They were Norwood Ewell of Penn State and Clyde Jeffrey of Stanford. Their duel in the 100-yard and 220-yard dash finals of the 19th N.

C. A. A. meet shaped up as a fitting climax to yesterday's preliminary program which saw giant Al Blozis of Georgetown establish a new meet and American record of 56 feet Vz inch for the shot put, and Southern California and Stanford wage a great fight for places in the finals. NEW SPRINT THREAT Ewell, a Negro speedster who runs with the effortless style of a Jesse Owens, indicated yesterday that he is ready to clinch recognition as the No.

1 collegiate sprinter of the year. His qualifying time of 9.8 seconds for the 100 equaled that of Jeffrey, a pow erfully built youth whose strong iimsn overcomes nis usuauy siow starts. And in the 220-yard dash, in which Jeffrey will be defending champion, Ewell turned in a time of 21.3 to 21.8 for Jeffrey on a track slowed by rain. Rain deprived yesterday's crowd of seeing the day's standout performance Blozis' mighty toss of the shot. Forced into the Minnesota fieldhouse by a soggy turf, the Georgetown sophomore cracked the old meet and American record of 55 feet, 10 inches, thereby precipitating the puzzle whether his mark, made indoors, would be recognized as an American mark.

N. C. A. A. officials, however, finally ruled it would stand as an American standard.

Maj. John L. Griffith, meet referee and Big Ten athletics commissioner, said it would not- be recognized as an indoor mark. The indoor record of 55 feet, 1 inch, was set by Blozis. BUXTON AMONG FAVORITES The half mile also promised plenty of action, with Paul Moore of Stanford, Campbell Kane of Indiana, Ed Buxton of Wisconsin ad Ed Burrowes of Princeton, expected to fight it out.

Fred Wol-cott of Rice, defending champion in the 120 highs and 220-yard low hurdles events, apparently was ready to win his specialties for a third straight year, although it appeared certain he'll be pressed all the way by his long time rival, Boyce Gatewood of Texas. Stanford had eight places in the finals as against seven for Southern California, which has won five straight team championships and has ranked as a strong favorite to make it six in a row. THREE BADGERS QUALIFY Minneapolis VP) Three University of Wisconsin athletes were among the qualifiers for today's finals in the 19th National Collegiate Athletic association track and field meet. George Paskvan qualified for the shot put with a toss of 47 feet, 10 inches. The other Badger qualifiers were Ed Smith in the 120-yard high hurdles, and Ed Buxton, in the 880-yard run.

HOOGERHYDE WINS ARCHERY HONORS two civilians, injured 23. Most of the bombs fell harmlessly into the sea. British fighter planes and antiaircraft guns of the British and French fleets drove the raiders away. The Italians also claimed their planes razed the Marsa Matruh headquarters of the British high command in Egypt, and also bombed the bases of Bizerte and Marseille, hitting a cruiser at Bizerte and damaging an arsenal and firing a few oil tanks. A hit was reported on another cruiser east of the Balearic islands.

FINED FORJMLUHTRY Milwaukee VP) William Foley's gallantry plus a storm cost him $25 today. It was raining when Foley and a woman companion emerged from a tavern. They weren't prepared for the sudden downpour. Foley dashed across the street to his car, drove over the sidewalk, up to the doorway, and opened the car for his girl friend. A policeman didn't appreciate his chivalry, and Foley, who lives in Omaha, paid $25.

VACANCIES NOTED IN FOUR BRANCHES Four branches of the army service now have vacancies from which qualified applicants are permitted to select according to their qualifications and education, Corp. Kenneth L. Wiles, officer ia charge of the United States army recruiting station at the postoffice building, said today. He announced the branches are infantry, field artillery, antitank, and the medical corps, with such posts of assignment as Fort Washington, California, Alabama and Fort Brady, Mich. There is one motor truck for each seven families in America.

Other Points Are Also Raided Berlin (IP) Seven persons were injured and buildings were damaged in the virini'y of Berlin today in the first air attack of the war on the Berlin region. D. N. official German news agency, said the buildings hit included a hospital.

(The Frenrh asserted without elaboration June 8 that naval bombers had raided factories in the Berlin suburbs. An authorized Berlin spokesman declared there was "absolutely no truth" to this French announcement.) Two civilians were injured slightly at Bremen by explosive and incendiary bombs, D. N. B. said.

