CONTEST WENT TWELVE IN
NINGS; DOUBLE BY FRED
DIE cARBoNELL WON TILT
FOR PHARMACY BOYS

Gardner's Pill Rollers won their
fifth straight game so far this
year from Sanitary Department
at the Navy Field yesterday aft
ernoon.
However, the Drug Store Cow
boys experienced the toughest bat
tie of the five contests. The fracas
yesterday went IL innings before
decision was reached.
Freddie CarbonelPs double to
left, scoring Mayg and ManolO
Acevedo, cinched the game for
the Pharmacy players.
The victors started out in good
shape, scoring two runs in the
initial frame and adding three
more in the sixth canto. Mean
while, the best the losers could do
was score a lone tally.
However, the Healthers woke
up in the seventh stanza, put over
two markers and took the lead in
the eighth when three Sanitary
players crossed the plate.
In their half of the ninth in
ming, Gardeners Pill Rollers knot
ted the count and went on to vic
tory in the twelfth frame
In that canto, the Healthers had
a chance to win the game but
lost the opportunity. With the
bases full and one out, Gabriel hit
to the pitcher, who threw home to
catch the runner coming from
third and the backstop tossed the
ball to the first baseman to double
Gabriel for the third out.
Then came the end of the ball
game. Mayg hit to Hale at third,
who fumbled the ball. M. Acevedo
hit to the pitcher and all hands
are safe. A. Acevedo hit to short
and the bases are full, as Garcia
threw too late to first. Freddie
Carbone,l then smacked one over
the left fielder's head and Mayg
and Manolo scored.
Caraballo, with two doubles
and single in five times up, was
the leader at bat. P. Carbonell
hit two safely in four tries.
Acevedo handed nine chances
in the field, making one error.
Hale handled ten chances with one
miscue.
Salinero pitched the full game
for the victors, striking out IL
batters. H. Gates hurled seven
innings for the losers, tanning
five and walking six, allowing six
hits. Malgrat finished the con-
test, giving up but three safeties,

AMES, Ia, Jan. 25.-Dr.
Charles E. Friley, president

lieves college students today
are more serious-minded than

"TEACUP" HERE MARCH
The Theater Guild will send
storm In a Teacup" to Washing
ton the week of March l as the
final attraction of the American
Theater Society season.
Storm In a Teacup" has been
adapted by James Bride from
German play by Bruno Frank.
The production ran two full sea-
sons in London and has been de-
layed on the Guild schedule by
casting difficulties.
The Theater Guild desired Roger
Livesey for the same role that he
played in the London production.
1t happened that Actor Livesey
had just closed in Gilbert Miller'S
play, Country Wife" and under
Actors Equity ruling the English
Thespian would not be eligible for
another American play for at least
six months. Equity refused to
waive the rule.
The Guild took an appeal to
Equity's council and pleaded that
without Roger Livesey it would be
impossible to do the play this sea-
son. The actor agreed that if he
we're permitted to take this assign
ment he would not appear in an
other American play for at least
II months. Equity reversed the
original ruling and gave its con-
sent.
Storm In a Teacup" goes into
rehearsal next Monday with a cast

KELLEYGRAMS

Max Gordon will bring back
Pride and Prejudice" to the Ma
tional Theater, opening here with
a matinee performance on Monday,
February %. The top price will be
So with matinees at $1.50 for best
seats.
Through his courier, Eddie
Sobol, Producer Gordon explains
that he reduces the Nationals
scale to So because of a desire to
let seminaries, colleges and schools
see the Jane Austen play at the
lowest scale possible, as drama
that appeals to lovers Of the classic
in literature.
Mr.. Gordon was deeply impressed
last season by theater survey
which showed that only one high
school student in 80 in New York
city had ever seen a legitimate
play. Most of the youngsters were
regular movie-goers, but found the
price of footlight drama beyond
the resources of scholastic pocket
books. A popular priced scale,
where possible, is the Max Gordon
answer to high prices.
Movie-goers will be interested in
"Pride and Prejudice" which
opened here last season, because it
has been acquired by Metro-Gold-
wyn-Mayer. and that company's
screen production Of the play will
have Norma Shearer in its lead
role.

OUT OF STEP

A faYorite pastime of some Am erican prophets is to point ag other countries as an example of pro- gressiYe economic thinking. Implied h their remarks is a denunciatiOn oI the past ln America and a warn ing to this country to do an about Iace. The past, they tell us, is dead. Look at these other countries for l hInt of what the future holds.
 In substance this means that the United States is out of step with England, France, Germany ,opaln, Italy, Russia, China, and the FiJi Islands. In a word it means that anything peculiar to the United states in the dead past such as the worlds highest standard of living an automobile to every four fam- lilies, three radios to every fouI tamilies-anything so peculiar tC the American past as this is to De condemned.
 There can be no doubt that these prophets are absolutely right on one point. Politically, socially, and il the field of economics, the United States has been out of step with the rest of the world, all right.
 Whats more, the United States has been out of step with the rest ot the world for l50 years. We must be something apart, because we have fed upon a brand of fodder not grown beyond our borders.

DEFENDING THE EDITOR

The fellows who edit the metro politan dailies, who wear the green eyeshades, who work tensed in the jittery atmosphere of dangling tele- phones, clacking typewriters and whirring, rumbling presses, seem to get a good deal of relaxation in some of the efforts of country jour nalists.
 For instance, Editor and Pub fisher this week quotes the "Philo Budget" a little paper in a small country town in the central part of Illinois:
 Grandma Smith is very low as we go to press. If she dies, she will be buried Sunday"
 That paragraph may read to a city man like the editor was listen ing to a meadow lark through an open window and inhaling the aro- ma of new mOwn hay when it was written, but the chances are that he had the word of a right good doctor and half a dozen relatives that the sands in grandma's hour glass had about trickled through. Chances are, they had the funeral Sunday. Any hick editor would a lot rather say that everybody was expecting grandma to be better next day.-Mound City (Ill.) News Independent.

HONEST WORK

Many people are so busy trying to devise ideal systems Of social organization that they miss the ob- vious steps ot honest work for the days wage, and honest pay for the days WorK, of honest goods repre- sented in advertising and sold LOT an honest prIce. They are 50 con Cerned with the reduction of arma- ments or the refusal to take the oath of allegiance as a gesture against war that they will not take the trouble to study the actual problems Of materials and markets, of economic interdependence of the relation of tariffs and trade agree ments to the causes of war. Young men will even pledge themselves never to bear arms at their country s call, and then go out and act as pIckets in a laDOr war in which tueIr neighbors are being killed.
 It is time to concern ourselves with dreams oI UtOpla when we nave done our honest pest to under stand the complex problems of an industrial civilization, with a view to discovering hidden Centers of self lsnness and greed and bringing them to light Wnere they may be eumlnat- ed. There is nothing reeondite aOout honesty and decency. W hen we have done our absolute best in these d1- rectIons it will be time to discuss the ultimate organization ot society. We cannot scale the mountain at d leap, but the next step we, everyone, have power to take. - Minneapolis Journal.
