The Spice in Sports BY BILL LEACH
Whoever the bird was who first remarked that “you can’t keep a good man down’’, must have been reading about the Cincinnati Reds of 1932. No other expression so characterizes the new spirit at Redland Field this year, for every single, solitary player on the club really and truly feels that the Reds eighth in 1931, are going to finist at, or near the top of the National League pennant race this
summer!
The experts around the circuit will tell you that that spirit is probably the most remarkable thing about the Reds. Last year the fans jeered a team that lacked nerve and courage, a team that didn’t care enough about playing good baseball to even make a try. The loss of games was tough enough for the fans to swallow, but the total lack of spirit on the club was the thing that hurt most. Compare that situation with the atmosphere prevailing at Redland Field this year! Every man on the club is out there trying, confident in the belief that the Reds are due >to have their day. New players have infused new blood into the team, and all of them are rarin’ to go places and do things! Apparenty, the big trouble with the Reds is that they have so many really fine players that there isn’t roont for all of them on the field! To show you the difference in the Reds of 1932, the experts agreed in February that the team couldn’t finish anywhere but last, and are now predicting that the Reds can’t possibly win the pennant unless they grab a couple of good pitchers in a hurry! As a matter of fact, the Reds could use some additional pitching talent, but what they already have isn’t weak by any means. Red Lucas and Si Johnson are both off to a great start, and Ray Kolp has caused great glee among the fans by returning to his old-time form. Larry Renton isn’t finished by a long shot, and the youngsters, Owen Carroll, Wally Hilcher and Riff Wysong are getting the experience they need to carry them through. ' ( The Reds are a far different aggregation than the 1931 club, as Chicago, Pittsburgh and St Louis will grading!^ testify. So you can’t blame the Cincinnati fans for talking “pennant-talk’ even this early in the season! Reds Tackle Pirates Here’s next w T eek’s schedule of the Reds’ games at home: Sunday, May 1—Reds vs. Pittsburg Pirates. Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, May 5, 6, 7 and 8—Reds vs. Boston Braves. Raspberries For Maxie Max Schmeling, world’s heavyweight champ, is on the horns of a dilemna and doesn’t know how to get off. Maxie, you know, is touring the country in a series of exhibition bouts, with the idea of picking up some loose change here and there. But the fight fans are sore at Maxie, and everywhere the champ goes, he wins the wellknown raspberry. Furthermore, the fans are staying away from Schmeling’s fights, with the result that the tour is not panning out very Avell at all. Schmeling has no one to blame btu himself. It all started last week w’hen he was scheduled to fight an exhibition in the East, but refused to enter the ring because the attendance was too small to suit his royal tastes. Ever since then, the faus have been failing him unmercifully, and Max is in a fair way of becoming the most unpopular ring champion of all times. o Phenomenal Growth Reviewed by Agent

GREAT AUSTRALIAN RACE HORSE DIED FROM COLIC
HOME AIR CONDITIONING IS VITAL TO HEALTH BECAUSE THE HOME IS WHERE THE FAMILY SPENDS MOST OF ITS TIME
San Francisco, Calif., April 29.— —Phar Lap, great Australian race horse died of colic, an official chemical report said. Chemists and velerinaries who made'a three-w T eek investigation of the horse’s sudden death found ithat a small quantity of arsenate of lead, eaten with sprayed grass, might have aggravated a stomach disorder of long standing.

A POUND and a half of dust is inhaled annually by the average citizen in many of the nation’s industrial centers, according to the Holland Institute of Theimology of Holland, Michigan. The Institute points out that the air is constantly filled with pollens and dusts of decayed organic materials, the dusts of earth and the dusts that are a result of industrial activity. And the dust-laden atmosphere, states the Institute, is the source of 50% or more of the household dirt that keeps house-wrives constantly busy with mop, brush and vacuumcleaner. The air-borne dirt filters into the house through the cracks around doors and windows and a £reat deal of it is tracked in. During winter a great deal of dust and lint results from the rapid deterioration of fabrics and other furnishings caused by excessively dry indoor atmospheres. Another portion is traceable to the home heating system but this would be neg-
ligible were proper care exercised in firing and in the handling of coal
and ashes.
Heretofore household dirt has been accepted as a necessary evil, but the Institute points out that the latest type home air-condition-ing systems practically free the home air from dust, lint and even odors. These air-conditioning systems are equipped with an airwashing unit through which the home air is constantly circulated. This washing process removes from the air 98% or more of the dust that may be in it. In winter it supplies the home air with sufficient moisture to offset the usual indoor dryness. Household furnishings do not dry out and thus another source of dust and lint is eliminated. So winter and summer, the home air can now be kept practically dust-free. Furthermore, during summer the ai washing process is a ‘dependable masus for cooling the
home-air.
