CLEVELAND MAKES
 BID FOR FLAG IN
 AMERICAN LEAGUE
pv RALPH RIDDEN

Tie fire wagon cnase for the American League pennant has i reached the win-or-else stage and Cleveland has picked this oppor- tune moment to catch fire.
 While the league-leading Boston Red Sox and the third-place New York Yankees are shc9ing signs of faltering, Manager Lou Boudreau' $ Indians are setting the hottest pace in the league.
 The Indians scored their sixth straight victory, the 18th in their last Is starts last night in defeat- ing the Philadelphia Athletics, 6-3. The victory enasled the pennant hungry tribe to stay half game behind the Red Sox and a half game ahead of the Tanks. The Red Sox downed Detroit, 7-2, and the Tanks staggered to an 8-7 tri- umph over St. Louis in day games.
 Joe Gordon, who helped the Tanks win five pennants, sparked the Indians to victory last night He drove in three runs on his 18th homer, a double and single and fig ured in four of the five double plays pulled off by the Tribe.
 The defeat virtually eliminated the Athletics from the pennant fight,
 The Tanks also were forced to come from b h in to nip the Browns. Trailing 5-3 going into the sixth, the Tanks scored twice to tie the score. They moved ahead in the seventh on three singles and clinched the game in the eighth when Joe DiMaggio singles home two runs. Earlier in the game Di- Maggie poled his 39th homer.
 The Brooklyn Dodgers broke their tie with the Cardinals for second place in the National League, clip ping the Chicago Cubs, Az while the Cards were idle. The victory moved the Dodgers within five and ore half games of the pace-setting Boston Braves. The Braves sched- uled game with the Cincinnati Reds was washed off the books because of rain. The Reds don't meet Bos- ton again, so there is no oppor- tunity to play off the game.
 The Philadelphia Phillies, paced by Del Ennis, took a day-night doubleheader from the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-3 and "A.
 Ennis cracked his 29th and 30th homers, one in each game, and drove in five runs as the Phils ex- tended Pittssurghs losing streak to six games

zALE, (ERDAN BOUT BIG EVENT TONIGHT,
 IN FI5TlC CIRCLES
By JACK HAND

JERSEY CITY, N. J. Sept. 21.- Northampton Tony zale is a solid 2 to favorite to thump Marcel Cerdan, the French challenger, to- night at Roosevelt Stadium in an attractive middleweight title bout that opens the big boxing week of the fall season.
 An optimistic estimate from the promoters, the tournament of champions, calls for a crowd ot 25,000 and a gross gate of $500, 900. About l6,O00 and s250,0O0 may be closer. A cool, clear night is pre- |dicted.
 Due to last minute cancellation |of the heavyweight elimination contest" between Gus Lesnevich and Jersey Joe Walcott the top price of the Jersey extravaganza was sliced from $40 to $50 Zale and Cerdan also signed new contracts, calling for sl20,000 guarantee with Ia privilege of 40 per cent for the champ and s4O.0OO or 20 per cent for Cerdan.
 The fight has all the makings |of thriller. Zale, 34-year- old vet who used to sweat it out in the Gary. Ind, steel mills, flattened Rocky Graziano in the third round to regain his championship at New ark three months ago. Cerdan, a willing trader with great stamina, is unbeaten in four American starts.

LOUIS C0MEKEY
 IN EXHIBITION GO:
 E(HAMp TALKS BB
By AR1nuR EDISON

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2l.-Pl- Right now, Joe Louis seems more interested in talking baseball than anything else.
 He was cornered in his dressing room last night, after he had gone six snappy rounds of an exhibition hout with Pat Comiskey of Pater- son, N. J.
 Here's what the heavyweight champion of the world had to say:

 I've wired Larry Dolby Cleveland cutfielder) for tickets to the Cleve- land-Red Sox game Wednesday,"
 Then, after a. moments thought:
 "Comiskey don't run away like some fellows I know-Joe Walcott and Billy Conn.,
 Obviously Louis prefers someone who will stand up and slug, and in this Comiskey was his man.
 Coniskey could afford to he Grave. Both boxers wore 16-ounce gloves. And so he pounded away furiously, particularly in the fourth and sixth rounds.
 Yet the best Comiskey could dc

To Montgomery Countiuns

Some Montgomery County friends have
asked The Star to place before the resi-
dents of that prosperous community a
modest appeal for funds. Money is wanted
to help meet expenses of the newly formed
Montgomery Symphony Orchestra Asso-
clatlon. Now, wait minute! This is
new sort of symphony. The musicians
and about hundred have registered
charge nothing for their services In fact,
each of them who plays in the orchestra
will pay fee of two dollars. That is
something new under the sun! The con-
certs are free. The money will pay for
such things as sheet music and overtime
for the school janitors who keep the school
auditorium open. There will be three con-
certS this year and the first rehearsal was
highly successful. While the Montgomery
Junior College is sponsor of the under
taking as part of adult education, it has
no funds to meet even incidental expenses.
So it relies on the civic spirit of generous
residents who are willing to contribute
something for an experiment in music of
the people, by the people and for the
people. 1t sounds to The Star like some
thing worth while.
Evening star., 1948-09-30
New Look in Tux Collections

Several Star readers have written indig-
nant letters of protest over what one OF
them calls the new look'' in assessing
household effects for personal property
taxation.
The tax in question is bad tax. 1t
makes liars of many otherwise honest
citizens 1t is physical imposSibility to
apply the tax equitably, for each citizen
becomes his own assessor. In The Stars
opinion the tax ought to be wiped off the
books. But revenue deficiencies make that
improbable. Therefore it is important to
have system that seeks some fair method
of measuring what the taxpayer should
pay. Such a system is now in operation
and description of it's principles may be
enlightening in view of the protests.
BY comparing thousands of personal tax
returns with real estate tax bills the asses
sors have struck list of averages. These
averages are the estimated valuation OF
household effects in relation to the assessed
value of home, not including land. There
Is an exemption of $1,000 on household
effects, so the figure in the second column
below is the net, or taxable value. Here is
an example of how the averages run:

BURGERS Beware

1t would be good thing if those who
set themselves up as experts in the art of
giving advice on the care and feeding of
unruly infants would get together on their
stories.
To one of generation who had thought
that the burp was the answer to weary
floor walking fathers prayer 1t comes as
q distinct shock to be told at this late stage
of the game that he has been living in
FOOLS paradise. There was a time when
squalling infant was looked upon as a
necessary evil. The feeding-time yells
went with the offspring so to speak, and
the groggy parents having no alternative,
made the best of bad situation.
Then came the discovery of the burp.
When junior baked in the middle of his
bottle, or even worse, when he raised the
roof with protests which seemed far beyond
the capacity of infant lungs, good burp
would always do the trick IL of the books
on child care approved, vAi many is the
father who can remember that warm inner
glow of pride and dissatisfaction which
comes when the all-is-well signal is
sounded by the young hopeful.
But now comes Dr. william F. Burdick,
of the Georgetown Medical School, to
sound a warning note. He cautions against
excessive burping and says that the nurses
and the baby books have gone off the deep
end on this score. To make matters worse,
the Connecticut State Health Department
chimes in with the observation that if
worst comes to worst and baby has to be
burped, it should be done by laying him
across the knees and stroking his back.
The old system of placing him across a
shoulder and humping him on the back
Is out.
Those who belong to the old fashioned
