Of the years outstanding stunts in
tanning Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, Simmons
and Cronin in succession in the all
star major league game.
Winner of 80 games during the
regular National League season and
victor in two out of three World
Series starts, Deans accomplishments
as well as his colorful personality ap-
pealed more strongly to the sporting
fraternity than the exploits of any
baseball star since Babe Ruth was at
the peak.
A share Of the vote in this years
poll, however, coupled Dizzy and his
21-year-old brother Paul, or "Daffy'
Dean, as an ENTRY on the grounds
that their pitching accomplishments
are inSeparable. Thus, while Dizzy stood
at the top of the list, he also COM
bined with his brother to finish fifth
on the basis OF this freak balloting.
.Clinching the runner-up role on the
strength of his remarkable achieve
ment IN capturing both British and
American amateur golf championships
this year, Lawson Little was rated the
outstanding amateur of 1884 in COM
petition with strong group of rivals.
Voted first by eight experts, Little
was included in the top three on more
than half the ballots and easily out
pointed his leading amateur rival, Fred
Perry. world champion tennis player
and British Davis Cup ace. Perry
finished fourth, trailing Max Baer,
the heavyweight boxing champion, as
well as Dizzy Dean and Little. Perry

Anderson Recovering.

TINE only casualty remaining is
Stan Anderson, Grayson's under
study, who was threatened with
pneumonia, but he is expected to be
able to return to practice next week.
Thornhill's chief worry was whether
the ex-casuals would be able to round
into playing shape rapidly enough to
be at full effectiveness on January !.
The Stanford coach yesterday tried
several new plays he may use against
the Crimson Tide and also continued
to run some maneuvers from shift.
He disclosed that friends of Stanford
had supplied him plentifully with in
formation about 'Bama's style of play
and personnel.
ThornhiIl was most concerned
about that big Alabama line" after

Rain Hits Alabama.

UNIVERSITY, Ala, December 10
P).-Weather was a major
problem with Alabama's Grim
son tide today, with only two days
of work on the home field left before
departure for Pasadena and new
year day battle with Stanfords In
dians in Rose Bowl.
For two days rain has made the
practice field soggy and slowed down
workouts. A planned offensive scrim-
mage against Stanford defensive for
nations was cut short and it ap-
peared doubtful that the tide would
get in its full quota of work today
Coach Frank Thomas in announc-
ing his program Monday had billed q
defensive scrimmage against Stanford
offense today.
The workout tomorrow will be the
last full afternoon left for the tide
and snappy signal drill Friday prob
ably will end the home training.
A workout in San Antonio on
Saturday afternoon will be the last
the squad gets before it arrives In
Pasadena on Christmas eve. The
Occidental College field will be used
by Alabama for the last week of work
before the game.

Cooperation.

TH HERE are two types of slam
bidders. The first leaps to the
slam at once on the basis of
Il the values shown by the OPEN
ing bid. viz: One heart, one
spade, six spades, seven spades; the
second is a fiend for constructive
bidding. Every suit is bid at least
once and no trumps twice. Naturally,
the true contract purist shuns both
extremes. I might add sententiously
that there is a time and place for
everything" and this maxim applies
to construction as we'll as to the
broader emotions of life. No con-
structive bid should be made without
a purpose-and the purpose is usually
to find out about the prospects of
duplication in the hands.
To blithely wade into constructive
bidding without the suit having been
mutually agreed upon by both part
ners is the height of folly. North
may know that the hand is eventu-
ally going to play at seven clubs, but
as long as South does not share that
knowledge, South may weary of re-
bidding his club suit and leave North
in very fine ace-showing bid
North had told South somewhat
bigotedly, before todays hand was
dealt, that "he didn't want any pro-
lection; that he hated protection;
anG that when you have 'em, bid
'em." After two game hands, and
three good part score hands had been
passed out by North, South got a

thing that really matters is trying
to put yourself in the place of others,

Do you see?
Dear Mrs. Post: While my sister
visited me she got in touch with
several old college friends, who asked
her to their houses to lunch and to
dine on many occasions. While I
do not know these women very well,
it seems to me I should have been
asked to come with sister to their
house. We're they correct in leav-
ing me out entirely?"
Answer: From the point of view
of correctness, one does not neces-
sarily invite the person with whom
an intimate friend is staying. But
agree that it would have been
thoughtful of them to include you

Everyday Psychology
BY DR.. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Social Taboos.

