Physical Examination
After Sports Season,
Bayh's New Plan
Would Prove Scholastic
Activities Don't Bring
Loter-Life Ailments

Birch Bayh, head of the Depart.
ment of Health and Physical Edu.
cation of District public schools
hopes to start a program of physical
examinations in the high schools
at the end of each sports season tc
go with the health checkup before
each season which was inaugurated
about three years ago.
The examination at the begin
ming of each sports season-fall
winter and spring-eliminates at the
start boys physically unable to COM
pete in inter high sports, thus eras-
ing the possibility of them being
injured or overworked. Another
check at the end of the season will
show a boys physical and health
growth by participation in the
schools sports program, and this
examination also probably will fur.

Medical Staff Inadequate.
eff we obtain a program of ex-
aminations at the end of sports
season." Bayh said, I'VE can prove
that the boys in question were bet
ter at the end than at the start
and We can have in black and white
the answers to these occasional crit
icisms. I maintain that if a for
mer athlete finds some illness OF
injury a dozen or so years after he
leaves school more than likely it is
something he picked up in later
life. We have only the healthiest
sort of boys participating in our
inter-high athletic program"
At present the staff of the school
medical inspection service is not
adequate to handle a physical ex-
animation both at the beginning
and end of each sports season, but
Bayh hopes soon to have the serv-
ices enlarged.
In memo sent today to high
school principals and football
coaches, Bayh called attention to
the forthcoming football season
and the examinations which must
precede them.
Call Candidates September 3.
Football candidates will be called
out on Tuesday, September 3. and
the examinations will begin shortly
thereafter. Fifty boys at Anacostia

Absence OF Yonks Will Put
Confidence in N. |. Team.

This will be an interesting World
Series, the Reds against Cleveland
or Detroit. A tough one to figure.
Plenty of interest. Plenty of betting.
And with the Yankees out of the
way, you know that the National
League club is going to 60 in there
with plenty of confidence and pep.
of course" said Mr.. Doyle, cast
Ing his mind back into baseball
history, of which he practically
wrote the words and music, You
never can tell about a World Series.
Thirty years ago. you know. the
Chicago Cubs had a great ball club
They won their pennant easy and
early, and they went into the World
Series of 1910 with all the con-
fdence in the world, Except for one
of 'em.
After they clinched the pennant,

After Scouting Athletics.

you've never seen the Athletics.
That's pretty good ball team
They won't win a game off us,
said Killing, and went off to Phil

Il saw him when he came back,
about a week later.
What do you think of those
Athletics now?' l asked him.
Killing whistled,

he. said, and he was almost right.
The Cubs did manage to scratch out
one game, to 3, in 10 innings, with
Three Fingered Brown pitching
They lost all the rest.
We'll, of course. there's no teams
like the Cubs and Athletics of 1910
around now. Just ordinary ball
teams this year. But thatn make
a good World Series. Walters and
Derringer against Feller and Milnar,
hey? Or Walters and Derringer
against Newsom and Bridges. It's
a good program.
Il wish, however, concluded Mr.
Doyle, That when you 60 into your
next trance. you would endeavor to
find out which is going to win that
pennant, Cleveland or Detroit. And
I hope YOU will manage to make
1t Detroit That would be the best
trance you ever had

merging into a crucial trance even
now. Operator, call me at 1870.

Doyle, Algebra Expert,
Dopes q Tight Race
BY JOHN LARDNER.
eprr;al rorresnopdent0 NJ The Star

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Wlth
Cleveland and Detroit now topping
his baseball book III the American
League as co-favorites at 6 to 5, ard
the Yankees no more than humble
6-to-1 shots, Mr.. John Theobald
Doyle, the Broadway algebra king,
was contemplating some of the
more sorbid aspects of the season
to date.
Let me see. let me see, let me
see" said Mr.. Doyle, scratching the
middle of his scalp, which the
summer sunshine back of home
plate has turned to a soft walnut
shade. IF Cleveland wins, that
will murder me. Plenty of people
bet on Cleveland this year. Some
of them got 8 to l from me last
spring. That will be ruinouS, indeed.
Still, for the sake of the city of
Cleveland, where many honest men
reside, I wish 'em luck.
Detroit would be better, from my
point of view. If NewSom keeps
winning, they'll be all right. There's
no kids on that Detroit team, eX-
cept couple of the pitchers. I
mean, they're mostly veterans, and
veterans don't crack in a tight
race. They go right on playing
steady ball.

Figures Finishes at Home
Will Help Tribe, indians.

And this will be a tight race.
I think the Western clubs finish
the season at home. That will
help both the Indians and the
Tigers. Yep, it ought to be close
right down to the wire, dingdong,
with either club winning. Remember
Doyle and Detroit in your prayers"
The baseball campaign of 1910 is
very much askew, from Mr.. Doyle's
viewpoint. Here we have a red-hot
race in the American League. nor
inally a parade league with the
Yankees out of sight in first place,
while in the National League, IA

threatens to breeze home.
