AS the Two Hundreth Anniversary Of

historians. The Division of Informa-
ton and Publication OF the United
States George Washington Bicentennial

Washington Bicentennial Commission.
the winning independence was not
wholly achieved on land, and George
Washington owed some measure of his
final victory to the naval activities of
the Colonies during the Revolution.
No less an authority than Admiral
Alfred 7. Mahan lays down the theorem
in one of his mastery volumes that the
battle of Saratoga and the surrender
OF Burgoyne constituted 'the decisive
event of the war; and that the capture
Of Burgoyne's army was made possible
by the shrewd operations Of tiny
American navy on Lake Champlain.
Most Americans will be astonished at
the reminder that the directing genius
OF that little navy was, of all persons,
Benedict Arnold.
+ As Admiral Mahan points out, Bur
goyne's surrender directly resulted in
Frances coming to the aid of the COL

helped bring about this decisive British
defeat. The British early noted the

THE BUSY MAN.

# you want to get favor done
BY some obliging friend,
And want promise, safe and sure,
On which you may depend,
Don't go to him who always has
Much leisure time tc plan;
But if you want your favor done
Just ask the busy man
The man with leisure never has
A moment he can spare
He's always putting off, until
His friends are in despair
But he whose every waking hour
Is crowded full of work
Forgets the art of wasting time
He cannot stop to shirk
So when you want favor done
And want it right away,
Go to the man who constantly
Works twenty hours day.
He'll find moment sure, somewhere.
That has no other use,
And fix you while the idle man
Is framing an excuse.

The fourth of the five-game Sc
ries will be fought out under the
lights tonight starting at 8 o'clock
and the Blues will end their stay in
daylight game Tuesday afternoon.
Homer Follows Error
Sundays initial tilt was annexed
by whisker as the Blues threat
ened to chase Horne in the late in
ningS. The home nine got away to
a flying start by scoring twice in
the first round on Goldman's triple,
McCanns double and Koenecke's
single. In the fifth the Indians
punched ouc Two more runs when
Walker got a life on Fette's error
and Koenecke followed with a cir
cult wallop. The fifth marker was
chalked up in the seventh and it
proved the margin of victory, Nc
Cams triple being followed by
Walkers three-base smash.
Akers poled one over the fence in
the second for the Blues first run
and an error by Goldman gave the
visitors another tally in the third
stanZa.
Smith Upsets Guessers
With Ed Holley marked up as the
K. g. finger in the second fracas
the sure thing boys" hoped aboard
the Blue bandwagon and gave odds.
They figured Smith a second
stringer, which he was, but it's a
good guess he'll be a regular start
ing pitcher from now on in.
Holley held the Indians hitleSs for
two rounds and famed two. Fred
Bedore faced him first in the third
and bounced a four-base drive over
the low fence in left field. In the
fourth, after one out, Koenecke
cleared the high fence in right for
run No. 2 and in the fifth with two
men out Walker drew a pass and
Koenecke tripled.
At Best With Men On
In the meantime Kansas City put
runners on the sacks, but always
Smith surprised them by tighten
ing. Fact of the matter, all through
the battle he was at his best with
the bases occupied.
Maintaining their extra base hit
attack against Holley, the Tribes
men rallied for three runs in the
sixth as Ray Fitzgerald led off with
a triple to the flag pole. Sigafoos
singled, Bedore doubled, Smith
sacrificed, Goldman scored a mate
with long fly and Mccain weighed
in with a single. Scoring ended in
that session, although both sides
threatened in the finishing in
nings.
