GIANTS AND PILLS
 MAKE FINE START
MCGraW and MOran'S Men Sustain
 No Defeats So Far

With the country at war, and de- baseball season got away to good start, and the first week ended with two teams tied for first place in the National league and four scrambling for the lead in the American league. Twenty-four games were played in the two leagues and eight were postponed because of bad weather.
 New York and Philadelphia, in the National league, each ended the open ing week with two games won and no defeats. Boston and Brooklyn were unable to withstand the clans of Nc Graw and Moran and were outbatted and outpitched in the brief series.
 Western Clubs Lucky.
 The Western teams in the older or ganization were able to play all their scheduled games. After Cincinnati had taken two games through good pitching by Schneider and Toney, St. Louis came back and took the final two games of the series.
 Pittsburgh, without the services of Hans Wagner for the first time in twenty years, made a poor start and lost three games to Chicago before it was able to wrest a victory from Mitchell's men on Saturday. Wagner, for years the leading batsman and shortstop of the National league, is reported to have quit the national game, but the famous star himself has not yet announced his retirement.
 Boston. Cleveland, Chicago and Washington each had two games won and one lost at the end of the first week in the American league, while the other four teams each had one game in the victory column and two defeats.
 Two for Rcd Sox. ....
 The champion Red Sox took two games from New York through superior pitching and batting and then lost the final game. It was a costly victory for New York. as it resulted in an injury to Third Baseman Baker which may cause his absence from the game for several weeks.
 Cleveland and Detroit contested their series hotly, with Cleveland talk ing the odd game. Walter Johnson with the first shut-out game of the season on Wednesday, helped Wash ington to one of its two victories over Philadelphia.
 Connie Mack's men, however, won on Saturday by making twenty hits for a total of sixteen runs.
 Chicago and St. Louis broke even in the first two games, and the White Sox won on Saturday through superb pitching by Cicotte, who twirled the first no-hit, no-run game of the major league season.

THE BLUE STOCKING
BY OSBORN JONES.

You know President Wilson began
his career as an instructor ina wOm-
ans college," said Justine CraddocE,
dean of Jones' College for Women,
when Alan Kilby went to her office to
consult her regarding his acceptance
of a position just offered him as the
new professor of economics.
Alan had gone to see her, partly be-
cause he had known her several years
before when they were both students
at co-educatiOnal college in the West,
and partly because the offer at Jones
college was distinctly better than the
assistant professorship he held in a
mans college. sE
Tt doesn't seem like a mans job"
he told her frankly, and she had looked
at him not with the amusement he
expected. -. ....-
Hang it all, Justine, it's just that l
can't stand this blue-stocking atmos-
phere. l think it's that as much as
anything else"
There are very few blue-stockihgs
here" said Justine. SIN fact, some
times 1 wish there were more. Blue
stockings have their good points, you
know" t- l4.3-r ca-

like a feminine woman, and it goes
against the grain to see these girls
some of them pretty, almost all Of
them healthy and happy, being fed into
this mill, to have the woman and the
femininity ground out. They ought tC
be marrying, most of them-marryins
and making men what they ought tt
be, and having children and keeping
house." ..-r -s.r, r.s
"Of course you have never married
yourself" suggested Justine.
