brought along as his guest Bill
Cannon, the captain of the Shaker

pite his small size was a tremen-

Last Tuesday evening, March
26th, before a crowd of more than
102 Exchange Club members, their
wives, Class E players and their
parents, Mr.. Fred Heinlen, basket
ball coach from Shaker Heights
High School, in his hard hitting
talk, stressed the fact that the
most important thing to do is to
give your best to the thing you
are doing now. Basketball is not
the most important by far, but it
is when you are playing the game.
Then it is the most important, at
that time"
He went on to say that anyone
with average ability can become a
good athlete, provided of course,
that he gives his best to his team,

people, the uneducated, who
might be easily swayed. The
government has recently ruled
that all must get some school
ing, and it is after they receive
some education that communism
sometimes sets in.
AS a general rule, the Indian
people appreciate the help they
have received from the United
States, but realize that they will
probably never be able to pay
it back in any way but in raw
supplies that we cannot raise
ourselves.
Finally, when Jonard asked
Mr.. Bokey what he liked best
about the American people, he
answered promptly it was that
they are happy, Joking, a smil-
ing, friendly people, in compar-
ison with his people who are &
more sober race. He has not, as
yet, decided what he likes the
least about Americans, but i;
thinking the matter over.
Bokey is married, has one

being to get Felix (Doc) Blanch-
ard, the All-American fullback,
in shape for an important game
against Notre Dame. Blanchard,
who had been hobbled by a leg
injury, was given the game ball
that day by his mates for his
outstanding performance an d
turned it over to Bevan.
When the 80 Cadets were dis
missed from West Point in the
1851 upheaval over outside help
for examinations-and it was
centered around the football
team-Bevan wrote a letter de-
Tending ''his boys" to The Jour
nal Herald in which he pretty
well summed up the credo of his
life.
"When boys live clean, train
hard, work hard, are conscien-
tious and gentlemen in every
sense of the word, | am 100 per
cent for them and that is the
way l feel about the Army foot
ball." Bevan wrote.
"Army wants athletes because
they are competitors and trained
leaders, and when an athlete can
qualify for the academy, he is
met with open arms because il
is a mans institution"

Zimmerman, Steve Buchanan
and Paul Smiley.
Bevan, who resided in those
days in an apartment in the base
ment of the Steele building,
which stood at Main and Monu-
ment, achieved extraordinary
conditioning of his players.
"We used to have to report on
Sunday afternoon for boxing in
structions," DR.. Sharkey, who
went on to become renowned
athlete at Miami, recalled. And
in the evening we'd have a black
board drill. We scrimmaged
every day in practice except the
day before a game. Then we were
under strict orders to be in bed
by 900 o'clock"
DR.. Hoerner recalled Bevan as
'strict disciplinarian, but also
man responsible for many
changes for the better in the
lives of many boys who played
for him."
After he left Steele, Bevan
coached at Youngstown Rayen
and Toledo Woodward.
In 1884, Daytonian Earl Blaik,
then head coach at Dartmouth,
asked Bevan to train his team
and the partnership turned into
a lasting one. When Blaik, by
then Col. Blaik, was summoned
to West Point to bring Army
football to a sound and power
full level in 1910, Rol went along.
He was honored by the Touch
down club of New York as the
MAN of the Year" in College
Football in 1912.
Rol trained the Cadets again
last fall and as was his custom,
would return to his rural home
near Waynesville, to pass the
winter and wait for another foot
ball season. He was a familiar
spectator at winter sports in the
Dayton area and as a speaker.
Bevan was credited with many
conditioning miracles at "The
Point One of the most notable

mately ten-inch loaf can be pur-
chased for about 8 cents. No
beef is eaten, as it is not the
custom of the Hindu religion,
and the main meats are chicken,
lamb, mutton, and occasionally
wild boar if anyone hunts. The
milk of cows, however, is used
for drinking, but the milk of
the water buffalo which is quite
rich in butterfat, is used in the
coffee.
In quite general view of
India, it is understood that it
would be quite hard for Ameri-
cans to imagine the great de-
gree of wealth on one side or
the great degrees of abject pow
erty on the other side. The
wealth of a man is determined
by the number of cars he has,
and some of the wealthy over
there have a hundred or more.
The number of servants is not
particularly significant, as some
persons will go into servitude
for their keep.
AS for the poor, many of them
live in small villages, in huts
made of mud. There is no furni-
ture and the food is prepared on
the floor. Sometimes they must
eat roots in order to exist.
Considering to what degree
Communism has taken a hold
in India, Bokey says that there
is some. Surprisingly enough il
is not in the lower class OF

Herald Sports Editor:
"Rol Bevan was a muscular
little man to whom football and
physical fitness were everything.
Rol, who died yesterday in
Grandview hospital at the age of
SO, achieved national fame as
trainer for the West Point foot
ball team, a post he had held
since 1910.
But here in Dayton, his adop-
ted home, he left a memorable
imprint on the lives of an older
generation of athletes who play
ed for him when he was coaching
at old Steele high school,
Bevan came to Dayton in 1917
and coached at Steele, a down
town high school and one of two
in Dayton in those years, through
the 1924 season.
Records of those days are now
somewhat obscure, but Bevan's
teams were powerhouses and the
most impressive in Dayton his
tory.
His teams were undefeated in
regular season play through 1919
to 1923. In addition to a schedule
of schools in Ohio, Bevan sched-
uled postseason intersectional
games with such schools as Oak
Park, ILL.,, Duval high of Jack
sonville, Fla, and in 1923 chal-
lenged Clayborn, Tex, champ
ions of the Lone Star state.
