nqIo-American World
Series? And WHY Not?

LONDON, June e6.-World's Series
i9S2-London Teanghters VS.. comis-
keys White sox.
Il reads like a pipe-dream, but four
years ago this war would have sound
ed like a message from the padded
cell. SO, strange things may happen In
the next four years.
For instance, John Bull may have
ball club playing for fhe worlds cham
pionship.
John Is really taking an interest In
the grandolgame this yesr. learning all
there is TO be known about it, for the
flrst time since Wallie Skinelothes
leaned his knotted war club against a
falling persimmon. thus inventing the
pastime. back in the days when hign
society revels were staged In the tree
tops.
Eight American and Canadian ball
clubs are this seasons missionaries,
playing a full schedule as the Anglo
American league. Charity gets the i'm
mediate money receipts but the people
promoting this circuit have the ulti-
mate aim OF bringing England and
America closer together.
OF course this object has been sought
many times before. There have been
hlgh-bnow essays, summer tours for
rural schoolmarms and outward official
handclasps for years and years. Sons
and daughters Of the idle rich have
done their bit by playing International
polo matches and racing their little
yachts across the Atlantic for Tommy
Lipton's solid silver growler.
And up 10 the time we came into the
war the average Engllshman and the
average Yank understood each other
like you understand a Chlnest laundry
ticket.

Baseballs big success this year looks
like the real cure for the international
GOODNESS that has puzzled Anglo-Amer-
lean well wishers since the days Of
flfty-four-forty-or-1ght.
They like our slang over here, they
Ike our movies. our iazz-time songs
and even the English" styles for
mems clothes, fresh from the sweat
shops OF the u. s. A.
Eight thousand people, half OF them
Englishmen, clapped their hands and
cheered with singular lack OF restraint
as Admiral Sims stepped into the box at
Highbury football ground, London, May
IS, and opened the Anglo-American
league season by pitching the first ball
10 Mai Gen. Biddle. commanding Amer
lean soldiers In England.
Everybody Yells.
From that moment, through eleven
wranglesome innings, they heard hun
dreds OF brsss-throated doughbies and
Jacks unravel a vocal program that
brought back memories OF the Polo
grounds when Tinker and Evers and
Chance were earning Charlie Murphy's
biggest dividends.
English people cant resist c6mpsrine
baseball 10 cricket any more than
Americans over here can resist COM
pairing shillings TO dollars. Cricket
really means more than a game. When
an Englishmsn wants 20 say another
fellow is absolutely square he just says
"He plays cricket"
With cricket in his system our Eng
list friends thinks baseball a dull gans
II its played well. lie wants 20 see
lots OF actlon-long hits. much base
running and lot OF errors. In other
words his idea Of a good ball game is
our notion Of bad one. But he Is
learning.

And crawl out, their
Clothes are all dry In

Pressed up again.
And those movie visions.
The actor sits there,
And thinks about someone
For a half second, and
just like that. the
Person he's thinking OF,
Stands right before him
in a vision, smiling and
Beckoning 10 him, and
When he gets up TO

II vanishes. and he mops
on his brow, realizing
IL was only a vision.

Real life as often, and {
As easy as they do In

Picks up a paper looking
