London holds ul4disputcd first
place in the Mid-Six League after
their TO victory over Westerville

The victors lone counter came in
the second period on a five-yard
pass from Bob LeBeau to Bill
Hunter.
The ball, having been advanced
for a second down. two 10 go,
on the 43. was then carried for
the first OF the London thirteen
first downs in the game. London
had an early scoring opportunity
after LeBeau's toss to Hunter was
complete in Westerville territory
but a penalty on the next play
took the line of scrimmage back
to the mid-stripe Later the Wild
cats took possession, but were
hit by he hard, bruising London
line ard lost yardage.
LeBeau, Simpson, and Duffey
started the march with a first
down. Simpsons end sweeps and
MINERS plunges placed the pig
skin on the hosts IL at the end
of the first quarter. The team
plowed to the five yard marker
where LeBeau pitched to Hunter
for the touchdown. Hunter boot
ed the conversion for the stand

[ Jackson recovered a tumble for
the Raiders on the Westerville
35. A pass from Simpson was
incomplete in the end zone when
Miller momentarily lost the ball
in the lights. The Wildcats charg-
ed back to London's A on two
first downs. Burwell's pass was
intercepted by LeBeau but for
safety, London punted. The ball
changed hands often in the re-
mainder of the half and finally
rested on London's 81 at the half
time
Only two definite threats were
made in the last stanza. I'm the

This and That

Robin nests are made with mud paper
and grass.
The wood thrush, robin cousin, uses
some leaves in making it's nest, and
that is one way of telling the nests apart.
The mother robin chooses the nest
site. ~
This may be in tree, or on plat
form erected by some human admirer.
The robin shelf. as it is called, has
bottom and roof, but no sides, since
these birds do not like to feel hem
med in.
The nest building requires several
days, with the female doing all the
chores.
She first gathers some grass, and
places it in the selected position
Then she makes platform of mud,
which she brings in her bill. Often
she gets her face very dirty in this
process.
Her mate might help her great deal,
but he never does.
He is too busy singing and chasing
away enemies and rivals.
At this time he often fights his own
image in window, thinking his rehec-
ton is another male robin disputing his
territory.

Mr.. Syn,inqton's New Job

There is ample reason to doubt the wisdom
OF continuing the RFC under any scheme of
reorganization. This is a depression-born agency
designed to serve a depression need There is
very little, if any, excuse for it in time like the
present. But it is like so many other Federal
agencies-easy to create, almost impossible to
kill
If the RFC is to be kept as going concern,
the single administrator plan Of operation which
has been approved by the Congress is great
improvement. And Mr.. Truman has made an
excellent choice in picking w. Stuart Synington
to head up the reorganized agency. It is hard
to believe that MFR Symington, present head of
the National Security Resources Board, could
have wanted this new job. But if he is confirmed
by the Senate, as he undoubtedly will be, the
public can be assured that the RFC will be eff
ciently run and that the Influence boys" will
have to look for some other place to do business.

he is by no means as helligerent as the
male blue jay.
The young robins are all mouth and
throat, q fine orange-pink color. and
as for the rest of them they are re-
markably ugly, SO much so that the
father will not even feed them.
It is only after week, when their
eyes have begun to open, and they have
grown some feathers. that the father
robin will bring them worms and insects.
All this week the mother has been
faithful, protecting them from the sun
with her own body, and bringing them
food.
The young are in the nest about is
days, when they take off, in their wob
bly, fashion, but soon learn to fly well.
One of natures most curious pro-
visions for keeping the nest clean is
found in this species. The young rob-
ms ejecta is encapsulated. These white
objects may sometimes be seen in
nest. The mother removes the cap
sules. either throwing them out of the
nest, or eating them Her own intes-
tinal tract is so short that they do her
no harm
Baby robins are peculiarly helpless
on the ground, for all their size. Their
spotted breasts plainly show their rela-
tionship to the thrushes. Grounded

to the nest. or brought up by hand"

far different from that of smaller

The latter never seem to see any diff
ference between the egg of the inter-
loper and their own.
It is believed that the large number
of robins are due. in part. to this intelli-
gent action of the old man.

