-Four Major Changes
Made in 1850 Rules
For Soap Box Derby

Four major changes have been
announced in the rules for the
1850 All-American Soap Box
Derby. :
Reversing a stand taken just
a year ago, Derby officials have
ruled that power tools may be
used in the construction of
coaster cars for races this year.
Such tools were prohibited last
year.
Derby officials also have stated
that contestants may use any
method in painting their cars.
In the 1949 contests, cars had to
be painted by hand.
Cockpits Must be Open.
Another major rule change this
year prohibits vertical or no
rizontal laminating of wood used
in body construction. The COM
mittee further specified that the
sides of the cockpits of the car
must be open and that the bot
tom of the cockpit must not be
more than 13 inches from the
ground.
The committee also specified
that official Soap Box Derby
wheels made before 1948 may not
be used. and added that bedroom
or ballet slippers may not be
worn by drivers.
Howard P. Bailey, general chair
man of the Washington Soap Box
Derby, yesterday advised all>boys
planning to compete in this sum-
mer's prize-laden race to start
building their coaster cars now.
Fred Derks, winner of first
place and an all-expense college
scholarship in last years national
finals, started working on his car
the September before" Mr.. Bailey
pointed out. "We know that the
top winners of the last five or six
All-American Derbies have started
construction months before the
final race" he added.
Open To School Boys, IL to Is.
Mr.. Bailey said date of the
Washington race has not been set,
but added the District elimination
probably would be held early in
July.
The Soap Box Derby, sponsored
here by The Star. is open to all
school boys between the ages of
II and is.
Winner of the Washington race
receives, in addition to several
awards of sports equipment. an
all-expense trip to Akron, Ohio,
for the All-American Soap Box
Derby.

HARD TO GET

HATTIE THE HOARDER got out
IL of bed looking unusually hag-
gard. She had just had a harrow
ing dream. In it she had been on
a bus with her friend Mabel the
Mooch.
"I'm going down to buy a few
things that may be hard to get"
Mabel said in the dream.
"Tm doing the very same thing"
Hattie the Hoarder said. 1.-THE
smart thing to do is to get whatever
is apt to get scare If you don't
get things nov they'll be hard to get
later"
"They always tell you there are
no shortages, but we both know
better" said Mabel. II got me a
lot of nylons yesterday. I want to
see about some aluminium kitchen
things today"
"Joe says we could get a new
car" said Hattie. 1.-THE old one
isn't bad but if the var lasts it will
be hard to get a new one for
years"
Erred was saying the same
thing" Mabel put in. "He may
put a tank in the yard and store
some gasoline. I think I will see
about a new electric washing ma
chine. They'll be hard to get. Are
you putting away any sugar."
1--WE got quite a little but I think
its only common sense to get some
more. That's always hard to get"
said Hattie.
The little woman who had
been in the seat ahead in the
bus, a crumpled telegram in
her hand, now turned on Hattie
and Mabel, in the dream.
"DO you know what this is?"
she demanded, showing the
wire. "Well, take a good look!
My kid has been killed in &C
ton. This is the official notifi-
cation. 1t amt hard to get!"
Hattie recalled that in the
dream she and Mabel recoiled,
quite embarrassed.
"He's gone now" the little
wOman went on. "He wasn't
hard to get when his country
called him. They're in big sup
ply, kids like him."
But" began Hattie the Hoard
er.
give been getting a load of your
conversation" the little woman
went on. 81 couldn't help it. I'll
tell you DANES a few other things
hard to get A voice that's
stilled forever! A footstep on
a gravel PATH"
1--WE were just talking" Hattie
tried to interrupt.
"Iceboxes! . Nylons!
Autos! =. Tires! -. Sugar! -.
exclaimed the little woman. Hard
to get! Yeah, but if you're a
fast worker and a heel you can get
'em But the light in a kids
eyes as he starts for the sandlot
or the fishing creek nothing
will get that back And a pic
ture of life without my boy
believe me, sisters, there's nothing
harder to get than that"
"We're terribly sorry" admitted
Hattie in the dream. I'VE just
didn't stop to think"
$50 few do just now" said the
woman, folding the telegram
and putting it in her black bag.
''This is where 1 get off Happy
superfluous nylons and lots of un-
necessary sugar!"
It was here that Hattie the Hoard
err awoke from the dream with a
start. She won't feel right again
for weeks.
