There is a better game awaiting) his attention right in his own home| town—no matter where he lives. That game is the high school football game. The college team, of course, plays better football. It is better drilled, more precise, abler in every depart- ment. But the high school game, after all, provides more real fun. ‘There is more enthusiasm there, more excitement, and the casual spectator ean much more easily get into touch with the vibrant, intense spirit of youth—which is, when all is said and done, the chief reason for going to ny football game anywhere. For the high school youngsters “have not yet had time to become very self-conscious. They take thelr football with a life-and-death earn-) estness. The rooters in the stands are not afraid to let a slightly hys- terical note creep into their cheers. ‘The players are not yet so well regi- mented that they are afraid to act maturally. The very band—which, in- cidentally, is invariably a little bit) out of tune—toots with a frantic zeal/ that no harmonious collegiate outfit can hope to rival. The high school crowd—to put the whole thing much more simply—ts younger; and that, for the adult spec- tator, is the main thing. For we who are fully grown do not really go to football games primarily to see football played. We go, even 4f we hardly realize it, to recreate our own lost youth; to see, once more, the likenesses of the gay people we ‘used to be pouring out enthusiasm with the bright-eyed prodigality that only youth possesses. It is the at- mosphere of the thing we want, not) the game itself. And the high school boys and girls have more of that than the collc- gians. The college lad, unfortunate- jy, is already beginning to believe himself grown up. He is beginning ~ understand restraint, to think about the impression he is making. His younger brother and sister, in high school, are innocent of ali of that. They move with the uncon- scious, graceful beauty of youth it- self, made incarnate on the playing field and in the stands. They can give us more than the collegians can, ‘because they do not know that they tave it to give. International Problems Dispatehes from Washington fol- lowing the Hoover-Laval conversa- tions indicate that certain senatozs @re rather worried over the way in ‘which reparations‘and war debts have been linked together as allied prob- Jems. The traditional American all titude has been that these problenis are entirely separate and that there 4s no earthly reason why a discus- sion of lower reparations payments should be accompanied by a discus- sion of debt revision; and these sena- tors are prepared to insist that tins attitude be maintained. Technically, probably, this stand is Quite correct. But the developments of the last year have proved rather conclusively that all great interna- tional problems stand together. Re- vise one part of the international structure and you have to revise ail. To insist that each issue occupies a Separate, water-tight compartment is to serve the best interests of neither the United States nor the world at large. New Business Era American industrial leaders, accord- ing to current economic forecasts. are again. going to face an entirely differeni ort of problem during the next dec- de than they have faced in the past. For the past quarter-century do- mestic markets have been expanding at an amazingly rapid rate. Now, however, with immigration cut down, 00} ports that we are going to have a Slower rate. AS one economist te- cently pointed out: “The task of industry is going to be one of organization and correla- tion rather than one of limitless ex- pansion, It is a task that will re- quire the utmost in business ability.” All of this means that the man with real brains is going to prosper exceedingly during the next few years. The bluffer, the hand-shaker and the high-pressure artist, however, will find the going rather tough. Amateur Prophets ‘The Chicago park director who re- I mild winter because the squirrels’ fur coats are very thin and the ducks have only a light coating of feathers is indulging in the oldest and, prob- | ably, the most popular of all forms of weather forecasting. Scientists in weather bureau sta- tions look ahead as carefully as they can and make their forecasts accord- ing to the best knowledge available. And, most of the time, we accept their word. But we are always ready to listen to some amateur who gets his indications in unorthodox ways. Of course, the amateur can be, and often is, sadly mistaken, But we like to listen to him, just the same. The race used his methods for many, many centuries, and it still has a lingering fondness for them. Economy in Politics The presidential campaign chests next year, it appears, will not be what they once were. The depression has kept the coffers from being refilled, and in the campaigns which start next summer the party treasurers will find themselves hard pressed for| the needed cash. This, of course, is news to bring dismay to the hearts of “the boys,” who had the time of their lives in 1928, when both major parties had, and spent, plenty of the needful. But it is not bad news from the view- point of the ordinary citizen. After all, political campaigns have grown altogether too expensive in re- Chece REALLY 1S AN ABUNDANCE FOR EVERYBODY os ALL, NEAT 15 NEEDED 16 WORLD.

