Turkey Has Shrunk It is too little known that Tur- = key, besides her -natural endow- ments of climate, which ranges from Mediterranean to Alpin," and her rich variety. of physical attrac- : tions also comprises the larg- est part of the ancient territory with = which our classical memories are associated. . What 1s now 'Turkey was Greece cin the times of Homer. Here was Troy. in the plains of Ilium. Here are thie ruins of Ephesus and Perga --mum--aind of many other cities of __classical Greek. Here Strabo was = born, and Diogenes. Here passed * Xenophon with his Ten Thousand, and later Alexander on his, conquest of western Asia. Here it was that Alexander cut the Gordian knot. Here, deep ini Anatolia, near Zile, Caesar overcaine Pharnaces--the victory of which he said: "1 came, I saw, | conquered." In Tarsus, where. excavations are now expos- ing the remains of cultures that were' old wn the early Egyptian dynasties, St: Paul was born, and, from here he set out on the"ex- a i peditions, -which-produced his Ep- | "77 istles to the Galatians and the Ephe- sians, forefathers of the present "Turks. oY Istanbul jtscli--Constantinople in olden days--with its monuments of imp@rial Roman power and of later Ryzzantine splendour, could alone © justify the: claim that Turkey possesses supreme historical interest and atchitectural beauty. --From "Turkey, An Economic Appraisal," hy Max Weston Thornbury, Gra. liam Spry and George "Soule, i i ¥ Na "more for the double-chute type "| ¥ ------ ea bo We lhave never personadly © been able to get very much kick ouf of any sort of sport taken via the air- waves. In fact we would sooner watch a bunch. of juveniles bang- ling each other around on the vil+ lage dam or playing corner lot football than listen to a Stanley Cup final or watch--over. TV--any 'Bowl" Lame that ever was. tested, 2 i - + "» . Still, that is just "a matter of taste, and we 'knnow that there are untold: thousands who prefer their sport with a dash of ether added. It you happen to be one of these you may be interested in some re- marks by the noted baseball writer . Dan Daniel, as published in the Baseball-man's Bible, - otherwise known as The Sporting News, Mr. Daniel is writing about a certain that tries not only to keep with the play but a yard or so - ahead of it, and who is prone to tell his listeners-that a certain play Is a hit--or an error--without wait- mg for word from the official scorer. He also has a word or two to say about the sort of plaver who tries to make the official scorer look bad * 4 % What with one thing or another --Mr. Daniel sayvs--the official scorers of the major leagues have stuck their noggins out of the press boxes into some small prominence of late. A certain club has sent a-- stafl not 'to second-guess the scor- er. The practice of second guessing the guy who calls the hits and er- rors has gained considerable vogue in the big time and the writers, from whose ranks the scorers are recruited, resent this tendency very strongly, . : pr. | Ni - ~The scorers are under some pres- sure from the players, too. Only the other day Jim McCulley of the New York Daily News, scoring in Brooklyn, gave an infielder an er- ror on a ball hit by Pee Wee Reese of the Dodgers. This ended a Reese batting streak at 22 games. Pee Wee had - been shooting. for the Brooklyn record of 29 consecutive games, set by Zach Wheat in 1916, When the error" sign went up on the scoreboard, Brooklyn players dashed out --of their dugout and notified McCulley of their displeas- ure. The scorer had adequate sup- * port for his decision in the press box. : * * + ficult in the matter of reaction to the scoring. A few will make ve- Jhement protest. Others will just glare at the scorer when he comes: --ifito the clubhouse or dugout. In pleasant contrast with the _ squawk and glower boys was Paul Waner, who wanted every hit he + made, and nothing more. When Paul, who got 3.152 hits in his major career, poked No. 3.000 at Forbes Field, he sent word to the scorer that he- did not agree with his decision. Paul iifsisted that thie play should-have been scored as an error. "1 want you to take that hit away because I m- tend No. 3.000 to be the real thing." he insisted. The next time Big Poison came up, he whacked the stufling out of -a ball and announced, "This is No. 3,000." However, actually it was 3.001, because the scorer had stood by lis original 3.000 decision. - 3 * Doubtless the most unpleasant | experience of a New York scorer, or perhaps any other scorer, was suffered by John Kieran, back mn the days when he was writing base- ball for the American. In 1922, George Sisler won the American League batting champion-, to Ty Cobb with 401, his third .400 "Average, as he had batted 420 in con- i type of sports broadeaster--the type} .