Moye than sl3or 000 has been paidtin to the fund bnd collections this month are expected to boost it considerably. With government reArictiops on the use of steel and other malerials prevailing, the Center cannot be built next year, but the directors hope that most of the money pledged will be available when construction work of. thjs nature is permitted. Building of the Community Center will be one of the finest civic projects ever undertaken Inlthis city. ] ; o o- \, Not all the men mentioned in the tax collector scandals are guilty of crime, for many names ar a thrown in for poetical effect. But those who are guilty of chiselling and shakedown tactics should be arrested and prosecuted. The honest American resents the actions of men who violate a sacred trust. If they needed or wanted more money than the federal jobs paid, they should have engaged in’some sort of.business where~a “quick” dollar is obtainable, or gone to Hollywood. The investigation of the tax collecting departments should not be waged merely for political advantage, but with the thought of prosecuttug the guilty, regardless of politics, i . • >, t ' .< Q ° All-American Teams:Selecting All-American football feu ms sometimes seems to be as popular a sport as playing footibali.' Many different lists are compiled by newspapers, magazines, press associations, radio and television coinmeptatars. Naturally the selections vary widely among the lists, and many fans disagree with the choices Which are made. Those who attempt to pick teams make a great effort to be fair, but there ate certain considerations which may prevent their choices from being infallible, and ’ difference! of opinion will always preclude universal agreement that any list is right. Geography and the indisputable axiom that a person can be in ouly one place at one time pre? vent the maker of a list from seeing all of the players who should tor placks on his All-American team. Thus his judgment is often based partly on what he reads or hears front other commentators. A player with a team haying a bad season is not as likely to attract notice as one whose team is. winning most of its games, even though he may be the jbetteri athlete. - v Many sports writers and fans have come to the conclusion that picking All-American teams is a thankless venture. But most fans seem to want to know which players the experts'consider best in each of the positions on a team. As long as people want this they will probably get it. Those who find fault with the selections Should realize the difficulties of picking the teams. If everyone knew which' teams and players Were best, there would be little point in playing the games.’ < £L— Retail Meat Market To Be Opened Friday ■!» A retail meat market will be opened Friday -by H.
