NAVY MAY RULE
VIRGIN ISLANDS

One possible solution of the Vir.
gin Islands controversy which is
embarrassing President Roosevelt
and the New Deal was being spec.
ulated on here today.
It was, briefly, that the islands
be turned over to the Navy to gov.

The basis for this speculation
conferred around the fact the Vir-
gin Islands originally were bought
from Denmark as a naval coaling
base and observation outpost to
protect the Panama Canal. It is
of no further value as a coaling
station, since oil has become the
accepted fuel. but the Navy would

Z D. c. WOMEN
DEVOTE LIVES
To CLINIC
BY ELIZABETH OLDFIELD

BY ELIZABETH OLDFIELD
If you feel abused because you
have to work in this heat instead
of lounging on the beach or fish
ing in mountain streams, consider
the case Of Miss Lucie Sharp and
Mrs. Irving Brotman.
These two members of Wash
ington's younger set can afford
to lounge or fish. Instead, they
are working without compensation
save that of knowing they are
helping others less fortunate than
themselves.
From 10 to S on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday Miss
Sharp, who lives with her father,
DR.. George Sharp, in the 5000
block Highland Pl. N. W., works
in the receiving room Of the
George washington University
clinic.
She registers patients, weighs
them, files cards and performs
other tasks so essential in a busy
clinic.
Works With Test
Trim and cool in a simple pink
linen frock, with it's huge white
collar and cuffs, this 22-year-old
girl works with a zest that is de
lightful to behold.
She's pretty, with light brown
hair that falls in soft, natural
curls about her neck, large brown
eyes, a pert little turned-up nose
and a soft complexion, free Of
rouge.
She seems to float about that
crowded clinic on winged feet.
Her smiles fall with gay impair
TALLY on white and black alike.
She has special gentle smile for
the little old ladies as she helps
them onto the scales.
She answered questions readily
as she jotted notes on a card. She
did two or three things at a time
without turning a hair. The re-
porter remarked that she seemed
to enjoy her work. She responded
quickly:
Goa do! I've been here
seven months and 1 love it! I'm
going to be a nurse. I'm to enter

I pointed to the Red Cross pin
at her slim throat.
"That? oh! I'm a volunteer
Of the Home Nursing Service.
It's a branch of the Red Cross.

know"
Clinic Needs Help
Mrs. Brotman, who works in the
psychiatric clinic, was expected
any minute, they said. I finally
reached her by telephone at her
home in the Westchester Apart
ments. She said:
ooh, I'm so glad you are in
terested in the clinic! We need
help so badly. They haven't
enough money for nurses, you
know, so the social workers do
what they can.

CHICAGO CUBS NOW WORK ON CARDS AS| GIANTS TAKE FLOP
Grimms Won IS Straight for 1885 RecOrd-Wes
 FerrelI'S Hit Wins
BY HENRY SUPER United Press Stan Correspondent

(Un1te0 FfeSS Stan COrreSpOn0ent)
 New York, Sept. 19.-(UP)-A 1885 major league record, IS con- secutive victories, was inscribed in baseball's record books to-day and chances are that 1t still will be there at the end of the season. unless the Chicago Cubs extend 1t further.
 Charley Grimm's "kid team" shattered the 14-straight mark set in July by the St. Louis Cardinals when they whipped the New York Giants yesterday for the third time in as many starts. The Cubs now boast the longest streak in their league since 1924 when Brooklyn won 15. The defeat marked the virtual passing of the Giants from the National league picture-the second successive time they have been knocked out of the pennant race in September.
 The modern record of 26 straight victories established by the Giants in 1916, is beyond the Cubs grasp because they have only eight games to play. But, in turn, their new record practically is be- yond the reach of any other major league team as far as 1885 is con- cerned.
 The Giants have Is games left and, if they halt the Cubs in the final game of their series to-day, can equal 1t by winning their re- maining IA. The Philadelphia Athletics also have Is left. The Cleveland Indians, who have won their last six, have 10 left in which to do as well as Chicago. The others are out of the running. Barring a complete breakdown in the next week and a half, the Cubs are the likeliest team to op- pose Detroit in the world series. Although only 2h games ahead of St. Louis, the Cubs have an easier path toward the pennant because they have won more and have few CT left to play than the world champions.
 The Cubs have only eight games left-five of them with St. Louis. If they win only four more, the Cards will have to take eight of their remaining II to tie and g to ! win. The Giants, 6k games be- 1 hind Chicago, need IA of IS to tie, and 15 to win.
 Charley Root, 35-year old right handler who won only four 1894 games, pitched the Cubs to their | record as the Giants were defeat ed, 15-2. The Cards, trailing 3-2 going into the seventh, defeated Brooklyn, 6-3. Paul Dean relieved Wild Bill Hallahan at the start of the eighth, bringing the Dean brothers total appearances to 15 in the last IS games. Pittsburgh defeated Boston, 5-2, and Cincin- nati beat Philadelphia, 6-5.
