CARDINALS ANI) BRAVES ARE
HAVING GREAT SUCCESS WITH
THEIR STAFF OF TWIRLERS
By GAYLOR TALBOT, JR.
Associated Press Sports Writer
There still is nothing that
takes the place of old-fashioned, air
tight pitching when it comes to win¬
ning ball games. And it takes no
more than a cursory examination of
the records up to now to discover why
the St. Louis Cardinals and Boston
Braves are setting the National
League back on its heels, nor why the
New York Yankees are doing like¬
wise to the junior circuit.
They have been getting some swell
pitching. In seven games the Cards'
great mound statf has allowed only
nine runs, and the Braves' surpris¬
ingly stout staff has given up only
28 scores in nine tilts. Yankee
moundsmen have held opponents to 29
runs in eight games and live of their
Starting pitchers have been in at the

an answer as any to the skeptics who

them, 4 to 0. So completely befuddled

least, possibly a month.
Dr. Francis H. Newton of Ihe Pet¬
er Beni Brigham Hospital, where the
Babe was taken yesterday after his
left leg gave way while chasing a long
fly, discovered a severe chai loyhorse
in Ruth’s left tbight. Dr. Newton be¬
lieved Ruth would he able to leave
the- hospital today but said he would
not: be able to play ball for “two
weeks or a month.”
Ruth’s leg began bothering him
during the first of the sixth inning
} of yesterday’s Yankee-Red S ox game.

lame as he swung across third. His
left ankle appeared to be bothering

rubbed his leg.
| ; As play continued, Tony Lazzevi
filed to Webb. Charlie Berry, Red
j s<;x catcher, tried to block Ruth at
j (] 1( plate and the Babe tripped over
Berry’s legs in the tangle. Ruth
grinned, gained bis feet and walked
briskly to the Yankee bench.
The Yankee fielder’s appeared all
light as lie walked to his position
when the Sox came to bat.
Then Tom Oliver, lied'Sox heavy
hitler, belted one out into Ruth’s ter¬
ritory. While the Babe was chasing
tht ball his left leg buckled and he
fell to the ground. A squad of
Yankees carried him from the field

SOME tilings go together and some do not. The
dress you wear for shopping is not the dress
that you wear for a formal dinner. The furs that
are so appropriate in December would be sadly out
of place at a June garden party.
The same thing is true of salads and salad
dressings. So many different foods come to our
tables as salads, no one dressing can do for all of
them. There is a different kind of salad for each
occasion and an appropriate dressing for each dif¬
ferent salad.
Miss Mary B. Murray has written a little book
on appropriate salad service which contains the
answers to many of your questions as to the proper
selection and service of salads.
In her book, Miss Murray lays stress on one
thing. It is this: Don’t smother the flavors of all
your different salads under a blanket of thick
dressing like mayonnaise. For while mayonnaise is
appropriate for sonic salads, it is not at all appro¬
priate for others. Mix a i/rran/g appropriate to
the salad.
We will be glad to send you Miss Murray’s
book with our compliments. It is a book you will
want to keep in a handy place where you can al¬
ways find it whenever a question of salad selection
or service arises. Send your name and address to
