People Should Live 100 Years

A movement to educate the people
Of the world to live 100 years is
suggested by Dr. Stephen Smith, 80
years old who declared in an address
to members Of the American Public
Health association that the Mosaic
law limiting the span Of life to three
score years and ten was all wrong,
"Moses himself proved the falsity
Of the law by living 40 years beyond
his own allotted time" he said. "The
normal and potential life Of man, "
he added, was 100 years and every
child born was adapted in physical
construction and function to live a
century: common sense he asserted,
would carry people to their hund-
redth birthday"
"For instance, he said, Il would
advise the lady who cannot digest
eggs I'd cut them out, the man who
lawns too much to walk mile, thus
pumping dead air out of the lungs;
and the young woman with weak
ankles to change her peg heeled and
pointed toed shoes for the sensible
kind like her grandmother wore.

IRISH MEUSEL'S HITS
ADD TO GIANTS LEAD

Eight hits in two days by Leftfielder
Emil (Irish) Meusel OF the Giants was
one reason why his team had an
eighteen-point ei margin over the
Pirates in the National League today.
He drove home four runs with two
doubles against the Cards yesterday
and clinched the 5-to-2 game for the
easterners. Meusel made two other
hits, welloping safely four times in
FIVE trips to the plate. Pittsburgh did
not play yesterday.
Thomas, recruit outfielder of the
Cubs, showed his older teammates a
few tricks in>winning ball games. In
the first game Of a double-header
with Boston he drove home the win
ming runs with a single, and in the
second contest his double in the final
inning started a batting rally that
won the battle. Each game went
twelve innings. The Cubs won, 4 to 8
and 8 to Z.
Miljus was a target for Red bats
men during the three innings he
pitched. and the Dodgers were van
quished, to 2. I.uque scattered the
losers ten safeties. In four times at
bat Roush. Red centerfelder, got a
triple and two singles. stole base

spectators seated about the arena.
The Yale squad is big one and con-
tains a we'll balanced assortment OF

has two or three backfield groups of
the sort qualified to run loose against
lesser opponents, running up scores
through Individual excellence and
thus hiding inherent faults with the
clearly revealed when opposition is
of high character.
So Yale should watch out for this.
The time will come when the backs,
no matter how fine. will expect of
the linemen not alone a quick charge,
but general cleaning up just beyond
holes that have been opened while on
defense. The forwards will be asked
not to charge out of their positions.
