IN THE last two articles it has
been pointed out that we know a
good deal about the way drugs
act, and the methods of our knowl-
edge have been illustrated by de-
scribing. first. the experimental
method and, second, the method OF
trial and error.
There is still another mode of
reasoning by which we arrive at
conclusions, and this may be called
the method Of reasonable eXpecta-

Return of Babe Herman, AZ
Causes Joy in Brooklyn

the runner at first. But that was a
Babe canard-it was another Dodger
That story might have gained
credence because Herman--an earn
est gent on the basepaths-ofce got
up with the bases crammed and sent
a terrific liner to the outfield. One
run scored but Dazzy Vance, who
was on second, pulled up at third
fearing the ball would be caught.
Chick Fewster, on first, steamed
into third followed swiftly by the
head-down running Herman. There
the three stood-all on third. Few
ster thought he was automatically
out and was tagged as he stepped
of the bag. The Babe nonchalantly
logged back toward second looking
over his shoulder to see how his
mates were making out and also
was thrown out. On the bench
Manager Robbie was incoherent.
The Best Liked Yarn.
But the story Flatbushers like
best is the one where Herman got
very indignant over a sportswriter's
account of his getting beaned by a
fly ball. Herman went to the scribe
and offered to bet that he wouldn't t
get hilton the head by fly the rest
of the season. The writer, the story
goes, facetiouSly asked Herman
But how about the shoulders"
The Babe shook his head and re-
piled seriously: The shoulders?
No good, the shoulders don't count.

NEW YORK, July 4.-There is joy
IN Flatbush today for the Babe Is
coming back to the Dodgers.
Branch Hickey made the surprise
announcement that 42-yeaI-old
Floyd (Babe) Herman had been
purchased from the Hollywood Club
of the Pacific Coast League for an
unannounced sum and would be
used as pinch-hitter.
Earned Fame Under Robbie.
1t was as Dodger in the 1926
81 era under the late Uncle Wilbert
tRobbie) Robinson that the Babe
earned his fame. 1t was in the
period when a harassed Robbie,
constantly dumbfounded by the
many antics of his team, stunned
and reshuff1ed his lineup and then
talked it over with taxicab drivers.
The Babe always was a slugger
and had a lifetime major league
batting average of 1926 with the
Dodgers, Cincinnati, Chicago and
Pittsburgh before being shunted out
of the big show in '37. But 1t was
his fielding and getting conked on
the head by f1yballs as well as his
weird base running that left an in
delible mark in Brooklyn's baseball
history.
They once said the Babe hit a
ball out of Ebbets Field with the
bases loaded and only got credited
with a single because he sped past

Under such circumstances only high
priority passengers can be sure of
getting to their destination.
Others not only find their trip inter-
rupted, but frequently find it impossible
to secure other forms of transportation
or hotel accommodations. In spite of
all we can do, they are often badly
inconvenience.
For this unhappy situation, no one can
be blamed. It exists through national
necessity i and the hard fact that we
still have big war to win.
Naturally, if your trip is really vital,
TWA will, as always, make every effort
to take good care of you.
But until we can provide better, more
certain, overall service, we urge you
not to travel unless your trip is
necessary.

What are Your Prospects
for East West Air Travel
without a PRIORITY?

At the present time, TWA is flying
"A about twice as many plane-miles
as before the war.
This is partly due to the recent addi-
ton of airplanes, but also results from
getting nearly twice as much flying
service from each plane we have.
In spite of this increased capacity,
the only honest answer to the above
question is, we regret: mot good.
Here's why:
K The greatest movement of troops of the
war is now under way. 1t is taxing all forms
of transportation airlines included.
X Movement is in both directions. Military
personnel, and other high priority travellers
are moving from west to east as well as east
to west
X Air mail and air cargo have hit new high
levels of volume. Rating as essential, these
take precedence over nonpriority passen-
gers. Since plane can carry only so many
pounds, fights sometimes start with some
empty seats-full cargo compartments.

Lunar Eclipse To Be Visible Here oniqht
 Celestial Show Starts
 About 7:37

Listed among the most important astronomical events of the year is a total lunar eclipse which gets underway tonight at 6:39, when the moon enters the penumbra, which means the partial shadow of the earth. The day, a typical wintry one, clear and bright, is favorable for the occasion.
 The progression of the eclipse when the moon tonight etches the earth's shadow should be quite a show for those in the c.ty's high spots. At 7:37 the moon enters the umbra or inner shadow; about $40 the midle eclipse is reached; about 10 the moon starts to leave the umbra, and about 11:03 the moon is again seen as the most im- portant thing in the sky. Shortly after midnight the moon it quite cut of the shadow of the earth, and the show is over for those who have enjoyed ringside seats.
 The eclipse tonight viii be visible all over the United States, and some Of it in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the western part of the Ind an Ocean. the Atlantic and Arctivc oceans, North and South America, and the extreme part of the Pa cific ocean. The end of the eclipse will also be visible in some of those same areas. With our American population scattered in the four cor ners of the world the eciptic event will be ewed by the boys in the war theater sections as well as by the boys at home.
 A partial eclipse of the moon was visible fast June, and a total eclipse of the sun June 25. 1945.
