parade of some 800 children
carrying flowers to President
Harding shortly before the
President died. He has played

Last year, at the home of the

Bagpiping, of course, is a
matter Of relaxation for Mr..
Garrioch. BY profession, he
is a gardener. He is now en-
ployed at the Longfellow
School for Boys in Bethesda
and lives on the grounds In a
little cottage with his wife.
The boys who sometimes hear
him tootling away are fas-
cinated by the sound and
come stealing up to watch and
listen. Among Mr.. Garrioch's
regular pupils is a sailor who
comes up from the naval sta
ton at cambridge, Md, once
a week to learn the intricacies
OF bagpiping. For his pupils,
Mr.. Garrioch has a practice
pipe, sans bag, which is easy
to handle and not nearly so
strenuous to play as a full
bagpipe.
Mr.. Garrioch Is patient with
the untutored who say they
can't differentiate between
one tune and another on the
bagpipes.
Yes" he says, Il can under
stand how they might sound
alike. But when you get used
to the sound-when you get
your 'ear'-you can tell the
difference easily"

Fans Yelled for WaIgoii keep Out Of Way, Keep

Bv HUGH FULLERTON. Jr.

NEW YORK, Dec 6.-lR- They tell a story on Francis Albertanti, the fight puhlicist, about time he was betting heavily on Gene Tunney to whip Jack Dempsey in their second encounter After ward someone asked how he felt when Dempsey had Tunney down for the famous long count :. T was on my fest," replica Fran cis, yelling Ike everything for Dempsey
 That's the way lot of people feel about the Joe Louis-Jersey Joe Walcott fight last night They hated the idea of a great champion like Louis losing to a 10-1 under dog. especially a guy with an or dinary reputation like Walcott's But when Jersey Joe floored the champ with rock crusher right and when he danced and side stepped and ducked to avoid the present menace of Louis fists they were yelling like the dickens for Jersey Jce to stay on his feet and stay out of trouble.

BINOCULAR VIEW

From the more distant $50 pews, where the customers couldn't see the damage to Louis face, the fight looked like a dull affair-the kind that would cause the fans to zoo a couple of preliminary buns out of the ring.
 Walcott was the retreating counter-puncher throughout; Louis the pursuer who apparently could not make up his mind what to do next when his jabs failed to find their mark.
 The spectators didn't know it, but they could have seen the scrap enacted, almost blow for blow, on Jacobs Beach any day last week with Dumb Dan Morgan playing the roles of both fighters Re- member Dams prediction Louis can't iab this fellow and Walcott will give him trouble?"

Gridiron GoIidths, Notre Dame, So. California,
 Clash This ?. M.
By WILL GRIMSLEY

NEW YORK, Dec. 6-lR- Two of the nations college gridiron Goiaths-N Metre Dame and South ern California Trojans tangled in Los Angeles today in a belated reg ular season contest that drew most of the spotlight from the first big cluster of bowl games.
 Four bowl extravaganzas were on the days card along with a fist full of other encounters, but they all stood to be eclipsed by the star spangled West Coast battle that matched Americas No. 1 collegiate combine, the Irish, with the third-ranked and Rose Bowl bound Trojans.
 The post-season attractions were these:
 Great Lakes Bowl at Cleveland Kentucky vs. Villanova.
 Glass Bowl at Toledo, O.-New Hampshire vs. Toledo.
 Papoose Bowl at Oklahoma City Wentworth Military Acaoeny VS Northeastern Oklahoma A and M
 Honolulu-F Fresno State vs. Uni versity of Hawaii.
 One of the bowl contestants - New Hampshire placed an un- blemished record on the line. ! A crowd of 100000 was expected to turn out at Los Angeles where Notre Dame defended not only an unsullied record but also possibly the mythical national champion ship against the tough Pacific Coast champions who have beer tied once but not conquered.
 Betting favored the Irish-by l9 points-but pre-game statements by rival coaches indicated Notre Dame victory was far from a certainty.

VFW Says Work In Alaska Not Good

((4') Special WashingtCn SerVicet
 WASHINGTON, tPl - If you want a job in Alaska, go tO Seat tie to get it is the advice of Ray Brannaman of Denver. senior vice commander of the Veterans Of Foreign Wars.
 Brannaman has just returned from Alaska, and he say the em- ployment situation there, among venturesome young war veterans who have headed north with in- sufficient financial reserves, is not good.
 "Already the Salva Ion Army and VFW and other organizations are having to take care of some of those ex-GI's," Bran"aman told reporter.
 Costs up there, for transpOrta- ton, food and everything else, are just about twice what :ley are in the States, and some ot those boys are in a hell of a shape.
 Even with spring opening up, there's not a world of joDS in Alas go. The veteran who wants a job in Alaska can best gel it in Seat tie, where the Territory does most of its hiring, before he leaves.
 That way, too, his pl.Sage will be provided-both way"
