These young people work on an
an-around health program. Pos
ture, exercise, fresh air and sleep
are all essential. Besides these,
there is the very important point
of good nutrition. Growing boys
and girls must have the right
foods to have good growth.
The club member who has fed
and cared for a calf or a flock
of chickens does not need q nu-
triton book to understand that the
right food makes for . strong,
healthy body and an attractive
appearance. What he needs is
some guide to show him which
foods make up q good diet for Q
young, growing person.
mo one expects boys and girls of
this age to understand the whole

plains. Instead they learn about
the protective foods, the foods that
are most important to health and
growth
Early in the club year the boys
and girls check their own diets
against a list of the protective foods.
Then they can tell whether they
are getting all of the necessary foods
and learn where their diets need
improvement.
Here is the list of protective foods
emphasized in All Club work, and
suitable as guide to a good daily
diet for any growing boy or girl:
Milk-----11t pints to l quart
Butter to 3 servings
Fruits and vegetables 4 to 5 servings

A good balance Is:

Whole-grain bread or cereals
-----1 to 2 servings

individual notes in her appearance
symphony are good In themselves. If
not, a discord may spoil an other
wise melodic ensemble. You may,
for example, be superbly made up
and beautifully groomed, but mar
your appeal by using an inferior or
unsuitable perfume. Well-chosen
colors, good fabrics, flattering lines
may make a pleasant impression on
your male audience, but their effect
can be tangled by such minor de-
tails as eye shadow Of an unflatter-
ing hue-clips too ornate-a seam
out Of alignment.
A good conductor, on the platform
or before the dressing table. our
authority continues, gets effects with
minimum of effort. Too bizarre
accoutrements in costume and make
up, or the wearing OF something SIM
ply because no one else does, are
destructive of charm rather than
creative, for they show their pur-
pose too clearly and draw attention
to themselves rather than to you.
Simplicity of approach is a nom
musical as well as musical virtue,
as is achieving unity by subordinat-
ing various themes TO the perfec-
ton of a well-balanced whole. SO
don't use some outlandish green or
purplish lipstick shade-unless you
are the one in hundred with whose
type 1t would not clash and with
whose appearance in general such
shade would blend-in which case
it would not be the first thing an
onlooker would notice, but merely
a theme subdued to the compost
ton as a whole. Likewise, avoid an
overdisplay of jewelry. collections Of
sashes and bodices, shoes that would
look more in place on stage than
on the street.
In addition to these qualities of
simplicity, balance, unity and at
tention to detail that must be con-
sidered in orchestrating your ap-
pearance. according to Mrs. Nc
Arthur, is the all important one Of
visuaizing your proper interpreta-
tion. Before he even thinks OF
lifting q baton, conductor decides
what mood the work to be played is
intended to convey, and proceeds
accordingly. Similarly, there is a
certain kind of impression your ap-
pearance should make, depending
on what type you are, and your
plans for makeup and costume
depend on a proper realization of
your type. Say for example you
are the type whose personality veers
toward the dramatic-a type more
suggestive of Wagnerian lyric
surge than a Schubert serenade-
your approach to beauty problems
would be different from that of
more demure person. You would
wear suits, and prefer pajamas to
housecoats, go in for striking lines
and occasionally for rather extreme
flares, avoid an excess of miniature
ornamentation, wear bold colors,
vivid greens. purples or perhaps un-
relieved black. A touch of too-deep
red in rouge or nail polish would
be forgiven you, and on your fingers
you could wear rings in odd shapes
and with long. flashing stones.
If your type is opposite, with
petite, rounded figure, delicate
features, and so forth, your appear
ance symphony would be pitched in
another key entirely. In that case
you should wear soft fabrics,
gamin styles, tending toward
clothes with flowing lines and sug-

Evacuation Of j. ).
Women and Children
From War Zone Urqed
Three District Women
Arrange for Conference
At Stote Department

