electrical or operating characteristics
are concerned. 1t is unfortunate in
some ways that the new tubeS-that is,
tubes having different operating char

nounced at the same time that the
new standardized base was announced
1t is also unfortunate that the tube
manufacturers have not been consist

differences in tube bases and operating
characteristics in the same Way-that
is, by using the letter part Of the

of athletics in order to find out
definitely what makes one man a star

hopes to show to what extent athletic
training develops those factors which

speed, intelligence, endurance,
strength and judgment are being COM

athletes by their instructors and
coaches.
In order to measure the speed with
which different athletes respond to

has been devised. A series of pictures
is shown to the athlete, and as soon
as he sees each one and recognizes its

Asserts Ball Player
Needs Brains to Keep Him in Spotlig ght

The most valuable gift q base ball
or foot ball player can have isn't ex-
traordinary strength or endurance or
oven speed. All of these won't keep
him in the spotlight Of famea if he
lacks brains, according to tests being
made by DIR. c. II. Bean, psychologist
at the University of Louisiana.
The quality which Red Grange. II
linois foot ball star, regards as most
important in his success really comes
second, said DIR. Bean. This quality
has been described as ''the perceiving
Of motion of several men in terms Of
a players own motion, so that he
knows where all of them will be
when he himself reaches a desired
position"
but Intelligence is so important in
this" explains DR.. Bean, that If in
telligence is left out-as it can be. by
mathematical. calculation-the mere
speed of reaction to a situation is
secondary"

the subject of dreams has been dis

have furnished themes to composers
Of all types. Smith delved into the
subject and found an apparently in

seemed as though every composer had
written about dreams. Thirty COM
positions for voice and instrument
were finally chosen. and then these
were carefully reviewed, eliminations

the thousands of years of customs which reIegated them to household seclusion, if their husbands were wealthy, and to animal-like drudgery in the fields if welded to poor men.
 Recent surveys of economic con- ditions show that many banks and other commercial concerns are en- ploying women of the middle and higher classes, and that many are becoming members of learned pro- fessions Many Shanghai banks em- ploy Chinese girls as student clerks. training them for positions as stenographers and secretaries.
 Young women clerks, to the astonishment of those who knew China a decade ago, are commonly used in commercial houses of numerous cities. Women are adding greatly to the wealth of the coun- try.
 Factory and mill work is largely done by Chinese women in ports such as Canton, Hankow, Tientsin, Shanghai and Hongkong, where white influence is felt. They are used in the manufacture of jute and hosiery and in weaving of cotton.
 In native villages and in agricul- tural districts, however, women's progress is slower. They continue the patient and eXacting care and feeding of silk worms, or work in rain and mud with men tilling the fields.

MOVIE STARS PICK

Culver City, Cal. July 30 Pl- Names of movie stars suit their per sonalities and if those possessed are not satisfactory more suitable ones should be provided.
 So believe the players in Metro Goldwyn- Mayer studios, in adyanc- ing reasons why many of the film actors assume other than their own cognomens.
 Ramon Navarro's name, for ex- ample, was intended to inspire TO- mantle thoughts of Spanish dons, while this effect would perhaps be nullifed, it was thought, by the act ual prefix of Samaniego, his borth- name. None would associate the name of Olga Cronk with the fair, English type of beauty which char acterizes Claire Windsor, and so Olga Cronk is a name long forgot ten.

Fire Greater Enemy of North Woods Than Beasts

St. Paul, July 30 Pl-Touched by the moaning of countless mother birds and the misery of the entire forest family following man-caused forest fires, Ranger C. s. Lind of the Minnesota forest service, urges suspension of fishing privileges which takes respectable killers from the city and self-styled sports" into the woods during the danger ous spring fire season.
 He estimated that 1926 spring confagrations, eight per cent of which were started by fishermen, destroyed more game in two days than all the game poachers have killed in the same territory since game protection became a law"
 Ranger Lind in a report to his chief, told Of the misfortune over taking innumerable lawn calf moose and the smaller species. Scores of burned and maimed young deer and moose were found after the fire. Most of them had to be destroyed for lack of facilities to care for them in the isolated woods.
