Coach Ulen insists that his charge
is capable of faster time and expects
him to improve right up to the gun.

him with added confidence. 1t is 60

of the league have been called to

A number of new players are sign

mers may have appreciated the hos
pitality of Yale in staging the Ma
tional Collegiate A. A. champion
ships in the New Haven pool but
carrying off the major honors OF
the competition was mighty poor
way of showing that they did. Only
one representative of an eastern
college managed to win a title and
even he was not a member of Bob
Kipthuth's vaunted squad OF nata-
! ors. That honor went to Charlie
Eutter, Harvard's sensational soph-
omore, who scored in the 100-yard
free-style event to give the Grim
son its first national title.
Jack Medica, of the University
of Washington, again proved tire
less as he collected three champion
ships-the "220," the "440" and the
1,5OO-meter free-style. 1t was Med
ica's third consecutive slam and
served to emphasize the fact that
the husky Seattle youth appears to
be Uncle Sans best bet to stave off
the determined bid the Japanese
will make in Berlin to repeat the
Olympic victory they scored in
such sensational fashion four years
ago at Los Angeles.
Sat On SidelineS
Jack sat on the sidelines in Los
Angeles as an alternate member
of the relay team and did not
see active service. He set the 1886
olympic Games as his goal and has
worked steadily with that objective
in mind. Above all else he wants to
win the Olympic "440" and the
chances are that he will be success
full. His principal rival is likely to
be the captain of the Japanese
squad, Negami. Medica holds two
decisions over Negami, both scored
in Japan.
The youngster, Charlie Hutter,
who saved the East firm utter rout,
will bear bit at watching. He's a
fighter, and coming along mighty
fast. He is, perhaps, the most i'm
proved swimmer in the country in
the past year.
A year ago he was just another
swimmer on Coach Hal Ulen's fresh
man squad. There was nothing about
him to mark him as an outstanding
prospect. Except that he liked to
swim, possibly, and was a most will
ing and eager worker
Summer improvement
Before he left college for the
summer vacation Hutter had Ulen
draw up set of instructions where
by he could continue his training.
He followed his coach's advice faith
fully, more than doubling up on the
work lined up for him. His efforts
were quick to bear fruit for Ulen
could hardly believe his watch when
he clicked the youngster in early
fall trials.
More hours of special training in
the fall and winter months brought
Hutter along rapidly. The sopho-
more swimmer simply could not get

He had lot of leisure and spent a
lot of it in beer joints with bachelor
friends. He is extraordinarily timid
and it is hard for him to be sociable.
When he is drinking he isn't afraid
to talk and is a most agreeable per-
son. When he is sober he is cross
and fault finding.
His people were so fanatical about
religion that even the most limo
cent pleasures were denied him
when he was young. His mother is
head of the family. I have to be
careful not to try to get my own
way or he thinks I am trying to boss
him and he brags that no one can
make him do anything. Sort of a
give-away if you ask me. I don't
know what we would do if we quit
our business, which is the best we
ever had. His whole family thinks
we would be foolish to give it up,
but they don't realize he is growing
to hate me for asking him to hold
on. COUNTRY WIFE.

Entering the hospital with little
Laura, Dr. Luke was surprised to
see new figure seated at the head
of cot, assisting the weary Nurse
Kennedy. AS soon as a place had
been found for the constable S
Laura, Dr. Luke strobe to the bed

1t was Mary Mackenzie. AS he
knelt to administer treatment to
the suffering youngster, DR.. Luke
asked, in matter-of fact tone but
with iron in his voice: When did
you come in here?"
Mary was little overawed by
the stern voice. Just this morning"
she admitted. ''Nurse-nurse said
she needed a little help. I thought
would do what I could"
Did you ask your father?" pur-
sued the doctor relentlessly, never
looking at her as he adjusted the
hypodermic needle.
YES" breathed Mary, little de-
family.
The doctor rose abruptly. and
made sign to Father Bonel, who
understood only too well. He set
down the armload of stovewood he
was carrying, and began to don his
vestments.
Mary, seeing the movement, knew
what 1t meant. She began to cry
softly.

