The policy of the Kansas City
Blues during the current series at
the ball yard seems to be the simple
matter of waiting for one or more
Indians to blow up in the stretch"
Meaning, in a way, that if the con-
test is close the percentage is in
their favor against the Betzelites.
For instance, Thursday, in the
eighth inning, Paul Florence stood
with his bat on his shoulder while
old Tom Sheehan eased three strikes
over the plate and Anderson was
left stranded on third and Russell
on first.
Oh, yes, Florence let out yelp,
but the umpire's verdict looked
right from the stand.
The Blues won the second fray of
the series, 4 to /, giving them two in
row. Bill Burwell opposed Shee-
han on the mound and pitched good
ball despite the defeat He allowed
nine hits and Sheehan six.
The two triples credited to the
Blues were ordinary singles that
went for three bases when Matthews
used poor judgment in fielding. The
ground is getting hard out there in
center, but evidently Matty hasn't
been informed of the fact.
Page Tom Logan
Tom Logan, superintendent of
grounds, hereby is advised to inform
the Tribe outfielders on the condi-
ton of the pastures.
1t took a double by Burwell to get
the one run scored by the home
talent. This important event hap
pened in the third stanza.
Miller opened the half with sin
gle and went to third on Burwell's
double. Matthews sent roller to
the pitchers box and Miller foolish
ly tried to score and was an easy

Il and his rather unexpected

felt he could spare an infielder OF

Larry Benton and a catcher like
lack Taylor.

Roush developed into one OF the
greatest outfielders in the game
after being traded away from New
York. Since returning to the Giants
he has played excellent ball.
There remains little doubt but
what he will do SO for a few more
years.

Ohm McGRAW, however, has
the courage of his convic-

by letting go of star in some spot
in which his club is strong he can
strengthen a weak link, there is no
stopping him.
In the spring while looking his
club over at Sarasota, Fla, McGraW
assured me that he was perfectly
satisfied with his infield. He feared
for the outfield and battery
strength.
Figuring that Terry could fill the
bill at first base, he parted with the
versatile George Kelly for Eddie
Roush. He wanted center fielder
to stabilize his outfield. Roush has
performed most satisfactorily in the
field, but has disappointed at the
bat.

Perhaps you have heard of Au-

Mr.. Jensen is a manufacturing
pharmacist who has built up a
splendid business, and a reputation
as well, in Montana and neighbor-

which is very unique.
He gave his product away to
thousands. His confidence in his
product was such that he has ex-
pended and is expanding a great
deal of money in advertising in or

product quickly established itself
on its sheer merits.

discovery OF a simple remedy, compound

proven very efficatious In a remarkable
number Of cases of stomach, liver and
bowel disorders.
After he had perfected his compound,
he cast about for some plan by which
individuals affected by these disorders
might be reached. He decided to adver-
tise that he would give away full-sized
packages Of his remedy, and thousands
Of individuals responded.
Then came the results. They were
made manifest by the receipt by Mr..

neighboring states, gratefully acknowl-
edging the appreciation Of the writer's,
