NHAY l is National Child
V Health Day. This year
when many families are in
want through unemployment. it
is expected that the date will be
observed with a more co-opera-
tive spirit than ever before.
Support Your Community Child
Health Program: 1t Protects Your
Home" is the slogan chosen by
the May Day Committee of the
State and Provincial Health
Authorities of North America.
The Committee has outlined the
plan thus:
Among the fundamentals upon
which May Day-National Child
Health Day 1932-focuses our at
tention are three elementary
necessities-the nutrition of our
children. the Importance of an
adequate clean and safe supply of
milk, and the protection of
motherhood.
Three Essentials
I'VE must develop a definite
community procedure to ensure
that every day in 1882 brings to
every child at least the three bare
essentials of milk, bread and some
fruit or vegetable. We must be
sure that every mother knows how
to concentrate first on these essen |
tials in the diet of her children
and after that to supplement her
menus in accordance with her !
means. The record of medicine |
and the sciences, including X-ray |
pictures, show beyond a doubt |
that if children lack essential
bodybuilding elements this year,
these cannot be made up to them
next year. This lack leaves a
permanent mark even in the
bones. Growth and development
are stunted unless the essentials
are provided.
"These essential foods must be
safeguarded from contamination.
This is especially true of milk.
Milk builds bone and muscle bet
ter than any other food. Yet Hn-

BY FOSTER HALEY,

n yIW YORK, March 8-When
| N the Foot Ball Rules Committee
| last month changed the rules
| to make the ball dead" when
any part of the carriers body except
his hands or feet touched the ground
i they intended that no exceptions be
made E K Hall. chairman of the
committee has made that point clear
in letter to the Associated Press.
Inquiries from both officials and
coaches had indicated some confusion
as to whether the committee intended
the rule to apply to a carrier falling in
an open field with. no one near.
What if a ball carrier should snp
and fall with a sure touchdown IN "ight
and that play should decide the came
one foot ball fan asked.
No Exceptions Intended.
Hall made it clear that the committee
intended no exceptions to the rule, no
compromise with a play which, sta
tistics gathered by the committee chow.
was responsible for many injuries last
season. wien the toll of dead and in
iurcl was the highest in the history OF
the game.
I'VE discuss this point at length in
the meeting of the committee Hall
wrote, "and realize that at first it will
lcok foolish and will not be popular to
see a mans forward progress stopped
by the automatic working of the rule
in cases where he might, in perfect
safety. get to his feet and rush on to
a touchdown.
1.-The difficulty lies in the fact that
the minute you try to make exceptions
you run into trouble. Furthermore,
the minute you make any exceptions
the rule ceases to be OF real value.
What the new rule seems to do is to
make 1t perfectly clear and instantly
and automatically understood by both
runner and opponents that the ball Is
dead and that the incentive to crawl
and the excuse fer piling on is abso-
lutely out of the picture. There were
so many injuries credited to piling on
last season that we. did not consider it
wise or safe to take any chances"
Too Much "Piling On"
Any one who has followed foot ball
the last few years must have seen-not
once, but many times-a runner tackled
two or three times before finally being
storped to the satisfaction Of the Off
cials If an official was inclined to hold
his whistle until there could be no
doubt the mans forward progress was
stopped or he was down in the grasp
of an opponent, then he could not, in
fairness. penalize the other eide for
making sure the man was stopped by
"piling on
There have been rules against 'piling
on" and crawling" for several years,
but reports to the Rules Committee in
dicate these have not been as rigiily
enforced as they might have been.

The ball is dead and shall be so de-
clared by the referee:

 In banking Shaw turned with tremendous energy to the study of finance, and when the free silver issue came into politics he started the state and nation with crisp and powerful arguments for the gold standard. This preceded his nomination by the Republican party as Governor of Iowa, and he served two terms, from 1889 to 1902.
 Roosevelt had heard him speak during the free silver campaign in the west, and called him from the Governorship to the Secre- tarship of the Treasury, where he served until 1907. It was after this that he met financial setbacks in New York and turned to the speaking platform. He traveled throughout the country as a lec- turer for the American Bankers association.

 She did that successfully until the show she was in played in Cincinnati and one of the girls with whom she had been in school discovered Gina was really Janet, and Malo really Flynn.
