 New York, July 3.-Seyeral years from now, when the crickets of base ball, as Petey Browning used to call writers. brouse around looking to see what they did in old times. they will come across the doings of the month of June, 1921. in the little red book
 They'll look over some of the things that happened, rub up their specs" and mutter to themselves tbat the "comet struck the United States about that time"
 They will be justified, because this departing month of June has been Buster from Baskerville. About a half score of times some batter has made two home runs in one game. Fifteen years ago when anything like this hapepned they got out the town band and serenaded the player and the manager of the club.

 Loser Rumored Dead
 The usual rumor. which unfailngly has been in circulation here after each big championship fight to the effect that the defeated fighter wae dead. spread throughout Paris this morning and the Associated Press this afternon was kept busy deny ing the rumor.
 There was one feature of the fight which on all 32 Paris newspaper 8 agreed--namely that each was the first to give Paris the news of the fight result. French interest in the bout was Indicated by columns of the French page space as compared with a brief and almost perfunctory am nouncement Of the return of Curie, the eminent scientist, with the gram of radium presented by American women, which had been expected to be a great occasion.

FROCKS FOR LITTLE MISSES
Dainty Effects From Combinations Of
Organdies: Georgette Excellent
for Party Wear.

This is the season for splendid bar
gains in materials, both remnants and
bolts of materials. If you do not make
your own frocks you surely can sew
for the younger members of the fam
fly. and 1t IS surprising what attrac-
tive little frocks can he fashioned at
home at moderate cost.
The daintiest effects may be OBJ
tained from combining two shades OF
organdie, suitable for child Of six or
eight. A short yoke Is fastened to
full skirt. which alternates with bands
of the two shades. A collar OF the
darker shade finishes the round neck,
and tiny puff sleeves lena quaint

Combination dresses afford a clever
way Of utilizing short lengths Of mate

Wool Jerseys with trimmings of
