BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
Miss Gertrude Young, principal
of the Peabody Carbery Hilton
School, can't understand why the
District high schools don't go in
for soccer. Soccer is not recog-
nized as a sport in the high
schools here.
This virtual quarantine on a
game less dangerous that football
robs smaller boys Of proper exer
else, contends Miss Young. Soccer
is not only a principal sport with
the graded and junior high lads
but also on the Fairgrounds.
81 do not have any COM
plant against football in the
high schools here" declares
Miss Young, "but ] can't see
why boys too small for foot.
ball are denied their only
sport"
Soccer is game wherein
weight and size, though desirous,
are not the fundamental qualities.
Speed is most important. Soccer
also builds strong bodies and
there is little risk of physical
injury. Nor is the sport as pun
iShing as football"
"The small soccer boys going
into the high schools must turn
their attention to basketball or
track, otherwise remain out Of
sports competition" continues
Miss Young. I do hope someone
with authority comes to the aid
of these boys and place soccer
in the high schools"
The soccer expOnentS
assert the game Is not as
expensive as football, the
equipment costing only q
fraction of what is expended
annually for football.
The high school coaches claim
scarcity of fields bars soccer.
There is an extra field at Eastern
High available for soccer. That's
a feeble excuse. Tech won't have
a field until the fall, yet goes
long distances to other fields to
train for football, baseball and
track-and produced champions
in all three. Business without a
field, is represented in football
and the gridmen practice on the
Tidal Basin grounds. Western,
too, long supported football and
baseball within a home field.
The annual playground junior
and senior elementary soccer
series attract over 5000 boys.
Still, their favorite sport is for
hidden them upon advancing to
the high schools.

 Wife Acts As Eyes
 Through his years of darkness, Senator Cores wife has been his tireless companion. She has read to him most of the thousands of books that line the walls of his great pri- vate library in his home here, and painted for him in words the pie lures of life, of the senate. of busy estreets, of his home and his children that his eyes will never see.
 For 30 years she has guided him through the darkness, borne his chil- dren and made his home. All of this makes 1t easy to understand why, when 1t appeared that the doctors might be able to restore his sight and he was asked what he most wanted to see, he replied as he did.

100000 ITALIANS
 REPORTED J0bEESS
Increase in Winter EzpectM-
 1@,000 Getting Insurance

Rome, Sept. 12 (UP)-The direc- tor of the National Bank for social insurance, Commentators Medolaghi has just informed the cabinet that the figures of the unemployed in Italy on July 31 were 342,0s3, show ing an increase of 21,S06 over the total for the end of June this year. Of these unemployed, 232,145 were men and10s,s4S women.
 Unemployment insurance was be- ing paid on the foregoing date to 13o,o00 unemployed.
 These figures are derived from the returns of the government so- cial insurance bureau against un- employment, but as obligatory in- surance against unemployment only extends to those workmen or work women earning less than lire 1000 per month, the total of Italy's un- employed is rather greater than 342,0s3.
 Increase Expected It may be conservatively estinat. cd at around 100000 with a prob able increase in tho winter.
 There is no dole system in force here. The government social insur- ance subsidy is only given to those workers who regularly pay their !n- Slrance quota every month. Half Of this is paid by the employer, and half by the workers. Employes, such as clerks, are outside the govern ment scheme of social insurance, unless their own organizations or corporations have made special pro- vision to this end, This only hap pens in special cases,
 According to official figures. on July Sl, there were 63,ooo unem- ployed in agriculture; 2s,ooo odd in the metal industries; 73,754 in the building and road repairing trade. and 66,es6 in the textile !n- dustries.
 Public Works Program
 The Italian government has planned an extensive scheme of public works for the forthcoming winter. involving more than two hundred millions of lire. In addi- bion there are extensive programs for municipal public works for large sums.
 The principle behind tho Italian governments plans for dealing with unemployment Is mo money for nothing" The dole is not ad- Mitted, and every workman must earn the money he obtains from the governments public works scheme.