1t was Father Bonel. parish priest
who suggested that the little, bare.
church of Moosetown be converted
temporarily into an isolation hos
pital.
There, where bright chromos of
the saints looked down from above,
the tin lamps that marked the Sta
tons of the Gross along the sides
of the barren room, the children
tossed and fretted under the Wis
itation they could not understand
Some of the wooden pews had been

Wooden cots, as many as could be
hastily gathered, stood in rows
Several mattresses lay on the bare
floor. 1t had not even been posi-
BILE to get enough beds. The whole

was pitifully crowded with the i'm

AS cases began to appear in the

the first to show signs of the disease.
Leaving hurried instructions as to

he must have found great satisfac-
ton in telling others what TO do.
His leisure, too, must have been
precious to him. With his back
ground of repression ii is not sur
prising that he spent his free time
in beer joints.
Doubtless he is an agreeable and
amiable chap when not forced to
follow the patterns of his restricted
childhood, against which he appears
to be in revolt.
The fact that he is pleasant in
stead of unpleasant under the in
fluence of alcohol, when the reverse
so often is true, leads me to suspect
that he is, indeed, a square peg in
round hole.
IL he could get back into his old
trade, things might be easier for
you. In your place / would hesi-
tate to oppose him in his efforts
to find work which he likes, al
though all the arguments of COM
mon sense are on your side.
After all, the depression has
called for a multitude of readjust-
ments. He isn't the only one who
has been obliged to work at some
thing he didn't like to keep soul and
body together. Also, he isn't the
only one who has cracked up under
the strain. I have seen even worse
results come from an unwelcome
change of occupation. The person
who had a good preparation during
childhood FOR meeting disappoint-
ment when it comes, is as rare as he
is fortunate.
l do not feel wise enough or suf-
ficiently informed to advise you.
] do suggest that, irritating and
childish as your husband un-
doubtedly is, you might influence
him more If you could feel little
sympathy for his problem.
Instead of holding forth, as you
have every right to do, on the folly
of turning aside from good living
because the work is hard, why not
bewail his fate with him and hold
out some hope that under more ia
vorable economic conditions he may
be able to find less irksome employ
ment. BY clever management you
might delay the evil day when he
sells out, whereas unsympathetic
opposition only will harden his de-
termination, particularly if his
mothers voice is heard among the
noes"

bling. There were fewer accidents,
now that logging was suspended, but
an unusually severe winter brought
plenty of sickness, and there were
always-babies.
- The cold deepened, and a series
of billiards climaXed in one that
threatened to shut off Moosetown
from the outside world completely,
drifting the struggling roads to the
point where even DR.. Lukes sleigh
was an indispensable vehicle.
1t was then that diphtheria struck.
Beginning with single case in the
large family of La CroiX, the half
farmer, half -trapper whose cabin
stood isolated nine miles out in the
heavy brush it spread rapidly. Not
only all La CroiX's large brood came
down with it before the, doctors
precautions could have effect, but
then he learned with horror that
the La Croix children had attended
church supper to which half the
\ children of the community had
#come. The parents had thought it
was just Group, and neglected to
call the doctor until it was too late.
Three of the La Croix children died,
and the other two barely pulled
through.
But now from many isolated cab
ms, and from the fringes of Moose
town itself came red-faced frantic
men with steaming horses or even
dog -sleds, imploring DR.. Luke to
'come quick.

ted, or on the dog sledges of the
farmers or loggers, DR.. Luke went

Always he found there the same
terrible story. A young child, or sev-
eral of them, gasping on a tousled
bed, lips blue, the little body shaken
by agonizing coughs. The simple
parents of the backwoods stood
dumbly waiting for the doctor to
! come, helpless in the face of what
they did n, / understand Often the
doctor would find child in the
last stages of diphtheria in the same
bed with not-yet-affected brothers
and sisters.
