1t was Jackie Robinson Day -
more or less when the Brooklyn
Dodgers came to town to open the
Grapefruit Circuit here at Miami
Field Saturday and Sunday.
The Dodgers stars were instru-
mental in bringing out two of the
,argest crowds ever to attend either
an exhibition or regular baseball
game since 1916 when the N. Y.
Brooklyn, Dodgers game
drew 5000.
Robinson and Campanella were
the main attraction, however, the
pulling power of the Dodgers and
Champion Boston Braves must not
be overlooked.
For Saturdays game the SRO
sign was hung early and many dis.
appointed fans turned away.
In he fourth inning of the first
game Robinson treated the fans to
the thrill they came for when he
lifted pitcher Antonelli's first fling

dium-335 feet from home plate.
Campanella clinched 1t in the 9TH,
just before being taken out, when
he poled a homer over the left field
fence.

had the small field bullying and
spilled out on the field along third

The team had a very successful
season, winning seven of the eleven
games played and ran up good
scores in each game.
Doris Prince, "a Freshman of Haines
City, Florida, is the high pointer
for the season with 100 points. Her
excellent ability also makes her the

team.
Marion lCeons, a Junior of Day.
tona Beach, Florida. is the second
high pointer with AZ points for the
season.
Ida ''Rusty" Baker, a Freshman
from Hartford, Alabama, proved TO

ITO An Anxious Friendo

You tell me that law is above

that you can have no wise laws nor
free enforcement of wise laws I'M

wisdom of the people and alas.
their folly with it. But if there is
freedom, folly will die of its own
poison, and the wisdom will survive.
That is the history of the race. 1t
is proof of mans kinship with God.
You say that freedom of utterance
is not for time of stress, and l reply
with the sad truth that only in time
of stress is freedom Of utterance IN
danger. No one questions it in calm
days, because it is not needed. And
the reverse is true also; only when
free utterance is suppressed is it
needed, and when it is needed, it is
most vital to justice.
peace is good. But if you are in
terested in peace through force and
without free discussion - that is 60
say, free utterance decently and in
order your interest in justice is
slight. And peace without justice is
tyranny, no matter how you may
sugar-coat it with expedience. This
state today is in more danger from
suppression than from violence, be-
cause, in the end, suppression leads
to violence. Violence indeed, is the
child of suppression. Whoever
pleads for justice helps to keep the
peace; and whoever tramples on the
plea for justice temperately made IN
the name of peace only outrages
peace and kills something fine in
the heart of man which God put
there when we got our manhood
When that is killed, brute meets
brute on each side of the line.
$50. dear friend, put fear out OF
your heart. This nation will survive,
this state will prosper, the orderly
business of life will go forward IL
only men can speak in whatever
way given them to utter what their
hearts hold by voice, by posted
cards, by letter, or by press. Reason
has never failed men. only force and
repression have made the wrecks
in the world" This editorial won
the Pulitzer prize.

The Bell Tolls

Today when so many of our lead
ers in government, judiciary and

away the last vestige of the rights

laws because they seek to achieve
real democracy, l am forced to pre-

CHARM
BY LOU sWARz
Nv. SMILE AND STAY SMILING
THIS is 1T

What is more charming than the
person whose perpetual smile is a
lay of sunshine to others?
That face which has a perpetual
smile from within, has beauty. For
such a smile can only come as a re-
suit of thlnKlng only good.
TO bring the value Of smile for
chilly to the front take the liberty
to quote from the "Apostolate of
Smiling"
Just a little smile on your lips.
Cheers your heart
Keeps you in good humor
Preserves peace in your soul
Promotes your health
Beauties your face
Induces kindly thoughts
Inspires kindly deeds.
Smile to yourself
Until you have warmed
Your own heart with the
Sunshine of your cherry
countenance. Then go out
and radite your smile.
SMILE - on the lonely faces
SMILE on the timid faces
SMILE - on the sorrOwful faces
SMILE - on the sickly faces
SMILE on the fresh young faces
SMILE on the wrinkled old faces
SMILE - on the familiar faces Of
your family and friends.
Let all enjoy the beauty and in
spring cheer of your smiling face
COUNT - if you will the number
Of smiles your smile has drawn
from others in one day. The number
will represent how many times you
have promoted contentment, JOY,
satisfaction, encouragement, or con-
fidence in the hearts OF otners'
These dispositions always give birth
to unselfish acts and noble DEEDS.
The influence of your smile is
spreaded though you do not always
see the wonders it is working.
YOUR SMILE - can bring new
life and hope and courage into the
hearts of the weary, the overburden
the discouraged, the tempted, the
despairing. Your Smile - wins FOR
YOU admiration and host Of friends
and electrifies your Charm, Smile
and stay Charming.

