Pacific Coast Baseball Loop
Seeks Major League Status
Bf Jack Cuddy
United Press Correspondent
New York, Nov.
The recent reiteration of de
mands by the Pacific Coast
league for Major league status
in the baseball world Indicate
that next week's Minor league
meeting at Buffalo, N. Y-, may
produce aome real loud holler
ing by the double "A" circuits.
The Pacific Coast moguls long
have felt that their loop was
entitled to more than Minor
laegue rating and have re-opened
their campaign for a third
Major league with considerable
vigor.
Virtually certain that the
Majors will invade the west at
the conclusion of the war, Clar
ence Rowland, president of the
Pacific Coast league, will pre
sent an amendment to the Minor
league meeting requesting stiff
monetary reimbursement when
such moves are made. Rowland
feels that the progress made in
air transportation will permit
two and possibly three Major
on n in league franchises on the coast.
tect his circuit.
Inasmuch as it is considered
extremely doubtful that the Ma
jors would consider the addition
of another league of their status,
Rowland's proposal stipulates
that no city in which a club of
the National Association gov.
erning body of the Minors la
located, shall be Included in the
circuit of a Major league unless
the Minor League Association
agrees.. It also says that in the
event such agreement is given.
the Major league club shall pay
to the member league a sum
which shall be divided among
the clubs of said league, other
than the club whose territory
has been acquired, a sufficient
sum to compensate for losses
sustained by the realignment of
the league. It also must pay the
Minor league club with which
it deals, full compensation.

PHYSIOLOGY PROF
Portland. Ore., Nov. 29 (U.R)
Ninety-nine per cent of alco
holics fit into seven or eight
classifications, some of them
good bets" for rehabilitation,
others doubtful, says Dr. Seldon
D. Bacon of Yale University's
laboratory of applied physiol
ogy. .
. Under present knowledge of
tha treatment of chronic inebri
ates, the so-called "primary
compulsive" drinker's chances
of cure are hone too favorable,
Dr. Bacon told delegates to the
Pacific coast conference on al
coholic studies.
The primary compulsive
drinker, said Dr. Bacon, com
prises a third of all excessive
alcoholics. He usually is
healthy, may have a BUDerlor
mind, may detest liquor and
swear to quit it. but he can't
quit. He may be an idealist, but
he feels uncertain and inferior
and drinking provides an es
cape as his real problems In
crease as they do in a vicious
circle.
An even larser
slve to treatment, is the second
ary compulsory drinker. He
began tippling because it was
fun," and led to anoint mH
business contacts. But after sev
eral yeara, it got out of control.
He has called on alcohol to aid
him when the slightest problem
comes up. until he hue lr.t hi.
Job, his friends and even his
family. . ...
Another smaller but sizable
group is made up of "psychotic"
drinkers. A psychotic drinker
has an advanced mental disease
and drinks heavily as an escane
from his fears. His drinking is.
in fact, "a minor accompani
ment to a major sickness." Cor
ollary of this group is made up,
of feeble-minded drinkers, for
whom only institutionalizing
can be prescribed.
The "situational" drinkers are
comparatively a small group of
men who drink to escape from a
great loss, pain or incurable disease.
Caesarean Takes
Child Carried By
Mother 18 Years
Palmdale, Calif., Nov. 29 (U.R)
One of the rarest cases In medi
cal history was revealed today
when a physician reported the
caesarean delivery of a stillborn
baby carried by the mother for
18 years.
The woman was Mrs. Martin
Buck, 56-year-old grandmother,
whose home is Bonnerdale, ArK.
The Caesarean section was
performed recently by Dr. H. H.
Snook, Palmdale, who said the
Infant was In a mummified state
and showed an eight months'
development.
Mrs. Buck, who. Is visiting
relatives here, was recovering
"satisfactorily," Dr. Snook said.
"I had already had four chil
dren when this one was on the
way 18 years ago," Mrs. Buck
said. "When the time came for
the arrival of the baby, I had a
month of excruciating pain. Yet
when no baby appeared, I de
cided I must have been suffering
from a tumor."
Her condition was discovered
when Dr. Snook took X-rays af
ter she had gone to him for
treatment of a cold.