the eggs for approximately two weeks

- don't know whether q three-shift
plan Tor Government employees is the
solution to the ofice-space problem. But.
as one having lived in Washington
during the last war, I say it certainly
seems better solution than appropriat-
ing apartment houses for Office space.
It would be unforgfvable to usrrp
much needed living quarters, especially
at the very time more and more people

housing situation were kept in better

around -the-clock working offers bet
ter working space than hot temporary
buildings or excessively overcrowded ones
--and at much less cost to us taxpayers
than building, renting or buying addi-
tional Office space. It would have an
added advantage of spreading the al
ready congesteds traffic load, as well as
helping the Office parking situation.
The only disadvantage: Some people
might not want to work the early morn
ing shift. To fix this. perhaps some sort
OF dlfferential in pay could be worked
out for the three different shifts, so as
to make the late shifts somewhat more
attractive. If this differential is not too
great, it shouldn't cost the Government
as much as excessive turnover due to
inadequate living quarters. nor as much
as the cost of building, renting or buy

The Little Boy in the Baseball Cap

The little boy in the baseball cap added Just
the final touch to the picture. The General lived
up to expectations by looking like an eagle;
his lady was graciousness itself But the wide
eyed little boy wedged between his parents
delighted everyone by looking like any 13-year-
old boy having the time of his life On his first
visit to his homeland Arthur Macarthur has
seem nothing but crowds, has heard nothing but
cheers. On his first day in the Capital, he sat
on the floor of Congress with distinguished
generals, and he rode down Pennsylvania Avenue
IN car with the top down, with bands and flags
and whistles greeting his arrival He sat on the
platform at the Monument Grounds grinring
from ear to ear, ruminatively chewing his gum
no doubt to the dSpleasure of his mother, who
was probably willing to be tolerant on so high
an occasion. He got gold watch from the city
OF Washington with all sorts of extra hands
and gadgets that will probably help him in
meetings with other boys his own age after
things have quieted down bit 2S'.8 s
Arthur Macarthur hasn't said much for
publication about all this head-turning welcome
Anyone studying his expression and his pictures
could with good reason conclude that he thinks
it's wonderful He probably hasn't thought
ahead to the time when it won't be all waves
and whistles and screaming sirens He is getting
his keys to the city-and to the country-quite
early in life. The young friends he must win
may hold it against him little at first But on
the whole he won't have too bad a letdown. His
parents are wise, and he will probably find out
that while they aren't always so noisy about it,
people are apt to be quite nice to small boys with
big smiles

Building a Defense Fund.

Several letters have been printed in
your columns urging that any refunds
received from the recent voiding of the
1949 gas rate increase be donated to
charity. While this is a good sueges-
ton, there is another that should be
considered.
The court fight was started by the
Federation of Citizens Associations in
the name of its public utilities commit
tee chairman, Vernon w. Baker, as a
consumer OF gas. The Federation had
no funds with which to pay expensive
court costs and costs of stenographic
services and printing, even though at
torney fees were not an item since mem
Der attorneys donated their services. The
Federation receives only SIS annual dues
from its member bodies, and has no
other income.
consequently, Mr.. Baker was making
himself liable for thousands of dollars
unless individual delegates and member
groups of the Federation could collect
sufficient funds to meet expenses. And
this was no easy job. as the delegates
are all volunteer civic workers with
little extra time for solicitation.
The Federation was able to raise
enough money to pay costs incident to
winning the case. Had it lost, it would
have had to secure additional funds to
meet any assessed costs, or let Mr.. Baker
mortgage everything for years to come.
And collecting for lost cause would
have been almost impossible!
# the Federation has permanent
fund 50 that no personal risk is involved,
it IS much more likely to fight in the
public interest when necessary.
Consequently, any gas rate refunds,
however small, might well be contributed

Does Ridgwoy Agree With Macarthur?
To the Editor Of The Star:


