SWEDEN SEEKS PROHIBITION

Prohibition is the leading issue in
the present Swedish campaign. to be
settled by votes in the fall. It was a
leading subject in the parliament. or
r1ksdag, just ended. It has been a
perennial subject, for it has been in
politics for years with various
schemes being tried, but now the
fight is on for total prohibition and
severe penalties for violations of If
AS in the United States the fight
has largely been between the rural
dry population and the CITY vets
The present system, called the
Stockholm system, permits each tax
payer to buy not more than four lit-
ers of spirits each month. In the de-
bates in parliament both sides
stressed the fact that this system
has resulted in notable decrease in
and drunkenness. But each
side claimed the credit-a credit
which really belong to the enforce
ment officer, DR.. Pratt, who has an
nounced his resignation. He is 90
ing to visit the United States to
study prohibition there.-The Path |

POLICE WILL LEARN NEWEST
TRICKS OF TRADE AT PERRY

All the arts employed by police
forces for the subjugation of crooks
in hand-to-hand struggles will be
taught at the Police School of In
struction which will open at Camp
Perry, Ohio, August q, in connec-
ton with the National Rifle Match
es. Jiu Jitsu, disarming and other
tricks that should be known by the
uniformed upholders of law and or
der are on the program.
Policemen will be coached in the
use of tear gas, hand grenades, riot
guns and other equipment, used by
up = to = date police departments.
Workmanship is also a part of the
training, and there will be instruc-
ton in stripping, assembling and
operating all types of small arms.
The chief object of the school is to
train policemen so that they may
return to their respective communi-
ties prepared to coach their brother
officers in the most modern methods
of suppressing the criminal. In
struction will be given for about a
week, and will end before the reg
ular pistol matches for individual
policemen and police teams are
fired.
Last year the School of Instruc-
ton proved to be one of the most
departments of the National
Matches, police officers coming from
points as far distant as Los Angeles,
New Orleans and Hartford, Conn, to
receive instruction and to compete
in the various police craftsmanship
events.
In addition to the police matches
the regular program includes match
es for civilians and for the crack
shots of the Army, Navy, Marine
CORDS and Coast Guard.

arr HEN the class of '28 meets
1AA for one of its last festivities,
when around the table the
strains of Aud Lang Syne fade
away and Alma Mater resounds =
happy indeed is the hostess who
has had the honor of dining the
departing class, perhaps her daugh-
ter's. 1t is one of the thrills that
comes but a few times in a life, and
worthy of all the effort that has
been put into the preparations for
the event.
But days of labor in preparation
are not necessary if the hostess
plans her decorations and her menu
tleverly, and has good quantity reci-
pes on hand. The first thing to
keep in mind is the beloved school
or class colors. Linen, china and
floral decorations may combine to
carry out these colors. A Vassar
luncheon table, for instance, was
charmingly set with pale yellow
iamask cloth garlanded by the
Vassar daisy chain, simple bowl
Of daisies in the center, fanked
by green candles and matching
smaller bowls of daisies.
A high-school class which had
chosen pinlk-and-blue as its class
rolors were delighted to find a
luncheon-table laid with cloth of

glassware. A glass bowl filled with
pink sweet-peas formed the center
piece and the first course was a
pink fruit ice.

black-eyed susans makes a striking
decoration, preferably on a white
cloth. The centerpiece may be a

if amber glasses and candlesticks
are used the effect is most pleasing.

THE tailored frock sketched above
Is just the sort that a woman likes
to have on hand to wear with a fox
scarf during the last days of summer
and the first days of fall. 1t is made
of dark grey covert cloth, all in one
piece, yet with the effect of a jumper
frock. Particularly interesting is the
arrangement of the narrow knife
plaits, massed directly in front and
partly stitched down.
With this informal costume are
worn fine grain lizard shoes of simple

BLIND GIRLS TO ACT Ys3- 4r

NEW YoRK-Feeling their way

NEW YORK-FeeliDg their way across a stage marked by corru- gated rubber strips and extra thick carpets, a little group of blind actresses will present three one-act plays in Broadway the atre March 16. go is
 The girls constitute the Light house Players, dramatic organi- zation of the New York Associa- tion for the Blind, and give an annual production.
 Under the direction of Margot Andre, the girls have spent weeks on the mechanics of their roles, learning just how far they can walk while saying a line, just where they should direct their sightless eyes to convey the i'm pression of closely watching their dramatic vis-a-vis.
 Strips of corrugated rubber guard the edge of the stage, just in front of the footlights, and mark the exits. Additional strips of carpets guide the actresses in their movements during the ac- tiOn.
 Between performances of the second and third plays two of the actresses will give series of dances.
 Acting and dancing, with their attendant studies in body control, are believed to be helpful in re- mobilization work of the blind, and have been emphasized by the re- creation department of the associ- ation. officials say that such study helps to eliminate awkward ness and self-consciousness.

FAIRHAVEN, n. j., July 25.-If
Tom Heeney wins the heavyweight
championship of the world in New
York Thursday night it is likely
that the next title bout will be held
in London That is the opinion vote
Cd by Bernard Mortimer, discoverer
Of Hccney.
"Of course we want the next
heavyweight match in London, but
it will be up to Rickard," Morti-
mer said. Rickard, in my opinion,
is the greatest promoter in the
world. He has done more for the
fight game than any man living
and we will not go contrary to his
desires. But you must bear in mind
that the british empire would pay
big for a chance to see Hecney dc,
/ fend his title.
Then, too, in London, say July
4th, there are countless numbers of
Americans enjoying vacation
period and they would, of course,
see the fight.'
When asked who would be the
greatest drawing card against
Hecncy, he answered "Jack Demp,
scy would get the call. Imagine a
fight between lleeney and Demp
sey in London!'
HcCncy is a man without tcmpcra
ment. No one knows him better than
I bis trainer, Jimmy Hennesscy, with
whom he will be in scclusion today
and the majority of the time until
tho fight.
The last few days have been much
easier for Hcency than his friend,
could expect. He is in the best of
mental condition. In fact, it seems
at times Heency thinks little of thl
big party Tex Rickard will stage
at tho Namknn Stadiunl

SPECULATOR, n. Y, July 25.-
The shadow of Jack Dempsey has
fallen across tomorrow night s
heavyweight championship bout be-
tween Gene Tunney and Tom Hce-
ney.
When the roar of the crowd swclls
into that tumultuous tidal wave of
sound which the old Manassa maui
er so often evoked. Jack Dempsey
will not be in one corner of the ring
for the first time since that broil-
ing afternoon at Toledo nine years
ago when he battered the giant jess
Willard to the canvas.
But the figure of Jack Dempsey
Is indelibly inscribed on the sub
conscious mind of Gene Tunncy.
Tunney, whose forte is boxing
skill and science, wants to be Il
"killcro and he will crawl into the
ring at the Yankee stadium bent on
beating down Tom Heency, not by
artistry, but by the lethal fists that
made Jack Dempsey the greatest
drawing card in the history of pugi-
Esm.
Supcrbly conditioned after two
months of intensive training, Tun-
ncy relaxed today. He spent a quiet
night in his isolated hut in the
heart of the pine clad mountain
tops four miles across Lake Pleas
ant, with Grin Mobiles, vagabond
FAINTER from Seattle, as his only
companion.
One more night here and Tunncy
