Theree's an oldadage--•-we don't
just recall the exact wording—that
la addressed to folks on the make,
It is to the effect that when you're
climbing up the Hill of Success it
is advisable to mind your manners
and not chuck your weight around
too much. Why? "Because the
folks you pass on your way to the
top are the very ones you'll pass
when you come tumbling down
again."
* *
We have often thought of this
adage when certain individuals
came tumbling down—millionaires,
commercial tycoons and the like
who didn't hesitate to throw their
weight around when they were up
there. They always seemed so sur-
prised that other folks didn't take
such a mournful view of the tumble
as they did themselves. Expecting
sympathy, the best they got was
advice to go and look under the
letter "S" in the dictionary.
* * 5
Now that Same adage comes to
mind when we consider the present
plight of a couple of football outfits
who, just about ten months ago,
were the two top teams in Canada
—to wit, the Ottawa Rough Riders
and the Calgary Stampeders.
* * *
It is hardly a secret that neither
the Riders or the Stampeders had
to be told they were good. They
would freely admit that they were,
if you asked them. Or even if you
didn't. In fact, over a fairly lengthy
stretch of watching athletes in the
process of winning or losing, we
can recall few teams who created a
more unfriendly feeling among the
general public by their actions off
the field; although, in all fairness,
it must be said that a generous
measure of that ill feeling may have
been due to a horde of loud-
mouthed supporters who carried
enthusiasm to the point of ob-
noxiousness.
* k
Anyway, while the Calgary and
Ottawa teams may have been high-
ly popular in their own back yards,
they were far from that among the
neighbor'.
And ni'w look at thein! Ottawa,
of course, at present writing are not
definitely out of it. But anyonee.
wlio witnessed the pushing around
they took from the Argos—the team
all the experts picked to finish
either third or fouth—the other
Saturday would be -loath to wager
more than a picayune on their
chances of winning the Big Four
again. to picayune, if you must
know, was a coin they used to have
down New Orleans way, worth
around six and a quarter cents.)
* *
As for the Stampeders—well, for
then] the ship has definitely sailed.
About all that is left for them is to
borrow the line managements of
losing baseball clubs feed to the
fans and say, "Next year we're go-
ing to have a HUSTLING ball
team."
k * *
Yes, indeed, that old adage we
alluded to at the start isn't such a
bad one for teams, as well as indi-
viduals, to take to heart "Always
remember that the folks you pass
on your way to the top are the same
ones you'll pass on the way down."
And we hope that the Calgary
Stampeders and the Ottawa Rough
Riders are feeling plenty sorry for
themselves—sorry enough to plas-
ter all their mental aches and
bruises. Yes, they'd better, because
outside of their own supporters,
nobody else appears to be.
k * *
Nor did those same Ottawa
Rough Riders do anything to in-
crease their general popularity by
their actions in regard to a couple
esf deeply -tanned members of the
FASHION NOTE FOR JUNIORS
Three colors of suede fashion this four piece outfit for Junior.
The jacket has a zipper that works up or down, and a vest
matches one of the lighter shades.
Argonauts, With Negroes starring
on Big League baseball teams, and
on College football elevens, south
of the Border — with a United
States Negro just receiving a Nobel
Prize that proclaimed him as one
of the world's outstanding citizens
—such treatment of the race here in
Canada is sickening, to put it very
mildly.
* * *
It is a fact that Ulysses Curtis,
one of the colored gentlemen in
question, has a rather reprehensible
habit of shaking his large dogs
around after he has been tackled.
But his Big Four playmates could
have been trusted to cure him of
that. Other footballists, in the past,
have had the same habit—and
wound up by being carried off the
field with a badly twisted knee.
* *
But if Ulysses Curtis was the
dirtiest player who ever stepped on
a Canadian gridiorn—which he was
a great many miles from being—
even that wouldn't excuse the kind
of filthy abuse that was hurled at
him by one, at least, of the Rough
Riders. What was even worse was
the action of a member of the
Ottawa management in backing up
—instead of repudiating—what his
players had done, If that's what
professional sport in Canada is
coming to, the sooner we're rid of
it the better.
