NICK'S PLAYBOY TAG WIPED OUT BY DISABILITY Longworth Was an Outstanding Presidential Candidate for 1932. Tbti ts <be eighth and last Installment •f “The Story of N'ichola* Longworth.” BY HERBERT LITTLE L’nlted Pres* Staff Corresoondent WASHINGTON, April 18.—Nicholas Longworth was a presidential possibility in 1928, but no more than that. In 1932, had not pneumonia carried him off nine days ago, he would have been far more. In the last short session of congress, Longworth rose to leadership and domination in several phases of the political and legislative Situation —phases where support would mean much in nominating and electing a President. He led the opposition which overwhelmed President Hoover on the World war veterans’ loan bill. He did much to avert the threatened special session by promising—and granting—votes demanded by the Norris-Borah-La Guardia group of Muscle Shoals, the Lame Duck amendment to abolish short sessions of congress, and the Wagner unemployment bills. Forced Way to Compromise And when Republicans from the industrial east turned a deaf ear to the pleas of the depressed western oil industry Longworth stepped In and forced the ways and means committee to hold hearings and report out a compromise proposal for a congressional investigation. These develpments were unlike those of the previous five years, in which Longworth echoed the administration. They pointed the man from Ohio toward a presidential nomination. He was only 61 and in good health. Longworth the statesman and political leader was overcoming Longworth the playboy in the public mind. He had largely overcome the handicaps of being the son-in-law of one Roosevelt and the husband of another. Alice Made Many Friends Nonetheless, there were many rumors of the enemies made by Alice Roosevelt Longworth’s social high-handedness among the wives of congressmen, and sometimes fear was expressed by Longworth’s friends that his support in the house might be cut away by these animosities. Longv.’orth’s friends worried far more about such trifles than he did. Once a protest was voiced to him about his sartorial elegance, particularly his spats. “Go over and look at La Follette,” he retorted. The Wisconsin senator was as elegant as Longworth. Mounted to High Place He mounted to a high place and died, perhaps on the threshold of the presidency, perhaps at the beginning of political oblivion. For the off-year Democratic sweep of last November’s election slashed his usual 30,000 or 40,000 majority to 3,000, and Democratic sentiment was reported increasing in his district, due to economic and other causes. He died at the home of a friend In Aiken, S. C., and was buried In Cincinnati to the grand music he had liked to pump from the full throats of a pipe organ, Handel, Mozart, Bach and those throbbing war-songs of the church, “Adeste Fideles’’ and “The Son of God Goes Forth to War.” The End.

should call it the “Robbins” shot, for he’s a master of it. The shooter is near mib No. 1, but on the inside of it. The problem is to knock out No. 1, and leave the shooter in position to take the remaining mib from the ring. By using reverse English on the shot, Robbins has shown that the player may knock out No. 1, and have his shooter roll backwards to approximately the position, of marble No. 2. It’s a tough shot—one of the hardest in Ringer—but can be accomplished through practice. And the mib player who does the most practicing is the one who is going to represent Indianapolis in the big national marble finals at Ocean City, N. J., the week of June 21. It’ll be a big week, and well worth practicing for! BLAST RIPS UP YACHT Engineer Loses Life as Explosion Tears Away Deck of Craft.

LOSS OF SLEEP FOUND DRAIN ON EFFICIENCY % Irritability and ’ ‘Jibing’ Common Effects, Science Clinic Finds. By Science Service NEW YORK, April 18.—If your wife’s temper suddenly becomes unreasonable, or if you greet her in the morning with a cantankerous outburst, it may be only because neither of you had sufficient sleep the night before. Members of the New York branch of the American Psychological Association meeting here today heard how lack of sleep upsets domestic tranquillity and of the effects it has on the body machinery. Your working efficiency may be kept up to normal on the day after a serious sleep loss, they learned, but in that case you will operate under a high degree of muscular tension. And if you persist in your late hours, this tonic muscular compensation which enables you to keep your output up to par will tend to lose its efficacy. These effects of loss of sleep were found by Dr. G. LaVerne Freeman of Yale university, through experiments he has been conducting in the psychological laboratory of the newly formed Institute of Human Relations. Dr. Freeman’s first experiments were conducted on himself and his wife. “One of the most interesting sidelights of the major experiment was the effect of the sleep losses upon general and social behavior," said Dr. Freeman. “Aberations in mode of living, health, attitude toward work and other individuals became characteristic occurrences after the first week of experimentation. “Both subjects began the work in unusually fine health and spirits. It was planned to continue the routine of living in the usual way. But this proved impossible. By the end of the second week both subjects were finding it increasingly difficult to be sociable. Contacts frequently were tinged with caustic jibes. And the cantankerous outbursts which occasionally occurred between the two subjects were often quite uncivil. The experiments showed that you can not “catch up” on sleep in a single night. Even a ten-hour period of sleep failed to make up for the effects of Torn- hours of sleep on the night before, and eight hours on the third night still left the person not entirely recovered. * Veterans to Meet By United Press 'NORTH MANCHESTER, Ind., April 18. —A reunion of the One hundred fifty-seventh regiment of Spanish-American war veterans will be held here May 30, and is expected to draw nearly 1,000 members of the regiment.
