Mats Finally in Cellar,
Hope 10 Avert Being
Worst in 40 Years
By Burton Howkins

A dank, musty odor assailed
the Mats nostrils in their new
quarters today. Nestled in the
American League basement, the
Mats have one necessarily re-
stricted ambition remaining. They
have little left to battle for except
to avoid being branded the worst
Washington team in 40 years.
The Mats are operating as if
that title is destined to be be-
slowed on them. Anything less
than 18 victories in their remain
ing 80 games will present Wash
ington with its most feeble record
since 1909, and the Mats future
isn't bright.
Dealt an 18th successive defeat,
40, by Boston yesterday, the Mats
have scored one run in 80 innings.
That run, stemming from an error,
an infield single and a pop fly
which fell safely, was unearned.
Over that span the Mats have ac-
cumulated Is hits.
Next Stop Is Cleveland.
Finally rid of the Red Sox, who
climbed back into the pennant
scramble over the Mats dead bod
les, Washington will head into
more trouble tomorrow night at
Cleveland when it opens a West
ern invasion. The Mats, who have
compiled two losing streaks of IL
games and two others of seven,
will be trying to avert their long
est display of ineff1ciency against
the Indians.
Against Cleveland. Manager Joe
Kuhel plans to employ Ray Scar
borough and Mickey Harris in
a two-game series. Both Ray and
Mickey have aged considerably
since last notching a victory in
a starting assignment. Despite
pitching some creditable games,
Harris hasn't won since joining
the Mats on June IA and Scar
borough hasn't been victorious
in a starting role since June is.
Defeated "a times in 38 games,
the Mats can show one win over
first division club in the last
six weeks. They achieved that
triumph over Philadelphia, stag
gering to an 81 win on a wild
pitch after squirting into a TO
lead.
Kramer Finds Mats Easy.
Washington plopped into the
dungeon yesterday when its latest
loss was accompanied by the st.
Louis Browns split with Detroit
in a double-header. Jack Kramer.
a soft stuff pitcher who had won
three previous gemes-one at the
Mats expense-stopped Washing
ton with seven hits and permitted
only two Mats to advance to third
base.
Sid Hudson was nicked for two
runs in the fourth inning. He
clipped Al Zarilla on the leg, Ted
Williams. and Vern Stephens fol-
lowed with singles and Birdie
Tebbetts delivered a grounder
that fetched Williams across from
third base. ..
Merrill Combs single, walk, a
grounder and. Dom DiMaggio's fly
produced 80 lead in the seventh
and Boston boosted the score to
its final proportions in the eighth
when Williams lifted a triple
against the rightf1eld wall and,
scored on StephenS' single,

Should the st. Louis Cardinals
brilliant pennant drive end in
failure, the blame perhaps could
be traced to last January 20.
That was the day Robert Han
negan, then president Of the Cards,
sold Murry Dickson, a front line
|pitcher. to the Pittsburgh Pirates,
The transaction brought $l25,00O
in cash to st. Louis. but no players
Dickson, prominent factor in the
Redbirds' 1943 and '46 champion
ships, won IL games for the Cards
in 1948. He also was helpful in
relief.
Dickson has not Jared we'll in
Pittsburgh. The little right
handler from Tracy. Mo-, has been
able to win only six games this
season, but four Of them have
been over his former mates. He's
made six starts against the Cards
and has yet to pitch a bad game.
His two losses to them came by
4-3 and 81 scores.
The Redbirds faced a golden op-
portunity to open their biggest
lead of the year over Brooklyn
az games-yesterday. They had
just whipped the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates, 40, in the first game of a
double-header while the Dodgers
were losing to Boston, SO. That
gave the front-running Cards a
two-game bulge. A victory in the
second game would increase their
margin to two and a half games.
Dickson Hurls Two Hitter.
But they reckoned not with
their former pitching star. Murry
not only beat them, but shut
them out with two singles. The
score was 80. He had a no.
hitter until Solly Hemus singled
in the fifth. Enos Slaughter's
safety was the only other st.
Louis hit. So instead of 212 games,
the Cards lead is now game and
a half.
Fred Martin, a repatriate from
the Mexican League, pitched the
AZ win for the Cards. He scat
tered five hits, two of them home
runs. Ralph Kiner hit his 34th
for the Pirates in the fourth.
Catcher Clyde Mccullough also
homered.
Nippy Jones paced st. Louis
nine-hit attack on Bill Werle and
Rip Sewell with three doubles
and a single. Slaughter drove in
two runs with a mighty triple off
the rightfield wall.
Pete Castiglione and Dino Res
telli sparked the Pirates in the
second game. Castiglione had a
two-run homer and double. Res
telli hit a two-run homer and
single. Harry Brecheen was the
victim.
Bill Voiselle pitched the Braves
to their shutout victory over the
Dodgers. 1t marked the Braves
second straight whitewashing of
the Brooks. 1t was Voiselle's sixth
triumph, .four of them shutouts,
He has beaten the Dodgers three
times.

