and the St. Louis Cardinal man

following Cooper's suspension
by Manager Billy Southworth.
Southworth suspended Cooper
yesterday after the big right
hander left the Cardinals with
out notice, presumably to go to
St. Louis for another salary con
ference with Club President Sam
Breadon.
Breadon, however, was In
Rochester, N. Y., transacting
business with the team's farm
club there. Advised of Cooper's
suspension, he said, "the matter
is entirely in Southworth's
hands."
The big fellow told some of his
team mates that he was worried
over sickness at home. He had
been South north's selection to
pitch the opener of yesterday's
double header with the Braves
in which the Cards lost both
games.

American College
Health Programs
Said Inadequate
New York, (U.R) Health and
physical education programs in
many American Junior colleges
are not in conformity "with se
lected standards of desirable
practice,"' Dr. Henry J. de Giro
lamo, a member of the hygiene
department of the College of the
City of New York, reports after
investigating conditions in 68
such institutions throughout the
country.
Dr. de Girolamo found that
junior colleges are deficient in
one or more aspects of health
supervision of students, health
service, health instruction and
physical education. A fourth of
the colleges inspected did not
require health examination for
matriculating students; in a quar
ter of them the department of
physical education did not as
sume responsibility for health
examination of athletes, and in
10 per cent no health examina
tion was required of athletes
Hospital care for all students
was not provided In 5 per cent,

New York, May 17. (U.R)
The second month of , major
league play begins today after
a surprising start marked by (1)
failure of the St. Louis teams to
bid for a repeat one-city world
series as expected and (2) the
threat of New York or Chicago
teams to do it if the Missourians
can't.
J. Monroe Johnson, the office
of defense transportation boss,
says the world series will be
"out of the question" unless both
competing teams are from the
same city.
The Cards hit rock-bottom yes
terday, losing two to the Braves
at Boston, 5 to 4, in 14 innings
and 4 to 1.
The Brooklyn Dodgers, play
ing as if they were in the world
series already, won their 11th
straight game' yesterday for the
longest consecutive streak under
the regime of Manager Leo Dur
ocher. They beat the visiting
Pittsburgh Pirates for the third
straight time, 3 to 1.
The New York Giants' version
of murderers' row, Manager Mel
Ott, Phil Weintraub and Ernie
Lombard! hit sixth innings hom
ers to give Pitcher Bill Voiselle
support for his seventh victory
without a defeat, a 6 to 0 shutout
over the visiting Chicago Cubs
in a night game.
Dick Barrett provided the
Phils with good pitching in a
6 to 2 seven-hit victory over Cin
cinnati at Philadelphia.
For the third straight day, all
American league games were
rained out.

Kansas Corn Husks
Are Used. To Make
Several Articles
Lawrence, Kan. (U.R) Hats,
with flowers, fruits and vege
tables and now hats made from
Kansas corn husksl
Students at the University of
Kansas and in Lawrence are
using Kansas wheat straw, cat
tails, slough grass and corn
husks for making handbags,
belts, coasters, hot-dish pads,
rugs, pottery, whisk brooms
and women's hats.
Maud Ellsworth, director of
elementary school art in Law
rence, and assistant professor of
art education at Kansas uni
versity, said 'recently that corn
husks are suited to many uses.
She told of an acquaintance
of hers who dyed some husks
navy blue and made a hat for
her spring ensemble.
One simple practice in the use
of corn husks, Miss Ellsworth
said, is to dampen the husks,
shred them to the desired width,
and make flat three-strand
braids. These are sewed together
with strong thread. The husks
dye well, she said, but they aften
need no dye because husks have
a natural color variation from
pale cream to brown.
