BYRD'S 8 JOBS
. MADE CENTER
Of INQUIRY
Some Teachers Drawing More
Than One Pay Check, Says
! Sponsor of Probe

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 14.-Institut-
ing what he said would probably
be a thorough probe of the
affairs of the University of Mary
land, Senator Milton L. Veasy,
Of Worcester county, last night
introduced and had passed in the
Senate a reSolutin calling for a
list of employees and teachers of
the university, together with their
salaries, and the various positions
they hold.
Senator Veasy pointed out that
H. c. CCurly"O Byrd held at
least three positions-vice presi-
dent, head football coach and
director of athletics, for which
he is said to receive a total
salary of $11,500.
FavOrs Athletics Probe
The senator later declared he
also was in favor of probe into
the financing of the new univer-
Sity field house. He pointed out
that at the last session of the
legislature the university asked
for and got an appropriation of
$4,000 from the State to aid in
erection of the building.
-he college was to raise $158,-
600 :or the building but was able
to raise only $4,000, he said.
It is now ask the State for
$4,000, making up $4,000 Of
the sum due in August. Senator
Veasy said Byrd would be asked
where he got the $15,0 900 and why
none of the money vouchsafed
from athletics was forthcoming.
Probe to Start at Once
The senator told reporters he
understood there were some teach
ers or employees drawing salaries
from three or four different
sources.
The resolution asked that the
names be furnished Immediately
and it is probable that the in
vestigation will get under way
within the next few days.

Back
Nv LISA DUMONT

Hair goes higher and higher
in the back according to latest
news from New York and Paris.
The rule seems to be that
you can't have low hair-hne
with a high neck-line.
The brushed up style OF
dressing the hair hit the world
of fashion with bang early
in the season, but now the
line is more extreme than ever
before, and vastly becoming to
many women.

News comes that the knitting
vogue is even stronger in
Europe than it is here. That's
probably due to the fact that
they need more warm clothes in
their unheated houses, but it
means that we will continue t.
knit, crochet and to wear han6
stitched things for some time to
come.
When you see the clever
things that you can make, it's
easy to understand this rage.
With a little spare time, few
hanks of yarn or cotton thread,
and with a small bit of skill,
you can have a variety of suits,
frocks, blouSes, and things for
the house.
For a Beginner
Nowadays there are inStruc-
tors in all the scores, many of
them holding Dogular classes.
There are instructions printed
that give you stitch-by-stitch d.
rectionS, and you are sure to be
able to succeed. You needn't
even know how to knit or
crochet, if you really want some
of the new things. It's a pleas
ant way to spend time, too, and
has become quite a social asset.
COlOrS Popular
Many people are using fancy
stitches to make their garments
individual and different. Stripes
are popular, going either up and
down, or around. All sorts of
Scarfs, yokes, collars and
knitted-in designs lend variety.
ColorS are rampant, and you can
really choose whatever you
please. There are quite a few
different yarns you can use, too,
wool, boucle and cotton chief
among them.
Good with Suits
We have instructions for the
sweater photographed, which we
will be glad to send you if
you'll sepd in your stamped,
self-addressed envelope, as usual.

sign, with bib effect. turn-down

Child Health
Questions
No PIaymateS

@. My child, the only one in
the family, has practically no
playmateS of his own age. He
seems to be well and happy,
but sometimes I wonder if an
entirey adult surrounding can
be good for him. 1t seems to
me that he is a bit "Old-
fashioned" and old for his age.
What do you think? M. C.
A. I agree with you that an
entirely adult background is
bad for a child. Isolation from
children of his own age will
develop an anti-Social attitude
that will trouble him all his
life. I suggest that a play or
nursery school might be the
solution of your problem. There
are a number of excellent ones
in Washington.

white crepe that had a remov-
able cape banded with silver Sc
quinS. And at the same shop,
there was an afternoon dress of
black crepe with a sequin scarf
tied in cowboy kerchief fashion
about the throat. Now, there's
nothing to stop you from wear
ing the white cape with the
black dress, and vice versa, and
your dearest enemy probably
won't know the difference.
Jackets
Jackets are another good gag
for the gal with a limited al
lowance and unlimited dates.
There's one tricky affair of
black crepe that has sleeves
Slashed to the elbow. It's worn
over a black crepe dress with
bright colored top-the slashed
sleeves of the jacket willowing

necessary to show the nape OF
the neck.
This style is particularly be-
coming to the woman with a
thin face and classic features.
Ornaments
To indicate your knowledge Of
the high spots in fashion, it is
almost necessary these days for
you to wear something in your
hair when you go out in the
evening. JewelS-all kinds Of
them are the thing. Nail-heads
made of brilliants are extremely
smart when used to swirl the
hair and hold it in place in the
back.
A famous New York hair
Stylist is sponsoring coiffure
waved loosely back from the
face, masSed in curls high at
the side, and curled high in
the back. The hair is held in
place above the ears with jew
eIed mercury wings.
Other things to be worn in
the hair are ribbon hairbands
worn like a Roman emperor'S
crown. Schiaparelli has exc
cuted a diadem affair Of green
pheasant feathers. It is meant
to be worn further toward the
forehead than the jeWeled dia-
demS.
Loose CurIS
The curls of bygone days are
still with us, only they are piled
up high on the head and they
are supposed to be kept small
and loose.
AS to the hair in the front, it
should be brushed straight back
or slightly sideways from the
part. and the ears absolutely
must come out in the open in
their entirety.