A year of forced economy, however distasteful it may be to the party hacks, may do a lot of good. i} Titles for Dirigibles Already various civic boosters in the United States are filing claims with the navy department asking that the new navy dirigible, construction of which is just beginning, be named for this or that particular city; and departmental officials will probably begin to wish before long that they hadn't started the practice of nam- ing dirigibles for cities, There are so few dirigibles and so many, many eager cities. | With cruisers, which are also named! for cities, it is different. The navy; has a lot of them, and it is constantly) building more. Sooner or later al- most every city can be satisfied. But dirigibles!’ The navy has two, with one more under construction (not) counting the tiny blimps). It will! be decades before it has enough to} satisfy all the rival city fathers. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the |! trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree |, with The Tribune's polivies. |! Dignity a ‘Frozen Asset’ (New York World-Telegram) President Hoover is a man of great dignity. So is Prime Minister Ram- say MacDonald. But they appear po- litically in vastly different environ-— ments. Imagine such rough-and-tumble’ heckling of the president of the Unit- ed States as occurred in England. Imagine this from Mr. Hoover: | “If I were that man sitting there: I would be ashamed of the silly ex-| pression on my face and I would! hold my tongue, lest the people look at me.” Or— “Now you just listen to me and| you'll improve. If you listen to your- selves you'll deteriorate.” Or— “Don't talk nonsense, my dear, lady.” Or— “Tell it to the teachers!” Yet all those quotations are from’ Prime Minister MacDonald's appear-| ance recently in Nottinghamshire. Such a scene would be unthink-| able in the United States with the president as a speaker. The fact is significant of what ails) us, according to M. E. Tracy. He) makes the point that Americans have) quit “living” their politics; have quit; feeling deeply; that we have becom?| too polite and too conventional. “We can show enough vitality at) football games,” writes Tracy, “but! when it comes to politics, how bored! we are!” That's why, he declares, over two-! thirds of the qualified voters in Eng-/ land go to the polls and why so com-| paratively few Americans vote; why,' carrying the idea farther, London had| ze eee last year and New Yori! Apathy toward government is our} nation’s crowning trait. Widespread! and righteous indignation about Tea- pot Dome was most conspicuous by its absence. And that was symbolic. But why the difference between the English temper and ours? Mostly | we believe, because of our long span’ of prosperity. While England was. suffering we got fat and contented. | And perhaps one of the beneficial! by-products of our present adversity will be @ recharging of our batteries. Maybe the old-fashioned torchlight parade, with the deep political feel- ing ee it typified, will be with us In which event we will lose in dig- nity, but we will gain in spirit and in our sense of individual responsi- by toward the democracy in whicn we live.

Every one was silent and depressed, ex- cept Cornelia and the girl, Ethel, who was inspired to unbelievable heights of kittenishness by the situation, of which she apparently had full knowledge. That much was evident in every twinkling glance she sent from Dirk to Cor- nelia to Mary, and back again. Even “Mother Ruyther,” as Cor- nelia persisted in calling her, soon looked as if she regretted her in- vitation and her thin, aristocratic nose began to look a bit pinched at the nostrils, as if she were holding in her feelings with an effort. As @ matter of fact only consideration for Cornelia, to whom she wished to be kind, prevented her giving the blond chit a verbal spanking. Dirk had said he was sorry, but his spirits did not rise with the knowledge of their having “made up,” Mary noticed worriedly. He was quiet and abstracted during dinner, and bis conversation was confined chiefly to baiting the dar- ing Ethel with a venom which passed right over her pretty yellaw head, Mary was suffering an attack of intense loneliness of spirit. Siuce she had rushed out of Mr. Jupiter's Presence to hide her tears at his remarks about her brother it had been coming on. And when Dirk turned to go, for one terrifying instant she had felt utterly alone in the world, Dirk had turned back, just in time to bring the breath back into her lungs and set her heart to beating again. But that one instant had taught her a lesson. She had loved Dirk before but never like this. Whatever she must do to keep him, she would do —for if she lost him, nothing else mattered. “Oh, my dear, I've so much to tell you,” Cornelia burbled breath- lessly to Mary during one of the silences that fell like a blight on the dinner-table, It was ostensibly an aside, but since a pin-fall could have been heard in the room, she might have been speaking into a microphone. “The grandest man, my dear! Ethel met him, and she introduced him.” The two girls exchanged en- chanted glances, “Ho's a marquis or something, whatever it is they have in South America, Handsome, and