Rare Disease
our1d Here

A case Of trichinOsis, a disease
rarely found in this section, has been
discovered in a 12-year-Old girl in
South Henderson, the Vance County
Health Department reported today.
While the allment sometimes causes
death, the patient here is reported to
be recovering.
The disease appears as small
Jumps in the muscles Of the diaphram
and the arms and legs, forming pain
full nodes, then turning into an alb
scess that sometimes requires lancing.
The infection occurs two to three
weeks before the symptoms appear,
the department said, and is contract
ed by eating raw or poorly cooked
and infected meat This spread Of
time makes it almost impossible to
determine the precise source of the
infected meat, it was stated.
In announcing the case, the health
department issued a warning TO the
public to beware of raw pork, as
garbage-fed hogs are ten times more
apt to be infected than grain and
pastured hogs"
Following is the statement IRON
the health department.
"A comparatively rare disease
found in Vance county, trichinois,
has been known as a disease of man
fer almost 100 years. Up to 1925
only about 1900 cases had been re-
ported in this country; since 1925
over 5000 cases have been reported
Perhaps the increase of cases is
largely due to better diagnostic ia
ciiities and a more Wide-aWake
medical profession along the line of
injected food

Wrap Up Title as
FareweN Gift
BY the Associated Press.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, May 90
Michigan's powerful track team set
out today to wrap up another West
ern Conference championship as a
farewell gift to Coach Charles
(Chuck Hoyt.
Led by Big Bill Watson. the VOL
verines headed into the finals over
whelming favorites to win their
third successive outdoor title and
their sixth since 1881 under Hoyt,
who goes to Yale University as track
mentor next fall.
Dominating yesterdays trials,
Michigan grabbed 20 of the 50 quail
flying places in the 10 preliminary
events. with Watson climaxing the
rout by smashing a 23-year- old meet
mark as he qualified in three events
in which he is defending champion.
The husky Negro captain from
Saginaw, Mich, set new Big Ten
standard in the discus, heaving the
platter 160 feet 105s inches to erase
the record of 155 feet 2 inches that
Arne Mucks of Wisconsin set in 1916.
In addition, he topped qualifiers
in the broad jump with a leap OF
Is feet 5la inches, the best COM
petitive effort of his career, and in
the shotput with toss of 50 feet
6 inches.
Far back in second place, with
8 qualifiers, was Wisconsin. favorite
for the runner-up spot, followed by
Indiana and Ohio State, each with T.
Minnesota and Iowa each placed 6,
Purdue and Illinois each, North

There were other items less en-

in the process of losing an 8-4 de-
cision to the Indians. Third Base
man Buddy Lewis contributed three
costly errors.
The Mats were enjoying a 80
lead entering the sixth inning, but
the Indians pounced on Ken Chase
for three runs on four singles and
the first of Lewis errors. Then,
without benefit of hit, they regis
tered two runs off Relief Pitcher
Harry Kelley through the medium
of three walks and two more WASH
ington miscues.
Washington outhit the Indians,

CHAPEL HILL. N. c., May 90
North Carolina, by virtue of placing
% men in the finals of the 17th an
nual Southern Conference track and
field meet here today, ruled the IA
vorite to win the team championship
by wide margin.
Duke pushed IL men through yes
terday's preliminaries and Mary
land 10. Both Duke and Maryland
were given an outside chance to up
set the form sheet and nose out the
Tar Heels.
Joe Murphy, Maryland's crack
sprinter, who did 90 in the 1OO-yard
dash yesterday, also qualified in the
220 and broad jump to become the
only Terp to reach the finals in
three events. Alap Miller is in the
finals of the 220 and 44O, however.
while Hermie Evans qualified Tor
both hurdles. Ochsenreiter, Kluge
and Kenney qualified for the 40.
Javelin and broad jump, respectively.
1t was to be in the distant races,
where new records confidently were
expected, that Maryland was to
make its real bid Jim Kehoe, the
conferences indoor champion, car
ried the Old Line hopes in the $50,
while Mason Chronister was con-
sidered the man to beat in the mile
Chronister expected stiff COMPETE
ton from Jimmy Davis of Caro-
lima, however. Joe Peaslee and
Tom Fields gave Maryland good
chances in the Emile run.
One record was tied and another
was smashed in the preliminaries.
Bill Corpening of North Carolina
did the 120 high hurdles in 14.5
seconds, matching the time set last
year by Dom Kinzkle of Duke.

