SCOTT BREAKS HIS
 CONTINUITY RECORD
Forced to Stay out of Game
 After 1907 Straight

New York, May 1.--EYerett Scott ot Auburn, Indiana yesterday gave way before lame knees after playing in 1897 consecutive games of major league baseball.
 One June %, l916, as a member Of the Boston Red Sox Scott start cd on a record that no other athlete has approached on q baseball dia- mond. Day after day, year after year he vas seen Tn his accustomed position, racing for warm hits and throwing out his opponents until he became known as one Of the games greatest defensive players.
 Twice in the span of almost fen years th" veteran shorts'op has been in danger Of losing his msgni- tcsnt record. While he vas with tle Rcd Sox boil on his rock put Him ou' of action for a full day but rain rushed to his aid and pre>entrd thn game. Three years ago ho was near disaster while visiting rrI- ti ti 0 lls i4'I Ia "a i U d III VI fi tl1l ring h!s progress 10 Chicago where the Yankees and White Sox were playing. Scott commandeered con veE2uces right and left and was In l,is position in the last few innings. Scot. succeeded Hcinie Wagner az shor's'op in Boston in 1914 and came 10 New York for the 1922 sea son vhcN Roger Pcckinrsugh. now with the champion Washington Sen aiors, departed. Since his arrival in New York he has participated in 16 wor'! series games. all Of them against the Giants Of the National }cagUe.
 Scott doabrI the major lcague record for play if consecutive games the former mark having been ho1 by George ?, Pinknoy, with the o)I Brooklyn club of tho American ae- socia'jon an! National league from 1885 foe lS9o--577 games. Fred LuderUs. onca heavy hitting first has'msn o' the Phillies, held the moder0 fg"roS. having played in 533 straight gamrs from 1916 to 1912. Tna minor league record of I.121 games was credited to Perry Lipo ta the Virginia and South At 'ar'jc leagues.
 ThrouEhou' 'ha accomplishment o' his remarkable record Scott has maintained a high fielding average, the poorest var being 19tT when lis fF'lros ncre .3:&. But he has l"oa almost 'rss than a mediocre &tttor. a''hoUgh recognized as 2 dangerous batsrnar with runners on tEc lrsta.

TO Live or to Learn?

m HIS is the time of year to talk of creating
l new Cabinet jobs. It is always done in
the period preceding session of Congress.
Congress itself finally fattens the talk out, for
it has about all the Cabinet officials to deal
with that it wants
A Department of Health is one of the new
proposals and Department of Education is
another That would give us a Secretary of
Health and Secretary of Education in addi-
ton to our present list of secretaries.
James A. Tobey, of the Institute for Gov
eminent Research is the principal sponsor APP
parently for the proposed Department of
Health and he is taking an unfair advantage
of the forces that want Department of Edu-
cation statement to the press put out by
his office includes this startling assertion:
'Mr Tobey predicted that the average
length of life in this country would probably
be increased from its present amount of fifty
eight years to about seventy years in the next
quarter of a century and said that an effective
Federal health leadership under central direc-
ton would be one of the biggest factors in this
accomplish ment. "
Obviously the earnest little band behind
the idea Of Department of Education cannot
compete with this offer Twelve years longer
to live! Twelve healthy years at that! AS
between living learning more, most of us
will hardly hesitate. We'd rather live than
learn
Seriously, a Deparm of Health is not
on the cards at this time any more than De-
partment Of Education Anything that can be
done to simplify and coordinate the functions
OF the various government agencies concerned
with health, should be done. Establishing a
complete new department isn't the way 1t
would be too long a step in the direction Of
Federal control of our habits Of life.
A secretary Of health to tell us how to
breathe and a secretary of education to tell lis
what to believe. That would meet the ap-
proval of some enthusiasts, but hardly of the
country as whole.

