Mr.. Hoover's Color
John T. Future.

MT. 7oover S SolI0r
Perhaps John j. Simko intended to
say, in his letter to The Star of De-
cember 81. More on Hoover" that ex-
President Hoover's ideas on our foreign
policy are out of date. But the sentence,
Former President Hoover's comments
are as outmoded as the collar he wears -
does not really say that. Since Hoover
wears modern collar. as anyone can
see from the pictures of him in numerous
publications. the sentence would mean
that his comments are entirely modern
The notion of the old-fashioned collar
might have come from photographs
taken before World War or from a re-
cent cartoon on the front page of The
Star. but not of the December % date
The cartoon in that number shows ex-
President Hoover in modern collar He
did wear a high, double folded collar
when it was in style, just as he wore a
high-band collar during the Spanish
American War period.
There was never more style to a collar
than that high band had. Ask grandpa!
The height of it was limited only by the
length Of the youths neck. It fitted
snugly under the chin and ears. The
head could be turned only from side to
side, if at all. Since the band collar was
only slick. hard, long, white cylinder,
the necktie had to be anchored securely
both front and back. The tie was
always ambitious to climb to the dizzy
top of the collar. and when it succeeded,
the girls stopped admiring and began to
giggle. The ends of the band had to
overlap enough in front to prevent sep
aration, for if the front parted momen-
tarily as the head tried to tip forward,
the skin of the neck was seized and held
as if in steel trap.
Then after the turn of the century
came the high, folded collar shown re-
Gently in the cartoon of Hoover in The
Star. Former President Hoover wore all
those collars when they were in style.
and he was always fashionably dressed
Let the author of the little sentence
quoted above find out the difference be-
tween modern and outmoded collars and
between photographs and cartoons, and
then he will be able to criticize better
the ex-President
George Frederick Miller.
With reference to Mr.. Simko's letter
in The Sunday Star of December 80, to
the effect that Former President
Hoover's comments are as outmoded as
the collar he wears" it might be pointed
out that Mr.. Hoover wears his own collar
which may or may not be the case with
a number of his critics.

Shut Up and Put Up

I and great many other Americans
are sick and tired of all this talk by our
so-called leaders about what terrible sac
rif1ces we are going to have to make.
Why don't they shut up and do the
necessary job they are hired to do, and
let the people take care of the sacrifices
as they have to be made. The American
people will do what is necessary or am
very much mistaken.

unnecessary If Russia can be con-
fronted with superior force, a mighty
air armada equipped with an over
whelming superiority of atomic bombs,
peace will be secured. Large land armies
are obsolete; we could win even now in
Korea with nothing more than huge
air force and the atom bomb. A large
army will hamstring our economy and
ability to produce planes and high fire
power. We are outnumbered and can win
only with machines for mass, effective
slaughter.

some pages later, with frankie Sim
atra and Ava Gardner.

true, as you can see for yourself,

have been missing from the
before they became Bolshies
Howerever, they can't win this
time, regardless of their own
statistics on Russia's recent ac-
complishments in sports.
This viewpoint comes from Dan
j. Ferris, head Of the National A
AL and as such an important fig
ure in our Olympic setup.
Asked if the Russians might win
according to their own figures
especially devised to keep the
people back home happy, Ferris
replied:
II don't think they can win no
matter how they score it."
Ferris said that according to re-
liable reports, the Russians can
and probably will win in Women's
track and field and figure to score
point in other events. But it is
extremely unlikely that they will
get enough points to make a dent
in Americas chances.
"We've won our share of the
Olympics in the overall point
scoring, including the last games
held at London, and we have never
been beaten in mems track and
field, going all the way back to
1896 when the modern games Were
started"
He agrees that Russia has a fine
basketball team, but insists ou1
team will be better and expressed
doubt that the Russians can ever
beat the Argentines who are re-
garded as our toughest competit-
ors.
The Russians will be reasonably
tough in wrestling, and proved il
by beating Finland, and they have
some fair boxers, but again they
do not look like the best in these
two sports.
In weight-lifting, they faiIe(
against a U. S. team at Paris il

skies showed up at Milan thi
