The big game of the Mar-Del

FELTON,, played on the FELTON, dia-
mond, was won by Frederica, 8 to
a.
Bobby Knight pitched for Fred
erica and pitched masterful ball and
was well supported by the team on
the defense as we'll as on the Of
Tense. Our boys did some grand
hitting with IA hits. The feature
hit by the home team was by M.
Brown, it being a home run. This
game put Frederick in a tie for
first place. Frederick would be in
first place, except having to forfeit
one game to Ridge1y, so our team is
winning the hard way, but we have
a ~reat ball club and we will do
our best. Next game on the Fred

Though the American collection in

sentative. the most outstanding thing
about the gallery is the collection of
Oriental and Middle Eastern art.
The gallery owns one of the most
valuable libraries in the world devoted
exclusively to Oriental and Middle
Eastern art and archaeology.
Part of Mr.. Freers interest in the
art of the East probably was directly
stimulated by Whistler. Whistler's art
itself was greatly influenced by his dis
covery of the japanese and Chinese
color print as an art form in the early
1860s. Both the Japanese and the
Chinese had developed painting into
highly stylized art form, consisting

The truth, Jones believes, is far
otherwise.
The truth, as he sees it. is that the
world is now in what Toynbee chooses
to call time Of stress.
What makes it is complex subject,
so dificult to point out that the aver
age man, who asks nothing better
than to be let alone (the last thing
he gets, any more) cannot do anything
but register a general protest.
Some guys do it. evidently, by getting
soused. others by getting into nights,
etc.
Some just deflantly button their col
lars and forget the tie.
Jones says he Is going to stick to

It has held his chin up and his neck

it is an old friend.
Why should man go back on his

Story Behind Oneof Our Art Galleries
By jack VoeIpeI

CTANDNNG ALONE and aloof from
~ the limestone and marble buildings
which surround it in the Mall area
is simple, squat, square building Of
Florentine design on the northeast
corner Of Twelfth street and Independ-
ence avenue. The building is a testi-
monial ia the fact that the Horatio
Alger legend IS not altogether fiction.
The building is the Freer Gallery Of
Art, branch of the Smithsonian In
stitution. Every month an average Of
5000 people visit the gallery and en-
Joy the unusual collection Charles
Lang Freer Of Detroit made available
to them. The gallery houses not only
q fine group of American paintings by
such artists as James McNeill Whist
ler, Winslows Homer. and John Singer
Sargent, but also has one Of the finest
collections In the world Of Oriental
paintings and other objects Of art from
China. Japan, Korea, India. 1ndo-
China, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Asia Minor,
Byzantium. and Egypt.
The life. of Charles Lang Freer is
the typical American success story Of
the poor boy who made good. Born
in kingston, N. Y. in 1856. Mr.. Freer
had to leave school at IA. He first
worked in a cement factory In his
neighborhood and at 16 became a
clerk in a general store. Col. Frank
j. Hecker, superintendent Of the New
York, Kingston and Syracuse Rail-
road, whose offices were in the same
building as the general store, be-
came aware of the ability Of young
Freer and in 1873 employed him. After
several years of railroad work, Freer
went with Col Hecker to Detroit,
where, in 1880, he took part in the
organization of the Peninsular Car
Works and became assistant treasurer.
Between 1880 and 1900. Mr.. Freer was
associated with this company and with
those which succeeded it. In 1900, at
the age of A, after completing his
work in the organization Of the Ameri-
can Car and Foundry Co.. he retired
from active business. From 1900 until
the time Of his death In 1919, Mr.. Freer
pursued on full-time basis an interest
which he had begun in the early 1880S,
the study Of art.
Untutored and unschooled in art, Mr..
Freer began acquiring etchingS and
Autographs. This led to a meeting in
1888 with James McNeill Whistler.
Whistler, then 81, and still struggling
for recognition, was eventually Spon-
sored by Mr.. Freer, who learned from
this association not only about the

primarily Of the delineation Of forms in
relation to objects, the arrangement Of
forms, the elimination Of the extrane-
Gus, and the application Of colorS in
soft, subtle manner SO that the paint
ing would have pleasing" effect.
Shortly after Mr.. Freer died in 1919,
his collection was transferred to the
gallery, for which he had previously
provided building funds in 1914. He
also provided funds for new purchases.
but Congress agreed to pay for the
maintenance and upkeep Of the collec-
ton.
By terms of his will, the F'reer Gal
lery cannot accept gifts or loans from
outsiders, and can add to the collections
only through purchase by funds left
to the institution by Mr.. Freer. There
are items in the collection which were
not originally purchased by Mr.. Freer,
but which qualify for the collection be-
cause they were given as gifts to Mr..
Freer personally.
Actually. only about eight per cent
of the total collection is on display at
any one time, but these always repre-
sent the highest quality Of the particu-
lar object exhibited. Many of the
Stored items are considered by the gal
lery to be Of research and study value
only and consequently never are ex-
hibited.

