DRUG
WINS CONTEST

John Kepley and his Shirer Drug
nine sllrmounted one more obstacle
last night in their race for the
night league bunting when they
took the measure of the Coca Cola
team, ia in a game that was mark
ed by the excellent pitching of Ed
die Beechey and heavy hitting on
the part of his teammates.
Showing everything that a first
class team should possess, the drug
gists who got away to a slow start
soon had everything under control
and proceeded to sew up the game
After the first two innings during
which the losers had scored three
of their runs, Beechey had the op-
position at his mercy and set down
the Coca Cola heavy artillery in ad-
mirable fashion.
Jepway led the Shirer batsmen
with four hits and walk in five
trips to the plate. Hamilton, sub
bing for Holcomb at first, played
an excellent defensive game and
contributed a home run for the los
ers.
Maggios Fat Boys and the Stud
ebakers will play tonight in a game
which had been postponed from
Monday on account of wet grounds.

United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 18. - Betting
odds against New York winning the
American League pennant length
ened from 2-5 10 l-2, and Pittsburgh
replaced Chicago as choice for the
National flag in the mid-May quo
tationS announced today by Jack
Doyle, veteran Broadway betting
commissioner.
The odds against the Pirates fin
iShing first are still 8-5, the same
as in the preseason quotations, but
Chicago dropped from choice at
Us to a second best tie with st.
Louis at 81. The Cards previous
ly had been 5-1 at third best.
Washington, which had been in
a second best tie with Philadelphia
on the American list at 81. is
shortened to 2-1, while the Athle-
tics figures are heightened TO Al.
Despite Cleveland S excellent early
season showing, Doyle still ranks
the Indians below Connie Mack S
outfit, although he tightened Cleve-
lands chances from ISL to 6-1.
The most notable change on
either list was the drastic reduc-
ton of the long shot against the
Boston Red Sox from 500-1 to col,
reflecting the growing respect for
the Sox under their new and veal
thy owner. Tom Yawkey.
Doyle, the bespectacled little r.
ishman who has been prominent
in wagering for some 40 years, ex-
planned that he was a couple of
days late with his quotations be-
cause he had been i'll physically
and mentally
He said, I'm sure I'd have re-
covered sooner from a little oper-
alton if it hadn t been for my wor-
ry over a mistake I made in Offer
ing 20 to l against the Chicago
White Sox finishing in third place
in my preseason quotations. I
accepted so many bets at those odds
that I can't sleep nights thinking
what III happen if any of the lead
ing teams weaken and the White
Sox keep moving along at their
present clip"

IN
THIRD PLACE

NEW YORK, May 18. DIP
Brooklyn is back in third place in
the National league standing, the
same position where it finished last
season, and the Dodgers appear
ready to enter the pennant fight
full blast.
Max Carey's outfit showed a no.
ticeable improvement recently, win
ming five of its last six games, not
counting Its tie with Cincinnati.
Before this squirt 1t seemed out of
stride, woefully weak in hitting, and
its field play was the worst in the
league. The pitching was fair.
That the Dodgers have develop
ed fighting spirit was demonstrated
again yesterday when they staged
their third straight winning ninth
inning rally, making it two in a
row over st. Louis, 5 to 2.
This enabled Brooklyn to rise
from second division past the Cards
and Cincinnati who were left in a
fourth place tie.
Pittsburgh strengthened its grip
on the league lead by taking its
third straight game from the Phil
lies, 6 to 4. Pitcher John Berly OF
the Phillies broke his right leg slid
ing home in the third inning.

berg's single after Page had pur-
posely walked Galan. Only a spec

winning in the seventh. Davis had
the better of the argument through
out, checking the stars with seven

At the Children's Table
BY MARY HOPE NORRIS,
Founder, Mothers Radio Round Table

Oatmeal, hominy grits, rice, macca-
roni and corn meal keep well in cold
weather. Having these on hand in bulk
is a great incentive to serve a different
hot breakfast cereal each morning.
Every one likes macaroni and cheese
an ideal combination-but do you look
at the weight on the package of maca-
roni you buy? They look very much
alike, yet somewhere on the package
will be the note Net weight, 8 Cor 81
ounces" BY looking you may save an
ounce. Not saving much, you will say.
Perhaps not on this one item, but
establishing this habit will mean a
great saving on your entire food budget.
Here is simple dessert that creates
energy drown sugar., promotes growth
(gelatin) and builds plumpness (rice
and butter):
Butterscotch Rice Pudding g.-one-
third cupful of rice, two tablespoonfuls
of butter, one level tablespoonful of
gelatin, three cupfuls of milk, one cup
full of brown sugar, one-quarter tea
spoonful salt. Wash rice and cook
until nearly tender in a double boiler
with two cupfuls of scalded milk and
one-quarter teaspoonful of salt. Mean
time cook together in shallow pan one
cupful of brown sugar and two table,
spoonfuls of butter until 1t gets dark
brown, but don't burn it. Add this to
the rice and milk and finish cooking
until the rice is tender and the cara
mel melted. Soak gelatin In one-half
cupful cold water until soft and dis
solve In one cupful hot milk. Strain
this into the cooked rice mixture and
turn into cold wet mold.

