George Throws Out q
Ball Players, Too "

Forty-seven basebaIls, with a whole.
sale value Of $5s.75, were lost In the
crowd during a st. Cincinnati
night game this summer. The
Yankees, because the stands are so
convenient that so balls often have dis.
appeared during one game, spend from
$4,000 to $1,000 for basehalIs each
season. This Is the biggest bill In
the American league, the other clubs
averaging about $1,000. George
Moriarty says that he throws out more
basebalIs during a season than any
other umpire. That Is largely because
he figures, quite correctly, that when
an overland pitcher sails the ball there
must be something wrong with it. -. :.
He recalls one Boston game where he
had to throw out only four balls,
though, and Nick Altrock will tell you
that he used only one ball while pitch.

College Girls Education Much
More Costly Than That Of Boy

1t costs considerably more to send
a girl to college than a boy. The
biggest item of difference is the cost
of their clothing. The largest item
in the average male students bulge,
is meals, with clothing second, while
clothing outlay tops the goods bud
get with meals secondary. The CO.
ed spends almost twice as much for
clothing as does the average male
student. Popular opinion to the con-
trary Notwithstanding, the modern
coed smokes only fraction as much
as the average male student, and
spends little more per month on bar
Der and beauty shop combined than
he spends in the barber shop. These
are some of the facts revealed in a
study of university students actual
living expenditures, conducted by the
Northwestern National Life Insur-
ance company of Minneapolis.
Detailed records of their expendi-
lures were kept by 1862 students at
the University of Minnesota, in uni
form account books. The students
were well distributed in different de-
partments Of study and were about
evenly divided between those affili-
ated with fraternities or sororities,
and those not so affiliated. Aside
from tuition, the average male student
spent $59.75 per month in the 1884
Be school year, and the average wom-
an student spent $7797 per month,
the company's report shows. Men
students from out-of-town spent
$21.S7 per month for meals, $12.29
per month for clothes, and $3.50 per
month fol, room rent. Out-of-town
women students spent almost as
much for meals as the men-$19.7S
monthly-and considerably more
than the men for room rent-$12.5G
monthly. The average clothing ex-
penditure for all women students
participating in the budget record
was $3.50 per month, or almost dou-
BILE the expenditures of the men stu
dents for raiment.
Surprising repression of personal
vanity was exhibited in the women's
expenditures of only 76 cents per
month more than men students for
the item of barber and beauty
shops; the women's records show
$1.51 per month expended. while the
men averaged rs cents per month.

POWER, OFFICE,

GOAL IN RUSSIA

The ambition which under a differ.
ent system might find expression in
acquiring a personal fortune can find
an outlet in the Soviet Union only
through advancement in the service
of the omnipotent state.
Instead of the stimulus to accumu-
late private wealth, the Soviet system
offers to men who rise high in the
hierarchy of political and industrial
administrators the equally strong in
centive Of power. accompanied by a
standard of living which, though
modest by comparison with what
rich man of luxurious tastes can en-
joy in western Europe and America,
is still far above the bleak Soviet
average.

to think of the Soviet ruble as worth
about 2 cents Soviet high official or
captain Of industry" receives a mod
crate salary which may seem ridicu-
lousy small, but his position is some
thing like that Of an army officer In
many other countries.
The salary is, indeed, small, but
the perquisites Of Office provide nu-
merous compensations. An impor.
tant post In the Soviet Union carries
with it a comfortable apartment, the
use of a motor car, the right to eat
in good restaurant at a nominal
charge. admission to the best rest

for travel on the railroads and other
advantages.
These things are valuable In Rus

Scientists Say Gulf Stream
Warns Europe, and Not U. S.

One by one our cherished de-
lusions fall. 1t has long been taught
that the Gulf Stream governs the eli
mate of the southern and eastern
parts of the United States, but scien.
lists dispute this-rather warmly.
They say it is not the thing which
makes the Gulf and South Atlantic
states warm, but that it is the cause
of the comparative mildness of the
climate of northern Europe.
The Gulf Stream is a fascinating
subject. 1t was probably discovered
by Ponce de Leon. Its first practical
delineation came through that most
versatile of all Americans, Benjamin
Franklin, and was later defined in
concise and understandable scientific
terms by Capt. Matthew f. Maury.
the great "oceanographer." 1t was
his theory of the stream as heating
apparatus which first attracted world
attention. The fact is the stream is
heated up in the Gulf for its long
journey to the North. The Gulf par
italy governs the stream.
Beginning down in the Antarctic
region. an ocean current moves slow
IL up the South American coast, gath
ering heat as it goes. Somewhere
about the northeastern part of South
America another current comes in.
These merge their waters in the land
locked Gulf of Mexico. This current
sweeps semi-circular way through
the Gulf, runs only a few miles from
Florida and Georgia coasts and heads
toward the Arctic.

very welcome, but that the guest of

the grapevine telegraph had it that
he'd rushed off to the company offices
to talk over business details that didn't
quite suit him.
OF course everyone in Hollywood who
could get there went to New York for
the Baer-Louis fight, partly because
it was a big fight and partly because
so many Of them had known Max Baer

those present were Richard Barthel-