Case's e'sCurrent Pace
Would Net Him II
Stolen Bases
FIeet-Footed Tactics
Have Brought on 7
Errors and BuIk

The amazing basepath antics OF
George Case, Washington center
fielder, are creating few head
aches in the American League, for
the streamlined Case, the Nationals
foremost exponent of getting from
here to there in a brief period, thus
far has compiled an enviable record.
To date Case has attempted to
steal bases some 13 times and has
succeeded on IL occasions, being
caught when Catcher Birdie Teb-
belts of Detroit called for a pitchout
when he sensed Case would be under
way with the pitch.
Case, though, hasn't been content
merely with his thefts. His speedy
hoofing has been responsible for
seven errors and a balk. Three
times catchers have hurried their
throws to second in an effort to nip
the feather-footed Case, presenting
George a ticket to third, while other
times infielders have hurried throws
to first, but wildly.
He was perched on third in Chi
cago and feinted as if intending to
steal home. The net result was a
balk by Pitcher Johnny Rigney
which scored Case Johnny Allen
took the liberty of a windup with
Case on third and two out in Cleve-
land and before he had time to
blush, George was sliding into
the plate.
Detroit's Archie McKain at
tempted half windup with Case
on second and he next viewed Case
on third. Yesterday Catcher Rollie
Hemsley overthrew second as Case
was stealing and George scooted
on to third.
At his present pace Case figures
to steal some II bases this season,
but there are indications he NAV
increase that pace George. YOU
see, is batting only .267. which
means his opportunities to steal
haven't been frequent. When he
starts clicking at his normal pace
and gets on base more often. the
leagues catchers apparently are due
to be embarrassed.

BY BURTON HAWKINS.

With trade winds stirring mild
ly around his stocky frame, Ro-
berto Estalella, the chunky Cuban
outflelder who gives the Nationals a
dash Of color, suddenly has taken
an acute interest in protecting his
job. Jovial Bobby, in brief, has
started to hit.
Warm weather, patterned along
the lines of the semi-tropical at
mosphere with which he is familiar,
may have played an important part
in Estalellas recent resuscitation. a
happy event which Manager Bucky
Harris hopes fervently isn't a flash
in the pan.
Estalellas hitting until two days
ago was horrible. to be blunt, but
there are indications the laughing
Latin has found his stride-the
stride which enabled him to whack
a creditable 1856 last year in the
Piedmont League. He currently is
revealing some of the power which
was expected from his squat, power
full frame.
Being a miserable hitter in early
campaigning isn't novel to Bobby,
for during the major portion of the
spring season last year he batted
only 240 for Charlotte. He now
is swatting a modest .206, some 20
points over his weight, but there
is evidence he will improve per-
ceptibly.
Esty May Get Dusty.
BY now it is no mystery that
Estalella will have a difficult time
remaining loose" up at that plate.
Some of the players whom he op-
poses hardly crave his company in
their select society, so Bobby ap-
parently is due to receive an oc-
casional "dusting."
That, however, is nothing new to
Esty. He spent large part of last
summer lodging bean" balls, but
pitchers who threw to him instead
of at him also were ducking a bit,
for Bobby rammed some 38 home
runs, 9 triples and 80 doubles
past their ears.
Willis Hudlin conveniently lost his
control yesterday and whizzed a
fast one precariously close to Esty's
wavy hair. Then Esty proceeded to
triple.
Baseball moguls have outlawed
the bean ball" but Bobby isn't
inclined to believe all he reads.
Further, his knees don't click like
castinets after being forced to fail
on his face to avoid beaning.
Batters lacking courage couldn t
hit 1886 in any league.
Weather May Help.
Harris and most of his Mats
were unable to fathom how Esty
appeared so feeble earlier this
season after his success last year
and in spring training The answer
may have been the weather. Bucky
