i sport in the world is politics i I arrived at this conclusion this morning when I checked in the ! Andrew Jackson hotel here ami iz found it choked from potted palms to pent house with represental tives, here for a special session 1 of the Tennessee state legislature When I first walked in the door ■ I could have sworn that I was in 1 the Nelson House at Poughkeepsie 1 boat race day. the Heidelberg at Baton Rouge after the Tigers had kicked Tulane 23 to 0. or the j Brown in Louisville on derby day You never saw so much fun in ! your life, as,these representatives l of the electorate were having. To | dear their minds, and better serve i 1 the people, they were smoking fifty j cent cigars, pnd. in order to ready ; I their voices for oratory. I suppose. i many of them gargled with a clear I white fluid, drawn straight from I a cork-stoppered bottle. Conver-; 1 sat ion flowed as readily as the I larynx protective. It was easy to see that these statesmen were prepared to serve the public on any | I manner, for they talked on all I matters. Football, the stock market. cock-fighting, the best material for Christmas stockings, the right and wrong of putting vinegar on turnip greens, football, and—j occasionally -the unit voting plan 1 which they had been summoned to rule on. ' Everyone was happy. Just as everyone always is at political gatherings. I am not a political, journalist, and never will be I guess, because I just can't wear' spats and carry a cane. Spats .itch my ankles and I don't know: : what to do with a cane unless ■ ‘ there is a picket fence handy to I rat-a-tat-tat it on. But I have cov-! ered a few national conventions * ■ and joy reigns supreme, if you will I pardon a quick bit of phrase turn- ’ ling. Now you take a caucus, for example. Athletes never have !

Not seriously, anyway Occasionally one will trip over one of his own promises and bruise a shin, but such instances 1 are rare. Take the legislators who now are making my hotel so-so — 1 so-well. so vibrant, let us say—that I long for the quiet and peace of the American Legion in convention All they have to worry about is a voting bill which, in one way and another, will affect national affairs for years to come. They i take that right in stride. Even the presence of two United States senators. here to argue on opposite sides of the question, is not enough ! to stop the boys from having their children’s hour every with their games of squat tag. drop the handkerchief, and pin the tail on donkey. • I hadn't been in the hotel long I before I would have offered 10 to 1 that I could pin the tail on twenty donkeys inside five minutes.

BLOWOUT PROOF TIRE EXHIBITED Goodyear Co., Furnishes Startling Demonstration Today Residents of Decatur today witnessed one of the most startling demonstrations of highway safety it hae < ver been their privilege to see. when tires were purposly blown out on ears travelling at high speed. Instead of a bad accident, nothing happened. The demonstrations, arranged by Glen Oswalt local dealer for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., conclusively proved that blowout accidents at high speed need not result in accident, but that when the car is equipped with Goodyear Lifeguard tubes, the driver can bring the car to a safe stop, without even a swerve. ' • To cause the blowouts, the car was run over a plate studded with huge railway spikes. Dynamite caps, controlled from inside the ear (without the driver knowning when the bl.avoids were coming) ripping casings wide open, caused blowouts, that would in all piobabf ility have resulted in serious -accident with ordinary tubes. The Lifeguard tube is an ingenius arrangement, a tire within a tube, which percents all of the air escaping when a blowout occurs. According to hundreds of unsolicited testimonial letters received at (i .idyear’s main office in Akron OhA . the Lifeguard tube is credited with preventing hundreds cf accidents following blowouts t>l high speed, eliminated damage to cars and their occupants. The tube has been hailed by f heads of police and fire departments and safety officials-as being one of the greatest contributions to highway safety in a decade, according to Mr. Oswalt. —o Along The Sidelines | ♦— « Northwestern Evanston. 111..
