Appeal Not to Send Is

The District Commissioners today
considered a written appeal from a
committee of nurses at Glenn Dale
Sanatorium that no colored nurses
be certified by the Civil Service Com
mission for duty at the tuberculosis
institution.
The appeal came in the form OF
a lengthy letter from a committee
of nurses at the hospital which set
forth the following reasons why Is
colored nurses should not be sent
to Glenn Dale:

stated and due to the arrangement
of shifts and meals colored and white

 TO BE GIVEN BIG CHANCE
Seasons Most Talked of Recruit Comes from
 Coast League
By DILLON GRAHAM IF Feature Service Sports Writer

hA Ethtuft oNfffCt BBOfhS "Itttt
 NEW YORK, March 2.--From the Pacific Coast circuit comes this springs most talked of maj league rookie-Freddie Hutchinson.
 He's just 19 and only a couple of years off the sandlots but he was voted last years outstanding minor leaguer. The 200-pound, 6-foot-2 right -hander won 25 games and lost ' for Seattle and compiled an earn ed-run average of 2,48. Pacific Coast rooters say he'll make as big splash in the American League as did Joe DiMaggio.
 Virtually every league club with any loose dough hopped into the bidding for this strong g-armed pitcher. Just when everyone thought the Pittsburgh Pirates had him book ed the Detroit Tigers grabbed him for $50,000 and four players. That was one of the highest prices ever paid for a green rookie.
 Other "Permancnts
 Some scouts doubt if he's quite ready for the majors yet. But the Tigers, who need pitching as sore ly as n polar bear needs ice. are going to give him every chance.
 Several other far westerners seem likely to grab permanent jobs. Con nie Mack unloosed pile of cash for Infielder Bill Lillard, who hit .335 for San Francisco. and Pitcher Rob- ert Joyce. who won l8 for Oakland. The New York Giants pitching staff, Q questionable quality with the sore -armed Carl Hubbell and Hal Schumacher. hopes to use Man. uel Salvo. San Diego right-hander. This 6-foot-4 Italian ace, who won 22 and lost g. has been the Pacific's strikeout king for the last two sea- sons.
 The Boss Listens
 1 Charles English, Los Angeles third baseman who banged out l9 home runs and hit 1903. has an idea he can barge into the Cincinnati in- field. Bill McKechnie's listening.
 Other rookie graduates include:
 Pitcher Henry Pippen. Sacramento. to the Philadelphia As; Catcher George Dickey. Portland, and In- fielder Tom Carey, Hollywood, to the Boston Red Sox: Pitcher Bob Eu- gene Lillard and Infileder Glen Russell, Los Angeles, to the Chicago Cubs; and Pitcher Robert Lee Sher- Till, Catcher Herman Franks, In- fielder Joe Orengo and Outfielder Elvin Adams, Sacramento, to the St. Louis Cardinals.

Boisterous Gas House Gang of Cardinals Is
 Cone-Down 10 Bizz

ST. LOUIS, March 2.-Theres not even a song left in the once poster ous Gas House Gang.
 The St. Louis Cardinals, few years ago the most colorful team baseball had ever known, will jog 1p to the 1899 starting line as bleached as an old shirt.
 And if there ever was man without country, figuratively gpeaking, it's John Leonard (Pep- per) Martin, the clubs ace clown and mischief maker, who is used to having as much fun in one sea- son as the average player has in a dozen.
 He's about the last of the band nf ball-players who roamed the National league diamonds with great success in Cardinal uniforms. Most of his playboy henchmen - the ones who snapped at umpires and threw hotel crowds into up- roars by posing as pa in ters, stretching ropes in front of eleva- tor doors or playing hot foot are grazing in other fields far from the call of the Wild Horse of the Osage"
 Ripper Collins, always one of Peppers most valued assistants, was the first to go. Then eLippy) Durocher, Frankie Frisch, Dizzy Dean, Frenchy Bordagaray, and others
 Undaunted by these losses, and warnings to drop midget auto racing and managing prize fighters from his extra -curricular activities, Mar tin conceived his last and greatest idea-The Mudcat Band.
 It gained quick fame and was publicized the country over. Pub licity for the fiddle players and jug blowers was publicity for the Cards And President Sam Breadon, whc likes nothing better than an old Irish song, on or off key, even chipped in and helped buy better "gittars" for the boys.
 But things have changed. Toe many defeats soured Bosses Brea- don and Branch Rickey on music and turned the Mudcats band as cold as Willie's toes. The band has disbanded.
 So, with his merry musical Cats only a memory. Martin and all his lads will have to stick strictly tc baseball this season. Pep probably will be relegated to the role of gen. eral utility man.
 Perhaps Hickey and Breador have the right answer.
 Perhaps the Mudcats' sour note' prevented Don Gutteridge iron being a better shortstop. Mayb' the sound waves from Bob Wei lands jug put Joe Medwick in hi 1888 slump. Perhaps Lon Warnek' and Bill McGee fiddled too much.
 Fans are wondering. Anyway they will miss the color.

ANTI FIRE E IDEA STRESSED
 IN NEW HOTEL
Safeguards Are Provided Throughout Structure
 of Modern Bardnof

Fire -proofing and fire protection in the new Baranof Hotel have been carried to almost apparently 100 percent protection limits.
 Bearing walls of reinforced con- crete rise for the entire seven story height of the structure. Built of cement and steel, these walls are said to be absolutely impreg- nable to the attack of flame.
 Connecting these bearing walls and providing the numerous rooms and Hobbies are series of parti- tion walls.
 It is in this phase of construc- ton that the fire threat is usu- ally evident in numerous buildings In the Baranof these partition walls are of steel studdings, spaces filled with gypsum. So fireprooi are they that the application of g blow torch fire on their surface would not institute flame
 Additional Factor
 An additional factor added to the precautions against fire is the dec- orative tower which faces on First Street.
 Placed for the length of this tower are fire escape stairs term mating in suspended steel stair way which tips to the ground un- der the weight of one person.
 Should fire invade the building once a person attains the safety of this tower they are cut off from flame. Self closing fire doors oi steel provide ingress but shield the tower from the corridors.
 At every landing in this tower there is provided a fire hose con- nection, installed for the purpose of using this fire tower as a place from which to fight flames in ad. jacent buildings.
 The regular stair well for the hotel floors is also enclosed in fire proof doors and itself built Of re- inforced concrete.
 Elevator Shafts
 Elevator shafts are concrete anl are enclosed, thus preventing tht possibility of fire spread by ths shaft draft.
 Scattered throughout the build ing and placed in handy recesse! on the walls are numerous fir, extinguishers ready for instant use
 Fire alarm boxes located in cor venient spots will ring an alarn throughout the hotel and also tt the City Fire Hall
 This alarm feature is likewis,
