VssHE average man eats seventy
4 six thousand six hundred and
fifty meals before he is three score
years and ten-if he doesn't over
sleep and miss his breakfast some
day
Is it any wonder that the aver
age woman has difficulty in pro-
viding new food for each meal.
or each day, or even each month?
In sooth, there are not enough
d fferent kinds of food to provide
daily variety, even if she were to
resort to roots and herbs and
such. The best thing the house
V fe can do about this appalling
tendency of the average man" to
consume meals is to provide COM
binations of the various known
foods-that is the really good
combinations.
Winter Suggestions
Take peas. for example. Have
you ever delved into the diverse
ways In which peas may be
served? The list is almost mex
haustible. now that pea salads
have added their store of posi-
bilities. But at this season of the
year, you will be delighted with
the delicious combinations OF
meat and peas. Dreamed chicken
and peas was one of the first dis
coveries in the way of meat and
pea combinations and it was uni
yersally liked. But there are
others just as delicious. Here are
some tested recipes for combining

have used up to this year-if the
court in Texas will forfeit it to us;
otherwise we will buy one.
"On our staff there are a number
of qualified pilots. Two of these will
be selected for permanent aviation
duty.
"The use of an airplain, as | see
it," Woodcock said, twill be just an
ordinary use of an obviously prac-

''We expect the areas which now
require several months of working
in searches by ground parties may
be covered in a, few days. Besides,
stills in the open are usually screen

are not hidden to aviators.
The aviation sections expected to
be complete within two months.
Areas particularly to be patrolled,
Woodcock said, will be islands in
the Mississippi river, portions of
North Carolina and Florida, and
wooded regions of southern Mary :

Spotting stills from the air has
been employed by the bureau pre-
viously with airplanes rented by the

RETURN ENGAGEMENT OF
STRANGE INTERLCDE
At FOrd's Theatre, Baltimore,
Commencing April 9th

| OYAAAAAAOAASAAA0 $AKA11 VVAA
After months of negotiation, ar
rangements have finally been made
by Harry A. Hinkel, manager of
Ford's Theatre, Baltimore, with the
Theatre Guild of New York for a
return engagement of Eugene
O'Neill's nine-act drama, Strange
Interlude", for six performances be-
ginning Monday, April 9Th. When
this play was presented in Baltimore
last spring, there were crowded
houses at all performances. The
promise was then definitely given
by the Theatre Guild that it would
send the play back to Baltimore at
the earliest possible date. Ever
since then Strange Interlude" has
been touring the country, and every
where it has left broken records
behind.
Another promise that the Theatre
Guild will keep when Strange In
terlude" returns here, is that it will
have both cast and a production
which are up to the highest points of
excellence. Miss Elizabeth Risdon
will head the company of New York
players, which will be sent here.
Miss Risdon has been with the
Theatre Guild for years, and on ac-
count of her versatility, she has been
cast in nine different sleading roles.
Her early training with the famous
Granville Barker Repertory Com
pany fitted her to assume the many
different roles which have fallen to
her lot.
Among THE other metropolitan
players who will appear here in
Strange Interlude" are Glen An
ders, Leonard Nude, Maurice Nc
Rae, Richard Barbee, Ethel Westlay,
John Burns, Maud Durand and Jack
Grattan.
And again the same unusual hours
of attendance will be feature of
this play. The performance will
start at $50 and not end until HOO
O'Clock, with dinner intermission
from TAO to 900.

I Knute Kenneth Rockne became a Legendary figure in the sports world through his great success as coach of football at Notre Dame univer- sity, South Bend, Ind. One of his greatest successes was scored in the 1890 season when Rockne again put over a winning team. This team was rated as one of the two best, If not the best, eleven in the country.
 Rockne's ability to produce win ming teams, his own vivid personal ity, his saneness in his utterances, made anything he did or had to say at any time news for the sports pages.
 Rockne came to the United States as an emigrant boy from Norway, at the turn of the century. Three decades later found him one of a half-dozen really important sports figures of the nation. Those years contain a great grist of achievement, all of which was filled with amusing incidents.
 One of hundreds of stories told of Knute Rockne, perhaps, better than any other, typifies the man. It was after the first half of game with Nebraska, at that time the greatest rival of the Fighting IriSh' or NOtre Dame.
 Nebraska was far ahead when the first half ended. The players tremblea to think what Rock" would have to say during the GUS tomary dressing room between halves peroration. But Rockne didn't appear.
 Just as an assistant manager ar rived to tell the captain that It was time to return to the field,~ Rockne entered the dressing room. He looked | about. giving a swift glance to all. scowling impartially. With all the disgust he could command he ut tered just two words:
 I ''Ffghting Irish!"+ | Notre Dame won the game.s'
 Although Rockne produced many winning team, none had been more celebrated than the Notre Dame l SPA Varsity combination which contain ed the famous -Four Horsemen of Notre Dame" They were Stuhl- dreher, Miller, Layden and Crowley, | immortally famous backffeld, all of whom won individual success years later, as football coaches. iY | "The -Four Horsemen," however, are only four among a large group of Rockne's pupils who have be- come capable coaches. | Rockne's system" has been cop jed more than any other. Youths have talked blithely about the NO tre Dame system" although they knew no more of what it contained than they did of international bank ing law.
 His coaching schools have ever at tracted aspirants to the field as well as other coaches already successful but who sought more knowledge. | He disliked almost with Y a hate. the sissy type of boy. He did not | like fraternities. He did not like co-eds. Most of all he detested drug cowboys" ''mezzanine floor hurdlers," and their ilk. He liked to see his boys wear corduroy | trousers and sweaters. He liked to see them walk fast.
 | Despite the specialization called for in producing a national cham pionship football team, Rockne was sincere in his enthusiasm for intra- mural sports.

nance and manufacturing by thou sand dollars sa year. Running at an average of $3,00O a year or $1,- 200 below sales work are technical engineering, yconstructior, and pro- duction work in manufacturing. Pro- fessional workers who have neces- sarily utilized most of their time since graduation in further study average about $2,000. This is also the approximate return for teach CTS, irrespective of graduate study.
 Sixty per cent of the men report ing have not changed their positions since graduation. Those who have changed, have held from two to seven jobs. and are earning on the average of about two hundred dol lars a year less than those who are still with their first concern. The arresting thing in connection with the number of jobs held is that academic graduates who have changed their jobs are earning ap- proximately two hundred dollars a year more than those who are still on their first job; while Sheffield Scientific school men who have changed are receiving five hundred dollars a year less than those who have stayed with the job.
 Further investigation into the rea- sons for job changing. the general courses followed to obtain advances in position, comparison of subse- quent progress with records of achievement in college, and related Investigations are now being Car ried on by the Department of Per sonnel Study and the Yale Graduate Placement Bureau of New York city, with view. to. ultimately obtaining from men out of college informal tion which may benefit those now at the university. n

The advices came to the chief executive through the state department and were mentioned by him at his noon press conference. The department now Is checking with it's sources of information to determine the au- thenticity of the reports and the ex- tent of the damage.
 MT. Hoover said his dispatches in- dicated the earthquake was still in progress. Immediately on receipt of the news MT. Hoover called the Am erican Red Cross and issued orders to be ready to lend any possible as- sistance. The army and navy are to act in conjunction with the Red Cross, he said