Last Sunday the Mercantile Ii
brary of Philadelphia brought to
Washington a powerful team Of
20 players, which included nearly
every name prominent in Phila-
delphia chess for the last two
decades. The Washington Chess
Divan turned out in force to op-
pose the invaders. but found itself
considerably overmatched. =
On the upper 10 boards, in
spite Of the breaks going against
them, the Divanites were able to
offer an effective resistance, but
on the lower 10 they were
swamped. When play was termi-
mated in order that the visitors
might catch an early evening
train, Philadelphia had won nine
games and lost only three. The
one game that remained unf1n-
ished and will be adjudicated, the
contest on top board between Dis
trict Champion Hans Berliner and
Attilio Di Camille. is perceptibly
in the Philadelphian's favor.
Seven games were drawn, so that
the score at present stands 12h-
6l2. The pairings:

Old Georgetown College
By John CIoqett Proctor

Georgetown became a part Of
Prince Georges in 1895. and in
1748 a part OF Frederick County.
When the Maryland State consti-
tuition was adopted, in 1776. Fred
erick County was divided into
three portions, the lower part be-
coming Montgomery County, In
honor Of Gen. Montgomery, who
was killed in the siege Of Quebec;
the central portion retained its
name Of Frederick County, while
the upper part became Washing
ton County.
AS a part Of Montgomery Coun-
ty, it was included In the 10-mile
square by the act of Congress of
July 16, 1790, and has since re-
mained a part of the District of
Columbia, although in the early
days it was in favor Of retroces-
sion.
Georgetown is not the same
place it was in 1900. when Presi-
dent John Adams first came to
the new Capital to look over the
"city" and later to take UP his
residence in the now historic White
House. Georgetown was then
credited with a population Of 1893
persons. which by 1911 had in
creased to 4.948.
The Union Hotel was compara-
lively new, the cornerstone having
been laid July 4, 1893. It was de-
stroyed by fire in 1882 and the
later building, which occupies the
site, was first opened for business
in March, 1885.
This building and the one 1t re-
placed were. in the early days,
almost the only resort Of noted
men whose names form part of
the history Of our country.
Had Famous Guests
During sessions Of Congress, it
was a common thing to see from
go to 80 members associated
within its ample walls, including
such leading lights as John Ran

The adjourned position on first
board is a rook and knight ending;
the pawns are even. but two of
Di Camillo's are connected posed
ones on the queens side and will
be hard to stop.
Shapiro adopted the Ruy Lopez
against Levin, and was met with
the strong point variation of the
Morphy defense. A typically
heavy game in which neither side
made any progress resulted, and
most of the material was still
on the board when a draw was
agreed.
Rubinow used one of Nimzo-
witch's lines against Stark's
French defense, giving up his QP
for blockade of the center. After
a difficult game both sides got
into the worst kind of time pres
sure, but Stark's flag was the first
to fall by second or so.
Hesse tried another Nimzowitch
idea, l N-KB3 and 2 P-QN3,
against Ruth, who built up very
careful and solid defense; the
game was quite even at all stages
and a draw was justifiably agreed
upon.
Cantwell adopted his favorite
kings Indian against Morris, and
came very well out Of some re-
markable tactical complications.
After missing some good opportu-
mites he touched his queen. which
had no move, and had to resign.
Weiner played an inferior de-
fense against Eaton's Evans gam
hit, and the later kept exploiting
the exposure Of Weiner's king in
very acute tactical play which
finally bDke down q determined
opposition.
Fox versus Winkelman was an
other strong point Ruy, but Fox
did break through the black de-
fenses by long and most inter-
esting combination. The game on

Aaron Burr when in his prime, the

and many whose talents and rep
utations will continue to live for
ages. Mr.. Clay often stopped here,
and Martin Van Buren, and Gen
Van Rensselaer, OF New York used
to reside here when in Washing
ton.
An early account tells us:
MANY Of these gentlemen used to
live in the splendid style Of the
time. Rufus King, Mr.. Otis Of
Boston, Mr.. Murray, the first
British Minister sent to this
country. and many Of the South
ern members were remarkable for
their fine equipages and high
manner Of living. A stage was al
ways in waiting to convey the
members of Congress to and from
the Capitol, and every night the
apartments of the house were
wont to echo with the ready wit
and the pregnant Jest or with
animated discussions on the po-
litical occurrences Of the day."
The lower part Of this old tav-
ern was years ago converted into
stores, which now include Nos.
1921 to 1929 M street, and the
upper floors are now divided into
apartments, and those who dwell
here little suspect that they live
beneath the roof which once shell
tered so many representative men.

The fourth annual area exhlbi.
ton, which opened at the Cor.
coran Gallery of Art last Sunday
to remain through December 18
Is undoubtedly a reflection of 1.-THE
many -sidedness Of the artistic
production in the (Washington)
area" as Hermann Warner Will
liams, director Of the Corcoran
states in his preface to the shows
catalogue.
Totaling 271 works, this years
display is in striking contrast to
last years meager offering OF
20 creations, mostly modern. This
years generous selection fills two
second-floor galleries and the
atrium. It ranges from the most
painstaking naturalism, In which
are depicted every leaf and blade
of grass in a landscape. to the
wispiest distractions, where few
airy lines carry the whole burden
of the picture. Consequently,
there is surely something to please
every taste. There is also plenty
to annoy every taste. to raise blood
pressure and start arguments,
which is probably all to the good.
A factual account of the fourth
area show appeared in last Sun
day Stars news columns. with a
complete list of awards and honor
able mentions. The variety in
these, as we'll as the extensive
range of the show as a whole,
revealed the epic broadminded-
ness of the jurors, Franklin Wat
kins. Philadelphia painter, and
Oronzio Maldarelli, New York
sculptor. Artists are not generally
credited with ability to discern
merit in works which differ great
" from their own creations. Hence
one can only marvel at these Cor
coran jurors feats.
