NEW YORK, March 3.—Dr. Charles Gray Shaw, author of a best-seller on culture and for 30 years a professor at | New York University, warns American men that their women folk have out- distanced them culturally. Men have gone in for physical cul- ture and business, he says, while what used to be the weaker sex has developed artistically and mentally, as well as physically. “If this goes on, in another genera- tion women will supplant men in crea- tive culture. Today our men of culture are all women.” Dr. Shaw means women will soan be writing the best books and painting superior pictures, while the men play squash and tend to business ‘This state of affairs is a distinctly American phenomenon, he belleves, an outgrowth of wowen's freedom from household drudgery. large families and economic responsibilities—plus an apti- tude for appreciation.

Special Dispatch to The Star. SILVER SPRING, Md., March 3.— A resolution supporting recent recom- | mendations of the Board of County Commissioners, which call for the erec- tion of a senior high school in the east- ern suburban district and recommends that the $36,000 item authorizing six new school rooms in the Takoma-Sil- ver Spring High School for the 1932 bond issue be eliminated, wa$ adopted by the General Committee on Scl Matters for this area, at a meeting'in the County Building here last night.

MARCH 3, 1931 AUTOGRAPH HUNTERS VICTIMS OF DEPRESSION Resort to Telephone for Hearing Voice of “Lion” Is London’s Latest Wrinkle. LONDON (N.AN.A). — Autograph hunting is not what it was, either finan. cially or as a sport. Perhaps it is be- cause the modern “lion” is easier of access and a good deal more aware of the uses of publicity or it may be that he writes more, but certainly there is a slump in signatures. The latest idea among lion baiters, however, is to ring up one'’s victim on the telephone, engage him. in some fl!fl!fll resolutions asking the Legisla- ture to authorize funds to be used in the establishment of & senior high school here and it was reported that a num- ber of them had acted favorably. Im- mediate action on the part of all or- ganizations was urged and an effort will be made to obtain their backing before March 10, William H.
