Harvard Drops S-7 Game to Open College Base-
 ball Season

New York, Aphil 2-Until the ar- rival of Johnny Barris on the scene, few of the crowd of 400 baseball enthusiasts who turned out for the opening game of the 1936 cam paign on Old Rose Hill yesterday would have predicted Fordham victory over Harvard.
 A nice bit of relief pitching and a timelN double by the veteran turned the tide in favor of the Maroon and enabled Jack Coffey's charges to register an 8-7 triumph.
 Before Barris entered the game Harvard built 8 substantial lead at the expense of Tommy Bristow and routed Bristow in the second in Al Gruske. A four-run barrage routed Bristow in the second inn- ing and Gruske wa sforced to re- tire with 8 pulled leg muscle after he ha1 yielded two runs in the sixth.
 But in the seventh inning Ford ham put together five hits for as many runs, with long double to center field by Barris driving in Andy Paluas and Bobby Reinacher with the tieing and winning tallies. The rally came just in time, for Umpire Lou Ferry callethe game because of cold and darkness after Harvard's half of the eighth.
 Turns in Fine Performance
 Sharing honors with Barris in the Fordham triumph was Capt. Nor- mand (Babe) Young, who contrib uted two tremendous homers. His first drive, to left center, came in the fifth inning with the hases empty. His second went to right center and touched off the victor ious rally. The Ram captain added 8 single and was hit by pitched ball and had 8 perfect day at bat.
 The triumph was the secon din as many starts this season for Ford- ham. Both were credited to Barris. The game opened Harvards can1- paign.
 Bristow ran into difficulty in the second. Jim Sullivan drey a pass. Capt. Dick Mcguire singled, send ing Sullivan to third, but was thrown out trying to take an extra base. George Tittmann's double scored Sullivan and single by Ed Ingalls, the Crimson hurler, who went the route, drove in Tittmann Barman Gibbs single sent Ingalls home.
 Gruske relieved Bristow, but Tom Bilodeau's double tailed Gibbs with 8 fourth Harvard run.
 Singles Produce . Run
 Singles by Palau, Gruske ant Gene Coyle produced a Fordhan run in the third. A walk to Bill Ladooga and hits by Johnny Metos. kie and Gruske resulted in another tally in the fourth, and Young'' first homer closed the gap to 4-; in the fifth.
 Harvard got to Gruske in the sixth. Adzigian opened with sin gle and scored on Gruske's long triple to left. After Bilodeau sin gled to score Gibbs, Gruske was ordered to the showers. Barris could not prevent another tally from scoring. Successive bunts by Owen and Colwell dropped safely to fill the bases, and after Bilodeau was forced at the plate on Sullivan's tap to the box, Owen scored on an infield force play.
 Young's second homer started the Ram seventh. Joe Woitkoski and Ladfogra singled and a walk to Metoskie filled the bases. Palau promptly rdove two runs in with a single to center. Reinacher walked and then Barris came through with the blow that decided the issue.

Can / afford to buy a home? Is
it better to rent or buy? How much
can I pay?
There are two schools of thought
on owning property one says:
None but the wealthy can afford
to own his own home" The other
is expressed in the widespread own
Your Own Home campaigns, which
urge everyone to buy a house.
AS is usually the case with flat
dictims and slogans, neither is
wholly correct. Many who are in
the very small income class cannot
only afford to own their own homes
but are better off financially, So
cially. and spiritually for SO doing.
1t depends largely on the business
of the bread winner, the makeup
of the family, and the locale.
If the family income is derived
from steady job that seems perm
anent, if the family interests are
centered in the locality, and if the
neighbrohood is a reasonably stable
one, then the wise thing to do is
to buy.
On the other hand, if the income
is uncertain, the possibility of hav-

ing to move within a short time a
real one; if the family interests are
widespread ana the family is about
to disintegrate through the flight
of the young from the nest, or if
the neighborhood in which one lives
is in the process of flux from resi-
Dental into that nondeScript period
when business has infiltrated but
has not yet taken over, then own
ing a home is more likely to be a
liability than an, asset.
And now how much should we
pay? If we rent, we should not pay
over 20 per cent of our income; if
our family life is simple and our
expenditures, other than the usual
living expenses, are small, we might
stretch point and pay IS per cent.
And if we buy, we should not pay
more than sum equal to two and
one-half times our annual income.
On this basis under the long term
amortization plan instituted by the
house can be acquired by monthly
Federal Housing Administration the
payments over a period of years.
In most cases such payments are
less than the rent would be on a
house of similar accommodations.

The demand for accountancy-
trained men and women is in
creasing daily, to meet the re-
quirements of modern business.
This provides exceptional op-
portunities for earnest young
people who wish to establish
themselves in a profession that
offers a sound foundation for a
successful future.
Opportunities are available In
many fields. Students are pre-
pared for service in business and
government.
Every division of our system of
government-Federal, State and
municipal-needs the services OF
trained accountants. The avail
able supply of such men and
women still lags far behind.
Income tax-budgetary control,
governmental regulation of utili-
ties and other. business, study Of
the problems of commerce, cost
methods in Army, Navy and the
many departments Of Govern
ment, audit of accounts, control
Of countrywide activities - these
and many other governmental
functions increase the demand
for accountants.
Accountants in every business
community investigate and verify
financial facts for credit, organi-
zation, promotion, taxation: they
devise accounting and work pro-
cedureS for every type of business
organization and render an ad-
visory service of an invaluable
character. Legislatures of all
States have given definite recogni-
tion of these services by granting
professional certificates or degree
of Certified Public Accountant.
Accountancy trained men and
women win success as comptrol-
lerS, treasurers, auditors, cost and
value analysts, credit managers,
tax specialists, and business and
Governmental executives.
