beset him in this event in two pre-
vious Olympiads. In both 1920 and
1924 Paddock was Z favorite in the
1900" but he was the victim Of an
upset on the soft Antwerp track,
where Alan Woodring Of Syracuse
triumphed, and he was nOsed out by
Scholz at Paris.
Woodring's victory was one Of the
big surprises Of the 1920 Olympics.
He had failed to place in the final
American trials and was considered
IN outsider in spite Of his rapid inn
provement after arriving in Ant
werp.
It was an odd break the day be-
fore the finals that played . big
part in Woodring's triumph, in the
opinion Of Lawson Robertson, this
years Olympic head coach.
"Woodring needed new Shoes .
Robby recalls. HE was having
trouble with his footgear 30 told
him to take . day of and shop for
some others. He came back with
9 pair that had the longest spikes
! ever saw. They were over an
inch long, but on the soft Antwerp
track they gave him just the right
grip and helped him win"
Bobby Kerr, the old Canadian
star, is the only sprinted who has
ever tho--n his heels to American
talent in the Olympic 1000" He
did It ct London in 1903 and shut
the Yankees out Of the spirits al.
together, for Walker, the South
African, had conquered them in the
400" Jimmy Rector and Nate
Sartmell, now Penn States coach
were among Kerr's victims.

hands only once in Olympic history
and there isn't much If any likeli-

For this particular feature of the
international athletic program it
would be difficult to figure how the

defending champion; Charley Pad

runner-up for the title twice; Ro-
land Locke, the furlong record.hoi-
der; Charley Borah, the intercol-
legiate flash, and others.
Scholz, Paddock, Locke and b.
rah all have turned 200 meters in
better than 81 seconds, which is
faster than the time recorded for
any previous Olympic triumph at
the distance.
It will be worth travelling q few
thousand miles to see if Scholx and

BY BOB MATHERNE

A few good days in the spring
don't make for . successful season
in the major leagues, but they do
make for extravagant praise snd
young Andy Cohen Of the New York
Giants is getting that these days.
This business Of filling the spo..
left vacant in the Giants infield
when Rogers Hornsby was traded
to the Boston Braves hasn't been
such . difficult task to Cohen so
far. He's gone about it in such a
neat manner that he has been iaud-
ed as extravagantly as any rookie
who has broken in the majors in
recent years.
OF course, Cohen Is not a Horns
by, and probably never will be-.
But he's 50 much better, so far, than
the most rabid New Yorker ever
hoped for that he seems to have

Just what sort Of . fellow is this
Cohen?
Answer to Prayers

McGraw for years has been seek

immense Jewish population in New
York and how Andy seems to be tine

And everyone knows INV Andy
attended the University of Alabama
for three years and then played one
season in the Texas League before
he was bought for $4,000 by the
Giants late in 1925 And how, last
year, he preferred to play every
day in minor league rather than
sit on . major league bench and
how, when Hornsby was traded, he
was brought back to the Giants. +

taken, Andy Cohen will prove one

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DIR. C. A. L. Reed

THERE IL in the United States
i what is called the "Lexian
Movement" the object of which
is to teach people that the natural
law furnishes the safe guide for
right human behavior. 1t is
new and practical kind of ethics.
or rather a new and intelligent
basis for old ethics. All health
problems are finally settled on
the natural-law basis. The min
lister" OF this new form of ethics
comes in various guises, such as
physicians, nurses, welfare work
ers and community science direc-
tors. The science director Is first
a public health engineer and. next,
a. teacher of ethics. He teaches
by precept.
The community science director,
or Lexian Leader. considered as
public health engineer, Is described
by DIR. Howard f. Long in the
merican Journal of Public
Health. Such a functionary Is in
the fullest sense concerned with
the public health in seeing that
the supply of air, light, food and
water is unadulterated. that ade-
quate heat and shelter are avail
able, and that the disposal and
elimination of waste problems are
unrestric d. Moreover, the
regional planner must so plan
that his region Is developed to
the best possible advantage to
health, safety, comfort and con-
venience. He must provide for
the future development OF the
city and leave scope for develop
ing more economic AND practical
schemes for sewage disposal with
out polluti On of public water
courses.
Reciprocal and united action
between sanitarian, planning en-
gineer and public health engineer
of adjacent regions becomes more
and more essential as commun-
tiles grow and intervening open
areas are swallowed up. Ii the
engineer studies past develop
ments and present trends he can
forecast the future with surprls-
ing accuracy and can specify
where residential, mercantile and
industrial development Will occur.
He can provide for the reservation
of lands for agricultural purposes,
ensuring a proper fresh food sup
DIV. and plan facilities for trans
mort from those areas to the best
marketing centers. soon the
health worker will have to decide
. the degree of air pollution which
is definitely dangerous to health,
and to devise means for purlflca'
ton in face of steadily increasing
gases etc. Here the regional
planner can help by locating the
most cOngested traffic ways out
side the borders of cities, and by
: setting industrial zones to lee
ward of residential zones, accord
ing to the prevailing winds.
Though susceptibility to noise
varies considerably with different
individuals, it is generally true
that residential, school and hos
pital districts should be placed
away from the noisy Industries
and large traffic thoroughfares'
