DENTISTS PAIN
KILLER HAILED
BY HYC|ENISTS
DeSensitizer May Not Be in
General Use for Weeks,
However.
BY JANE STAFFORD
Science Service Medical Writer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Reliev-
ing US of much of the fear we all
have In going to our dentists, a
colorless liquid mixture of three well
known chemicals, alcohol ether ana
thymol, promises to usher in an era
OF smiles at the buzz of the dental
drill. But it is expected to take
weeks to bring about its general
use.
Health authorities expect effective
aid for mouth hygiene from the de-
sensitizer that DR.. Leroy L. Hart
man, Columbia University dental
professor, has announced as a gift
OF science to the suffering world.
1t may take days and weeks for
the practicing dentist to be in a
position to use the new material.
While DR.. Hartman has used the de-
sensitizer upon 500 volunteer pa
tients experimentally, hundreds of
other dentists will wish to try it
cautiously before they use it in their
daily practice
Test and Retest Is Rule
Test and retest will be the rule.
Any pharmacist can make the new
mixture following the simple direc-
tons given By DR.. Hartman: Parts
by weight, thymol, IL parts; ethyl
alcohol, l part; sulphuric ether, 2
parts. But the public is warned
not to co inexpert experimenting.
Carries, or tooth decay, is one of
the most widespread scourges of
mankind Whatever may be it's
cause, dentists are agreed that al
though 1t can not yet be prevented
entirely, it can be checked by fire.
quent examination of the teeth and
prompt attention to cavities or de-
cay spots. DR.. Hartman's solution
should be great aid in stopping the
ravages of this widespread disease,
If because of it the dread of having
a tooth filled is removed.
Explains Possible Action
DR.. Hartman explained the posi-
BILE action of the new pain-killer as
follows:
Dentin, the part of the tooth Just
below the enamel, is where it hurts
when the dentists drills. This Gen.
tin, DR.. Hartman maintains, must
contain lipoids which transmit sem
sation in and through the dentin.
Further research may reveal minute
nerves in the dentin, with lipoids in
their sheatS as found in other parts
of the body. Lipoids are fatlike
substances soluble in ether or al
cohol. The alcohol and ether in DR..
Hartman's preparation serve there
fore to dissolve the lipoids of the
dentin.
Then the thymol of the solution
enters the picture, Thymol, used
medically as an antiseptic, COM
bines chemically with the lipoids.
In this chemical reaction the lipoid
Of the detin is so changed that it no
longer conveys pain sensations. The
thymol- lipoid reaction must be of
the reversible type so that the tooth
dentin is restored to its original con-
dition without injury.

Defends
Title Against
Kiri|enk0

Cliff Olsen tonight will make his
first defense of the wrestling
championship he won here recent
ly when he meets Matros Kiri-
lenko, former Russian CossaCk, in
the main match of Joe Turner's
weekly mat program at the Arena:
The Swedish grappler gained
matdom's pinnacle when he was
awarded a victory over YVon
Robert, then champion, Robert be-
ing forced to retire when he broke
his right leg.
Accepts Diadem
At the time Olsen tried to evade
taxing the crown, feeling he had
not defeated Robert legitimately.
Pressed by mat leaders he &C
cepted the diadem and is eager to
show washington fans he is no
freak champion.
Olsen has been wrestling pro-
fessionally since 1882, quitting the
simon pure ranks just before the
Olympic games. Prior to that he
had wrestled for the University
of Minnesota. His biggest thrill
was his match with Jim Londos
in Madison Square Garden. Six
minutes before the one-hour time
limit match was to end the Swede
dislocated his arm and Londos
retained his title.
Russia's Strong Man
Had not the Russian peasantry
revolted against the czar, it is
doubtful that Matros Klrilenko
would ever have become one OF
the outstanding wreStlerS in the
United States. Kirilenko was
Russia's strong man prior to the
revolution. He fought for the
white army against the reds, flee
ing his native land when the pro
letariat was victorious.

International News Service Sports Writer
NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-Fifteen
years ago, almost to the day, a club
owner stopped on his way into the
Joint meeting of baseballs major
leagues and pitched nickels with
the reporters-a morbid touch, in
the light of later developments.
When he and the others came out,
it was to leave behind the abject
figure of a beaten, pathetic man.
Thus the finish Of the late Byron
Bancroft johnson, who had been
told that he was through as chair
man of the old National Commits
sion.
Today, the major leagues will
Join again in a general meeting
here and the issue is almost as
vital now as it was all those long
years ago, but there, beyond the
fact that the result may be much
the same, the parallel briskly
ends. If there is any telling" to be
done today, Judge K. M. Lands
will do it.
He might even resign and quite
probably his resignation would be
accepted, but if anybody is likely
to look abject or beaten this time,
it will be baseball. 1t will be tao
lily admitting that it's unprepared

probation of its own laws.
The issue, practically the first
of any Importance to confront
Lands in Is years, revolves
around the strange case of Pitcher
Bob Feller-and complications are
likely to ensue, no matter how the
judge calls his dice.
Counter to PrecedentS
If he decides in favor Of the
Cleveland club, which owned"
the 17-year-old aSt Sc asor1-
allegedly contrary to baseball law
the Judge will be running coun-
ter to all and any precedents he
has ever set. If he declares the
young man is the property of no
one and, therefore, free agent,
baseball, I am reliably informed,
will revolt.
It will decline to accept either
the edict or its consequences,
with the result that it's quite
tenable that the judge will tender
his resignation. A few years ago,
that would have scared them off,
but now they think they're in the
clear and no longer need this Of
ficial Shirt-front with which to
dazzle the public. Briefly. they're
of a mind to accept if the judge
wants to lay his contract on the
table.
He used to draw $65, 1000 a year,
but it was understood he suffered
a voluntary incision some time
ago, anyhow, it's major money

Cleveland; or he, the judge, might

young man the necessary period

baseball law.