Advice to the
LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
A Widow and Widower'S
Problem


Deor Miss Fairfax:
I'm man of 40 and think
a lot Of widow about the same
age. I'd marry her tomorrow
II I had any money or a Job,
which I haven't. Her Oldest
child. a boy of 20, disapproves
Of our love affair and she does
not want to anger him, as he is
her main support. She tells
me not to call when he is at
home. The chief reason of this
boys diSapproval is he is afraid
the neighbors might gossip
about his mother and me.
A. B. C.
When children begin to in
terfere in their parents love
affairs they are apt to be even
more disapproving than when
the case is reversed, and the
parents are the objectorS,
But it seems to me very likely
that the boy is more concerned
about your unemployment than
the question of neighborhood
gossip. Naturally his sense Of
obligation stops with his mother,
and does not include a possible
Stepfather whom she marries
at 40. Better make sure of a
job before you consider marry
ing this lady, as it might re-
suit in her losing her home if
you were to marry while still
unemployed,

It should be remembered,
however, that the sleeping re-
quirements Of the infant vary
In individual cases. Some
babies need more and some
manage to get along with less.
It is always safest, however,
to vary on the "more" side.
A baby that is deprived Of its
sleep is restless and nervous.
He doesn't digest his food
properly or gain weight as he
should.
All.Night Routine
From birth train your baby to
unbroken rest at night. The
habit makes for a happier baby
not to mention parent.
The long night sleep should
be continued throughout child
hood. The daytime nap, new
ever, may be gradually short
ened.
For the comfort of the par
ents Gathers have been known
to walk baby at night as well
as mothers, don't make the
afternoon nap any later than
3 o'clock or $3.50. You will rue
It later in the night if you do.
The Washington times., 1933-11-25

And q mother who has her
sleep broken regularly is not
in condition to give baby the
best Of care.
During the cold or cool
weather try to arrange to have
at least one of the daytime
maps taken out of doors.
Protect the baby from the
wind, and, of course, if the
weather is too cold or thefday
unpleasant postpone the out-of-
door nap until tomorrow. In
hot weather both maps may be
taken out Of doors in the
shade.
His Own Bed
To get the utmost value cut
of the hours Of sleep make
haby's sleeping conditions as
comfortable as possible.
He should have a bed by him
self and a room to himself,
whenever possible.
Never put him to bed In all
his clothes and before putting
him to bed at night sponge OH
the little face and hands with
q wash cloth wrung out OF luke
warm water.
Teach him to sleep through
the ordinary household noises.
but don't expect the Impossible
Of him.
It isn't necessary to walk on
tiptoes and whispers but a blar.
ing radio or hilarious party"
would disturb the sleep OF Rip
Van Wrinkle.
Sleeps Deeply
Never give the baby medl-
cine to make him sleep Many
Soothing syrups contain drugs
that are bad for him.
one of the explanations OF
the stories of babies "smothered
in their cribs" is the habit OF
giving him a taste of something
that makes him sleep deeply
too deeply to turn over II ne
becomes entangled in his bed
clothing.
Adapt his covering to the
temperature of the room. An
all-wool sleeping bag will help
keep him warm. Additional
lightweight blankets may be
added.
The sleeping bag is out in hot
weather as it prevents the free
circulation of air. Midsummer
babies can sleep comfortably in
diaper and shirt. On nights a
little cooler lightweight gown
and thin blanket may be used.
If the baby sleeps restlessly
or wakenS easily it may be due
to too strenuous play before
bedtime. All play after 4o'clock
should be quiet.
If the baby contiueS to be
restless it may be he is too
warm or too cold; a pin may
be scratching him or his cloth
ing may be too tight. A
healthy, comfortable baby sleeps
deeply.
ROeking the Baby
The question of rocking baby
is q disputed point. For the
past 20 years it has been re-
garded as one of the major sins
of child training, but of late a
certain school has arisen that
advocates the rocking chair.
Babies at the Children'S Hos
pital here are rocked regularly.
An old fashioned rocking chair
is part of the furnishing Of each
ward.
Babies undoubtedly need
"mothering." You can overdo
the business but you can also
neglect it to baby'S diSadvan-
tage. And, incidentally, yourself
