Rome, Dec. 22.-The advent of the
Fascist government to power will have
favorable Influence upon the develop
ment of sport and athletics in Italy.
Premier Mussolini's cabinet is compos-
ed mostly of young men between the
ages of 80 and 40, the majority of
whom at some time or another have
taken active part iii some branches of
athletics and have retained a deep in
terest in sports. Mussohnl himself
is an expert fencer and his under sec
rotary of state, Finzi, besides being
one of Italy's most renowned aviatOrs
was at one time one of the best 5000
metre runners in the peninsula.
The first effects of the assumption
of leadership of the government by
Mussolini, in the field of sports, al
| ready has been seen in the promise
made by the premier that %appropria-
lions of funds to defray the expenses
of the Italian Olympic team to Paris
in 1924, would be Forthcoming. The
Olympic preparation in Italy, which
had been stagnant throughout the
summer owing to lack of funds and
consequent lukewarm enthusiasm, has
taken on new lease of life, and follow
ers of athletics in Italy are rejoicing
The preparation of the Italian Olympic
team will be directed especially to-
ward the five and ten thousand metre
races, and the marathon.
Best in Distance Events
Although sprints will not be en-
elected, the Italian Olympic commit
tee feels that they have better mater
ial for the distance events. tommenc-
ing Sunday November, 90, when a full
distance marathon was run at Milan,
there will be five thousand and ten
thousand meter races in various cities
of Italy. Milan. Turin. Genoa, Naples
or Rome. about twice a month. 1t is
the intention of the committee to have
four full Olympic distance marathons
run between now and the departure
of the Italian team for Paris in 1924.
The last one will take place about
January, 1924.
Signor Tonetti, vice president of
the committee. is ~sanguine that Italy
has a first class chance of carrying
off the blue ribbons of the Olympic
games. In Arri Valerie, of Turin. and
Hugo Fregorio, of Milan, Italy claims
to have discovered worthy successors
to Dorando pietri. whose dramatic
failure in the marathon at London and
subsequent races in America against
Tom Longboat. Johnny Hayes and Al
fred Schrubb. are well remembered in
sporting cirles. Both Valerie and
Fregorio can run all day. What they
lack just now is final speed for the
last two or three miles. However,
they have both negotiated the distance
well under two hours and 80 minutes.
In the 5000 metres Italy will pre-
| sent Ernesto Arbrosini, of Milan, and
Primo Brega of Rome. Ambrosini ran
a good second to Paovo Nurni al Paris

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH NOT
OPPOSED TO. SHEPPARD
TOWNER ACT

There has been so much misunder-
standing about the Sheppard Towner
act, that the state board of health de-
sires to set forth to those who not
knowing the provisions a concise state
ment containing the correct informa-
ton.
This act provides for the promotion
of the welfare and hygiene of materni-
ty and infancy and it is most probable
that the reason the act has been so
heavily opposed is because it's provi-
sions have been generally misunder-
stood.
What the state board of health de-
sires to particularly stress is two
things: first, that there is no COM
pulsory registration of expectant
mothers and that only on her express
sion of desire will she be supplied with
educational material. She will not be
troubled at any time any more than
she is at present. Second, there will be
no federal inspectors to "pry" into the
intimate lives of any people of this
state.
This act provides $4,000 for admin
istrative work in Washington, and it is
quite obvious that this sum will not
provide salaries for many "prying" in
spectors.
The Sheppard Towner act simply
turns over sum of money over to the
state officials who are to spend it. as
they think best, in the promotion of the
welfare and hygiene of maternity and
infancy.
This bill does not provide for the In
vasion of state rights by government
agencies; nor does it provide for the
forced registration or compulsory ex-
animation Of expectant mothers;
neither does it exercise a jurisdiction
over the rearing and training of chill
dren.
With funds provided by the Shep-
pard Towner act, it is hoped to reach
the mother in the most remote sections
of the state whose babies dies year
after year as the result of her lack of
knowledge of the fundamentals of
collaborating and embarrassing and sup
ply her with educational material that
will enable her to have healthy, happy
children who will be a credit TO the
state as we'll as TO herself
Let us not forget that at present
more than eighteen hundred babies die
each year before reaching the age of
one year.

ONE REEL YARNS
cHANoiNs UNCLE JoHN

Over the desk in the living room
hung picture OF Great-Uncle John
Stacia could not remember when he
had not been there. He was a stiff =
looking man with very heavy eyebrows
and a high collar. Stacia had often
heard her mother speak OF what a fine
man he had been.
Sometimes Stacia would make faces
at the picture. but he frowned back at
her solemnly. Then she would shake
her fist at him, but he never paid any
attention to her.
when Stacia's mother went west for
several months because OF her health
and Stacia was left to be housekeeper,
her FIST thought was to fix over some
of tie rooms. and do some OF the
things she had long wanted to do.
Among the first of these was to get
rid OF Great-Uncle John. It seemed
to her that he cast a shadow over the
whole living room. So she mounted
a chair and pulled Uncle John down
from his nail.
Then she stopped to think of what
to do with him. She couldn't throw
him away. That was out OF the ques-
ton. She couldn't put him in the
store-room, because his frame might
get broken. and her mother would be
angry when she came back.
First she put him up in the hall. but
II was unpleasant to look at him when
she first came In. She tried the kit
chen. but he bothered her when she
was rushing about trying to cook.
There was no use trying to put him
in her fathers room. And she Just
couldn't stand him in her own.
She put him IN the pantry, but Uncle

AVOID HYGIENE FANATICS URGES
LECTURER.

Social hygiene, like every other ad-
vance movement, has its 'lunatic
fringe" it's self-appointed advocates,
earnest, well-meaning men and women
who lack nothing but discretion. a
sense of proportion, and a conception
of what to say and what not to say.
For this reason the American Social
Hygiene association does not give
credit to every person who wishes to
enroll as a social hygiene lecturer, and
unauthorized lecturers are not to be
taken as representing the ideas and
carrying out the plans of the associa-
ton. The sincere lady who forgets
that high school girls are not third
year medical students and that inti-
mate details of vice are no help to a
young mother, the excited gentleman
who gathers statistics from the sur
rounding air and uses them as thun-
derbolts, the alarmist the extremist,
