Until you actually see and hear the amazing new 1e30 Bosch screen grid models, you can hardly realize the tremendous improvement of these most modern receivers, over even the famous Bosch of a year ago!
 It is only natural to expect radio to be perfected year by year, but you will be wonder stricken that so many of the drawbacks to good radio reception could have been overcome in such short space of time. Such past diffi- tultlts as line hum, avoidable noisy re- eeptior weakened performance and

 "Oh. Willis. you are a darling," Nan tucked her head swiftly and laid her lips against the tanned hand that was gripping the steer ing wheel.

 Seventh floor. please" he star tied her by saying to the operator. Where were they going? Why? Their offices were on the ninth floor.
 He was still smiling and there was a flush of excitement on his arm and marched her down a long corridor.
 A man in painters overalls was standing before the door of Suite 71S. He did not look around. but with frowning intentness kept on with the delicate job on which he was engaged.
 Nearly finished?" Nan heard her husband ask briskly.
 The painter stepped back, sur veyed his work with prideful eyes. Yep. Pretty good job. if do say it myself"
 The best job you ever did in your life," Morgan answered with curious solemnity. his hand clos ing tightly over Mans.
 Nan could hardly read the new made sign, because of the tears in her eyes:

 Partners, Nan! Is that-good enough?' deep, husky voice asked.
 Nan did not dare look at him as she nodded; her heart was too full of joy and fear. What did he mean-is that good enough?"

She was reliving, over and over, that precious minute when Morgan had drawn her close, his arm about her shoulders; then, with sickening embarrassment, that other minute when Curtis amazing designation of her had been hurled like bomb into the room. What was he thinking?
 "You're not listening again, Mama" Curtis complained, but his voice was dragging with droWsi- ness. Can I go to the hospital to see Little Pat? And take Cop? Can l, Mana? Can I?"
 "Yes. yes" Nan promised rashly. Then, because his hand was drag ging at her shyly, she knelt down beside his bed and laid her hot cheek against his pale cheek until

 "Yes. Oh. Willis, what an awful fool I've been," She slumped into forlorn little huddle and be- gan to sob gaspingly against his coat sleeve,
 "Who says so?' Willis chal- lenged.

 "Then-will you?"

CRITIC SEES MACKS
UNDERESTIMATE
Thinks Club Is Better Than
Average That Has Won
Flag for AS.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER.

~OMPARING the Athletics Of
1929 with other teams put to-
gether at Philadelphia by Con-
~ ME Mack, 1t appears to be an
outfit a little better than the
average that Connie has produced when
he won pennants In the American
League.
From now on until the world series
snaps into action on october 8 the
sharpS win be picking flaws in the Phila-
delphia lineup by comparison with the
Athletic stars Of earlier years. OF
course, plenty Of arguments can be put
up with respect to individual players,
but in the rating Of the teams as q
whole the Athletics Of 1929 don't have
to do much bowling and scraping to
their predecessors.
At one time this season the Phila-
delphia team appeared to be stronger
than the final standings will prove 1t
to be. The fight that the Cleveland
Indians and the Chicago White Sox
made against the pennant winners was
the one thing that helped to pull them
down In percentage. The New York
Yankees made some resistance, but
nothing like that of former years.
Clinch Pennant Early.
This year the Athletics clinched the
American League pennant with fewer
than 100 victories-they gained posses
sion Of the title when they had won 96
games.
In 1918 the Athletics won the PEN
nant with 90 victories. They met the
Giants in the world series that year
and won.
The best record that the Athletics
have made was in 1910, when they won
102 games and lost 40. and followed it
up by annihilating the Cubs in the
world series.
In 1902 the Athletics won 80 games
and lost So. That record cannot be
taken up too seriously for comparison
because it was q Short-schedule season.
The only comparison to be made is on
the basis of percentageS>> and the
Athletics had only a fair rating with
$40.
In 1905, with long schedule, they won
the championship Of their league with
90 victories and So defeats, with per-
centage of 1922, which Is good But
they we're snitten hip and thigh In the
world series by the Giants because Of
good pitching of Mathewson and Nc
Ginnity; but the pitching wasn't all Of
1t. The Giants had q better ball team,
which the American League had to
admit, although 1t was a tough dose to
swallow.
Every Philadelphia team after 1905
was a little better than the first cham
pions of 1902 and 1905, and this years
team probably Is as good as tha& of 1910
or better.

TW|RLERS CERTAIN
T0HAVE TROUBLES
Pitchers Are Good, but They
Will Face an Array of -.
SWatters.
BY GEORGE MORIARTY,
Big League Umpire.

w YHILE the pitchers for the COM
M ing world series are master
MN craftsmen, there probably
will be no dearth of base
hits. And hits drive In the
runs and runs win the games.
Whether the pitchers are skillfull
enough to hold the murderous hitsmiths
of each club down is the vital question.
But I have the conviction that there
will be plenty of bullet-like drives
shooting between the fielders, regard
less Of high-class pitching. -
The great Hornsby is still a top
notcher at seeking the horsehide. Cen
eral opinion classes him as the best
right batter the game has pro-
duced, although he is no longer at the
peak Of his career.
Hornsby has a remarkably smooth
batting style. He stands at the rear
of the box and not too close to the
plate and his body swings into perfect
rhythm when he decides to take his
cut.
Stephenson Has Power.
Riggs Stephenson lacks the grace and
artistry of Hornsby, but makes up for
that in sheer power when he Is in a
hitting mood. Only year ago Roger
Bresnahan, then coach of the Giants,
and one Of the great catchers of the
past, told me that Stephenson was un-
questionably the most dangerous batter
in the National League. -
Hack Wilson of the Cubs is very
much in the smuggling picture. A short,
powerful stature lends punch to his
blows when the bludgeon meets the
ball. Wilson Is a greatly improved
batsman over last year, when he led his
circuit in strike-outs. Manager Nc
Carthy showed his confidence in Will
fam he L. al
him in the cleanup position. Cuyler
is putting the finishing touches on his
best season. Cub partisans are expect
ing batting punch from these worthless
that will give them something to talk
about. -
Now take the Athletics into consid-
Grafton as collectors of base hits. AL
Simmons is at the top of his game and
is one Of the most devastating batters
the game has known. Simmons differs
widely from any other batter in style
and form. Holding the bat at the ex-
IRENE end, he is likely to connect with
any kind Of a delivery, as his reach,
leverage and power give him unusual
advantage over the average slugger.
Simmons Hits EN- All. ~.
Simmons is unique because he makes
no choice between a bad pitch and a
Sooo Oilc. 4uey al lOOh alike 10 nun
and therein lies the secret of his sue
cess. When he makes up his mind to
hit the delivery must be well aimed
pitch-out to avoid his terrific cut
Jimmy Foxx is just as powerful and
dangerous, although he has a purely
orthodox style. Cochrane is southpaw
batter and is extremely dangerous at
all times because of his clean-cut TIM
ing and the power behind his blows.
Neither do believe in leaving Bling
Miller out of the sluggers' picture. He
has always been one of the hardest and
most timely batters of the major leagues
and is capable of wrecking a ball game.
1t should be worth several times the
price of admission to watch these Phila-
delphia and Chicago sluggers In the
heat Of the coming battles.
