MfIJus's Stay II Brief.

Robinson decided to remove Leon Ca
dore from the box at the start OF the
seventh, as he figured the Phillies were
beginning to solve the pitchers delivery.
He called in John Miljus, who retired the
first two batters in fine style. and then
failed to get the ball over for Neale.
Rawlings also found Miljus lacking con-
troll OF his curve ball and waited until
three balls had been called. Then Mil
jus was compelled to put the ball over
and the phi1lies' second baseman
promptly lined 1t to right for a single
Robinson held another hasty consulta-
ton with himself and decided that MIL
jus wouldn't do either, and Clarence
Mitchell was called in to take the
mound. Clarence made good by forcing
Williams to pop to Griffith for the third
out and by holding the opposition In
check for the rest of the game.

WHEN TAKEN

If Weak, Thin or Rundown Try
This New Treatment in Tablet
Form-Watch the Quick Results.

Everyone has heard Of the appar-
ent wonders performed by yeast in

remarkably effective combination of
tonics And the best of it is that
you can take il in pleasant tablet
torm-no need to eat yeast cakes,
which are so disaCreeable to many.
The preparation in which these two
great health builders have been com
bined is known as IroniZed Yeast.
This contains highly concentrated
brewers yeast which is far more ef-
fective than ordinary bakers yeast
because it is richer in vitamines. vi
tamines. as we all know, is the mys-
terious element which Science has
found to he so absolutely essential
to health. Due to modern methods
of food preparation vitamines are
lacking in most Of our commonest
foods-and that is why so many Of
us become Sickly and rundown.
If you are suffering from loss of
strength, if you frequently become
exhausted if your food has no taste
tor you, or Il you are irritable thin,
pale, nervous or generally run down,
then trv this remarkable new tonic

Will Mobilize Motor Trucks
 And Planes

New York, Oct. 17-A fleet of 57,- GOO motor trucks, or as many of them as are found necessary, will be mobi- lized in the event of a protracted gen eral railroad strike, to bring New York its daily quota of 1.5O0 carloads of foodstuffs. Health Commissioner Copeland announced today.
 There are adequate supplies In Sbortlge, he said, to ration the city through a rail tieup of three weeks but Importation of milk by trucks would have to begin at once.
 The coal situation, he said, was somewhat less favorable, owing to the fact that coal companies have scant storage space in which to build up a reserve. Efforts are being made to l1lduce large consumers to fill their bins at once so that the dealers may stock up again for small consumers before the date set for the strike.
 New York, Oct. IT.. = Plans for aerial transportatios of food to New York city in event the threatened railroad strike materian0es, have been completed by the Aero Club of America, it became known today. More than 2,0o0 adrplanes are availa- ble throughout the country to supply food to the larger cities, it was stated

Chicago, Oct. 17-Lack of unity between the ''Rig F'our'' Brotherho oods and the American Federation of La for railroad unions, which comprise more than two-thfrds of the 2,500,000 organized railroad workers was indt- cated today, with the prospect of general railroad strike without a central head and two separate sets of demands formulated.
 Executives of some of the federat- ed groups demand, before calling out their men, an iron clad agreement from the Brotherhoods specifying a won and giving assurance that no ment.
 The consensus among the leaders Is that no alternative is left the Fedora ton of Labor crafts but to join the strike. The chief executives, how ever, refuse to take responsibility and final action would be determined at meetings to be held in Chicago this week to which the general chairman and vice presidents of all the groups in the Federation of Labor, with the exception of the Switchmen's Union of North America, which already has cast its lot with the Brotherhoods, have been sumn oned. After each group has made its decision, all the chief executives will meet.
 By agreement no one group will act decision will prevail over all.
 Suspicion of the Brotherhoods is indicated in American Federation of Labor quarters and they express fear of being double crossed by the Big Flo1Ir.''
