OF four miScues in the Saint in
field TO win the opening game OF
the series. 6-3, behind the steady
hurting Of Ole Jinx Phillips, who
limited the slugging Saints TO six
blows, three Of which were punched
IN one frame.
Sralla, Saint lefthander, made his
second appearance on the mound
for the locals and held the Ladds
TO eight blows and we're IL not for
the errors committed by the Saints
the game would have been decided
ly different as none of the visitors
runs were earned.
Ladds Lead
Harrington jumped to a two run
lead in the second inning pushing
the runs across the plate after two
men were out. Cartwright struck out
and Morris flied out to Griffin to
start the inning. G. Campbell took
first on Williams error and he came
home after Yoder singled TO center.
Campbell made third on the play
but as he took second the ball hit
him and bounced against the fence
and he raced home with the winning
run Yoder taking third on the play.
Phillips singled to left scoring Yod-
er but he went out at second on
Pratt's grounder TO Hill. They added
another in the fifth as a result
Of IN error ut second base. Pratt led

DEPLORE SMOKING
Capital Educator Declares
Offending Girls Should Not
Get Degrees.

BY the Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA, June 23.-A reso-
luton condemning smoking among
women, especially Catholic college
women, was adopted by the college
section OF the National Catholic Edu-
cational Association at its annual meet
ing yesterday. The session preceded
opening of the associations convention
today.
sister Mary Aloysius, head Of the
College of st. Teresa, Winona, MINI,
deplored prevalence of smoking among
college women and asserted that while
the church recognizes that smoking Is
not a sin, the Catholic college girl who
smokes, especially while attending a
school conducted by nuns, furnishes a
bad influence for others.
She said unless We can eliminate
from our colleges the things which are
contrary to purity expected Of cur
women / think we should close up our
schools"
Forbidding q girl to do anything
does not strengthen her and other
means must be taken, she said.
Sister Mary Lioba, dean CT Mount
Mary College, Milwaukee, pleaded for
work to eliminate smoking among
women as a means of leading toward
better wifehood and better motherhood.
Sister Mary Borromeo OF Washington,
D. c., suggested that colleges refuse to
grant honors to girls who smoke.

Coloring of Eggs.

Nearly all the ground nesting birds
have eggs which most deceptively match
their surroundings. Familiar examples
of this rule are those of the lark, the
lapwing, the pheasant and the partridge.
Although they differ in size and shade,
the dominant tint is Of the earth. The
birds which lay white eggs generally de-
posit them in holes or other sheltered
places where they are free from the
observation of other birds likely to de-
Stroy them. The birds of the seashore
provide possibly the most striking ex-
amples OF eggs splashed and blotched
with color to harmonic with the local
ity The ground color Of the guile
mot's egg may vary astor.shingly, from
cream to pale blue, but always the DOM
inant effect is the splashing of seaweed;
not simply the brown and black color
Of seaweed, but the actual shape Of sea-
weed in sprays.

ARGENTINA IS DECLARED
GOOD RAYON YARN FIELD

BY the Associated Press.
The Commerce Department says Ar
gentina, the largest Latin American
consumer of rayon yarn, and wholly
dependent on imported supplies, pre-
sents a rich field for United States pro-
ducers, whose interests are said to be
turning more and more to export trade.
American exporters, it is pointed out,
have heretofore extended little effort to
obtain a considerable portion Of the
Argentine trade, which in 1929 amount
ed to more than 2,500,000 pounds, and
which had shown a steady growth up
until the recent general business re-
cession
To date, the department says, Ameri-
can exporters have obtained very little
of the Argentine rayon trade, but are
now turning attention to that market,
hoping to capture larger share Of that
trade. Germany is at present the prin-
cipal supplier, having furnished 80 per
cent of the total imports in 1929. Fol-
lowing next were Italy with 81 per cent;
Netherlands, IA per cent; Switzerland,
9 per cent; United Kingdom, per cent,
and other countries, per cent.

these years If it
has been unable to prevent our pres
ent situation.
The complete and final answer is
that the remedy for our ills and the
only hope we have of preventing their
recurrence is not less education but
more; more study Of human problems,
wider dissemination of the results OBJ
tanned, more attention to adult educa-
ton, and increasing emphasis upon the
major task of institutions OF higher
learning, the development OF leader
ship. The obligations, opportunities
and necessities of education are greater
than ever before.
Holding fast to what we now have
that is good, we confront IN educan n
three related tasks; first, the cultiva-
tion of independence; second, the
elimination of the unesSential, and
third, to which the first and second are
preliminary, the restoration OF ideas to
their place in the educational scheme.
Inaugurates New Plan.
These three related tasks the Univer-
sity of Chicago has faced this year.
The new regulations permitting the
student to prepare himself for eXami-
nations in his own way, to absent him
self from classes and to present himself
for examination when he feels ready
to do so, are obviously designed to pro-
mote independence.
The new general courses eliminate
the unesSential; they demand mastery
Of important facts and important ideas
in the principal fields of learning. The
general examinations in content and
administration should accomplish the
same aims. They must of necessity en-
phasize ideas rather than facts.
FOresees New System.
Since the examinations will not be
given by the instructors who have
taught the various courses, the student
will be compelled to study and think
about the subject instead Of learning
the teachers words by heart. These
examinations will require organization,
coordination and reasoning upon the
facts learned It is even possible that
some day we shall have an examination
system that formally recognizes the
relationship of fact and idea. Under
such a system the student would have
to know the essential facts, and know
them all, before being permitted to take
the final examination.
On that examination, then, he might
have access to any reference books
whatever. The important thing would
not be his Information, but his ability
to handle 1t, to effect new combinations
and to develop his ideas. Some such
arrangement might dramatize the fact
that the Obligation of the educated
person is as much to understand as to
know.
The concept Of a general education
upon which the new college plan is
based means the cultivation of inde-
pendence, the elimination of the unes-
Sential and the restoration of ideas to
their place in the educational scheme.
The whole program puts a premium on
those qualities which our society de-
mands and lacks.
