She's Back Again
Johnny Brown S
Goat Taken

By HARRISON CARROLL

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. S.-S c ore
up another one for Vincent Bar
nett, Hollywood's profes ional
ribber.
At the behest of Douglas Fair
banks, he joined the back-lot foot
ball team at United Artists
and baited Johnny Mack Brown
until the former ALA merican
could scarcely contain himself
The persecution began in Doug'S
dressing-room before the game.
"Oh, I've heard about you," Bar
nett told Brown, you're the pro
fessional ringer they put in at
Alabama" Johnny held his
temper, and even consented for
Barnett to play center on his
team. After that, every. time
Johnny carried the ball, Vince
would roll it to him on the ground
or toss it almost over his head.
Presently, Barnett inquired d:
"Are you sure you're Brown Of
Alabama? You're not Brown of
Harvard, are you?"
It was about this time that
Johnny hissed to one Of the play
erS: IF this guy wasn't a friend
Of Doug'S, I'd punch him in the
nose"
A few minutes later, Johnny
was caught for a loss. Barnett
shook his head. you've never
played football before" he said.
yeah" snapped Johnny, well
if you know so much, you pack
the ball."
Whereupon, Barnett, with both
teams in the know, promptly ran
for 40 yards. There" he said
contemptuously, that's the way
it should be done"
Luckily, the game ended about
this time. You should have seen
Johnny's face when Barnett in
troduced himself.
There's Still Hope
AS Harry Brand tells it, a
group at a Hollywood party were
panning a certain actor for turn

came aware that the actors
sister was standing next to them.
AS confusion reigned, she
smiled and said sweetly. THAT

have been found in the ruins of their dwellings. This proves that they went hunting from time to time; but most of their food ap- pears to have come from gardens. Crops were planted whenever a level rfairly level space could be found--often beside a river flow ing through a valley or canyon.
 Cliff Dwellers, 1t Is believed, were ancestors of Pubelo. Indians now living in the same general region. The cliff homes were de- serted long ago, and are now par tially in ruins.
 The most famous ruins of cliff dwellings are in the canyons of southwestern Colorado. Chief of these is Cliff Palace.
 Cliff Palace was built in hol- low 80 feet high at the center and more than 400 feet long. In the central part 1t was five stories high, but most of the upper rooms have crumbled away. It is estimated that about 1000 persons lived in Cliff Palace.

If I lived in such a place, should like to have a parachute strapped to my back all the time was outdoors, Otherwise, if l should slip, I might tumble too far for comfort.
 The Cliff Dwellers cut steps in the sides of cliffs to help them in getting down to the valleys and in climbing up again. They also used logs, with notches cut at the sides, for climbing. Even so, 1t is likely that some fthem slipped and fell while scalign the cliffs.
 It Is doubtful that the Cliff Dwellers chose such high places because they wanted to be up in the world" The probable reason for their strange dwellings was fear of enemies. Warriors from other tribes could not easily attack the Cliff Dwellers.

HIGH.LrvTNG INDIANS.

Many persons like high places. Tn the Bible we read of those who built the Tower of Babel" In 1889 the French set up Eiffel Tower, a structure 9s4 feet high. Recently two buildings--each of them higher than Eifflel Tower--were finished in New York city. One of these, the Empire State building, rises to the height of 1,250 feet! Single Col cut Line
 Before white men came to this country, there were people who built dwellings at great heights. I am thinking of the Cliff Dwellers.
 The Cliff ,Dwellers made their homes in northern Mexico and in the southwestern part of the Unit ed States. Their homes were built in hollows on the faces of cliffs. sometimes as much as 900 feet above the valley below.

A Splendid Opportunity

During the World war the reputation Of Columbia
university for academic freedom went into eclipse The
discharge Of Cate, Dana and Fraser and the resig-
nation of Robinson and Beard contrasted sharply with
President LoweTs defense of Munsterberg, Lask and
others.
In the last decade, however, President Butler has
encouraged at least mild liberalism and himself fire.
quently has spoked in behalf of this position No
single act is more convincing in this matter than the
recent appointment of Dr. Leo Woman as professor
OF economics to succeed the late Henry Rogers Seager
DR.. Wolman is committed thoroughly to the cause
Of organized labor though as scientist he does not
approve of all foolish policies of labor leaders, say
those of Matt Wol More, he is something beyond
a friend in theory.
He has been actively identified with one of the
most aggressive, successful and statesmanlike of the
unions the Amagamated Clothing Workers He has
been their chief economic expert, devised their I'M
employment program and is director Of the Amalga-
mated banks. He founding father of the New
School for Social Research.
There is no ADLER American student of the labor
movement than Leo Wolman. His appointment is a
tribute both to the sound judgment of the economies
department and to the hberality of the administra
ton at Columbia

Attitude All Wrong

THE American attitude toward
4 crime and it's treatment. is
and always has been, a hodge podge
OF irrationalities and inconsistencies.
First, we have a spasm of harsh
ness, and then a spasnl of ma1dlin
sentimentality, or vice versa, each
leading to the other as inevitably
as night leads to day.
One moment we are for putting
all criminals in prison and keep
ing them there, while the next we
are for letting them all out on one
preteXt or another.
At no time have we done a very
good job of checking them up.
either before, or afterward.
Our administration of Justice is
about as vague and capricious as a
roulette wheel, and that very fact
has attracted more than one vac
Hating youth to embark on a
career of crime.
One chance in two Of not getting
caught, one chance in two of not
being convicted, one chance in two
OF getting parole-how could the
law offer better inducement to
step out and gamble with it?

action. The color of the hair, for
instance, may be inherited, but the
color of the hair changes in later
life due to various circumstances
and experiences. The color of the
skin may be modified by exposure
to light.
Unfortunately for the direct ap-
plication of this knowledge to spe-
cific cases, there has been such ire
mendous mixture of human beings
in breeding that it is practically
impossible to find human beings
with eyes of absolutely pure color.
In other words, eyes may be blue
to ordinary appearances, but pure
blue eyes are so rare as to be al
most absent.
Hence, it is not possible to say
because the eyes of both parents
are blue that the child will have
blue eyes, the reason being that
the parents probably have not pure
blue eyes, and, according to the
Mcclellan law, it would require pure
blue eyes to produce in every in
stance a blue-eyed child.
