AN afternoon gown which is elabo-
"a rate enough for formal occasions
and quiet enough for the informal will
appeal to most women. Here is one
which is novel and beautiful in com
position and in which the wearer
might feel at ease at an afternoon
tea or an evening reception. 1t is
conservative as to style, graceful in
outline, and of a type which will out
live single season.
Gray satin forms the foundation OF
the skirt, which is bordered at the
bottom with two scalloped founces,
each about quarter of yard in
width when finished, and bound with
a narrow piping of the silk The
skirt escapes the ground by about
three inches, measured from the mid
die of the edge Of the scallops, and
is comfortably wide, approaching two
yards. This gives plenty of room even
considering demands of dancing.
At the head of the second hounce
scant festoons are arranged in the ma
terial. They are caught up with small
bows of the fabric and are simply
two shallow folds tackled to position.
Extra width is allowed in the up
per aounce to allow for this draping.

as the silk, reaches to within twelve
inches of the bottom of the skirt, or
may be made longer. 1t is laid in
side plaits at the waist line and al
lowed to flare below the hips. A mar

"The greatest baseball play I ever

''Ty Cobb, his first time up, hit a
nasty grounder toward the first base

Stuffy Mclnnes had some trouble
reaching for it and keeping hold of the
ball when he got it. But he managed
to scramble over and touch first just
as Ty raced over the bag. Connie
Mack's loyal rooters declared the
Georgia Peach out by mile. but the
umpire had leas of his own and Tyrus
rested safely on the initial sack.
''The unexpected usually happens
when this star swatsman Is running
bases, and on this occasion he did
not dsappont his admirers. After
the pitcher had thrown the ball Ty,
having fairly good lead, decided to
amble along down to second, figuring,
no doubt that Lapp 1.-THE Athletic

otter a catcher Of Lapp's ability has

order. He is usually there with the
perfect peg. but the sight Of Cobb jog

he heaved the ball into center field.
Cobb saw Barry crouched in front OF
the base waiting as if to receive the
ball. So gathering speed, he made one
of his bent leg slides and landed be,

ball had gone to center field, he started
for third base at top speed. Some one

While admiring his nervy exhibition
the fans really wanted the dangerous
fellow disposed of, and he had reached
third by the closest kind of mar

path toward home each time the pitch

now gathered two strikes, and witt

plate at full speed, sliding with grear
force against Lapp, who was waiting
for him with the ball. But the throw
