Boys Club Minstrels
Make Good Impression

The Boys club minstrel show held
in the club gymnasium last evening
was complete success and made
such a favorable impression on the
audience that 1t will be repeated
twice. Tomorrow afternoon 1t will
be given at the town farm, and ar
rangements are being made to re-
produce it at an early date at the
Newington Home for Crippled Chill
dren.
The Individual song and dance
numbers of the show were loudly ap-
plauded and every one was encored.
while the chorus singing by the en-
tire group of boys was especially
good and ELECTED much favorable
comment. A laughable diversion
was created when Andrew Kobela, in
the role of an expressman. rushed
in and nearly broke up the show,
but he was finally quoted down and
induced to sing a number for the
audience. None of the members of
the cast had had any experience in
this line before which made the
result achieved all the more credit
able. The show was directed by
Mrs. A. c.. Sundberg, president of
the Boys Club Ladies' auxiliary, and
John J. Cream.
The performance tomorrow after
noon at the town farm will begin at
ESQ o'clock. The boys are asked to
meet at 2 o'clock at the club.

HOW TO REDUCE SURELY AND SAFELY
EXPLAINED BY HARVARD PROFESSOR
Conscientious Self Denial and Rigorous Adherence to
Course of Action Adopted is Essential

4-Include a moderate amount of
fresh milk and plenty of fresh fruit
and vegetables in your diet.
5-Reduce at consistent rate Of
about one pound per week. Thus, if
you are 25 pounds overweight, plan
to take at least six months to bring
your weight to normal.
This program. DR.. Fairhall said,
was for ''the frankly obese" For
tho-e who are moderately over
weight-those who have travelled
only a moderate distance on the
road to obesity-the program is
somewhat similar" he added.
Merely an increased amount of ex-
ercise and proper regulation and
consistent reduction in food intake
somewhat below your requirement
viii soon restore your weight to
normal.
above all, the success of reduc-
ing, depends upon the individual.
Conscientious self-denial and rigor-
Gus adherence, to the course Of ac
ton adopted will inevitably bring
results.
THE increased ease Of living and
buoyancy that comes with the dis
carding OF excess weight more than
repays the slight drudgery involved"

Cambridge, Mass, Feb. Is (UP)
A question that is paramount in
the minds OF many-how to get thin
has been answered by member
of the faculty of the Harvard Med
ical school.
DR.. Lawrence T. Fairhall, instruc-
tor in physiology. is the authority
of this good news for plump peo-
pie. He has listed five steps which
should be taken by those who wish
TO reduce.
Submit to a thorough physical
examination by your physician to
discover any possible serious disease
of the heart or kidneys. A possible
diabetic condition should not be ov-
erlooked. Do not attempt, on any
account, to reduce without the ad-
vice Of your physician.
Arrange definite course of
action and stick to it. Do not
break training" by eating an occa-
sional rich meal. You are wasting
your time in trying to reduce un-
less you consistently guard yourself
against tempting foods.
with the approval OF your
physician the restricted diet should
be supplemented with exercise suit
ed to your individual needs.

WANTS J. s. EXPELLED
New International Soccer Federation May Be Formed Because of Latest Movement.

New York, Feb. LP>-The request of central European soccer organiza- tions to the international federation for the expulsion of the United States from the body. may result in the formation of new international SOC Ger federation. Officials of the sport here have suggested that Canada. England, Scotland and the United States band together In a new or ganiZation.
 The central European organza- tions have protested to the interna- tional federation that the United States, through the American Soc cer league, has been signing Euro pean soccer stars already under con- tract in their native countries. The request for expulsion will be thrash ed out at the next meeting of the federation in Helsingfors, Finland. in June.
 England. Scotland and Canada have been suggested as the basis. with the United States. for q new international body ihasmuch as the former countries are not members of the present organization. The chief variance of these countries and the parent body is said to be over the amateur rule of the federation which permits the playing of amateurs who leave their work to play away from home. A player can receive no financial reward under the English and American interpretation of anna teur play.

