Youth Rally
I HAVE just spen an evening be-
hind the Iron Curtain. It's not
hard to do here in Berlin where no
guards patrol the line between the
Russian and American sectors and
where, if you flash a White House
press card and look reasonably im-
portant, you can attend even the
most exclusive of the Communist
youth shows.
Berlin tonight is a city of vivid
dramatic contrast--miles of bunt-
lng and flags everywhere, flags of
every nation but particularly and
ironically the flags of peace. Sand-
wiched in between almost every na-
tional flag is the blue and white em-
blem of peace. Standing out
against the gaunt bomb-gutted
ruins of Berlin, they made a gen-
uine appeal to the tired population
which never wants to see war again.
Across from the Kaiser's once-
ornate palace which the Russians
tore down and removed piece by
piece, a great platform stood in
front of the bomb-battered museum.
The inside was an empty shell but
outside a Russian ballet, a girl in
Georgian costume, and Finnish
folk dancers all performed. It was
Russia's youth exhibition and you
had to admit it was good. Light-
ing, acoustics and staging were all
perfect; the music excellent and
the dancing superb. I couldn't tell
what the girl in the Georgian cos-
tume said when she sang a ballaQ
dedicated to Stalin and I don't
think many of the German Com-
munists could, either. But they
liked her voice and applauded Just
the same.
Rally No Flop
To read the headlines in Amer-
ican newspapers you got the im-
press/on that the Berlin youth rally
was a flop. It wasn't. No rally
which brings 2,000,000 youngsters
together from all parts of the world
is a flop and it's no use kidding
ourselves.

Work for Commissioner
Just about every time we turn
around and face a new direction
we seem to find more work for the
new baseball commissioner.
We have heard many arguments
that the new commissioner will
have little to do.

which really brought down the
house was that in which she throw8
three grenades into an American
camp. Three Americans then tear
her clothes half off and take turns
beating her while she takes from
her blouse the flag of the PeOples
Republic. Then, just as the Amer-
icans fie her to a tree preparing to
shoot her, a shot rings out and
Korean guerrillas come to her res-
cue. The heroine then shoots an

European press.

The National League has a far
fairer rule. "Unfinished games in
Philadelphia or Pittsburgh are
simply called suspended games,"
says Ford Frick. "They must be
finished later. I might add that I
am in favor of games called hy
rain after the fourth inning. A game
is legal after four and a half or
five innings. But I don't believe in
four and oae half and flve-ining ball
games. I'd like to see such games
completed later."
Ford Frick happens to be one of
the most farsighted of all the group
that run ba4eball. He certainly
has a big jump on the American
League in this respect.
Just how and why the American
League could stand for these in-
complete games is beyond most of
US.
You would think that such sports-
men as Tom Yawkey, Dan Top-
ping, Del Webb, Walter Briggs,
Ellis Ryan and others would have
seen this half-game weakness years
ago.
This is one of the many reasons
that a hard-boiled commissioner is
needed, of the Judge Landis type
--although Judge Landis along with
Happy Chandler had nothing to
say about this weak spot in base-
ball's make.up.
It's about time someone did.

The Racing Race
In the past few years one stable,
Calumet, has dominated racing to
a large extent. Maine Chance

years back when Mrs. Graham bad

Last year Mrs. Dodge Sloan's
Brookmeade, handled by Preston
Burch, took over. Those were the
only two gaps in Calumet's winning
record.
It is now different in the waning
season of 1951. Calumet is still
strong. But so are Brookmeade,

stable and one or two others, in-
eluding C. V. Whitney. Citation

Predicts Intensity
Polio Cases for 1951
ANN ARBOR -- Approximately
27,000 cases of polio will occur in
!the United States during 1951, a
University of Michigan school of
public health statistician has pre-
dicted.
"There are a number of reasons
for supposing that 1951 will be a
far less severe year for polio than
the record year of 1949 during
which about 43,000 cases were re-
ported," Dr. Fay M. Hemphill in-
dicated.
Dr. Hemphill's "guesstimate" is
based on figures supplied to him
through the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis, Inc., by
the United States public health
service which receives weekly re-
ports from the various state health
departments throughout the na-
tion,
Since June, 1950, he has been
making a continuous statistical
study of the areas and number of
polio cases occurring in the Unit-
ed States. His studies are spon-
sored by grants from the National
Foundation for Infantile Par-
alysis, Inc.

HADACOL Helps Folks Who Suffer Stomacb
Distress and Sleeplessness Caused by an
Upset Stomach, If Due to a Deficiency of
Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron
Life is wonderful when you feel
well. And in order to feel well, folks
just must get a good night's sleep,
but that is sometimes pretty diffi-
cult when you suffer from stomach
distress• Mrs. Evelyn Cameron of
1844 48th Avenue, San Francisco,
California, says this used to be her
problem. She suffered with stomach
distres and bloating which pre-
vented her from getting a full
night's sleep. Then she heard how
folks who suffered from these ail-
ments when due to deficiencies of
Vitamins Bl, B2, Niacin and Iron
were being helped by today's great
HADACOL. Mrs. Cameron started
taking HADACOL and soon felt so
much better. Now she says that
she thinks HADACOL is marvelous
and is more than happy to recom-
mend it.
Here is what she says : "1 used to
have such stomach distress--would
have so much bloating after meals.
This was not only very uncomfort-
able but prevented me from sleep-
ing. 1 would go to bed and then not
be able to sleep. I started taking
HADACOL---I had heard so much
about it. Well, after just a couple of
weel ! felt so much better. I was
no longer boIhered with my stem-
ash, and 1 could sleep so wonder-
fully well. I go to bed now and get
a full night's sleep. I wake up in
the morning feeling so fresh and
re, ted. HADACOL is eertainly mar-
velous and I am more than happy
to recommend iI."
Yes, HADACOL makes it pos-
sible to actually relieve the REAL
CAUSE of stomach distress and
sleeplessness due to an uuset stom-
ach when due to deficiencies of
Vitamins B, Bs, Niacin and Iron in
the system.
AND EVEN MORE IMPOR-
TANT! Continued use of this great
HADACOL not only gives continu-
ous complete relief but helps pre-
vent these ailments from returning

absorbed and assimilated in the

immediately.
