DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor SOO VC TSS O TOV STII VCISVIV FOC TSCTCOV TIS SCIENCE NEWS | By FRANK CAREY Associated Press Science Reporter WASHINGTON (® — Because East Africans buy their wives with catile, land which should be used for growing food is wasted on rais- ing scrawny livestock. This not only cuts down food supplies but is ruining the soil, Dr. Ernst Weigt of the University of Cologne, Germany, today told the 117th International Geographical Congress. | The Negro native’s position in kis society—and in the number of his wives—depends not on the quality of his livestock, but on numbers, Dr. Weigt told some 1,000 geographers from 60 coun- tries. Consequently, he said, the cattle are pretty scrawny and ‘do not help much in nourishing the peo- ple.” Furthermore, overstocking is ruining the land. | ‘ “Livestock is not so much an economic as a social asset,” he added. | Asserting that President § Tru- man’s Point Four program indi- cated the great modern interest in this land of 20 million people, Dr. have either had to run over the, | Weigt said crop-raising in the face of soil, water and other handicaps is the most important activity of the East African Negro natives, but the men prefer stock-raising — and leave toiling in the agricultural fields to women. Dr. Weigt added: “An ever-growing population and increasing numbers of cattle have to make a living out of the soil, which is losing fertility by too rapid rotation w:thout the possi- bility of restoring it by manuring.” , Declaring that the most difficult obstacle of all to overcome in East Africa is “man,” he continued: “To change the mind of the} natives takes no less time than to find out by trial and error what ean be grown under the often in- tricate conditions of East African soils and climate. “Neither problem can be solved by a mere transfer of methods | from the very different world of the white men.” | Tries For Home Run Mark In FSL By F. T. MACFEELY Associated Press Staff Writer Home runs, once almost as rare as cold weather postponements in the Florida State League, are be- coming as plentiful as oranges ~ with such fellows as Chuck Aléno and Ed Levy around. | Aleno, gunning for the record of 33 homers set by Levy in 1950, hit his 23rd Friday night though ‘ bree rclncapoe keep his San- am from losing to the Pa- latka Azaleas, 9-3. Palatka had two home run hit- ters in Jim Ragas and Don Poston and better pitching than the Semi- none Blues. Bascom Hamm and Cecil Hutson combined to hold San- ford to six hits. | @ runs also stuck out in De- | Lant’s 7-0 vietory over Cocoa. Red Roberts and Gale Penza each hit one, Penaz’s going over 400 feet and clearing the light poles in right field. Slim Jim Vickery pitched the shutout for his 11th win since fining the leading DeLand Red ats. In other games, Orlando beat Jacksonville Beach, 5-0; and Lees- burg nosed Daytona Beach, 6-5, in 10 innings. George Klarman pitched the shut | out for Orlando, giving the Jack- | sonville Beach Sea-Birds only four hits and no bases on balls. The Senators scored all their runs in the second inning, when they blasted Ernie Clark from the mound. !

Lower Prices ‘tn Vegetables WASHINGTON (#—Lower prices for fresh fruits and vegetables more than offset a slight rise in the cost of other foods, causing the government’s index of retail food prices to drop six-tenths of one per cent during the two weeks ended July 28. The Bureau of Labor Statistics announced Friday its index now stands at 233.7 per cent of the 1935-39 average; a slight decline from the all-time peak two weeks earlier, LANDUYTS ENTERTAIN OUT-OF-TOWN GUESTS Mr. and Mrs. B.

