But Mildred learned nothing of the
ball player that had been sold for
nifty dollars on the way out to the
ball grounds. An animated discus
sion over the subject OF millinery en-
gagged the attention OF the three
young women in the automobile,
thereby rrecluding the possibility Of
baseball wedging itself in. Jack Old
ring was disguised
Why don't you girls stop talking
about the lids you nave ordered and
talk about something we can all talk
about We're going out to see a ball
game and not to see a lot of women's
hats, he exclaimed
His sister gave him a scornful look
which squelched him completely and
Immediately resumed the converse q

guards and II seemed as II every
automobile in Atlanta was on its way
10 the ball park There was a lam
at the entrance and the automobiles
had 70 crawl ~ the pace of Phila-
delphia snail before they could dis
charge their passengers. Long lines
OF humanity stretched from the ticket
sellers windows Street fakrs with
souvenirs Of all sorts and descriptions
moved here, there and everywhere In
the crowds, seeking whom they might
financially devour Newsboys shrillv
