RUSSIAN TRADE DUE
/ FOR DECIDED CHANGE

TOXIC, April 1.-(By mail to the
United Press. within the next thirty
or sixty days there will be wonderful
changes in Russian trade conditions,
according to the prediction of Vladi-
mir X. vochmetroff, one of the heads
of The Centrosoius, a Russian econo-
mic organization with more than 20,-
900, 900 members, who arrived here
after a visit to the United States.
Allied nations by that time will have
reached a definite understanding of
their future policy toward the soviet
government, and then trade will flour
ish. said vochmetroff.
The two objects of the Controsoius
have been accomplished. he explained.
The first and most important one was
to remove the blockade on Russian ex-
ports and imports" he said, and the
second was to strengthen the financial
position of the organization in the in
ternational market. Both have been
accomplished and the Centrosoius has
come forward as one of the greatest
factors in international relations.
On his arrival in San Francisco, on
his way to Washington. vochmetroff
was detained by United States immi-
grafton officials, who took him into
custody before he left the ship. He
was released. however, the following
day, when his credentials Were found
to be satisfactory.

USE BASEBALL. IN TEACHING
Novel Method OF Teaching Spelling
Adopted by School in Penn
sylvania.

Kane, Pa.-Public schools here have
adopted a new and novel method of
teaching spelling.
On suggestion of the teachers, it is
known as the 'baseball system" which
eliminates monotony from the study
and creates an interest second only to
that of outdoor sport. 1t is nothing
more or less than playing baseball with
words.
The schoolroom is the diamond, the
corners being used for the bases and
the teacher is the pitcher" The pu-
pills are the players" A pupil "at
bat' advances to the corner of the
room designated as the ''plate," and
the teacher pronOunces three words.
II all are correctly spelled the ''play-
er" moves to first base, having made
a shit" each succeeding player who
makes a chit" advances him a base
until he is scored.
AS each succeeding player makes a
