GALLANT-BELK COMPANY “A little child shall lead them” is still true, according to Young Woman’s Christian Association leaders in Wusu, Hunan Prov ince, China. . . . Mei-mei’s batty brother Tung-sheng was born in a cave near Wusu during an air raid. Mei-mei burned incense and prayed that the boy might not be stricken , during the on-coming cholera season. But, unknown to her family, she carried Tung- sheng to the Y. W. C. A. clinic and both were inoculated. ‘‘Put in the magic!” she had begged. Cholera swept Wusu and carried off five members of this large refugee family—but not Mei-mei or her baby brother. Then she told everyone about the magic, and hundreds conquered their doubts and fears and were inoculated. The Y. W. C. A. health and child welfare program at Wusu has grown largely from Mei-mei’s faith. “Church women can be most helpful in interpreting churcn and community resources to new comers in a city—in extending personal fellowship to them and helping them to make contacts with congenial persons and groups,” says Miss Eleanor Neff, after completing a ten-month study of existing needs among employed women in the Chicago area. Under Miss Neff’s leader ship, and the sponsorship of the Wesleyan Service Guild — Meth odism’s organization for employed women—Guilds in and about Chi cago, the Federation; of Churches, numerous civic, industrial arid labor organizations are urging women in local churches to serve the needs of these women. Wel coming new women into church services and societies, planning so cials for them, and calling upon them are some of the desired per sonal contacts.

I By ELLIOTT PINE Night baseball under floodlights isn’t so new, it appears. It was first tried in 1883 at Fort Wayne. Inch The next attempt was at Cincinnati in 1909. Ten years later the White Sox tried it at Comiskey Park, Chi cago. These trials were put down as failures; the lights just weren’t bright enough. The ides*, was re vived somewhat by accident in 1923. Electrical engineers setting up floodlights at the General Elec tric company playground in Lynn. Mass., were testing the illumina tion one night. -They noticed some boys playing ball under the lights. This set the engineers to experi menting, and they developed a bat tery of 72 floodlights that was en tirely satisfactory. The first full- length baseball game was played on the Lynn field. The first profes sional ball game under lights was played in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1930. Five years later more than 100 bait fields were equipped with lighting, including the first major leagu** park. Today some 250 major and minor league ball parks are illumi nated. Attendance in the major clubs has jumped about six times tbe previous average for daylight ■ games. In the minors it’s four or five times as high. Football, tennis, hockey, soccer and bas ketball are also played at night now. Harness and dog racing tracks are thinking seriously of lighting up as soon as possible. It is entirely likely that eventu ally most sport events will be conducted at night when the greatest number of spectators have leisure to enjoy them. Leaders of the American Athletic Union are reported to be working on the next Olympic meet. . . . They want to hold it in London next year. Man O’War was the first race horse to earn more than $200,000 in purses. . . . Devil Diver is the last, unless some whiz turns up this year, as seems unlikely. The first intercollegiate game of football was played between Princeton i.nd Rut gers in 1869. . . . Each side put 25 men on the field. ... It resem bled a soccer game, or perhaps a smaF riot. Frank Hayes, Cleveland Indians catcher, set a new record June 20 by catching his 218th consecutive big league game. When he worked his 217th on July 28, he tied the previous endurance mark set by- Ray Mueller of Cincinnati last year. Pancho Segura, Ecuadorian tennis star and student at the U. of Miami, has not lost a set in the three years in which he has dom inated college tennis. The U. S. army’s golf team is competing witn the British army for the military- championship of Europe. The tour nament will be run off in Brussels. Belgium, this summer.
