STRATEGY IS USED TO CHECK ATHLETES AND DEVELOP POWERS

That bnilding up men presents Just as big an opportunity to the manager in business as it doese to the athletic coach has been the experience of some top-notch business executives. And sometimes the business executive can

take a leaf from tne athletic coach's book. A. R. Brunker, president of the Liquid Carbonic company, who makes a specialty of developing high grade salesmen, makes this statement. And he goes on to say: "Sometimes it has been possible, by tinkering with temperamental defects, to turn good salesmen into stars. "I got my first big lesson in this kind of tinkering from Mike Murphy, who was track coach at the University of Pennsylvania the first year I was there, and later at Yale. The particular two incidents that gave me my lesson occurred in 1902 at Mott

j Haven, N. Y., where the intercollegiate I track meets used to be held. Mike

was with Yale at that time. "It was the year of the contest between Yale and Harvard for permanent possession of the cup. Each had

won it four years and under the rules

LETTISH VETS RETURN; FIND FOOD SCARCE

(By Associated Press) RIGA, Latvia. Dec. 13. Lettish troops which fought with the Czechoslovaks in Siberia have recently returned to Riga from Vladivostok and have been received with great patriotic demonstration. Under the treaty with Moscow about 300,000 Letts are to be released from Bolshevik territory and returned to their homeland. This influx of population is increasing the problems of the little country. Glad as Latvia is to see its sons return, their presence places a heavier burden on the food supply, and there is little employment to offer them. The skilled workmen of Lettish blood who have been working in soviet factories refuse to remain in Russia because of enforced labor and inadequate food. It is estimated by the Lettish foreign office that more than 300,000 Lettish citizens are in America. They are chiefly in the manufacturing centers, such as Detroit, Chicago, Pittsburgh and the New England industrial towns, especially the shoe towns.

PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU. WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 13. Women's organizations throughout Indiana as well as thousands of individuals, including quite a few men, bave been bombarding Indiana members of congress with letters and telegrams ever since congress reconvened last week urging their support of the Sheppard-Towner bill for the protection of maternity and infancy. Included among those who are taking an active interest in this measure are many Wayne county. Indiana women and women's organizations. Practically all the important national women's organizations are behind the Sheppard-Towner bill and they are maintaining in Washington a particularly active force of workers who are making it quite plain to members of congress that the American women are demanding adequate protection for American mothers and American babies. One of the leaders in the movement is Miss Jeanette Rankin, the first woman elected to congress. Provides for Instruction. The Sheppard-Toner bill provides for instruction in the hygiene of maternity and infancy and the household arts essential to the well-being of mother and child; it provides for consultation centers and medical and nursing care for mothers and their babies, at home or at a hospital. The act would be administered by a federal board on which the United States Bureau of Education and the United States Public Health Service would be represented. The executive officer of the board would be the chief of the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor. The bill proposes a federal appropriation of $2,000,000 the first year, this sum to be annually increased until it reaches $4,000,000 annually. The federal appropriation would be apportioned among the various states in the proportion which their population bears to the total population of the United States, providing each state appropriates a like sum Proposed Appropriation. In addition the bill proposes to appropriate $4S0,O00 annually to be divided equally among the states without guarantee of a like sum. The bill voud permit each state to carry out its own approved plan for the protection of maternity and infancy without federal interference, and the act does not propose that the federal government shall embark upon a medical or surgical campaign, but rather to stimulate and guide and make accessible instruction and care to mothers and care of infants, and without making such service compulsory. A report an Indiana congressman has received from the Children's Bureau shows that the United States has been recklessly wasting the lives of American mothers and babies. The report shows that it is safer to be a mother in fourteen important forelcm countries than in the United States, and that babies have a better chance in seven foreign countries than in the United States. Investigation Results. Investigations of the Children's Bureau in rural districts in six states have revealed: High maternal mortality rates above

.the average for the United States as

a whole. The fact that eighty per cent of the mothers had received no advice or trained care during pregnancy and confinement. Frequent entire lack of doctors, hospitals and nurses.

