Football Stadia Should !
Stand Share In Taxation
NEW YORK, Aug. 18. (AP)
Henry Smith Prltchott, president of
the Carnegie Endowment for the Ad
vancement ot Teaching, suggests tax
ation, of football stadia.
"A stadium like the Yale bowl or
the one recently erected at South
Bend (Notre Dome)," he declares in
his annual report published today, "la
uaed merely for public show. "Will
not the various states Insist (and
rightly ao) upon taxing money-earning
agencies of his description? An
agency that takes In (400,000 at a
single show Is In no position to ask
for the exemption ' of this money
earner from taxation.
- "The boys who are summoned to
the football colors at the end of Au
gust are called to no boys' game.
They are to be drilled under profes
sional trainers for a grueling contelst
for which the publlo will pay hand
somely. The exploitation of the stu
dent, his diversion from genuine col
lege study and social life, his service
under professional trainers, all are in
preparation for a commercial show
before the public."

ISTANBUL, Turkey, Aug. 18. (AP)
Anita Grew, aa-yenr-old daughter of
United States Ambassador Joseph C.
Grew, today swam the 19 miles of the
Bosphorus straits from the Black sea
to the Sea of Marmora In five hours.
She had been training for the feat
since she tried It and failed because
of adverse winds and choppy seas last
year. , Today she finished the diffi
cult swim apparently with plenty of
reserve strength.
Her father and two friends follow
ed her In a small boat, playing music
on a phonograph and feeding her hot
ohocolate from time to time. Her
mother and other frlenda met her at
the famous Banders Tower where the
Bosphorus enters the Sea of Marmora.
Miss Grew used the breast stroke
over the. whole distance.

Ho-Coast League gemoa yesterday,
Oame Warden Roy Parr has return
ed here from Gold Beach and the
mouth of Rogue river, and reports
that commercial fishermen went on
a strike last week, which lasted two
days. Roderlc McCleay, owner ot the
cannery there, refused to purchase
any salmon leas than 18 pounds. The
fishermen wanted to sell salmon
weighing as low as eight Founds.-
McClray ended the strike by ac
cepting the fishermen's demands.
Parr atnted, and Is now paying four
cents a pound for the smaller fish.
and eight cent for the larger ones
The law demands nothing smaller
than an B-inch mesh net be used,
and authorities say this sine will not
stop th salmon as small as eight
pounds, unless they get caught by
the. mouth on a string of the net.
Parr reported there were about &0
nets across the river.

Jack Dempsey'a four-round ap

Only on of the four opponent

signed by Gruman, who said fighters

Deer hunters are now watching the
sky; In anticipation ot rain before
September 80. when the hunting sea
son opens officially. In previous years
w,nen tne woods have been In a dry
condition, the governor has post
poned the hunting season until the
danger of forest fires had passed.
In a case recently tried In which
a Salem attorney questioned th gov
ernor's power, the supreme court
ruled tlio executive was without
authority. However the forest ser-'
vice, both state and national, has the
power to close state and federal land
to hunting. , ,-.
Tf deer season will probably open
on September 30, but n hunting will
be allowed except on private property
is the current opinion.
Probability that hunting will be
good In the hills back ot Ashland Is
forecast by the fact that recent fires
In the Applegat country caused the
animals to enter the hills near Ash
land, and th Cascades, Residents In
th Applegat section reported seeing
several bands ot deer moving In that
direction.
SAYS SCHMELING
BEST OFHEAVIES
Dempsey Can't Come Back,
Is View Sharkey No
Match for Real Heavy
weight Camera Just Big
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 18. (AP) W.
L. (Young) Strlbllng Isn't optimistic
over the chances of any present day
heavyweights taking Max Schmeling's
measure for a while yet. .
' The Georgian, vacationing here, of
course entertains the idea that he
can whip the German who scored a
technical knockout over him several
weeks ago to retain the world's
heavyweight boxing title but doesn't
favor the chancea ot the rest. Includ
ing Jack Dempsey, Jack Sharker,
Prlmo Camera, Mickey Walker and
Tommy Loughran.
"I don't think Dempsey will ever
get back into a championship cam
paign," opines Strlbllng. ' "He always
could hit, but he won't be as fast as
he used to be and If he can't land
he'll probably be badly beaten.
Discounts Sharkey
"If Sharkey cant beat a fighter
Walker's size he can't expect to beat
a real heavyweight.
"Camera is Just a great big man,
and that lets him out. ',
"Loughran of course merits consid
eration but. ne isn't as spry as he
once was. .
"Walker is too small to fight a
good heavyweight." -
Strlbllng gives as his reasons for
the Schmellng victory the fact that
he was overtrained, and that ,he un
derestimated the German. He Is not
ready to quit the ring and Is certain
he would defeat Schmellng it they
meet again.
Retirement from the ring, he In
sists, Is In the "dim, distant future."

THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT
By Alice Judson l'eale.
BUly'a mother one morning ' re
ceived a call from an Irate neighbor.
Billy, It seemed, had atruck her lit
tle boy quite without provocation.
The matter was promptly taken up
with Billy, who explained that he
had hit the little boy because he
had been tormenting a kitten.
Obviously there were two ways of
looking at Billy's behavior. One.
that he had been a bully, striking
a child smaller than himself, the
other that he had bravely come to
the rescue of the helpless.
In her subsequent talk with Billy
his mother chose to emphasize the
latter. 8he praised his worthy mo
tive, his ready action, remarking
only lightly that It might have been
better had he chosen some other
way of rescuing the unhappy kitten.
Although - she knew that Billy
possibly had struck the little boy
more because he was Irritated than
because he wanted to save the kit.
ten's life, she chose to emphasize
the better aspect of the deed.
Whenever two ' interpretations ql
a child's behavior are possible, it Is
better to give the child the benefit
of the doubt, giving him full credit
for the good motive and Ignoring,
as far as possible, the bad one.
