What's in a Name?
The best stage name have ever
heard is Eastwood Lane. Yet it
belongs to a charming middle-aged
musician and composer who lives
quietly on Long Island and hasn't
been in the heavy limelight for some
years.
Marx Brothers Split?
And 1t now appears certain that the
Marx Brothers are going to break up
after all these years. Which is a
sign of the times! j.. For this is an
era when people, for some reason or
other, go strongest for some sort of
patter. And Groucho was singled
out for show because of his verbal
lunacy.
They tell me Harpo will go at once
to Europe, where pantomimic clowns
have never lost their standing.
He's one of the best. Paris will
probably make great fuss over him.
He'll probably take Zeppo with
him. But what becomes of the
other one-I never can think of his
name-Chico?
All of which is too bad, for these
brothers are among the last of our
important clowns And it's no
safe bet that they'll get along so well
without each other.

There Are Many Reasons

1AClS AAN 4ASAhv ASNGAoOAo
In it's efforts to see that every child
born in North Dakota is properly reg
istered with the state, the state de-
partment of health has advanced
many reasons for so doing.
Recently, in one of its bulletins, it
commented on a situation which may
seem trivial to many persons but
which can assume real Importance
under certain circumstances. The
condition mentioned is that Of high
school students participating in ath-
letic contests and whose eligibility
under the age limit is questioned.
Last fall we had the spectacle of
the school with the state high school
championship football team being
barred from participation for the
basketball title because one of its
star players was over age. The re-
suit was to dim the glory of it's foot
ball championship, even though
there is every reason to believe the
violation of the rules was uninten-
tional.
In many cases, as the department
points out, students have won vic
tories only to have their laurels taken
away from them when they were
found to be over age.
To adults, hardened by the buffet
ings of the world, it may seem a small
item that a boy is barred from taking
part in a high school sport or from
receiving credit for honors won. New
ertheless, if we have long memories,
we can recall that few tragedies of
our lifetime were more poignant
than those of our childhood and
youth.
