PLASTIC STARCH.
from Mrs. J. E. S., Arlington

The lady's trouble with
the plastic starch puzzles me
for I have used it so much,
with such good results. Once
I even used it full strength.
1t made the garment too stiff,
but one washing in scalding
hot water restored the gar
ment to usefulness.
I get best results drying
clothes first and then a mix
ture of half plastic starch,
half water. And don't forget
to shake well before using!

BY late 1904, the House had moved

site the Supreme Court chamber
while construction work was be-
ing done in the south wing which
contained the new chamber, now
known as Statuary Hall. In 1907

as the Supreme Court Chamber
and in 1859, on completion of its
present wing, moved in there.
Interior Remodeling Slated.
Since 1885, except for the Sen
ate's brief tenancy in 1910, the
old Supreme Court chamber has
been maintained exactly as the
Court left 1t, with doors always
open to tourists. Because of its
limited size, however, it likely will

mated at $4,000, 600.
The June 80 move will be the
sixth Congress has made in 149
years and its second since 1941
when it moved back into quarters
after the dangerous roofs were
strengthened. It moved out No

worked Sundays and nights to
complete the project four days
ahead of schedule.

lottery to finance remodeling. It

says, but he referred to offer an
estimate of how many years the
structure can go without major
repairs.
First Rooms Occupied in 1900.

their first quarters in the Capitol

BY now, had it not been for the

oratory alone could have set up

Unlike most eviction victims
Congress has a choice of where to
go and won't even get it's feet wet

move into either the old Supreme

in the Senate Office Building. The
House will 60 to either the present

Or, if it chooses, Congress can

sion closes, but the extensive roof

Greek letter fraternities, he
said, especially those composed

East West Baseball
Classic Sunday

CHICAGO, Aug. 10. Especially
Upwards of 100000, including
Baseball Commissioner Albert B.
Chandler, will see the 18th annual
East-West baseball classic next
Sunday afternoon, August Ia, here
in Comiskey park.
In addition to the baseball car,
a good number of major league
scouts are expected to be on hand
to watch the game pitting the out
standing stars of the West divis-
ion against the East division of
the Negro American league, which
has been sponsoring the game ever
since its inception in 1888.
The scouts will be seeking fu-
ture big league timber, as this
classic has produced several out
standing players who eventually
found themselves in organized
baseball, including the major lea
CUES. Some Of the greats who per-
formed at one time or another in
East-West competition are the
ageless Satchel Paige, now with
the Cleveland Indians; Larry
Dolby, also with the Tribe; Roy
Campanella and the celebrated
Jackie Robinson, both with the
Brooklyn Dodgers, and Monty Err
win with the New York Giants,
plus a lot of others who are now
earning their spurs in the minor
leagues of organized baseball.
The appearance of Commission
Ell Chandler at Sundays game
marks the first time that the base
ball car will be in attendance
at the big classic, which has
drawn $4,000 for the inaugural
game in 1888 and has grown in
leaps and bounds ever since. The

game was in 1913, when a record
