After a long run. a successful sea

tered the big Time" the worlds
series. Casey had phyed his small
part well and was kept IN. In the
first day, the first game of the
worlds series with the Giants. Casey
won fame. He made a great hit, a
home run that won the game. And
Casey was talked about. His name
appeared In The bright lights.
On the second day Casey's small
part was played by another player.
Those who ven to sec, shouted for
Casey. but It was not Casey's day.
Casey was back on the Job yester-

batters at bay. being aided at times
by the smart. snappy work of the
men behind them.
