The 2131st Game Starts (Philadelphia Record) Now we know what mysterwus hand it has been that has held Lou Gehrig back on the ballfield during the last two years. It was something which the Mayo experts describe as a chronis form of infantile paraly- VICTORY FOR PAA AND U. S. sis. The disease settled in the spine and “involved ST the motor pathway.” We think instantly of those several times when fans have booed Gehrig for his strange slowness on the field. Heads upturned, mouths open, neck cords distended, they were booing one of mankind’s most hidden, most dreadful enemies. But they did not know it. At the bars and behind first base they will now say how sad, how paradoxical, that this wasting disease should have selected for its victim the Iron Man, the ball player who has played more consecutive games than any other a hell of a note, they will say. If it was some little punk, all right, they will say. But Lou! Maybe they had better stop their chatter. We have 2 notion the story doesn’t end here; that this is only the first installment. Behind every genuine paradox lies a half-perceived truth. If it is Lou Gehrig, hero of the young people of America, who is a victim of mething similar to poliorihie child-killer, the par- ticular enemy of the young people of America; and if Lou, like an Iron Man, wins for them again, as he won for them so often. . . .

Among those which actively tried to nose out the American enterprise were France, England, and Germany, all of which reached the stage of ex- perimental crossings but were not so well prepared as Pan-American Airways to begin scheduled service.
