Those who came were lavish in
donating gifts of food, cash and
ether items, and reports from the
hospital this week stated that
staterooms and supplies cupboards
are well-stocked as a result of
County residents largesse.
Altogether, some Is clubs five
public schools, two Sunday srhoos
ard 33 individuals made gifts of
canned goods. Contributors came
from as far up-County as Lewis
dale and as far down-County as
Chevy Chase. Even Howard
County joined in and gave gener-
ously through the Fulton Home
makers. Four homemaker CLUBS
alone each gave more than a hun,
bred home canned quarts of fruit
and vegetables.
Laytonsville Homemakers led al.
other homemakers' groups, as they
did last year, and sent along 16s
quarts. The Junior Auxiliary was
second with 1875 quarts and 6SR
pints of jelly.

The heart-warming grand tota
of home canned food was 1,S5(
quarts, 267 pints of good Mont.

commercial tins of food.
And that wasn't all. Othe,
friends of the hospital brought ov.
err rs pounds of sugar; 5 pounds Of
flour, 20 packages of cereal, bu'

In a lively Council hearing,
which was highlighted by sharp
exchange and abrupt gavel pound
ing by Council President Lathrop
f. Smith, names of the 400 and
their plea for something reason
able", were presented by a com
mittee composed of r. Edwin
Brown, Charles Jamison and Will
liam L. Thompson.
While the meeting got under
way on an amicable note, it ended
abruptly when Mr.. Thompson tried
to add a few remarks to a state
ment made by Mr.. Brown, who act
ed as spokesman for the group.
President Smith ruled him out of
order with the gavel.
In his statement to the Council,
Mr.. Brown said the proposed regu-
lations are "wrong in principle;
wrong in practice and there is no
need for them" He said he be-
lieves the Up-County people will
accept minimum, sensible ordi-
nance but that the health depart
ment regulations, if enforced,
would give most of the protection
needed. Recreation areas might
be selected and plans made for
roads alignment, he added.
Later, Mr.. Brown told reporters
Up-County people are making a
real effort to help the Commission
draft an acceptable measure-that,

Attention all you barn dance

front page showing the Johnny

was all right. But under that
picture we wrote that Johnny

from the truth. With red face,
we state and emphasize that
Johnny and Gang will be at the
Ag Center every Thursday at
8:45 PM, and you can make

If Robson happens not to
measure up personally as an in
dividual that you want to talk
with or be with that, after all,
need not be important in the
fight racket in particular. AS a.
fighter he is one of the best in
history.
Prize-fighters, incidentally, are
not known for their pace-setting
abilities in the class department..
Robinson's European tour will
be a tremendous success. After
boxing in Paris he will go down
to Milan to put on a non-title
tussle on June 10 and from there
will wander elsewhere.
For his shot at Milan, under
the promotional auspices Of Sa-
berio Turiello, who used to box
in America, Robinson will get
$4,000 which supposedly is al
ready on deposit in an American
bank.
He will box at Milan in the
Arena, an outdoor stadium which
seats 10000 and will come close
to filling it as a result of the fan
fare which has and which will
precede him.
He rates all that, as a prize
fighter. He undoubtedly will
knock kicking any and all Euro
peans they throw at him who are
within 20 pounds of his weight
He probably can do the same in
this country, except for a hand
full of heavyweights and a light
heavy ior two. He still might take
| them all.
When he gets over there Europe
will be looking at the best fight
er of these times at any weight.
None of the rest even approach
| him.

The world middleweight cham
pion will box a gent named Kid
Marcel in a non-title match at
Paris on May II, and after a
period Of European lu%xuriating
will move on down to Milan,
Italy, to meet an opponent whose
identity has not as yet been re-
vealed.
Robinson, one of the most un-
popular of all champions person
ally, is a top-flight fighter and
as such is in demand everywhere.
He was the best welterweight
in America for a long time, and
he nov is the best middleweight,
not only here but abroad as well.
The Harlem Negro can box and
punch and use such skill as few
fighters know today. He actually
is terrific. He may be the best
fighter at around $50 pounds, or
156, that the game has seen.
Don't let anybody kid you. He
can fight.
As a matter of fact he is
not as much appreciated at
home as abroad.
In France they want to crown
him everything except Chancellor
Of the Exchequer, which means
the man whQ handles the govern
ment cash. They have awarded
him all kinds of honors.
*
THEY MAY DO SAME in Italy
by the time he gets through
there. They are Judging him, OF
course, on his fighting ability
There have been few better as q
fighter.
When it comes right down to
the basic facts Of the case why
Judge anybody except upon his
ability for what he is called
upon to do in his trade or pro-
fession?

Of recommendations showing how
bomb shelters may be built with

Caldwell and his experts are

and it may be published within a

Specifically, the report will
cover standards and specifica-
tions on the underground struct-
ures, ranging from the "fox-
hole" type - A ditch dug in the
ground, supported by timber and
covered with earth - to larger,
more complete units.
The National Production Au-
thority says it has no objection
whatever to shelter construction
as long as the projects are buried
in the ground and do not extend
over the street level.
If the shelter is raised as much
as o~ne-story above the ground
line, the builder will have to OBJ
tain an NPA license to do the
work. In the past, the agency has
rejected such applications.

 But today with the selection Of Dick Savitt, Herbie Clam, Bill Tal- bert and Tony Trabert for the 1851 U. S. team, the complexion of things was almost completely changed.
 Now the United States officials are predicting a better than even chance of carrying the ancient mug back to these shores at the end of the challenge round in December.
 Savitt and Flam will play singles in the first round against the Jap anese team at Louisville starting July 20. Talbert, veteran of many a Davis cup team, will team with the youthful Trabert in doubles
