Last Five Games Hold
Key 10 Caps Hopes

The Caps have only five more
games left on the Basket Ball
Association of America schedule
but in spite of the fact Washing
ton has the Eastern Division title
locked up. these remaining tilts
looms very important-theoreti-
cally, that is.
For when the Caps enter the
post-season title playoffs. they are
going to be on the spot. They fin
ished as divisional champs in the
le4e-47 season and were knocked
off in the first round of the play
offs. Some observers said the Caps
were tired out, and should have
taken it easy after they clinched
the Eastern loop honors. Others
said the Caps coasted in the home
stretch and were OH stride for the
playoffs. a~s;..ea. -
So the Caps, have five more
games in. which to take it easy"
or keep in shape. Either way the
critics will be on their backs If
they don't bring home the bacon
The Caps play at. New York
Wednesday night, entertain Fort
Wayne at Uline Arena Saturday
night; play host to Minneapolis
March 16; travel to Philadelphia
on the 17th and wind up their
season here against New York on
the 18th.
The Western Division race
meanwhile, continues to be a
scramble. The Rochester Royals
who have won AZ of 81 games and
currently are riding the crest OF
an 11-game winning streak. are
far from home in their bid for the
title. The Royals downed Fort
Wayne, 1856, last night to main
tain their slim two-game margin
over Minneapolis. The Lakers de-
feated Providence. $3.50, in the

Redskins Sign Great
Tackle Prospect in

The Redskins came up with a
lot of tackle today when the post

dren, the 25-year-old Hendren
will be able to look down on
that familiar Redskin landmark,
6-foot-7 John Adams. Hendren
stands 6 feet 8, wears size IA
shoes, but is reported remarkably
agile for a gent that size.
An all-Pacif1c-Coa selection in
1947 and tabled by Grantland
Rice as one of the most promising
collegians on the gridiron, Hen
dren has been plagued by injuries
that kept him out of enough
games to bar him from all-Amer-
ica consideration.
They're not the kind OF in
juries that will be recurring Ed
wards explained. He doesn't
have a bad knee or anything like
that. He's peen out with a bro
ken hand, broken ankle and
things like that"
Edwards first spotted the big
fellow during the war years when
Hendren was playing for an Air
Force team in California. DRAFTED
a couple of years ago. he returned
to college and was a Southern
California regular from ls46
through last year. He was picked
on the East West squad this year
and started at right tackle Tor

Mo. Hendren won the State high
school shot put and discus cham

a sizable reputation as a basket

How Music Is Learned
by David Taylor Marke

It's easy to teach a child how to
understand music. says Kay Kyser.
The populor Professor Of the Col

tains that right from the cradle
practically every child is musical
and it is fairly simple to channel
his musical talents into construc-
tive lines as he progresses. through
the years.
In a recent statement, Kyser OBJ
served: You've seen a youngster
shaking his rattles, haven't you9
He likes the noise it makes and he
learns the fundamentals of rhythm
at the same time. Later when that
misguided uncle gives him a set of
drums for his third Christmas, the
child will give you practically end
less demonstration Of just how
much he knows about rhythm"
The ability to distinguish betwe-
en- harmony and discord comes fair
" early. too he says. When a baby
is learning to sit up, prop him near
a Piano and watch him swing at the
keyboard. At first he'll bang away
at a fistfull of notes every time,
but eventually ne will make the
discovery that he gets a more plea
sent tone if he strikes just one key.
Later he'll find out that it is even
! more pleasant when he hits certain
combinations of notes.
Nursery rhymes are another i'm
pOrtant step in the development of
musical memory, says Kyser. A
| child is more likely to be interested
in the musical adventures of "Three
Blind Nice than in a Mozart SON
alta, and it is a good idea to let hiEl
progress by easy stages.

Arousing juniors interest in the
works of great masters is a job
that can be done in easy stages,

ample, wrote "The Carnival Of the
Animals" which should delight any
child. Tschaikowsky's Nutcracker
Suite" and Prokofieff's Peter and

Social Security Tax
Rises january 1st

The rise in social security taxes
from / to IA per cent on workers
wages goes in to effect January /,
1850 regardless Of Congressional
action on the bill amending the
present Social Security Law, it was
stated today by Joseph B. 0'ConnOr,
Regional Director of the Federal
Security Agency.
Mr.. O'Connor's explanation was
made as result of numerous in
quiries which have beens made by
both workers and employers re-
garding the effective date Of the
tax rise.
"The scheduled increase" he
said, results from Congressional
action in 1947 when the original
rate Of / per cent was continued
until 1949, and then permitted to
raise to ~ percent. In the original
Social Security Act. .gpassed in 1885,
this tax was to begin at / percent
, in 1887 and go up II percent every
three years to a ceiling Of 3 per
cent in 1949. However, Congress for
number Of years subsequently
frOze the tax at per cent"
Mr.. o'Connor pointed out that
for the present the new tax applies
to wages and salaries up to a total
/ of $4,000 year from one or more
employers.
"The proposed amendments tC
the existing law increase the
taxable wage base to $500, but
they are still in the Legislative
stage. The amendments were pas
eed by the House, and are now a.
waiting action in the Senate"
Mr.. O'Connor emphasized tina
