Untimely Talk

Sometimes, returning from the
mart, my life is full of care, with
problems grave that break my heart
and ache and tester there. For
silence then my spirit pants; it is
the balm that heals; and I'd be glad
if all my aunts would cut out foolish
spiels. But they've a, dozen tales
to tell to make me stand aghast, of
piff1ing mishaps that befell since /
was with them last They see the
ghastly sweat of grief upon my pail
lid brow, but they won't make their
stories brief or any rest allow. The
gossip of the neighborhood> l hear
in all details; how Mrs. Bunk and
Mrs. Stood scrapped with their
fingernails; the Smiths were driven
from their fat, my Aunt Jemi1na
drools, because they kept an Are,
dale cat. which was against the
rules; old CATER Twinkle heat his
wife, with many lusty smacks. be-
cause she used his pocketknife to
pry out rusty tacks. I'm wearied by
the beastly grind, I'm jaded and dis
traught. and | have problems in my
mind that call for sober thought.
And all the females of my house,
my aunts and nieccs nine, are chirp-
ing round like startled grouse. and
wrench this heart of mine. When
man. who wins the daily bread. to
his bleak dwelling goes his aunts
should merely soak his head and
let him have repose.

WHEN GIANTS GOT THREE RUNS

was courage and skill that enabled
long George Kelly to straighten out
a Joe Bush foxkball in the eighth in
ming Of the game yesterday. when the
Giants were one run behind and the
bases were full with two out. He had
just been belittled by Miller Higgins
the Yankee manager. who had order
ed Bush to pass Pep" Young to get
a chance at the "easy mark"
That play was the climax of the
game and the series. and will remain
a matter of controversy. Some say
that Higgins was justified Elm having
Young walked 10 get at Kelly. Many
including McGraw himself. say it was
smart baseball. Long George was the
weakest batter in the winning lineup.
Young was an almost hitting certain
ty.
But Higgins did not figure the hu-
man element that McGraw calls cour-
age. The Yankee manager had ex-
pected his pitcher, Bush, to be a sol
der. But Joe Is a star and tempera-
mental. Before the 10000 fans he
flouted his manager by plainly show

fast ones. Kelly, awkward and gaunt,
bent over the plate, his lips were set.
He gripped his bat tightly. He met

As in two OF the preceding games
the Yankees gained a lead and then
dissipated it.
In the first the Americans scored

In the second when Emil Meusei

of the outcome after the first few
minutes Of scrimmage.
The powerful plunges of the LOCAL.
backs netted big gains and the stellar
work Of the line kept Crookston from
coming close to scoring. A recovered
tumble, a forward pass, a straight
march down the field using line
bucks and a pretty 3o-yard by
ConmX were responsible for the Lee
gion. touchdowns. No points were
added after touchdown, four drop
kick tries going wide or being blocked.
The work of no individual stood out
conspicuously on the local team, all
of them playing strong games. ia

play the ball was fumbled and rolled
over the Crookston goal line, where
q Legion man fell on it for the first
touchdown. Try for goal failed. The
