As the speed of age*hardening is

QOOR CHILD /AND int SCHOOL By Dr ALLEN G IRELAND N<«- /n(/> SMfr Learning Health For A Purpose The idea is not new, but it took in ingenious teacher to put it into i The place was a small high | school. To make up ’ £ standard teams nearly every student had to participate. Their opponents, the larger- schools, had the advantage in numbers and facil- ; 1 itiea But the spirit was there, so they set out to make I jp for their shortcomings. And ;hey did it by making a thorough rtudy of healthful living. The principal of that sciiovl told I me that every pupil knew and observed the rules of nutrition. I Smoking was taboo. Dances and parties were shortened, more study was done at school, and the radio was turned oiT at a stated hour when the importance of sleep was learned. Candy and sodas were definitely out. Colds received early care. In brief, it was just a case of common sense application, with- , out overemphars. Anyway, it worked. Next week Dr. Ireland win dieeuss the large eubjeet of playground ar.cideuU and how to avoid them.

DODGERS, REDS I HOLD LEAD IN SENIOR LEAGUE ■ Teams Downtrodden For Years In First Place In National League New York. Apr. 22. (U.R) - A break in the National league schedule today kept the Dodgers and Reds idle and thereby provided the only apparent method of halting tho stampede of the two league leaders—still tied without a sign of slipping. Dizzy Dean s first victory of the season. Babe Ruth's second home run. the charge of the Boston Red Sox into first place in the American league and a half dozen other developments were relegated to the background today as the Reds and Dodgers kept pace. The Reds got down on the ground and wallowed with the Cubs in a buttle which saw the old tail-end-ers come through with the better pitching and punch that was carried through 12 innings. Their victory, fourth in six starts, followed a triple play started at' first base by the aging Sunny Jim Bottomley in the 11th Inning. Paul | Derringer, who went the route and fanned ten. walked Jurges and Bry-j ant. The side was retired for him i when Galan lined to Bottomley and all three were killed off. The Reds put together a double by Pool. Bottomley’s single, the fifth Cub error, and Goodman’s triple to pound their way home. 8 to 4. They added two double plays to their triple kiling. Meanwhile, at Boston, the Dodg ers bounced back from the Babe’s first inning home run. got 4-hit pitching from Ray Benge for seven innings, one-hit pitching from Zachary in the last two heats, and won in a walk. 8 to 1. Both clubs won their series, the Reds. 2 games to 1, and the Dodgers, 3 to 1, for four victories each , in six starts and rank second only to the Red Sox in the other league. Tom Yawkey’s million dollar beauts have won four out of five. The Reds and Dodgers are getting their chief competition from the Cardinals, a half game behind ■ and waiting for the leaders to slip, i Dizzy Dean came bat” from his i first game injury yesterday to hurl a five-hit, 6 to 1 victory against the ■ Pirates and give the family a clean : slate for the season. Daffy won ’ his opener a few days ago. The ■ Pirates' only run was scored on Arky Vaughn's second inning homer. The Giants and Phillies play the only game on today’s National league, after going 10 innings to a 4 to 4 tie yesterday. The Sunday
