SPORTS
ROUNDUP
(By Hugh Fullerton, Jr.)
NEW YORK, </P) — The other
day Ted (Barefoot Boy) Schroeder,
who may have been bidding fare
well to big time tennis in that stir
ring Davis Cup tussle with Dinny
Pails, pointed out that there aren’t
very many good youngsters com
ing along to replace him and Jake
Kramer on the Davis Cup team.
. . . “When we speak of ‘Kids’ we
don’t mean the same thing as you
do,” Ted explained. “I don’t mean
Tom Brown, who is 26. or Bob
Falkenburg. who is 21. . . . I’m
thinking of a few years ago when
a half dozen of the ranking jun
iors also were in the first ten in
the California senior rankings. . . .
There’s Herbie Flam, but I’m
afraid he will be restricted by his
style.” . . . From here, it doesn’t
look too tough for the next year or
two with Brown, probably Gar
Mulloy, Falkenburg, Eddie Moy
lan, Bic Seizas and Jim Brink still
around. By that time, maybe
Buddy Behrens, Hugh Stewart,
Dick Mouldeous, A1 Netzek, Tony
Trabert, Gil Bogley, Jerry de
Witts and Pancho Gonzales will
be ready for international play . . .
Of course, only three of these
Girl Scout News
(June Dunbar, Troop Scribe)
On August 28 we had a marsh
mallow roast for our parents. It
was enjoyed although it was a bit
windy.
We studied the life of a cater
pillar and drew a picture of our
pet caterpillar, “Hoimen.”
Saturday, as we were cooking an
outdoor meal of bread twists, fried
potatoes, cake and cocoa, we saw
a formation of about 400 cranes.
Then in the evening we ended our
last supper with fried chicken.
! We were very much thrilled SaL
: urday evening when Hank Miller
i came out in his plane and dropped
j candy bars attached to little para
: chutes.
1 At our last campfire each girl
wrote a wish for the next year's
campers on a piece of paper. The
wishes were read and then placed
in a can with an ember from the
fire. At the beginning of the next
season, when the first campfire is
lighted, the charred wood will be
added to the fire while the wishes
are read.
Sunday we broke camp for an
other year of wonderful camping.
youngsters are Californians. May
be that’s what Schroeder was
talking about.

i Men To Lose
! Pants - - To Fashion
Designer Says
NEW YORK, (JP>—Men’s ankles
are about to fiave their day in the
sun.
With women’s legs and ankles
losing the battle against the longer
skirt, mens’ fashion designers have
decreed the male ankle will come
out from under. Men’s trousers,
they say, will be at least two
inches shorter.
Tony Williams, fashion arbiter
for the annual list of best dressed
men, warned gloomily that the
way things are going, men will be
lucky if they have any pants left
at all.
“The shorter trouser with cuff
will barely touch the top of the1
shoe,” he said.
A spokesman for a chain of
men’s clothing shops said pants on
eastern university campuses will
barely meet the top of the sock,
but every customer is encouraged
to decide the most becoming
length for himself. After all, it is
very simple to turn up a hem.”
The men themselves noted the
new decree with mingled emotion.
Lanky motion picture star Jim
my Stewart said, “Doesn’t make
1 much difference to me. My pants
l always run up my legs anyhow.”

stantly commented that the pattern
established by this action, or re
quiring supervisory inspection and
control of the use of the isotopes
(tracers), is notable.
“It not only removes the studies
from the possibilities of explota
tion for military purposes, but it I
should set up. by usage in a com-j
mon enterprise, familiarity with;
benevolent, forward-looking con
trol. This should greatly advance
international thought and work
in the field of atomic energy.”
President Truman expressed
hope that “the open, impartial and
truly international character of
medical research will carry over
into the realm of other problems
of world concern."
At Oak Ridge, Tenn„ the AEC
said it would begin as soon as pos
sible to fqlfill several foreign re
quests for the radio-isotopes.
It announced that Russia was
among 24 other countries which
had inquired about the tracer
atoms but that these nations had
| not filed specific requests so far.
