wrote many poems for children.
One of the best known poems is
Hiawatha.
Thomas Alva Edison was born
February II, 1847. He was great
inventor Two of the things were
the electric light bulb and the

MONDAY MORNING QUARTERBACK 81
Dorine Turns Tide for Maryland;
Spooner Blooms Lote; CIV Cheered
Navy Senior Moy Solve
Problem at Quarterback
Navy, IS; Air Force, 3.
BY BILL FUCHS
Star stan writer

Lucky is not the word for
Hal Spooner. who today stands
on the threshold Of collegiate
football stardom with only half
q season remaining in which to
make up for lost time.
The odds are that he will
make 1t up-and big-provided
nothing else interfereS.
Spooner, who passed the Air
Force dizzy Saturday afternoon
in Baltimore's Memorial Sta
dium, Is q quarterback in the
fine tradition Of Navy signal
tcallerS.
Navy's split-T attack requires
q quarterback who can operate
with facility and deception and
who can pass expertly. The
Middies have been blessed in
recent years with the likes of
George Welsh. Tom ForreStal,
Joe Tranchini and Jim Max
field.
But Tranchini and Maxfield
came along at the same time,
and just one year behind was
Spooner. Result: Spooner rode
the bench as q sophomore, and
last year he played o total Of
only "a minutes.
Delayed by Injury
This was to be the Spooner's
year, but he suffered a leg in
jury before the start Of the sea-
son, and little Harry Dietz, up
from the 150-pound team, had
to take over. Dietz has done
well. A shoulder injury handi-
capped him against the Falcons,
but II he and Spooner both get
fit. Coach Wayne Hardin'S big
|geSt problem will cease to be q
problem at all.
Spooner got into the opener
against Boston College and
completed six Of nine passes for
SO yards. He reinjured his leg
and sat out the Villanova game,
but he was q standout against
Washington, coming off the
bench to direct q quick touch
down that counted toward q
1914 victory.
But it was against the Fal-
cons that Spooner came into
full bloom. Playing his first
varsity game as q starter, the
6-foot, 170-pound senior from
WilliamSport, Pa, rocked the
Falcons with his high, hard
ones and long. accurate shots.
In leading Navy to its second
touchdown he completed seven
of eight passes. He wound up
with is Of 20 for 16s yards.
The Navy record for pass
competitions in q single game is
18. set by Welsh against Army
in 1855 and tied by Maxfield
against Notre Dame last sea-
son.
Bowl Talk Begins
Navy has improved consider
ably with each passing week,
and the bowl talk has begun.
II the Middies have a good
season and beat Army, they
may well wind up in the Rose
Bowl. which no longer is tied
to the Big Ten. Reason for
thinking along Rose Bowl lines
is that the commissioner of the
Big Five Conference (out-
growth Of the old Pacific Coast
Conference) is Tom Hamilton,
retired Naval Officer and q
former player. coach and ath-
letic director at Navy.

Hunters Aid In Compiling Figures On Polar Bears

The quest for a highly -prized Arctic game trophy, polar bear, is reaching full swing for this season. During March and April many sportsmen, both resident and nonresident, will journey to Barrow, Kotzebue, Pt. Hope, Teller and a few other northwest coast villages to be guided on bear hunts over the Chukchi Sea and Arctic Ocean ice packs, To ensure adequate protection and perpetua- ton of this increasingly valuable animal, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game is undertaking a study of the polar bear.
 Departmental personnel are en- listing the aid of polar bear hun CTS and guides in obtaining in- formation about polar bear. The hunters and guides are furnished printed forms which facilitate the recording of such information as the number, size and sex of polar bears seen, the sex and size of bear taken, and the total number of hours spent flying in search of bear, in addition to other perti- nent observations of bear such as breeding activity, movements and feeding habits. Only through the cooperation of hunters and guides can this information be gathered for the cost of duplicating those hours of bear observations would be prohibitive.

hunters and guides, the number of polar bear harvested by native hunters is determined.
 At the conclusion of the hunt ing season the total harvest of polar bear will be computed. By comparing yearly changes of such indices as the number of bear seen per hour of observation and the average size of bear taken, Fish and Game personnel gain insight into the effects of hunting and the welfare of polar bear. The setting of proper hunting seasons and bag limits essentially depends on that information.

Lost Pair Hike,
 Jump, Paddle In Off Chukchi FlOe

FAIRBANKS, tR = Two men who lived on moose meat sausage and dry biscuits, who slept in ice igloos and drank snow water for a week, were safe in Kot- zebue for the weekend.
 George Baumann, 58, polar bear hunter from Nevada, Mo-, and Lee Holen, 43, Anchorage pilot, were rescued Friday, week after their light plane was forced to land on an ice floe in Chukchi Sea.
 Holen described their ordeal in a telephone interview from Kot- zebue.
 He said they spent their first night sleeping on the wings of the plane, which partially sank through the top layers of the floe. After two days, Holen said, they left because of the ices instability.
 Using a raft fashioned from the planes gas tanks and often leaping from one rotting ice cake to another, the two made it some 30 miles to shore.
 Only their sleeping bags and the snow igloos that protected them at night kept them from freezing in the near-zero temper atures, Holen said.
 Holen said they hiked down the coast toward Kivalina for four days. Thursday night they met a party of Eskimos who took them into Kivalina.
 "We never were discouraged or lost hope" Holen said. "We knew we'd make it, but we were awfully happy to see those Es- kimos and their dog teams"
 It was the second rescue of the week. Max Eastman, hunter from Omak, Wash, and his pilot, War ren Johnson of Anchorage, had accompanied Holen and Baumann in a separte plane. They, too, were forced to land on an ice floe, and were rescued by Air Force helicopter Monday.
 The two hunters, pilot Ward Carroll and G. Stanley Gordon of Anchorage, were killed in the crash of light plane Feb. 19. Their bodies were seen on an ice floe which drifted away. A search for the bodies has been aban- doned.
