ST. JOHNS TROUNCED
BY COLLEGE PARKERS
Local Collegians Helpless Before
Pitcher Nisbet Who Famed
Thirteen Batsmen
FINAL SCORE WAS 10 TO 0

University OF Maryland wound up
its baseball season at College Park
yesterday by swapping ST. Johns Col
loge. 10 TO o. The game was put on
ice in the first inning. when three
runs were scampered over the plate.
The st. Johns lads were helpless be-
fore Nisbets pitching. and Tall did
not puzzle the College Parkers in the
least. Maryland played an errorless
game.
Nisbet's slabwork was about the
only feature of a listless game. The
dig fellow. had he kept up the pace
he set in the first three innings, prob
IDLY would have made a strikeout rec
ord, as seven of the first nine men TO
lace him went down by tanning.
Yields Only Six Hits
After Maryland counted five times
in the third. Nisbet eased up and ST.
Johns got three consecutive hits. but
Nisbet frightened up and there was no
scoring. Nisbet struck out Is.

GROUP GAMES HELPFUL
TO CHILD AND PARENT
IN SUMMER MONTHS

Spring and summer weather. which
of-doors, has a distinct effect upon
their play habits and their over
whelming desire to get out into the
fresh air should be appreciated and
met by parents.
Among the many differences be-
tween indoor and outdoor play is the
fact that in winter there is seldom
room in the average home for many
children OF neighborhood families to
play together.
Warm. sunny days provide that OPP
portunity either in the city. in the
country. or at the seashore. and asso-
is beneficial and broadening Ii helps
children to get new play ideas from
their companions and helps them also,
in that they learn something of social
intercourse. They play with each
others toys and that tends to prevent
the possible development of selfish
ness and strengthens their young
ideas of courtesy. generosity and
mutual helpfulness In a way. out
door play groups are similar to the
socities and clubs 10 which children's
: parents belong.
Get children together in outdoor
play groups. II is good for them and
easier for the mothers. Let a mother
or several mothers or a play group
teacher or real intelligent COVER
ness supervise their play by sugg -
tion in such way that the children
feel that they are at most merely tax
ing suggestion from their elders and
working it out their own way.
A plainly dictated game or method
of play in which the child feels thai
it has no creative part becomes to
that child merely 4 task-wiih no fun
in ii. II is serious mistake to at
tempt TO guide a child's play entirely
from an adult idea OF what the child
should want 10 do.

This pest. it is said, in conjunction
with the clover-leaf wecvil and the

becoming so serious in parts of Ohio
that alsike and sweet clover are be-

clover. it being impossible to grow
the latter crop successfully.

cult which operates an electrically

this valve opens, it admits COM

throttle to open and bring the ship up

THE steering gear consists OF a

"A very novel feature OF this install

is made possible with the aid of a
gyro-compass. The compass is cleo
trically connected TO the control
panel OF the electric motor on the
steering gear. so that the ship can be
made to hold any course. The gyro-
compass Immediately operates the
steering gear TO return the ship to
her course. The officer sending the
control signals can steer the Iowa tc
either starboard or port, or may put
the gyro-compass in control and hold
steady course.
The commutator might be con-

How Ship Is Controlled

The apparatus for controlling the
ship consists OF standard radio trans
mitter aboard the controlling ship and
receiving aerial on the Iowa, with
special radio receivers. amplifers. re-
lays. &c, for converting the radio sig
nails into a form such that they will
operate the electrical devices which
control the steering gear and the
throttle OF the main engines.
The officer in charge of sending the
radio signals from the control ship
has absolute control OF the starting of
the Iowa. steering her in any direc-
ton and stopping her when desired.
Secretary DENLY stated today that
the various operations which will take
place are as follows:
when everything on board the Iowa
is ready. the main engines are started
up and left running very slowly. The
ship Is then abandoned. and the officer
aboard the controlling ship has con-
troll OF the Iowa. The first radio sig
nal sent out is intercepted by the aer-
ial on the Iowa and is received by the
radio receiver located well below
deck.
This signal is then amplified by
means OF special vacuum tube ampli-
fers and is made to operate very
sensitive relay or switch. which in
turn operates a larger relay. This
