Faloney, who was planning to
coach the backfield for the Cal

fore he was commissioned in the

Tommy o'Connell and Jimmy

year, are not playing again.
Boiling should have an entirely
new backfield made up Of Falo-

Orioles praised O'Malley's "cour-
age" for moving the seven regu-
lar games and said he'd like the
Orioles to play in the eighth.
Besides the National League
games, O'Malley had said he
wants an exhibition with an

Gives Up Series Switch
o'Malley also toyed with the
idea of shifting the Dodgers
World Series games from Ebbets
Field to Yankee Stadium this fall
but abandoned the idea.
BY transferring their series
home games to Yankee Stadium,
the Dodgers figured to accom-
modate an additional 100000
cash customers. That would bring
in approximately another $780,
900 and wipe out any deficit
accrued during the regular sea-
son.
In 1858, when the two teams
last met in a World Series, three
games at Ebbets Field drew 108,-

This and That .

How do you explain a cemetery to
a very young child?
This is the problem of a Washington
grandmother. who writes:
I'VE don't have to write to New York,
when we have our own Mr.. T.
MY daughter has just moved close
to beautiful cemetery.
"Her 2-year-old son, like Templeton
Jones' takes things in his stride, and
assumed they were building something
with all those stones but what shall
we say to his 3h-year-old sister,"
Such matters usually take care Of
themselves.
Education of the young is not just
a matter of school. 1t is three fold
school, parents and ones contem-
poraries, of whatever age.
Most children learn about death,
which is the hardest fact of life, in
natural way. mostly without any scars
whatever.
Probably most of their elders have
no recollection of how or when they
came into such knowledge.
The church is built on death.
Every communion has its own way Of
explaining such facts.
Todays children, even the littlest,
want the truth.

permitted organized solicitation for

cellent chairman of the 1855 Cancer

The Dope Law Really Works

Testimony from an authoritative
source that the Districts drug addict hos
pitalization law is working effectively, after
a discouragingly slow start, is contained in
the transcript of hearings on the Federal
Narcotics Bureau budget Commissioner
Anslinger, who with other officials was con-
cerned last year over the few commitments
made under the new law, has informed
Congress that the picture has greatly i'm
proved in recent months. The change is
the direct result of fine teamwork by police,
prosecutors and judges
Last October The Star revealed in
series of articles that the compulsory hos
pitalization law, which went into effect last
May, had been invoked only twice in six
months. Interviews with various officials
indicated that there was a lack of under
standing in some quarters as to the me-
chanics of the laws administration. There
also was singular lack of coordination
among the agencies charged with share

From This Cornucopio

The United States has reason to take
pride in the opening of its new international
School of Nuclear Science and Engineering
at the Argonne National Laboratory in
Lemont, Illinois. For this setting
educational venture, the first of its kind
anywhere in the world, constitutes a sig
nif1cant step forward in our country's
earnest effort to make reality of President
Eisenhower's atoms-for-peace plan.
AS established by the Atomic Energy
Commission, the new school is making its
bow with an intensive sevenmonth train
ing session for class of 40 scientists and
engineers-nine of them from our own
country and 81 from 19 other free nations
representing every continent on the face of
the globe. The prime purpose of the under
taking will be to teach these students how
the atom can be harneSsed to produce i'm
mense blessing for the whole of mankind
in such fields as health, agriculture and in
duStrial power
To that end, the projected courses will
concentrate primarily on the design, con-
struction and operation of nuclear reactors
for research, for producing electricity and
for numerous other benef1cent uses. And
the expectation is that the foreign students
in this pioneering claSS-Which presumably
will be followed each year by classes of the
same kind-Will learn their lessons we'll
enough to return to their homelands to
teach their countrymen in way that
will build up abroad ever-growing numbers
of experts and specialists in the arts and
techniques of making the atom mans serv-
ant rather than his destroyer.
The fundamental meaning of this
unique enterprise has been well summed up
by Dr. w. Kenneth Davis, chief of the Aces
reactor-d development program. Thus, as he
declared last night at the Chicago dinner
for members of the first Lemont class,
"atomic energy can enrich or obliterate
mankind. We here in the United States
are convinced that not only can it enrich
but that it must be used for the common
good. 1t is in this spirit that this new
international reactor school has been estab-
lshed. At this school. . we can demon
Strate that the wellSprings of nature are
deep and sufficient to nourish us all. From
this cornucopia can emerge the knowledge
and skillS that will demonstrate the falli-
bility of the Malthusians and confound
those who claim that only by revolution and
blood can man as a whole reap the benefits
of nature and his labor"
OF course, as pointed out at the same
dinner by Morehead Patterson, who has
charge of negotiations on the atoms-for-
peace plan, great deal of time will have
to pass before the full potentials of nuclear
energy can be realized. But there can be
no doubt, as both he and DR.. Davis have said,
that the new school at Lemont can play
vital role in speeding up the advent of
that day. In that sense, certainly, it is a
venture full of genuinely bright promise for
all the world

Free-WheeIine and Nature, Too

Readers of Washington newspapers
are being increasingly subjected to
much propaganda concerning the pos
sible desecration of Rock Creek Park
due to the possible inroad of modern
highways running through it. So much
so that one suspects an organized at
tempt from a minority group trying
to forestall the only possible solution
to the Northwest Washington traffic
problem.
Any engineer will tell you that a
dual-lane parkway readily could be
constructed in a truly rustic vein that
would take very little away from the
parks charm. This would also tend
to make the unadorned beauties of this
wonderful park accessible daily to the
many thousands of motorists who
would wend their way downtown
through its delightful environs.
1t seems to this reader that as a
public park it is dedicated for the
benefit of all and everyone alike: not
merely for hideout for handful of
people who now use it only a few
months out of the year. My childhood
was spent in Washington and I en-
Joyed many hours in Rock Creek Park
and the Zoo. To me modern parkway
would make it accessible to more
people.
A modern parkway from the north
ern extremities of Rock Creek all
the way through Potomac Park, con-
Meeting with the Potomac and Ana
costa River bridges in the south and
east. would go long way to solve the
traffic muddle our city planners have
left us by blocking out so many
through streets.
Only in this way are we going to be
in keeping with the times. That is to
have adequate highways for rapid
movement of the population whether
in peace or disaster.
Henry I. Taylor.