*
But maybe there was a reason,
although not an excuse. As poor old
Jack Johnson once said in our hear-
ing, "It's funny how they never
worried about my bad morals till
after I'd copped the championship."
Maybe, if Ulysses Curtis had been
just an ordinary run-of-the-mill
player, instead of an outstanding
star, those proud Ottawa's wouldn't
have cared whether his skin was
black, white, or skyblue pink
A welfare officer was interview-
ing a mother of thirteen children.
"It's incredible," she said. "How on
earth do you find time to look
after so many by yourself?"
The mother replied without hesi-
tation. "When I had only one child
it took all my time, so what more.
can thirteen take?" -

Now I hope that after reading
this you won't rush madly to sell
all your live stock, together with
most of your harvesting machinery
and so forth, in order to make a
clean up by putting all your acres
under grass. Still, if the following
information is true—and I have no
reason to doubt it—there may conte
a day when we'll all be growing
-
grass, not as a filler for cattle, but
as a food for human beings. Stranger
things than that have happened.
Why, just the other day, beieive 1t
or not, I saw a teen -aged lad get up
and offer his seat to a lady on a
crowded street -car.
Most people laughed when a
London grass -eating enthusiast re-
commended fine golf course tips
garnished with lawn cuttings, and
rissoles cooked with dried grass.
Yet today scientists agree that
grass may prove a panacea for the
world's pressing food problems.
,k * *
During the war British Govern,
ment chemists investigated the food
possibilities of fresh young grass
and, at the height of the U-boat
menace, actually set up a shadow
factory for potential production,
* * *
Desert troops in Libya and else-
where who munched sustaining
candy bars never realized they were
eating experimental grass nougat.
Sausages can be made from grass
protein, and researchers at the
Rothamsted soil science station
have experimented with a dehy-
drated clover -like lucerne grass
which can be used in soups. giving
the • flavour of peas. Two per cent
of Britain's total protein needs, it
is asserted, could be supplied in this
way.
* * *
Since wheat, barley, oats, rice
and maize all belong among the
4,500 varieties of the great grass
family, the news is not surprising.
Sugar canes, sorghum and even
bamboos all hint at fresh variations
in grass nutrition. But fresh wild
grass—nature's waste product—is,
of course, the focus of current ex-
periments.
* * t
Analysts confirm that an ounce
of grass provides eight times more
vitamin . B than equivalent toma-
toes, f o u r t'e e n times more
vitamin A, plus invigorating chloro-
phyll and valuable mineral salts. .
Carotene, the vitamin A substance
which counteracts failing eyesight,
is yielded by grass in three times
the quantity available, from the
' common source,' carrots. '
* * *
Again, in probing grass possibi-
lities, therapeutists have discovered
a sugar anti -sterility factor which
has overcome parentage problems
in rats and rabbits, But perhaps
the trend of current research is
best illustrated in the experiments
of David Tullis, a poultry expert.
Aware that young grass contains
hormones and proteins which make
it an ideal food for hens, he set
out to overcome the outstanding
snag, the fact that hens cannot dig-
est it. He fed a flock on powdered
grass Without result, and then tried
removing all the indigestible fibre,
but still in vain.
* * ,k
Geese can digest grass—why not
hens? During 15 years of patient
experiment, he isolated digestive
juices which geese have but hens
lack, and succeeded in manufactur-
ing then synthetically. On being fed
grass pellets mixed with these
juices, oil and carbohydrates, the
hens put on weight and laid better,
* * *
As a result, poultry farmers all
over Britain are feeding their birds
entirely on pellet grass. Pullets have
been putting on as latch as eight
ounces in a week, while full -grows:
grass-fed hens weigh an average
pound more than those raised 011
