NEW YORK, Aug. 20-Ruth, Til den and Dempsey, probably the greatest trio that ever performed simultaneously, soon will be known merely as heroes of the past.
 Dempsey is through, Tilden may be in the closing campaign of his active career and the Babe is near ing that period when he will see more bench duty and less daily action.
 When this championship trio was at it's height one or the other was splashed before the public all of the time
 Think of 1921l
 Here was Dempsey, then in his best seeking form, knocking Car pentier kicking in four rounds.
 Ruth, after having astonished sportsdom wit hhis 54 homers in 1920, pounded out 59 for a new all- time record
 AllQ DE Dl1l 1lNCll Wdo oWCCPllle5 everything before him in tennis. He was winning the second of six straight national singles titles and had just started his great run of 13 consecutive Davis Cup chal- lenge round singles.
 That was Ruth, Tilden and Dempsey, all champions in 1921.
 Today;
 Dempsey, at 34, still yearns to fight again but he wouldn't have a chance to show as the old Demp- sey did.
 Ruth, at 35, is carrying on but with only part of the sensational form that stamped him as the king of sluggers.
 Tilden, at 36, still outranks all but few who have effectively bar rcd his way to the heights in in- ternational play. There may be anoher trio be- fore the sports world to equal the spectacular performances of Ruth, Tilden Id Dempsey Anyway their equal is not yet in sight.

AIR EFFICIENCY
DEPENDS ON
THYROID

BALTIMORE, Oct. 30.-The
efficiency of an airpIane pilot
depends on his thyroid condi'
tion. Persons with a hyper
thyroid secretion have no place
in aviation.
This, with results of research
along the same line. was explained
yesterday by DR.. Leon Asher. pro
fessor of physiology at the UniVer.
sity OF Berne, Switzerland.
DR.. Asher. in a lecture on RE
cent Advances in Thyroid Physi-
ology,' given before the Biological
Society Of the School of Medicine
of the University of Maryland, out.
lined the important field that thy
roid pathology and research are
destined to play in aeronautics.
Pressure Too Great
He pointed out the relationship
between the thyroid gland and the
utilization of oxygen in breathing
as the basis for his statem~nt re-
garding the thyroid condition as an
indicator of aeronautic. ability.
He found in experiments in the
physiological laboratory at Berne,
he said, that animals with more
than normal thyroid secretion re.
Quire an excessive amount of oxy-
gen. Because of this fact they are
not able to endure low atmospheric
pressure and an atmosphere of low

high attitudes.

COMPLA AIN
Of LONG
DELAY

TAKOMA PARK, Nd, Oct.
S0.-According to members OF
the Takoma Park Town Coun-
ell a public meeting will be
called shortly to consider
taking drastic measures to
compel the District Commls-
sioners to eliminate at an early
date the grade crossing at
Chestnut Street, where two
Washington women met death
last Saturday night.
Although a coroner's jury TINS
week fixed the blame for the accl-
dent upon the negligence or the
driver of the car. it advised tne
installation of additional safety
devices at the crossing and citizens
Of Takoma assert that the fatality
could have been averted had tne
Commissioners acted promptly III
eliminating the dangerous grace
crossing.
Provided in 1891 Budget
The 1881 budget for the District
includes an item providing for the
elimination of the crossing. Fern
street is to be cut through ana
yiaduct constructed over the Balu-
more and Ohio railroad tracks at
this point.
It is being argued that the PRO
1ect. provided for in the act OF 1871,
could easily have been carried out
before the recent tragedy. Accord
ing to a town official. Commissioner
Sidney Talliaferro. in letter dated
July IS. 1928 stated that lit was

mate all grade crossings"

sion and the Maryland Senator'S ana
Representatives have interested
themselves in the matter, but as YET
no action has been taken in the mat
ter.
Four Recent Deaths
Rumors are h%l% cirrnlated to the
effect that a Senatorial investigation
NAV be demanded seeking all the CIR
cumstances connected with the accl-
dent last week and making particu'
lar inquiry into the alleged delay OF
the District Commissioners in elimi-
mating the crossing.
This is the fourth fatality to oc-
@rr at the above crossing in recent
years. About three years ago a cross
lng watchman lost his life when he
went to the rescue of a youth who
had wandered onto the railroad
tracks. The lad was also killed. An.
other near-fatality was averted last
year when. several school children
narrowly escaped being run down by
a north-bound train.