TT rs HARD to pierce through the din
= ming domestic cacophony over Gen.
MacArthur's dismissal and homecoming
to the long range global issues involved.
The chief issue is allied unity, without
which the communist tide cannot be
stemmed in Korea or anywhere else.
Every one will agree that the dismissal,
if nothing else, strengthened this i'm
perative unity.
It is therefore alarming to see Rep
resentative o. K. Armstrong, Republi-
can of Missouri, sowing the identical
seeds that sprouted international ten
sion before the generals removal.
I refer specifically to the Congress-
mans contention that It. Gen. Mat
thew B. Ridgway shares Gen. Mac
Arthur's viewpoints on winning the war.
At a March IL press conference on
the central front Gen. Ridgway said, "It
would be tremendous victory for the
United Nations If the war ended with
our forces IN control up to the 38th
Parallel"
Reputable press reports at the time
emphasized the difference between this
viewpoint and the statement made by
Gen. Macarthur five days before-that
reaching such point would be "theo-
retical military stalemate."
At the same press conference Gen.
Ridgway insisted: I'VE did not set out
to conquer China. We are fighting COM
munism in Korea. the only place in our
struggle with communism where there
is shooting"
He could not conceivably have shared
Gen. MacArthur's desire to bomb Man
churia and rush Formosan troops to the
Chinese mainland. 6
Moreover, Gen. Ridgways awareness
OF political considerations is obvious in
his statement made at another central
front press conference April8: 81 would
see no end to the military operations
unless there were political settlement" /"

trust that you will open your columns

say that the date of Watson'S meeting
Holmes certainly is 1873 or 1872 Doyle

in his dates, but venture to contradict
you on the following evidence. which is
not necessarily complete.
The time of THE Sign of Four is
apparently shortly after A Study in

Holmes and Watson metz, since in the
flrst-named story Holmes refers to the
latter as if its incidents were recent.
Now in THE Sign Miss Mary Morstan
tells Holmes that her father disappeared
on December 3, 1878, nearly ten years
ago." And "A Scandal in Bohemia" /"
when Watson had been away from
Holmes for only some little time since
his marriage to Miss Morstan, begins
on March 90 1888. Furthermore, In
The Five Orange Pips" Watson speaks
OF my notes and records of the Sherlock
Holmes cases between the years '82 and
go" Also. in "The Gloria Scott" that
vessel had cleared Falmouth on Octo-
ber 8, 1855, thirty years before Mr.. Trev-
or's death, which occurred before Holmes
met Watson.
do not say that the above-m mentioned
dates can be reconciled one with the
other, but at least they give no support
to the contention that the Holmes Wat
son meeting took place in 1878 or even
1879. Mycroft Holmes.

meeting with Sherlock Holmes occurred

1ndefenSible. Watson proceeded to the
military hospital at Netley for further
training and then served in the second
Afghan War. He was seriously wounded
in the battle of Maiwand, which was
fought in July, $780, His recovery was
quite slow, principally because of an at
tack of enteric fever so severe that "for
months (his) life was despaired Of"
Thus the earliest date at which he
could have been introduced to Holmes
was January or February of 1881.
although the severity of his illness and
the length of his voyage of repatriation
may be said to argue for January or
February OF 1882 as the more probable
time. Certain internal evidence limits
the event quite closely to those months
of the year.

To Correct a Mistoke

It is too late for Congress to correct the
mistake it made early this session when it
abandoned the successful single package appro-
priation bill system, but it is not too late to get
back on the right track next year and the critical
years ahead The concurrent resolution spon-
sored by Senator Byrd and 46 other Senators
would assure revival of the omnibus bill. Here
is an opportunity for legislators who are worry
ing about deficits and taxes to do something
concrete about them. For experience with the
one bundle appropriation bill last year showed
conclusively that 1t can save money for the tax
payers.
Chairman Cannon Of the House Appropria-
tions Committee who was unsuccessful in in
ducing his committee to retain the omnibus plan,
has estimated that more than So billion was
cut from the budget last year by consolidated
appropriating. Despite that substantial achieve
ment, Congress this year went back to its tradi-
tional, inefficient method of considering dozen
bills in turn, Under this system the total of all
appropriations will not be known until the last
bill has been passed and the total generally
bears little or no relation to the pending revenue
bill. With the one appropriation bill Congress
at all times knows what the total of proposed
appropriations is and how much money must
be brought in by taxes to balance the outgo
Senator Byrd and his colleagues point out
that $40 billion deficit is staring the Nation
in the face, as result of expenditures estimated
for the fiscal year beginning July l. For an in
definite number of years beyond that the ver-all
Federal budget is expected to hover around $75
or $50 billion. IT would run much higher, of
course, if the present world tension we're to in
crease, or If the war in Korea were to spread.
With such a disturbing fiscal outlook, Congress
can i'll afford to do its appropriating with
binders on. It will appropriate blindly if it
fails to coordinate proposed outgo with pros
pective income.
The Byrd resolution is like the one which the
Senate adopted last year. The House failed to
pass it, preferring modified single-bill proposal
