wide margins-in GW's home
coming at Griffith Stadium to-

but tied last week by William &
Mary. TT. hopes to regain the
scoring punch that led to big
early-season successes and raised
it to place among the country's
leading teams in the Associated
Press poll,
VPI is enjoying by far its best
season in many years, while CIV
is having one of it's most disap-

this is the time TO break GW's

VPI last won in this series back

81 Honors Due
Fisherman if He
Takes Special
Arcoro's Riding Skill
Defeated Bunussu
In International

Fisherman, G.. ". Sonny
Whitney's game little brown
colt, munched an extra ration Of
oats today for his sparkling vic
tory in yesterdays Washington,
D. c., International at Laurel,
but his owner and Trainer Syl
Veitch undoubtedly had their
eyes on the Pimlico Special COM
ing up November 20 at the an
cient Baltimore track, which
opens a l5-day meeting today.
Fisherman's triumph under
Eddie Arcaro'S maSterful ride,
the first for an American horse
in three runnings of the tough
112-mile International. clinched
a top rank for the race in the
turf world, in the opinion of
John D. Schapiro, Laurel's presi-
dent. And the Whitney colts
presence in the Special could
make" that race as one Of the
top features Of 1854, particularly
if both Fisherman and William
Helis' Helloscope are starters.
There won't be any royal horse
present as there was yesterday
when Queen Elizabeth's Landau
finished last after setting the
early pace. But, if anything, the
Special has a potential lineup
even more attractive for Ameri-
can spectators than the Interna-
tional, involving, as it does, keen
rivalries among horses and riders
with whom the public is thor
oughly familiar. It could be the
perfect climax for a year of
racing with spectacular ups and
downs.
Determine a Possibility.
Twelve of the best 3-year-olds
of the season, including the win
ners Of the Triple Crown races,
have been invited to run in the
18th running Of the $4,000 Spe-
cial. The list includes Andrew j.
Crevolin's Determine, winner of
the Kentucky Derby, who had to
decline an invitation to yeSter-
days international because of a
slight training injury, but is back
in training and may be ready
by November 20.
Also invited Is King Ranch'S
High Gun, whom Fisherman re-
placed in yesterdays race after
the former wrenched his hip in
his final serious prep for the
classic. High Gun holds three
decisions over Fisherman, one
by a neck in the Belmont Stakes,
and had been regarded as the
leading candidate for this years
3-year-old crown. So Fisherman's
handlers undoubtedly would
welcome another crack at him.

Earle Edwards, new coach at
North Carolina State, says the
Wolfpack is capable of giving
Maryland an interesting game,
but that Maryland has his team
outmanned.
It may be game time Satur-
day before Coach Tatum names
either Charley Boxold or Frank
Tamburello to the starting quar-
terback job. Boxold's shoulder
is better but 1t still bothers him
In raising his arm.
There are cut offs on the new

a few minutes for people from

An Editorial
About Coffee

The AVERAGE CITIZEN Oh the
United States enjoys his coffee to
the tune of II pounds per year
the largest per capita consumption
of coffee in the world This country
now imports two-thirds of all the
worlds exportable coffee more
than 21a billion pounds of it.
Who first tasted coffee? Coffee
trees have grown wild in Abyssinia
and Arabia for many centuries. The
coffee bean served these countries
as food in ancient time, and in
few remote places still does so to-
day, for it contains good proper
ton of protein. It's stimulating
known, for food balls of ground
coffee and fat were among the
rations issued to warriors before
battle. However, the first estab-
1ished reference to coffee as bever-
age was by Avicenna, the great
Arabian philosopher and physician
who wrote of it in the year 1000
AID. as 'bunc" the name by which
it is still known in Abyssinia.
Four hundred years after this,
coffee had become the great bever-
age of the Arab countries, aided by
the fact that Moslems are forbidden
alcohol. In the 18th century the
tide of Islamic expansion carried
the Moslem warriors and their coffee
through Serbia, Bosnia, Hungary
and Bulgaria to the gates of Vienna.
Later, as the power of Islam faded,
the armies ebbed back to the East,
but the coffee habit remained with
the populations of the countries in
which they had been.
In the 16OO's, coffee began to
reach western Europe by a variety
of routes. 1t was popularized by
travellers and visiting potentates
and its use assured by supplies
brought back from the East by
merchant men of Holland, France
and Britain.
1t takes five years to bring seed
ling through to production, and
even then the average tree yields
only $500 berries or one pound of
roasted coffee. One cause of the
shortage and consequent high price
now is that growers did not plant
enough trees in 1913 and 1949. In
the five-year span from planting tc
harvesting, disasters like erosion
frost, too much or too little rair
and the much dreaded pest, the
broca, can intervene to ruin whole
plantations before the trees mature
to height of to IL feet, resplend
ent in white flowers and greer
berries that ripen to a deep maroon
The effect and presence of tn
much maligned caffeine might hav,
a word. In the amounts found il
cup or two of coffee, caffeine pro
duces a feeling of well being ant
mental alertness. It is a true stimu
liant not followed by despondenc
or depression. 1t is not recon
mended for children-not becaus
it is harmful but that it might dis
place beverages of which childre
stand in greater need and becaus
children do not require extra slim
ulation.
Coffee is apparently one of tn
mainstays of our civilization-AM

Mrs. Sid Hendrix ueft) and Mrs.
Dwight Smith Sr. admire the first aid
sign which now hangs outside Stoner's
store in Lincoln. 1t took nearly three
years of urging and work to get enough
women trained who are qualified TO
give first aid treatment and TO get the
station installed. But you won't find
anyone in the Lincoln Home Demon
station Club who says it wasn't worth

emergency was declared.
The Government already has
authority to allocate raw ma
terials and to limit business in
ventories and exports.
Question-What about ration
ing?
AnSwer-More than 20 million
ration books are ready for print
ing and at the Presidents signal,
billions of ration coupons would
start rolling off the presses.
Question-Is the Government
boarding currency?
AnsWer-This is an unin-
formed exaegeration. For a long
time the Government has been
accommodating old currency for
use in case war interfereS with
printing of new money. This is
strictly safety measure.
Question-Will this Congress
be asked to vote new controls?
Answer-If the Asian Situa-
ton continues to deteriorate, the
odds are the administration will
ask for some freeze" powers
much as it detests the thought.
It's not definite, but it's more
than idle rumor.
Question - What controls

Washington is preparing to be
