'SPORTSPARADE'
OFFERS VARIETY
IN TODAY'S NEWS
By HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent


NEW YORK, March 29.-Through
devious channels comes word that
a western reserve student has dis
covered a fool proof method for
figuring out a baseball pitchers ex-
act standing. Not where he stands
with his feet, BE- where he stands
with his pitching.
This bright young man puts his
pencil to-Suork and somewhat later
is able to- say, for example, that
Lefty Grove stands at 937564859.2
with equalling Connie Mack and
the bat boy.
Personally I don't intend to 60
in much this year for the higher
mathematics. How many they won
and how many they lost is suffi-
cient for me. If I can't sit down
and look at ball game and figure
out whether pitcher did a pretty
good Job or not, I reckon l better
get a job smelling salts. Maybe
the Young students figured this
thing out Just for fun, like butch
ers used to throw in hunk of
suet, just for the pure, unalloyed
Joy of the thing.
Adoption of the plan will mean
but one thing-Professor Eeinstein
will have to be imported as official
scorer for the major leagues. And
I'm afraid the dear doctor would
be shocked nigh unto death by the
language of his press box compan-
ions.
How about matching Ben East
man and Phar Lap? OF course,
Phar Lap would have to be given
head start to make it even.
When word reached the Califor-
MIA brethren that Gene Venzke had
run mile in 4:10, and that George
Spitz was jumping to all sorts OF
heights. the California brethern
arched eyebrows and muttered the
equivalent of "Oh, yeah!" when
word reached these benighted parts
that Eastman had broken Ted Mer-
ediths heroic 440 mark it was, so
far as this department has been
able to learn, accepted without
murmur.
The casts lack of skepticism may
lie in the fact that it's track ex-
perts got an eyeful-a very full eye
ful-of Eastman at the 1881 1. c.
A. A. A. A. games. Blazing Ben"
removed all doubt as to his ability
when he tied the immortal Mer-
ediths mark with stride that
seemed to be no more than a half
hearted cGnter.
And then, the casts ready ac-
ceptance of the 440 record may lie
in the fact that we easterners be-
lieve all Westerners to be Supermen
Men, if you please, like Mark
Twain's hero who, when playful,
used the meridians of longitude
and parallels latitude for a seine,
dragged the Atlantic ocean for
whales, scratched his head with
lightning and purred himself to
sleep with thunder. In other words,
we don't put anything beyond the
mighty men of the sun kissed
slopes.

He confirmed the theory OF geo.
IogIst of one o. the Standard COM
panies, advanced % as a number Of
years ago. That theory Is that the
original folding IN Montana was
from northeast to aoathwest. When
the Rocky Mountains and other
young upIsfts p&ed their noses
through the pralraes. they cross
folded the older folds, the new ones
pointing from northwest TO south
east. The folding In Dry Creek dis
trict was originally from northeast
to southwest, else enat-and-west, he
said. Younger beds we're subse-
quentIy folded by the terrific warp
ing OF the Rocky Moumtains. These
beds broke under the pressure and
formed the sharp folding and fault
ing. The deeper. harder fOr1na-
tions, were little altered BY the
newer folding. So Il was that he

 Mary-Frances drew away from him. It was time now to talk. Sne loved him, of course; but vaguely something seemed to be the matter with something.
