all for Howe, stand up and—HOLLER!" .. Howe High School rooters stood up and gave the four comely cheerleaders what they wanted. = Why not? The Hornets were undefeated and the game with Washington might be a little rough, but victory was in the air. After the first yell of the afternoon ‘the four Howe cheerleaders beamed with that ol’ spirit— ~Virginia (Kiki) Eubank, Marji LaRue, Carol Schneider and Winona (Winnie) Locklear got into a huddle and decided the crowd was extra responsive, I startled the huddle by asking, “How do you know?” ] Kiki Eubank (she claims no one calls her Virginia) said she could feel the crowd's mood. Her three cheermates said, Kiki was right. A cheerleader feels what the crowd wants and when they want it. “Do you mind if I sorta hang around here and gee for mysell how you gals feel the pulsebeat of the rooters?” No; they didn't mind, The only stipulation was that I had to yed for Howe, This game was important, Winnie said. The team was fighting for an undefeated season, because this was the 10th anni-’ versary of Howe High School.
Up and at 'Em, Girls : CAROL SCHNEIDER suggested the ®Nick~Nack” yell. The girls thought that was an excellent idea. 1 went along as far as “Allaca-nick-a-nack-a-nook.” Dear ol’ Howe had to get along without me. Ym a “Hold that line” or “We want a touchdown” man " Marji LaRue plopped on the. grass and said, “I wish IT hadn't eaten so many ’pples.” Before I could ask how, many apples she / had eaten the girls were up on ‘their feet wringing " big “Hello, T from the crowd. They followed up with “Hello, Washington.” Kickoff time was near. Howe was to receive, My ears were already ringing from the din behind me" and the higher- pitched shrieks of the cheerleaders. “Aren't you girls afraid of getting hoarse?” “We never get hoarse,” Carol screamed- as she urged on the 11 stalwarts on the field. “We just lose our voices.” Oh: The kickoff. Howe was on the march. But the fortunes of football turn fast. A bad punt and Washington had the ball on their 48, ~~ ~Apparently the crowd wanted that line held. The girls flailled their arms and strained their lungs. “Hold that line.” Before a good long “razz ma tazz” left my aching pulmonary region I had to switch my brand. “Block that kick.” Dick Lipscomb, Washington halfback, a cad of a fellow according to the girls, went over for six points.
His popularity rating went up a thousandth of a -
point. when he missed the crossbars for the extra
point. : The game Settled down to some bitter muscle
Mr. Chan’s Parties
NEW YORK, Nov. 3--It is with some relief that T am able to report that the Sou Chan birthday dinner is one with history, and that there were no broken bones whatsoever, Severdl times a year the motliest collection of flotsam in New York sits.down to pay homage to Mr, Chan, a remarkable Oriental gentleman who, in addition to being one of nature's noblemen, always picks up the tab for the bandiet. He owns the restaurant. ‘These evenings are filled with quiet culture, scintillating talk and lofty ideals. Up to now no one has ever been hit by a hurled bottle, This was a special milestone in the life of the Bou Chan forum. Mr, Chan, who came from China peor, had arrived at his 30th birthday, and was flouting ancient tradition by giving a party in his own honor, . This, according 0 Confucius, or maybe" Uncle Chan, Sou's. patriarchal foster-father, is all out of line for a Chinese unless he has achieved three things. ‘These are: 50 years of honorable age; five sons who have done nothing to cause the old man to lose face, or the record of weighty contribution to public service. ! In a speech, during which the host dignifiedly refrain®¥ from hurling himself violently backward in appreciation of his own oratory—his usual custom Mr. Chan pointed out that he had none of the abovelisted achievements going for him.
Talented Souls Assemble
“BUT,” HE SAID, “I feel that T am allowed to flout custom because I have so many distinguished friends.” He meant us, and I will tell you who “us” is, or are. For a start there is a celebrated city editor, A man of elfin humor, he is a gréat journalist with one peculiar talent. He is a master at emulating the chirrups of a love-smitten tree frog, a skill that is hard to come by these days. Then there is Mr. Frederick Woltman. a curator of odd acquaintances and co-custodian of Mr, Chan's welfare Mr. Woltman is & connoisseur-of rare old applejack. He is also a speechmaker of skill, under certain conditions, and there is a recording of his most, recent one which” will cause young Stanley Chan, the 3-year-old scioh-of.the house, considerable puzzlement in forthcoming years. However, he will

Walls of Jel Jericho
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3 (UP)-<Let's ponder today the case of the homeless wall. Just a plain plaster wall. 45 feet long and painted baby blue on one side and apple green on ‘the other. In itself of no importanye . +» and yet it may give you some inkling of why pur government is so expensive, On€ of the troubles seems to be too many amateur interior décofators and/or architects on the federal payroll. No matter how many marble halls the government builds for its elerks, in any event, it's always short of desk room.
80 it is that federal agencies have brought their
uniformed guards and air conditioning units to suites in private office buildings all over Washington. The national press building, where I pound my own typewriter on the seventh floor, Jong has rented several pcres of space to the Alien Property Custodian and tie Federal Deposit Insurance Gorp.
Fan Me, Brother
ON THE SIXTH floor, directly below my own swivel chair, the pounding of hammers and the clouds of dust from the cement arriving on the freight elevator lately indicated that something unusual was going on. I sidled down the back fire escape Lo see what was cooking. Boy, fan me with a blue-print! The alien property boss, it turned out, had found space somewhere else and had vacated the entire floor. The deposit boys, whose job it is to pay off the customers of bankrupt banks, decided to expand. Their idea was to bring back some of their clerks from Chicago, where they'd been banished by Washington's war-time crowdedness. The sixth floor layout might have been all right for the alien experts, but it didi didn't suit the bank insurers.

The new corridor had mahogany-colored doors leading into an office room on the other side. “This is the third wall we've put in here,” said a rueful spokesman. “First these government people sald they wanted one big room. So we gave it to 'em., “Then they decided they couldn't use the regular building hallway like other. people. They had to have a private corridor inside. So we put in a new partition to make the corridor. Not any plaster board. either, but solid masenry, Somebody came along and sald 1t wouldn’t do.
