Young Boil Hands
Go Portsmouth
Many Youths To Make Trip
For TrY-Out In League
Baseball

Portsmouth, O.-Boys from five
states are making plans to converge
on this Ohio city next Monday morn
ing as their first step toward career
in organized baseball. Scores of boys
have written in from Ohio, kentucky,
Indiana, West Virginia, and Pennsyl-
vania stating theiy planned to attend
the camp.
The Portsmouth club, which is oper-
ated by the St. Louis Cardinals, will
open the camp, along with three other
organized clubs, to seek young talent.
Young players who have had no
previous experience will have an OPP
portunity to display their ability be-
fore one of the finest scouting stats
assembled for try-out camp in this
territory.
Local baseball officials explained
that it isn't necessary for boy to
write in for permission to attend the
camp. The camp is open, without any
fee requirement, to all boys between
the ages of II and % who believe they
can play baseball and wish to try-out.
Boys who come to Portsmouth for
try-out are expected to furnish their
own transportation and their expenses
while here. Try-outs are usually COM
pleted in two or three days. Boys are
also expected to furnish their own
gloves, shoes and uniforms.
"Pop" Kelchner, director of the tai
ent search, has issued orders that
"rookies" seeking try-outs should re-
port at Riverside Park in Portsmouth
promptly at 8 a. m. next Monday
morning.

should not be used because of the ef-
feet upon the merit rating of the en-
ployer creating an increase in his
rate; or permit the basis of calcul-
alton upon which funds are collected
to be the factor in the determination
of benefit rate standard( when the
Legislature and the rule making pow
ers provided that benefit rates should
be based upon the full-time week?
"The thought or contention of some,
that the standard might increase
rates, does not make the provision of
the rules less binding. The section of
the statute and the rule providing for
the standard upon which benefits shall
be based, are separate and apart from
the merit rating provisions Of the
law.
"In dissenting it is my opinion that
the full-time week Of this claimant is
36 hours; that claimants average
weekly wage was $29.90, which,
raised to he next higher multiple of
80 cents, under regulation ii (3) of
the Bureau, thereby establishes her
average weekly wage as $4,000"
Labor is in accord with the dissent
ing opinion of Mr.. Roberts and con-
graduates him upon the able manner
in which he has upheld the clear
language and intent Of the Unemploy-
ment Compensation Law as we'll as
the spirit of the Act.

Concert Series Has Become
Valuable Part of Living

Turing THE PAST WEEK MEMBERS
of the Cooperative Concert association
AVE been busy re-enrolling old and seek
Elg new members to serve as sponsors Tor
ne appearance in Newark of outstanding
.oncert artists. Enthusiasts have worked
diligently to assure success.
Mindful of the high quality OF the many
srtists who have been brought to Newark
sl the past few years-artists that have
Excluded Charles Kullman, Helen Olhelm,
ss.)alies Franz, Bartlett and Robertson, Fred
-ric Jagel, Gaspar Cascade, Vronsky and
Sabin, Dilling and Hero, Wilbur Evans, and
Iuriel Kerr-the sponsors are this year at
empting to bring even greater talent to
Newark audiences.
The realization of their ambitions must
finally rest with a majority of Newarks
5itizens, for the success of this program, as
loes the success of all programs for cul-
,ural advancement, depends upon the inter-
sst and backing of the substantial leaders
If the community.
That the concert associations activities
n Newark are worthwhile can not be ques-
ioned. Those citizens who are given an
opportunity to hear and see the leading tai
ent of our day receive benefits that can not
De equalled. The children of the commun-
.ty receive impressions, perhaps inspira-
lions, that will remain vivid in their recol-
lections long after less worthy experiences
have faded; the adults find new opportun-
i+xy +o satisfy culturaI interests that have
become valuable part of living.

er age than our high school graduate. Hav-
ing disavowed child labor, and probably
rightly so, and prolonged the periods of
formal schooling, we have taken from this
system of training many of it's advantages.
Now, with production speeds and competi-
tion as they are, the employer has no place
in his plant for the unframed youngster.
That the schools are coming forward to
meet the need for training is evidenced by
the growing interest in industrial arts and
home economies and the complete depart
ments for their study in the Newark jun
ior and senior high schools. The realization
has come that many students will further
attending college; and thefurther realization
that, as expressed by educators, 'it takes
as much intelligence to be good machinist
as it does to be a good schoolteacher," is
prompting many youth to follow his nat
ural abilities rather than to seek employ
ment for which he is unsuited, but which
will secure greater social approval. The
failure to appreciate the arts of the crafts
man has sponsored much faulty thinking,
and its implications have given rise to ugly
relationships between employers and en-
ployees, and among community groups.
The Newark Junior Chamber of Com
merce is to be commended for lending their
support to the practical furtherance of the
program. Those who decry the decadence
of Greek mythology in our schools will no
doubt fail to appreciate the new movement;
but the ancient gods will be of little value
to the young graduate turned machinist-
and, anyway, for those who will profit eth
er economically or socially from their study,
the gods are always with u.s.

