EDITORIAL Everything is relative, of course, and we see that the first batch of Ethiopian slaves freed by II Duce have been shipped to the mines. It has been a busy month for the tracer in charge of the H file. No sooner does he locate Barbara Hutton than he loses track of Hitler. Everyone seems satisfied with the foot ball rules as they now are. fy sanctions for flagrant fouls. NIP IT IN THE BUD Elsewhere in the Bulletin it may be seen that some one is very peculiarly “finding” license cards, keys, bank books, ete.—all of which are of no use except to the owner. Said articles disappear from cars parked on borough streets. Instead of keeping such little things quiet, it would be far better to report them to the local authorities in order that the guilty ones be warned and brought to justice before they do something that will send them to the Reformatory or a House of Correction. All thefts to date have every indication of being the work of children. A NEW. BRAND OF “LIBERTY” Two minstrels who drew from their guitars music about “the downfall of the Soviet Union” and “the end of world” as they wandered among collective farms in the Kiev district were sentenced to death in the Kiev Regional Court as counter-revolutionaries. Twenty-two others received pri- son terms of three to ten years, And this is what liberty and freedom amount to in Russia! God save this country from the agitation and propaganda that would destroy our own Constitution, limit freedom of speech and press and establish a brand of “liberty” where life, death and property are subject to the whims of a politic- al dictatorship. GOSH! This hurts us worse than it does you, but the very latest is | that green eye-shading and mascara is the thing in feminine beauty. According to the experts, who bear up under these things better than we do, a sprinkling of stardust on the green back- ground would enhance the ensemble, as it were. And so when we add green eyeshade (with or without stars) to pink toenails and red fingernails, not to mention “oft” shades of rouge, powder and lipstick, you may as well prepare for the i worst. | | | An exponent of the new make-up has just the words for it. We think, though, the next rewriting should speci-| the | | | [FRANKIE FRISCH comes sliding | into the bag while the baseman | stands there, ball in hand, waiting for him. In the dugout some play- er yawns and turns to his team mates. “There goes Frankie again, mak- ing that old college try,” he re- | marks in tones of supreme disgust. { Where the term originated I do | not know, although it is obvious | that it Is an expression of the pro- fessional athlete's for the player who does not get paid for | | scorn his work. But I do know that it has become baseball's most over- used term of disapproval for the player who, presumably for the sake of being theatrical, attempts to make some play that cannot be made. Also | know that the increasing number of big timers who regard anything out ef the ordinary as “the old college try” is one of the reasons why the sport lacks a very real part of its former fascination for the fans. That Frisch lasted so long as one of the highest paid players in the game may be at- tributed largely to the fact that he is of the spirit which drives him into makin that “old college try,” even though his legs may rebel against such exer- tions. Certainly it also is the reason why the old Orioles, who had such scant esteem for most collegiate notions, remain famous 40 years after the days of their ac- tive glory. Indeed this fierce impulse to lead forlorn hopes, to refuse to admit that any shoestring catch is impos- sible until a muscle straining effort to accomplish it has been made, is one very important reason why there are any stars to applaud to- day. It is a fact that makes up for the occasional athlete who may, as the dugout critics so often yelp, go through the motions merely to show off, It was the spirit which compelled him to try the impossible which made Ty Cobb the great player that he was when men of perhaps equal speed and keenness of eye were serving a dull span in the big show. In spite of the toll taken by time during his last months as a player Babe Ruth had this spirit, too. Earle Combs, so often so badly | shattered in the service of a cause, | had it, “Old College Try” Ls Mark of Star possessed Frisch Lou Gehrig, Casey Stengel, Sher- ry Magee, Chief Bender, Rabbit | Maranville and—but there is no need to call the roll.

