JUNGLE RAYS CORNER

Swans and geese are related, and
both are long g-lived birds. Often they
i've to ages OF 20 to so years, and
eases have been reported where they
hved well past the half-century
mark.
Swans are in general larger than
geese, and their necks are longer.
A swans neck is longer than its
body. Another difference Is In the
curve OF the swans neck.
The swans which are tanned most
often, and which are kept In waters
OF parks, are known as mute swans,
or Polish swans. They seldom, If
ever, make any voice sound while in
captivity. With their graceful necks,
and wings partly raised as they
swim, they are beautiful birds. Other
kinds Of swans do not hold up their
wings while swimming in the way
mute swans do. Now and then a
visitor to ZOO sees rather strange
sight. Baby swans get on the moth
er's back and take a ride.
The wild whistling swans of our
continent are far from silent. Fly-
ing through the air at rates of rs
to 100 miles per hour, they utter
shrill cries, and deep bass notes.
Whistling swans often go to the ex-
treme north of Canada to make
nests and rear young. In winter
they travel as far south as the Gulf
OF Mexico.

-Amozed by Black Swans

black-necked swans are natives of
Chile and Argentina, as we'll as is
lands around the southern end of
South America.
Even more amazing was the dis
covery, q years later, Of black swans
in Australia. They were seen SWIM
ming in a river by men aboard a
Dutch sailing vessel. To this day,
the stream is called Swan River,
in memory Of the event.
The black swans Of Australia are
covered with black featherS, except
for white 'bar" in each /ing. They
have deep red beaks, and their eyes
are red.
It Is interesting to know that all
swans with black feathers are ma
tives Of lands south of the equator.
Some ZOOS in Europe and North
America have imported black swans
to show the public.

Three hundred years ago, people
in Europe and North America had
never seen or heard of any swan
with black feathers. They knew
that little swans had gray-brown
down, but by the end of the year the
young ones always grew coat of
white feathers.
On an August day in the year
1870, a sea captain sailed through
the Strait of Magellan, and noticed
some swans with black necks. Since
that time, 1t has been learned that

South complained of his tough
luck, but we feel it wasn't tough luck
so much as bad bidding. South had
a very sound opening bid, and when
his opponents bid diamonds, the
suit in which he was void, we don't
blame him for rebidding. But in
stead of continuing on forever IN

only five cards, his first rebid should
have taken the form of a take-out
double
If West had now bid three dia-
monds, North would have pasesd ana
South also would have passed. On
the other hand, If West passed,
North would have to bid two spades.
Then If diamonds were bid again,
South might have raised his partner
to three spades. True, this contract
could be doubled and set two tricks.
On the other hand, we have feeling
that West would not have doubled it,
but instead would have gone on to
four diamonds, which, incidentally,
he would have made But, after all,

DONALD, YANKEE. ROOKIE, WINNER
 |OF 10 STRAIGHT
New Pitcher Beat Sen. atOrs-Red SOx Aided
 By TabOr's Bat
RY CHOICE KIRKsEY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, July 6 = (U.P) - All along they've been saying that Alley Donald was lucky and that he was winning primarily because he happened to be @ member of the New York Yankees pitching stan.
 But the last doubt about Don- aids right to his major feague spurs has been dispelled. He beat the Washington Senators yesterday, 6-4, for his 10th straight victory, and 1t takes more than luck to win 10 straight in any league. The tall right-hander out of the Chadrant, Louisiana, canebrakes asked Johnny Nee, Yankee scout, for a tryout when he was pitching for Louisiana Tech. Nee told him to come on to the Tanks camp at St. Petersburg, Fla, but he didn't say anything about paying Donalds railroad fare.
 So Donald hitch-hiked to St. Pet ersburg early in the winter of 1884, and worked in grocery store lin- til the Tanks showed up. He asked for tryout and Manager Joe Me- Carthy tossed him into batting practice. Donald stayed out there and threw them up to the Tanks for 30 minutes. Mccarthy had thought the lad would show him. self up, and quit. But he didn't and he won place in McCarthy's heart.
 Donlad started at Wheeling and worked his way up the Yankee chain via Norfolk, Binghamton and Newark. In 1897 he won 19 and lost 3 for Newark but wasn't quite ready for the Tanks last year and he was sent back. But he's up to stay now. He let the Senators down with seven hits yesterday.
 Tabor Hits Hard The Red Sox continued their slugging with IA hits to beat the Athletics, 6-4. Jim Tabor, Red Sox rookie, hit his fifth homer in two days. Bob Johnson hit homer No. 13.
 Edgar Smith let the Indians down with two hits as the White Sox beat Cleveland, 20.
 Cincinnati maintained its five- game lead over the Giants by de- feating the Cardinals, 6-2. Bucky Walters let the Cards down with four hits, one of them a homer by Don Butteridge, to score his 18th victory.
 After losing five straight in Bos- ton, the Giants put on four-run rally in the ninth to win their first game this season from the eBes at the Beehive 11-7. The Bees had the lead three times but collapsed in the ninth. Frank Demaree's single with the bases damned in the ninth was the deciding wallop. Carl Hub- bell was credited with the victory in relief role.
 Brooklyn climbed into fourth place by defeating the Phillies, 7-1. It was the Phils' ninth straight loss. Freddy Fitzsimmons allowed six hits in winning his second game.
 Pittsburgh knocked the Cubs into fifth place by defeating the cham pions, 10-l. The Pirates made IA hits and drove Charley Root to cover in seven-run third frame. Joe Bowman gave up only five hits.