The State Department was urged
today to arrange mass evacuation
of American women and children
remaining in the European war zone
Mrs. Mary Wright Johnson, for
mer Democratic national committee
woman for the District and leader
In many women's organizations:
Mrs. Elizabeth L. Newberg, president
of the District Housekeepers' Alli-
ance, and Mrs. Charles Broy, wife
Of the United States consul at Brus-
sells. Belgium, presented the request
They argued that it would be ex-
tremely dangerous for the women
and children in the belligerent
countries and nearby neutral ma
tions to sail for the United States
singly or in small groups, but that
their safety could be assured by a
mass evacuation scheme.
Arrange for Conference.
The three women arranged to
talk the situation over with Assist
ant Secretary of State Breckin-
ridge Long early this afternoon.
They sought an appointment with
Secretary of State Hull, but were
told he was too busy to see them
until early next week.
We feel that our Government
has been very dilatory about tax
ing care of our women and chill
dren in the war zone" Mrs. Jonn-
son told reporters.
She said that many wives of
American foreign service officers
who happen to be in the United
States had been unable to secure
passports to return to their families
abroad or to arrange for bringing
their children to this country safely
In some cases." Mrs. johnson
added this separated mothers from
their children Such children
should be here safely in their moth
ers care; their husbands free to
devote their entire time to the
added burdens falling upon them
due to the war"
Three Children in Brussels. i.
Mrs. Broy said that her three chill
dren, aged 10, II and 13, respective
ly, remained in school in Brussels
because she felt that it would not be
safe for them to sail under present
conditions without the added pro-
lection that would be given by a
mass evacuation.
She added that she feared that
spring onslaughts would make con-
ditions in the danger zone simply
terrible" and was anxious to secure
her childrens safety before more
intensive fighting breaks out.
IF our President orders the evac-
uation of American women and
children from the danger zones, y
Mrs. johnson said Il firmly believe
that the warning nations would CO.
operate fully to get our women and
children home safely"
The State Department has assisted
most American citizens who wanted
to leave Europe to secure passage for
the return to this country, but ap-
parently has given little considera-
ton any mass evacuation scheme
because of the belief that ordinary
means of travel were sufficient. 1t
is considered safe for Americans to
trzvel on neutral vessels sailing from
Italy, with United States vessels
maintaining regular service to and
from that country.

last word for Saratoga: The climate is no better than 10000 others you can name and neither is the bath ing apparatus. It is simply com- munity which lives on gambling. Any efforts to bake 1t anything else are hypocritical.
 Now, as for honesty. Let us con- slider Maxmillian Adelbert Baer. He likes a dollar just as much as you do. He undoubtedly is as vain as you are and as rampant with con- ceit. He has baby and wife to support and to hear him tell it he is forced to support them in style in which neither of them ever was accustomed. But he knows where to draw the line. And it is no color line when he said he wouldn't fight Joe Louis.
 Two weeks after he fought Louis the first time, Max and I had din- ner together. He frankly admitted Louis never did knock him out. But he was honest enough to admit that the reason the knockout never came was that he quit before the final blow was delivered.
 Nobody is going to see me killed for measly $25 seat" Baer said as he rubbed bruise Louis had ir1- flicted on his cheek. "I mixed it with him once and he damn near tore my head off,"
 That is honesty. There is no req } son in the world that Baer, if he were dishonest, couldn't make at least $5o,oOo by taking on Louis again and just falling with the first punnch. He wouldn't even have to make it look good because Louis all ready has made so many fighters look bad. It would be that easy.

New York, July 29. CUP)-Do you like hypocrisy, folks? Come in and cut yourself a slice. Do you like honesty? Well, come in and cut yourself slice of that, too, because they are today's subjects.
 Let us take hypocrisy first, be- cause am more familiar with that topic. A man doesn't write sports for 10 years without being able to sight the smoke of hypocrisy before it even comes over the horizon.
 Racing started at Saratoga today and the gambling that goes with racing is the only reason on eartn for Saratoga's existence. The town is filled with well advertised and state supported baths which are said to have healing powers for such assorted ailments as rickets, lumabo, gout. sciatica, rheumatism, and the plain and fancy varieties of beri-beri. But don't let the state take you in for sucker. When you go to Saratoga you go to play the horses. For every bit of middle-aged blubber that floats in a bath there are 50 at the two-dollar window.
 To continue the subject of hypoc- risy let us consider the ban on roulette, Garfield, craps, slot ma- chimes and chuck-a-luck cages. New York State officials have decided and do not ever believe those who tell you they decided this way be- cause the cut was not big or satis-l factory enough-that gambling on horses isn't really gambling at all but merely a pleasant and healthy pastime from which the state col iects five cents of every dollar transaction.
 Expensive
 That five per cent cut of the play is my idea of why they are saying today-with emphasis for the first time in decades-that the lid is on at Saratoga. Every dollar bet away from the track costs the state of New York nickle. It stands to req son that a guy knocked on the head in a roulette casino at night isn't in shape financially to contribute to the association for the improvement of the breed of horses the next aft ernoon.
 This last word for hypocrisy, this

