A unique experiment in educa- tion for the job is being conduct ed by twenty-four girls, high school graduates of New London, and Mrs. Chase Going Woodhouse Professor of Economics, at Con- necticut College.
 The girls are engaged on a pro- ject in New London, the objective of which is to fit them for their first jobs in business by teaching them skills and good work habits and attitudes. The funds neces- sary to carry on the project are raised by Mrs. Woodhouse, and the girls, all eligible for this form of assistance, are paid by the National Youth Administration.
 This IVA project, the idea for which originated with Mrs. Wood- house, through her interest in the employment problems of young women, is the only one of its kind in the country.
 Prior to the starting of this real job training program for the young girls, Mrs. Woodhouse spon- sored, and for four years gave her time without compensation to @ WPA project in New London for white collar women.
 This project was started after Mrs. Woodhouse had expressed dismay over the fact that there were no work projects for white collar women in eastern Connec- ticut, although there were many business women out of work ana on relief. Under the EZRA, and later under the WPA, for four years sch organized and trained and was the volunteer supervisor of work projects for women from New London and the surrounding towns.
 Starting out in one room at Connecticut College, the project grew to one covering AZ women, ranging from girls just out of high school, to women in their sixties. There was no money available fol rent for work quarters, so when the project outgrew the available space in the college, Mrs. Wood house turned her living room into a work shop. There for two years from ten to twelve women worked until rooms became available in a public building.

Jehovah God is in no manner re- sponsible for the wickedness and suf- fering that are in the earth. He cannot be properly charged with any of the suffering now afflicting hu- mankind, wickedness and suffering do not come about even by the con- sent of the Most High. The plain facts as revealed by the word of God are these: God whose name is Jehovah, created everything good and perfect, as 1t is written, at Deuteronomy 32:4, that all His works are perfect. Study starts at 4 o'clock. Jehovah's Witnesses, l6S East Main street, Garden building.

PARKING, OLD STYLE
BY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

How did they park in Grandma's day?
 They just drew up to the curb, Secured old Fan to the hitching post
 Where no one was likely to disturb. No signs said: No parking here,
 By order of the police dept. Brands were done in the general store
 While in and out of buggy they swept There were no gas buggies
 Back in grandmas time, No honking of horns or grinding of gears, All was quiet and sublime. They didn't worry about finding spot
 Where they could maneuver in, With their high powered special models
 Or perhaps just hunk of tin. How did they park in Grandma's days?
 Oh, it easy all get out Room enough for brougham and surrey
 No cops to order one about, No worrying about no curb parking
 With blackboard and gentle nag, Not a care worry at all,
 No one ever heard of a tag.

BROOKLYN June 22.-On the
baseball field they're sane enough to
be leading the National League, but
the Brooklyn Dodgers haven't got
over their daffy ways.
They still were out of communi-
cation today with their No pitcher,
Luke CHot Potato) Hamlin and pos
sibly to tantalize him they an
nounced last night that they had
claimed Pitcher Lou Fette of the
Boston Bees on waiver.
Fette hasn't won game this year
and has lost five, so he's far whoop
from Hamlin who has won five and
lost three.
But the acquisition of Fette
brought the club one over the player
limit of 25 and they will have to
crop somebody before Fette dons a
uniform. 1t could be Hamlin, a 90
game winner last year.
MacPhail criticized Hamlin for
throwing one of his well-known
home run balls in Tuesdays game
with the st. Louis Cardinals and
Wednesday night Hamlin did not
show up for the ball game.
Secretary John Mcdonald said
Hamlin had not communicated with
the club, but that he still was in the
city as far as the club knew.

C. A. A. officials, however, finally
ruled it would stand as an American
standard. Maj. John L. Griffith,
meet referee and Big Ten athletics
commissioner, said it would not be
recognized as an indoor mark. The
indoor record of SIS feet inch, was
set by Blozis.
The half mile also promised
plenty of action, with Paul Moore
of Stanford, Campbell Kane of In
diana, Ed Buxton of Wisconsin and
Ed Burrowes of Princeton. expected
to fight it out. Fred Wolcott of
Rice, defending champion in the 120
highs and 220-yard low hurdles
events, apparently was ready to win
his specialities for a third straight
year, although it appeared certain
he'll be pressed all the way by his
long time rival, Boyce Gatewood Of
Texas.
Stanford had eight places in the
finals as against seven for Southern
California. which has won five
straight team championships and
has ranked as a strong favorite to
make it six in row.

Capture 8 Of 9
Games Since
Big b|owup
Boost Lead in Beating
Red Sox for Sixth
Straight Victory
By JUDSON BAILEY.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

The Cleveland Indians are like
rowdy family that quarrels con-
tinually in its own circle but gangs
up unanimously against every out
slider.
Everybody in baseball expected
the Tribe would come apart after
the boys had their fuss with Man.
ager Ossie Witt. But they still are
on the American League warpath
today with six consecutive scalpings
to their credit, including IA prize
from the Boston Red Sox in the first
game of their crucial series yester-
day. This was the Indians eighth
triumph in nine games since the big
blowup, and that kind of a record
can't be called cracking.
The Indians won under pressure
from the Red Sox. The Seekers
slugged Lefty Milnar for 10 hits,
one Of them home run in the third
inning by Ted Williams with two
on and another Jimmie Foxx's 18th
home run in the eighth.
Bells Homer Decisive.
But Cleveland, held to eight hits
by Jack Wilson, kept coming and in
the last of the eighth Roy (BeaW
Bell hit a three-run homer that
proved the margin of victory.
The world champion New York
Yankees stopped their five-game
skid to wallop the Detroit Tigers,
12-7. The Tigers, who muffed
chance to take the American League
lead Thursday, could have advanced
into second place yesterday. But
four pitchers could not silence the
pentup Bronx bombers. Charley
Keller hit home run and three
singles and Red Rolfe hit a double
and four singles.
The Philadelphia Athletics worked
out on the Chicago White Sox even
more efficiently, 12-1. Lee Ross
pitched a four-hitter at the Sox
and Bob johnson led an 11-hit at
tack with his 18th and 18th home
runs.
In the National League the Brook
lyn Dodgers strengthened their hold
on first place by stopping the Pitts
burgh Pirates, 1913, while the New
York Giants upended the Cincinnati
Reds, 4-3, to take second place.
Slugfest at Brooklyn.
The Brooklyn game was a slug
ging session with 26 hits and seven
pitchers, out of which Fred Fitz-
simmons emerged with his sixth
victory against one defeat.
New York's triumph halted per-
sonal six-game victory march by
Paul Derringer. The big control
ball specialist gave up just two hits
in the first five innings and the
Reds took 80 lead But the
Giants punched four of their seven
hits to tie the score in the sixth
and Bill Jurges singled the winning
run across in the eighth. Cincin-
natl collected only six hits off Harry
Gumbert.
Chuck Klein's bat again played a
principal part as the Philadelphia
Phillies checked the Chicago Cubs,
6-5. Klein doubled two of the runs
across. The Phils were outhit, 1913,
but the Cubs ran into their old
trouble Of leaving men on base.
