I 'I it rt 4 I a i 1 1 1 I NEW HAVEN, April William Shakespeare, with someone else to do the thinking is like training for a bout on ice cream, Gene Tunny, heavyweight champion of the world. yesterday told Yale men in Prof. William Lyon Phelps class in Shakespeare.

Then be added: "When you are through, you are no better off than when you started." Tunney fulfilling a promise to talk to Yale men on his studies in the writings of the playwright, said that at first he had to read a play many times to get understanding and appreciation of it- He took "Winter Night's Tale" as an opener, and read it 10 times before he got the real value of it. So much is said in so few words. Tunney explained. Since he has read all the master's works. Although Tunney's coming here was kept a half-secret, more than aoo students crowded into IIarkness ball and hundreds were outside.

It was tht regular period for the class. Tunney had come from the railroad station and went into the class room five minutes before noon, entering with Dr. Phelps amid cheers. Silence came when Dr. Phelps lifted his hand and explained that this was the anniversary of William Shakespeare's birth.

Because Shakespeare is so universally everyone's poet, it was fitting that Tunney should speak to the class on this occasion, be said. "I know that Mr. Tunney loves art and literature for its own sake," said Professor Phelps. We tried to keep this meeting quiet, but it was impossible. Tunney's coming here to talk with you is a gracious and charming act to Yale." After Tunney had finished, Professor Phelps said the champion would talk with the students.

Instead, they swarmed about him for autographs until the professor told his guest he would be late for lunch. They left the lecture room amid more cheers. In the late afternoon Tunney returned to New York. DINOSAUR SKULL FOUND CLENVISTON. April 24.Potato yields reaching as high an and -Pat bushels to the acre were reported today by Charles A.
