In July. however. the tide OF trade
turned and the balance once again
began to pile up in favor OF the
United States. Shipments OF gold. OF
course, tend to correct the situation
but only in part.
Gold shipments arc deplored Just
now because the United States has
more of the yellow metal than any
other country In the world. The
presence of gold tends to initiate
prices of commodities.

London Ball Rooms Confused

The beginning OF the dance season
finds London's bathrooms in state
of confusion because of the introduce
ton of the "Blues"-the slow.
dreamy version Of the fox-trot-and
the speeding up OF the ordinary fox
trot.
On the crowded floor of one of the
most exclusive West End dance clubs
this week the dancers. including one
Of the Princes. moved gracefully
enough during fox trot. but the
playing of the Blues disorganized
them and turned them into a jostling.
humping. awkwardly-mo crowd
OF perpleXed people.
Some moved slowly to the music.
and some took quick steps. Others
practised In corners. trying to learn
to dance to the slow music. There
were continual collisions.
To less extent the speedier fox
trot is worrying dancers not ac-
customed to the quicker music.
What Is described as a "syncopated
walk" is being danced to the quicker
music instead of last years steps.
Al present dancing is largely n
matter of deep concentration and
tense looks.

What is the advantage of
using prearranged plays from
out of bounds, and how are the
signals given for such a play ?
Answered by
EARL WIGHT
Coach University Of California, the
"siege gun" Of West Coast basketball.
Originator of many new plays and
formations which teams throughout
the country have adopted.
Plays from out Of bound are much
more valuable to a team than plays
from the center position, and should
therefore receive relatively more at
tention from the coach and players.
Prearranged plays from out OF
bounds are more apt to be success
full because the opposing team has
less time to arrange IL systematic
defense.
These plays can most logically be
determined by the position of the
ball as related to the field of play.
Play Is too fast and situations are
too complex to allow signals between
players in this type of game.

DOVE SEASON OPENS
IN GE0PGIl FRIDAY
But Hunters Who Shoot These
Birds Then VIII Violate Fed
eYal Game Law

ATLANTA, July 30.-Under the
law of Georgia it will be legal to
shoot doves from August l to 81
inclusive and the hunting season
for 1924 accordingly will open at
that time, it was learned at the
state capitol today. This legisla-
ton, however, is in conflict with
the national law, and game wardens
say they would not advise anyone
to shoot these birds until Novem-
Der 20, when the state and fed
eral laws agree.
The law governing the killing of
doves regulates the daily bag to 25.
There are two periods each year
in which this class of game may be
killed under Georgia law, respec-
lively August l to 81 and Novem-
Der 20 to March /. The national
Jaw extends from November 20 to
January 81. The first period Of
1924, which soon opens, was ar
ranged, it was thought, because the
birds in Georgia leave that section
before November.
The season on squirrels of the
"cat' variety opens on October
and closes March 1. Two deer
may be killed in season. This
season will open November 1 and
close December 81.
Summer Or wood duck nav be
allied from September L to January
II understhe Georgia law, bit the
national law prohibits the killing
Of either wood or summer duck.
Migratory duck may be killed I'M
der the Georgia law from Septem-
her to April 20. The national
Iaw gives the dates as November /
to January 81.
The season on plovers opens No

law requires the season to open on
