points the way through the safe

There are dangers, seeming

convictions of American rights.
STRAIGHT AHEAD shall be the
command, and when peace comes
the sober judgment of the world

In that worldwide respect and
confidence which needs only to be

baseball finds uncovered this season
are Roger Hornsby. the Cardinal in

catcher. oddly enough, both are
graduates from small Texas town
clubs and. at the outset OF the sea

Walters is the best all-around
catcher that has come up to The

the cOncensus of opinion among
baseball men who have seen the
peppery young Yankee in action.
And about the young Cardinal it
is said:
He is the most brilliant infield-

youth that has flashed into view
since Eddie Collins cast anchor in
the big leagues"
Walters came from Waco. Texas.
while Hornsby was secured from
