Scientific investigation of the genetics of chrysaiunernuiiis is in its oarlv stages, Irvit the breeder's art has been known at least 2,000 years in China, 1.000 years in Japan. 2">0 years in Europe and nearly 150 years In this country, says Dr. S. L. Emsweller, of the United States Department of Agriculture. Some improved varieties come from mutations of older stocks. Chrysanthemums may he propagated easily, and growers can readily multiply the stocks of these desirable plants. Iu the main, says Dr. Emsweller, -breeders have developed many new types by crossing old varieties and selecting the best of the offspring. Cross fertilization of promising plants was likely to produce seed from which would grow many inferior seedlings and, perhaps, a few superior plants. Breeders knew by experience that an early flowering habit in one or both of the parents was likely to produce some early flowering seedlings; I that largely-flowered ' parents were likely to breed large-flowered off' spring; and (hat hardiness begets hardiness in at least part of the seedlings. J The result of this kind of breeding is that most of the good chrysanthemums now in cultivation have highly mixed ancestry. One variety Of known parentage is the result of Ave generations of the crossing of known hybrids. Thus it has a mixture of the characters of ten known varieties and these probably include genetic elements from hundreds of earlier plants. Until scientific study of chrysanthemum genetics makes progress, it will not be practical, according to Dr. Emsweller, to "breed to order" for specific combinations of chrysanthemums qualities. He suggests that there is a promising field both for research and'for commercial breeding in "selfling" some of the present varieties to I isolate strains that will breed Crue for at least some of the hereditary characters.

Between You and Me (By THE SKIPPER) A team averaging 187 pounds per man wore down a team with an averago of 159. m m m m It was Camden all the way in the drat half With a hit of luck In the breaks, two beautiful passes by West would have rung the bell. * Columbia had (he power behind the weight, and in the second half this combination began to get results? wore down the light Camden's resistance. And did we miss Wilburt Williams. * What the result might have been had West and Red Lynch been in first class condition, instead of limping around with injured pegs, is a (luestion, but we will bet peanuts against pecans that Camden would have been winner. There were estimated 9.000 people at Melton Field to witness the game. It was the biggest crowd that ever gathered at that stadium to watch a football game and the largest crowd to attend a high school football game in South Carolina. We're not offering any figures, but take a pencil and do a little arithmetic. Figure the adult and student admissions on a 40-G0 basis. And then contemplate the $2ou that Camden received. Well, that's all we have to say, except this?we're just as dog-gone proud of the Bulldogs as ever, and still believe them to be the best team in state high school circles. * Speaking of punting. In the fourth quarter of the Green Bay Backer-Chicago Bear game last week Arnie Berber of the Backers was on his 30yard line and punted the ball Into the Bear end Bone on the fly, a distance of 90 yards. Name any ten ail-American football players right now and Wisconsin will provide the eleventh?Howie Weiss. .Just remember this fans, when they start listing the all-Aineriean team. * The old yelp about the disappearance of the field goal certainly wasn't worth a whoop a week ago Saturday. Here are a few games decided by that method?Tordham 3, St. Mary's 0; Washington 10, Stanford 7; Alabama 3, Tulane 0; Rlqe 3, Arkansas 0; Manhatt*n 3, North Carolina State 0. It was the second straight year that a timely kick won for Alabama over Tulane. * Hall Notre Dame and the Fighting Irish, the nation's greatest college football team. Elmer Laydon has aocomplished his great ambition?to build a team comparable with the great machine coached by the late Knute Rockne. And this year he has seemingly accomplished It. 4 They may talk aborut the Tennessee Vols, Duke, Texas Christian and a few others, but they are not the equal of that Irish squad. Wisconsin has tied up the Big Ten and the national football situation by bumping off a powerful west coast outfit last Saturday. The week before Wisconsin tipped the dope pAll by whaling Northwestern, then ratbd with Notre Dame as the nation's beet. ? a c And from Green Bay, Wisconsin, comes the story of the awful car nags ? -I . _ ? when that Packer machine, unquestionably the top outfit In national pro ranks, tipped over tho Detroit Tigers and took first place In tho race. We refrain from argument with that Columbia Record chap who declared that a good collego team will defeat tho best In the professional Held. We have seen many college games and also pro games and you can believe it or not, there Isn't any comparison. The pros have It over the college teams like a tent. ? ? Hits and/errors, mostly errors?at least when the chappie claims n state title for The Citadel. His reasoning smacks of comedy. The day is long distant when The Citadel can ever hope to defeat Clemson or South Caroi Una. j They laughed when, early in tho season, we suggested keeping an eye (on tho Gamecocks, that It looked like an up and coming team.
