Al, pay, and. those who belfcfee in audi scholarships and big-time foot, ®«1» ar® still tangled up in an argument that is now 40 years oil. The correct answer is that there is room enough for both but there is no reason why they should meet in competitions that are almost certain to be uneven and unfair. Football needs badly the restraining influence of the Ivy League and other conference leaders to keep from running completely wild in the scramble for talent all over the map. But there is also something to the argument that many p oorer students Would be unable to get a college education except from the rewards that football offers through scholarships and other aids. "Why," one of the leading coaches in the country asked me. "shouldn't a poor boy have the chance to use his football ability to pay his way through college? I have been a football coach for well over 20 years and I could tell you of hundreds of such boys who have received college educations and moved far up in lift, who except for football would have had no such chance to improve. Why should so many of these be barred simply because red bulb contains a- special filament designed to deliver radiant Mat instead of light That so much research and engineering can be bought so cheaply in a handy little bulb that anyone can use in the ordinary household outlet is one of the marvels of modern productfe*. GraatUnd Rice Electronic Screen Keeps Fish Safely Confined Millions of fish are still swimming the nation's streams today because of electronic screens that provide an invisible '*safety nhe," and bat the fish from destroying themselves in the water intakes of irrigation projects, hydroelectric- plants and industrial works. , The screen consists of rows of metal pipes, or electrodes, that swing freely from an overhead support •hove the stream. Water and debris P«ss through easily, but as the fish •pproach the "fence" they receive a series of mild aad harmless shocks that sand them scurrying safely •way. The impulses are produced at tie rate of from four to eight a second In an electronic generator. A special wave form of electric current, the result of several years of re> search and experiment^ turns back both large and small fiaih simultaneously, a feat impossible with ordinary current.

Cold Loss When you open the door of* your refrigerator, you lose very little of the "cold." Engineers have found by test that opening a large-size refrigerator the same number of times a home freezer is opened each day--even in air as hot as 90 degrees -- increased the electricity consumed by less than 2 per cent Mebile X-Ray Machine The latest development in the War against tuberculosis, a small x-ray machine, promises to be of untold value to farm people because it is compact enough to be mounted in a closed truck or trailer for transportation to remote farm areas. The x-rays are sent through the chest, at Will, but instead of printing a shadow picture on a large photogi'ifetiic film, the shadow is cast on a fluoroscopic screen, and then a small picture is taken of the screen. The x-ray equipment depends for much of its effectiveness on the fluoroscopic screen and on the extraseasitive photographic film. One of the mobile units makes possible examining as many ss 60 persons an hour. • $ French Perfume Industry Centered on Riviera The making of perfumes from flowers, in which France excelled, was an industry that centered about the town of Grasse in the French Riviera section. Two-thirds of the perfume passed into export trade. Before synthetic perfumes cut in on the market, arid turned many French florists to tobacco-growing, there were more than 50 perfume factories in the Grasse area. Acres and acres of flowers were required to provide the industry with 6,000 tons of blossoms annually, including hundreds of millions of handpicked jasmine flowers. Blooming perioda ef different Riviera flowers are so spaced that they kept factories busy throughout most of the year. Alpine flowers were, gathered in France aad Italy, their fragraace distilled on the spot. Tons of blooms came to ffeaaee from Algeria. Origin ef Handshaking aroee from the distrust of Ma ffeBowmen Which the instinct of self-preservation planted in the hearts of primitive man. The necessity of beiag ready to defend himaelf caused him to go armed. A maa who pioved himaelf to be unarmed, therefore, waa proving his trust and confidence and a savage who wished to prove his friendship lor another would thrust out his «nap(ty right hand in greeting. In response to this gesture the other anaa .would extend his fighting arm showing that he, too, had no concealed weapons. The clasp betokened mutual undsistanding and waa the origin of the handshake. steady pressure of developing a winning team every season removed. Today in many cases, this matter of digging up material is the toughest part of a coach's job. It is much easier to build character than it is to build a winner." Give Help to Local Boys "This part of your argument kf O.K.," we replied. "But what about this ranging for material 1.0C0 to 2,(M miles away, scouring the eeuatry for prep school or high school stars in a hot competitive race--where many are only given courses they can handle without risking any brain collapse?" "This," said the veteran coach, "isn't right. Players in the main who draw scholarships or help should be taken from nearby places. But how are you going to stop the alumni from cutting in? Or certain colleges who have smart hut well-covered recruiting systems that look after the job? I like to see southern teams made up of southern players, eastern teams of eastern* players and western teams of western players. But I don't see how you are goin£ to stop.it." It is for this reason that college conferences or groups are needed to establish certain set standards. Otherwise all competition will be cockeyed. Colleges that don't allow football scholarships have no business playing against those that do. They are not evenly matched. This also applies to scholarship standards. I could give you any number of examples concerning young stars who tried t6 enter certain colleges and failed to make the grade. They then entered other colleges with much lower scholastic standards to return and nun over tha africter ^hods This' Is strietly unfair frena every angle. Any any can aae that. It is far this reason the atricter colleges should play together aad let the big timers fight it oat among themselves. The first aad mala purpose of college should not bfe sport but educatfaa. Sport, however, is a streag aad importaat sideline. There are many whe are equipped to handle a much higher form of learning or education than ethers are. But the main idea is to give both groups a chaace to improve -- even if many can only work along elementary lines. It is for this reason that laxity in the way of scholarships and other help has its place for certain groups that otherwise might be barred from any form of college or educational life. Room for Ivy League But this doesn't mean there isn't a major spot for the Ivy League or Eastern conference or any conference that decides to set up certain higher standards and see that these are enforced, as far as they can be enforced in a human,world. Some time back one of our leading educators, who loved football, made this important point, "There is too much "sock and not enough Socrates in our college life today. 1 am afraid there is a danger of our century's athletics going the way they did in ancient Greece, where becoming a thorough abuse.
