American Association as their prin-
cipal training grounds for talent.
These two powerful minor league
clubs will continue to produce fine
baseball ability every year for the
Yankees.
The Yanks are one of several
teams that have discovered that the
proper method Of supplying a win
ming major league club with cap
able talent is to own some minor
league teams. Rupert first tried
paying high prices for advertised
stars when he took over the Yanks.
This proved too costly. The farm
method has proved far better. 1t
costs less and supplies classier ma
terial. The st. Louis Cardinals I'M
der Branch Hickey made a similar
discovery few years back and
they now have the most extensive
chain farm system in baseball.
The thing for the other clubs to do
is to build farm systems that are
as good as the Yankees or the
Cardinals have and the Giants, Cubs
and Indians are developing. Such
measure would eventually equalize
the playing strength of the various
teams and bring into a more even
balance the strength of the Ameri-
can and the now admittedly
weaker National league.
Of course there is the alternative
of bigger scouting system for
every team. But if the top clubs
continue to increase their farm &C.
tivities, the field for scouting will
be so limited that it will be difficult
to find adequate talent except on
teams owned by other clubs. Scouts
are said to be running into that
situation already.
Baseball fans everywhere love a
winner. They are content as long as
their team is in the fight. But they
are justly dissatisfied with teams
that have no chances whatever.
Unless the problem of strength
ening the tailenders is solved short
ly, it is not tnconceivable that
major leagues be cut to six clubs
each or some of the franchises
moved. Moving the franchises
might not remedy the situation
more than temporarily. The solu-
ton is for all major league clubs to
be so financed that they can estab-
ish adequate farm systems of their
own.

present in order to have the
other food elements function
properly.
The ideal dietary is one that in
cludes a correct proportion of the
different food elements required
to supply bodily needs without any
of them being supplied in excess,
or in insufficient amounts.
Danger in Omitting One Essential
To illustrate how important it is
that not one of the necessary food
substances be omitted, let me tell
you how an eminent bio-chemist
proved in his experimental lab
oratory, in one of our leading uni
versities, that the difference be-
tween stupidity and genius de-
pended upon the presence or alb
sence of one vitamin.
He placed a pregnant animal
upon a diet adequate in every re-
spect, except that it lacked one
of the six vitamins. AS soon as
her young were born and weaned.
they were fed a completely ade-
quate diet.
Then the scientist tested the
mentality of the young animals.
He wanted to find out whether or
not their mental power had been
injured in any way by the fact
that their mother-during preg
nancy-had been deprived of one
vital food element. So he put them
in a runway. To get out of this
and reach tasty morsel at the
other end-they had to make their
way through a series of passages.
He had already made this same
test on the same type of animals
born Of properly fed mothers. He
knew that it never took them
more than Is trials to learn their
way out of the maze. Most of
them had gotten out after Is to
10 attempts.
But what lack of skill was
shown by the animals whose
mother had been deprived of
proper foodl The stupidity of
these pathetic little creatures was
unbelievable, Some of them never
learned to thread the maze and
reach their goal, even after as
many as $50 trials. They were
being given-at the time-every-
thing that was necessary to their
diet. But they had entered life
with minds totally unequipped to
cope with s,the world-because
their mother had not been prop
erly fed before they were born.
This is a striking example of
the power of food to make or mar
existence. I could cite hundreds
of other laboratory experiments,
many of which have been con-
firmed by clinical experience.
Nor is this power of food to af-
feet mental activity confined to
prenatal life. Even if a child en-
tiers this world with a strong body
and a clear mind-the wrong food
during childhood has the power
to wreck health.
Investigation after investiga-
ton, by leading specialists
throughout the country, has prov
en- that a surprising percentage OF
retarded children-those who can
not keep up with their school
grades-do not really have infe-
rior minds. They only seem stu
pid because the action of their
minds is clogged and slowed down
by sluggish, under-fed bodies
Their brains are like machines
which cannot attempt the speed of
which they are capable-because

strong, healthy and wise.
It can be truly said that
your food is your fate. 1t has
the power to shape your body
to make it strong and beau
tiful, or weak and ugly. It has
the power to influence your
language, your gait, your tone
of voice, in short-your life.
With the right food, life be-
comes a glorious adventure,
for it increases your leader
ship, intensifies your mag
netic qualities, strengthens your
morale, and increases your physi-
cal defenses and resistance. With
out it, one drags through miser-
able days-never realizing even
half of his potential mental and
physical powers.
FoOd-the Fuel of Life.
The human body is a machine,
far more complex than any ma
chine devised by the mind of man.
Food is the fuel which runs this
amazing machine. Food is also
the material used to repair worm
out parts, and to keep the intri-
cate mechanism in good working
order.
The body machine cannot be
run efficiently without proper food
fuel any more than a car could
be run without gas, or a house
could be heated without oil, coal
or wood.
Food also has the power to speed up
or slow docn the workings Of the mind.
1t likewise influences the state of our
nerves, the warmth of our affections. the
type of characters ,Oe possess.
Finally, the power to have
strong, healthy children is based
on proper food. And nutritional
scientists have discovered that
the wrong food can even take
away from us the greatest bless
ing that Nature has bestowed
our earthly Immortality. For it
can deprive us of the ability to
bear children who will carry on
after we are gone.
Six Groups of Food Substances.
What food substances are neces-
sary to build and maintain top
health-to develop the greatest
physical and mental power?
There are six groups of food sub
stances which must be included in
the balanced diet which promises
increased health, happiness and
longevity:
/. PROTEINS which build
and repair body tissues. These
are found in such foods as
milk, eggs, meats, fish, cheese
and nuts.
2. FATS which yield heat
and energy. The fats are rep
resented by butter, cream, oils
and the fat of meats.
3. CARBOHYDRATES = the
starches and sugars. These
also supply heat and energy,
and are found chiefly in such
foods as bread, potatoes, cere-
ais and sweets.
4. MINERALS which build,
repair, protect and regulate.
Among the minerals which are
absolutely necessary to health
and vigor are calcium, phos-
phorus, iron, copper, iodine,
sulphur, manganese, magne-
SUM, sodium and potassium.
These are found in varying
amounts in milk, eggs, fruits,
vegetables, whole grain cere-
ais and meats.
S. VITAMINS which are nee
essary for body regulation, and
as protection against dread
deficiency diseases. Six have
been discovered to date-A, B,
c, D, e and G..
6. WATER which is part of
all body tissue and must be

In a sealed coffin the body
probably will be buried in the next
day or SO after a private funeral
attended only by relatives.
Mrs. Cash, the 31-year-old
mother, has been virtually in a
state of collapse since the third
day after her only sons diSap-
pearance.
The finding of the body that de-
stroyed the last vestige of hope,
plus the confession of Mccall,
proved a doubly hard blow. The
culprit had been a close acquain-
tance of the Cash household and
had taken a solicitous interest in
the hunt for the boy.
LIVED WITH VICTIM
Mccall and the wife he married
two years ago twice had been a
tenant in the Cash apartment
building during tomato picking
season, when he drove truck in
the fields, and had moved from
the Cash place to a cottage in the
vicinity less than two months ago.
He was known and well-liked
by most of the 600 residents of
Princeton, but most shocking to
the Cash family was his past
frie Id hip for the playful
"SkeegIe," as Jimmy was affec'
tionately known. The two fre
Quently were seen romping to
gether.
This very fact, authorities said,
indicated Mccall might have been
the actual kidnaper. Jimmy was
fearful of strangers and woula
hardly have allowed himself to oc
carried away without crying out.

McCall's close relationship with
the Cash family really led to his
