bad fracture jacks temporary retirement is a bad blow to the leafs ambition to climb out of the cellar and into a playoff spot as his big bat will be missed he was leading the club in runs batted out whenhe got hurt but the leafs hopes of moving jp in the stretch are heartened by the fact that fourteen of the road games left on the schedule will be played with baltimore and montreal their nearest

the day we teu ourselves that the week is not nec essarily a total failure yet and that there is still time to get something useful acompushed if we hurry how ever since it is midweek this day us uauy serves as somewhat of a breather too much shouldnt be attempted thursday is definitely a day in the latter half of the week and hence one in which we should begin to taper off from the strenuous ardors of the three previous days hard work on this day is out of the question and tiw wise person guards against overexer tton friday is practically the beginning of the weekend and is hence devoted largely to planning a sensible schedule for the next two days little actual business should oe attempted saturday is the day of recreation on this day we decide to stay at the office and catch up with

thousands cubed op cancer cancer takes a bll in canada of a thousand lives a month in spite of this serious situation there is a strong note of encourage- me it in an authoritative statement in the summer number of health this health league journal dr harold wbokey declares that the great ad vances in surgery radium and x ray have changed the cancer outlook there are thousands of people says dr wbokey alive and well today who have been cured of cancer the do not advertise the fact that they have had the disease and the general public think only of the tragic case that have come under their immediate notice in consequence a very pesi mistic outlook is held aid the fear and dread of the disease is in most people it can be truthfully said that if cancer is lecognlzed early i can be cured ui the majority of cases the fact still remains however that in our large hospital peopteare coming in for the first time with the disease in an advanced stage this is partly due to lack of knowledge and often the patient has deliberate concealed the condition from his immediate family and friends thoughout the world commitee for the control of cancer are being organised but 11 is felt that if the work is to be of real value there must be the cooperation of the man on the street the chief objection to cancer edu cation s the danger of making people unduly apprehensive but this must be risked the most important thing for the public to know is that cancer ls not painful dlsease jn its early stages and many individuals do not seek advice for this reason after referring to the various forms of cancer the writer summarizes his article there should be less fear of cancer by saying in brie one may say that all lumps or sores appearing on the sur face of the body in the breast or in the mouth should be regarded with suspicion especially after the age of forty irregularities such as pends tent ul health lofts of appetite bleed lng etc should be taken seriously and should be thoroughly investigated by the patients physician throughout the country special centres for the proper treatment of an types of cancer have been estate ushed and there is no reason why anyone should not obtain immediately help regardless of his firmi pod uon the cooperatkm or the public in seektn carry medical advice is eer tarn to result in a still further fan provement and will eventually rob cancer of mosr of its terrors a fat woman elbowed her way through the crowd jabbing first ono person and then another pmalty she gave one man an unusually hard thump and asked i say does it make any- difference which bus x take to the not to me madam was the polite reply they said i wouldn t like playing in the minors mused old anthony michael push emup tony laxseri a few days ago theyre craxy i love it this old game of baseball is sub stantially the same no matter where you play it theyre all asking me how long i m going to keep up before i retire thats easy im going to play the game with everything i have until they kick me out and that won t be for a long time yet i hope tony likes his new post as manager of the toronto maple leals but s he flncb it all new and different its one thing to go out and play yourself and have somebody tell you what to do in a tough situation he says and quite another when you have to do the telling but the boys on my club are a great bunch of guys they re hustling au the time there s only one thing i wont stand for and thats being second guessed 1 never second guessed a manager as a player and now that i m a manager i don t want anybody second guessing me any half wit knows what should have been done when the play ls over the tough thing ls to be able to forscc what you shoulo do before the play comes off laxzeri took charge of the leafs on the 19th of june so he has had a chance to make up his mind about bis new surroundings getting used to the night routine of the international league is what he has found his toughest assignment wltn this night ball i don t know when to eat old puih em up says some of the boys saj eat at two 0 clock others say four the first couple or weeks i ate nothing but sandwiches night bascnall has been the salvation of the minors ail right- but it sure plaji hob with my stoax ach the lignto the waj i figure them show a good infielder or outfielder to advantage if he is fast they make him look faster on the same basis they make you overestimate a pitch ers abtlltj the ball looks bigger when you re up there at the plate but somehow it seems to be coming faster a lot of pitchers can get by under the lights who don t have a prayer tn the daylght that s whj i suppose the scouts have been moaning for yean that night baseball makes their job tough well us tougher for everybody gets damp out there at night the minute you sit down ou t f fen in every jo nt the majors will have to come too it soon though the re part there already they 11 have to go the whole hot sooner or la er because tham where the dough i tom paddon jersey city catcher declares that joung phil marehildon the penetang boy who jumped from amateur ranks right into double a baseball with the toronto leafs this vear is far and away the best pitching prospect in the international league tom says is this waj tf that kid eer ets command and learns to pull he string theyl never beat him 1 which is a ballplayers phraseologj ror i the opinion that if he gets contro and acquires a change of pace he is a sure shot for the major leagues this time last year marehildon was p tchlng for creighton mines amateur league in northern ontario he attended the toronto leafs base ball school in barrle where dan howley got a peek at him howley was so impressed by his natural stuff blinding speed and a curve that breaks like a jug handle that he jtgned him without delay to a toronto contrac some five hours later st louis cardinal scout arrived town for the same purpose which should give you an idea of how wide spread that cardinal rhain store sys tem is phil reported at the leafs training camp in march and right away things began to happen in an exhibition game with detroit he had the great hank oreenberg and rudy yor ducking away from his curve ball they both went on record as saying they had never seen a shar per breaking curve t tam came north and phu started his f tost league game before a crowd of 26000 people in jersey city he gave up one run and lost the ban game because the leafs couldnt even get a run h sta again on opening day in toronto a signal honor for a fresh man he oat tads one too but so impressed ed barrow president of the great new york yankees who happened to be to the stand that bar row started talking option before the end of the month hewas to there hi an exhibition game against the greatest collection or power hitters tn baseball tbose same new york yan feees th kid was ne and yiel ded several runs in the very first in tun after that be settled away and had the vaunted yanks popping ly to the mflelder al u happened within a year phu told a friend of bis that be felt as if he were on a lack or control is what has kept young phil marehildon the toronto leafs sensational rookie pitcher from being a greater sensation than he- is as an amateur he had always ptbohed from the flat and working from a mound bothered him old timers told him the secret of control was in per fect balance ailadvlsed him to watch his feet and let thebjul go the minute his front foot hit the ground he did nt have much success following this advice but in recent weeks his con trol has improved magically and he gives a very simple explanation for it before he says i was so wrapped up in watching my front root tbat i took my eye off the plate now i just draw a bead on that old dish and let the bau go
