Drive of BUGS
Halted by
Giants
By HOMER METZ

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Win,
lose or draw in the hectic Ma.
tional League pennant drive, Bill
Terry is determined upon one
thing. No one is going to accuse
his New York Giants of lacking
heart.
The taciturn leader made this
clear in two ways in Pittsburgh
yesterday.
Before his club took the field
against the rampaging buccaneers
at Forbes Field, Terry called sew
eral of the 1Iew York correspond
ents travelling with the team, to
his side and said:
MAYBE we're going to lose the
pennant and maybe we're not,
but come what may we're going
to be out there swinging with
all we've got from now until
the end of the season."
With this off his chest, Terry
went onto the field and led the
Giants to a brilliant 3-to-1 VIC
tory over the Pirates, whose fond
est hope is to displace the New
Workers. in third place.
Carl Hubbell, ace Of the Giants
staff, took the mound and dld a
superb Job, holding the Pirates to
six hits. Red Lucas opposed him
and did well until the sixth IN
ming when two rouSing triples by
Travis Jackson and Terry himself
decided the issue.
The victory failed to get the
Giants out of the mire OF third
place, but it was comforting to
the Terrymen's rooterS neVerthe-
less.
The Chicago Cubs had their
advantage over the Giants paired
to a single game when they were
rained out of scheduled contest
with the Boston Braves.
The league-leading st. Louis
Cardinals split twin bill with
the Philadelphia Quakers and as
a result remained 2R games
ahead of the Cubs and 372 ahead
of the Giants.
Dizzy Dean hurled the Cards to
an easy 11.to-0 victory in the
opener, but the Phillies took adj
vantage of the breaks" to cop
the nightcap, 4 to 2. Five hurlers
appeared on the mound for the
Cards, HeusSer, HaineS, Hallahan,
Walker and Paul Dean, despite
the fact that the Phillies only CO..
lected four hits. Dizzy Deans
victory was his twenty-fifth Of the
season.
Dodgers Win Pair
The Brooklyn Dodgers surprised
everyone by taking two games
from the Cincinnati Reds, 8 to 4,
and to 4. George Earnshaw
flashed much Of his old-time form
to retire is consecutive batters in
a relief effort in the opener.
The New York Yankees played
their best ball of the year in win
ming two games from the Cleve-
land Indians, 3 to 2, and 5 to 4.
Lefty Vernon Gomez pitched mas
terfully for the Yanks in the
opener which went 10 innings. Lou
Gehrig hit his twenty-eighth home
run in the second game.
The Boston Red Sox won two
games from the Chicago White
Sox and as q result swept from
fifth to fourth place In the Amer1-
can League standings. Yves Fer
relI hurled Cronin's men to a 60
triumph in the opener while Jack
Wilson, aided by Lefty Grove, gave
the Bostonians their second VIC
tory Of the day by a score Of 7
to S.
The st. Louis Browns climbed
out Of the cellar by beating the
Philadelphia Athletics twice, 8 to
4, and Z to 5.

Canadian Reciprocity.

Trade barriers, erected in recent years
by foreign nations against American
exports, have played their parts in the
continuance of the depression. The re-
Striction of trade has been so severe that
two schools of thought have developed
One contends that American markets
must be sealed tight against foreign
competition and American producers
must conflne themselves almost entirely
to their home markets. The other in
sists that the hope of this country and
of the rest of the world lies in breaking
down trade barriers and the resumption
of international trade on larger scales.
To the latter school belongs Secretary
Cordell Hull of the State Department.
The negotiation of the reciprocal trade
agreement between the United States
and Canada, now made public, must be
regarded as triumph for Mr.. Hull and
his consistent support of increased in
ternational trade through q lowering of
tariff walls and hostile quotas.
1t was to be expected that the inter-
ests and industries in this country af-

