life, her skills and interests and
other factors which are affecting
favorably or unfavorably her value
as a potential employe. The woman
is sometimes referred to the Reha-
bilitation Service, also established
by the Government. Here, physical
defects, such as faulty eyesight or
bad hearing, are corrected. The
service may also see that the woman
gets further training, if necessary,
in order to make her more valuable
to an employer.
