DAVIS CUP NET. PREv|EW SET AT CHESTNUT HILL
Budge and Mako Meet OuiSt and BrOmWich
 Today
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff COrrespondent)

(OHlteu fEcSS StaIh NUrEcSpVIhuChG
 Chestnut Hill, Mass, Aug. 27- (UP)-A partial preview of next weeks Davis Cup challenge round between the United States and Aus tralia will be held at the Longwood Cricket club today when Don Budge and Gene Mako play Adrian Quist and Jack Bromwich for the national tennis doubles champion ship.
 These are the same two teams which play the Davis Cup doubles in Philadelphia a week from Sum- day. Budge and Mako gained the final with bitterly contested vic- tory over the veteran combination of Wilmer Allison and Johnny Van Ryn, and the Australians coasted in over their countrymen, Harry Hop man and Leonard Schwartz.
 Critics and Davis Cup commit teemen attach much importance to today's final, and think 1t will give an accurate line on Americas chances of holding the cup. If Budge and Mako prove their su- periority over the Australians then the battle of Philadelphia should be a rout. If they lose, however, Aus tralia's stock will get a great boost. If the Australians can be sure of a point in the doubles they could spot Budge the two singles wins he is almost certain to score, and still take the cup by beating Bobby Riggs twice.
 Today's final would seem to be a toss-up. Both teams have al- ternated between good and bad tennis all week. Early in the week Budge and Mako were ordinary while the Australians were good. Yesterday it was the Aussies who were ragged and the Americans who were strong. /
 As a matter of fact, Quist and BromWich were so inept in the se- mi-final that Hopman and Schwarz had to throw" dozens of points at crucial moments to keep from car- rying them to five sets and pos- sibly beating them.
 Budge and Mako had to go all out, play their best game, to turn back the challenge of Allison and Van Ryn, who had their sights set on a third leg and permanent pos- session of the doubles cup. Allison played as well as he ever did and Van Ryn, once the first two sets were over, was the Van Ryn of old.
 In the women's final the defend- ing champions, Alice Marble, of california and Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Fabyan, of Boston meet the color Iul team of Jadwiga Jedrzejowska oI Poland and Mime. Rene Mathieu o1 France. Jadwiga and Rene are surprise finalists. They were SUD- posed to bow out yesterday before the No. l seeded foreign team of Thelma Coyne and Nancy Wvnne of Australia. But Jadwiga's thun- dderbolt forehand and Rene,s cagev placements completely routed the favored pair.
 Miss Marble and Mrs. Fabyan should win. They are right on ton or their games now, and when they're right no women in the world can carry them to extra sets but both Alice and Sarah are re- noWhed m-and-outers and can 20 sour at the drop of hat.
 Championships in the mixed oouoies, mems veterans, women's $ veterans, and fathers and sons will be decided today also. WAT

PIRATES SEEM
 TO BE BACKING
 |NTO' NIL. TITLE
Giants Beaten Again on Hit By Gutteridge;
 Yanks Coast
By GEORGE KIRKSEY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Aug. 27.-(UP)-It be- gins to look as if the 1888 National league championship will go to team with the fewest number of vic- tories any winner has had since the 154-game schedule was adopted in 1904.
 The record for backing into the championship was set at 89 games won, and 65 lost by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1926.
 With the exception of the Pitts burg Pirates, whose lead is getting simmer and simmer, first division clubs must play at much faster clip If they hope to take the pen- nant with higher figure than the Cards 89 wins 12 years ago.
 The Pirates, with 39 games left to play, could maintain a .538 clip l-21 wins and 18 losses-and avoid equaling the Cardinal mark. Their average for the season, with 69 wins and 46 losses, is an even 500. The second-place Giants, with an aver age today of .560, will have to func- ton at .658 to make 1t. The Chi- cago Cubs, 1-2 games off the pace, would have to increase their speed from .551 baseball to .694 while the Cincinnati Reds, in fourth place, would have to go up from .542 to .722.
 The Pirates have 39 games to play; the Giants 3S; Chicago and Cincinnati each 36.
 How ever you look at It. 1t ap- pears that the league will be beg ging for leader before the end of September because every time the Pirates get far enough out in front to feel comfortable they begin to come apart at the seams and Man. ager Pie Traynor has to juggle his lineup.
 Yesterday, they lost their third straight to the Ph1llies, 6-4, al- though Traynor had benched Rizzo and Handley in an effort to get a new winning combination. That defeat didn't affect the Pirates 4 l-2 game lead over the Giants, how ever, because St. Louis took care of the New Workers 7-6. Chicago crept up another game, to within 5 1-2 of the top, with a "a victory over Brooklyn. Cincinnati fell out of its third place tie with the Cubs by los- ing 6-1 to Boston.
 Al Smith, former Giant and Pete Sivess, held the Pirates to seven hits. Traynor called on Rizzo in the ninth as a pinch hitter, but the sensational rookie failed to deliver. The Phils clinched the game with a five-run burst in the fifth.
 Don Gutteridge's second triple of the day drove in Johnny Mize in the ninth with the run which enabled the Cards to lick the Giants.
 In the American league, the Yan- kees held their 12-game lead by splitting with Cleveland while sec- ond-place Boston was dividing with Chicago. The Tanks won the open- CT 15-9, smelling young Bob Teller unmercifully for seven innings. The Indians won the second game 8-5. Chicago won its opener 12-2 and lost the second 9-8 in 10 innings. St. Louis and Philadelphia split, the As taking the opener 1l-6 and losing the second 6-4. Detroit lick ed Washington 9-3.

was threatened by blackhead. Since
the cause has become better under
stood the disease is largely prevent
able through the application of sani-
tary measures, says Wade H. Rice,
Poultry Specialist for the University
of Maryland Extension Service.
Blackhead is a parasitic disease
that affects, principally, young tur-
keys in the early summer and late
fall. 1t may also cause losses among
chickens and older turkeys. Discolo-
ration of the head of the bird that
dies of the disease sometimes occurs.
However, this symptom is seen also
in other diseases, and does not always
occur in blackhead. The most COM
mon symptoms are sulphur-colored
foamy droppings, droopiness, loss of
appetite and an invariable loss of
weight.
Many turkey breeders now rear
their poults artificially in order to
prevent losses from blackhead. They
keep the poults first in coops and
runs that can be cleaned easily and
later on pasture that is known not
to have been ranged on by turkeys.
Any turkeys which show symptoms
of disease are removed promptly and
isolated, and those which have died
are buried promptly.
Chickens may contract the disease
says Mr.. Rice, but they usually recov-
er and remain as carriers of the or
ganisms which are discharged in their
droppings. These organisms may in.
feet other birds if picked up in con-
taminated feed or water and, as
young turkeys are especially suscep-
tible, they should never be allowed
to run with chickens. 1t is a dan.
gerous practice even to fertilize with
chicken manure the ground on which
turkeys are allowed to range, as they
may pick up the organisms in suffi.
cient numbers to cause serious losses
