DR.. Josephine Rathbone Of Co
lumhia University teachers college,
a widely known authority on health
education, bluntly charged yester-
day there Is too much drinking In
wartime Washington.
Facing members of the District
Physical Education Association, the
men and women who direct the
city's public recreational and sports
activities, she declared:
There is a lot of drinking going
on in Washington. I'm sorry to
say that"
Her statement was challenged by
DR.. Carroll r. Reed, assistant su-
perintendent of schools.
'I am disturbed" he said, ito have
any one from New York come down
here and tell us we drink. I haven't
seen the drinking here that I have
in New York"
Cites Committee Action.
At another point DR.. Reed called
attention to the spontaneous ap-
proval given a proposed physical
training program in the public
schools by the House Subcommittee
on District Appropriations, which
recently concluded hearings on the
budget for the fiscal year begin
ming July /. He said one member in
particular. whom he did not name,
wanted TO give Supt. of Schools
Frank w. Ballou all the money he
needed to carry out the program,
advocated in recent series of arti-
cles in The Star.
DR.. Rathbone was invited as the
guest speaker at the associations

cussion of physical fitness takes the
offensive In the boom town." Her
criticism of the drinking habits of
washington apparently disturbed
some of the members, because just
before the conference ended she
arose suddenly and made this apol-
ogy:
ct hope I didn't hurt anybody's
feelings in what I said about drink
ing in Washington. You people In
recration have a tremendous re-
sponsibility in dealing with this
problem, not for yourselves, but for
others
DR.. Rathbone stressed that one Of
the great needs of the Nations army
of war workers is "diversional let
down"
II suppose the lack of It," she de-
clared, "is the reason the people in

NEW YORK, May ~ NOHp
Night baseball. like sugar, gasoline
and tires, went out of the lives OF
metropolitan fans for the duration
today but the heaviest blow was
expected to fall on the two July
All-Star relief games.
Intersification of the coastal dim
cut to protect shipping against
submarine attacks brought a def
mite ban by Police Commission
Lewis j Valentine on the noe
turnal games but his statement,
while startling, only amplltled
stringent dim-out regulations which
went into effect for the first time
last night.
The New York Giants and Brook
lvn Dodgers are the chief sufferers
from Valentines veto of the arc
light contests since the first OF %
after-dark contests involving the
two clubs was set for Friday night
and had to be switched to the day
time of the same date. But the
action also made the staging OF
the All-Star games at the Polo
Grounds and at Cleveland on the
nights of July 6 and 18th, reSpec-
tivel-, uncertain.
President Horace Stoneham i'm
mediately switched Friday nights
affair with Brooklyn into a day
game and then added that there
would be no twilight experiments
with the remainder of the IA games
scheduled for the night time by
the Giants. The other games will
be moved up to regular day
light starting time of O'Clock EWT.
MACPHAIL HOPEFUL
President Larry MacPhail of the
Dodgers. Father of Major League
Night Bali, admitted that he
would need more time before he
announced any schedule changes
He still had some faint hope that
something might save the games.
The incomes of both the Giants
and Dodgers will suffer almost
equally as both clubs had doubled
this ears quota of arc-light con-
tests Last season. the Dodgers
drew a total of 166,931 for six
games while the Giants packed
in 1896
The Brooklyn Dodgers scored
their seventh straight victory yes
terday as Johnny Allen held the
Cubs to five hits for a Al triumph
his third of the year Clyde Nc
Imperial Valley press., 1942-05-19

their fourth victory in six starts
Cincinnati at Boston was post
poned and Pittsburgh and Phila-
delphia were unscheduled.
The Cleveland Indians bounced
into a virtual firSt-place tie with
the idle New York Yankees in the
American League by defeating the
Philadelphia Athletics, IA. The
Indians trail the champions, whose
game with the st. Louis Browns
was postponed, by .013 percentage
points. Chubby Dean won his third
victory of the year as he held the
AS to six hits but he needed some
ninth-inning help from Joe Heving
to get the last man out with two
on.
The Boston Red Sox defeated the
Detroit Tigers, 4-2 behind the
seventh pitching of Charley Wac
ner. The Red Sox hammered out
II hits, eight off Hal White, who
was charged with all four Boston
runs, and three off Rookie Charlie
Fuchs.
A ninth-inning homer by Wally
Moses with one on gave the Chi
cago White Sox Us triumph over
the Washington Senators for their
seventh straight victory. Orville
Grove held the Senators to nine
hits for his second victory.

Many supporters of the Brawley
athletic program were undoubted-
ly set back little grievously by
the relatively poor showing of the
Wildcat runners in the CIF finals
at Glendale last weekend.
After the north-enders did so
well in wrestling the country track
crown from the FL Centre Spartans
then went on to acquit themselves
so creditably in the sectional quail
flying meet at San Diego, the Glen
dale results hit hard.
The best the four boys who rep
resented Brawley could do was take
two fifth places for a tWo-point
total. Ell Centre, which was outscor-
ed all the way through in the San
Diego meet by Brawley, knocked
down nine points.
What was the reason for the diff
ference?
Well, part of it was undoubtedly
spelled by Eddie Alarcon, Spartan
Splinter who made eight points by
taking second in both the B 100
and 22O-yard dashes. Alarcon is
a good runner but the Wildcat en-
tries were good too
Bob Austin, who won the 1920
in the county and S. d. meets easily,
failed to show much of anything.
Could the reason be that the Ell
Centre runners arrived at Glendale
a day ahead of time and had plenty
of time to rest up while the Braw-
ley boys went up on a crowded bus
on the day of the meet? We think
So
The Wildcats had no time to get

Rigney, who will be quarantined
with other recruits for the dura-
ton of his training period, would
like to stay at Great Lakes and
pitch this summer-''if it would
help the recruiting situation,
But If they decide to send me to
sea right off, that's okay, too" he
said. I'd sort of like a chance for
combat duty and a crack at those
Japs."
Rigney, for seven years a main
stay of the White Sox pitching
staff, was glad he won his last
/ game-a brilliant 4-3 victory over
Washington Sunday = because 1T
gives me pleasant memory to
take with me-. He hopes to come
back to the majors after the war.
! His only regret was leaving his
bride of seven months, the former

White Sox
Il hate to see him 60" she said.
But there's a job to be done and
I'm glad he can do his part"
