PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.-Two
sophomore passers are taking over
from the old guard as the arms"
of the National Football League.
For years Sammy Baugh, Tom
my Thompson, Sid Luckman and
Bob Waterfield have had the top
spots among NFL passers pretty
much to themselves.
But league statistics released
today showed the new NIL
arms" are Johnny Lujack and
Charley Conerly. Two years ago
Lujack and Conerly were wreck
ing college passing marks as they
tossed Notre Dame and Missis-
sippi to the top among undergrad
uate ranks.
Lujack is a scant point ahead
of Conerly under the NILS in
verse grading system after the
two dueled last Sunday.
Lujack, coming in after Luck
man failed to connect for the
Chicago Bears, tossed his club
right back into the ball game
against the New York Giants, but
Conerly, Tipping for the Giants,
was equal to the task. The Giants
won 1928.
With II competitions in 127
tries. Lujack has connected for
,006 yards and eight touchdowns.
His accuracy mark is $50 per
cent. Conerly has tossed 80 times,
hit his receiver SO times and
gained 300 yards and eight tbs.
He has hit on 53.5 per cent of his
losses.
Washington's Baugh is third,
Philadelphia's Thompson fourth,
Los Angeles Waterf1eld sixth.
Luckman isn't even in the top 10.
The leagues perennial ground
gaining champion, Steve Van
Buren, Of the Philadelphia Eagles.

Those gay bunnies and baby chicks
which parade across our Easter
cards and are prominently featured
in every promotion associated with
the holiday have history reaching
back over many centuries.
Even the word Easter is ancient,
for it comes from Eostra, beautiful
pagan goddess of spring once wor-
shipped throughout Europe.
For the entertainment of children
long ago, according to legend, Eostra
magically changed her pet bird into
the familiar Easter bunny. That's
why the rabbit of today's Easter
legend still builds birds nests and
lays colored eggs.
Fluffy chicks and ducklings, also
associated with Easter, personify
the breaking forth of new life in
the springtime. The Greeks, Gauls
and Romans regarded the egg as the
symbol of creation, and the Egyp-
tians hung ostrich eggs in their
temples.
WORLD FROM EGG
According to Persian sun worship
pers, the world was Matched from an
egg on the vernal equinox, or first
day of spring. So they celebrated
their new years festival at time
corresponding to our Easter, and ex-
| changed the first colored eggs ir
history as good-luck charms.
Early Christian consecrated eggs
at Eastertime and stained them q
deep red to symbolic the blood OF
Christ. During the Middle Ages al
Easter gift of colored eggs came te
| denote sign of affection. Nobility
exchanged artificial eggs of silver
mother-of-pearl or bronze.
Colored eggs proved rather i'm
practical to send any distance, how
| ever, and in the middle of the nine
teenth century people of northern
Europe began exchanging Easter
| greeting cards, usually consisting Of
religious scenes.
EASTER GIFTS
Easter gifts apparently began il
the late 140O's, and a popular East
er sport for youngsters was shoe
seizing. To win forfeits, little boys
would steal the shoe buckles of little
girls, or the whole shoe, if they
were quick enough. The girls would
snatch the boys caps in retaliation
Easter always has been a time fol
| introducing spring fashions. The
custom dates back to the spring pro-
cessions Of ancient China, when
| richly gowned Mandarins haughtily
displayed their new robes. The
American Indians also tremendously
| donned new apparel in the spring.
Most characteristic Of all Easter
customs, OF course, is attending
church services. Early Christians
worshipped in secrecy, without music
or pageantry to avoid persecution,
and at Eastertime in Rome they
drew crosses adorned with flowers on
the walls Of the catacombs. The

Men changing address, leaving
their present address for extended
vacations or otherwise becoming un-
available for contact by mail should
notify the seleetive service board in

The board does not ascribe pres

Mrs. Roosevelt Tells Own
Tales Of The South
Pacific In New Memoirs

Of all the many trips which
Eleanor Roosevelt made during
the war, the one the globe-trotting
First Lady had most set her heart
on was viist to Guadalcanal. De-
spite strenuous opposition of
her husband and of Admiral Hal
sey, she had her wish. In the sixth
installment of her memoirs which
are appearing in the November
issue of McCall's Magazine, the
War Presidents widow tells the
inside story of her long and ardu-
GUS South Pacific voyages, which
Ne' husband asked her to take to
build up and report on morale
in Australia and the fighting
fronts.
81 pleaded to be allowed to see
our men on Guadalcanal and
other islands," says Mrs. Rose
welt. Franklin finally broke down
and gave me letters to the COM
handing generals and to Admiral
Halsey saying that he was willing
to have me go to Guadalcanal If
it did not interfere with the con-
duct of the war"
81 have since learned that
Franklin told the Australian prime
minister and Admiral Halsey that
no matter what he wrote or what
he said was not to be allowed to &c
to Guadalcanal because he thought
IL was too dangerous. However, he
did not have the courage to tell
me-"
In addition to her own travel
ling the First Lady had the task
Of entertaining visitors to the
White House from many distant
parts of the world. Among these
was her warm friend, the First
Lady of China. Mrs. Roosevelt
misunderstood Madame Chang
Kai-shek's character, she now ad.
mits, and described her to the
President as a "Sweet, gentle
rather pathetic figure. The Presi.
dent, however, turned out to be
keen judge of women, as of men.
"The little hand that looked like
velvet and the low, gentle voice
disguised determination as hard
as steel. l remember an incident
at dinner party which afforded
Franklin particular entertainment.
John L. Lewis was acting up at
the time, and Franklin turned to
Madame Chang and asked: What
would you do in China with a
labor leader like John L. Lewis p
She never said a word, but the
beautiful, small hand came up
very quietly and slid across her
throat-a most expressive gesture.
Franklin looked across at me to
make sure l had SEEN"
Mrs. Roosevelt's memoirs, which
run to over $4,000 words, are APP
pearing in McCal's in seven
monthly installments. Revealing
many new and significant facts of
her husbands family and public
life, they cover the critical years
of Franklin D. Roosevelt's career
from 1924 until his death, accord
ing to Otis L. Wiese, editor-in
chief of McCall's.
