SPORTS PARADE
Moore Talks on Series

ter four games in which the boys
sampled the deliveries of their best
throWers, they say they'd rather
face Yankee pitching every day in
the National season than bat
against those Cincinnati mounds
men,"
Could Moore give US a quick CEN
terfield picture of the series and
his reactions as field captain?
Moore could.
He said he was confident the
Cards would take the series now
that they had an advantage of
three games to one. But he said
this confidence was nothing new,
because:
I'VE played the Yanks exhibition
games in spring training, and we
beat them six out of nine The
Yanks complained that they were
not in condition, although they were
using their key players. And, of
course, we were not in condition
either. But we're a thousand per
cent better team now than the ex-
pertinent outfit that beat the YankS
in the spring. We were only ma
terial then, but we're a machine
noW-and a good one. When we
started this series we knew we
were on fighting edge. Since Aug.
5, when we were 101a games behind
the Dodgers, we had only two or
three easy games. The rest were
dog fights. We fought every step
of the way to the pennant.

Providing Proper

A canvass to determine the vol
ume of patients handled by Wash
ington physicians, and the approx
mate number to whom they have
found 1t impossible to render medi-
cal care, is to be made by the,
Medical Society of the District of

terday.
When these data are obtained, a
Committee on Medical Services rep.
resenting every area will be set up
to keep q constant check on the
situation, according to DR.. A. Ma
gruder Macdonald, president OF the
medical society. Experience has
demonstrated, he said, that some
sections of Washington are in
greater need of doctors than others.
Supply Held Adequate.
Pending the facts to be revealed
by the survey, DIR. Macdonald said
he felt there is an adequate supply
of doctors for present services, If
proper distribution Is achieved.
"One cannot foresee what the
medical situation in the District will
be six months or even one month
from now" DR.. Macdonald said.
But the public can be certain that
the medical profession will put forth
every effort to meet all demands
made upon it,"
Emphasizing that medical prac-
tice as usual is out for the duration
and the public must realize it can
not expect pre-war service" Presi-
dent Macdonald cited various ways
in which the public can ease the
situation caused by so many
physicians entering the armed serv-
ices.
Health Suggestions.
Here are a few suggestions DR..
Macdonald said Take proper pre-
cautions with your health. Obtain
plenty of rest. Avoid excesses of
any kind This warning should be
kept in mind during the holidays.
Dress warmly and do not permit
yourself to become chilled. In the

DECICCO CASE GETS UNDERWAY Alien Control Board te Hold Hearing in Hart-
 ford Today

The Alien Control Board wa scheduled to consider the case o1 Pasquale DeCicco, Italian vice con- sul at New Haven for 20 years ai Hartford today to determine whether he should be detained 0I interned as an Axis alien.
 Local residents of Italian birth have come to the front in defense of MT. DeCicco and 1t is expected that their statements will be con. sidered by the board.
 DeCicco was taken Into custody April 23 following 8 raid at his home by FBr agents and Marshal Bernard Fitch.
 The filing cabinet and a radio were among articles removed from his residence during the search.
 A resident of this country for more than thirty years, DeCicco served as Italian vice consul at New Haven until all consulates were closed last summer by presi- dential order, whereupon he be- came connected with an insurance agency.
 Although DeCicco apparently be- came 8 naturalized citizen of this country before the last war, 1t is believed the government may con- tend that he lost his citizenship through his oath of allegiansce to Italy in that conflict. He answered the call when his Italian reserve class was caleld in 1915.

 DEATH PROBED
Newark, N. J., Affair Proves Embarrassing to
 Local Couple on Visit

Newark, Y. j., May 3-A eoroner's verdict of suicide added "flnis" % a police investigation which for Q few minutes embarrassed Q prori- inent Waterbury dentist and his wife who were spending the week end as the guests of pr. Benjamin Jacobs, ITS High Street.
 Miss Esther Lazarus, an acquain- tance of pr. Jacobs selected the roof of the apartment block in which pr. Jacobs resided as the scene of her farewell exit. After swallowing Q quantity of poison the young woman climbed down Q fire escape to what she apparently be- lieved was the window of pr. Jacobs apartment, but which was actually floor below. The tenant of the third floor apartment found her body yesterday morning.
 It developed in the course of the investigation that the parents of the young woman had called at the home of Dr. Jacobs in search of their daughter, but received no re- sponEo on ringing his doorbell.
 Dr. and Mrs. Max Matzkin of Waterbury were occupying Dr. Jacobs apartment during his ab- sence. They did not answer the bell.
 The police recorded the girls death as suicide on finding her handbag on the roof with written instructions to pr. Jacobs as to where she wished to be buried near his mothers grave.
