CHICAGO, July 25.-Shut Out
clinched the 3-year -old champion
ship of the year today by galloping
to victory in the $88,250 Arlington
Classic under one Of the most mag
nificent rides ever delivered by
Jockey Eddie Arcaro.
The handsome son Of Equipoise,
owned by Mrs. Payne Whitney Of
New York, won by three quarters
Of q length to the cheers Of 5000
spectators. Valdina Orphan was
second, four lengths ahead of With
Regards. Kings Abbey was fourth
In field of nine.
The winner ran the mile and q
quarter in 2:012 q, equalling Omaha s
record for the stake and was only
one fifth of second off the track
record established by Discovery In
1895.
Shut Out. closing at odds of 3 to 2,
paid IS 90, $3.50 and $40. The place
price in Valdina Orphan, coupled
with Rounders as an entry. was $3.50
with $40 to show. With Regards
returned $500 to show.
Shut Out, winner of the Kentucky
Derby. the Belmont Stakes, the Blue
Grass Stakes and the Yankee
Handicap, had won $l48,747 In II
starts this year and wrapped
another $69. TOO around that bank
roll as a result of today's triumph.
Trailing the first four across the
finish line in the order named were
the Milky Way FARMS Dogpatch,
Valdina Farms Rounders, Col e. r.
Bradley's Bless Me, Mrs. E. H.
Augustus Trelawny and Hal Price
Headley's Anticlimax. The original
field of II was reduced by the with
drawal of Aletern, owned by A. G.
Ernst, Cleveland and Bolus, sur
prise nominee entered by Mrs. Emil
Denemark of Chicago
Valdina Orphans share of the
purse was $4,000 while With Re-
CARDS eafned 5000 and Kings
Abbey $4,000.
Shut Out was successful in elud-
ing the jipx that trailed Johnstown,
Bimelech and last year Whirlaway
in the procession of defeated cham
pions, in winning the classic, richest
3-year-old race of the year. It was
the first time since Granville won
in 1886 that a favorite had tri-
umphed.

Bull Merties leading of the fourth
was the only other hit OF rapid
Roberts delivery. Merino's double
was the only ball driven out OF the
infield.
The Sailors, however, got only four
hits of the leatherneck twirler, who
once toiled for Nashville. Two of
these were spanked out in the third,
singles by Jack Conway and Jim
Carlin, former Baltimore and Phils
performers. respectively. The sailors
had the sacks loaded with two out
in the first frame on an error, an
infleld hit and flelder's choice, but
Mel Preibisch, formerly of the AS,
ended the threat by rolling out to
third.
The game was umpired by Babe
Ruth, Larry MacPhail, president of
the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Gil
Stratton, jr., Broadway actor who
has umpiring ambitions.

Arcaro piloted Shut Out to VIC
tory with extraordinary Judgment
and skill.
With Regards went winging from
his No. ! post position, but he could
not draw clear until the field hit
the backstretch. Going into the club
house turn With Regards, on the
rail, had q slight lead over Valdina
Orphan, which In turn was almost
Tapped on Founders and Bless Me,
racing alongside.
Arcaro eased up Shut Out after
the start and at the club house turn
the champion had only Kings
Abbey beaten. Kings Abbey
stumbled slightly at the start and
was ninth. q
Down the back stretch it was
With Regards in front, with Valdina
Orphan at his neck and Bless Me in
third. Arcaro hogged the rail with
Shut Out. Slowly the son of Equi-
poise moved up. He passed one
horse, then another-always on the
rail.
With Regards set a hot pace
0:45h for the half, 1:10h for the
three-quarters. Shut Out kept
charging ahead with Valdina Or
phan and With Regards in front
OF him.
Arcaro abruptly took Shut Out OF
the rail at the top of the stretch
and sent him through q narrow
opening between Valdina Orphan
and With Regards.
Shut Out caught Valdina Orphan
near the final eighth pole, and with
Arcaro hand-riding for all he was
worth, the champion slowly drew
out to victory.
Jockey Arcaro smilingly declared
Shut Out was "all horse"
"The race never was in doubt at
any time" Eddie said. when we
turned into the stretch and called
upon Shut Out he took command
at once. He is really a great race

everything and the Indians had the
score tied before Bill zuber could
be rushed to the rescue.

For Better Health

The enlnently desirable goal or
physical fitness" for the Nation has
been largely discredited by its asso-
citation with the unwieldy and even
fantastic program attempted by the
Office of Civilian Defense. There IS,
of course. need for reasonable pro-
gram for stimulating attainment OF
physical fitness for the adult popu-
lation of the Nation.
But the place to begin with a
physical fitness program is in the
schools. That is where to find today
the soldiers and the civilians of to-
morrow. And that is where to pre-
vent, by intelligent direction and the
wise expenditure Of relatively
small amount of money. many Of the
physical defects which have been so
fagrantly exposed in the selection Of
young men for military service.
Regardless of what the rest of the
country may do. now is the time to
start a real physical fitness program
in the Washington public schools.
There exists now the nucleus Of
sound program. But it will remain
merely nucleus until it receives,
first, the vigorous backing of the
Board of Education and the admin
istrative officials of the schools, and,
second, the appropriation of suffi-
cient funds to make it a schoolWide
program, enlisting every pupil and
every teacher in its activities.
1t is difficult to say which of these
two prime necessities Is the more i'm
portant. The appropriation of money
would not do the trick, unless &C
companied by forceful emphasis by
the school officials, who are too much
inclined to regard physical educa-
ton as a time wasting fad. And
forceful emphasis would be wasted
without the necessary medical and
instruction personnel to supervise
the program.
A news article elsewhere in today S
Star explains the minimum require
ments for inauguration of a really
effective program of physical fitness
for the Washington public schools.
The cost is surprisingly low, COM
pared with the astronomical sums
being spent for other things which
are not comparable in long-range
Importance. The cost per year would
be less than 100000. But viewed as
an investment in healthy manhood
and womanhood, through early de-
lection and treatment of preventable
physical defects, such an expendi-
ture would yield returns of meal
culable value. The time to make
this investment is now.

