Baltimore athletes made it a complete triumph when the Dou glass High School squad proved itself the class of the secondary school division. A lai^e crowd trekked to Arm strong Field to see nine college and 10 high school squads, liiUm- bering close to 300 athletes, eoni- pete for the piwious medals, pla ques, and trophies. Loyanda of Lincoln won the collegi*te high jump with a mark of six feet and Thomas of M»- gan, Ray of A and T and Mur- rill of Viifginia State^ ^lae« in that order. t The collegiate broad jnmp was won by Qarrieon of Moi^n. who tied with Grice of Hampton with a jun^ of 22 feet and thr«e and 3-4 inches but on the toss. Thriller of the d*y w»s the amaaing victory of Hurt of Mor gan in the two mile run, who came from third place ittches bt- f ore the finish tape to spurt a- cro«s in 10 minutes 27.3 secondsi. No records were broken, but the best consistent* running was done by Morgan. Virginia State, winner last year by half a point over Haa»pton Institute, was fourth, following North Carolina i A and T and the Pirates dropped down to sixth i^ace after losing last year’s record breaking team by graduation. BordentoWn of New Jersey placed Hecond in the acholastic meet and gave the winners from Baltimore a clorer battle than did their big brothers on the college squads. Howard P. Drew, one of the immortals of racing who repre- presettted America in the Olym pics b^ore the last war, was starter and referee and Benny Washington, veteran official, was on hand as he ha« been for every CIAA meet in hif»tory. Speculations to where “Joe” is going to stay on his meorable visit to the capital i» giving to rise to much gosspi. It is known that he is going to train at the Riverside stadium, a former lily- white institution which holds some five or six thousand folk. With the champion already in own ready to begin his training, the entu*e sports fans, especially in the field of boxing, are wait ing an qjportunity to get a gand er at Louis in action in the ring with his sparring partners, This is going to be an “all-out’ sports event for Washington, Marylafed and Vii^inia, and even ft-om other spots further South. And Washington is eating it up, hook line and linker and there will be plenty of betting that Joe will take the litte Baer before the end of the allotfced tim«.

Jefferson City, Mo. — Lincoln University’s three year reign as track champions of the Midwest Conference will come ia for a severe testing at the annual con ference meeting at the Tigers in stitution, > May 16-17. Wilberfwce, Kentucky State, and West Virginia^ who have been set down one after another in previouFj years, are gunning for tliis encounter, according to in dications from these campuaes. Several of these schools have al ready engaged in dual and triple meet?( with strong competing schools.

Sy oi M/lMmtON Money Saved By Storing Winter Clothes Carefully Farm women are reminded by Miss Willie Hunter, Extension clothing specialist of State Coll ege, that careful storage of win ter clothing will reduce expenses next fall. “A coat, a dress, a sweater, or other articles of clothing can easily be “ruined in one warm weather period by moths and other insects,” she declared. A ound of napthalene or para- dischlorobenzene crystals, scatter ed between thin layers of paper and placed at intervals in the clothii^ in a tight box or trunk wiiy dstroy anay insetcs that may bw present, Miss Hunter saj-B. T|le chemicals are ^jually as effective for control of clothes moths and carpet beetles. All articles to be stored should f irst be thorou^ly cleaned, brush ed, aired and sunned to get rid of any stray eggs or larvae of the insets. In a closet that is kept tightly closed, a pouncT of either chemical to about 100 feet of loset space prevents infestation The larvae of the insect causes damage to clothing and furnish ing containing wool hair, brist les, fur, feathers and other ani mal substances. The Extension specialist sayg is easier to prevent carpet beet les and other insets than to kill them after they have infested a room or closet. In the routine of good hou,‘'ekeeping, " rugs should 1>e cleaned frequently on both sides to get rid of carj>et beetles. Filling floor cra«ks with a good filler eliminates hiding places and maker, housekeeping simpler. “An article clothing pro perly stored means money sav ed,” Miss Hunter declared, ‘and with living costs mounting be cause of the Defense Program it is important that eve^'Hollar be saved in bo^ the rural and the urban home.
