major role, he said.
Students of sociology in three
universities are cooperating with
the Office Of education in the pro-

The Office tells of surprising
things already discovered concerning
the results of radio in isolated
homes.
One is the story of Walter r.

U. S. TO PLACE

Federal Board Hopes to

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Broad-
ening it's program for bringing islo-
lated mountain homes education
and culture through radio, the fed
eral education Office made known
today plans for installing sets in
foreign" homes in American cities.
L. R. Alderman, chief Of the Of
flee, and supervisor of the expert
ment in radio education, views radio
as a tremendous Americanizing in
huence.
Before June, more than half OF
the 100 radio sets donated his Office
by the United States Chamber of
Commerce will have been installed
at remote headquarters, in school
houses in isolated districts, and in
city homes of foreign born, he said.
It will be impossible to control the
type of programs that go out to
these selected groups, Alderman
pointed out. He believes that news
flashes, market reports, travel lee
lures and talks on books, food, diet
and farm problems all will play a

STORES SCORE
ON RETURN BAN
Influence of Campaign Is
Felt, Heads Report.

Influence of a movement to re-
duce abuse of the privilege of re-
turning merchandise taken from
stores already has been felt in
stores participating in the cam
paign, according to officials of the
Merchants Association, today.
The head of one of the largest
downtown department stores, speak
ing of the customs of charge account
customers returning merchandise
with requests that their accounts
be credited, said:
Many seem to think that because
they pay their accounts within the
prescribed credit limit, thirty days,
they are WARRANTED in charging
their account with many items
that they really do not intend to
keep"
Merchants suffer from such prac-
tice, it is asserted. AS a part of the
campaign against return of goods,
all abuses of the privilege are being
fled with the Merchants Associa-
ton.

POOR EYESIGHT
IS BLAMED FOR
NATIONS CRIME
0ptometrist Says Children
With Bad Vision Are
Under Handicap.

Defective vision is to blame for
much Of Americas crime.
Man, whose eyes were intended
as his chief weapon Of defense,
trained for hunting and looking
over great distances, finds it difficult
to adjust his vision to the demands
of modern life in the comparatively
few centuries of civilization.
This is the theory Of DR.. A. NJ.
skefington, Chicago, director Of the
graduate clinic foundation OF
optometry, who is in the city to
conduct clinics today and Friday
at the Claypool under auspices OF
the Indianapolis Optometric society.
Pay Roll Is Wasted
One-fftr of the entire national
pay roll is wasted because OF detec-
tive vision. he said, and four out OF
ten juvenile delinquents may blame
the same trouble for their plight.
Human eyes, the most efficient
visual organs in the world, were
gift from nature to make up to man
for his lack of fang, claw Or other
weapon of the animal" declared the
doctor.
when the race was endowed with
highly efficient third dimensional
sight. It was so man could stalk the
woods with safety, peering for long
distances and outwitting animals by
his power Of sight.
Boy Becomes Nervous
I'm this machine age, however,
this long distance vision is unneces-
sary.
1--WE are born with it and chill
dren experience great difficulty in
training those eyes, given for out
side work to the studies indoors.
The result, he said, is that the
boy with defective eyesight be-
comes nervous in school, gets
fdgety, then into mischief, is de-
noted and quits school, joining a
crowd that does not chide him be-
cause of his failures. Crime often
is the next step.
An adequate visual survey in the
schools, more thorough than the
"scanty, superficial examination
now given" is a vital need, DR..
Skeffington said.

BEGINS
GR|DPRACT|CE

Morning football drills have
begun for candidates for Coach
Ty Rauber's Central high team.
Equipment has been issued to
some 50-odd players. The first
workout was held today and the
course will be conducted for the
next six weeks.
Among those taking part in the
practice sessions are Captain Nc
Ginty. DiIIision, Morgan and
Johnson, all of whom were mem
bers of the Blue and White squad
last fall. Coach Rauber plans
to take the squad through a stiff
program which calls for a great
amount of scrimmage in order
that he may get a true line on
the capabilities of his men for
forming his team next fall.
Having cut his squad from
its original bulky size of 11O
down to As players, Coach
Nal Edwards is about ready
to inaugurate practice on the
Monument field for the Tech
high diamond aspirantS. An
other cut will be made before
long bringing the squad down
to IS, which will be carried
during the season.
One of the things Coach Ed
wards is planning upon is the
grooming of Everett Hussell as
first relief pitcher in case any
thing should happen to Captain
Benny Spigel who is expected to
bear the brunt of the Tech slab
duties. Russell also is an out
fielder of ability and probably
will be seen regularly in one of
the garden positions. Having him
ready for a turn on the mound
is only an emergency move on
the part of the Tech mentor.
With nine veterans among the
squad Of % trying for the George
town Prep nine, Coach Eddie
Brooks has the nucleus for an
other strong team. The prep
mentor is pushing his team along
at a fairly rapid rate now for
his opening game next Wednes-
day with Dewitt Prep.
Captain Jean de Sibour has
been lost to the team, having
transferred to Andover Prep. His
going leaves a vacancy at short
stop which Murphy is counted
upon to plug. Others upon whom
Coach Brooks is counting to
make the nine are O'Neill and
Graham. pitchers; Ragland and
Parton, catchers; Moore, Sullivan,
Walsh and Murphy, infielders,
and Jack Robinson, O'Brien and
Koch, outfielders.
The schedule follows:
April Dewitt at home.
April 4--Western at home.
April IO-Eastern away.
April 14-Charlotte Hall at homo.
April 30-Devitt at home.
May 1-Tech at home.

6. v. LEAGUE

A 16-team intramural baseball
league soon will be actively flour
ishing at George Washington Uni
versity. The schedule is now be-
ing drawn up to include two round
robins. Three games are to be
played each week, and suitable
awards are to be given to the win
ner and runner-up in the loop.
Assistant Athletic Director Max
Harrington has been placed in
charge Of the league and is busy
completing plans for its success.
Each game is to go only seven in
ningS unless a@tie exists. Equip
ment for catchers will be fur
nished and two new balls will be
issued for each game.
The teams comprising the
league will be made up for the
most part from the different
fraternities, IL Of these having
Joined. Others to place teams
are the Engineers, Columbian
School, Law School and Phar.
macy School.
The spring football practice ses-
sion for the ColonialS will con-
clude next week. Athletic Direc-
tor Pixlee feels that much has
been accomplished in the way of
familiarizing his candidates with
the new shift, which was the
prime object of the work.
Catholic U. is scheduled to hold
its first practice game of the sea-
son today with the French A. c.
nine. The two were to have got
together yesterday, but were pre-
vented from getting action by the
wet field. Coach Gagnon is par
ticularly anxious to go through
with today's engagement in order
to get line on his players so he
can pick his starting lineup for
the seasons opener Monday
against Dartmouth.