There really are only two kinds of

If we learn the general method Of

easy to follow all recipes. When max

contributing its share of moisture to
the dough, it remains in tiny pieces
which melt only in the heat of the
oven and produce f1akiness.
Use butter when making white cake;
other fats may be substituted with

cranberry recipes has gradually grown
from the two standard recipes for Jelly
and sauce to a whole mass of material,
which uses this flavorful berry for some
purpose for every course.
We may begin a meal with a cram
berry juice cocktail or with fruit cup
to which cranberry Juice and sometimes
few of the preserved berries are added,
We may use them with our meat as q
spiced relish If we can divorce this
course for a moment from the usual
jelly or sauce. The other day / tasted
cranberries used in a novel way. They
were combined with a stuf1ng made of
cracker crumbs and used with a crown
roast Of pork.
We may mince few of the raw ber-
ries and add them to French dressing
for the sake of their color and tang, If
you like jellied salads for luncheon, you
may use the cooked berries with celery
and onion with a gelatin foundation
favored with tarragon vinegar. The
addition Of diced celery to the ordinary
recipe for cranberry jelly is an inter-
esting novelty.
When 1t comes to dessert, there are
innumerable cranberry dishes. Some one
has written to ask me to repeat the
recipe for cranberry tapioca pudding.
There Is no more attractive desert than
this pudding with whipped cream con-
trasting in color. There are several
ways of using cranberries in hot pud-
dings, steamed with a baking powder
mixture or with pudding Of the suet
type, where cranberries replace the
rasins. There Is, of course, the famous

board, as too much -four will make the
cookies too dry and stiff Fruit cookies
should be kept in tight container for
a few days before serving. The fruit
flavor then has a chance to season the
cookies. The colder pastry is when 1t
goes in the oven, the fakier it will be.
The oven should be hot enough to start
it rising quickly. then the heat reduced
for the remainder of the time in order
that the filling may be thoroughly
cooked.
Apricot Glaze.
Wash thoroughly, then soak one
fourth pound of dried apricots in one
cupful of water for IL hours, then drain,
retaining the water. Remove the skins
and return to the water. Cook for Is
minutes. Press the apricots through a
sieve add one-fourth cupful of sugar
and mix thoroughly. Put in a glass
jar and keep in a cool place. When
ready for use, dilute with water to the
consistency to brush. Brush this over
fruit cakes and tarts to give a glaze.
This glaze will keep for two weeks
This may be used as a filling for tarts
also.
Pastry for Pies.
Pie pastry will keep in the refrigera-
tor covered with wax paper for two or
three days or even longer in cold
weather. This improves the crust and
makes it easily handled and faky.
Never grease a pie plate A good
pastry. greases its own tin. Be sure and
pas the s,re past fot in I'll the pie pan loosely
at the sides and at the bottom. The
top crust must be perforated to allow
the steam to escape. If the edge of the
lover crust is moistened with cold wa
ter, the top crust, when pressed lightly
into it, will stick together better. To
prevent the lower crust from becoming
soggy, either sift little dry -four over
the bottom crust or brush it with an
unbeaten egg white.
When you are baking the empty shell
for an open pie, be very careful not to
stretch the pastry as you lay it over
the pan. Ease it in gently and trim
1t off little beyond the edge of the
pan to allow for shrinkage. Prick the
bottom and side with fork SO that it
will not blister while baking.
Instead Of heating the oven to brown
meringue on pie or pudding, heat an
iron skillet very hot and turn it over
the meringue quickly. In about three
minutes the meringue will be as beau
tifully brown as If it had been put in
the oven.
You will find that the drudgery in
preparing stewed pumpkin for pies may
be avoided by running the pumpkin
through a food chopper instead of
pressing it through colander. In this
way much time is saved and the
pumpkin is in just as good condition
for use, if not better.
Place baked pies on a cake cooler
and allow to stand on it until they are
cool. This prevents a soggy lower
crust.

with fat should be allowed to stand In
their tins for five minutes after re-
moving from the oven. Always grease
tanning shortening. Use fat without
salt for this purpose, as the salt tends
TO stick to the pan, making 1t difficult
to get the cake out without breaking.
Never grease pans for sponge cakes
OF any kind. Use paper that has never
been creased for sponge cakes. 1t gives
the cake q better chance TO hold onto
the side of the pan and thus be a
lighter cake.
The method of mixing cakes without
shortening starts by separating the
yolks from he whites of the eggs. To
make sponge cakes, egg yolks should
be beaten until. thick, then the sugar
added gradually, and lastly the beaten
whites, -four and f1avoring are folded in.
Sponge and angel cakes require slower
oven than cakes made with shortening,
depending upon the depth of the pan
out fat, or sponge cakes of any kind,
should be turned upside down on a
cake cooler the minute it is removed
from the oven. Let it remain in this
position until it is cool, and then re-
move from the pan. This prevents the
cake from shrinking and really stretches
it little.
Cake Icings.
Beat cake batter about three minutes
after all the ingredients are in. Rich
cakes require longer beating than plain
cakes. An oven thermometer should be
used for making any kind of cake. An
accurate temperature is next in impor-
tance to careful measurements Of the

Special Rich Pastry.
When you make rich pastry use the
smallest amount of liquid that will hold
the ingredients together, then handle
1t quickly and gently. Air must be
worked into pastry, not forced out of
1t, for when the heat Of the oven is ap-
piled the air will expand and make a
light. air-filled crust. When adding
liquid always cut it into one part and
then in another part before combining
the whole. In this way it is handled
very little.
