The doctor laughed. 81 ought not TO

terms he said. "A psycho-neurosls OF
the sort | mentioned is more commonly
known as railway spine.

and the physician continued: "A pa

patient is sure that something is wrong

seize upon. He genuinely believes that
there is something the matter, and, de-
spite TIE best efforts of the doctor, ne
will cling to the belief, perhaps, Tor

Hes got a three-year contract, and
he's got TO get back to work. guess

On the way home Donovan began TO
feel that he had been little harsh. After
all. Walter Johnson's fast one had come
ND pretty swiftly that black afternoon,
and if Sam Sulloway was little fright
cned to stand up to fast pitching again
he wouldn't be the first good player who
had gone gun-shy after 9 crack on the

soon as he got home. Ray was Sans

anybody else in the club.

Kept both eyes on Sans feet the first

the right foot swung away from the

ever crossed the plate. but Sam stepped
forward and singled sharply to right.
The teltale foot did not give way an
inch. Donovan grinned
There's nothing wrong with his
nerve he said to Hartzell, and then
he added, 81 guess | gave you the
wrong dope on that psycho-neurosls
business after all. But | wonder what
was the matter with him that kept MN
so long in the hospital
Hartzell grinned, also, but he was too
good pal to say a word about Har-
riette. the day nurse, the belle of Belle
vue. Sam hadn't told Hartzell thing,
but Roy had seen her and guessed the
rest. Roy was something of psychol-
ogst. although he didn't call it that.
He could generally figure out the sig
mails of the opposing club, and he always
knew when the pitcher would waste
one. and. on what ball the runner would

pitcher and catcher in the league, it ''as

Young lefthander in love.
Other players noticed that Sam was
grumpy and moody, but he hit even
better than before the accident, and
battcd the Yankees back into first place
before month had passed. Exactly
twenty-five days elapsed since his re-
covery when he was hit on the lead
again. 1t was not fast ball, to be sure,
which winged him this time, but again
he toppled in heap, and again the am
bulancc drove across the field for HIM.
1t was the same ambulance.
This time the recovery required only
two weeks, but it would have been
longer if Donovan had not insisted on
his return. Sam was still game, and
went right back into the lineup, but
only three days elapsed before he was
again sent sprawlng by a smash in the
head.
They'll never call that boy gun-shy."
remarked Birdie Cree to the other play
ers who stood around the injured attn
lete. "Why. from where stood it

"A Sam Sulloway was the most
promising recruit who had
ioined the club in ten seasons. he
was tall and lank and gawky. He was
,ed-haired and homely. He was lett

indiscriminately Sam could tease

him a mile a minute. He was sure

His batting was effective, though
hardly beautiful. but in the field he was
\ rare combination Of art and utility
Sulloway had the marvellous sixth
sense of the born outfielder. and where
the ball was going there Sam would go.
Slam bang, and with never trace OF
slackening pace, he would dash into a
hostile overflow crowd to make catch,
ard if something more substantial
stood in his way. such as a wooden fence
or concrete wall Sam would go as Tar
as he could, even if he had TO bounce
back again. Baseball writer's compared
him to Ty Cobb, and got away with 1t.
When June began Sulloway was hit

for a doctor. and then a priest. The
ambulance came all the way in across
the diamond and left big ruts between
first and second base. The inferno was
a fan. and there were tears in his eyes
when he told the reporters that 1t
looked bad for Sam and worse for the
Yankees. But the doctor had not flg-
ured sufficiently on the thickness OF
Sulloway's skull. After day or so the
ball player opened his eyes, and IN
couple of weeks he was out of danger
Though the first part of his recovery
had been rapid, his improvement sud
denly became tedious. Sin weeks
passed and he was still in the hospital.

Sulloway reported the next day, look
ing extremely fit. He was a little more
silent and moody than usual, but he
spoke up when something was said
about his staying on the bench, and in
sisted that he wanted to get back in the
game right away. Donovan was unwll-
