nKRS. COOLIDGE, who Is an
M enthusiastic baseball fan, is
AVA a lady among lions today,
being the only woman in the little

champions against the New York
Yankees President and Mrs. Cool

Kellogg, Secretary Mellon OF the
Treasury and Attorney General
Sargent.
1t had been expected that the
Vice President and Mrs. Dawes,
who were guests at the White
House over night, would be mem
bers of the Presidential party. But
their visit to Washington has been
cut short by the sudden death yes

aunt, Mrs. Frances B. Dawes, and
they are leaving this evening for
Marietta, Ohio, to attend the
funeral.
President Coolidge seems to be
developing a coming appetite" for
the play. Probably he has attend
Ell fewer theatrical performances
than any President in the memory
of the present generation, his APP
Iearances at local playhouSes
Usually being limited to the opera
or such notable productions as
"I5amlet," with John Barrymore
ip the role of the melancholy
prince, or John Drinkwater's Rob

SCIENTISTS EFFECT
ANIMAL SEX CHANGES

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
PARIS. November 3.--Experiments
in the changing Of the sex of various
animals, coincident to an attempt to
Codify the laws governing all animal
growth, are now being carried on wit h
success under the auspices of the
Paris Faculty of Medicine by Dr..
Christian Champy.
Starting some five years ago with
experiments on the frog and other am
phibians, wherein the change of sex
from male to female was accomplished
by an alternative process of starving
and then of fatteninG, Dr. Champy by
means of gland grating has been able
to change the sexes of such mammals
as the guinea pig and rabbit. The
Russian savant Zavadowsky has per
formed similarly successful grating
on chickens.
AS result of their combined labors
great progress has been made in de-
termining the physical laws govern
ing animal growth, to the point that
DIR. Champy hopes that in the not dis
tant future they may be laid down as
confidently in the biological field as
in physics and chemistry.
The composition of the creative
glands of all males and females from
the insect kingdom up to that of the
higher animals. says DR.. Champy,
presents a surprising sameness. The
effects which the male and fema le
glands have on the outward growt h
Of any one species-such as horns,
hair, shell and so forth-can now
to a certain degree be charted and
catalogued.
1t is now possible, the French sa-
want points out, to determine the sex
of prehistoric animals by an exam.

clally is that some kind of bread is

Balance of Diet.
In the recent export number of the

ing on THE Truth About White
Flour said:
1T would be far better for the hI.
man race that the enthusiasts of
whole wheat bread would use more
energy to get people to balance their
diet properly with vegetables and
milk, and be sure of the results, than
to mislead the public to believe, as SC
many do believe, that whole wheat
bread is the great elixir of life for the
dyspeptic. anemic, undernourished
conStipated human being. Nothing is
more absurd. Whole wheat bread in
| itself will never change an improperly
balanced diet into a properly balanced
diet, and the dyspeptic, anemic and
| undernourished physically inefficient
human system will remain a dyspep
! tic. anemic, undernourished inefficient
human being on a whole wheat bread
diet unless that diet is properly sup.
plemented by vegetables, fruits and
milk products, just as white bread
| diet must be supplemented with vege
tables, fruits and milk

An echo of the prolonged con-
troverSy within the War Department
as to the probable value in war of
fixed anti-aircraft defcnses found its
way into the annual report today of
Mai Gen Mason VI. Patrick, chief
of the Army Air Service.
Gen Patrick disclosed that the Air
Service itself had made n very com
plete study" OF the department, : anti
aircraft defense project which had
been submitted to the department for
its information.
The sureSt defense against aircraft
is other aircraft" he declared. Great
care should he exercised that the
limited appropriations shall be spent
to provide the greatest protection pos
Sible.
'Undoubtedly Il small amount of
anti-aircraft equipment. consisting of
sunS. "'""hineS guns. saarChIShtS ana
listening apparatus, are an important
art of the defensive measures 10 he
taken, bur these should I've limited TO
certain fixed localities and reduce. to
minimum in favor of the far more
moh''e and effective defense provided
by the airplane."

Continuing his recommendations,

tinuing aircraft building program
with funds to put new equipment in

activities upon the amounts of fly

He also asked removal of the attack
group from Kelly Field. San Antonio,

authorization of Panama flight project;
provision for annual combined air

There's a Thanksgiving message
that Calvin Coolidge would probably

that kind of a presidential proclama-

that concerns every man. woman and

with bread. The President is an ar
