he is found fit, according to United
States Army standards, he is as
signed to elementary military train
ing. If he is found in any way
physically disqualified he is placed
in the correctional physical training
unit, where every effort is made to
remedy his physical unftness.
Whenever he shows sufficient physi-
cal improvement he starts discharg-
ing his military requirement of TIVE
years.
Every mans physical record is
on file N the office of the command
ant, and these records are carefully
watched by an instructor, whose sole
duty it is to see that each man gets
proper physical exercise, the kind
best suited to his own needs.
Both physically fit and unfit are
required to take three hours work
each week throughout the year. The
work of the physically it-that is,
those taking military training-is
divided approximately equally be-
tween physical training, technique
of field drill and theoretical class
room work. What do these things
mean in everyday performance?
Physical training, a term which is
too often applied to the pergunctory
raising of arms in unison, Is carried
on ta New York University with the
one idea Of getting measurable re-
suits. A student body benefits from
athletics when each and every mem
ber actually plays in the game.

TN EVERY trump declaration at
auction there are two ways Of
A getting rid Of losing cards, and
the declarer, having the advan-
tage of seeing two hands, can in
variabIy pick the better, or perhaps
combine both methods. The first
and more obvious way is to let dunn
my trump them, if it has none Of
the suit. The other way to get rid
of losers is to discard them upon
winning cards in some other suit in
the other hand.
The difference between the two
methods is this: If dummy can
trump your losers, they are got rid
of with certainty and dispatch, but
if you discard them upon winning
cards in another suit, nothing is
gained unless the hand that discards
is still prepared to trump that suit
after discarding it. If it is not, the
might just as we'll be
postponed to the end of the hand
Here is good example Of combin-
ing both methods in the same deal {:

~ NE lesson of the great war
has been met by our Ameri-
~ can colleges in a most prac
tlcal manner. In 1917 the
number of officers available for the
army that was to be was practically
limited to the officers Of our regular
army and National Guard.
Responding to the needs OF anv
similar future emergency, colleges
and universities in every section of
the United States have established
training units, provided for in the
national defense act of 1916, as g
part Of their regular college work
This is the more remarkable when
1t Is realized that military training
was added to the curriculum i'm
mediately after the cessation of hos,

fering the maximum of disorganiza-

A Brittany Favorite

But Brittany seems to be the
favorite hunting ground of the
woman-eater; the legend of Co.
morre, or Conomor, the Breton chief
who murdered a series of wives and
was at last killed by the relatives of
a victim, reaches back to the sixth
century. In fact, there is reason to
believe that Conomor, and not GILES
de Laval, Baron Retz (or Rails, as it
is spelled sometimes), is the historic
Bluebeard of the Breton country,
for, according to latest research,
Giles had only one wife who sur
vived e,Am. On the other hand, he
New-York tribune., 1920-05-16

had passion for torturing young
boys to death.
There are some remarkable coinci-
dences in the cases Of the two great
est Bluebeards Of latter days, Ian
dru, the Frenchman, and Watson
HURT, the Californian. The chief
difference is, of course, that where
as Watson has pleaded guilty to the
murder of at least one Of his fifteen
to thirty wives, besides informally
confessing to eight more, and is now
in the Los Angeles county jail,
under sentence to life imprison-
ment, Landru, whose trial will
be up in the French assizes next
October, maintains to date an atti-
tude of defiance and is fond of "kid-
ding" his prosecutors. Another diff
ference is that while Watson actu-
ally married his victims, committing
bigamy to the right and left with
good deal greater ease than other
men experience in, say, buying
new suit of clothes, Landru re-
mained loyal to his "real" wife and
lured his victims to their death with
the promise of marriage only. More
over, WatsonHuirt had good
many irons in the fire at the same
time, so to speak, and derived consid-
cradle if rather precarious fun from
going around to restaurants and
theaters with one or other of his
wives when half dozen of the rest
might have butted into them at any1
moment. Landru, so it is alleged,
acted strictly on the principle zone
at a time" and never murdered his
fiancee within less than twenty-four
hours from the death of her prede-
cessor.
