September is preparing l<>'
nudge August off the calendar,
and football is getting some atten
tion. The gridiron game will soon
be goin full blast. The thought
makes your Sport Shooter forget

As usual, the names of Polish
pigskin chasers will be found in
many a headline. Your scribe has
very little advance dope on the
potential All-Americans who
boast of Polish ancestry, but it
wont be long now before the stars
are spotted.
Polish athletes lake to foot
ball the way a Georgia pickaniny
takes to watermelon. As far back
as 1905, Frank Piekarski, stal
wart guard for the University of
Pennsylvania, was picked by |
Waller Camp for his All-Ameri
can. The same honor was given
to Frank A. Rydzewski, center on
the 1915, 1910 and 1917 Notre
Dame teams.
Shortly after the war Polish
names in the football world be
came as numerous as customers
at the Aquacade. Us an excep
tional year that does not produce
at least one Pole on the All-
American. Hos/kowski of Ohio

Pittsburgh, one of the great ends
of all time, John Wysocki of
Villanova, giant Alex Wojciecho
wicz of Fordham—these are some
of the star linesmen who have
been given lop rating in recent
seasons.
Among the backs we find the
names of such greats as Ford
ham’s peerless Ed Danowski, cle
ver Ed Brominski of Columbfa,
Minnesota’s balering Stan Kost
ka, versatile Bill Osmanski of
Holy Cross.
Ed Danowski, incidentally, is
making a record in pro football
ranks that will assure him a front
seal in the money players’ Hall of 1
Fame.
Bronko Nagurski, Minnesota’s j

