The spring salad is the most sprightly of tonics.
 But first you need bowl-a large one in which pieces of let tuce and romaine, chicory and en- dive, watercress and parsley can be tossed and topped with French dressing.
 Break these crisp green into mouth size pieces and use as many different kinds as your market of- fers. Incidentally, it isn't true that men don't like salads.
 Herbs are many things, some familiar, some unknown to the av- craze American cook. Parsley is an herb, so are the tender leaves of celery which are so often thrown away. Dandelion greens are herbs, so is sour grass, called surrel.
 A few of the tiny leaves of spin ach chopped, served as herbs in your spring salad So do radishes. Mustard leaves, fresh mint and chives are called herbs too.
 All these are familiar, but far too much neglected by salad mak- CTS. Chopped, put into the bowl of other greens they add Zest. And don't forget the needed brightness of . chopped or finely sliced scal- lion or two, or the smooth and harmonizing blessing of new garlic rubbed about the bowl before the greens go in. And dressing just be- fore serving.
 A French dressing made of oil : and lemon juice or vinegar (either the cider of wine variety) plus spices, is the one dressing fit to associate with such delicate food. Tastes vary on French dressing, Here are two good recipes:

 One and one-half cups olive oil 1-2 cup strained lemon juice, tea spoon salt, 1-8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, 2 teaspoons sugar, egg yolk, 1-2 clove garlic.

YOUTH AND THE IoDIN INTAKE

Some fruits and vegetables grown in soil that is not too poor in iodine may supply sufficient iodine for some people, notably strawberries grapes, white cabbage, tomatoes, green peas, green beans, asparagus, carrots. But owing to the solubility of iodine dodides) most of the io- dine is carried down to the sea. Sea food is the richest source of iodine lobster. clans, oysters, crabs, sea fish, smoked herring, canned sal- mon.
 In my opinion it is advisable for every child and adult not under medical care to make a regular prac- tice of taking 8 drop or two of common tincture of iodine in a drink of watef once week the year around. That is what I designate an Iodine Ration" It helps to build and maintain vite.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 25.
(UP) - University of California's
track team was established firmly
as a power in Pacific Coast con-
ference competition today through
its impressive 1886 victory over
University of Washington in their
annual indoor meet here last night.
Coach Brutus Hamilton's athletes
from Berkeley scored in every one
of the Is events, winning first
places in 10 of them and tieing
for first in two others. In addi-
ton the Golden Bears collected
nine second places.
Washington scored its only vic
tories in the 180-yard low hurdles,
the 880-yard run and the 220-
yard dash. Jack Flagg, Washington
captain won the 900.
In the two-mile run, Cooper and
Vollmer of California tied for first,
Mel Long, Kits and Jackson du-
plicated their feat by sharing first
in the high jump.
Washington and California en-
tries tied in the high hurdles and
the pole vault. All other races
went to the visitors. There were no
records broken.

"Traynor had TO put the rap on

Bill Chandler, head coach at
Marquette and presiding officer at

Investigating officers said the

Because the Cincinnati Reds are
the Bench Warmers choice in the
National league pennant race. we
turn you over to George Kirksey
of the United Press who will out
line chances of the McKechnie
charges.
Deacon Bill MeKechnie squintS
through his gold-rimmed spectacles
and goes about his work of build
ing the Cincinnati Reds into pen
nant contender while all about him
the skeptics shout about the vital
weaknesses of the Rhinelanders.
McKechnie isn't much impressed
by the walls about the Reds flaws.
Fifty-two, and starting his 10th sea-
son as a National league manager,
McKechnie knows all the answers
but he isn't tipping his mitt.
I'VE plan to finish as high as we
possibly can" says McKechnie
How high that is is something you
and I won't know until next Octo-
ber."
The two most frequent harpoons
hurled at the Reds concern their
second base combination and
whether Derringer, Lombardi and
Mccormick can duplicate the su-
perlative work they did last year.
I'VE are better fortified at second
base than some of our critics give
us credit for" says McKechnie.
There's no more reason to expect
Derringer, lombard and McCor-
mick to go sour than there is to
expect them to perform just about
as well as they did last year. I
cannot spend my time worrying
about whether a man will have a
bad year Just because he had a
good year the previous season"
The Reds have not made a great
many changes. Most of their i'm
provements is likely to come from
within the club. The two important
additions are Billy Werber, bought
from the Athletics to plug the third
base hole. and Frenchy Bordagaray.

Todd says he is happier in Bos-

"Mexicai Rose" Simmons plopped
down on the bench to rest his
weary dogs. It's no fun running
on those Sandy Florida diamonds
when you're IS and you've been
around the majors for IS years.
Simmons got in bad with Clark
Griffith for getting into an argu-
ment with a Washington fan, and
was heavily fined just before the
season ended. Griffith waived him
out of the American league. and
sold him to the Bees at figure

but his acquisition certainly im-
proves the outlook of the infield.
Lew Riggs was the weakest link
in the Reds last year. He couldn' I
come in on a ball and his batting
was feeble. Werber will be a big
improvement at the hot corner. BY
stealing 10 bases last season Werber,
by himself, pilfered as many as the
entire Reds club. Bordagaray gives
the Reds dangerous right handed
pinch-hitter and a capable reserve
outfielder who also can play third.
The outfield will be Berger in
left; Craft, the leagues best defen-
sive man, in center. and Ival Good
man in right. Every one is expect
ing Craft. who hit 27O last season,
to blossom into a 800 clouter The
reserves will be Bordsgaray and Lee
Gamble.
The mainstays of the pitching
staff will be Derringer, Walters,
