stition is genera rpughout England
and the United ) except In Ala
bama where it t, &, they consider II
better to see the new moon first over
the left shoulder, II is curious how
they should have become twisted" In
Alabama, for the whole explanation of
the superstition points to the right
shoulder as the fortunate one to see
the moon over. The idea OF luck In
connection with the new moon is n
survival from the days when the cres.
cent was the symbol of Isis, from
whom came all that was good and
beautiful among men" Thousands of
years ago by the banks Of the Nile men
accounted II lucky to see the symbol
of Isis in the sky AS men do today by
the banks of the MiSslssippl-th
most Of the latter never heard of the
goddess. As to the right shoulder part
of the superstition that Is similar In
origin to the superstition about getting
out of bed right foot first and springs
from an association of ideas, facts and
words thus: Most normal people use
preferably the "starboard" hand to do
things with, which thus becomes the
right hand TO use and by extension
the term right has come to be APP
piled to all that side of the body To

the right" shoulder II may he asked
why oyer the shoulder Mt all? 1t Is
because of the idea associated with the

started the procession by taking
eight runs away from Filere in an

which the shippers were never able
to match.
Filere was soon relieved by benson

the bright lights with II strike outs
on one side of the ledger and two
singles and triple on the other
for the losers.

and double.
Polleys hard catch in the third,
followed by Gregory's error in judge
ment, which forced Duckworth out

In the fourth Ducky's two Dagger,
which scored Bodine and Bolinsky,
tied the score, was followed by
foul ball which retired the UNI

Purcell, however, courageously filled
in the gap and faced the angry mob.
In the last three innings the Shoe

were two singles in the 9Th, the
shippers was retired without tally.
Sam Holley wound up the game
with a fine catch in center.

Chris Knoster's hard hitting cut

Main Offices neck in tightly con-
tested battle at the ball park last
night.
The game was nip-and-tuck from
the very start and neither team Sc
cured substantial lead until the
sixth inning when the Office force
solved McCaffery's delivery for two
runs. The Cutters came back strong
in their half of the inning with a
double, single and three Dagger
which, coupled with an error, gave
them three runs and the game.
After day of banter back and
forth both teams took the arena with
fire in their eyes. The gallery was
unusually large and their cries for
blood would have kept the excitement
at fever heat even though there had
been a funeral.
From time to time the progress
was unfortunately hampered by the
numerous side-line games whose
players populated the right garden
for most of the session.
The fielding and batting of EN-
mons featured for the winners. his
exceptionally fine stop of Burnett's

in double play and retired the Of
