MEMS LEGS PULLED
SO HARD ONE GROWS
LONGER THAN OTHER

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 15.-Six.
teen applicants for enlistment, whose
right legs were longer than their port
side members, were rejected at the
local recruiting station of the United
States Marine Corps. during the
month of August, according to Ser
seant Frank r. Busch. the non-com-
missioned officer in charge.
II take no stock in the theory that
it is an hereditary affliction with a
Salt Lake locale" said Marine Ser
geant Busch today, but it Is peculiar
fact that very many males of this city
have starboard limbs longer than
their left ones. One explanation Is
that the male forbears of this younger
generation had their legs pulled so
often and hard by their plural wives
during the spring bonnet season that
the offspring has been marked with a
list a-port."
