To Sink Foes

NEW YORK. May s. tUP)-Chi-
Cages baseball fortunes sank to a
new low today-laShed on the one
hand by cruel blow from the
Yankees and on the other by in
ternal forces.
What happened to the White
Sox and their high hopes built by
superb baseball the last 10 days is
easy to understand. The Yanks
moved into Chicago yesterday and
before a throng of $4,000 whipped
the White Sox. 15-4.
After winning 10 out of u games
and with d chance to knock the
Yanks out of second place, the
White Sox ran afoul of an old
time Yankee field day Nineteen
hits, 81 total bases. every Yankee
with at least one hit, including two
homers by Joe Gordon and one by
Red Rolfe.
But what's happening to the Cubs
no one can understand. Last years
champions nave completely curled
up and today were only half
game out Of the cellar. Yesterday
the Cubs lost their fifth game out
of six starts in the East as they
were routed by the Giants, 1913.
Knocking down the White SoX
enabled the Yanks to regain the
American league lead as the st.
Louis Browns conquered the Bos-
ton Red SoX, So. Buck Newsom
held the Red SoX to seven hits in
swapping their seven-game winning
streak. Three errors helped the
Browns score four runs.
Cleveland won a 10-inning battle
from Washington, ST. with Johnny
Allen pitching seven innings in his
first start. Odel Hale's pinch single
drove in the deciding runs. In the
other American league game the
Athletics slugged out a 1913 tri-
umph over Detroit Earl Brucker

Running up their biggest score
of the season. the Cincinnati Reds
walloped the Phillies. 1874, and

game always will be a big-time
sport.
zuppke, who resigned" and was
reinstated after 26 years as head
coach of Illinois, emphasizes that
any college that wins too many
football games in the future will
be regarded with suspicion. And
woe to the institution which has
a greater percentage of out of state
football plays than it has out-of-

During the past decade, semi
commercial football reached its

Vinfrido, who made only one pit
stop, took the lead shortly after
the half way mark in the l0O-mile
race, and refused to relinquish his
advantage despite the challenges
of half dozen cars. Vinfrido aver
aged 42% miles per hour over the
course.
Leroy Jones in Car No. IA was
third. Ken Mattel in 40 was fourth,
Tom Gail in IL was fifth, L. G. Nor
ton in 80, sixth.
In early laps Bob Douthitt, Will
liam Pochelle and l.. G. Morton
alternated in the first position but
both Douthitt and Pochelle were
forced out of the race before the
18th lap and Morton dropped back
when the going speeded up.
Vinfrido turned back the chal-
lenges of Richard Ames in No. 3
and of Laurence Current in A, and
George Severe in II in the final
rs laps, and put on the pressure to
outdrive Doc Caradine in House
and Dizney's auto in the final five
laps.
Caradine moved from fourth spot
to second in the short space of
five laps after moving from fifth
position on the Goth round but Vim
fridos advantage was too great to
overcome in the stretch run.
Speed Mason, in Car No. l6. was
injured and taken to the county
hospital when his car smaShd into
Vernon Coles machine on the 30th
lap. Three other autos were elimi-
mated on the 62nd lap in a crackup
on the north turn. None of the
drivers were injured.
Only eighteen cars of the so that
started finished the race to the
cheers of more than 5000 persons
who turned out to watch the derby.
A near crackup in front of the
grandstand furnished the biggest
thrill of the day but steaming mo-
tors, a dropped radiator from car
38 and maneuvers of leading drivers
furnished action from the opening
lap until the last.

SCIENCE LICHTENS
 WOMAN'S BURDEN
Engineers Devote Time, Efforts to Solving Fatigu=
 ing Problems of Kitchen

Emancipation of woman kind from the type of work which gave rise to the old adage "A woman's work is never done," is now avail- able to every family in the country.
 The time has now arrived when the endless back breaking and nerve racking tasks of the house wife can be turned over to new contriviances leaving her with miraculously re- covered time in which to rest, re- lax and enjoy her surroundings. Thus creating much better at mosphere for the entire family.
 Woman's work, primarily is in the kitchen, where she spends most of her time and most of the family's funds. And it is the problem of best equipping the woman's work shop that the engineers have been con- cerned and thus it is today that we find new appliances which can readily and easily do the hard work of the home at 8 very, very nom- inal cost.
 Added to the fuel, saving is the greater efficiency of the appliances themselves, thus contributing fur ther economies for the modern household. This curtailment of op- erating cost has reached such a point, in fact, that older models in the homes are being replaced by new 1888 models.
 The easy terms on which these units may be purchased are very liberal, thus enabling the average family to own one.
 To achieve a modern kitchen it does not naturally mean that all of the appliances need be bought at once. Rather person should first select the one needed most and buy that particular article.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-04-20