trained, undisciplined and Of little or no
use. Gladstone, past go, bearing the
heavy responsibilities of state, took up
for intellectual recreation the study OF
Homeric Greek and became a master Of
it, Avocations as well as vocations are
very profitable. Endless cases could be
cited of men who found themselves sud-
denly startled by the limitations Of their
knowledge and who, by the use Of latent
talents out of firm resolve to better their
condition, became poets. artists, scholars
and scientists. We talked one day to q
man who through hard and exacting
service had made himself a high and
dominant place in the industrial world.
The conversation turned to the consid-
Grafton of intellectual and spiritual
things and at length he said, with a
touch OF sorrow and regret: Il must
say to you in all frankness that, have
been so busy throughout my long life
developing my business, my extensive
properties, that have lost all taste for
such things. am sorry and know I've
lost much, but 1t Is pretty late to attempt
to retrieve what have obviously lost"
He readily admitted the limitations Of
his life; he was earth -bound-a so-called
practical man." but there were parts
of his life that lay barren and sterile.
Today, under the high pressure OF
events, many of us are being made sober
and reflective We are coming to realize
that there are parts, important parts of
our lives, that have been tragically neg
lected. While we have sought to make
fit our bodies and some Of our faculties.
We have forgotten the cultivation of our
better natures, our souls. hence increas-
ing fear and apprehension as we view
unprecedented conditions. We find our
selves impaired in confidence and faith.
We are like those puzzled disciples who
in their anguish Of mind cried out: Lord,
to whom shall we go? Thou hast the
words Of eternal life"
Many of us are being compelled to re-
order our lives and to adapt their prac-
tices to new and strange conditions. We
have to; there is no choice. Will we,
under such conditions recover the prin-
ciples, the Christian ideals that, under
other circumstances. we have neglected or
lost? To change the analogy, some one
has said: There are stops in our organ
we have never drawn. that may contain
our divinest farmonies."

Mall Dormitories?

President Roosevelt's suggestion
that low-price dormitories be erected
for unmarried war workers who are
arriving in Washington by the thou
sands is understandable In the light
of recent surveys showing that cheap
have virtually disappeared from the
Washington area. AS the steady in
fux Of new Federal employees con-
tinues unabatedly, the room shortage
grows daily more acute. Seemingly
little progress is being made-or even
attempted-in reducing the number
of newcomers by such measures as
eliminating n-essential activities
and transferring employees from un-
necessary non-defense work to vital
war jobs.
But the advisability of placing such
barracklike structures on the Mall
certainly is open to question on sew
eral grounds. Aside from esthetic
considerations, which perhaps must
be subordinated in war time, the i'm
providence Of scrapping the million
dollar Mall layout unless as final
resort should be evident to every one.
Surely no person can contend seri-
ously that the Mall is the last re-
naming piece of land on which dor
mitories could be built. It is true
that other available sites involve
varying degrees of transportation
difficulties not encountered in CEN
trail location-but it might not be
amiss to point out that in event of
air raids a concentration of flimsy
living quarters on the Mall would be
dangerously close to such military
objectives as the War and Navy De-
partments and other emergency
Offices in the governmental area.

Newspaper Problem

When on March 8 the South Bend
Tribune celebrated a SEVENTEEN
birthday, F. A. Miller, its editor, took
advantage Of the occasion to remark
upon the responsibility which those
who cooperate to publish such a
journal OF news and opinion neces-
sarily must feel toward the commun-
ity they serve. With knowledge
drawn from his own experience, he
discussed the conditions which,
especially in recent years, have
rendered the business of making a
worthy newspaper increasingly COM
plex and difficult. Rising costs Of
materials and burdensome taxes
these are only two Of the factors
which he mentioned as parts of the
problem of practical journalistic
enterprise today.
But Mr.. Miller is not discouraged.
He traces the evolution Of the Tribune
from its foundation in 1872 to its
present high position as the principal
newspaper in Indiana outside the
metropolitan area of Indianapolis.
Starting as a weekly, it gained popu-
larity enough within ten months to
justify daily issuance. One rival was
absorbed in 1887, another in 1888. A
Sunday edition was established in
1922. What lies ahead, the editor
agrees, is uncertain" The people S
need for journals they can trust
admittedly is greater than ever. In
formation of value to the Govern
ment and to many public institu-
tions, to commerce and industry, to
culture, to spiritual stability and,
most notably, to the winning of the
war must be printed and circulated.
That means that the press has q
compelling dutJ under prevailing
circumstances.
Mr.. Miller is we'll within his right
as a publisher and as an editor when
he says: Progressive newspapers
naturally will do everything within
reason to maintain high standards. !"
1t was for that purpose that the