Not about Georgia Tech anyway. During that 15 minutes—the first quarter of the Tech-Southern Meth- coaches learned that Tech had rite a team. This fall, the men who write ind the men who coach have avoid- ed getting caught again. Tech, they say almost to a man, is the best in the Southeastern Conference. That is the same as saying Tech first no-hitter, earlier in the season. General Electric actually won the game in the second inning when they scored four times on two errors, three hits and a pair of in- field outs. Two errors and Carpen- ter’s single accounted for another run in the third. Two more errors and Foley's one bagger netted the GE club two more tallies in the fourth. DiLallo’s double, an error and singles by Valdez, Smith and Light- cap gave GE the win in the fifth. Clint Warrens’ homer plus an er- ror, a single and an infield out pro- luced four more counters for the GE club in the sixth. They picked up four more runs To Writers * Vis one of the nation’s best. | From the momentum of 10 vic- tories, one tie and the Orange Bowl victory over Baylor, Tech this fall is supposed to keep going in a winning way. What appears to be the makings of a magnificent running game were jeined together fer a complete spring training and each running man is expected Sept. 1. Tech anticipates no service calls, ‘ scholastic difficulties, late trans- fers to another school or signings of professional baseball contracts— factors which have reduced many other set of fine prospects to a low class outfit. Tech's great herd of footmen is headed by Leon Hardeman who might well be just what Tech claims he is, “the SEC’s best run- ner since Eddie Price of Tulane and Mississippi's John Dottley.” To quarterback them Tech isn’t near so healthy. At present Tech’s best play callers and passers are Sophomore Bill Brigman and Freshman Jack Hall, both ef whom promise a lot but have had no | mance to deliver on those prom- s. Along with weakened quarter- backing, as compared with 1951's "astonishing team, Tech also con- siders itself weaker at defensive ' guard and defensive ends. This is | due to the graduation of Quarter- back Darrell Crawford, All-Amer- Leesburg's winning run in’ the if the seventh, on a walk, a hit, ica Guard Ray Beck and Ends 10th inning was a gift.

Only four balls were hit to the outfield off the GE righthander. Oddly enough, it was against the same club that Knowles hurled his ! out seven an? ¥ diLallo and Carpenter and Claude Valdez’ home run. Warren and DiLallo led the ox! attack with three hits each. In the nightcap, the Navy came from behind in the fifth inning to hand the Telco nine a 13-7 defeat. Teleo took an early lead when they scored a run in the first inn- ing on a walk, a stolen base and Ja areal's single second frame, wildness on the part of Navy hu which resulted in the passing oi seven men gave Telco six more counters to make it 7-0.

Says Dodd, who whenever possible is an optimist: ‘We should have a well balanced. sound football team ith the exception of the quarter- ack position and lack of anced tackles. re “We will have fine running backs, good offensive ends and ex- perienced defensive backfield men.

Hero This Week’s Heel SAN FRANCISCO # — Cab Driv- er Anthony Gelini was a hero last week - hailed as the man who cracked San Franeisco’s fantastic $20,000 burglary and recovered $17,000 of the loot. Today, the 44-year-old cabbie finds himself under indictment, charged with aiding and comforting a bank robber, receiving stolen bank funds and transporting them across state lines. Gelini faces 25 years imprison- ment and $22,500 in fines if con- victed. That’s only five years Jess than the maximum penalty that could be imposed on Charles Frederick Will, 33, the confessed robber who allegedly couldn’t stop bragging about his deed. The federal indictment against a former Pittsburgh draftsman, on | charges of bank robbery and in- terstate transportation of stolen funds. Gelini’s part in the zany robbery started when Will hailed his cab a few minutes after bluffing banker Walter Blomberg out of $20,000 on a false threat his wife was being held captive, Gelini told police Will fo him at gunpoint to accompany him to Reno. After stopping along the way dor drinks during which Will boasted to tavern patrons “I just robbed a bank,” the cabbie man- aged to slip away and drove to San Francis Gelini said “all I was trying to do was to be Will’s friend until I could make a break. Too many eab drivers have been killed by hot being friends.” But Assistant U. S. Attorney Joseph Karesh told a different story. “‘Gelini was deeply involved. , There were many times when he | was out of the presence of Will.” “Instead of looking for authori- ties to tell his story, he planned to get $5,000 of the money or keep it all,” Karesh said. “He came back to San Francisco ... because he knew the game was up.” Committee Meet Of Boy Scouts There will be a meeting of the Boy Scout District Committee at | the Lion’s Den next Monday, Aug. 11.