A SOCIAL taboo is something that
is outlawed by public opinion.
Why do we have such taboos? Even
the most ardent followers of taboos
cannot answer. The best you can get
out of them is that the thing tabooed
is lust not done" 1t appears that
they are afraid that public opinion
is loaded with psychological dynamite
of some sort.
Any taboo is a social stabilizer, a
shock -absorber against the psychic
jolts of individualism The aim is to
keep the social mind intact and thus
preserve the social body The most
ardent taboo worshipers are morbidly
afraid of public opinion, will try
nothing new.
TabooS are not to be Sneered at.
I know of no better way to estimate
social progress than to study group
taboos. Not only may you in this
way measure the intelligence OF the
individuals that compose the group.
but you may also calculate to
nicely the probable fate Of nnova-
tions. New ideas must be congenial
before they become contagious. Social
inertia, that is, fear of change, has
its laws, which are just as exacting as
the law of falling bodies.
Living is both a science and an art,
fraught with its own peculiar hazards.
So a person cannot, in the interest
of self-preservation, make whole
sale abandonment of the stock ideas
of his group, even if they are scien-
titf1cally unfounded.
If you live, you must live by ta-
boos. If you discard some taboos,
you will find that others, usually
more rational. take their places.

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.
"Pariah. "

IN AMERICA and Europe drummers
are generally respected, even if at
times jaZzy members of our orches-
tras and community. In India, how
ever, they are pariahs! And thereby
hangs our tale.
For the word pariah comes to us
from the Indian word parai, meaning
q large drum.
Drum beating in India was consid-
erd such an inconsequential occupa-
tion that, pursuant to the prevailing
system, only the members of the low
lest caste were assigned to it. These
were known as paraiyar, those Of the
low caste or drum beaters.
In our use of the term we have long
since dropped its connection with
drum beating, but it still strongly
connotes the contempt with which
the original word was endowed, that
sentiment held for one who is de-
spised by society and is outcast.

The Hay Diet
New Way to Vibrant Health.
Y WILLIAM HOWARD HAY, NJ. D.

water cress or beet tops, every element
necessary for growth, function and
perfect health has been offered to the
infant, and more would be not only
superfuous but potential danger.
1t is common practice among pedi-
africans to introduce starchy foods Of
concentrated character long before
this period, but the fact that the in
fant does not die is no sign that 1t
has been helped by this practice.
The first two years of life are the
most vital Of all, and it takes much
to kill healthy young child, but our
infant mortality is dreadful, In this
enlightened country, and insist that
this is very largely due to the too
early introduction of the concentrated
starches and sugars, especially II these
are of the usual refined sort.
We know that the laboratory rat
will die on the refined Starches and
sugars, even more quickly than If fed
nothing at all, as the Rockefeller In
stitute experiments so amply testified,
so why expect this same practice to
fail to harm children of tender age?
After the end of the second year,
when the mouth is fully equipped with
teeth for chewing foods. then the sa-
Iva contains much higher percent
age of ptyalin. and the time has ar
rived for the use of concentrated
starches and sugars, but not till then,
else nature is all out Of tune. Thou
sands Of little children are being
raised today without any concentrated
starch and sugar till this period of
full dentition is reached, and their
health is infinitely better than that
of the children fed starches earlier.
They are either not subject to the
usual infantile diseases, or these are
of such mild character as to offer
little disturbance to daily play, and
their rate of growth is average, with
far greater activity than is ever OBJ
served in those children fed with more
concentrated foods at earlier periods.
Children are wonderfully adaptable,
and can soon become accustomed to
things that are not good for them.
but always at a considerable expense
in vitality.
No amount of resistance or vitality
will overcome deficiencies, however,
and if you would have your children
develop properly and without disease
make sure that all the vitamins are
present every day.
