Diving Star to Perform in City Pool Dutch Smith Here With Farid Simoika After Long Trip Abroad. BY BEATRICE BI ROAN Tlffirt Womin i r*i Editor A N unexprr*cri relief from dispo-sltion-disturbing thoughts of the weather was a chat with Harold • Dutch* Smith, Olympic fancy high diver champion, after lunch yesterday at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Dutch—it's natural to call him that, after a few minutes’ con-

versation. will give exhibitions with Farid Simoika. another Olympic diving star, today, tomorrow and the Fourth of July at the Broad Ripple pool. The two s w i m mer' have returned from a fifteen months’ tour of twen-ty-five conn-

tries in which they aroused an interest in the American style of diving. So impressed were German swimmers with the graceful, easy form of Dutch Smith in diving exhibitions there, that he has been invited to coach the German diving team for the 1936 Olympics to be held in Berlin. A rigid militaristic form contrasts unfavorably with the American grace. Smith and Simoika. the latter’s parents being prominent in diplomatic circles in Egypt, come from the Los Angeles Club, where thev have an Olvmpic team of their own; their divers won nine out of a possible twelve places in the last games at Los Angeles. Dutch Smith cut the wafer of the athletic club pool in a graceful dive: his muscles rippled under his brown skin as he glided through the water. “We did our best to teach the foreign swimmers anew method of diving: I think we will note quite a difference m the next games, for which Berlin is busy making preparations.” he said as he pushed his hair out of his eyes. On their tour the pair coached amateur divers and coaches, and found swimmers in Italy, Franre. Poland and Germany particularly enthusiastic. Governments Give Aid In foreign countries there are not athletic clubs but governments of Italy and Germany have built beautiful pools, which meet the requirements of swimming associations; few pools in America are of regulation size as required for Olympic competitions, Dutch Smith points out. “Every sport in foreign countries has its own federation and the officials may serve only four years; if they expect to accomplish anything, they have to get. down to business right now,” Dutch explained. “These federations are so successful in arousing interest that thpy attract more than enough persons to finance special exhibitions and tours. “InTokiothe two divers gave an exhibition before 27.0nn persons. One idea of their tour in America is to arouse more interest in swimming so stars mav tour the country to give exhibitions which would be of educational value. Tnree weeks ago Dutch and Simoika swam in Denver with Buster Crabb as one of their partners at the L. A. Club. Crabbe won the 40d-meter event in thp last Olympic. They will go to Kentucky and New,* York for special exhibition before sailing in November for England for another foreign tour. Dive as Team A feature of their local exhibition will be team diving which they originated at the last games. They expert to introduce it formally at the 1936 games and hope it will be a part of the 1940 games. Dutch and Simoika dive simultaneously and land in the water at the same time. In competition. Dutch pointed out. they would be judged as one. The pair are ineligible for Olympic competition because their foreign tour kept them on the road longer than amateur rules permit. “If we do any coaching after we finish this tcur. it will be only as a hobby.” Dutch explained. “You see. we’re both going to settle down to a profession.” Gives Far nr el I Part if Miss Emma Louise Mann entertained with a surprise farewell party in honor of Miss Grace Nesbit on Thursday.

They're inexpensive and come in colorful designs to match summer slip covers and curtains. You can dispense with the array of sofa pillows on the divan, too, leaving only one or two light-col-ored ones there. Pretentious looking window draperies are out of place in summer. Have them cleaned and stored away and then put up light, simple ones or. if you like, do without any overdrapes, using only glass curtains. Remo rive/ Scorch Lemon and salt, mixed, will help to remove the rust color from a garment which has been pressed with too hot an iron. Hold the material over steam while this mixture is on it.

Boy Pupils Rank Higli in Cooking Four in Ohio School Also Adept at Other House Work. BY GRETTA PALMER Tims Sppcil Writer NEW YORK. June 30. The homemaking arts, we have been given to understand, are in a pretty pickle in America today. The modern woman's fondness for kitchnettes and can openers, her habit of stacking the dinner dishes in the sink, have been subjected to

some rather scathing comment. But help, dear Pro Bono Publico, is in sight—and from an u n expected direction. Among 'the delegates to the American Home Economics Association convention were four high school boys, reputed to be the home economics sharks of their class at Bedford high

school, Bedford. O. “They have learned.” according to a newspaper, "how to sweep the kitchen floor, wash dishes and prepare soups, vegetables, breakfast foods, meats, potatoes and salads.” Each of them, in a word, should make some girl a wonderful husband. This is the sort of thing that ought to be encouraged. For that dislike of domesticity which is so common among girls today is founded on the fear that they may turn into so many dear little women, without a thought outside them homes, if they are not very careful. If they once get the reputation of being good hands at whipping up a pie, they think, life may soon turn into nothing but a monotonous round of mince, meringue and cocoanut. And then what will happen to their stern determination for a career? Fight Domesticity The modern woman is, perhaps, a little hysterical in her belief that, she can not take housekeeping or leave it alone. Her refusal to be domestic is a sign of rebellion against a wwld which seems all too eager to pack her back into the kitchen and keep her there. She reminds one a bit of the early suffragists who wore mannish suits as a symbol of their fitness for the vote. But the men of our nation, at least, have no such subconscious dread of tucking a gingham apron under their chins and seeing what the ice box contains. Already New York is overflowing with bachelors whose favorite hobby is the compiling of a stew. And the younger generation of boys, it seems, is following happily in uncle’s footsteps. Some May Be Stay-at-Homes These boys are learning that cooking can be fun. They are giving a free hand to the talents for homemaking which have made some members of their sex the world's great chefs and have turned others into those neatest of housekeepers—our mariners. And there is no reasonwhy some of them, if they find life as a homebody congenial, should not turn into stay-at-home husbands, whose w'ives are the family bread-winners. For the old-fashioned belief that there was something unmanly about a man’s doing work about the house has largely passed away. How' could it be othv'wise when the generation of boys growing up today have had such scanty support for the belief that girls are any great shakes at housekeeping? Women have raised a great hue and cry in the last few decades in their insistence on being admitted to every occupation open to men. Now' it is our turn to be generous. Young men, if you wish to come into the kitchen you are most welcome there. You may have full equality within the home.