so—so brutal! He has what they say Peggy Hopkins Joyce's fascination is, only the other way ‘round, of course—he looks at you as if you were the only woman in the world!” Ethel nodded confirmation. “You know it’s a line, but you swallow ft—and my dear, you love it! Posi- tively!” Sho sighed blissfully, ORNELIA’S valle eyes held dis- like, Mary was sure. The strain of playing up to Ethel was wearing on her, and no wonder. Vivacity was not Cornelia’s manner and she did it badly. She abandoned it sud- denly and turned on her friend with one of those quick changes of feel- ie which were characteristic ,of rs “She's ga-ga about him. Simply she smiled wryly around the table, her eyes lingering on Dirk's. “I can’t say as much myself. After all, he’s stony broke and he was once a dancing teacher, or some- thing, wasn't he? Well, imagine!” “But he gave it up!” Ethel pout- ed. “He safd the strain of holding up drunken debutantes was too hard on him. So now he just sits in night clubs and sulks.” She seemed to have run out of breath, and to be waiting for com- ment, Mary was only half listening. She had a funny, far-off feeling as if she Were not quite present, or were dreaming. She was sensitive to every movement, every expression of Dirk'’s—the rest was merely a backdrop for her own love drama, Mrs, Ruyther dutifully made con- versation. “You might have brought him along tonight, I should like to have met him,” she remarked surprisingly, “Oh, he really doesn’t rate that,” Cornelia laughed. “I think he's a gunman. There's something rather —sinister about him.” Heavens, thought Mary, he's probably just some little gigolo of the speakeasies, some collegiate “sheik” with a flair for dramatiz- ing himself, Had she ever been as silly as these two girls now seemed? She was exacty Cornelia’s age, but she felt much older—more ‘tke a settled matron, nowadays. “He can’t be broke if the night clubs take him in,” Mr. Ruyther ob- served, “Oh, well, not stony,” Ethel re- buked Cornelia’s description. She shrugged a sulky shoulder at her friend. “She only says that be- caus e's got bucketfuls herself, Bo just like her to step in and take him, just because she can, and leave poor little me out in the cold.” Ethel's effervescence ind its nadir, also, Mary noted with amusement, in @ sulky ill-humor which must make friendship with her a rackety business, Or was she merely fiat- tering Cornelia cleverly? Mary didn’t know and really didn’t care. Oh, let the time go by quickly so that she and Dirk could go. “I don’t want him,” Cornelia sneered, She turned abruptly to Mary. “Well, when are you going to have another murder at your house?” Mary was completely taken aback. “My dear,” Cornelia rat- tled on, “don’t apologize, I haven't had such a good time in years,” She turned to Ethel with a resump- tion of her vivacious air but Mary felt the sting undertying her words. “ “Searched, if you can belleve it, by the best-looking policeman! Nothing ever happens at our hout like that.” She sighed. “We have to be content with marquises and such, Synthetic thrills. Just a hollow life of pleasure, n'est co bas?” She laughed, and rested her head against the back of the chair lazily, half-closing her eyes. PV the uncomfortable silence that followed, broken only by Ethel’s giggle, Dirk spoke to Cornelia for ty ahi and last-time during the mca it, Con,” he said, Cornelia’s velled eyes glittered angrily for a second, but she made @ quick recovery. She da negligent hand in his direction, and spoke through a mouthful of ice, as it she had just remembered some- thing. “Oh, Dirk, don’t let me forget to give you your lighter. It's in my car,” she said lightly and flicked malicious eyes in Mary's face. Mary felt herself flush. Did Cor- nelia just think that up, or had Dirk really been seeing her? She would have liked to be a little girl again and fly at that slyly trium- phant face and scratch it. Instead, she lifted her water-glass with steady fingers and prayed that her face did not betray the way she felt, “Lighter?” Dirk was saying, in honest perplexity. “But I don’t own a lighter!” “Dirk, my dear!” Cornelia pro- tested, in a small shriek. “I gave it to yout” Dirk was obviously performing a feat of recollection. “Oh, that on It’s been lost so long I'd forgotten I ever bad it. Thanks! Thanks a lot!” It was Cornelia’s turn to flush now, and from the way the angry color beat in her cheeks Mary felt actual fear of her. She looked dan- gerous. And when a dangerously angry woman {s coupled with sev- eral millions of dollars, almost any- thing can happen—though Mary at the moment had no clear {dea what, nor had Cornelia, perhaps. After dinner there was no oppor- tunity for the lovers to be alone, for Dirk was suddenly inspired to a coltish sort of gayety with the bubbling Ethel as playmate, They walked imaginary chalk-lines with @ basket of glaced’ nuts on their carefully poised Heads, while Mrs. Ruyther pleaded for her expensive rugs; they pummeled each other with pillows and juggled mints and wax fruits from the sideboard. Mrs. Ruyther looked faintly gray of countenance, as if she thought her carefully reared son was losing his mind, Never again, Mary gu with amusement, would she. ee a dinner of this kind!

