CAMP GROUNDS.
WESTERN CAMPING TRIP.


WESTERN CAMPING TRIP.
Mrs. S. H. E., Bethesda
I am interested in locating
good camp grounds within a
days drive of Washington.
We have camped a good deal
in the West and in the Adiron-
dacks, but would like to find
some place closer to home, per-
hapS in a State park. SWIM
ming and fishing close by are
essential.
My husband is planning on
building a plywood car-top
boat. Since he has never at
tempted anything of this sort
he would be most interested
in hearing from any one who
has experience along these
lines.
For M. M. NJ: Camping
equipment is an extremely in
dividual sort Of business! It
depends mostly on the way
you like to live, and what one
person thinks essential anoth-
er may consider Superfluous.
Most people like the following:
Umbrella tent with floor. gas
oline stove. gasoline lantern,
neSted set of cooking utensils
with an assortment of kitchen
items such as pairing knives,
pancake turner's, can openers,
etc., two buckets, hand wash
basin, one or two large tar
paulins and at least so feet Of
rope. Most camp sites. eSpe-
cially in the National Parks,
provide picnic tables with
benches, so a folding table
while nice to have is not es-
sential and the same goes for
folding chairs. We like to pack
equipment in two orange crates
and take along a two by four
piece of plywood. The orange
Gates set on end make good
shelves for storage and the
plywood can be laid across for
a work surface. Two or three
yards of oilcloth are good for
covering the picnic table as a
tablecloth. We use air mat
treSses and regular blankets.
Cotton sheet blankets are more
comfortable than regular
sheets. especially in the noun
tains where it is likely to be
cold at night. Sweatshirts
and pants are ideal pajamas.
If you plan on doing any
laundry be sure to take some
thing big enough. We use a
small plastic inflated gasoline
iron, but I get along well with
out one.
To get an idea of available
equipment send for the camp
equipment catalog from Aber-
combie g. Fitch in New York
City. Also write to Sunset
Magazine, Lane Publishing Co.,
in Menlo Park. Calf. They
used to publish a book on
camping. I will be glad to an
swer any questions I can, If
you contact me through the
RICH.
My husband reminds me
that an aerosol bomb or some
type of insecticide spray is es-
Sential.
CHINESE FRIED RICE.
Il. S., Washington
This is a recipe from a

mrs. ". d. J. Washington
I'm pleased to be able to
add something to your helpful
column. In reply to the ques-
ton on electric irons. I would
like to recommend the COM
bination steam or dry iron,
made by a company which
also makes pressure cookers.
This iron. unlike other steam
irons. does not require distilled
water. I've been using one
since I've been married and
like it very much. Ordinary tap
water can be used and that
makes it convenient to use at
any time. even for tiny press

Defense Ace
For Braves

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June %
The Milwaukee Braves, fighting to
regain the top post in the National
League, returned home this week,
with prospects bright for turning
the trick.
The club has the hitting and
pitching needed to grab the lead,
plus a strong defense. Right now
Ed Matthews and Dell Crandall are
the big noise at the plate, but Sid
Gordon, Joe Adcock and Bill Bru-
ton are contributing their share of
blows.
Bruton, the centerfielder, up for
his first year in the majors. He's
the lad, and don't make any mis-
take about it, who runs the out
field both literally and figuratively.
One of the fastest men in base
ball, it's not unlikely that he's cut
off more potential base hits than
any other outfielder in the league
Without him patrolling. both right
center and left center and averag-
ing at least one circus catch a
game, it's doubtful whether the
resurgent Andy Pafko and Gordon
would be as effective.
And Jim Pendleton, another
rookie, is getting his chance. Jim
usually takes over in the late in
nings to relieve Gordon and give
the Braves greater defensive

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL)
By FRITZ POLLARD

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL) -
Twentieth Century Fox has Just
finished filming a biographical
picture of the life of Abe Saper-
stein and the Harlem Globe Trot-
tiers" and, as is natural, the short
time allotted to a film can't pos
sibly cover all the facets of full
life and interesting career. How
can a comparatively short film
discuss fully and to complete adj
vantage the diverse happenings of
a persons life? It's like writing
"The Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire" in a ten-page short
story.
I'm wondering if the picture told
of the time when |, Fritz Pollard,
owned a coal office, "The Pollard
Coal Company" in Chicago and the
great Dick Hudson, who had been
a great football star and at the
time was promoter of basketball,

forming an all-colored basketball
team was conceived. Could Dick
Hudson possibly have dreamed at
the time that. a young fellow in his
early twenties, by the name of Abe
Saperstein, who happened to drop
in at the time to see the outstand-
ing athletes that come to see me,
would some day capitalize on his
idea and make an all-Negro basket
ball team the sensation of the
country? At the time Hudson was
having what he probably considered
never-to-be-realized pipe dream.
Hudson took it out of the dream
stage shortly after by persuading
l. j. Faggen to back colored team,
taking Saperstein along with him
as a partner Abe, however, began
playing with the idea of taking
the team on a western tour and,
over some negligible thing, got into
a controversy that severed their
partnership. In their previous deal
ings, Hudson had conceived comic
clownish sort of Negro team, but
had never promoted the scheme.
Saperstein, after the dissolving of
the partnership, jumped at the idea
and formed the original Harlem

one may have suspected. The team
travelled and had a measure of sue

with pepperings of disappointment
and heartaches. They often starved,

we're connived out of money, had

which they called THE Famous
Globe Trotters." Abe then met

when they came to a parting of the
ways, Saperstein induced some of
the stars of the team to join him
and form what we know today as
the Harlem Globe Trotters."
We give Abe all the credit in the
world for taking what was just
gimmick and a novelty-a colored
team-and working it into an or
ganization that is world-famous

for showing the foresight in seeing
the possibilities of such a team.
What we want to gently admon-
ish him against is his apparent
forgetfulness in not giving some of
the old-timers who stood by him
in the rough years, share of his
success. There is an army of play
ers, now too old, and associates in
general, that are doing everything
from selling insurance to digging
bitches, that Abe could offer jobs
to.
