In the Steer sanctum. The club
that was supposed to have been
geared for the second half crown
resembled nothing so much as a
bush league outfit in dropping three
straight TO the nine which may OPP

Little surceass was seen for the
slumping Gallowayites today. They
found themselves at Buffalo stadi-
UNI in Houston. which was some

Sergeant GeorSe Connally took up
where Whitley Glazner and Tic Fra
sier had left off the two previous
afternoons in setting the leaders
down. 8 to 2. in the series final. In
limiting the Spuds to four hits he
set their bingle total for the three
days at ii safeties. Up TO the sew
enth round. when the visitors scored
both their runs, he did not allow a
blow.
The Spud debacle apparently has
spurred the Bluffs. Fr the second
straight afternoon Bailey's men
swept a double ill with the Export
ers, 4 to 3. and 4 to ?. In order to
lick Denny Burns in the first the
Bisons had TO scrap through 10 in
nings, scoring one run in each OF
the last four frames to nose OF the
Shipper ace. Flint Rhem had the
invaders well in hand in the night
cap while his mates bunchod their
hits off Grimm.
Del Pratt's Cubs tussled tn ough
one of the seasons longest games
before ekeing out a 5-to-4 triumph
over the Indians at San Antonio
and Shreveport salvaged its last
tilt at Fort Worth, 6 to 5.

Majority May Be Wrong.

One thing we do not profess to
believe is that might makes right,
though our protestations are not always
in accord with our practice in regard to
this. Politically We accept the will of
the majority, though we deem it a kind
OF duty to maintain an active minority
party in order to restrain the vicious
propensities of the majority in power.
No doubt a psychologist could recon-
cile the apparent incompatibilities and
make one think all these things are
exactly as--they should be. But no
psychologist can justify the attitude of
right-handed persons toward left
handed persons, at least not in the mind
of one who considers the matter in the
light of evolution-which is the only
light we have on it..
1t happens that there is just one left
handed person. naturally left-handed,
for every two dozen common ordinary
natural right handed persons. Left
handed persons are, then, somewhere
between SergeantS and lieutenants as to
prevalence. Oieutenants, by the way,
are still ''leftenaunts" in certain prov
inces.) Just because We have safe
majority over the left-handed is a poor
sort of reason for treating them conde-
scendingly or as though they were abb
normal. How do We get that way, in
the first place?
One cannot give this question of right
or left handedness much thought or
study without finding himself frequently
wondering why most of us happen to
prefer the right hand. and why practi-
cally all of us prefer to go through life
as one-armed individuals, SO far as our
everyday acts of skill are concerned.
knowing and observing persons who
have developed both hands for skillful
use, one is constrained to think that
observation-disclosures or left-handedness is
primitive habit and the super -race will
be ambidextrous.
Ofhand find I can write better with
my right foot Il am right handed) than
with my left. but feel positive that
with little daily practice shall write
as well or better with my left foot, and
I am going to waste some time in the
next few months practicing with my
left foot. I have always preferred to
hold base ball bat as a left-handeCi
batter does. though bat right handed.
/ have likewise preferred to hold a golf
club as q left-handed golfer does,
though shoot right handed. I never
did learn to connect with the ball in
base ball. but am sure would have
batted better had they left me to hold
the bat as pleased. I have a notion
there is some association between ones
vision and ones aim that should not be
interfered with.
Two letters written by the same lady
about year apart lie before me- One
