SOCIETY GIRL THIEVES
Editor The Times:

Editor The Times:
| have been asked to write Q
short letter for publication on the
society girl thieves" and will
ask you to kindly publish it fol
me.
| think, as the report goes,
thirty homes robbed these girls
should be accused and duly prose
cuted for grand larceny, for in
every sense of justice and tht
freedom of this day and age
these girls have committed an act
that is inexcusable and should
not be passed over SO lightly as II
has been by our Juvenile Off
GERS" Mr.. Jurisch and Miss Simp.
kins.
These girls are II years of age
and plainly know better than
committing larceny, no matter
how great or how small. | am
convinced that IL these girls had
been poor they would undoubt-
eddy have been prosecuted and
their names and crime would
have been put in large letters on
the front page and would at least
have taken up several columns in
some Tacoma newspapers.
These girls are well-to-do and
therefore are excused and bar
red from being given hearing
and being prosecuted. as would
other girls who are poor.
Your sincere friend,

SAN DIEGO, Cal. June IL. -
If there were nothing In the build
ings of this San Diego exposition,
1t would be worth trip across the
continent to see it.
The buildings and the growing
things are beyond words to de-
scribe and beyond the mind of the
average eastern person to picture.
The colored post cards are libel

reminiscent of Venice and st.

REAL MANAGER NEEDED
TO WIN, SAYS LUDERUS
Continued from Page Ono

Continued from Page Ono
reason Pat is invaluable on the line be-
cause he can forsee with almost mathe-
matical precision the defensive move
ments OF the opposing team and can plan
his attack accordingly.
/ have heard pitchers who have had
Moran for their catcher tell me that he
knew more about batters' weaknesses
than any other receiver in the league and
that he could devine almost to a GER
tainty when a man on first was going
down. then he would call for a pitch
out the runner would be nailed. Certainly
my experience with Moran has lead me
to believe that he knows the batters, even
now when he is not playing, better than
men who are in there every day behind
the bat. Our pitchers say that they have
learned more baseball under Moran this
season than they have in all the rest of
their past baseball experience combined
To this fact can be attributed much of
our success this year. Pat can tell the
pitcher whether to use low curve out
side, a high fast inside or whatever else
the batsman is most likely to convert into
an easy grounder or a weak fly. And he
will be there doing the same thing in the
series.
While our pitchers and Killefer and
Burns know very well what balls to pitch
to the batters in the National League
they are not so familiar with the Red
Sox hitters consequently all of them, in
cluding Alex, will be out in the box test
ing out the managers directions rather
than relying on their own judgment.
On the offense We rely even more on
the managers judgment than in the de-
fensive end of the game. There is rarely
a time that a hitter goes up without
being told what to do. For instance, with
a fast man like Paskert on first he is
likely to tell Cravath to play the hit-and-
run, and also he will figure whether the
second baseman or the shortstop is going
to take the throw, and will tell the batter
whether he shall try to hit into right
or left field.
One of the most striking features of
Moran's ability as a manager is shown
by the fact that his decision on a play
is never questioned. OF course, the main
reason for this is that he has shown us
that he knows better than any one else
what ought to be done. He has proven
this hundreds of times throughout the
present season, therefore It is not in the
least remarkable that we should rely
implicitly on his keen judgment. 1t must
not be supposed by this. however, that
Moran is not open to suggestions. On
the contrary. he has an open mind and
II, as sometimes happens at our meet
lngs, a suggestion Is made that does
not coincide with something that he has
previously told us. he will weigh the
new idea, look at 1t from all angles
then make his decision. II he thinks the
players suggestion Is the better he will
adopt that and discard the old one. But
when he once decides on a certain line
of attack or defense, he wants that plan
carried out and IL is--otherwise somebody
is In for good call
