If Salads Skip, Knives Are 0kay,
 Dean Tells Men

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 1. - Should a man sit on the right or left of a woman in taxi?
 Tn Europe, it would be correct to sit on the left, but in the United States it would be perfectly proper to sit at either the right or left.
 Most of the men students at the University of Pittsburgh knew that, Lut just to make certain of it. Vim cent w, Laniear. Dean of Men, wrote and distributed. guide on manners entitled, What Every Man Should Know"
 Among the rules Lanfear laid down for every gentlemen were:
 No man should keep a pipe, cigar or cigaret in his mouth when he lifts his hat to a woman.
 When you enter an office, place your hat in an inconspicuous place and remember where.
 It is more embarrassing to find yourself in dinner coat and black tie when your host is wearing in formal clothes than to wear infor- nal clothes when your host is dressed formally.
 If your salad shows signs of skid ding, by all means cut it with your knife

 Dv P<P,

When the New York Giants start ed their first swing through the western loop, Dashing Dick Barte!l was showing the way to home-run hitters of both leagues. Bartell had accounted for eight round-trip- pers-the exact total he made all last season.
 The National League boasts a flock of home-run producers-Mel Ott, Wally Berger, Dicky Medwick, Chuck Klein, to name few-but the 146-pound Giant shortstop had led 'em all the first month of the race.
 The short left-field fence at the Polo Grounds has been Bartelfs favorite shooting gallery ever since he joined the New York Club. Last year he made the distake of trying to pull all of his drives into the stands. The pitchers soon caught on with the result that he was fair game for their curves.
 Now it's different. Bartell in- sists that he does not have his sights trained on left-field every time he takes a cut. He concentrates on meeting the ball squarely, hoping it will drop safe. If the ball finds it's way into the stands. so much the better. If Dick follows the plan through the pennant race he will have bumper crop of homers
 All the to-do about Carl Hubbell's pitching records has shunted Bar tell to the background. The fine work he has been doing in the field as well as at the plate has not come in for the attention he de- serves.

(By Asso oiatcd Press)

The long battered and beaten Oakland team has risen to new heights through an open revolt and timely aid of a pitcher and third baseman who hurried to the coast from the Yankees.
 Oakland battered the way out of the cellar Monday by winning the first doubleheader of the season rom the leading San Francisco cam.
 The Miss ems went to the cellar IS Portland won the crucial series.
 Seattle fell back to customary de- feat, losing the first of a double header and taking the second game by hair.

OAKLAND. Cal. June 1. A small fortress, into which one-way chutes pour some $15,000 a day, protects receipts of the giant San Francisco Oakland Bay bridge.
 So far the toll gate has not at tracted holdup men, and Captain M. L. Silvey, in charge of col- lectors, expects no trouble in the future-not if the crooks scout the situation first
 Every one of the 40 or 50 men normally on duty is armed" he explained. We have cur own target range and man who can't shoot can't work here.
 Each collector gets only S200 for change-not a big haul. When he finishes his shift he sacks his money and it gees through a one way door to the counting room.
 That room is lined with triple armor and it would take a cannon tc pierce it. The windows are glass nearly two inch es thick. They have small port ho,es, So we can shoot out without being fired on.'
 In the daytime, when the largest sums are on hand, traffic is so heavy that any interruption would create bad traffic jam In the cpinlon of officers, this would itself trap a holdup gang.

Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, June 16,-Steels and
motors led a quiet stock market de-
cline in late trading today.
Discouraged by fears protracted
strikes in the steel industry would dull
the edge Of industry recovery, traders
allowed prices to sink fractions to
around 2 points.
Early in the session a handful Of
selected issues attempted a mild ad-
vance, but their failure to follow
through served to cut the entire list
from price moorings, brokers said.
Technical analysts stressed, however.
that declines were registered on lin
tied volume. Transactions approx
mated 100000 shares.
Issues which lacked friends were
United States Steel, Bethlehem, Gen.
eral Motors, Chrysler, Yellow Truck,
United States Rubber, Montgomery
Ward, Woolworth, International Har-
vester. Deere, Boeing, Western Union,
North American, Anaconda, Kenne-
colt, American Smelling, Continental
Oil, Westinghouse, Du Pont, Allied
Chemical, Pullman, Atlantic Coast
Line, Santa Fe, New York Central,
Southern Pacific, Baltimore g. Ohio.
Southern Railway, Johns Manville.
Air Reduction and Standard Brands.
New York Steam preferred issues
jumped briskly in late dealings.
Resistant stocks were Sears Roe
buck, Seaboard Oil, Consolidated
Edison, Electric Power & Light, Stand
ard Oil of New Jersey. Texas Corp,
General Electric and Lone Star Ce-
ment.
The irregular slump of share prices
during the past three months has
thrown the Wall Street spotlight on
adverse phases of the trade, industrial
and financial outlook, observers said.
Nevertheless, in the opinion Of some,
the long-pull trend is bullish. Those
who took this point of view cited the
following factors which have been
thrust into the background by strikes:
l. There is still depression
created deficit in capital goods. 2.
The prospect for European peace has
improved. 3. The unemployment
problem is less troublesome. 4. In
dustries unaffected by strikes in many
cases are doing better than in the first
quarter. 5. Farm and industrial pur-
chasing power Is higher.

was fortunate, as North would not
have rebid.
The opening lead was the single
ton heart, and West read it
Alright, after his Ace had taken the
trick and declarer had followed
suit. East ruffed low heart, u.s.
ing his 10, which marked him with
either holding the lone @ or no
more trumps. The third lead was
East's j of diamonds. Dummy's
Ace won. Three leads of trumps
followed, pulling all outstanding
spades and leaving declarer and
dummy each one spade.
The K Of hearts was taken, then
the 10 of clubs was led through
East. He played the j. Dummys
Q won. Declarer discarded his last
diamond on dummy's Q of hearts.
Dummy's last diamond was led and
ruffed by declarer. Again North
led club through East. That
player covered the lead, forcing
dummy's Ace to be played. The
third lead of clubs had to be given
East, making the third and last de-
fensive trick. The thirteenth trick
was won with dummy's last trump.
l am a firm believer in forward
bidding. It costs very little to go
down a couple of undoubled tricks
when not vulnerable, or to go down
a single trick when vulnerable. 1t
is very expensive to lose games
through timidity in bidding. I
have noticed that the players who
win most consistently are strong
bidders. Weak bidders are con-
slant losers. So are reckless OF
unthinking bidders. For the past
25 years I have played the game
in bridge clubs. During that Pc
riod l have had only one year in
which l lost more points than
won That experience should be
worth something.

like jelly on a fiat plate and the
patient coughs on it. The whoop-
ing cough germs grow on the me-
dunn in metallic looking colonies,
making it appear as if pinch of
mercury had been sprayed on it.
If no such colonies appear, the pa
tent is no longer spreading the dis
ease and can be released.
Quick Diagnosis Developed
Along the same line, a quick
method has been developed of Gull
turing diphtheria bacilli so that
growth occurs in eight hours. This
allows of an earlier administration
of antitoxin in doubtful cases.
A new food poisoning germ has
been isolated.
One of the most astonishing
tests of recent years is the Asch-
heim-Zondek method of the early
determination of pregnancy. AS
soon as pregnancy begins the wom-
an develops a changed secretion in
her body which is cast out in great
amounts in the urine. When some
of this urine is injected into an
undeveloped female animal, it rap
idly becomes mature. By modifi-
cation of this, called after Fried
man, the test has been made more
accurate, so that prediction of
blessed event can be made without
benefit of Walter Winchell many
months before that eminent detec-
tive finds out.
Another test which Is more and
more coming into prominence is
the blood sedimentation test. In
certain conditions the red blood
corpuscles seem to be loaded with
a heavier chemical content than
normal. When mixed in a test
tube of salt solution, they fall to
the bottom much more rapidly
than normal. This seems to occur
in cases of cancer and tubercu-
losis, and while it is not absolutely
final, it gives a valuable hint when
the cancer is not on the surface OF
the body.
Such deyelopmentS-and this is
only very partial list of them
will give the average man an Idea
of the immensely complex work
which goes on in even the most
average and commonplace medical
practice.
