ask What's the matter7"
For the first time since iris

In the 1S years that Speaker

NEW YORK, July 7.-(United
Press)-JohnsA. Heydler. president
OF the National League. after an ex-
haustive study and observation, gives
the opinion that the American
League leads his circuit in home run
hitting because OF the many short
fences In the younger league.
Summed up. Heydler points out
that the American League has eight
short right field fences 10 shoot at,
while the National League has only
FIVE
The Cincinnati. Pittsburgh and
Boston National League parks have
fences that are almost out of reach
for a slugger under the Ruth type.
Leaving Ruth out OF the figures.
because he has been one in genera
ton. the percentage in favor Of the
American League is hardly eight 10
five.
In defining the slugger. the home
run hitter is given the preference
because OF the natural appeal OF a
ball smacked over the fence.
It would seem more fair how
ever. to consider the three base hit
ter because under the present condi-
tions with short fields st is more dif-
fcult to nit a triple because the ball
has to be dropped at a bare spot
within the confines Of the fences.
Stretching a point, It might be
granted that the league with the
most three base hitters Is the real
sluEging organization. Leaving Ruth
again out OF the reckoning, the Ma
tional League has the greater num-
Der Of three-bagger stars.
Counting sixteen made by Ruth,
the American League hit e94 triples
last season as against go poled out
bv National League stars. The fol-
lowing table shows the leaders in
both leagues:

AUTO DRIVERS ARE
 GAINING RAPIDLY More Than 15,OOO Increase Is
 Seen Every Year

Announcement by Superintendent Robert T. Hurley of the state police to the effect that ,00O applicants for drivers licenses have been exam ined by his department in the past nine months indicates that the mum Der of automobile drivers in Connec- ticut is increasing at the rate of about 15,000 a year. Since there were 156,- 467 operators registered last year, it is therefore likely that the number of Connecticut drivers will exceed 170,- OnO this year. At the new rate of S3 for each licensed operator, this twill mean an income of over q half million dollars from this source alone.
 State Police Examine.
 This is the first nine months that the examination of applicants for drivers licenses has been entirely in the hands of the state police. Prior to the reorganization of the state po- lice department last July, in accord ancc with an get adopted by the 1921 session of the legislature, all this work was attended to by an inspec- tion division of the mot tor vehicle
 
 1921 act, however, the inspection di- vision was merged with the old state police force, thus forming the nucleus of the present state police depart mcnt
 New Highway Guards.
 Superintendent Hurley said yester- day that present plans for the motor vehicle season contemplated the as- signment of fifty state policemen 10 highway patrols, including eXamina- ton work along their respective beats" on scheduled days. During the height of the motoring season, more than 5000 miles of Connecticut high ways will be regularly patroled by the state police.
 Fees for Road Work.
 It was emphasized by Superintend- ont Hurley that, although officers are to accept the fee of S2 for f giving examinations to applicants, this money is turned into the state | treasurer for transfer to the high 1 way department for road repair work. There has been an impression that | these fees were retained by the off ,ers themselves. but Superintendent Hurley pointed out that the state po- icemen are on salary and receive no 'ees in addition to their regular com oensation from the state.
 The area of Afghanistan is 21o,OOO | quare miles.

AQUARIUM FISHES
 LET GO IN SUMMER
Miami Exhibits Release Speci- mems During warm Weather

Miami Fla, April 20.-With the exception Of few specimens shipped to institutions in New York and Phil adelphia, the hundreds Of fish in inc Miami Aquarium which exhibited themselves during winter to tourists and homefolk interested in "flshol- ogy' have begun their summer vaca- tons They have been returned to the Atlantic ocean and have headed toward their native haunts among the Florida Keys or in the Gulf stream
 Tanks Are Dry.
 Tho glass tanks In the Aquarium which scientists say contain during the winter months ono of the greatest varieties of marine life in the world arc empty during the summer and are so dry a fiddler crab could hardly exist in them. In the fall fishermen, familiar with the habits of the yari- ous species, go after them with nets, traps and hook and line and in a short time have enough to rcstocl them.
 Are Well Fed
 The job of releasing the fish is a difficult one and has been reduced al- most to a science. All winter the finny visitors have lived off the fat of the land and their food has come while they have hardly Tipped a fin for if. When they arc liberated it is different story Care must be talk en to free the smaller specimens first and give them ample time 10 get ont of the way of the big fellows.
  the fish which spent the winter in the Aquarium and have just been liber. ated will return to the tanks again in the fall, Caring for the fish nay after day, employees of the institution learn to recognize various fnny guests by scars or other markings and al- most invariably few of those roleas cd in the spring will be found in inc tanks again when the fishermen bring in fres1 specimens.

Hungry Russian Women Find Smok-

Moscow, April 1S.--Russian women
 have found that tobacco slaves off hunger, hence the number of women who smoke cigarettes has increased materially since the soviets came into power. Women of all ages and classes smoke in their rooms, in the trains, in the restaurants and shops, and it is not uncommon to sec them smok- ing on the streets.
 All through the dark days of the revolution, often when food was not to be had at any price, there was plenty of cigarette tobacco offered at reasonable prices With the equality of the sexes established under com munism and a breakdown of con- ventionalities the women promptly adopted smoking as the first of their newly acquired privileges.