tory proves this to be so.
If it hadn't been for the Cards, every
World Series in the last quarter Of century
except two would have been won by the Amer
ican League. In 1910 the Cincinnati Reds
nosed out Detroit and back in 1888 the New

The Problem OF Jealousy
by David Taylor Marke
AP Education Writer

Parents are becoming more and
more aware that jealousy in chill
dren is often a very real problem.
And not knowing what to do about
Il, many parents are worried. Per-
haps they have one baby and are
thinking Of having another, or they
have two children and may have
noticed signs Of jealousy in one or
the other.
you will run into jealousy, /"
says DR. Edmund Ziman, former
psychiatrist at st. Elizabeths Hos
pital, Washington, d. c. lecturer
at the medical schools Of George
Washington University and Mary
land University and presently as
sociated with the William Alanson
White Psychiatric Institute and the
Washington Baltimore Psychoan-
alytic Institute. Whether you have
two children or ten children, there
will still be jealousy; and II you
have only one child. you will still
run into iealousv"
DR.. Ziman has Just written a
book. Jealousy in Children; A
Guide For Parents" "a. A. Wyh,
New York;. He says: "There will
be jealousy, but the depth Of jeal-
Gus feeling will vary with each
child. It will depend on his rela-
tionship to his parents, his pre-
paration for the coming Of a new
baby, and his parents attitude to.
ward him in general: whether they
they enjoy him and love him, OI
whether their affection depends on
his good behavior. It will depend
too, on whether both parents un-
derstand the child's upsets and
whether both agree on the ap-
prOach to his problems. But while
jealousy in children is almost com.
pletely unavoidable, it need not be-
come problem"
On the other hand, If jealousy is
permitted to exist without being
recognized. it can be very serious
he says. Educators, psychologists
psychoanalysts, and pediatricians
now agree that where emotional

Barn Chores Can Be

d nnnoLleed for vears. The "a.

ed unnOticed for years. The second
step IS to correct them.
Check your barn for loose objects
for things that may cause falls.
High door sills, abrupt changes in
floor levels. weak boards, prOtrud-
ing cleats or other tripping hazards
should be removed. All floors
should be solid. smooth and con-
tinuOus. DO some h0usecleaning
and set things in order IL the alley-
ways or work areas are obstructed
with feed, tools. harness, feed carts
or other obstacles. Don't work in
the dark; see that dangerous cor
ners and work centers are we'll
lighted Avoid storing loose mat
erials overhead and see that forks
or other barn equipment are kept
in safe places.
Loft doors, feed chutes and lad
ders need special attention. A well
constructed stairway that is hand
rallied and kept clean provides the
safest and easiest passage to hay
mows. It is dangerous to use
stairwells as feed chntes because
loose hay or straw makes footing
uncertain. Separate feed chutes
with guards above the loft floor
are desirable. Where a ladder is
used see that il extends well above
the loft floor. It should also have
well-spaced stout rungs that are
placer far enough from the wall
for secure footing. All elevated
platforms should be equipped with
a railing and accessible from a safe
ladder.

problems are recognized early en-
Ough. and something is done about
them, there viii be fewer emotional
difficulties later in life.
Jealousy which bOthers adults
is not quite the same as a child's
jealousy, he says. In a child It is
a perfectly normal reaction; usual
ly It is an unconscious attitude or
feeling which bOthers him and
makes him as uncomfortable as 1t
does his parents. It is the poor
handling, the acknowledgement, Of
jealousy which causes trouble, not
feeling itself; it is the failure of
the parents to recognize the exis-
tonse Of jealousy, or their down
right suppression Of it, that pro-
duces such unhappy results.
We can say that a child is jeal-
GUS when he wants something some
one else has. The child who is trO-
bled has to find some way Of show
ing 1t. A twO-year-old, for example,
may revert TO his .nfantile habits of
TO toilet training. Or, he may strike
his infant sister or pull her out of
her crib, or worse.
But DR.. Ziman says he shouldn't
be regarded with horror, IL his par
ents have suddenly discovered they
were harboring a monsted. They
cannot get very far by furnishing
him because they have not reas-
sured him that he has not lost their
love. In fact punishment at such
times will only help convince him
that he has lost their love.
A little child needs to feel loved
and needs to have this love demon
strated even more when there is a
new baby. The reinsurance that he
belongs, that he is still very much
loved that he was and is a nice
child, needs repetition over and ov-
er in both words and acts.
