BEAUMONT, Tex, Sept. B. There is nothing like an occasion al allnight bus ride to imbue a young minor ball player with am- bition to seek change.
 Walter Newman spent three years in the Texas league. He failed to deliver for Beaumont this season and went to Lake Charles in the Cotton States on option.
 He complained to Rube Stuart. owner of the Beaumont club, when Stuart visited Lake Charles about the bumpy all-night bus rid S around the circuit and sought a change where he could sleep.
 Well, the best way to get out is to pitch your way out" Stuart ad- vised.
 Newman's next effort, two days later, was a no-hit, no-run game against Vicksburg.

 This may be the command at the ringside as the result of an order issued by the Illinois State Boxing Commission requesting pro- motors to provide stretchers, ready to remove knockout victims, unable to walk from the ring.
 The usual procedure has been for the handlers to toss the fight CTS over their shoulder but the Commission considers this a very ungentlemanly way to treat a box CT who has been knocked out.

FOOTBALL OLD STUFF
 FOR CHINESE WOMEN

CHICAGO, Sept. 5.-A fif- teenth century ink painting, discovered by a Field mu- scum expedition in China, dispoSes of the idea that football is a modern game for males. Chinese women played football and forgot about it before the Indians were conquered in this coun- try.
 The painting, work of an unknown Chinese artist, de- picts a garden party with some women enjoying music and picking posies, while others engage in what is now the popular college sport of America.

You hear mainly about Grove and Walberg, the southpaw speedball ,stars, when anyone is discussing the pitching staff of the Athletics .but if the House of Mack bucks into the House of Wrigley in the forthcoming worlds series, it is not unlikely that Old Jack Quinn and Big George Earnshaw, right handlers, will take over good share of the attempt to check tine heavy hitting Chicago array.
 Along baseball alley, they think the portside stuff of Grove and sWalberg will be soft for the Bus tin Bruins, most of whom are sright-handed hitters With Will son, Hornsby. Stephenson and Guy i, Yer coming up in row to swing from the starboard side, it is any, thing from an encouraging prospect for a southpaw artist out there trying to hold his own against a crew that has been putting fast ones out of the park all season. , Earnshaw, horse for work, may be Connie Mack's best bet, assum- ing the Cubs furnish the opposition Big George got under the wire with khis 18th victory of the season well ahead of Lefty Grove, who had a sizeable start on the right-hander.
 Quinn has put on another come back after slipping earlier in the campaign. Old Jack, the Mike McTigue of baseball, still has a lot of deception in his moist-ball ydelivery. He can't stand as much work as Earnshaw but after 25 tyears in the game and at the age of 44-if the record books are right A-he can outsmart the best of them
 The last time the Cubs and As mingled in the worlds series, Mack used only two right-handers to win. Colby Jack Coombs won three games and Chief Bender gc. an even break in the other two played. Eddie Plank didn't get into action.
 At the rate he has been going so far this season, it is difficult to see how Eric Pedley can fail to win a place or the new American polo Big Four" now taking shape in anticipation of renewal of the International Cup series with Great Britain next year.
 Right now the stocky Californian .is one of the most improved play CTS in the galloping game. In high ,goal competition, he has turned in number of smashing perform canoes, adjusting himself skillfully to any one of the first three posi- tions on the field. The only post he has not taken whirl at is back but so long as Winston Guest is available, there is no need to worry about that place in the American lineup.
 Pedley was an international sub stitute two years ago but he had s1ittle chance then. with Stevenson, Webb and Milburn still in the seame Now these three veterans are in the background while the new American team is being built around the one and only Tommy Hitchcock.

n. M. s. Falcon, cruiser on the
China station. One of them is invited
to stay for dinner by her fiance. The
chaperon Is not agreeable to this ar
rangement, for she recalls similar ex-
to spend the night aboard an Ameri-
can destroyer "alone with 80 sailors" +,
However. there Is mishap to the
launch and the three ladies are forced
to remain aboard the ship. There fol-
lows series of incidents which involve
not only the officers Of the Falcon, but
the commander-in-chief of the fleet.
A climax is reached when the admiral's
wife and daughter suddenly appear and
the former, in righteous indignation, de-
clares she will leave for England i'm
saved, however, when the chaperon,
who has momentarily disappeared
aboard the ship, returns to the scene
and recognizes the admiral's wife as the
girl who had spent night aboard the
American destroyer. Confronted with
her own experience, the wife quickly
relents and there is a happy ending to
the dilemma.

not be quite so cleverly drawn, they

The Theater Guild presents, as the
opening attraction of its first Washing
ton subscription season, Eugene O'Neill's
Marco Millions" at the National
Theater.
The genesis of Eugene O'Neill's idea,
which led him to go fishing in search
of an ancient Rabbit and finally. after
to snare Marco Polo on his barbed hook
out of the thirteenth century and to
land him on the modern stage, with
the able assistance of the Theater
Guild, is one of the many enhancing
thoughts that are set in motion after
witnessing this play. The schoolboy s
idea of Marco Polo conceives this
ancient Venetian as the Christopher
Columbus of his time; a man with a
soul that urged him at least to break
away from the relative isolation Of
Venice, to start in the direction of the
rising sun and to keep going. And the
notes he made of what he found and
what he saw have brought him down
through subsequent history as re-
porter with nose for news" If, in
cidentally, he amaSsed worldly goods on
his quest and came back to the home
town as the original boy who made
good. that fact has never been held
against him.
MI. ~ INSAlI, llONCFSA, AAdo tuAilbiC> =
over another idol and does 1t delight
fully. His Marco Polo symbolizes the
generally accepted theory of evolution
of the modern Rabbit. whose soul
fades with his youth and his conquest of
materialism. His dramatization Of
the wanderings of Marco becomes a
satire on Babbitry and. incidentally,
religious orthodoxy. Mr.. O'Neill, nat
urally. does what he sets out to do and
does it we'll If there is a flaw in his
philosophy it lies in depriving Marco
Polo and his brethren of any good
points whatever. They do have their
good points Using term that con-
notes something very definite, they get
things DONE" for instance. And II
there were no one to get things done"
in this world, where would any of us,
including Eugene O'Neill, be?
Mr.. O'Neill'S Marco Polo makes up
in symbolism and color what it lacks
in historicity. The original Marco did
not cover so much ground in such a
short time as Mr. O'Neill's Marco and
if the original Marco had any love
affairs en- route he. failed to jot them
down. But this latter deficiency is not
incongruous. 1t is doubtful II Mr..
ONeiliiS Marco would have made arly