An almost prohibitive cost for pro-1

uding adequate care at confinement in scattered and isolated rural districts. Of more than 22,000 city babies studied by the Children's Bareau and representing every type of home in seven cities, more than three-fifths were born into families where the fathers' earnings were below the amount which is a minimum for providing bare necessities of existence. Only one in 10 was in a family where the fathers' earnings reached a fair minimum for comfort. Proponents of the Sheppard-Towner bill argue that without such legislation such parents are in no position effectively to safeguard their children. Statistics f-how that in 1918 there

"The contest was close all the way through, and toward the end it became plain that one of the Yale sprinters had to win second place in the 220yard dash to save the curt for Yale. A little while before, he had won second place in another race by what several of us who had been standing near the tape thought was a raw decision. We thought a Harvard man had beaten him a foot. "In spite of that close call, the Yale man came in all puffed up. He wouldn't take a rubdown; said he didn't need it to beat that bunch. I'll never forget how Mike looked at him, turned a little white, and then let fly at him with all the force of his extraordinary vocabularly. He called him more kinds of unpleasant things than you would have supposed there were in the world. I never saw a man called so completely. Mike sent him out

Gambling is Prevalent On Spanish Handball MADRID, Dec. 13. The exechations uttered by the indignant baseball fan

:gainst the unlucky or awkward play9 , er in America are as gentle murmurs j compared with the epithets hurled by

the occupants of the gallery at the contestants in the game of handball in the playgrounds of Madrid. "Rogue!" "Thief!" "Convict!" "Idiot!" are some of the mild terms with which the players are greated when they miss a ball or send it back in an easy position for the opponent to play it The reason for this excitement la the prevalent betting, in which the women spectators participate as much as the men, Porfessional bookmakers attend all matches and their shouts of the odds for and against the players are mixed with the cries of the gambling spectators until the scene resembles a bedlam.

The fine points of the game are lost on most of those filling the seats. What they go for is to gamble and the players are merely a means to that end. AT ITS BEST

MURRETTE. The Murrette offers a

new Allan

Dwan production called "In the Heart !

of a Fool," presented by the Mayflower Photoplay corporation, and released through the First National, this week. While the plot of this splendid story is full of big dramatic punches it is laid in the most familiar surroundings and its , characters are accurately drawn from life. They are ust plain, everyday people such as we have all come in contact with. The locale is in any little city of this country. But into this peaceful community comes a vamp the Lorelei the picture calls her, and soon everybody is involved in a series of exciting adventures that change their whole life. And there is ' a tragedy and thrills a-plenty. Tragedy when an explosion occurs in the local coal mines and thrills when the hired mob from a great city visits the place and attempts to run the hero out of town. "In the Heart of a Fool" is a picturization of William Allen White's powerful epic of American life and many claim that it is the best work of fiction this distinguished" author has ever written. MURRAY "Almost an exact parallel to postwar conditions today may be seen in "Hitchin' Posts," said Frank Mayo, discussing the film in which he appears on the Murray theatre screen Monday. "Although the story of "Hitchin' Posts" occurs in 1870, just a half a century ago, it was then the reconstruction period following a devitalizing war, just as it is today. "Some had gained riches because of the war, some in the North had gained confiscated lands of the Southerners. Those who had lost their possessions were seeking to start life over. Just as now heroes who sacrificed their business to serve their government found the great, discouraging work of rebuilding ahead of them. "In those days there came welcome news to the penniless ones of rich lands to be opened up in a country to the west. Oil was found on some of the land, and the result was a rush only equally by those to Alaska and the California gold fields. "Even that condition is being paralleled today in the present oil fever that is impelling thousands to take their money and themselves to the fields that promise to make millionaires or paupers of any who wish to play the game." "Hitchin' Posts" is from the pen of H. W. Shumate and was made into picture form by George Hull. The cast supporting Frank. Mayo in this Universal feature includes Beatrice Burnham, Dagmar Godowsky, Joseph Harris, J. Farrell McDonald, Mark Fenton ,and many others.