Realistic Attitudes
Aid Young Students
LAST SATURDAY MORNING SENIOR

LAST SATURDAY MORNING SENIOR
students of the Newark high school
were given the opportunity to take compre-
hensive examinations which may be OF vital
Importance to their later lives and activi-
ties. Sponsored by the Newark Junior
Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with
the Ohio Bureau of Unemployment and high
school authorities, the tests were designed
to learn the individual abilities and apti-
tudes of students, for the purpose of assist
ing them to find the fields in which their
activities can be best directed.
Supplementing tests at the high school,
an occupational outlook survey to determine
employment opportunities in this area for
1910 high school and college graduates is
being conducted by representatives of the
Newark Employment Security Center under
the direction of Manager John Gilbert. I'M
mediate job prospects are being classified
as to sex, steady demand, frequent requests,
and scattered requests and a forecast will
be made of employment opportunities.
The tests and survey will provide
workable basis for the young graduate.

fails to show standard justifying refer
ence to employers will be urged to take fur
ther training in their chosen fields after
graduation; efforts will be made to place
suitable students in employment; and eff
forts will also be made to redirect the mis-
guided student into field of activity
where his efforts will be more suited.
to his personality, abilities and work habits.
The tragedy of many young graduates
fruitless efforts to secure employment has
not been pleasant thing to behold during
the so-called depression years. Court rec
.ords show increasing cases of crime and de-
inquency among the young unemployed.
And attempts to find ways of increasing
employment opportunities have been baff
ling to sociologists and economists.
The old apprentice system has pretty
largely gone by the board. And, no doubt,
its reinstatement would not prove a solu-
ton to present problems. The apprentice
system was in effect when industry moved
at more leisurely pace and, because of the
attitudes of the day, employers were able
to indenture potential craftsmen at young

Cyclists Should Remember
They Are Not Pedestrians

WARM SPRING DAYS AHEAD WILL
witness many youngster pulling the
ever faithful "bike" from its refuge in the
garage, injecting it with shot of rejuve-
mating oil, and pedaling away to meet the
adventures of the season.
With the renewal of the bicycle season,
however, there comes warning, and cy
clists young and old should be on the look
out to protect themselves from danger on
the highways. AS it has assumed greater
popularity, bicycle riding has brought in
creasing tolls of injury and death to the
riders. Many do not seem to realize that
they need to exercise extra cautions and
are not protected by the same allowances
which the careful motorist observes for pc
destrians.
Robert Hamilton, secretary of the New
ark Automobile club, summed up the prob
lem in a statement issued to school child
ren. MANY bicycle drivers do not realize
that they are subject to the same traffic
rules as operators of automobiles" Mr.
Hamilton observed, "and that for their own
safety and the safety of pedestrians and
motorists using the highway, they must
obey motor traffic rules, including keeping
to the right, signaling turns, stopping for
stop signs and traffic lights, and giving
right-of-way to pedestrians at intersec-
tions."
1t is difficult for the boy or girl to fully
realize that they cease to be classed as Pc
destrians and become drivers of vehicle
when they mount their bicycles. Concert
ed efforts by parents and school groups to
impress this realization may materially re-
duce those tragic happenings which come
all too frequently to jar the happiness of
our communities.

Monroe Doctrine.
The Monroe Doctrine" Nc
Cutcheon said, rests in a large
measure on the principle Of self

Tended without a strong foreign
policy. Under present conditions
isolation is myth. To defend the
Panama Canal effectively and the
thousands Of miles of shoreline in
North and South America, We
must be able to control both
oceans, either by ourselves or in
conjunction with a friendly power.
The best defense of the Monroe
Doctrine is the rise and establish
ment of sound liberty loving demo-
cratic governments on both sides
OF the Atlantic. The Monroe Doc
trine comes into direct collision
with the doctrine that might