Obviously, I am not suggesting’ that a player should sacrifice all re- gard for life and limb merely to provide a spectacle for the custom- ers. The memory of Johnny Gra- “Casual make-ups,” she informs us, “will not do with the | powski giving head first into a con- spirit of elegance and fantasy which will pervade this com- | ing winter.” There is just one helpful suggestion. Why not engage the services of a few Indians to put on the decora- tions? They wouldn’t stop at a measly little green, but would | do a real job. LOOKS BRIGHTER NOW | Only a few months ago it was widely said that the League of Nations was a colossal failure. Today there seems to be | an excellent chance that it will be able to do what seemed |! the impossible—stop Mussolini's African colonization ambi- | tions. Italian troops are still fighting in Ethiopia. Italian papers, | which are merely the echoes of the dictator, still say that Mussolini’s war-like spirit is unquelled. But, at Geneva, Ital- ian spokesmen are talking in much softer voices. They seem | genuinely worried. Reason: Through League action, 50 nations have pledged themselves to stiff economic sanctions against Ilaly—and | England, leader of the League in the present crisis, has re-| fused to reduce its Mediterranean fleet, is sending still more ships to key points. KNOWLEDGE COMES TO THE FARM (Good farm cooperative organizations perform many val- uable services for their members aside from their basic busi- | ness of buying and selling commodities. Not the least of these services might be classed as educa- tion. Cooperative executives must keep in constant touch | with a wide variety of national and international problems which, though they are seemingly divorced from agricul- ture’s most direct problems, influence the welfare of every farmer. Tariffs, embargoes, currency standards, changes in the money system, taxation—these may appear to be far | away from the plow and scythe, but their relation to farm- ing is comparable to that of the moon to the tides. As a result, cooperatives have made steady and successful! efforts to interest their members in these diverse issues. | They are discussed in cooperative publications. They are often the topics of speeches made by cooperative leaders. The consequence of that is to bring the farm fireside a far more thorough, sound and conclusive knowledge of the great world problems than the farmer ever possessed in the past. That is the kind of progress that really means some- | thing—and that is worthwhile and permanent. ‘ | crete floored dugout, of Greasy Neale crashing so hard against the right field wall at the Polo grounds that he had to be rushed to the hos- pital, of Frank Bowerman, Christy Mathewson’s old catcher, splintering a timber several inches thick by the force of his impact while chas- ing a foul, would prevent me from requiring murder for my 50 cents. Yet | am wondering how many younger players and fans realize how firmly this now scornful ex- pression “the old college try” is bound up with all that is best in base- ball. I am wonder- ing how many of them realize that, by and large, it really is the same spirit which makes a Frisch, a Combs, ; a Joe Moore, a Ruth, a Greenberg or a Cobb stand out far above their: humdrum fellows. | am wondering how many of them really under- stand that the refusal to quit chas. ing a fly ball until it has hit the ground and the run has been scored must still go far toward determin. ing the winner whether among men or among teams. Probably, though, the number is large. Indeed, the more you think about it the more you suspect that — Greenberg | “the old college try” was given its present meaning because of some- body else's inefliciency; that lazy men, anxious to cover their own | defects, endeavored thus to express ! their jealousy of stiffer marrowed fellows, I recommend that thought to the . next occupant of press box or dug- { out—I do not include the stands be- cause the subject is far better un- derstood there—who feels called upon to sneer when Joe Vosmik takes a nose dive in the outfield or when Pepper Martin comes swarm- ing into a well-blocked base? If that is the “old college try,” and I have mentioned that the two things seem much the same to me, it is by far the most important con- tribution of any campus to any sport, ITAA ARK Kh STAR + DUST + Movie « Radio %%% By VIRGINIA VALE k%% OLLYWOOD movie ac- tors are having fits all over again about that state in- come tax—they swear they’ll move out of the state, that they’ll make fewer pictures and so actually make more money, and all that sort of thing. And they get no sympathy whatever from the people who've been pay- ing state income taxes for years and years, New Yorkers, for exam- ple.

And now we've had Miss Craw- ford and her new husband, Fran- chot Tone, whom the movie fans were inclined to ignore until he turned in a grand performance in “The Lives of a Bengal Lancer,” traveling to New York on the same train, engaging a large suite in a hotel, and swearing—at least, she did—that the trip was made for broadcasting purposes—not matri- monial ones. The suite, fncidentally, was on the seventh floor, That's not sur- prising, though most people like to be high above the tumult of the city’s streets. But Californians in- sist on being near the earth, and when pressed some of them break down and admit that it’s because they're afraid of earthquakes!
