v Dralna can flare like fire -works,
and at least one drama of this kind will
occur when the National Hockey
Leagues' All Stars play Detroit Red
Wings at Detroit the night of October 2,
For, a coach brand-new to the maj-
ors, who never before handled a hockey
assignment beyond the junior ranks, will be at the helm of
the great Stanley Cup champion Detroit team. And a coach
in only his second season will be opposing hint,
Jimmy Skinner, newly -appointed coach of the Red Wings,
replacing astute little Tommy Ivan, who has moved on to
Chicago, has this important chore for his first job in major
hockey, Skinner's appointment is in line with an established
sports policy of having the coach el record at the time of
the game direct his team.
The All Star contest will mark Skinner's debut at the
helm of the Detroit club on Olympia ice in which he will
seek to become the second coach in history to lead a Stanley
Cup champion to victory over the All Stars.
This season's annual battle will be notable for the fact
that facing each other, from opposite ends of the rink, will
be two of the greatest net -minders in hockey history. They
are Terry Sawolntk of Recl Wings, and Harry Lumley, of
Toronto Leafs, who fought it out for Vezina trophy honors
to the very last Glitch, in the N.H.L. race last spring.
They finished one goal apart, Lumley scored on 128
times in 69 games, Sawehuk 129 times in 67 games. Lumley
is a former Detroit netminder, who reached Toronto via
Chicago Black Hawks, to whom he went in a trade that,
curiously enough, involved Boston Bruin's fine veteran
paler, Sugar Jim Henry.
Lumley, pink-cheeked athlete from Owen Sound, Ont„
signalized his appearance with Toronto in the '52-'53 race
by registering 10 shut -outs, and increased that number to
13 last season,
It is four years since he played for Detroit, his first major
league team, but it is proverbial in hockey, and possibly
other sports, too, that the expatriates are always at their
best, opposing former teams.