Two Incendiary bombs which struck near the railway station in Babelsberg, a Berlin suburb, damaged a garage and automobiles and wrecked an automatic telephone system. ONE LANDS IN STREET A third incendiary bomb landed in a street of the suburb, which is about 14 miles frorn the center of the capital. No injuries were reported, and authorities termed the damage "immaterial." Four planes, described by officials as British, were reported driven off by antiaircraft fire before any effective bombing could be done. Spokesmen also reported that scattered planes continued to bomb western Germany, and D. N.

B. announced that nine persons had been killed when bombs struck dwellings and a church in the Essen area Thursday night. Sixteen persons previously had been reported killed during raids in the vicinity of Cologne and Dusseldorf Wednesday and Thursday nights. RAIDED ONCE BEFORE Only once before during the war had Berlin even had an air raid alarm during the Polish cam paign last fall. Residents of Babelsberg said the bombs fell before an alarm was heard.

Capital residents took the alarm calmly, some complaining jocularly that the raiders had selected the shortest night of the year to spoil 20 minutes sleep. The gunfire lasted for about 20 minutes, but the all clear signal was not given until 2:16 a. m. A German announcement, IIIST TIMIS TODAY EDW. G.

ROBINSON )N 'BROTHER ORCHID 'LUCKY CISCO KID THE THAT AD0LPHE HEN J0U CAROLE LANDIS JOHM HUBBARD Wifa Gorges Mary Alter 4 fffNnf AtlhU ttf MM Their rowdiest, roafh weptf COMEDY TINY GLANDS CAUSE OVERWEIGHT The case of the overweight child is essentially the same as that of the overweight adult. We said yesterday that in at least 99 jcr cent of cases, the individual over 40 who is overweight is that way because he eats too much and exercises too little (mostly because he eats too much). The overweight child is overweight because he eats too much also but there is another factor at work in 95 per cent of these cases, which is some disturbance of the activity of the ductless glands. We all know these fatties. They are jolly, amusing, little fellows.

They are not only fat but they are rather physically disproportionate. The boys incline to be feminine and the girls are suporfeminine. These added characteristics indicate that the overweight is due to a disturbance of the ductless glands. Usually several are involved. Guilty Glands The pituitary gland, that wonderful little piece of flesh no bigger than the end of your little finger, which lies in the skull and regulates so many of our personality's temperamental and physical traits, is one of them.

The thyroid gland is usually also involved; at least these cases respond by reducing weight if thyroid extract is given. These two glands influence many other functions, through their action or "trophic" influence on other glands in the body. This is what produces the feminine characteristics in these children. They do eat a lot. They seem to have a craving and a need for candy and sweets and it is very hard to keep these away from them, and they have an enormous capacity for storing sugar and starch, and they store it in the form of fat.

In treatment it is very hard to do much with them in the way of diet. They break over restraint. Their physical desires are greater than their will power (in which they are not so very much dif ferent from their older colleagues in obesity) and endocrine treatment often works wonders with them. Fine Reoovery Thus in a boy 9 years of age who weighed 156 pounds, treatment with pituitary extract and thyroid for four months resulted in a loss of 20 pounds, but this figure does not represent the real gain because he had gained in height ZVi inches. Such cases are quite typical of results that are being obtained by ductless gland extract treatment under carefully controlled con ditions.

Along with the decrease in weight and increase in height, many other physical character istics improve under this treatment. It is well, if possible, to combine the treatment with diet ary restrictions. This, as I said above, is difficult but these chil dren are sensitive to their over weight and if once they can be convinced that improvement is possible, they are willing to under go considerable restriction in the matter of candy, sweets, ice cream, desserts and other con centrated fattening foods. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS S. M.

M. "Please recommend a good remedy for an itch in both ears. Also, what foods are excel lent for building strong bones?" Answer Itch in the ear is usually due to an infection of some kind and the light application of mercurochome, or very dilute tincture of iodine applied on a cot ton swab gently so as not to touch the ear drum, should be done first. After doing this for a day or two, zinc oxide ointment saturated on a cotton pledget and gently placed in the ear. The best foods to build bones are those containing calcium and the most available are milk and the green M.

L. "Please advise 'me a cure for an eyelid that itches at the edge. All the lashes come out and grow back wild, and scratch the eyeball. Makes mucus or thread-like scum on the eye." Answer: This may be quite a serious condition and should be treated by an oculist. Your description is entirely accurate.

It was not a retreat; it was a rout, said he. Englishmen who have attempted to identify Lord Haw Haw believe hu is a former member of the British Fascist legion who spent some time in this country. A London wit gave him the name of Lord Haw Haw shortly after hostilities began.