PHILLIPS IN NEED 0F THIRD EASTMAN
"GiYe Me a Good Man and Watch
 Our Smoke" Says McInniS

Philadelphia, Feb. 1 LP - John {, (Stuffy) Mcfnnis, newly appointed manager of the Philadelphia Nation als, says he needs only a smart and active third baseman to lift the chronic second division Phillies out of the National league mire in 1927 Give me a good man and watch our smoke" is his prediction.
 Returning to the scene of his former triumphs as a member of the championship Philadelphia Athletics of more than a decade ago. McInnis already has bartered and bought new strength for almost every depart ment.
 The most notable acquisition Is George Thompson. leading second baseman of the International league last season. who came to the Phils from Buffalo. by way of the Giants in the trade that sent Catcher Butch Henline and Outfelder George Har- per to New York. Thompson. q 300 hitter with 96 home runs to his credit last season. is down for regu- lar guard duty at the middle sta tion.
 Mc1nnis will play first base when portside fingers are in the box for the opposition. he says. At other times Attreau from Norfolk in the . Virginia league. will get the call. Heinie Sand will be back at short stop with Friberg. or the much sought newcomer, on third. General utility work will fall to Russ Wright stone. a holdover and possibly Joe Buskey. a recruit from Cumberland, Md.
 Mc1nnis has quartet of slugging veterans in the outfield with Cy Will and Johnny Mokan and Al Nixon all ternating in left. Denny Sothern, who joined the club last last season, displayed enough prowess with his war clubs to warrant retention this year.
 The Phils have three backstops The veteran Jimmy Wilson, will bear the brunt of the catching burden with the aid of Clarence Jonnard, q holdover. and Harry O'Donnell, up from the International league.
 The pitching staff has been strengthened by the addition of Alex Ferguson, one-time hurler for the Boston Red Soy and Washine eton Senators in the American league and Jack Scott. secured from the Giants. Hal Carlson, right hand ace, again leads the staff, which includes IT. rich, Willoughby, Decatur. Dean and Eascht, all right handlers. Two southpaws, Mitchell. a veteran and Herb Pruett, brought back to the majors from the Pacific coast league, will be among the pitchers who leave February 27 for the spring training camp at Bradenton, Fla.

Question Of Vincent Richards Standing StiT Tennis World

New York, Feb. P,-The ques-
 tion of Vincent Richards ranking in the national amateur list arose agaln today when the former amateur star Ldeclared he had not signed a profess sional contract before the Davis cup matches and national singles last
 year.
 1 Although Richards was ranged NO.
 1 in the metropolitan list, opposition
 to a similar ranking is expected on the grounds of professionalism when the United States Lawn Tennis asso-
 citation holds it's annual meeting in
 Philadelphia Saturday.
 l Richards made his denial, not to
 further his chances for top ranking
 but to defend his good name" he
 said. It was Hong after the Davis cup and national singles that I made
 my decision to turn professional he said
 "To be exact. 1t was only five
 hours before the winner on the liner i Paris Qast falD at which the an- nouncement was made that l made up my mind. I will be glad to fur nish proof of that"
 Owing to illness, Richards will be unable to play tennis for two months. he said. He expects to leave for Europe in the spring to continue professional tennis abroad with Suz- lanne' Lenglen and other members of the troupe.

Dy Congressman Clyde Kelly of Pennsylvania-Wr for
 NEA SerVice)

Washington, Feb 1.-Baseball | has grown into Q great business en- | terprise with millions invested in permanent plants. and yearly eXpcn- ditures also mounting into the mil lions.
 But that is an insignificant phase of the situation which involves the honesty of baseball, the distinctive national sport.
 Baseball does not belong to those to the American boy. It would be better to destroy the business or ganization entirely than to make baseball a synonym for crooked and dishonest tactics in the mind of the boy
 The normal boy worships his baseball hero. He knows his record by heart. To the boy. the baseball star is q great idol. with out fear and without reproach. It is a serious thing 10 strike down that faith. The man who would do it without justification not only in jures a player; he commits crime against boyhood.
 If the conduct of organized ball is such that it kills the boys faith in its honesty. it means the destruc- ton of something greater than fine gold and precious stones. IL means putting a cynical sheer on the face of boyhood. the poison of unbelief in the heart of youth.
 The action of few crooked ball players will not work this great in jury But if it be believed that the whole organized game is riddIcd With cheating and game fixing in which honorcd and applaudrl super players have their grimy part, then indeed has American boyhool been betrayed.
 Therefore, it is Of tremendous i'm portance that while every crook should be driven out of baseball. no honest player should be branded a sa crook.
 Congress is not interested in baseball? It is too mimportant" We are laboriouSly dealing with questions not onc-tenth as impor- tant as that of keeping faith with the American boys. twenty millions of them under the age Of 1 s today. We are devoting attention to prob lcms of groups. while baseball holds the interest of every community in America.
 Congress has no power? There iS mandate for congress to act when 'he states cannot act No state can regulate such a nationwide organi- zation. The problem of responsible baseball cannot be met in piccemoal and by fractions.
 Recent events prove that ncces- sty of unified control under q re- sponsible authority. For the sake Of the game. for the sake of the American boy, congress should in terfsre and make sure that in the future there will be responsibility in baseball and that when a diamond hero is made an outca6t if VI hc because he is guilty of betrayal of the game.
