WESTERN STATES
LEAD IN PER CENT

East May Claim Better COL
Ieges, but West Has
the Attendance,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21-Do you
want to go to college? If so. you
should have picked as a home State
Oregon, Utah, Iowa, Kansas, Ne
braska or Washington.
These are the ones which send the
largest proportion OF their population
to the universities. even though some
of the best institutions are east OF
the Mississippi, according to George
r. Zook. specialist in higher education
in the Bureau of Education.
Tennessee, Arkansas and New Mex.
leo are not strong for higher educa.
ton for their young men and women.
Low figures in the South are partly
due to the large negro population,
however.
Another interesting fact" says DR..
Zook. us that the well-developed Mid
die Western and far Western States
exceed the other states In the proper.
ton Of their students that are taken
care of In their own institutions.
THE average for all the States is
F4.9 per cent. In other words, taking
the country as a whole, three stu
dents out Of every four go to univer-
sity or college in their home State.
California, Oregon, Utah, Michigan,
Nebraska and New York lead the
other States in this respect New
Jersey is at the bottom OF the list.
She accommodates only 1872 per cent
of her students in her own institu.
tions.
"Other States not very good at
taking care Of their boys and girls
within their own borders are Con-
necticut, Wyoming, Delaware, Idaho
and New Mexico"
DIR. Zook urges tightening up on the
entrance requirements, New York
State now requires high school stu
dents to make average standings
quite above passing mark before col
lege entrance diplomas are given.
Boucher College requires an average
high school record of 80 per cent.
Kansas, DR.. Zook states, is now in
the unfortunate position of having
to admit to the State higher insti.
tuitons all graduates of accredited
high schools This state of arTairs
permits boys and girls who may have
taken vocational high school courses
to enter college curricula for which
they are totally unprepared. Trunks, -
ICONS" and similar difficulties familiar
in all university life are the result.
The financial problem of teaching
all these boys and girls is quite
enough for universities and coTeges
to grapple with, according to DR.. Zook,
but the waste of human Ynayerial,
when high school students who are
not Of college caliber want to go to
school, is by far the most important
part Of 1t.

NEW YORK. Aug. 21-Previous monthly
sales records for Peerless cars were sur
passed in July by the Boston. Cleveland and
Warrington agencies. Total sales reported
by the eight branches total nearly 50 ,000.-
600. This record. coming Immediately after
the June sales which were greater than
those for any preceding month are regarded
as important because they occurred in the
slack seasonal period.

IN STREET TRADE
Renewal Of Constructive
Tendency Evidenced by
Activity Of InduStriaIS,
The WALL STREET JOURNAL

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-Prices
moved irregularly in the early deal
ings on the stock exchange today, re-
fecting the same influences which
overturned Mondays fluctuations.
News developments were without par
ticular significance as an immediate
factor. Changes in the list were
principally caused by operations of
professional traders. Variations from
the previous close among industrial
leaders were confined to fractions,
mostly on the down side as result of
further profit-taking.
First Hour
Professional attempts to force the
reaction further, encountered stub
born resistance. Prices among indus
trial leaders yielded slightly, but the
recessions were so small they indicated
the presence of substantial buying or
ders under the market. Despite the
sluggishness of the main body Of
stocks. special issues displayed pro-
nounced strength. Gulf States Steel
reached a new high on the movement
at 1885, rejecting the difficulties of
an over extended short interest.
Second Hour
Following the irregularity of the
first hour, indications Of a renewal of
last weeks constructive leadership
were evidenced by activity in indus
trials. This tendency was especially
marked in American Can, which slim
ulated the whole market by the ease
with which it marched up to a new
high at 9SA. Studebaker, Baldwin,
and other speculative leaders de-
veloped a stronger tone and bullish
demonstration was staged in the in
dependent steels in the wake OF the
Gulf States advance.
Noon Hour
IndustriaIs continued to display
relative bouyancy, with independent
steels maintaining the leadership.
Bethlehem reached a new high at
5215 on recognition of the difference
in the situation affecting this issue
from what it was three months ago
when the stock had to absorb the ad-
ditional offerings resulting from the
meyers with Lackawanna and Mid
vale. Bethlehem earnings are on the
upgrade. Copper, regarded as a

advanced to E new high.
Twenty active industrials Monday
averaged 91.71, off 10; twenty active
rails averaged 1853, off IS.

WILSON MEETS PAL REED
IN COMEBACK CAMPAIGN

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-Tohnny
Wilson, former middleweight cham.
pion, will make another step in his
comeback campaign on Friday night
when he goes against Pal Reed
the Boston middleweight, In a
twelve-round contest at the Arena
A. A., in Boston. According to
Frank NARROW, Wilson is now in
the form that he attained just be-
fore the boxing commission sus-
pended him.
Ever since his reinstatement Will
son has been training hard. He
recently made a big hit with the
Boston fans when he handed out a
severe lacing to George Robinson,
"a negro ight-heavyweight, and in
response to a demand for his serv-
ices Wilson agreed to meet any
middleweight the club could secure
for him. The match with Reed is
the result.
If Wilson succeeds in beating
Reed, NARROW will make a formal
demand for a. match with Harry
Greb for the middleweight title.
Greb has agreed to meet Wilson,
but has deferred signing a contract
for the bout.

Yale Has Chance For
Two Victories In

Yale has a difficult mental
situation to contend with in
New Haven. For the first
time in seven years the Ellis
appear to have q chance Of de-
feating their rivals in the Big
Three. Yale's generous display
Of modern football against the
Army and the decisive victory
in that game have keyed under
graduate and graduate enthusi-
asm up to high pitch. There
Is always danger Of overconfi-
dence when the supporters of
an eleven are SO sure Of VIC
tory.
The elevens Of the Big Three
have been fairly evenly matched
in recent years. There are no
more games in which one team
or the other simply tries to
keep down the score. All are
out for victory now. There are
no more topheavy scores. The
margin is slight.