Whoever this man is, he has excellent radio personality. His speech i the precise, cultured speech of an educated Englishman and it is reminiscent of Leslie Howard. As is probably true with other broadcasting companies, NBC dutifully records all of Haw Haw's chats. These are taken down on little discs that may be played back into earphones, in the manner of phonograph records. As a matter of course, all foreign broadcasts are recorded.

These recordings are then translated by interpreters into English and fed to their own news commentators or relayed to the newspapers. TOURING the recent talk of a Dutch invasion, the NBC listening post picked up a strange English voice from the Netherlands one night. "If you are looking for news," it said, "we must ask you to look elsewhere. This is a broadcast from a peaceful nation to other peaceful nations of the world. We cannot tell you what the weather is tonight; that would come under the heading of military information.

But we can say that in Holland tonight it is May, and the moon is shining, and the poppies are blooming." The rest of the broadcast was a sort of merrily-we-rollalong commentary on the more pleasant aspects of life. PARKER MEETS DOUBLES PARTNER IN SEMIFINAL Chicago (IP) Two of the finest exponents of defensive tennis Frank Parker of Pasadena, and Don McNeill of Oklahoma City match strokes today in the semifinals of the national clay courts tournament at the suburban River Forest club. These two players, forming the No. 1 ranking men's doubles team the nation, play a similar game, composed of steady baseline play and adequate service. They meet for the right to battle top-ranking Bobby Riggs for the title in tomorrow's final.

Riggs earned a finalist's berth yesterday when he brushed aside Welby Van Horn, 20-year-old Los Angles comer, in straight sets, 6-2, 8-4, 6-4. The women's championship lies between Alice Marble, English and American champion, and Gracyn Wheeler of Santa Monica, Calif. Miss Marble entered the finals Thursday. Miss Wheeler, seeded fourth, eliminated Helen Bern-hard of New York City, ranked second, in the semifinals yesterday, 6-4, 7-5. The women's title match also will be held tomorrow.

Miss Marble and Mary Arnold Los Angeles meet Misses Wheeler and Bernhard in the women's doubles final today.

The capture of two great warships was first reported by the newspaper Der Aneriff vesterdnv It said the Germans found the two ships still in their stocks.

Lord Haw Haw is the Englishman who fled Briton at the outbreak of the war and now feeds his countrymen a long line of sarcasm by radio.

It is said that all good Englishmen tune him in regularly and that he is now the favorite news broadcaster of the British public. I can tell you that Lord Haw Haw also is the favorite broadcaster of the NBC listening staff, despite the presence of John Gunther, H. V. Kaltenborn, Lowell Thomas, and other top stars of their own. We, by good luck, happened to go up to NBC the other day just before Lord Haw Haw came on the air, and the word to get ready to listen in was being passed around to everybody, from the engineers to the reporters and the secretaries.

They like to listen to this unknown Englishman, whose cultured voice floats out of Bremen, Germany, every afternoon and every evening with gleeful accounts of how the Germans are daily outwitting the British. ORD HAW HAW, following the German custom that was in evidence even before hostilities began, invariably speaks highly of the French troops. Discussing the Norwegian campaign, he made a point of explaining that French troops engaged in that undertaking always retired in good order, with their full equipment. The British, he said, went berseu'c, throwing down their "THE CAPTAIN IS A LADY" BEING SHOWN AT STRAND Heaping portions of romance and comedy are dished up for movie goers in "The Captain Is a Lady," which opened yesterday at the Strand theater. Amid laughter and pathos engendered by a great cast of character actors, a new romantic team is introduced.

The team is composed of Virginia Grey and Dan Dailey Dailey, a tall young blond, is cast in the juvenile lead on the strength of his telling performance in his first screen role in "The Mortal Storm." Before entering pictures, he was a musical, comedy star. While on tour in "I Married an Angel" he was seen by talent scouts and signed to a long-term contract. Miss Grey, the other half of the new romantic duo, first won plaudits from critics for her role in "The Women." She further established herself with her performance in "Thunder Afloat." Now in "The Captain Is a Lady" she takes one step further toward stardom with an appealing, sincere performance. The action of the film principally revolves around Abe Peabody, a scheming, cantankerous, yet lovable old seafaring man whom Charles Colburn plays to the hilt Surrounding Coburn is an impressive group of Hollywood's top character actresses. Beulah Bondi plays the wife of the old seaman, who joins her when she goes to live in an Old Ladies' Home.

Inmates of the home, whose sentiments range from mid-Victorian to ultra-modern, are played by Helen Broderick, Billie Burke, Helen Westley, Cecil Cunningham and Marjorie Main. A companion feature, "One Million B. and a new March of Time subject, "The U. S. Navy," is also on the current Strand movie bill.
