Dam to Erase Historic

Within two years, the new Youghi-

Pennsylvania-West Virginia project
to check future flood waters. 1t will

where Washington forded the Yough-
iogheny river on his way to the In
dian wars, only a mud-hole at the
bottom Of the reservoir.
In preparation for the inundation,
the towns only school and church
will be razed, along with several
other old landmarks, dating from as
far back as 1918, when the town was
laid out and named Smythfeld after
Paul Smyth, one Of its founders.

City Jobs Fail in
Lure for Farm Boys
Scientific Methods Dignity
Farming as Profession.

FORT ATKINSON, WIS.-The lure
of city jobs is losing its power stead
lily among farm youth, believes Nor
man Ackley, vocational agriculture
instructor.
Ackley bases his opinion on %
years experience with the Wiscon-
sin state fair and on his work at the
high school here. He declares the
spread of vocational agriculture
course is Identifying farming as a
profession in the estimation of
thousands of rural youths who are
learning ways to win security from
the soil.
A future industrial boom will at
tract far fewer farm boys than did
previous prosperity eras, Ackley be-
lieves.
You'll not catch them going into
factories to stand there hour after
hour stepping on treadle," he said.
1T isn't that they look down on fac
tory work; it is that they have
learned to look up to farm work"
Ackley said a vast change has
come over farm youth in the last
generation.
when / started teaching farming
there were just five schools in the
state doing it," he recalled. Nov
there are 203."
while going to school, the stu
dent carries out projects at his farm
home. He raises hogs, poultry or
calves. He learns to treat seed. He
tests his fathers cattle in the school
laboratory.
"All that has created the feeling
among these students that farming
is a profession. They learn that
farming is not haphazard, that it re-
quires as much intelligence as bank
ing"
The "aggie" student, Ackley said,
becomes community-conscious and
is stimulated by the activities of
others.
He joins the Future Farmers,
national organization of high school
vocational agriculture students. He
mingles with other boys, swaps
ideas, is goaded by what other lads
are achieving. He gets broader
vision of community cooperation"

Indian Strength

The Yankees main challenge
should come from Cleveland-provid-
ing Bob Teller isn't requested to join
Uncle Sans fighting forces. The In
dams new manager, Roger Peckin-
paugh, is one of the smartest in the
business. He had to be smart to
straighten the club out after last
years unpleasant, and very silly,
revolt against former manager Witt.
Because of this insurrection, the In
dams tossed away the American
league pennant. They shouldn't
make the same mistake twice in a
rowland you can pronounce row"
either way and still be right. Never
theless, they fumbled the golden OPP
portunity which was theirs in 1910.
The Chicago White Sox will be the
same hustling ball club It was last
year, making life miserable for the
higher-ups. Skeeter Dickey, Bills
younger brother, is likely to be a big
help behind the plate.
Most Improved
The st. Louis Browns were the
most improved club in the American
league last season and they are like
ly to continue to improve. How
much they improve will depend
strictly on their pitching. While they
are far from a classy ball club. a
season Of steady pitching might see
them make strong bid for a first
division berth. While they wound
up in sixth place last year with a
percentage of .435, it was their high
est since 1884.
All In all, the Yankees and the
Indians should be the two teams to
beat, although neither will have q
walkaway. There are too many
question marks for every team to
consider. Veterans are fading,
younger men are subject to the draft
the offs" are more numerous than
ever.
Perhaps the most certain thing Of
all is that the pennant will not 60
to the Browns, the Athletics or the
Senators. Their real need 10 good
material and that's hard to get no
matter how much money is forth
coming.