With that swift-rsien star, Lana Turner, in her most dramatic role to date. We Who Are Young" brings to the screen the vivid story of the struggles of a young mar ried couple for existence and the rush and competition of New York City. Rch in tensely dramatic situ- ations and in human emotions and unfolding a tender love story against the surge and thunder of a great metropolis, the new picture was filmed fom an original screen play by Dalton Trumbo, well-known novelist and scenarist. It presents a dramatic cross-section of the lives of common people in the worlds busiest city.
 In the new production Miss Tu- ner emerges from the glamour-type of role to enact the dramatic char acterization of an accounting ma- chine operator who marries against the rules of her firm and faces pow erty with he husband until a trick of fate leads them to better things.

FIGURES SHOW
 DIFFERENCE IN. MAJOR LEAGUES.
American Is Hit and Rum Loop, National ''Pitch
 and Field"
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, July 29.-(UP)-Every Sunday the baseball line scores containing the batteries, hits, runs and errors tell the story of the dif- ference between the two major leagues.
 Here's yesterdays composite line score on the two leagues:
 League G. Pitchers R. H. E. American 2 37 81 157 IS National 2 g ST 11s IA
 The National League is still the pitchers league and the American the hitter's league. Eight pitchers went the route in Sundays Nation al League games while only three American Leaguers were able to go the distance.
 Breaking down the figures we find the American League teams aver aging s 11-14 runs per game to the National Leagues 1-14 and the junior circuit getting Il 1-7 hits per game to the senior loops 8 3-7 hits.
 It's pitch and field in the Ma tional and hit and run in the Amer 'ican.
 From time to time the charge is heard that the American League ball is purposely manufactured lievlier than the National Leagues sphere. There seems 70 be no basis for this kind of talk.
 Both leaders slipped in the heavy firing on the Sabbath. Buck New som, returning to the wars after being laid up 12 days with a brok- en thumb stumbled h the quest for his 14th straight victory. Going into the 11th with the score tied, 5-5, Newsom was rapped for four runs by the Athletics, who went on to a 9-5 triumph. It was Newsom'S first loss since opening day. Hank Greenberg hit homer No. 19.
 Walters Walloped
 After beating the Phillis, 7-3, in the opener, the Reds failed in the second game behind Bucky Walters and lost, Al. Because of the Dodg- ers' double win over the Cardinals, 80 and 7-4, the Reds lead was re- duced to eight games. Jim Turner won his sixth straight in the Reds opener. Walters was rapped for three runs in the first inning of the nightcap and charged with his fifth defeat.
 Whit Wyatt twirled 3-hitter in stopping the Cards 4-game winning streak and the Dodgers 6-game losing skein. Freddy Fitzsimmons celebrated his 39th birthday by winning his 10th victory in the nightcap.
 Good pitching by Dick Lanahan, who allowed eight hits, and Max Butcher, who yielded only four, en- abled the Pirates to trim the Bees twice, 5-2 and 7-3, and move into fifth place as the Cards dropped to sixth.
 Harry Gumbert pitched the Giants to a 8-4 victory over the Cubs, allowing eight hits, two of them were homers, one by Stan Hack with two on and ope by Bill Nicholson-his sixteenth-with the sacks empty. Danning and Demaree homered for the Giants.
 Even though they split a twin bill wish Washington, the Indians picked up half a game OH the Tigers and reduced the gap separating the tribe from Detroit to game and a half. Al Milnar scored his 14th victory in winning the opener, 6-3, but rookie Sid !. Hudson pitched Washington to a 9-1 win in the af- terpiece. Al Smith failed to last the first frame.
