CELLAR CLUBS APPEAR GOOD -New York, Match 27 — (UP)— Threw second division clubs —CinHnniitl, llroo: .yn and Philadelphia, wJH make a concentrated drive on ifie first division supremacy of the National League by tile Cuba, Pirtt eu, Giants and Cardinals during the coming campaign. Only once In tlte past four years has the first division supremacy of ihls quartet been broken, and that wiis in 1926 when the Reds finished , .econd, crowding the Giants down I to filth place The Cubs rise to power began in 1 1826 under Joe McCarthy after thei Caos had tiuished last in 1925. From i 1928 to 1928 the Cardinals dominated the League, winning two pen-1 iMtnts and finishing secotul. The I (ards took a tumble last season I ftom first to fourth.. Since the war the pirates and j Gian » have dominated the league The Cards took a tumble last sea son from first to fourth. Since the war the Pirates and (bants have dominated the League. The Giants have won four pennats since 191 S and have finished out of firs division only once In 14 .tears. The Pirates have won two Pennants— 1925 and 1927—and have .mt been out of first division in 12 years. Brooklyn and Cincinnati have strengthened greatly since last season, while the powerful Phillies apparently have everything but the pitching to crowd into select company. The Robins finished sixth last I .season, only 8H games out of first division, with a sadly depleted agglegation. Dazay Vance had a bad yea., Glenn Wright and Jake Flow-1 ers were laid up wi.h injuries, and I the pitching was erratic. With | Wright's arm well and Flowers' ' Imalth improved, and three young | pitchers Clark, Dudley and Moss — promising to have wining years along with Vanve, the Robins hopes are bright. The Robins have a powerful outfield and plenty of reserve st. eng h for every place. Dan Howley hoisted the St. Louis Browns out of second division in the American League and Many expect him t odo the same thing with the I ..ads in the National League. The Reds had a great defensive team j last year but weak hitting landed .hem in seventh place. With Bob Meusel and Harry Heilmann, two 1 American League sluggers in the I outfield, the Reds promise to show . a vastly improved team. Three I young pi che.s. Ash.

SCIENTISTS l GATHER TODAY Experiment Reports on Program as Hundreds Meet in Chicago Chicago, March 27 —tU.Rl —Scien- , tlsts who-e discoveries ha ve I brought to light the value of insulin, vitamines and the import- i ance and marvels of various i glands, gathered at the J'niversity lof Chicago today to report the re--1 suits of their research work durling the past year. About COO of the nation's leading physiologists. biochemists. [ pharmacologists and pathologists were present for tho session of the Federation of American Societies I i tor Experimental Biology. When the first day's session ; started, 72 of the experimenters ■ were ready to reveal the outcome . of their labors in 10-minute re-j ports. More than 350 papers will : be read to thhe various groups of se'entists du. ing the meeting. Outstanding among the first re- ! ports was a statement by F. J. Van Liere and George Crisler, of the , physiology department of West I Virginia University, showing that i 'he peridurium, an inelastic sack | surrounding the heart and long a to physiologists, acts as a brake for that organ." The removal of the pericardium was revealed to leave the heart 1 subject to dilation far beyond its . 'o:mal limits when the so-called ■ broke covering" is in place. This experiment indicated for | •he first time that nervous and , muscular control are not sufficient , • o prevent injury to the heart when it is subjected to excessive , exertion or nerve action, and that I a "brake" is required to prevent excessive dilation under strain. Prominent among the authorities attending are fir. C. 11. Best, co- ! discoverer of insulin; Professor | Lafayette Mendel of Yale, noted for his vitamin research, and Dr. Walter E. Dandy, of Johns Hopkins. expert in brain surgery. Kay Pon Has Three Days To Set Record Daytona Beach. Fla..
