Selected Poem


by Carl John Bostelmann in theh New York SUM-
have raised dream from dross, and out OF stone
have lured music; have sought and found
The fiery bush that sprouted from the ground
Where no root reached to water; have known
The solitude of one who walks alone
On far, forbidden roads; have heard sound
In silence, of voice that would astound
The world yet never said it was my own
Forever walls will open gates to me
When I come seeking for the way to go;
And always, where Iseek, discovery
Provides me truth. Now have learned to know
That only hunger is my heritage
I serve my need in endless pilgrimage.

CACHEXIA AMERICANA

According to Webster cachexia
is "a condition of general Ill heath
with malnutrition and wasting of
the body, due to some chronic con-
stitutional affection such as tuber-
culosis or cancer
According to Stedman's Medical
Dictionary cachexia is "a general
lack of nutrition and wasting oc-
curing in the course of chronic
disease
According to Webster, malnutri-
ton is faulty or imperfect nutri-
ton and nutrition is 1.-The sum of
the processes by which animal or
plant absorbs, or takes in and util-
ICES, food substances"
Webster makes more out of
cacheXia than Stedman does, but
when it comes to nutrition, Sted-
man it comes to nutrition, Stedman
makes Webster look like sixth
grade schoofboy. Stedman defines
nutrition as follows:
"A functional of living plants
and animals, consisting in the
taking in and assimilation through
chemical changes (metabolism)
of material whereby tissue is
built up and energy liberated; its
successive stages are known as
digestion, absorption, assimilation,
and eXcretion; in highly organized
mastication and deglutition, and
animals digestion is preceded by
excretion is effected by expira-
ton, perspiration, urination and
defecation.
Anyway it is good to know that
the victim with cachexia Is not
necessarily affected with cancer,
tuberculosis or any such grave maj
ady. In fact the vast majority of
people with general i'll health and
malnutrition" have no particular
disease a doctor can specifically
name. They just have poor health,
lack strength, lack vitality, lack i'm
munity, cannot work or play and
enjoy life as they should. This is
especially true of growing children
and youths.
For many years physicians in
America have recognized in children
from kindergarten to high school
and college age an under par condi-
ton which they have called cachexie
scholastica.' The characteristic fea-
lures of cachexia scholastica are
finicky appetite, disordered diges-
ton, poor assimilation, unnatural
irritability bordering on hysteria in
some instances, fabby muscles,
quick fatigability and chronic IA
tigue, poo posture, deficient power
of attention, poor memory. suaily
the young person is underweight
and often has simple nutritional
anemia. If a girl has cachexia
scholastica mother generally tries
to pamper her, which is unfortunate
for the girls physical and mora
health. If boy has cachexla
scholastica mother just worries.
One comman mistake made by the
parents of school children with this
nutditional deficiency is that they
encourage the child to avade the
precious little physical education
child can get in school.

BY JUDSON BAILEY

NEW YORK, Jan. IL Up
Although basebalrs Hall of
Fame at Cooperstown has en-
shrined rs of the games immor-
tails, it still lacks third base
man. This has caused various
persons concern from time to
time, but it finally has fired at
least one man to action.
Bob Stedler, veteran sports
editor of the Buffalo On. "
Evening News, opened formal
campaign this week to bring
about the election of his fellow
townsman, James j. (Jimmy)
Collins, famous third baseman
of the 1905 and early l900s.
In the opinion of Stedler, who
has been writing sports for four
decades, the comparative young
sters who are now writing base
ball and whose votes select the
stars for places in the Hall of
Fame, should have someone call
their attention to the merits of
a standout whom they never
saw.
There being no logical objec-
ton to this, he has circularized
all members of the Baseball
Writers Association of America
in recent days to point out Col
Inns. The spotlight showed many
qualifications.
Collins played 19 years in the
big leagues with the Braves
and Red Sox and the Philadel-
phia Athletics and in Sted-
ler's judgment revolutionized
the art of guarding the "hot cor
ner." While with the Boston Ma
tionals he was the first third
baseman to stop the deadly
bunting game of the Baltimore
Orioles, led by McGraw, Keller
and Jennings.
During his career he was the
leading fielder at his position in
both the National and American
Leagues and in five seasons he
batted we'll over 800. In 1898,
when his batting average was
1897, he collected IS home runs
