Young Jockey Hikes
Winner Mark 10 D;;
Feature 10 PiIaster
By the Assoeioted Press

BOWIE, Md, Nov. 27.-Apprentice
Jockey Clarence Picou scored his
fifth triple of the Bowie meeting
which closed today, but he had to
take a back seat in the featured
BRYAN and O'Hara Memorial Handi-
Gao.
HI. Straus' long -winded Plaster
returned to winning form by coping
the S15.250 stake by two lengths
from George M. Jacobsen's Big Dial.
Picou wound up seventh aboard
Brookmeade Stables Chains, winner
of his last three starts. ..
Picou started off the day with the
first two winners, but had to wait
until the eighth and last for his
third. He finished the meeting with
29 winners and left for New Orleans.
Plaster, 4-year-old gelding
which had won four previous stakes
on the Maryland fall circuit, beat
10 other horses in the mile and
three-sixteenths race. He had lost
his last two starts.
Mrs. Marie Moore's Gallorette, the
all-time .leading money winning
mare, was scratched because of the
muddy track. She will be retired
for breeding next spring in Virginia.
Backers of Plaster, which upped
his earnings for the year to 72,000,
got back 81 for 50 win tickets.
Chains and Inseparable were made
cofavorites with Plaster by the
crowd of 16,988.
The betting total for the 13-day
meeting which wound up major
racing in the East was $11, ,762, ,346.

Neighbor's Apples

By George Keoueh, "A
Anoeostia High School

One day about three summers ago
an urge came to me to try the apples
on a tree not far from my home.
The next thing I remember IS that
1 was plotting a course so that 1
would be invisible from the owners
house.
1 got down on my stomach and
began to crawl. I squirmed around
the rose bushes, up the path, behind
the chicken coop, and then-there
it was, pretty as picture and load
ed with large red apples.
Closer and closer I crawled until,
finally, was at the tree. l had got
to my feet and was reaching for a
large, juicy apple when, suddenly, a
voice doomed from behind me: Hey
boy, what re you doing in that
tree?"
All know is that my feet started
moving. must have brokeD at least
half a dozen Olympic records.
From that time forth I have made
it a rule that if I want an apple
I'll buy it.

lust Between
Yourselves .
BY Philip n. Love-

This Sunday-after- Thanksgiving
is a good time to get acquainted
with the children Of Mrs. Wally
Merker of Munich, Germany-a girl
named Ute and two boys, Goetz and
Kurt.
During the war. their father was
reported missing in action by Hit
lers army, and their mother was
sent to a concentration camp for
helping a British airman who had
parachuted into Germany. Mrs.
Merker had been imprisoned twice
previously by the Gestapo, for what
reasons, I do not know; but this
time she was liberated by American
soldiers who took over the concen-
tration camp in April, 1945.
Mrs. Merker, now "a, is belatedly
pursuing her lifelong ambition to
become a doctor by studying medi-
cine at the University of Munich.
She would have graduated last year,
but her studies for the final exanni-
nation were interrupted by the news
that her husband, missing for five
years, had ben found. He was in q
Hamburg hospital, hopelessly i'll.
OF course, she went to him.
One of nine CARE food packages
sent overseas by members Of Eastern
High Schools National Honor So
ciety found its way to Mrs. Merker.
She wrote the society a letter Of
thanks, inclosing snapshots of her
children. The pictures, published in
a recent issue of the Easterner,
showed the boys wearing suits made
from sugar sacks.
But the reason I thought this
Sunday fter-Thanksgiving q good
time to make you acquainted with
Ute, Goetz and Kurt was this SEN
tence in their mothers letter:
For once, we have eaten until we
had enough, and what Is left Is
being saved for something nice on
Sundays"
Speaking of Munich, James Bar
rett of Woodrow Wilson High School
spent five months at a boarding
school there.
THE school was a co-educational
American dependency" James said
recently in the Wilson Beacon.
"On the football team, which was
the best of all the dependency teams,
] played guard"
When the team won the cham
pionship, it was given a banquet in
Hitler's private art gallery.
Jim was in Germany seven
months, all together, his family
occupying house in the suburbs
of Augsburg, about 40 miles from
Munich.
A turtle race sponsored by sixth.
grade pupils was the feature of q
carnival held recently at St. Peters
School, according to notes from
Rosalie Hammett, 10, and Barbara
Jean Saliga, IL.
Seven miniature turtles ran or,
rather, sauntered, crept and slept
down the track" Rosalie reported.
"The colors of the turtle-backs
ranged FROM Kelly green to crimson
almost a rainbow"
THE poky turtles crept along at
nearly the same pace all during the
race" Barbara wrote. I'm order to
pep up these slow-moving creatures,
we wrote songs. One was to the
tune Of De Camptown Races"

experts in personnel just as are
the people who run a successful

is nowhere near enough-that men

is to seem attractive as a career. Mr..
johnson cites, for instance. good
housing, instead of the dreary bar
racks which typify most army and

equitably rotated tours of duty, and
educational opportunities on a par
with those available to civilians.
OF very great Importance, he ad-
vocates that there must be a clear
channel of promotion from bottom

been made. it is evident that pro-

mere fact of seniority-or worse