AS a voter and landowner in Mont
gomery County. Maryland, believe
this letter will be Of interest to other
county citizens. In view Of the coming
elections here. there are. in my opinion,
several very important questions that
should be answered. It is my UNDER
standing that Montgomery County Is
among the top counties in Maryland
when it comes to wealth per family,
but, to this voters mind and in con-
sideration of this factor. there are
several matters that just don't add up.
For the last few years I've been actively
engaged in promotion of traffic safety,
both in the county and throughout the
State, for several civic associations, and
there's one question that seems to take
an act of Congress to get settled. That
question is when is the County Council
going to correct the bad situation con-
cerning our underpaid and overworked
policemen? After a little investigation
of my own. have found out our county
policemen are Still working very hard

The real issue of the Guatemalan crisis was
summed up, but unfortunately not resolved,
when Ambassador Lodge angrily warned the
Russian delegate to the Security Council to "stay
out Of the Western hemisphere. Don't try to
start your plans and conspiracies here"
Forw what is happening in Guatemala today
is merely another chapter, and one that has
been foreSeeable in recent months, in Commu-
mist design to establish a beachhead in the
Americas. The makeup of the Arbenz govern
ment and its behavior in the American COM
munity have shown clearly enough its close
relationship to the Communist cause and Mr..
Lodges questions were rhetorical only when he
asked the Council what could be the interest Of
the Soviet representative in vetoing the pro-
poSal that the Guatemalan problem be referred
to the Organization of American States. For the
OAS, as Delegate Tsarapkin knows, is dedicated
to the objective of protecting the sovereignty,
territorial integrity and independence of the
American nations-an objective obviously in
compatible with Communist international plan
ming.
The OAS, through its fve-member- Inter-
American Peace Committee, will initiate an
exercise of its rightful Jurisdiction in meeting
here today. Meanwhile, it is too early to tell
what effect if any, will result from the Security
Councils call for an end of bloodshed in the
little Central American country. Martial law
has been declared but rebel forces are reported
still moving toward the capital city and there is
some question as to whether the Guatemalan
Army is strongly inclined to fight for the Arbenz
government.
Whatever the immediate developments
American diplomacy is being finely tested. AL
though the record shows close bonds among the
governments of this hemisphere there are strong
spots of anti-Yankee feeling. Anti United
States demonstrations, probably Communist
organized, have been reported from several
American countries over the week end.
Our continuing conduct in the Guatemalan
crisis must be planned carefully lest we walk
into the propaganda trap which Moscow is try
ing to set for us.

The Flying WindmiNs

Another preview of air transport service of
the future is showing in ordinarily staid London
these days with initiation Of helicopter serv-
ice between downtown Waterloo Station and
the London Airport 15h miles away. The fight
is scheduled for % minutes as against slightly
more than an hour by bus.
Neither thinking of nor experimenting with
commercial helicopter service is a new depar-
ture in commercial aviation, of course, but it
is still in pioneering and not fully tested stage
An ninterairport service for passengers is operat-
ing now between Newark, Idlewild and La Guar
dia fields but not into downtown Newark or
New York City. An intercity service between
Newark and upper New York State recently was
initiated and there is another passenger service
between Miami and some of the beach COM
munities. Sabena Airlines (Belgian) has been
a pioneer in Europe with a helicopter network,
tested first on mail and baggage, now carrying
passengers between several European cities.
Safety requirements calling for more than
single-engine craft-and sufficient capacity to
make the operation profitable are among the
first considerations being studied by air trans
port interests in this country. Military develop
ment of rotary-wing aircraft probably has con-
tributed much toward progress in this field. It
seems reasonable to predict that the rotary
wing type some day will provide the answers:
ID For shutting passengers from downtown to
distant airports and CD for short-haul inter-
city travel by air. The London experiment
should provide some interesting information on
the nrst type Of operation. sa. .5
