In and near Paris cast their ballots in
the recent election for Henri I-andru,

the police and accused Of being re-
sponsiblc for the disappearance Of l3
women to whom no Is alleged to have
promised marriage.
dis Witticisms have made him very
popular with tho Partisan public and
this accounts for the fact that 5000
persons erased the names OF candi-
dates registered at the Ministry OF the
interior and wrote Iandru'S nainc on
the ballot.
Landru was called before Judge

Some Funny Things.
Billy Evans, umpire par excellence
was tanning about some of the funny
plays he has seen during a recent
visit to New York. said Bill:
Il have seen many funny things
happen on the ball field. once
saw an American league out
fielder lose n fly ball In the sun,
have the ball strike him squarely
on the top of the head, and then
have the center fielder, who was
also in pursuit Of the hit, COM
plete the catch. The box score
gave the OutfieJder who had used
his head an assist on the play.
II was extremely funny to all
concerned, except the athlete who
lost the ball in the sun.
I once saw maJor-league player
hit for home run. only 10 learn upon
reaching the bench that he had re-
tired himself midway between first
and second. thereby pulling a colossal
bone There was a runner on first
when he made his drive over the
right 1ielders head. The runner on
first was a recruit. He believed the
1leider would make the catch and
played It safe by going midway be-
tween first and second The batsman
who hit the ball decided there was
no chance for the fielder to make a
play
He literally ran wild and passed
the runner originally on first mid
way between that base and second.
Of course the moment he passed the
preceding runner he was cut He
had hit the cleanest kind OF a home
run. yet in the records he received
credit for only a single"