} up «of ----directve to its. radio and. television... Some few players are rather dif* ship with 402. Second place went _ Sc-ram--Caution seems. to be the introductory keynote as three- year-old Necia Prather and this Australian Merino ram each look as if the other's company was--to put it bluntly--unwelcome: The ram is part of a recent shipment to the University of Califor- | nia's College of Agriculture after an embargo against the export 'of the breed from Australia had been lifted. . SECC AE 1911 and 410 the following season. One day at the Polo Grounds, where the Yankees still were play- ing, Cobb rapped a sharp grounder --to~Deacon Scott, the home' short- -|- stop. Fred Lieb, the AP man, call- ita hit. It was raining, and Kieran had gone into the stands to get out o the wet. John scored it as an error. When came out at the end of the season, Cobb -was hitting 401. On the 4399. by Ben Jolson, president of the American League, decided to ac- cept the Lich version as against the Kieran scoring. So you see the official scorer had his troubles as far back as 1922. " - * * A Dan "Daniel goes on to tell of great hitting streak by one of base- ball's greatest idols. * * * Scorjng during Joe -DiMaggio's record SO-game batting streak in 1941, was one of the most nerve- racking chores in the history of hig league scoring. and certainly the most rugged job along those lines done by the writer. I was the scorer. mn Yankee divm during most of the streak, and the tensions were terrific. DiMaggio went along to the 24- game mark without exciting too much attention, Then it struck the press. box that joe was nearing the 30-game stage. and - that his streak had become news. On June 8. he got two hits, off George Cas- ter and Jack Kramer of the Browns, to make it 24 consecutive games. * + * Sta- Things got towd on July 1. Ile . A .

Still Public Enemy No. 1." which has just been issued by T. E.~Transeau; director of that bureau, After citing many studies by authoritative sources on the role "that excessive speed has. played in the mounting toll of higli- way accidents, Mr. Transcau breaks down the death rates in the various states with relation ato the fixed maximum rate of speed in those states. This breakdown certainly bears very convincing evidence that fixed maximum speeds have a de- finite relationship to fatalities on "the highway. It shows that tlic na- tional average death rate per 100, 000,000 miles of travel in 1950 was 7.5. In the cleven states which de- fine .maximum speed on the road as "careful and prudent," or "reas- onable and proper," the rate ex- ceeded the by national: average from 5.1 to 11.5 per cent. - Where absolute maxunum speeds were fixed the results show an 1n- teresting curve: The fourteen states fixing top speed at 60 miles an hour had an average. death rate of 2.7 per cent above the national figure. Oddly enough, the six states in which 55 miles an hour is maximum show an average of 8 per cent ex- cess above the fatality rate for the nation. However, twelve states in - which 50 miles an hour is the fixed maximum show an average death rate 20 Per cent- below that of the nation; the three states in which 45 miles 1s the fixed maximum aver- age, 41.3 per cent below: and the lone state, Massachuetts, witha fix- ed top speed of 40 miles an hour, 49.3 per cent below the death rate of the nation. . Obviously there factors of high importance other than maxi- mum speeds which enter into the fatality picture. These include speed too fast for conditions, irrespective of any. maximums, One can drive too thst at 15 miles an hour if conditions of surface and traffic make this rate dangerous. How- ever, Director Transcan's figures indicate a fact which 1s obvious but often forgotten -- namely, that high speeds on the road in- evitably add to the severity of acci- dents when they do eccur aid to high fatality rates. Tet us all re- solve to watch tHat speedometer, drive with a light rather than a heavy foot, and do our individual part to keep the highway death toll down. - : i * -- From The New York Times. too tT) : reesei. bd haar aTEy (44 Y RN The proud father of triplets called x {LN up__the_local weekly to report the x8 Lai Ha event, fo ) The man at the other end, not Junior Fashions--Hat ot TTY quite heaving what he said, asked, sheared rabbit is shown above. bn toy Repost Dat!