Don't BE Born On a
FARM

TC7BASH goes another illusion.
~ Long has the farm been sung as the
birthplace of great men, but now come the Ma
States Bureau of Education with facts and
figures to show that the lantern on the pillow
throws not nearly so long beam as once
imagined.
The first organization has made study of
tn origins of great men from 1870 to the
out of every 100000 farm boys only 223
stand much chance of landing in Who's Who
Out of 100000 city boys, however, $50 may
become famous.
Of the 24,278 men and women in the last
issue of Who's Who only 6,288 were born on
farms, while 1890 were born in cities, towns
or villages The association points out IN
research bulletin that most of the 24,27S ia
nous folks were born at time when 70 per
cent of the nation population lived on farms.
Reason for this difference in opportunity,
according to the United States bureau, lies in
great discrepancy between country and town
school facilities The bureau has compiled sta
tistics received from 500 county school super
intendents These show that during the past
year an average of $6839 was spent on each
rural school pupil and an average of $1OO64
on each city school pupil.
City schools during the year were kept
open from one to two months longer than rural
schools and city teachers were paid 40 per
cent larger salaries than rural teachers

minlstration and ordinary Indian
apolis citizens to think about.
While the citys recreation CEN
ters swarmed with children with
out an accident. children playing IN
the streets and elsewhere were
tramped into pavements and dis
membered. Young bathers
drowned in gravel pits, White
River, and Fall Creek-and would
have drowned in Pleasant Run if
they could have broken through
the crust of typhoid germs on the
bosom Of that noble stream.
The best service the park board
can render the city is development
of swimming pools, Fairgrounds
and park recreation centers where
children and their elders can play
in the opea air without danger or
cost. Public funds spent thus, in
stead of landscaping and manicur-
ing additional acreage, will yield
rich returns.
1t is nice. Of course, for the park
board to give the Mayor a much
needed park in Golden Hill on
which he can rest his eyes after
a hard week in vaudeville. But
supervised playground in Bright
wood or Haughville where the little
boys and girls can grow appetites
and red corpuscles in safety is
worth more to the public than
Golden Hill park or the Hanging
Gardens of Babylon.

a Sane Program

IT HE statement of policy made by Ansel R.
l Harris new deputy district administra-
tor of prohibition is one that should meet the
approval of everyone interested in the enforce
ment of law.
Harris in his statement said that search
warrants for liquor would be obtained only on
proper affidavit and that there would be no
midnight parading of authority through the
homes Of innocent persons. He made it clear,
however, that if there is good evidence that
the law is being violated he would not hesitate
to make searches.
ga man s home is his castle, " Harris said,
"but if he forgets it should be a castle and
makes a brewing plant out of it or a storage
house he loses the right to be lnmolested.
''In other words, if people, by violating
the law, force us to enter their homes to en-
force the law, we will meet their conditions.
This is a sensible statement Mr. Harris
is on the job for the purpose of enforcing the
prohibition law The prohibition law should
be enforced But Mr. Harris does not propose
to break other and just as important laws in
the name of prohibition enforcement.
If local police officers constables, deputy
sheriffs, State policemen and horse thief detec-
tives would pursue the same policy there could
be no complaint.

The Mcnamara Verdict

TINE of the hardest problems that has al
III ways been faced by organized labor IS
that of combating its enemies within its ranks
The conviction of John J. Mcnamara in Grim
inal Court of blackmail brings this fact once
more to the attention of the public.
Organized labor frequently is judged by
the agitators and law breakers of the Me
Namara type. Happily, these individuals con-
stitute only a small minority, but their pres
ence is often seized upon by enemies of labor
to make a case.
The Mcnamara case grew out of quarrel,
not between labor and capital, but between
union clements It was a quarrel that could
very easily have been settled peaceably. New
ertheless,- it resulted in threats and in violence
such as no community could tolerate.
Labor unions were among the first to take
up the case of the Elks Club and other out
RACES. They insisted-very properly-on the
arrest and conviction of the persons respon-

time there was a long list Of cases in which

twenty-one persons lost their lives Mona
mara was arrested among others in this case
and pleaded guilty, serving prison sentence
of over nine years. After his release from
prison he returned to indianapolis, where he
again took up labor activities, these activities
resulting in his most recent conviction.
