Brutality May Ruin Game

IN the brutal spectacle at Asbury Park, P. Hal Sims
Il not only popped Oswald Jacoby on the nose in
swirl of passion some disagreement, but hoiSted
him out of his chair by the ear The timely inter-
yentiOn of the committee quelled the brutality be-
fore it reached the hair pulling stage which
great mercy. If b ige has come to this, perhaps
it would be good hing to revive stud poker in
large way. Otherwise the country will be overrun
with the pathetic figures of punch-drunk bridge
players rocking their heels and reminiScing about
famous bridge contests in which they participated
when they young and could still take it. If Mr..
Jacoby's turns to caufower that will be body
blow to the game of bridge and the first bodyblow
to the in sporting history.
Mr. Fisher seems to be a Stud-poker shark COM
parable to the best contract bridge sharks He does
not guarantee that his system will win for his stu
dents but he does set forth the mathematical pos
sibilties which confront the sedenary athlete of the
stud table in most of the problems of the game He
tells how hard it is to draw seVen-high straight
flush which he had found to be the rarest straight
flush of ALL and inspires hope in chapter entitled,
What chance have of improving my hand?"
Mr.. Fisher ignores all the degenerate versions Of
the noble pastime such seven-card Stud with the
deuces wild and nine-card with the one-eyes, jacks
and black mines the loose probably on the ground
that these introduced by ladies. That would
be good theory, these variations smack of bridge
and no sef-respecting tobacco-Chewng eating
player would wish to be found dead in of these
games, much less alive.

Mr.. Garner Could Help

MIR. FISHER does not give detailed instruction as
1V1 to what to do in the event of swirl of passion
in stud, leaving impression what if it comes to
that the genuine stud player will know enough to
switch out the lights and start punching the basis
of every man for himself. He does, however, tell
what to do in the event of raZzing.
Some losing players will, by their bad temper,
attempt to bully an aggressive opponent out of max
ing aggressive plays" the expert writes. I'm max
ing an offensive play against heavy loser, do not
appear to rub it in. But do not abandon your prn-
ciples to baby hard loser"
In other words, do not pull his ear, but get his
money.
For some reason bridge has claimed rating as the
genteman's game and is considered nowadays part
of the social equipment of young officers in the
army They do teach dancing, tennis and the etiquet
of the seven-fork formal dinner to students at the
military academy VINO desire to enter the foreign
service. But the young men will have to pick up
their bridge instruction for themselves.
There is yet time to re-estabish stud poker as the
old army game. Possibly Vice-President Garner who
is one of the great American experts in stud would
help to install Mr.. Fishers stud poker blue book as
one of the official studies at West Point; this might
bring back that sturdy old American delicatessen,
the plug of eating tobacco with the tin tag. 1t is
something to consider

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

CCARLET FEVER is one Of the most treacherous
- of the diseases that afflct children, principally
because in so many it is so mild as to be al
most overlooked.
In MANY cases. nevertheless, it attacks the kid

about a serious Gripping Of these organs, II not
death.
In most of the cases of scarlet fever swelling of
the glands in the neck is a common sign so that
any time child has fever, nausea, vomiting and
swelling of these glands, with more or less severe
sore throat and slightly red eruption on its
skin diagnosis of scarlet fever must be considered
NEXT to the serious effects on the kidneys, which
~ are rather common in scarlet fever is the dan
ger to the hearing. The severe inflammation and
swelling in the throat may extend into the tube
which passes from the back Of the head to the ear
and thereby affect seriously the organs Of hearings
It has been found that almost every patient with
scarlet fever has some slight inflammation OF the
kidney
If children with scarlet fever are put to bed
promptly, if their kidneys spared by the feeding
of light suitable diet if they get the right kind OF
fluids and if examinations made regularly day
after day. to control trouble as 1t starts, the
danger to the kidney is much less.
THE best protection one can have against compli-
Il cations of scarlet fever is a careful watch for
their development by the doctor.
At the same time, the doctor will watch the state
of the blood and food substances suitable to main
tanning it in good condition at the earliest posi-
bic moment.
Due to the work of Drs George F. and Gladys
Dick we now have skin test which makes it posi-
BILE TO determine whether a child is likely TO eaten
scarlet fever when exposed to it and also methods
of raising the resistance Of the child in case us re-
sistance is low
In times when scarlet fever is an epidemic in any
community, parents should consider the possibility
of giving to their children this scientific type OF
scar ct fever prevention.

So far the bureau of labor
statistics has made no official
guess because it has not had the
machinery for making a scientific
one. However, its chief, Isador
Lubin, believes accurate informa-
ton is needed sadly, and that it is
the function of the government
to supply it. He asked congress
to authorize a special census of
unemployment this fall and when
that plan failed he started or an
other one.
This week the bureau begins
special study of all available I'M
employment figures in an effort
to work out methods Of making
more reliable estimates than any
which exist. 1t will spend several
months on the task. At the end
of that time it will announce its
estimate and the exact method
used in making it.

than 100000 is the latest out
break of a controversy which has
troubled the United States for a
long time.
4 LII through the early years of
L n the depression business, la
Dor and government were at odds
about the number of unemployed.
Congress ordered a check made
in the 1880 census, but methods
used in enumerating and tabulat-
ing results were under constant
fire.
By 1882, the Hoover administra-
ton was being accused of mini
MIXING the number out of work.
In the last few months New Deal
officials, recounting the work Of
recovery agencies, have used fig
ures smaller than those Of labor.
Industry criticises labor's figures
as reflection on the way it has
co-operated with the recovery
program.
The A. F. of L. counts as unem-
ployed all persons not employed
in industry. In it's latest figures,
for June, it estimates that 1,813,-
900 had work under government
agencies-PWA, Emergency Relief
Administration and CCC-leaving
$4,000 without work of any
kind.
The Chamber Of Commerce does
not indicate whether it counted
workers on government pay rolls
or not. 1t does, however, claim
that at least two million persons
are unemployable, and that the
number out of work because of
business conditions is thus only
five million.
