PORTLAND, Greg, September 1.-THE
split" season Of the Pacific Coast Base
Ball League is expected by its president,
larry A. Williams, to be a league fixture
which eventually will be adopted by all
minor leagues, he said, in statement
released here yesterday.
President Williams also believes the
split season would prove advantageous
10 major leagues because teams which
drop out of the race early in the majors
usually suffer heavy financial Losses"
But he continued:
THE world series perhaps precludes
the possibility of split season in the
majors, although it would help the
16 clubs financially, whereas the world
series benefits but 2. After all, the split
season is simply two seasons instead of
one and with an ample bonus for which
to play, defies. in results, the most
censorious critics.
THE split season contains greater
element of fairness than the straight
away schedule, which often results in
a drab and dragging race.

A skinny but important margin was
held today by the Dixie Pigs In the ur1-
limited class of the Capital City League
following 3-to-2 triumph over the
Miller Agtecs. A reversal of the score
would have put the Aztecs on top OF the
standings.
In another torrid game the st. Jo-
seph's club defeated the Auths, 10 to
Z. in IL innings and this victory put the
st. Joes in second place, just ahead OF
the Miller Aztecs.
BY beating the Brentwood Hawks. 2 to
1, the National Press Building Cardinals
moved to even terms for fourth place
with the Auths. Z
Blackie Adair was the big shot Of the
Dixie Pig victory. He let the enemy
down with four hits. The winning run
was driven over by Dove in the seventh.
Almost everybody socked the ball in
the st. Joseph-Auth contest, but the
Saints hit it harder and oftener, with
Freschi leading the way. He got four
bingles and one was a homer.

of treatment. Some years ago it
was suggested that the nerves of
the sympathetic nervous system,
which control the contraction and
relaxation of the blood vessels,
might be cut apart and in this way
permit free circulation of the blood
to the extremities affected by Ray
naud's disease.
Recently an operation was per-
formed on patient with this con-
dition in which the nerve roots
were removed. In the hand on the
side on which the nerve roots were
removed, the temperature was in
creased and the circulation was i'm
proved.
The benefit was SO great follow
ing the operation on the one side
that the patient asked voluntarily
for an operation on the other side,
with similar good result.
More than three months after the
operation the results were still
maintained. The procedure is one
of the most difficult known to mod
ern surgery, but the results so strik-
ing as to cause the Investigators to
behave that the surgical control of
this disease is an accomplished fact.
One OF the significant observations
of the current year has been the
establishment of the fact that life
expectancy after forty years of age
has decreased by one year during
the last quarter century.
The conditions which carry men
off after middle age are those asso-
