The strange last minute action of the investigating board of the Con- necticut A. A. U. last night in rein. stating all of the more than 200 box CTS who were suspended on charges of professionalism, until at least. the state title tournament starthl last night at New Haven, was finished. prevented most of the boxers from appearing in the eliminatip ipn con- tests staged last night.
 Only those amateur fighkars who were on hand were able to lse match ed up for bouts in the variQls classes last night and as q consequence, only about 50 fighters took part where in former years more than 200 and nearer 300 of thom have ap- peared in the eliminatioH.
 Of interest to local fans was the fact that Billy Taylor of Hartford was eliminated by Leo Larrivier of Waterbury in the weltkMweight di- vision. Hartford fans claim that the worst that Taylor should have re- ceived would have bean a draw but the judges of the fight ruled that iarrivier won in three. rounds.
 None of the New Britain ex- ponents of amateur fighting have been entered in the tournament all though none of them has been nam- ed in the lists of those suspended. Many here thought that Johnny Clinch would have been d contender tor state honors in the welterweight class, but for some unaccountable reason. the local lays name is miss ing from the lists of those who fought last night.
 The finals will be staged at the New Haven Arena tonight. The win- ners of the bouts will represent the state of Connecticut in the national title contests in Boston carly next month.
 The Hartford, Eastern league base ball team will start the season next Wednesday aftrnoon with elaborate ceremonies. X parade will be staged and Mayor Norman Stevens will toss out the first. ball. In case Of bad weather. thoopening day ceremonies VIII be postponed until April 20.

perimental method in medicine.
Sir William Osler summarized the Importance of
this fact in of his orations in the following words
ITO the age of the nearer, in which men had heard
and heard only had succeeded the age of the eye in
which had and had been content only-to see.
"But at last came the age of the hand-the think
ing, devising planning hand, the hand instru-
ment of the mind now reintroduced into the world
in modest little monograph from which we may
date the beginning of experimental medicine"
The monograph to which Osler refers was the
small book the de Motu Cords" in which Harvey
announced his dicovery of the circulation of the blood
in 1923.
1t is interesting to note the development of which
Osler speaks.
Throughout the Middle Ages authority reigned
supreme The professors willing to believe what
the ancient authorities said.
Then came the revolt. Paracelsus preferred to
trust his eyes rather than some ancient text.
Vesalus by dissection after dissection, completed
his Fabrca the first accurate and detailed study of
human anatomy published.
VesaliuS had worthy successors among them Fall
lopius and Fabricius the teacher of Harvey.
And then came Harvey who founded experimental
medicine by making of the experimental method
to demonstrate things which by their nature were
not to be demonstrated by mere observation.

likely to break down with any ex-
ertion that can ordinarily-or even
extraordinarily-be placed upon it.
In fact, the unusual exertion serves
a valuable purpose in calling atten-
ton to previously unsupported dis
ease of the heart tissue.
This indicates the Importance,
above all things, of knowing def
nitely that the heart is normal and
able to respond to unusual burdens
before attempting excessive &C
tivities.
The failure to have such knowl-
edge is responsible for the type of
collapse that occurs when a heavy,
middle-aged man runs too hard
after a street car, when 8 young
man collapses on the fifteenth green
during the third day of golf tour
nament, when a debutante faints
during the twentieth dance at 3 in
the morning.

If all the men and women who are
talking dry and acting wet will quit
playing hypocrite and live up to
what they preach, it will be no trou-
BILE to enforce the dry laws of our
country.
Think of the leaders of two great
parties writing dry planks into their
platform while there was so much
liquor flowing that it took about all
the delegates present to hold the dry
plank down long enough to get
enough nails in it for the campaign.
Therefore, knowing these things,
we are constrained to say with
Matthew 23:14, ''Woe unto you,
hypocrites, who for n pretense make
long prayers, therefore receive the
greater damnation."