More Important Subjects
Than Communism Remain

To the Editor OF The STAR
AS a lifetime resident of Washington,
and being more or less interested in the
education of its children. would like to
know If there is actually any need for
teaching Communism in our public
schools.
When I went to Franklin School a
good many years ago I was taught read
ing, writing. arithmetic and geography,
a great deal of which I still remember.
l have an idea that there are subjects
more important to the children who will
be the citizens of the future than the
knowledge of conditions in Russia.
A good many boys who have an idea
of going TO George Washington or Har-
ward are a little haZy as to who compoSeS
the faculty of the electoral college and
what is its curriculum.
What proportion. I wonder. Of high
school girls and boys are familiar with
our own Government in its various forms
its National Congress. its State Legis-
latures, it's Town Councils and other
matters Of that sort?
1t would seem to me that a thorough
understanding of our own Constitution
is more desirable than a study of the
creedS of Soviet Russia. I may belong
to the horse and buggy age, but I am
sure there are a number of other old
timers who feel the same as do.

An Opportunity to Put
Some of the Idle to Work

To the Editor OF The Star:
To pick up whisky bottles the morning
after they have been deposited the night
before, under sidewalk trees. might
afford employment to more of the jobleSs
than is generally realized
This morning I counted six empty
bottles which had been thus placed on
one side OF one block alone NV poStman
tells me he counted IS on one of his
blocks. One of the bottles was broken
and was likely to be swept into the street
to complete its diabolical mission by
puncturing unSuSpecting auto tires. An
other bottle was on the street. near the
curb, right in front of a parked automo-
bile. I carried 1t to waste paper re-
ceptacle.
No. This did not occur in those sec
tions of our city known as Hells Bottom
or Goat Alley. 1t was in one of our
best residential sections.
All over the city milk bottles. FASH
ioned of heavy glass, are placed under
trees. They are often made targets for
sport by children-broken-an either
left on the sidewalks or thrown into the
streets. Paper is broken into small bits
and scattered, newspapers are thrown
on the sidewalks. orange and banana
peelingS are dropped-a menace to safety
OF pedestrians. Imagine such conditions
In Berlin or any well-ordered city.
No wonder visitors refer to Washington
as dirty city, This disgraceful state
of affairs reveals thoughtless, selfish.
careless, slovenly generation which sadly
needs education in habits of personal
responsibility and in civic consciousness
and conscientiouSneSS.

genetic transmission, we would think
that this inherited change involved
them, but reciprocal crosses have shown
that there is some other mechanism.
| Genetic theory insists that the cells of
different specialized tissues within an
individual carry the same genes, so that
some mechanism other than genes must
assist in the origin and maintenance OF
these differences between tissues.
Until evidence can be secured the
question must remain open. Is the prop
erty that distinguished leukemic cells
from normal cells transmitted from cell
generation to cell generation by means
of changed gene or by some other
mechanism of the cell? This same
question applies to all other mammalian
tumors and it applies to the differences
between specialized tissues within an
individual"
The way of bringing about resistance
also involves great complexities. Its ef-
feet depends upon an interaction deter
mined by the genetic constitution of the
mouse in relation to that of the normal
embryo skin tissue which is introduced
If the mouse and the tranSplanted
normal tissue have the same genetic
constitution resistance may not be in
duced. Moreover, said DR.. MacDowell,
in some combinations of constitutions
the reaction may be completely reversed,
inducing heightened susceptibility in
stead of resistance. The identical nor
NAL tissue that induces resistance when
tranSplanted into hosts of one genetlc
constitution may Strikingly hasten the
growth of leukemic cells in hosts of an
other genetic constitution.
1.-The different results from treatments
with different normal tissues symbolic
the delicacy of the balance in the inter-
action of tissues. Such interactionS may
well play part in the control of tissue
growth in the normal process of devel-
opment. Instead of different trans
planted tissues we have the successive
differentiationS of specialized tissue
which react with the organism as consti-
tuted at the moment and enable it to
depress or stimulate given tissue. With
the advent of each new differentiation
the reaction system of the animal as
whole is modified, so that its power over
the growth of different tissues is con-
stantly changing.
Thus the environment of leukemic
cells is the deciding factor in the out
come. Genetic factors may make this
environment favorable or unfavorable,
but in either case extrinSic factors may
reverse the effect of the genetic factors.
Treatments with normal embryo skin
are among such extrinsic factors, but
the effect of normal tissues as extrinsic
factors depends in turn on their genetic
constitution"
