dugo, man from Flanders where
peoples grow-who, after a doubtful
record among the whites, had taken
up abode among the Indians. This
man, Hanyost by name, learned that
KiOdago and his bride were In a hunt
ing camp on a beautiful lake. They.
went there surprised the camp. and.
entered upon debauch of Wholesale
murder
They had been told to kill the IN
dams right and left but were warned
to spare Frontenac's daughter. The
attack was made before dawn. In
the dim light they saw the girl flee
into the forest, carrying her baby.
Behind her, screening her flight, now
hating to shoot an arrow or two,
now turning to run, was her husband
Kiodago. They followed him..
One by one the Frenchmen fell.
Finally the young mother, almost faint
ing with fatigue, dropped to the.
ground. Kiodago, his thumb torn by
bullet, and with one arrow left, turned
TO make his last stand.
Hanyost and two French soldiers
were hot upon his trail. Kiodago
knelt, took careful aim, and his bow
string sung. The arrow, legend says,
transfxed the body of HanyOst. The
other two Frenchmen fed. Kiodago,
his last arrow gone. lifted his wife and
baby and together they vanished into
the deep shadows.
The old Count de Frontenac never
again set eyes on his nut-brown
daughter. She had returned to type.

studies of a program and has submitted
the results of these studies to me. l

concerned.

Who, for instance, would have
thought O year ago that "Gabby"
Street would be managing Q

gotten figure Of the forgotten
past at that time, he was only
. coach Of pitchers with the Car
dinals. Even five weeks ago, it
looked as though he would do
wen to finish in the first divi-
sion. But this is . whimsical
game.
Otherwise, how can one
account for "Sparky" Adams,
who was traded away from
the Cubs and Pirates just In
time to help . champion win?
Then there is Frankie Frisch,
who so irked John McGraw that
he sent Frank to st. Louis and
into two world series, not to men

called from the Coast League by

IN GREAT
SHAPE

George Earnshaw, husky right
handler, is certain to get plenty Of
work as one Of the Philadelphia
AS starting pitchers in the forth
coming world series. Earnshaw
and Lefty" Grove have been
the faces Of the AS this year,
both having achieved the distinc'
ton Of winning more than IS BAH
games.
Earnshaw is in his prime. He
is only 80 years old. He vas /,
born in New York city on Feb
ruary is, 1900. He bats right
handed as well as pegs with the
right flipper. He is s feet 4
inches in height, weighs about
200 pounds and can burn" the
bali across the plate when neces-
sity demands.
He joined the Baltimore club
Of the international League in
1924 after leaving Swarthmore
College. His first year with Bal
tirnore he won z games and lost
none for a percentage Of 1000,
which certainly was getting off
on the right foot.
The following year he won
20 and lost II: IN 1925 he
won 20 and lost IA and in
1927 he won IL and lost 18.
by this time Connie Mack
had his eye ON him and the
following spring he came to
the As.
In 1928, his first year in the
majors, he participated in 26
games and pitched 158 innings.
He was credited with winning 2
games and losing Z for q per-
centage Of 500, which was only
fair.
Last season, however. Earn
shaw found" himself. He was
one Of the main reasons why
the AS won the pepnant. He
was credited with winning a
games and losing only 8 for q
percentage of .75O. He took part
in 4 games and pitched 255 in i
ningS, which was plenty Of work
even for a fellow of his great
bulk.

It was Little Andy's" great

out Of the world series and vir-

last swing around the circuit
trailing the Robins by q game.
With the score tied, 0 to Q. In
the tenth inning Of . crucial
three-game series High was sent
up to hit one against "Dazzy
Vance, who was pitching one Of
the most brilliant games Of his
long career. High slammed .

That game put st. Louis out IN

On Q number Of other occa-
sions, High broke up important
bah games, notably that famous
2O-inning game with the Chicago
Cubs.
High is anything but a colOrful
player but he's q great fellow to

age to .S26, the best he has ever
made. He was used at second
base that season and played in

However, in midseasOn, 1875,