duct yourselves like men, obey the

The Country Teacher

The day of rural school teachers Is nearing an end
in this country.
Soon big consolidated fireproof, windproof build
ings will house the youngsters for miles around
AS the country school teacher passes, however. let
us pause to give her the credit she deserves
Said news dispatches from Nebraska Friday Of
last week:
Helen Rooney. teacher 10, was killed when the
tornado struck her school near Homer. The body of
Miss Rooney, who stayed to all pupils safely out of
the building was hurled 300 feet.
"At the Lamere schoolhouse, near Walthill, two
pupils were killed and twentyfour others seriously
injured Miss Phyllis Stewart heroic teacher huddled
the children into group when she. was warned of
the oncoming storm and played popular songs to
quiet them. She was hurt seriously"
Bigger and better schools may in the future give
the children of rural Nebraska better educational op-
portunitieS 1t will be impossible to furnish teachers
with more character than displayed unGer fire by
Helen Rooney and Phyllis Stewart.

ITO squeeze successfully, you
i should play all Of the cards in
your strong suit consecutively in
stead of switching from one to the
other. Squeeze to the limit, even
if you have to play every "crd in
your trump suit.
An illustration of the use { the
squeeze play at no trump follows:

West leads the of hearts. The
declarer sees that there is nothing
to be gained by the hold-up and
takes with the Jack of hearts in
Vic Qul1A1llys I1C 1lOW 4lObASCo OAAdb
six tricks may be made in the club
suit.
In addition, four diamond tricks
may be made if West does not hold
four cards headed by the Jack in
that suit-but West has just such
a hand. Declarer therefore plays
his clubs consecutively. Reluctant
to weaken his spade or heart suit,
west discards a diamond and the
declarer makes all of his diamonds
good!
When you hold A K @ x in a
suit, before you play it compel your
opponents to do some discarding on
other suits.
In this manner you may squeeze
out one card from a fou card hold
ing in that suit in the hand of one
of your opponents, with the result
that your A K @ x will win four
tricks where otherwise it would win
only three.

The first symptom of failing
heart is usually either shortness Of
breath on slight exertion or pain in
the region of the heart. However,
it should be emphasized that not all
pains are heart pains.
1t is a common saying in medical
circles that when a patient COM
plains of his heart the wise phys-
clan will think of his stomach.
Conversely, if he complains
greatly of his stomach it may be
well to examine the heart.
Pains in the heart sometimes
come on when the person has been
subjected to unusual cold. Emo p
tional excitement alone or combined
with extra physical exertion may
bring on an attack of heart pain.
Leaving a warm room and going
out into the cold may start the pain.
Worry seems to intensity heart
pains.

The Crime Probe

Let it be hoped that the present grand jury
will not be either discouraged or dismayed in
its efforts to discover what, if any, protection
has been given to criminals and crime in this
county and city.
1t may be of interest, especially at this time,
to discover why the list of election officials has
always contained the names of many whose
careers and records are exhibited in court
documents.
1t should be of interest to know whether
the so-called bosses of politics have depended
favOrs.
The coming of gang government is trace
able, most conclusively, to the manner in which
prohibition laws have been operated.
The gangs spring from the business of alco-
hol cooking and the bringing of booze from the
borders.
Having been successful in that field, it is
but a small step to the crimes of banditry and
holdup and arson and more primitive forms of
pillage.
Of course, the fault is not altogether on
such agents of the law as find it profitable to
protect the bootlegger and the gang runner
Back of it is the fact that very respectable
men, who are frightened by crime, patronze
the men who bring in the forbidden booze.
The gangs exist for the violation of the law,
obtaining protection through corruption, be-
cause there is a market for their goods and
they do not find their customers among the
criminal class. They get their rich profits from
those who can afford to pay high prices for
poison.
There should be another, unofficial but
sweeping, inquiry into the crime situation. 1t
might well be handled by joint committee
from the Bar Association and the Church Fed
Grafton. 1t should discover how far the courts
and so-called criminal lawyers operate to pro-
tect crime.
1t should also disclose just how far the good
citizen has helped to make crime possible by
buying bootleg whisky and bargain cars.

