The ApOcryphal vltarnln !

The Apocryphal vltaEnln A
 Consensus of the authorities on nutrition as summarized in the red book Building Vitality" is that in- sufticient vitan1in A intake Is ac- countable for the following disor- ders: f4 ts. ! Xerophthalmia Cdry, eyes, failure of lacrinnal glands to secrete tears, ulceration of cornea),. nyctalopia (night- -blindness), discrimination or hardening and horny degeneration of ephitheliurn and mucous Ilen1- branes which weakens the first line of defense against infection, espec. ially against cri ("colds" to you, dimwit), sinusitis, ear infections, mastoiditis, adenoids, and degeh- erative change in nervous tissues which may possibly explain nnul- tiple sclerosis, neuralgia and other obscure diseases of the nerves. . Insufficient vitamin A effects the skin-there are likely to be boils, ilmpetigo or excessive dryness with a papular eruption resembling acne but without pustules. As the skin becomes dry and scaly, the hair loses it's liister-indeed vitamin A may do more for @ poor complexion than costly cosmetics can.
 That's a formidable view of vi- tamin A, but I was anxious to give fair report of what good authori- ties believed about 1t at the time l prepared the booklet (i935).
 Today the case for vitamin A seems to be growing weaker and weaker. I am speaking now not as an authority on nutrition = I would mot be an authority on anything, for like to have convictions, and an authority with convictions never gets anywhere while he's alive (vide the life of Pasteur).
 Nearest approach to an actual clinical test of vitarain A deficien- cy we have is the ability of the individual to perceive dim spots of light in a totally darkened room A rough and ready test is ones own realization of diftlculty in seeing in the dark-linaccustomed difaculty But, after all, these are not specific tests, and such night blindness may be due to other causes than nutri- tional deficiency.
 As it seems to me, all of the evil dence available is circumstantial and although I can get quite ser- ious or even morbid about deflcien- cies of vitamins B. G and D and sometimes even c, here in America whenever I read or hear anything about vitamin A, I am conscious ot an impulse to yell "oh, yeah?" In other words, the evidence that any thing else than vitanif1 D is con cerned in the nutritional deficiencies the laboratory investigators ascribe to the apocryphal A is, to rny mind not convincing.
 On the practical side, according to biological assay, fresh milk, evap- orated milk, condensed milk, cheese law or canned peas, raw or canned tomato or tomato juice, eggs, but ter, liver. lettuce, prunes, carrots string beans, etc., are adequate sources of vitamin A even in the quantities of these foods in the av- craze.

condition affects the face, by drop ping mild antiseptic solutions into the eyes and applying antiseptic ointments to the eyelids. These can be recommended by any physician.
 Various attempts have been made to check the advance of this disease by painting the skin with iodine, with silver nitrate, and with other antiseptic solutions, but there is no good evidence that these accom- plish much.
 Sometimes, in fact, they conceal the spread of erysipelas and thus interfere with efforts to control 1t. Most of these antiseptic substances, too, will stain bed linens and cloth ing.
 A new method of treatment is the application of ultraviolet rays. This, in every instance. should be supervised by doctor because rays strong enough to have any effect on an infection may be injurious.
 In very severe cases, blood trans fusions are given, with the idea that new blood will provide antisub- stances capable of attacking the germs which cause the disease.
 A special anti-streptococcus se- rum is available for use in erysip- elas and, in some instances, this antitoxin has seemed to have mar velous effects. In other instances, however, 1t has failed, and some investigators have suggested that the reason for such failure is the inability to get an antitoxin made from the particular streptococcus involved in the individual case.
 Because erysipelas, like other in- fectious diseases, will break down the blood and weaken patients gen. erally, victims of this disease are given plenty of fluids and good, nourishing food. They may be forced to drink at least 10, and as many as 16, glasses of water daily. The food should be of the type that is easily digested without contain ing too much material to be elimi- mated.
 It is not safe to give strong ca- thartics to persons with erysipelas because irritation of the bowels in an infection of this type may itself cause serious complications.

ManteO Takes On
Yard Craft 9 at
ManteO Sunday

Manteo, July 21.-Bill's Park
will be the scene of more battling
with the old baseball Sunday al
ternoon when the Manteo nine
plays host to the Yard Craft team
from the Norfolk Navy Yard.
The locals, gloating from one OF
it's sweetest wins in several years,
a win from Perrytown, will be out
to make their record this year a
more impressive one. Sammy kee,
who pitched so brilliantly in the
win over PerrytoWn last Sunday
will probably take the mound
again against the Yard Craft
team.
Very little is known about the
Yard Craft team around here, but
if reports from around Norfolk
and Portsmouth are correct a real
battle is in store. However, in spite
of the kind of team that is op-
posing them Sunday, Manteo is
expecting to keep in the win
column.

