To clear tho skin of pimples or,
as this condition Is designated, of
acne, Is no simple task. Scrupulous
cleanliness and " perserveranco In
treatment are essential to success.

diet and dletlc habits, must be scrut

THIS being Jay, we'd like to drop back through his
tory a few hundred years and see the May-pole which
James II (then the Prince of Wales) caused to be
erected in The Strand, London.
The king wanted a kingly May-pole .'. . a big one!
So the topmost tuft of flowers and ribbons waved from
a shaft ten stories high !
But the part we like best about old May Day customs
was bringing in the hawthorn blossoms. The young
folks did this; starting off "a-Maying" early in the
morning through every country lane, they brought
back enough branches to deck every house in the vill
age. There's something about this Maytime that makes
us long to bring the Spring indoors. Have you thought
yet about crisp ruffled curtains and cool, flower
shaded slip-cover and thin summer rugs, for your own
rooms? A cotton bedspread is new pleasure, and just
slipping your pillows into print and gingham covers
cheers up the indoor atmosphere. Saves fine fabrics
from dust and fading too.
So it's pleasant to change dress indoors for Summer
and thrifty to take advantage of the many special of
fei 'ings in the advertisements. The stores have many
fresh, novel new things for Spring and prices are sur
prisingly low.
IRWIN FINISHES
IN SECOND PLACE
IN LOW HURDLES
La Grande High school's track and
field team closed Its competition for
the ' spring at Corvailis Saturday,
scoring 3 1-9 points in tne staxe meet.
Hughey Irwin, who turned to hurd
ling halfway through the season, fin
ished second In the finals after win
nlng his morning heat In 26.5 sec
onds, three-fifths or a second faster
than tho winning time In the Eastern
Oregon meet here. In which Irwin al
so ran second. Hogensou contributed
tho 1-9 point, tying with eight other
boys for fourth place in tne nigh
Jump. Hoacnson leaped 5 feet 8 In
ches, one of hla best Jumps of the
year.
Walden, Javelin thrower, did better
than he had done at anytime this
spring with a throw of 150 feet, but
It wasn't quite good enough to place,
atitt leaped 10 feet 7 Inches in the
broad Jump, Just short of qualifying.
Other members of the team did well
but simply were outclassed In their
respective events.
Coach Ira Woodle, upon his return
with the team last night, reported
general opposition among the upstate
.coaches agulnst the district scoring
plan, which he said, gave Portland
schools all the best of it. Indications
are that there may be some change
In. this method before next spring.
Washington High of Portland won
the meet with one more point than
Grant High, favored to cop the title.
Orant's relay team was ruled out be
cause of a technical violation, similar
to one that cost Pendleton High the
Eastern Oregon relay victory In La

LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE. ORE.

Unbutton your ears, my friends
and listen to the extraordinary storj
of Francis A. Schmidt, about whom
more will be heard this fall as head
coach of football at Ohio State unl
verslty.
At the outset It Is a bedtime story.
Schmidt, It seems, has a habit of
hanging pad and pencil on a string
tied to the bed bo that he can jot
down gridiron notes as they may
occur to him between snoozes.
"Add a 160-watt bulb to the note
book and pencil and 'Schmlddy' will
be satisfied," writes Johnnie Porter,
sports editor of the Fort Smith (Ark.)
Southwest - Times Record.' "I am
speaking for one who occupied the
same bed with the angular Kansan
for a couple years when Francis was
leading the Arkansas Razorbacks out
of the athletic wilderness."
A Coaching 'Edison'
"That guy la the hardest working
coach; In the United States. Even
the late' Thomas A. Edison man
aged to get In more rest from his
Job than Schmidt, who was unhap
py if he didn't work, at least 18
hours a day. He slept with a pad
and stub pencil under his pillow
and as many as three or four times
a night he snapped out of slumber,
yanked the light cord and Jotted
down something which later was to
cause rival coaches anxious moments.
"He reads every sports Item that
drifts his way and especially Btudies
pictures of athletes In action.
I remember on one occasion he
saw a picture of a Texas high Jump
er clearing the bar at a lair height.
Schmlddy picked out a flaw In the
Jumper's form, told him and the
Texas coach about It (after the con
ference meet was ended)- and the
Jumper (I forget his name) went on
to win the national collegiate title
later that spring."
"There are lots of things of In
terest about this enterprising fellow
who coached a high school team In
Kansas, Henry Kendall college (now
Tulsa university), Arkansas and Texas
Christian before stepping into the
big league, but his versatility is
amazing. .
"He was a star baseball player
and grldder at Nebraska, but never
played baaketbaliw-the 1 sport that
brought him perhapa his greatest
achievement as a coach. He was
awarded an A.B. and LL.D. degree at
Nebraska and later practiced ' law.
While at TulBa he played the 'lead'
cornet In the1 National Shrine band.
He plays a banjo, guitar, violin or
piano ' with equal ease and sings
quite well. '" -
As an achltect he is above the
average and Is an expert In watch
and clock repairing, as well as In
photography. The fellow who wrote
the adage 'Jack of all trades and
master of none' apparently never
heard of Schmidt. He Is good at nil
of 'em. Oh, yeah, he volunteered for
service nt the outbreak of the World
war and emerged, after active service
on the other side, as a captain of
infantry.
Maybe he won't win the Big Ten
football title his first year up. but
that 'pencil and pad story Is no myth
and the word might as well be passed
along to rival mentors who work un
der the able supervision of Major
John L. Griffith. He'll keep 'em
awake many nights trying to figure
out ways of stopping his strategic
moves."