Deserved Honor

awarded to Newton D. Baker.
No person. disposed to be fair, will dispute the JUS
tce of this award During the war partisan opposi-

of War This attitude continued in some quarters Tor
time after the war Notwithstanding tributes TO MS
craftsmanship from such military leaders as General
Pershing himself Republican
But wear by year, as peace has permitted dispas-
onate study of the record the estimate OF Baker has
grown, until now there few to deny that he was
a big man in big Job during the trying years OF II
and 10.
The citation just MADE originally was recommended
y the Army board in December, 1913 Baker, as Sec
retary of War, struck his own name from the honor
list 1t remained for his present successor, Dwight
Davis to perform the gracious act of approving the
award

Utilizing Politics

Elizabethton is a good example
of how and why the South is chang
ing, especially in this region. Five
years ago it contained 5000 people.
Then came &. German rayon cor
poration which has already put one
plant in operation and completed
another The town now numbers
10000. When both plants are run
ming ION full schedule they will fur
nish employment for no less than
10000.
Small wonder that Elizabethton
is feeling good, or that its Cham
Der of Commerce is thrilled with the
advertising urge. Hoover's coming
is appreciated quite as much for the
good it will do the community as
for political reasons, which is little
different from Houston's attitude
toward the Democratic convention.
People in all sections of the coun-
try may be as enthusiastic over
politics as they ever we're, but one
can hardly escape the impression
that they have grown cleverer in
the use of political events to boost
local enterprise.

Face New Growth

have thought for several years
that no section of the country
promised greater development than
that which includes East Tennessee
the Carolinas and Western Virginia
1t is not only section rich in re-
sources, but richer still in the al
titude of tbs people. They have
changed distinctly during the last
quarter of a centucy. Their thoughts
are no longer riveted to agriculture
or to that easy going, comfortable
sort of life which once dominated
their spirit.
The discovery of-vast mineral de-
posts, the coming of textile mills
and, above all else, the revelation
of water power possibilities through
the development of Muscle Shoals
have wrought nothing less than an
intellectual revolution,
These people have not only
awakened to the opportunities
which surround them, but to the
idea of taking the fullest advantage
of these opportunities.

Family Spirit Rules

AT 7 Sunday evening the United
Press reported that the wires we're
down in southern Florida. that no
message had been received by radio
for three hours, that the wind was
blowing ninety miles an hour and
the waves running thirty feet high
at West Palm Beach, according to
the last bulletin. There is no dan
ger here, of course, but the same
sympathetic anxiety that pervades
the Nation.
We are learning to think beyond
our own immediate interests as
never before to visualize ourselves as
a great family. to come forward with
assistance that would have been i'm
possible two generations ago. The
Red Cross has already moved to re-
lieve Porto Rico. Today, it will be
making plans for the relief of other
stricken districts. Best of all, it can
depend on the American people to
furnish whatever is needed.

Our Enlightened Electorate

The American electorate is, you all know highly
enlightened and intelligent and can be trusted to
decide at the polls any weghty question.
To be sure. Yet Detroit attorney. last spring
bet a friend that any man running for Congress
under the name of Jefferson in the Thirteenth district
could draw at least 10000 votes though he made
no effort to introduce himself to the voters.
After the recent primary this attorney collected.
He had entered the fictitious name of John G. JEFF
ferson in the congressional primary, making cam
paign whatever and exciting line of comment.
He polled 1O,729 votes.
Thus, occasionally, does the enlightened American
electorate work.

Democratic Bolt

AS might be expected, the storm
has sidetracked political talk, but
I am told there would otherwise be
plenty of it. Water power, prohi-
bition and religion combine to pro-
duce a peculiarly intense feeling.
Tennessee is not only doubtful, but
the eastern end of it is strongly
Republican. The Knoxville area is
southern, but not solid.
Northeastern Tennessee always
has shown strong Republican lean
ings. -Four years ago the First con-
greSSional district went Republican
by $4,000 majority. There is a
Democratic bolt here, but no one
seems to know,how large. The best
information can get is that it will
run from Is to Is per cent of the
party'S strength.