General
Sikorski’s
Determination
In a broadcast speech to the
Polish Nation made from London
i on .June 24, General Sikorski said:
“Two divisions of the Polish
Army were fighting near the Ma
ginol Line. One part of the ar
mored division of General Mac/ek
operated on the most threatened
section of the front, near Vitry-le-
Francois. A brigade of the Carpa
i tian Chasseurs, led by General
Szyszko-Bohusz, fought heroically
in Norway. While at the front I
I have orders to our First (General
jDuch) and Second (General Fru
gal-) Infantry Divisions to break
through towards Switzerland in
case of a collapse of the Franch
front. According to reports re
ceived, our Second Division to
gether with some elements of the
| First Division has succeeded in
carrying out this order, and won
general admiration by its altitude.
“Poland was the first country
to fall victim to the enemy’s in
vasion. Today, in spile of tremen
dous losses and enormous hard
ships, Poland remains the loyal
Ally of Great Britain in Hi estrug
gle for the ideals of liberty and
democracy..
Merchandising
As An Art
The best retail stores in every
community, large and small, are
-interesting in
an art, and .whether you enter
them for a specific item or not,
they are interesting much in the
spirit of going through a museum
or exposition.
Seeing often means buying.
This applies even to back-coun
try stores nowadays, often those
of remote cross-road villages;
they have a stock nicely measured
to the particular wants of their
communities —from plows to sta
tionery.
Department stores in large cities
reached a very high standard
many years ago in the art of dis
play, but the greatest progress
| within the past decade is in food
merchandising.
These store keepers discovered
that fruit, vegetables, and attract
ive package goods lend themselves
well to natural store decorations.
In their study of merchandising
psychology, of human habits and
tendencies, they make an appeal
to the sense of smell as well as
that of the eye.
For instance, an attractive
j young woman will be toasting
cheese sandwiches, another will
be breving small cups of coffee;
j both operations give forth an al
luring odor throughout the store
j—stars the gastric juices of the
j customers al lowing they buy
| more of these and other food
items.
Quite a contrast to the old gen
■ enral store. In winter, at least,
there was no particular attempt at
display save trays of dried vege
tables on the sidewalk and wired
bundles og sassafras; a new horse
| collar hanging to a stick nailed
against the door- jamb and a churn
barrell filled with ax-handles.
And there were the mixed odors
of damp sugar, coal oil, prunes,
cheese in a wire cage, rolling
apples and sprouting potatoes up
from the cellar; and an occasional
whiff from a coop-full of live
chickens out in front—if the door
was open and the wind happened
to be blowing in just the right di-
I reel ion.
There never was a good sermon
on a long text.
Jan Mateyko
AN APPRECIATION
By Rudolph Tarczyxski
! deem il my duly to mention
particularly the creative genius
of Malejko- that great Polish
historian of the canvas whose
masterpieces won for him univer
sal acclaim. He was in fact both
a painter and a historian, for he
successfully portrayed to the
world all the past glory of his
native land. He was a most extra
ordinary figure in the world of
fine arts. Although at limes rather
Italian in his technique, he never
theless portrayed all the vivid
beauty of Poland’s Golden Age,
and of its earlier and later history,
with a distinctive Polish treat
ment of his subjects, and with re
markable truthfulness. The an
cient glory of the Renaissance
was brought to life by his master
ful brush. Free from a character
istic Polish sentimentalism and
sadness or melancholy, he gave
to the world a display of titanic
force, of a most wonderful arran
gement in the treatment of color
and the grouping of figures, and
an expression of life worthy, in
fact, of the mighty brush of Mi
chelangelo.
Oddly enough, although Malej
ko studied al Cracow and Munich,
neither of these schools influenced
him in the least degree. He found
his own creative world in the
past, and enlivened il with people
peculiarity his own. Il was justly ,
| called “the Malejko world.”
He was the laureate painter of
I the Paris Exposition. In 18(15 he
was awarded the gold medal foe
his “Skarga’s Sermon.” Two sim
ilar awards followed for other
, masterpieces. He became a corres
ponding member of the Paris Art
Institute. The cros sof the Legion
of Honor was bestowed upon him.
Western Europy finally acclaim
l ed him as the greatest exponent
j of the art of Tintoretto, Rubens,
and even Michelangelo.
Numerous great works remain
as Poland’s heirloom from Malej
ko. Many of these are canvasses
I
of considerable size His “Battle
of Grunwald,” “Skarga’s Sermon,”
The Homage of The
Prussian Vassail” and “Autopor
trait” are considered truly classic
masterpieces. He was an accom
plished portraitist, famed espe
i eially for the expression which
he gave to the eyes of his figures,
a characteristic which no one was
! subsequently able to imitate.
German
Parachutists’
School in Poland
The large training camp for
1 parachutists near Lublin, in Ger
man ocupied Poland, was enlar
ged recently to make room for
i several thousands of young Ger
i man soldiers, according to a con
i fidential report received here by
the Polish Information Center.
The new contingents are com
posed of boys appearing to be
scarcely more than 17 years old.
To keep secret the location of the
training camp, several villages in
the neighborhood were evacuated.
Il is believed that a number of
these young parachutists will be
used in an attack upon England
since there are present several
English speaking officers.

Skull Practice Perfects A.R.P. Wardens’ Work A
Efficient rescue work by air raid precautions wardens In England following bombings by Nazis is due to
their rigid training. Above is showm a squad of wardens during a “skull drill” in a tactical table in one of the
air headquarters in London. By using this table the men are carefully drilled in handling traffic, administer
ing aid to the injured and extinguishing fires during the raids. Credit for an unusually low casualty rate during
the raids on England following France’s capitulation was given them.

Where Did They
Come From?
Where did they come from
these servile phrases that even lo-
I day are to he found in letters
j written by otherwise modern busi
ness houses?
A visitor studying our Ameri
can democracy might well he sur
prised to find in some of our
letters such phrases as “We beg
to acknowledge,” “your favor of
the 12th,” “this esteemed order,”
and “your most chcdient servant,”
! etc. etc. !
A booklet called “Modern Let- j
ter Writing” published for the
| guidance of its own correspon
dents by Royal Typewriter Com
pany, advances an interesting
theory.
1 Royal Typewriter Company j
thinks this servility goes back to
the days when North America was
still Crown property. Tradesman
looked to the nobilily for most of
j their business. The butcher, baker
.and cadlestick maker considered
lit better for both their trade and
their heads to address their lordly
patrons in humble fashion.
W hen America became our own
we discarded most of the inequal
ities of Eighteenth Cenlruy Eng
land, but we haven’t yet rid our
selves of anachronisms in bus
iness correspondence.
