MARIETTA, Ohio, Aug. %
Dick Neale, Kansas City cupboard
motorboat enthusiast, today was
in possession of the coveted
Dawes Trophy, which he won in
the feature event of the annual
midwest regatta on the historic
Muskingum River here.
While more than $4,000 per-

75-cent Baseball

Among the steps to be taken
Is a general reduction in ad-
mission prices. The magnates
are alert to the necessity Of
putting baseball within the
reach of the man who has been
hit by the depression--a1ld
who hasn't? Consequently the
general admission to baseball
in both loops another season
will be IS cents. You can figure
on that!
There will be other higher
priced seats, but the man who
is now paying $40 for his
baseball will be getting it IS
cents cheaper another season.
Meantime, we believe there
is logic in admitting some Of
the coast towns to the majors,
and since any expanding of the
leagues must be done two teams
at a time, Los Angeles and San
Francisco may be on the right
track.
Certainly a section so popu-
lous as the Pacific Coast should
have a say in baseball cham,

ter and the time may not be
too soon now, provided there
is enough financial backing out
there to carry their entries over

he said, inconsistency enough:
They're in. They can't
miss"
So, by using the Mr.. Joe Nc
Carthy system of deduction, I'm
able to announce exclusively this
morning that the Athletics, who
are six games into second place,
can't go wrong, and that the
Yankees, who are 1912 games
into the pennant, can and un-
doubtedly will.
This, in fact, is probably the
reason he has signed a contract
with a syndicate to write his
own, his personal and intimate
picture of the 1882 world series
from the steps of the dugout.

And while, in fancy, the Phila-

DR.. CLARK DEFENDS
CO-EDUCAT|ON PLAN
Declared Aid to "CuItivation
of Morals" by American U.
Chancellor.

Co-education was defended last night
by DR.. Lucius C. Clark, chancellor of
American University, in a radio address
over WJSV, as an aid to cultivation of
morals"
The constant companionShip, the
asking no favors and granting no spe-
cial privileges" he said, "is not detri-
mental to moral growth in young men
and women. Even sex intoxication,
often noticeable in oversheltered young
people, quickly fades out in the light OF
the new day of normal associations.
Against Athletic Scholarships.
DR.. Clark scored athletic scholarships
SIT is a question" he said, IF it would
not be more honorable to put paid
professional team in the field than to
use many of the rather absurd methods
and devices now used to maintain ath-
leticS Professional teams representing
schools would not disturb the scholastic
program as the present method does.
Either give us athletic competition for
sports sake or general practice OF
supporting paid teams on paid basis"
I'VE have come to sorry spectacle
In this generation" DR.. Clark charged,
saying that there was need for some
person or persons, or institution or in
stitutions "to teach us today a respect
for law and recognition Of order that
should prevail
Law Breaking Excuses Scored.
parents neither command nor, in
large measure, merit the respect from
their children due parents" he de-
clared 1.-The State cannot support
enough police. secure enough judges
or pass enough laws to make our people
law abiding. The sheer nonsense of
some of our distinguished citizens in
explanation of our present condition is
most humiliating. AS Mr.. Hoover is
made the scapegoat of all our present
Ills, so prohibition by some is the cause
of all law breaking, and by some youth
makes up the rank and file of the law
breakers.
Our schools and colleges have great
responsibility, but they are not now nor
can they ever be, a community con-
science. There are no man-made meth
ods of morals. There are no machine
manners. Conscience, morals and man
ners are matters of the spirit; they
flower in an institution of learning, as
they find favor in the lives of the in
structors and instructed in the institu-
tions Of learning"

To EYEBALLS

TORONTO, April G.N.S0.
Sight has been restored to a
woman here who virtually was
blind for nearly Is years as result
of a rare defect of the cornea
of her eyes.
Specially ground contact"
glasses permit Mrs. Thomas
Hunnisett to see again. Contact
glasses, recently developed by
ophthalmologists, fit on the eye
balls and the eyelids close over
them a gentle suction induced by
the original pressure keeps them
in place.
In most cases the glasses are
used by persons who need glasses
but consider the usual type of
glasses unbecoming.
Mrs. HunniSett suffered from a
condition called "conical cornea,"
in which the lens of the eye is
conical in shape. Short sighted
ness or far-sightedness is caused
by excessive curvature of the
cornea one way or the other.
In conical cornea cases, how
ever, the lens of the eye is liter
ally curved excessively in every
direction. In Mrs. Hunnisett's
case the defect was so great that
she could not read even large

NEW PLANETOID
HUGS EARTH

LONDON, April l QN.S)
Discovery of a new planetoid,
nearer the earth than any other
ever located, was announced to.
day by DR.. A. C. D. Crommelin. a
former president of the Royal
Astronomical Society.
The new body is in the Bootes
Constellation, above the star
Arcturus. 1t is only three miles
in diameter.
The planetoid is nearer to the
earth than Eros, which, passing
the earth at 100000 miles, held
the previous solar system record
for proximity to the earth.
The new body was first noted
as a comet by Prof, Delporte, of
the Belgian Royal Observatory.
The significance of the dis
covery was described by DR..
Crommelin as follows:
"The pIanetOid will enable
researchers to determine the
scale of the entire universe
with greater accuracy than
hitherto. 1t also will give a
new value for the sun as a
mass compared to the earth.
The planetOid at present is
ten million miles from the
EARTH"
Officials at the Naval Observa-
tory were informed of the new
planetoid last week and sue
ceeded in locating it on Mon
day and Wednesday nights.
Photographs were made on both
occasions, but the local astron-
omers were unable then to say
just how close it is to the earth.

BILL SHY,
SAYS MILLS
TOULOUSE
Lacks $165,OO0, 900 to Meet
Budget Needs, He Asserts;
Crisp Sees "PoIitiCs"

Confronted by the statement
of Secretary of the Treasury
Mills that its tax bill would
not balance the budget, the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee today voted to make
dividends received by indi-
viduals subject to the normal
income tax.
The change, it was estimated
by Acting Chairman Crisp Cd
of Georgia, would raise $80,000,-
900 and assure balanced budget.
Crisp explained that the divi-
dend tax change would be effec-
tive only until July /, 1884.
The committee, he said, decided
1t was justified in calling upon
income taxpayers for further
sacrifice to maintain the Gov
ernment's credit.
Warning from Mills
With the House preparing
finally to pass the $1,000, ,000, 900
tax measure, Mills notified the
committee the measure was short
$165, 100000 of wiping out the
Treasury deficit in 1888.
In making this estimate, Mills
disagreed with the committee's
proposal that $234,000,000 could
be saved by strict Government
economy.
With the committees recon-
mendation for taxation f divi,
dends, the bill will yield $1,279,
900, 900, r $38,900,00O more than
enough to balance the budget,
Crisp told the House. This in.
cluded an estimated saving in
expenses of 5000, 100000.
