cidentally his 20 games won and six
lost, gave him the best winning per-
centage, 1863.
Yet, on the other hand. consider
what happened to Charley Root of
the Chicago Cubs. He ranked next
to kremer in the earned run aver
ages with 2.62, yet the best he could
do was win is games while losing
II. which was not so impressive.
George uhle in 1928 was found
for 37S hits during the season, the
most ever made oft a major league
twirler. yet he was good enough to
win 26 games. Last year he al
lowed a run less per game than in
1928, yet could win only one more,
his, record being 81 victories.
Getting the breaks means much
in winning or losing ball games by
pitcher. Many other things can
enter into the result aside from his
pitching.

League Standing

The P. & F. Corbin baseball team
stepped back onto the highest pedes-
tai in the Industrial Baseball league
last night when it defeated the Faf-
mir team at Walnut Hill in the last
regularly scheduled game of the
season by to l score. This
throws the Corbin and Stanley
Works teams into deadlock for first
place and makes a final game for the
pennant necessity. This contest
will be staged at Walnut Hill park
Tuesday evening, August %. In the
other game played last night, Lam
ders swamped the Russwin team 20
to l. This makes the Russwin and
Union Works crews tied for last
place and as they have a postponed
game to play off between them, this
contest will settle the outcome.
Corbins Beat Fafnirs
The P. & f. Corbin team landed
on the offerings of Ferguson for 10
hits and seven runs to beat the
Fafnir team to l on Diamond No.
., thereby going back into first
place in a deadlock with the STAN
ley Works for the league lead.
The Corbin team with every
man on the squad getting at least
one hit, failed to score as many
runs as there might have been be-
cause of the excellent fielding Of
the Fafnir crew, but they hit in
the pinches and put across enough
counters to give them good lead.
The Bearing Makers threatened
in several innings but sensational
fielding which includes four double,
plays, killed all of their chances of
breaking the shutout with the ex-
ception Of a rally in the seventh
inning when they managed to push
in one run on Kla.ka's double into
the tennis courts. OBriens infield
out and Lipetz' drive into right.
The Corbin team scored three In
the second on four singles, a sac
rifice and a walk. They added one
in the third on an error and a
single. Two more came in in the
an error. Their last run came in in
the sixth on Matteo's fieldcr's
choice and Wright's slash to right.
"Goody" Preisser was the sensa-
ton, not only of the game last night,
hut of the entire league season
through his fielding in center.
"Goody" has enc of those arms that
used to be able to propel ball
at least 25 feet but this has gone.
Despite this, he completed two
snappy double plays from center
throwing to first On both occasions
The second one of the game follow
ed one handed stab behind the
tree in right field and right then
and there, "Goody" emulated Bob
Meusel in getting the ball to Bates
at first. Patrus pulled the fielding
gem Of the game when with three
men on and one out, he started a
double play to second and Huber
completed it to first that shut out
the Fafnir team. The Corbin out
tit completed another double play
during the contest the ball going
from Huber to Patrus to Bates
Fafnirs had one, Lipetz to Walicki

Carlson's work in the box was Of
high order while Ferguson wasn't
in his usual good form. Bates hit

FOREIGN SERVICE
SCHOOL IMPROVED
Many New Courses Added to
Georgetown University Branch.
Senator Walsh on Faculty,

! The School of Foreign Service OF
Georgetown University, which is, as
| far as known, the only complete and
separate university school of its kind
in the world, will open classes October
| / with many new courses and various
! improvements. Foreign service, which
| is one of the newest of professions for
Americans, embraces many fields, in
Guiding foreign trade, international
| shipping, diplomacy. consular and
trade commissioner work. internation-
al law. accounting. business admins
tration and political science. George
town gives complete degree courses
covering all of these branches. This
year, in addition to the usual late
afternoon and evening courses, start
ing at $40 O'Clock, there viii be morn
| ing classes starting at o'clock.
The principal change in the curricu-
lum is the expansion in the courses in
accounting and business administra-
ton, so that the school will offer Suf-
ficient courses to prepare men for the
examinations for certified public ac-
countant in the various States. These
courses will be elective and under the
general direction of William G.
Buchanan, certified public accountant.
One of the additions to the faculty
this year is Senator David |. Walsh,
who will give a course on practical
American government, from the point
of view of man who has had prac-
tical experience in all three branches
of government. Senator Walsh, who
for the second time represents Mas
sachusetts in the United States Senate,
was formerly a member of the Mas
sachusetts House of Representatives
lieutenant-governor and Governor of
Massachusetts,, and a member of the
Massachusetts constitutional conven-
tion. He is considered to be one of
the outstanding orators in America to-
day.
The tremendous foreign trade of the
United States. running up into ten
billion dollars a year, and the COM
manding position in international af-
fairs which this country occupies, has
increased considerably the demand for
persons qualified for the foreign serv-
ice profession. The fame of the
Georgetown school is so widespread
that the registrations for this year in
dicate that the record of last year
will be exceeded although last year
there were students from every State
in the United States and from 81 for
eign countries The records of the
school indicate that the graduates have
been very successful and are holding
responsible positions in foreign service
in almost so different countries. Over
| IS different courses are offered by the
| school: among these are a number of
| post graduate subjects. The school is
now registering students for the
classes that open October l.

STRAYER COLLEGE
TO OPEN SESSION
Will Enter Upon Twenty-Fourth
Year-Faculty of 25 Has
Charge of Instruction.

Strayer College enters upon it's
twenty-fourth successful school year
under the same management, with
the opening of its Fall term tomor-
row and next Monday, September 10.
From a small commercial school in
1904, offering limited instruction in
shorthand. typewriting. English, arith-
metic and bookkeeping, Strayer's s
Business College. as it was then
called, has grown to an institution
which is nationally known for it's
thorough and complete business
training.
In addition to the general business
course which was then offered. Stray
er College now includes in its cur.
riculum secretarial courses of both
junior and senior grades. A complete
course of training for Junior account
ants and a resident course in ad-
vanced accountancy, through special
arrangement with the Walton School
of Commerce in Chicago are likewise
taught.
The Walton course as offered in
resident instruction at Strayers has
trained more young men and women
for positions as certified public ac-
countants than any other accounta ncy
course. In Strayer College the Wal
ton department is under the super
vision and instruction of college
trained certified public accountants,
who, in addition to their Theoretical
knowledge, have practiced their pro-
fession for number of years.
The national character of the col
lege may be seen by the fact that of
the 1900 or 1,40O students trained at
Strayer's during the school year
1926-27, 2S States of the Union and
several foreign countries were repre-
sented in the student body. A survey
also disclosed that AT leading colleges
and universities were represented by
$50 students in attendance at the col.
lege during the same period.
An able faculty of 25 has charge of
the instruction at both the day and
evening sessions. Many of the faculty
hold degrees from commercial and
academic colleges, while most of the
instructors have had practical expert.

various subjects in which they are
now teaching. p. j. Harman, director
and associate founder of the college
