opening day thrill of them all.
The year was 1940. The Cleve
land Indians started the season
with a 1-0 victory over the Chi
cago White Sox.
And a young Iowa farm boy
named Bobby Feller pitched the
only opening day no-hitter in
big league history.
It was a cold, gray day in
forbidding Comiskey Park when
the burly, 21-year-old with the
blazing fast ball went to the hill.

Out of Jam
They .were, as a matter of
fact, jelling for his scalp in the
second inning when the White
Sox loaded the bases with two
out. But then he went to that
bullet-life fast ball, rearing back
and blowing it past Bob Ken
nedy three straight times to get
out of the jam.
In the fourth inning, his
Cleveland teammates got him his
run.
That was to be Cleveland's
only run, but it was enough.
Because from the fourth inn
ing through the eight, Feller re
tired 15 men in a row as he roll
ed up eight strikeouts.
Thus they came to the bottom
of the ninth and tension was
thick in the big green ball park.
Feller, working calmly and
without any visible emotion,
got the first two men easily. But
the next man up was pesky Luke.
Appling and the pressure mount
ed as he fouled four long
smashes into right field before
drawing a walk.
-Mack Saves Day
Taft Wright moved into the
batter's box next and, for a mo
ment, it appeared as if Feller's
n o-h i 1 1 e r was gone when
Wright slashed a hot shot which
looked, as if might go through
second. But Ray Mack lunged
desperately, knocked the ball
down and scrambled to pick it
up flipped to Hal Trosky for
the final putout.
Now 36, Feller will be on the
Cleveland bench as this season
gets under way. No longer is he
one of the club's "Big Four"
and his assignments will be of
the spot variety.
Silos Help To Halt
Erosion of Soil
Manhattan, Kan. (U.R) A
Kansas State College agronomist
says silos are one of the best de
vices to prevent soil-blowing in
the plains area.
Frank Bieberly, the expert, ex
plained: If farmers have good feed sup
plies, they are not forced to over
graze the vegetative cover that
protects their soil from blowing.
The Kansas agricultural exper
iment station reports that en
silage will keep indefinitely and
still be nutritious and palatable
to livestock.
The information is important
now because of the ravages of
drought in the nation's "bread
basket." Kansas and some nearby
states had the driest November
in recorded weather history
and this after two years of in
termittent drought.
Bieberly believes that soil
blowing will be greatly reduced
when all Midwest fanners learn
how well ensilage will keep and
start storing feed from the good
years to be used during slim crop
years.

Glance at Gals Expensive
At Mexico City Barbershop
Mexico City (U.R) Looking
at senoritas can be expensive,
especially if you are getting
clipped in Olegario Pacheco's
outdoor barber emporium.
Olegario's establishment con
sists of an old chair placed on a
soap box on the sidewalk by his
cousin's grocery store in the
outskirts of Mexico City.
If you are willing to sit fac
ing the wall, your haircut costs a
mere six cents. But if you want
to sit facing the street and ogle
the female passers-by, the price
goes up to 10 cents.
The reason, says Olegario, is
that it's harder to give a haircut
when the client faces the street.
The gals are a distraction.
Outdoor Shops Everywhere
Outdoor barbershops here are
in as solidly as beans and tor
tillas. You see them set up
under trees, along sidewalks and
even in the middle of back
streets on week ends.
But the days of the soup bowl
haircut are gone, says Olegario,
and he doesn't go in for such
tom-foolery as crew-cuts.
"A man's head could get cold
and it might very well affect his
thinking," reasoned Senor Pa
checo. Say that a man climbs in your
chair, wants a haircut styled to
his personality and the shape
of his head like they do in these
fancy barbershops downtown.
What does Pacheco do?
"I cut his damn hair the way
a man's hair ought to be cut,"
he , spat, "and I charge him a
man's price. If they want some
thing fancy, they can go to a
beauty parlor."
Olegario calls his place a
"sometimes" barbershop because
he is open for business only when
he needs money. On a good day,
he might take in as much. as
two bucks.
The main thing is,: he doesn't
have any spare time. His wife,
Clotilde, works the small garden
patch and Olegario supervises
this operation. The rest of the
time he spends sitting in the
sun beside his shack thinking.
He doesn't bother with politics
because he figures it's all chan
neled and out of the hands of
the average man. Current events
don't bother him because he
can't do anything about what's
happening. Besides, Olegario
isn't the curious type. There
are plenty of other things to
think about; girls, the good old
days and just plain nothing.
More than anything, Olegario
Pacheco says he likes to think
about nothing.
He never studied barbering.
It's a talent that comes naturally
and is mostly a question of com
mon sense.
Exciting Moments
But barbering can have its ex
citing moments. There was the
time the Mexican general came
around in a big rush for a hair
cut because he had to attend
some kind of a ceremony within
an hour. The general didn't look
like the type of man to be
trifled with.
Olegario helped him into the
chair on the soap box, tied the
sheet around his neck and start
ed to work. Halfway through,
two big dogs ploughed into them
in a running fight and upset the
chair and the general Olegario's
scissors slipped and snipped the
tip of the general's ear off as he
went over.

Women Have No Instinct on Feeding
Babies, British Scientist Discovers
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Writer
New York (U.R) It is the con
sidered opinions of medical sci
ence that women have no in
stinct which tells them how to
feed their babies.
Dr. Mavis Gunther studied 150
women, who were mothers for
the first" time, and also searched
out everything science has found
out about maternal instincts.
That instinct was not among
them. But if it is any consola
tion to women, she pointed out
that chimpanzees in captivity
don't know how to feed their ba
bies either. They have to be
taught.
Blames Modesty
"When a female chimpanzee
cannot rear her young without
having a human male to, teach
her, instinct in the mother may
indeed be said to have failed,"
remarked Dr. Gunther.
A likely explanation of nature
having short-changed women on
instincts is that "mimicry" may
take the place of instinct in infant-feeding
in human beings
as well as in monkeys. Monkeys
live in colonies. The females
have watched the feeding proc
ess many times before it becomes
their turn.
But with women, a real trou
ble has developed with advanc
ing civilization. "The small size
of present day families and the
conventions of modesty, com
bined with housing which allows
privacy, have ensured that most
women do not as children watch
a baby being suckled,'.' he said.
Must Be Taught
Since there is no instinct in
women and since they can't
mimic when they don't know
what it is they're to mimic, doc
tors have to face up to the fact
that first mothers have to be
taught.
Teaching mothers what in
stinct doesn't tell them is a mat
ter of much importance, she
thought, because "when a moth
er is very anxious to fed her
child, and he refuses and fights,
she is profoundly depressed. She
may be found weeping before
each feeding, and her delight in
her child may be completely
taken away by her misery."
Dr. Gunther made her studies
in a large obstetrical hospital in
London. She reported her results
in the world famous medical
journal, The Lancet.
