NEW DEPARTS SET
 ID GIVE BATTLE
(Continued from Preceding Page)

Since their last visit, New Britain
 has added three new members to their
 staff in the form of "Scooty' Match ton, former Fuller Brush and Columbia
 college catcher. Walter Brazil, ex-Tor- rington performer, and Art Johnson, one time Fisk pitching ace and more recently of the Torrington Tigers. The new blood has injected new life into the team. Johnson paved the way for the win over Torrington last Saturday while Big Jim Scott hurled his mates to victory over Minnetto's boys on the following day. Both these right flanders have always proved troublesome against the Bris- tolites and Manager McConn has an- nounced that each has asked for a shot" at the league leaders.
 The New Departures will pin their faith in the right arm of Tommy Tracy or the respective left fins of Eddie Goodridge and Lester Lanning. This trio has steered the Bristolites through number of stormy disturb ances and have placed them on the top rung of the ladder in the league The entire team has been putting strenuous licks of practice turing the past week and are confi- lent that they will meet the visitors with more than enough opposition. The game will be called at 2 p. m. (standsrd time).

DAILY EDITORIAL
Value of Radio
By DIR. FRANK CRANE.

CCORDING to Doctor A. Duncan Yokum, Professor OF
"A Educational Research Of the University OF PennsyL-
vania the RADIO the motion picture and the automo-
bile have turned educational methods upside down.
''The average child says Doctor Yokum, who has
radio gaining of knowledge of the world he lives in
than by the weeducaed of fifty years
ago. The children have grasped the scientific construction
of the radio in way that their parents What we,
as parents do to teach them how to apply all
Of this of real experience that coming into their
lives 1t has become task make the child arculate
of the world about him. /"
Doctor Yokum recommended the "project method" to
teachers which consists in training the pupils to put INTO
actual practice the scientific theories that have been ex
planned them The project method develops the skill OF
the pupil by showing him how to make some pracCcal
article by scientific By this bewlderlng
of details made clear and the child gwen more
complete understanding Of the world about him.
Twenty-Five years ago. Doctor Yokum sad the phrases
which were used by educational writer's were training
the mind mental discipline" and Strengthening the
faculties These phrases indicate type OF education IN
bearing upon any which the pupils be required
to perform out in the world, any problem which they
will have to solve any undertaking in which they may be
interested.
discipline according to the DOCTOR should take but sgnt
account Of the usefulness of any subject IN dealing with
which the discipline is to be gained.
Those who abandoning such phrases those quoted
above maintain that pupils should be required to acquire
such knowledge and such experience as ney WI" nave
use for in everyday life. :.
According to this fact, pupil cannot do, outside OF
school ANYTHING essentially different from that which ne
has done in school Also he will accomplish more the
acouon of knowledge and skill II he interested IN MS
tasks than if he is not interested them and does not feel
any desire to attack them
More and more education is becoming practical nat

CARRETTP. SERVISS ON WHAT IS
THE MATTER WITH SUN
Changes in Climate Show Solar Body Is Variable
and May Produce Calamity

general average, has been sufii-
Gent to upset the seasons in some
places to an uncomfortable de-
gree, to say the least. A con-
siderable greater failure would
unquestionably have disastrous
results. Is there, then, any rea-
son to expect an increase in the
suns variability?
Perhaps not, but at the same
time it may be significant with
reference to this question that
the geological history Of the earth
speaks of times in the remote
past when things happened that
might well have been the result,
in some cases Of great increase
in the suns radiation, and in
other cases of similarly great
decrease.
The real cause Of the great ice
ages, with their intervening periods
of high temperature, has never
been unveiled-at least not to
everybody's satisfaction. Neither
is the reason known why, during
a long past age, the polar regions
of the earth were the scene Of
almost tropical life, where now
only continents and sea roofs OF
ice and eternal snow exist.
II we did not see in the
heavens around us some very con-
spicuous examples Of stars, far
greater than our sun, but resem.
bling it in constitution, which
vary sometimes very irregularly,
and often enormously, in the
amount of their radiation, we
might not be willing to think
that such a thing could happen
with him; but with these in
stances before cur eyes, consid-
cred together with the MOVIES
tablished fact that he actually
does vary irregularly, though but
to a small extent, we can hardly
shut out the consideration that
at times these variations may at
tain a calamitous magnitude.
AS far as we yet know, man
began his career on the earth in
the latest ice age, so that, II
that strange geological event was
actually due to a change of solar
radiation, human history has not
been long enough to cover q re-
turn swing of the pendulum.
The present studies of the suns
radiation constitute, perhaps, the
most important work that astrono-
mers have ever undertaken.
