At the same time S. L. John, Jr.

young Johnson managed to place
second in the county.
These two places will add thir-

changes will probably be made
from time to time, and the first
of these find Coach M. V. David-
son shifting 190 pound Jim Cave
from fullback to tackle and Edward
Rosprim from tackle to end. Cave’s
size will be of use in the tackle
slot and the speed and blocking
ability of Rosprim will be used at
an end post. Glen Richter has been
showing up well in the backfield
and at one of the wings.

will continue throughout the week.
Due to some changes in the 19-
year rule that was used last year,
a continuation of the rules would
net help the locals to any great
extent. If the vote goes one way
the Lions will lose Doyle Andrews
and Jim Cave, gaining Vernon
Muirhead, Jack Tackett, Jack Pur-

But either way the ruling goes, the
results will be about the same,

of the republican presidential can-
didates and party leaders, (Lan-
don, Knox, McNary, Joe Martin,
Taft, Vandenberg), but there still
is no great love lost between him
and his republican predecessor, Mr.
Herbert Hoover.
Some time ago, Robert R. Gros,
young democrat leader from Palo
Alto, Cal., went to see the presi-
dent, and Roosevelt, knowing Gros
came from Hoover’s home town,
asked how the ex-president was.
“Oh, we’re keeping him under
control,” replied Gros.
“Oh no, you’re not,” shot back
the president. “You’re letting him
come east too much.”
“Unfit” Navy.
The action of the navy selection
board in retiring eleven outstand-
ing flyers—when the admirals were
wailing on Capitol Hill that there
weren’t enough pilots to man planes
under the expansion program—
was only one example of the in-
comprehensible aberrations of the
navy’s promotion system.
In 1938, Lt. Commander Clar-
ence V. Conlon, age 39, was “passed
over” by the selection board as
unfit for promotion. Conlon was
then commanding the gunboat
monocacy on the Yangtze river,
coping with Chinese mines and
marauders on the surface and Jap-
anese bombers in the air.
So well did Conlon carry out his
delicate1 mission that on the recom-
mendation of Admiral Harry E.
Yarnell, then commander of the
Asiatic fleet, he was awarded the
Navy Cross for distinguished serv-
ice. Thus it happened that a few
months after the selection board
of brasshats, sitting in Washing-
ton, had ruled him unfit for pro-
motion and thereby marked him
down for retirement, Conlon, 6,000
miles away on the firing line, was
being decorated for “exceptional
personal courage, a high degree of
leadership and signal administra-
tive ability in commanding his ship
under trying circumstances.”
While the anomaly of decorating
for distinguished service a man
was has been “passed over” by the
selection board seemeed strange to
the brasshats, it did to Secretary
Edison. He order a special selection
board to reconsider Conlon’s case.
This time Conlon was pronounced
“best fitted”. for promotion, and
raised to the rank of commander.
Note: Interrogated about the
navy promotion system by house
committee, Rear Admiral Chester
Nimitz, chief . of the bureau I of
navigation, admitted, “I do not at-
tempt to deny in any way that
competent officers are being re-
tired through the selection sys-
tem.” The committee also brought
out that of 140 officers who had
