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. |

|
| [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.

| almost without exception, each of
| them was possessed of that fierce
impulse to deny that anything was

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. ‘

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

| “the old college try” was given its
present meaning because of some-
body else's inefliciency; that lazy
men, anxious to cover their own

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,

inaries of her marriage to Douglas
Fairbanks, Jr.—all the denials of
an engagement, all the rumors that
they had Deen secretly married,
and then the trip to New York,
with more rumors and denials, and
finally the wedding.
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.

make-up and letting all her freckles
show), and a devoted Doug Junior
