theories on how the Pirates could be
beaten: They were merely theories, ap-

showed the Pirates victors in most OF
their games against the Robins.

league club hand angled for his
services but Joe always expressed a
preference for the Lone Star State.
Eight years back, Detroit made a
deal for Pate but Joe said he wanted
none of the big league. Knowing
this, Detroit relinquished its claim
and he continued to go big in Texas.
Two years ago pressure was
brought to bear on Joe and he
consented to take a whirl at the
majors as a member of the Phila-
deIphia Athletics.
PITCHED IN ~ GAMES
t- HEN Pate made his debut as
W/l a big Lacquer, he was in the
w early thirties and had passed
the peak of his pitching days.
It didn't take Connie Mack long
to discover Pate would be- Of the
greatest value to the Athletics as
pinch pitcher.
A relief pitcher must have control
and something a little bit different
to offer the batters in attempting
to stop a rally. Joe had control and
a knuckle ball that was tough to
hit.
/ doubt if ever a pitcher in his
first year turned in such unique :
and extraordinary record. Pate,
working in forty seven games, was
credited with nine victories and
no defeats. He saved perhaps as
many games as he won.
No LUCK THIS YEAR
RI HIS year Pate encountered
just the reverse breaks" OF
~ last season. His control
wasn't so good and the opposing
batters refused to offer at his al
most unhittable knuckle ball, know
ing that majority of times it failed
of strike specifications.
AS August drew near Pate had
worked in something like thirty-five
games and had not been able to
score a single victory. Despite this,
it wasn't until late in June that he
was beaten. In all his major league
career he has lost only three games,
his record being nine victories and
three defeats
A game in which the opposition
made seven hits while he was re-
firing one batter settled Pate's big
league career and the finish was of
his own volition. He requested
that he be sent back to the Texas
League.
PRAISE FROM BOSS
ut first Connie Mack refused
a to take Pate seriously, but his
= continued insistence caused
Mack to accede to his request. So
Joe went back to dear old FIT. Worth

LONG MAY III WAVE

On June IA, 1777, exactly $50
year ago today, the American flag
was adopted by resolution in the
Continental Congress. The anniver-
sary Of the birth of the flag is set
aside as Flag Day. and is observed
as such by all patriotic citizens. The
nature of the observance is left to
the conscience Of citizens and eX-
tends from a contemplation OF the
flags history in the schools to pub
lie exercises. The majority OF people
no doubt celebrate the day by
reading up" on the flags history at
the family fireside and displaying 1t
until sunset.
The flag symbolizes the hard-won
liberties Of the American people,
their spirit OF achievement, and
love OF country. 1t typifies might in
good cause and the power Of JUS
tice.
Flag day is not the robust holi-
day OF some other festive occasions.
but 1t Is day OF introspection and
contemplation, a mental holiday, so
to speak, which concentrates upon
the exalted idealism that brought
forth the 10 colonies and has guided
their development into the world S
mightiest state.

LINDBERGH'S FAME
AND THE FUTURE,

How long will Lindbergh last? the
cynics are asking. This is nation
which makes and unmakes heroes in
about equal proportion and with
about equal speed it is said. Rarely
has anybody, perching on the pedes-
tai of universal esteem, failed to
make the breaks that brought all
but oblivion.
But this Lindbergh, we rather
think, is made OF different stuff. He
carries himself with the knowledge
that the puffery Of adulation is not
the last and final attribute of a life
worth while. He accepts the honors
like a gentleman, with dignity and
poise; but he has given no sign of
abandoning those fine qualities
which raised him from the status of
an unknown flier several months
ago to the position OF the world S
ambassador without a portfolio
If one makes a list of American
heroes of the recent past and then
asks what has happened to them,
the answer will be distressingly
monotonous. The temptations that
come to heroes nowadays are vastly
greater than ever before. We make
heroes quicker but we also throw
more temptations into their paths;
money, contracts for more money.
everything from kissing girls to
moving pictures. This is perhaps
why they so frequently .ind trouble
in keeping their feet on the ground
1t is in everyDody's bones, it is in
everyone's mind as if by instinct that
Lindbergh will remain the
unsullied and dignfied youth he has
shown himself to be at this time.
Temptations to slip may be great
he can have nearly anything In the
world. all the normal heart holds
dear: but b. gives not the slightest
sign Of heng uGdGly interested in
what his exalted reputation can gain
