BLIND STUDENT OUTSHINES OTHERS CHICAGO, May 2.—Hedagogical theories, which have stood the test of centuries, stand threatened today by developments at Northwestern university. A new era of education, in which the poring over text books by students may be eliminated and all orthodox methods of instruction abandoned, awaits only the result of psychological experiments which will determine the wherefore of the proficiency of Carl W. Bostrom, 21, author, psychology expert and blind student extraordinary, at Northwestern. According to Bostrom's statements, he never crams for examinations—just mentally reviews his topics. He never takes notes on lectures and acquires all his knowledge by merely listening. Diagrams drawn by professors to illustrate their lectures he "sees" by the mental image brought to his mind by the faint noise made by the chalk scraping on the blackboard. Generally he is able to interpret the diagrams more readily than the students who actually see them. Records at Northwestern show Bostrom above the average mental calibre of scholastic proficiency. He takes more courses than the average students and obtains better grades. High School Notes Miss Edith Lewis, sophomore, has been transferred to Fullerton high school.

As a punishment, the Orangelites defeated them 12 to 2. Seven errors on the part of the local crew were largely responsible. Coach Fitzmorris' crew had been topping the league, but this will set them back a notch. They still have one more game, with Huntington Beach. The silver loving cups won by Miss Irme Jacques and Alex Heak in the city tennis tournament are on display in the Center so window of the First National Bank. The cups in the baseball and basketball leagues are also being shown. BUSINESS PACT IN ODD NUPTIALS GREELEY, Colo., May 2.—A "business marriage," according to the reported terms of a pre-nuptial agreement, occurred here when Mrs. Florence Lear, 60, became the bride of William H. Barnes, 39. According to the asserted arrangement, Barnes relinquishes all claims to half of his wife's estate—the amount allowed him by law—should she die before he dies. In return, Mrs. Barnes is said to have agreed to make a will deeding all of her property to Barnes, the will including a provision that the instrument shall be void if the marriage proves an unhappy one.
