SH0RTST0P SHOULD BE BETTER
THAN EVER NEXT SEASON

A glance at the record of Bobby
vaughn, who is scheduled to hold down
the shortstop position for the Newark
club his year, gives loyal Tiger fans
much cause for citation. Vaughn, al
ways handicapped by his weakness as
a stick-wielder, wound up the season
with a hitting average of 20.
More interesting still is the discovery
that Vaughn never batted lower than
20 all season, and for the first two
months he hit we'll above the 800
mark.
As a fielder Bobby's finished style and
wonderful knack of covering ground at
tracted attention of big league scouts
while he was still a campus phenom
at Princeton.
He had a bushel. more or less, of big
league offers, but accepted the ad-
vances of the New York American
League Club and was given a chance
to make good as a second Stacker with
the Yanks. His fielding was all that
could be desired, but his hitting was
far below par.
Improved.
His Improvement last season shows
that he can be taught to hit; indeed.
that he has been taught, and has

Kelley, himself a son of swat. Newark

their tea making assert that tea to be
good, should be made In an earthen
pot, never in metal one.
Tea is never good when long stand
ing, but in some cases 1t cannot be
helped 1t should be poured off the
leaves into another heated pot and
covered with "cosey."
II cream is taken less expensive
grade of tea may be used than when
lemon is preferred.
An old-fashioned idea is to drop a
few shavings of dried orange peel into
the pot in which the tea is made.
Some like this, while others believe
that it spoils the flavor of the bever-