Rogers Hornsby
Is Dismissed By

Baseball
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
UP Staff Correspondent

New York, W.H-The main les
son learned from the aH-star
baseball game is that no manager
should be allowed to dominate
the affair as Bill Terry did at
Washington.
Terry, ignoring the opinions OF
most other National League pilots.
picked his own team, and an
nounced: I'm playing this game
to win"
In the light of that statement
many American Leaguers as well
as practically all National Leag-
uers were amazed to see Johnny
Mize, Cardinals. playing first base.
while Rip Collins, Cubs, rode the
bench.
Collins played first base in the
Boston all-star game - only one
won by the National League-and
his play this season has been one
of the high spots Of the Cubs
pennant drive. There's no manager
in the National League who Will
question the statement that Col
Inns can outfield Mize.
Emphasis on OffenSe
Terry deliberately sacrificed de-
fensive strength to get Mize in at
first and Arky Vaughan at third.
This was a strange move on the
part of the manager who stresses
defense on his own team, the
Giants. 1t was even stranger
when it's considered that Terry
was pinning his faith on tight
pitching by Dean, Hubbell and
Mungo.
Two hits went through Mize.
which caused the National Leag-
uers plenty Of trouble. One OF
them an easy chance, led an
American league manager to re-
mark:
81 see the National League has
blacksmith playing first base.
How do they expect to win with
him out there"
Mize's bat was feeble and he
went hitless. Collins, called on to
pinch blazed out a single.
The supshot of the entire affair.
in the writer's opinion, is that the
fans should be allowed to pick the
manager of the two all-Star clubs.
Terry has managed the National
Leaguers twice, and failed to show
any of the finesse he exhibits in
plotting the Giants. Terry plain
ly showed he doesn't care for the
all-star game.
New Faces Favored
Joe Mccarthy has managed the
American Leaguers the past two
years, subbing for Mickey Coch-
rane in 1886 when the Tiger pilot
was i'll. It looks like Mccarthy
will win the pennant with the
Yanks and be eligible to pilot
the third straight American
League clubs. The fans would like
to see some other American
League pilots try their hand at
the job.

Judges Figure That Austin
Will Score Win Against
No. 2 U. S. Player
By ROBERT C. DOWSGN

London, July 21.-U.R)-London
bookmakers today established the
United States Davis Cup team as
to 5 favorite to defeat Eng
land in the challenge round and
regain the trophy it lost to
Frances three musketeers" a de-
cade ago.
1t was generally believed that,
regardless of the draw two days
hence, the American team OF
Donald Bulge, Gene Mako and
either Bryan (Bitsy) Grant or
frankie Parker, would win by the
decisive score of four matches to
one. Sound tennis judges figure
that Britain'S No. l player, Bun
ny Austin, will score his sides on
ly point in his match with the
No. 2 American player. Bulge is
rated as an absolute certainty to
win both his battles, and no one
gives the British duobleS team OF
c. R. D. Tuckey and F. H. D.
Wilde a chance against the chal-
lenging tandem.
Tuckey and Wilde are a new
partnership that was neceSSitated
by the withdrawal Of the veteran
Pat Hughes because of illness.
Wilde is little more than a good
player, and Tuckey, tremendous
but erratic hitter, is certain to
miss the cagey Hughes direction.
Austin's singles partner will be
Charley Hare, youngster with
little international experience.
Some of the more optimistic Brit
ish hackers believe that Hare, on
one of his mad days." might beat
either Grant or Parker, but the
chances of his reaching his top
game in his first defense Of the
cup is unlikely.
If the draw pits Austin and
Bulge on the first day the U. S.
is likely to regain the cup on the
second, making the final two
matches nothing more than eX-
hibitionS.
British experts still are criti-
cizing the American non-playing
captain, Walter Pate, for his sell
ection of Grant over Parker in
the interzone final with Germany.
They maintain that Parker, hav-
ing beaten Henner Henkel in the
Wimbledon play, was the only
logical choice. Pate has not init
mated which man he will use
Grant or Parker-agairGt Eng
land, but everyone believes it will
be Parker.
Grant has played Austin sew
eral times and has had absolutely
no success against the fluent
stroking Briton. Parker, on the
other hand, has enough power and
drive to cause Austin real con-
Germ.
There is much speculation as to
how long the United States will
keep the cup this time. The last
time they won it the Americans
kept it seven years. If Bulge
should refuse to turn professional
the cup should remain in the home
of the donor for many years, be-
cause England and France and
Australia have few promising
youngsters coming along, and
Germany has none.

Lefty Grove hurled the Boston

Jimmy FoxX cracked out a brace
of home runs, for a total of four

Tommy Bridges for eight hits and
as many runs before he gave way

In the second game the Indians

frame with a triple, and Solters
