Drinking on Decrease? Records
of Kelley Cure Cry Loud No?
Figures Show Steady Gain
in Intemperance Since
10 Years Ago.
BY BRUCE CATION,
NEA Service Writer

dwight, ILL.,, April If the
- prohibition law has cut down
the amount of heavy drinking that
goes on in America, the news hasn't
yet reached the Kelley institute
headquarters here.
For half a century the Kelley in
stitute has been famous as the home
of the "Keeley cure"-a process by
which confirmed alcoholics are put
on their feet and given a chance
to shake off the habit of excessive
drinking.
And the Kelley institute right
now is doing bigger business than
it ever did before.
1t is doing such a big business
that its present quarters are too
small. The one building it now &C.
cupies is to be replaced by three
new ones, just as soon as they can
be made ready.
Last year the institute had more
liquor cases than in any other year
of its existence except 1894.
! In the first two months of this
year it had thirty more cases than
it had in the corresponding period
of last year.
Increase Since Prohibition
Figures compiled in the Office of
DR.. James Henry Oughton, presi-
dent of the institute, show that the
number of patients steadily has in
creased since prohibition until it
now tops the average for pre-
prohibition years.
To get a fair comparison 1t IS
necessary to go back to 1915, the
last of the normal pre-prohibition
years.
In that year the institute here
had 627 cases for treatment. In
1929 it had 1874 cases. And this
years record is running ahead of
last years.
1t is interesting to survey the fig
ures covering the years from 1916
onward.
In 1917 the number fell of to 566.
''In the last six months of 1917"
explains DR.. Oughton, "the num-
Der fell off because of the draft. The
drinkers were going into the army.
Some of them who had reached the
point where they needed to take
the cure enlisted instead"
In 1918 the decrease continued,
with 361 patients. In 1919 the num-
Der was 800 and in 1920, the first
prohibition year, it dropped to 1876.
What Figures Show
Then it started up. The figures
for the next nine wears follow:

Monday and refused to talk with re-
porterS.
Can't Be Bothered

matter, it is said officials of local

CASH MARK NEARED
BY BLUE LARKSPUR
Can Land Second to Zev by
Taking $35, 900 Arlington
Saturday.

- HICAGO. July 81 (P.-Blue
Larkspur, Col. E. r. Bradley's
1929 3-yeAr-old champion, will
have chance to assume Sec
ond place among the money-winning
thoroughbreds of all time in the $685.
900 Arlington Handicap at Arlington
Park Saturday.
After his impressive victory in the
Arlington Cup last Saturday the A.
year-old son of Black Servant Blossom
Time had won $272,0O0, about $4,000
less than the total accumulated by CAL
liant Fox, 3-year-old champion of the
season. Victory in the handicap not
only would put Blue Larkspur ahead of
Gallant Fox in earnings, but would
move him dangerously close to the
$4,000 brought in by Zev, which
stands as the all-time record.
Blue Larkspur came through the cup
race in excellent shape and Trainer
Dick Thompson today was ready to be-
gin pointing the horse for the handi-
cap. Col. Bradley was favorable to
starting his flyer in the race, but re-
served final decision until tomorrow.
The high spot of the steeplechasing
season also will be reached Saturday in
the $1,000 added North Shore Steeple-
chase Handicap.

HOmers in the PincteS PrOue
Telling Factor in Big Leagues

Grove his thirteenth victory of the
year, to hand Cantrell his first Ameri-
can League defeat the day after the
Tigers acquired him from Toronto, and
to put the Athletics four games ahead
of the Washington Senators, defeated
at st. Louis.
The Senator's produced pinch homer
by Joe Judge in the ninth inning, fol-
lowed by similar clout by Art Shires,
who supplanted Judge at first base, but
they only produced three runs, not
enough to overcome the st. Louis lead,
and the Browns won, 8 to 6.
To complete the American League
cycle Bob Reeves of Boston hit homer
with two on base in his one time at cat
in the Red Sox second game, but it onIv
served TO prolong the agony. Chicago's
White SoX pulled out a 5-to-4 victory
in the ninth inning of the second game
after pounding out 16-to-4 decision In
the opener as Ted Lyons scored his
fourteenth victory of the season.
The National League produced no
laSt-minute homers, but there were
plenty of them, and an even more plen-
teous supply of hits as Brooklyn and
Chicago suffered sharp letdowns after
the finish of their crucial series. The
st. Louis Cardinals handed the league
leaders a 15-to-6 trouncing. driving Bill
Clark from the mound with 7 runs in
the second inning. The Cards made
five errors, but atoned for them by
poundingS out II hits, two of them
homerS.
Chicago went down with hardly a
murnur under the assaults of the New
York Giants, who likewise made II
blows and won by 13-to-5 count. The
Cubs led only in the first two innings,
when they scored four of their runs.
Hack Wilson hit his twenty-sixth home
run of the year as the final Cub gesture
of the game. The result of these two
games put Chicago one point closer to
Brooklyn and left the teams in their
virtual tie for first place.
Boston and Cincinnati, battling for
sixth place, failed to reach decision in
their attempts to break the current tie.
The Reds won the first game, to 5,
with a home run barrage behind the
effective pitching OF Red Lucas, but Bos-
ton reversed the result in the second,
pounding three pitchers for 1S-to-l
triumph as Tom Zachary held the Reds,
