weighing ceremonies.
On his arrival Saturday john
son tipped the scales at 165
pounds, 5 over the limit, and
the coaches had to pare him
down to the required 100 pounds
before he could become eligible
to compete. Johnson spent con-
siderable time in the Catholic
Youth Organizations steam
room here yesterday before he
finally made the weight.
After he made the weight,
johnson was taken in hand i'm
mediately by the coaches for a
rebuilding job designed to re-
gain the strength he lost in the
matchmaking process. johnson
is held in great respect by the
four coaches who are handling
the Washington team-Head
Coach Paddy Kane, Glen Drake,
Ken Stribling and James (Pop)
Whitney. All consider him to
be one of the finest middle
weights in Eastern amateur
ranks, but were concerned today
about yesterdays weight-making
which they feel may weaken
him for the long haul ahead.
Evening teams will start the
trace for the team title tonight.
They are New York. Washington,

NOTES - The Raleigh News
and Observer carried an edi-
torial last week boosting the
tournament, but at the same
time asking how about more
homegrown talent in the Big
Four schools. Most of their stars
are from New York, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. =. There was
more talk about moving the
tournament to Charlotte or Col
lege Park, but that will die out
as soon as the officials see the
net receipts, which will be a
record.
Coach Male of Virginia said
there's too much talk about big
men dominating basketball. He
pointed out that the tournament
finaliSts were the teams with the
two best guards. The ACC
crowned three more 1856 cham
pionS over the week end and
Maryland finally lost. The Terps,
who had won football, soccer,
cross-country and indoor track,
added wrestling, but lost basket
ball and swimming.

Virginia figures to take the
biggest leap upward and Cham
pion North Carolina State the
biggest drop in Atlantic Coast
Conference basketball next sea
son.
That was the thinking in
Raleigh. N. c.. following the
tournament which N. C. State
won for the third time in the
s. year old conference. The
Wolfpack beat Wake Forest
1864, for the title.
However, almost everybody
predicted Frank McGuire's New
Workers, representing the Uni
versity of North Carolina, would
succeed State as the ACC cham
pion.
The Tar Heels tied State for
first in the regular season chase
this year and lost to Wake
Forest in the semifinals. Next
season Carolina has Len Rosen-
bluth back, plus 6-foot-S Joe
Quigg and 6-foot-6 Pete Bren-
nan from this years starters,
and 1t picks up terrific fresh
man talent. The upcoming
sophomores include Bill Hath
away, 6-foot-11, and two back
court men, something the Tar
Heels lacked this year.
Virginia had it's best freshman
team in history-big, talented
youngsters who will be steadied
by the Cavaliers clever back
court man. Bill Miller. Coach
Bus Male losses Bob McCarty
the high scorer, and Center
Austin Pearre, but has every
body else back to go with the
freshman team.
Male said he was going to win
some ball games from Carolina S
Big Four next year. He said he
was tired of the inferiority COM
pick the other teams in the ACC
seemed to have in playing the
Big Four teams.
N. c. State loses four regulars,
all but John Maglio, and unless
Coach Everett Case is a miracle
man the Wolfpack probably will
lose more conference games next
year than ever before.

jectS who had proved they could
maintain their weight on 1000
Galleries a day with normal diet
DR.. Kekwick boosted their intake
to $500, which normally would
have caused weight increases
but changed the diet content in
protein and fat.
On high fat and on high pro-
tein diets, all but one subject
lost weight.
This is not surprising as re-
CARDS protein, whose specific
dynamic action has long been
recognized" wrote DR.. Kekwick
1T is, however, surprising as
regards fat. whose action in this
respect seems to be even greater
than that of protein"
He concluded that the only
reasonable explanation is that
fat and protein increase the
obese persons capacity to burn
up or expend calories while a de-
Grease in capacity is brought
about by carbohydrates.

To Grow Lean, Eat Fat,

That's a possibility suggested
by DR.. Alan Kekwick, professor
of medicine at the University of

DR.. Kekwick ran three series
of tests at London's Middlesex
Hospital. All of his subjects
were more than IS per cent over

The first series used fixed
diet of 20 per cent protein, SO
per cent fat and AZ per cent

seven to nine days, the subjects

A WORD
TO THE WISE
BY MRS. FRANK COLBY

The secret of good writing,
said the great Anatole France,
is. First. clarity; next, clarity;
and finally, clarity"
For some time writers, stu
dents and teachers have been
urged by this modest column to-
regard clearness of expression as
being of far greater Importance
than the h-airsplittings of gram
mar, or the desire to write "ele-
gantly."
Many competent and seasoned
writer's suffer from "with-itis"-
an occupational disease which
places the simple proposition
with" after the nouns, produc-
ing such loony logics as this one
from a current issue of a ma
tional magazine: g. the creepy
old handy man, whetting a.
scythe with gloves on"
In a current whodunit, the au-
thor develops with-itis on the
very first page: q. she was the
widow of an old coot with
whiskers named Jasper Muir
dock" And in the same story:
a.. :. she had a wide. cool mouth,
with dark hair parted loosely in
the middle"
Well, of course it does chal-
lenge the imagination to read Of
such phenomena as scythes with
gloves on, whiskers named Jas
per Murdoch, and cool mouths
with dark hair parted in the
middle, even though the pictures
they produce are nightmarish.
Note what with-itis does to
this new item: Mrs. B was
injured in a collision of an am
bulance in which she was riding
with an Army truck"
But with-itis is not always the
cause of murky writing: faulty
reference often produces looniesI
such as this in radio CONNER
cial: THE Blank Company has
rs years Of making suits behind
them"
And then, there is the Boulder
society column which reported:

The safe return, the easy re-
turn, was the queen Of clubs.
Many players would make. that
return without thought. It can
not fool your partner. 1t cannot
close" anything.
1t is also true, however, that
It cannot set the contract.
Mr.. Masters did not return
the queen Of clubs. He thought
q few moments and then chose
q lead which looked extremely
dangerous but was the only lead
to beat the hand.
Here was his reasoning: If
Miss Brash had a sure spade
winner and the ace Of diamonds,
the defenders would win four
tricks automatically-one trick
in each suit. But it was very I'M
likely that she had both of these
winners.
On the other hand, it was
fairly likely that she had one
or the other. If so, there was a
chance for success but it would
be necessary to win two heart
tricks and those heart tricks had
to be won before Mr.. Champion
had an opportunity to pick up
the outstanding trumps and
set up dummy's diamond suit.
Mr.. Masters figured the hand
could be set if Miss Brash had
either of the winners named
above, plus the queen of hearts.
His lead, then, at the second
trick was the deuce of hearts.
Miss BraSh played her queen
and Mr.. Champion had no better
splay than to win with dummy's
king. He sensed the true situa-
ton and, in an effort to shut out
Miss Brash in case she held the
lone king of trumpS, he refused
the spade f1nesse and went up
with the ace. He could afford to
lose to the king Of spades in Mr..
Masters hand because dummy's
guarded jack Of hearts would
hold the losers in that suit to
one.
But it was no good. Miss Brash
won the second spade and her
heart return through dummy's
jack up to Mr.. Masters ace-10
put the contract down one.
