Moves Back Into League Lead
18-Yeor-OId Stur
Overtokes' Singer
By Ben McAIwee

Lifting his average to 127-21 for
80 games with a 40 set, Jack Bark
ley, 18-year-old southpaw bowling
sensation of the Arcade Pontiac
quint, has moved back into the
Major District League individual
lead by a f1ve-pin margin over
Champion Julie Singer of Winchest-
er Packard, who dropped to 127-16
with 358. It's the third time this
season that Barkley has held the
top spot.
Firing 413, Lou Je :ins Of Galliher
g. Huguely hiked his average to
127-15 to move only six pins behind
Barkley. Jenkins grabbed the pace
setting position away from Barkley
six weeks ago, only to lose 1t to
Singer,
The close pennant scrap last night
saw the front-running Manns
Potato Chips lead cut to single
game despite 2-1 victory over
Senate Beer as Burr Heishman Tires
gained clear possession of second
place by sweeping Winchester
packard. The Chris Heurich entry
won the first game, 636 to 596, but
dropped the final two, 592 to 622 and
642 to 66e. Bob Miciotto climaxed
the nights high set of AIS with 154
to give Mann's the edge. Harry
Aiken helped Mann's with 388. Joe
Harrison's 1872 was best for Senate
Beer.
Aided by cletus Pannell's 15s-ss7
and Johnny Burgers 145-389, Burr
Heishman Tires chalked up its first
sweep Of the season in routing Win
chester Packard.
Winn's Motors was off to a win
from Galliher & Huguely with 65S
as Paul Jarman started 395 with
1856 and Lindsay Stott hits for LAG
but with jenkins bowling 1856, 13e
and 139 and aided by Whip Litch-
fields final 147 the lumbermen won
the odd skirmish with 6S9.

Austin Winston, our center,
snapped the ball to Nelson by
mistake. 1t was a pass play and
Nelson who had never passed be-
fore, threw the ball and COM
pleted the pass for touchdown.
The next day the papers said I
crossed up the other team. An
other time Beanie" Brown, who
was slightly deaf, missed the
punt signal and pulled out OF
the line for a running play and
we were credited with a new idea
on kicks. No, I wasn't any genius
or another Rockne. I simply had
good boys with lot OF spirit who
would follow instructions"
Hardell could talk for hours
about his early days at Tech
when the entire squad had to
travel by streetcar to the Monu-
ment grounds for practice. The
boys dressed at the tourist camp
and had a cold shower at the
finish, but it was fun and didn't
seem to hurt their play. HardeN
had a champion his first year
with the "big" team at Tech.
That was 1923. He took five in a
row from '28 through 1882 and
gave it up in 1886 with another
winner. Surely out of all those
teams he must have had one
"all-time" group.
'1 don't know" he said. Its
hard to choose between boys like
Jack Cline, Marcus Geiger, Ham
Adams, Jack Baxter, Carlton Ed
wards, Jedd Florence and their
kind. I don't think honestly
could do it, they were so closely
matched. Let's just say they
were all good and let it 60 at that.
I'm sure of one thing, though,
their spirit really paid rich dlvi-
dends when was in the hospital.
I doubt if every coach would have
been as lucky"

There's picture of Artie
Wondrack when he had some
hair on his head" laughed Hap
Hardell, leafng through an over
stuffed scrapbook. He was
fine player-used him at guard
and then at fullback, and he did
a good job at both positions.
That's Charley Pugh, Sid Kolker,
Bradley Edelbut, Gordon Kessler,
Homer Drissell, Beanie Brown,
Dutch Wolfarth :"
The former Tech High School
football and track coach, who is
recaperating from a recent op-
Grafton, intoned names that
had graced all-high teams and
helped make athletic history
in this balliwick more than
a decade ago, when WASH
ington still was a sleepy, If over
grown, village. Only Tech, Gen.
tral, Eastern, Western and Busi-
ness-now Roosevelt - contested
for interhigh athletic honors
then. and Hardell was king OF
the roost on the gridiron, and his
track record was just about as
good.
Mike Kelley's Eastern track
team beat us out three times in
row." Hap said, refectively
scratching his head as though
still wondering how 1t happened.
Look at this picture Of Dick Mel
son." he continued, delving
deeper into the pile of scrap
books at his elbow. HE was only
16 when he played his first game
for me and handled all the punt
ing and punt catching without
once fumbling. But Ward Och
mann was only II when he was a
frst-string guard, and a good
one"
Hardell, who expects to return
to his teaching duties at Roose-
welt in January, and who also will
resume as Georgetowns track
coach at that time, remembered
something pleasant about all his
boys. But it was only natural.
because if youngster didn't
measure up to his high standard
he didn't stay on the Tech squad
very long.
Toughest game?" repeated
Hardell in reply to our question.
We'll, off f-hand I'd say the 1929
game with Central. They out
weighed us by eight or 10 pounds
a man but we beat them, 1875, on
three passes by Aubrey Spencer
to Dick Nelson, AL Reichman and
Dunbar Goss in the last As sec
onos of the game And Central
had that great backfield OF Larry
Pinckney, Paul Hinkle, Frank
Cumberland and Gus Mirman,
and it had George Brandt and
Angus Lamond in the line. 1t
was a good team but we had the
spirit and by golly we beat them. y
Hardell was the Knute Rockne
of Washington football those
days. His teams were the smart
est and hardest of the lot. A
Tech eleven was conditioned to
60 so minutes at top speed and
even if it lost the opposition came
off the field as rundown as a
Christmas tree toy on the second
day. Central was the only team
to beat a Hardell-coached eleven
more than once. The Blue won
four games from him and tieo
one, but got licked nine times
Techs record against the others

Hap drilled his quarterbacks

On August 14th the New York
Journal-American printed an art

purported to deal with racial hat
red as a cause of risunity. In it
OCCURRED this sentnce, Even the
preaching and propagation Of rac-

saying that murder, lying, and

they are faults in human nature.
It is the fault itself which makes

Mr.. Pegler goes on to discuss
the case of Douglas Chandler,
the American broadcaster for the
Nazis, who was convicted Of trea
son in a Federal Court on July
30th. He makes much of the legal
definition of treason and says, re.
ferring to Chandler, that "it was
no treason to live in Germany, to
be friendly with the Nazis even
ito Hitler himself, to write pro,
Nazis material and to broadcast
for the Nazis right down to the
hour when war became a legal
fact"
This Approach is likely to be de-
ceptive. For a patriots devotion
to his country goes far beyond
any legal Interpretation of the
crime of treason. A patriotic

and supports the principles and
ideals of this Reublic, He is not

cism. The fact that our principle
of freedom of expression allows
opponents of Americanisn legal
ly to aaitate for some un-Ameri-
can doctrine does not wipe out
this distinction between the pat
riotic and un-patriotie American.
For the patriotic American uses
his guaranteed right of free
speech on behalf of the improve
ment and perfection of our free
isntitutions. The un-American ex-
ponent of subve4sive activities
employs his guaranteed rights to
tear down the very structure of

protected. Both may be acting le-
ga1ly. But only the former is act
ing periodically.
