feeling of confidence pervades the
camp of the Technical High School foot

overconfidence. The size of the squad
gives promise that from among the sew

for practice at the east end school a
team can be developed that will win q
state championship

School was still only dream.
Now Technical is Il great school with
more buildings and more students than
any other high school in the state, and
probably In the Central West. Tech has,
in tie few short years Of its existence,
developed a state championship baseball
team. and district championship track
and basket ball teams so why not state

JAZZ STEPS IN LOW HEELS
SURE WAY TO KEEP PRETTY
Ch"opodst Tells Women to Discard Slish Shoes and Silk
Stockings to Find Real Beauty

If women would abolish high heels
dance more of the jazz steps and put
silk stockings aside during the exces-
sively hot weather, there would be a
great decrease in i'll health according
to DIR. Il. ]. Matucci. chairman of the
National Association of Chiropodists,
who opened its ninth annual convention
today at Temple University annex, ,
Eighteenth and Buttonwo0d streets.
Doctor Matucci declared many bodily
complaints are caused originally by the
abuse of the feet. Tired. wrinkled.
pinched faces are the first danger signs
on women who neglect TO give proper
care to their pedal extremities. he said.
High heels cause more bodily ills,
directly and indirectly, than any other
form of dress abuse women subject
themselves to-" Doctor Matucci de-
clared. "If women did away with their
use. 90 per cent of the physical all
ments they suffer would be eliminated"
IF feet are CONSTRUCTED in narrow
pointed shoes with stilt like heels. only
a very short time will elapse before the
wearer will find tiny wrinkles appearing
around her eyes. he said, and the con-
stant pressure the ball of the foot is
compelled to bear through the unnatural
raising of the heel win make the un-
knowing victim tire easily. A continual
state OF tiredness produced one of the
most dreaded enemies of beauty, a sag
ging modth.
Women, particularly young girls,
wear high heels simply for style" Doc
tor Matpcci said. And once. q woman

Roads Need Month
to Fix NelU Rates


tOntIhuod from PaEe One
entire country. They were 20 per cen,
on passenger, milk and excess baggag,
charges and GO per cent on rates fol
sleeping and parlor car space.
In the case Of freight rates, however
the carriers will ask the states to nd
vance these tariffs to correspond with
the increases granted by the federal
commission for the territory in which
the state is located. The interstate in =
creases authorized are 40 per cent in
eastern territory 25 in southern and
Mountain Pacific territory and 80 in
western territory.
The first task of the railroads. it
was announced here yesterday. will be
the rehabilitation Of their lines. The
railroads. their representatives in
Washington said. hope to be able to
start at once placing orders for 10000
freight cars, 1000 locomotives and 1000
passenger coaches to cost approx
mately $4,000. .00O,0 fixed by the
roads as the minimum equipment that
is necessary to place them once more
upon a stable operating basis.
In announcing that the applications
for intrastate advances would be made
to the state commissions. Alfred p.
Thorn, general counsel Of the Associa-
ton of Railway Executives. said these
increases would not enlarge the gross
income to be received by the roads un-
der the decision of the Federal Com
mission, because in presenting their
case the carriers had based their csti.
mates on corresponding intrastate state
rate advances.
The railway executives have not cal.
culatcd the total increased revenue to
be derived from the rate advances, but
from their estimates presented to the
commission at the public hearings the
sum has been unoficially approximatcd
at 81 800 ZOO. 900. The commission
decision is intended to so fix rates as
to give the roads the 6 per cent return
on their aggregate value permitted by
the TRANSFORMATION act.
Coastwise and inland steamship com.
panies and electric railway lines are
permitted under the Interstate Com
mercc Commission's decision TO raise
only freight rates. Nothing was said
by the commission as to passenger rates
on the steamboat lines. but the decision
did say specifically that the freight rate
increase granted electric railway lines
was mot to be construed as an ex-
preston Of disapproval of increases.
made or proposed in the regular man
ncr, in the passenger fares of electric
lines
While the commission authorizes sep
arate freight rate increases to the rail
roads in the four separate territories,
the increase on freight moving from
one territory into another will be 33 | 3
per cent.