Perhaps if she looked sufficiently bored, Dirk would take her home. She had never liked her father- in-law-to-be’ so much as when he said, with a huntorous quirk of the eyebrow which seemed to make them confidantes, “They tell me you're not a bad cribbage player?” And brought out the board. She was tired and sleepy enough to drop before the girls went home. Cornelia won out simply by sitting on the davenport until Dirk fell upon it in sheer exhaustion, the madcap Ethel and her grim-faced hostess having retired to effect re- ‘i irs on Ethel’s shattered stockings. played cribbage mechanically for what seemed hours, while Dirk and Cornelia smoked and held low. voiced commune on the davenpurt.

And a &/ moonlight drive with the bright- eyed Ethel for companion would have been sour fruit anyway. No one mentioned the lighter, if it had ever existed.

Mary caught the glance and thought fronically, “Wouldnt it be funny it she begaa to like me now that Dirk and 1 have quarreled?” Her heart was heavy with premoni- tion. Dirk’s aloofness all evening had utterly humbled her spirit. She was sure now that he had stopped loving her, that on the way home he was going to tell her their mar- riage would be a mistake.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Medical Association The. Scotch investigators, Drs. Dun- lap and Lyon, found’ a very signifi- cant point in which everyone who is overweight will be interested. It is freqently assumed that temperament is an important fcctar in causing overweight, and that the frequent, rapid motions in which a high-strung individual indulges during the course of 24 hours burn up fuel which the slower, easy-going people conserve and store in their bodies. The popu- lar conception of stout people is that they are easy going and quiet. It was, therefore, surprising to find that about 60 per cent of the people who are overweight claim to be of excitable and nervous disposition, and that only 10 per cent were phleg- matic. Anyone who happens to know well an excitable fat person knows tort an excitable fat person appears be much more excitable than an excitable thin’ person. Perhaps it is merely the exaggeration of the move- ments of those who are overweight. In endeavoring to handle the 523 cases of overweight which they stud- ied, the Scotch physicians gave each Patient detailed instructions about, reducing the diet. The amount of food taken varied from 1,000 to 1,500 calories @ day, according to the ac- tivity of the patient. Short women who led quiet lives were given 1,000 calories a day; the more active women 1,200 calories a day, and the men 1,500 calories a day. Enough protein was supplied in the he “went Russian.” He took one fail- ure after another. He said he was through with the theater. But back he bounces.

The amount of sugar or car- bohydrates given was enough to pre- vent undue feeling of weakness which @ very low sugar intake almost in- variably brings about. Thus the diet contained protein 66 grams; fat 38 grams, and carbohydrates 109 gra::-, giving a total of about 1,000 calories. There are now available numer- ous books of instructions which tell how to pick a diet according to the protein carbohydrates and fat con- tent, and also with relationship to the total amount of calories supplied. Under these diets the patients lose on an average of 1.9 pounds a week, Proving again that what the doctors j call good physiologic bookkeeping is one of the best possible methods for reducing the weight. It was found that the effect of the weight loss on the general health of these overweight people was decid- edly beneficial. In the majority of cases they felt better and were able to work more without loss in weight than previously. Particularly were they relieved of pains in the knees and in the feet, which were an evi- dence of the difficulty these stru tures were having in carrying the ex- | cess weight. When the treatment was discontin- ued, most of the patients began to gain weight promptly. However, those ‘who modified their diets and ad- ‘justed them to the amount of work they had to do were able to maintain their reduction in weight without a eal deal of difficulty. nomic thinking looks to the past.