Casey Stengel,. with no Pen-
dant or World's Series worries
-- and, gosh, how he wishes he
had some — has now turned that
massive brain of his to the prob-
lem of getting better umpiring.
Here's what Mighty Casey had
to say, in part,
*
"In the American League, the
second base umpire stands on
the outfield side of the bag, but
loo often his view of the play is
blocked by the man covering
the bag or by the base runner
or both," declared the manager
of the Yankees, "An umpire on
the inside of the bag could fol-
low the play much easier.
* * s
"In the National League, the
umpire stands on the inside,"
Stengel continued. "He has to
be careful not to get hit with
the ball but you get used to it.
In our league we've had cases
where the umpire didn't see the
eOvering fielder drop the ball."
Umpire Stevens failed to see
Gerry Coleman of the Yankees
drop a throw in a recent series
with the Red Sox at Fenway
Park. The play was clearly seen
by all—fans included— on the
third base side of the field, but
Stevens' view was blocked.
* * e
"In the World Series last fall
Billy Martin, not used to hav-
ing the umpire on the inside of
"the bag, asked Larry Goetz to
move," Stengel said. "Goetz re-
fused, claiming that he belonged
there. It might be a good idea,
during a World Series, to put
the second base umpire inside
the bag in National League parks
land outside in American." Casey
paused a moment, then added:
"Of course, the best idea would
be to have them all on the in -
nide." * * t
The attitude of certain um-
pires is hard to understand. They
GUESS WHAT?—its color Is
red, it has a horn on its head
and resembles Satan. Actually
it's a tomato grown by Tenny-
aun Frock,
are told by their league presi-
dents that the important thing
is to make the right call. Yet,
when a questionable play comes
up, they rarely ask a fellow arbi-
ter for help,
There was a play Stevens call-
ed at Fenway Park. Coleman
dropped the ball and the Red
Sox base runner, according to
the rules, was safe. But Stevens
called him out because he did
not see the ball dropped, Had
Stevens. appealed to the umpire
at third base, who had the play
in front of him, the correct de-
cision would have been made.
Does an tunpire have leis dig-
nity shattered more by calling
a play wrong or by having the
good sense to ask another arbi-
ter for help?
And this reminds one of a pet
gripe of many baseball reporters.
In the interest of sound re-
porting, el keeping the fans up
to date on the game and of
competent officiating, it would
be very helpful if the plate um-
pire wouId somehow relay
changes in batting orders to the
press box — particularly to the
official scorer -- as soon as pos-
sible. * "
When two players are inserted
in a late inning and could bat
in either of two places, very
often the press box must wait
until one of them actually walks
to the plate before finding 'out
the correct order. If changes are
made in the eighth or ninth in-
nings and there is no time for
another trip to the plate, the
writers must wait until they
have visited the clubhouse be-
fore getting their box scores
finished. e " *
Not only should the official
scorer be favoured with this in-
formation at the time it occurs,
bilt the announcement should be
made over the public address
system so that fans present, as
well as those listening over the
radio or watching on television,
may correct their score cards.
* 1 e
• As a matter of fact, the plate
umpire is supposed to take care
of this little matter and only
through negligence ignores it.
* * *
This keeping the paying cus-
tomer's informed, by the way, is
not always done. Things often
happen in games which are
clearly explained to the radio
and television audiences, but no
effort --- well, almost no effort
--is made t0 keep the people in
the stands up to date. They pay
their money and they should get
the facts immediately, not In to-
morrow morning's newspaper.
LOW INDIAN — Cleveland centerfielder Larry Doby hugs the
dust and dirt as he slides safely into 3rd., on o single by Al
Rosen in the 4th inning of the first game of Yanks -Indians
doubleheader at Cleveland. Andy Carey attempts the put-
out and Umpire John Flanorty calls the play. An estimated
reecord-breaking crowd of 80 thousand watched Indians win 4-1.
Don't Vilorry Abt,ai it Your Stomach;
Some FaHacies eg rd avg Foods
Did you ever turn down ice
cream because you'd just eaten
pickled onions? Or refuse to
drink milk with fish? Most
people are convinced that food
combinations like these "just
don't mix" in the stomach and
thus cause indigestion.
"Nonsense," says Dr. Abel
Lajtha, biochemist of Columbia
University's College of Physi-
cians and Surgeons. "This is
just another of the popular
food beliefs that spoil one of
the most profound and depend-
able pleasures of life — eating.
As long as foods are good for
you when eaten singly, they
can be eaten in any combination
whatever. It's only in your
mind and not in your stomach
that they don't mix."
Since our minds have so
much influence on our stomachs
Dr. Lajtha set out recently to
put both at ease by collecting
and correcting food fallacies
that are still widely believed
even 'among intelligent anti
well-informed people,
"The fewer such beliefs you
swallow," says Dr. Lajtha, "the
better your meals will taste and
the more good they'll do you."
How many of your cherished be-
liefs are here?
BELIEF. Oysters art a source
of quick energy.
FACT: It would take live
raw oysters to equal the calorie
value of one egg, and almost
ninety oysters to serve as sub-
stitute for a pound of steak. Any
stimulating effect that they have
is physchological.
BELIEF. Toasting makes
bread less fattening.
FACT. Not at all. Bread con-
sists mainly of starches whicb
are turned into sugars in the
process of digestion. Toasting
merely changes the starches on
the surface of the slice to dex-
trins, which are a little closer
to sugar and hence slightly
sweeter and a little easier to
digest. But unless you burn it
to a crisp and destroy most of
its food value, toast is just as
fattening as bread, ,.
BELHEF. Raw meat or very
under -done meat Is more nour-
ishing than thoroughly cooked
meat.
FACT. No. The proteins in
meat are not damaged by heat,
and cooking makes the meat
easier to digest.
BELIEF. People who sprinkle
a lot of salt on their food will
eventually suffer hardening of
the arteries.
FACT. Salt has 110 effect on
the arteries, but it does increase
the burden of the kidneys,
which have to excrete the ex-
cess salt. Thus salt intake is
limited in kidney diseases.
BELIEF You should never
peel cucumbers because the skin
makes them easier to digest.
FACT. The peel has no ef-
fect on the digestion of cucum-
bers, which are palatable but of
low food value.
BELIEF. Dot bread is un-
healthy and hard to digest.
FACT. Hot bread, fresh from
the oven is just as nutritious
and digestible as ordinary bread.
Since it is more moist and less
flaky than older bread, people
tend to swallow it quickly with
little chewing. But if chewed
as much as ordinary bread, it is
no harder to digest.
BELIEF. Eating bet w e e n
meals or just b e f ore a meal
spoils appetite and impairs di-
gestion.
FACT. That depends on what
you eat. Fats and sweets dull
the appetite and slow digestion,
while meat and cheese whet the
appetite, Furthermore, numer-
ous tests on schoolchildren and
office and factory employees
show that light, between meal
snacks increase efficiency and
lessen fatigue and absenteeism.
BELIEF, Certain foods —
wheat germ for instance — in-
crease fertility.
FACT. Certain animals re-
quire vitamin E (found most
abundantly in wheat germ) to
reproduce, But as far as we
know, no food has a specific ef-
fect on human fertility.
BELIEF. Fish is a brain food,
FACT. Unfortunately nobody
has ever discovered a food that
specifically aids brain activity.
In fact, there's no evidence that
extra brainwork requires extra
food,
BELIEF. We'd all be better
off if we ate food raw instead
of cooking it.
FACT, Cooking widens en-
ormously the range of food fit
for human consumption, kills
germs and parasites, and im-
proves the flavor and digesti-
bility of food. Giving up cook-
ed foods and "going back to
Nature" would drastically short-
en the human life span and
impair our health and vigor as
a species.
BELIEF. Eating a heavy meal
just before bedtime gives you
bad dreams.
FACT. Digestion requires
physical effort, and the more
you eat before going to bed,
the harder ydur body must work
to digest it. Naturally this in-
terferes with sleep, and while
you are restless you are likely
to have dreams. Whether the
dreams are pleasant or unpleas-
ant depends on a variety of fac-
tors—events in your past life,

PACT. Not at. all. You can

BELIEF. Some day science
veil replace ordinary foods with
pills that will supply us with
everything our bodies need.
FACT. A little thought shows
that the idea of making such
food pills is ,just as absurd as
the idea of making water pills.
The basic chemicals necess-
ary to sustain life are just about
as bulky as the natural foods in
which they occur. Olive oil,
butter, and lard are very nearly
pure fats. Ordinary sugar pro-
vides ,.the highest possible con-
centration of carbohydrates.
Except for its water content,
lean meat is often almost pure
protein.
The only way foods can be
concentrated is to remove the
water—and it must be restored
to snake them digestible. Steals
and mashed potatoes are here to
stay!
BELIEF. The dark meat of
chicken or turkey is more nour-
ishing than the white meat.
FACT. Dark meat takes a
little longer to digest because it
contains more flit and more con-
nective tissue. Because of iia
slightly higher fat content, the
dark meat yields a few more
Calories --- but not enought to