also as an additional tray for pre- paration of frozen desserts.
 Practically all of the new Stewart Warmers have wide range illumi- mated cold controls, most of them providing for sixteen points of ad- justment to summer or winter spring or fall temperatures.
 Sav-a-Step Feature
 The Save-a-Step feature is the hamper-like square shelving ar- rangement that turns back = shelf space into front shelf space, be- cause it swings out on hinge. It can be lifted directly out of the refrigerator with all its contents and carried to the kitchen table where the food is prepared.
 Stewart Warner also offers the Slid-a-tray feature which means that at the touch of button when the door of the refrigerator opens out comes an extra shelf on which may be put things from within and carried away.
 Snap out ice cube trays in the new models makes extraction of ice cubes a simple matter. Porcelain interiors and Dulux exteriors make cleaning simple. Vapor sealed cab inets provide more cold with less current.
 Two COmpreSsOrs
 Stewart Warner compressors are offered in two types, the Twin-Cyl- finder, Slo-Cycle and the Hermeti- cally Sealed, both built to company standards of dependability, economy, quietness and durability.
 Stewart Warner is offering several Challenger models this year in ad- dition to the Dual Temp model, and the De Luxe Sav-a-Step models.

FAMILY SIZE IN
 LOW PRICE CLASS
Same Mechanical Care Ex=
 ercised in Construction; Same Modern Features

Widespread introduction of spe- cially designed family size refrigera- tors to sell at prices that are the lowest in the history of the manu- lecturers presenting them, for their size, is an important feature of the current presentation of new 1889 models for the home.
 Six-Foot Capacity
 These new low cost models are virtually all of the six cubic-foot ca- racity. This size, long experience has shown, is normal for the average size family.
 Mechanically, the same careful at tention has been given to their de- sign as has been given to the design of the higher priced de luxe models. z For the most part manufacturers are endowing them with the same type of cold making equipment that is being used in the more expensive makes. Provision for the manufac- lure of ice cubes in ample quantity is included in these lower priced models as is provisions for making frozen desserts.
 . Careful attention has been given to shelving arrangements to make tho storage space efficient. High quality insulation is being used in .all of the low priced models to in- sure economical operation. Choice materials are used for both exterior and interior surfaces, and from the Standpoint of design it is evident that the same thought has been lav- ,isfled on these models for the sake of appearance as on more expensive sones.
 "a Now Available to All There have been lower priced re- frigerators than are these new fam- lily size niodels, but in the past the { lower priced boxes have failed to give Families the capacity needed as ,against the investment the family fscould afford to make for a refrigera- tor.
 l.s M With these new low cost models available, there is now no reason stwhy any family need forego the ad- 9vantages of modern mechanical re- .,frigerators. Term payment plans sare easy to acquire and the econ ..omies in household management ,that mechanical refrigeration make possible will go a long way toward Nhelping to pay for them.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-04-20
New Features Noted
 In Dual Temp Model
Freezing Compartment Located at Bottom of Shelv-
 ing Arrangement With Important Utilities Changes

Stewart Warner presents the ~Dual Temp" model this season as "an utterly new kind of refriger- ator"-something that is apparent at . single glance because the freezing compartment instead of being at the top of the shelving ar- engagement is at the bottom, and be- cause (and even more important) the freezing compartment is really R frozen foods compartment said to be capable of maintaining an aver age temperature of 9 degrees below freezing.
 Several interesting and important utilities derive from this new plan. For example, the ability of the frozen foods compartment to main tain such low temperatures means exceptionally high speed freezing for ice cubes.
 It also means that a most un- usually capacious and flexible shelv- ing arrangement for normal food storage has been made possible, to- gether with improved temperature and humidity control.
 Has Glass Door
 The frozen food compartment is equipped with 8 glass door to keep the low temperatures away from the upper compartments.
 Y The new Dual Temp" model also is equipped with a Stewart Warner Sterilizer Ray Lamp which gives foods the extra healthful protection of ultra violet rays.
 The new note struck by this model is echoed in other new Stewart Warner refrigerators, notably by the inclusion of a porcelain Cold Stor- age Chest as a built-in part of the freezing unit in Sav-a-Step models. This chest, which is of drawer type, not only makes possible safe and economical storage of commercially frozen foods, but it may be used

EvAPORAToRs IMPROVED

One of the greatest advances registered by the new 1880 mechani- cal refrigerators arises out of inn provement of the evaporators with which the new models are equipped These new evaporators make possi- ble higher humidity inside the stor- age space which in turn means bet ter conditions for such foods as vegetables.
