you and Sissy might take over that team in
mixed doubles too"
Johnny was too surprised to speak. The idea
of entering the adult tournament. after al
ready winning the boys championship, had
never entered his head
st feel the same way Jim does, Johnny"
spoke up Sissy. "And I'd be delighted to have
you as partner in the mixed doubles"
Gee, that's great of you," said Johnny, his
eyes shining with gratitude. But do you think
they'd let me in? The entry list was closed
several days ago."
'I think I can fix it." said DR.. Jim. I'm
chairman of the committee for that tourna-
ment, you know and it's not so much under
Leighton's wing as the straight club events.
I'm sure the other men on the committee will
be willing for you to take my place in all
events, considering the tough luck that I've
had. They probably will never even think that
you might actually win the tournament. I
know that idea will never enter Leighton's head.
He has entirely too good an opinion of his own
ability"
Johnny drew a deep breath. well, if you
- can fix it," he vowed you can count on me
to break my neck to make a good showing for
you. And with Sissy partner-pardon me,
I mean Miss Darrow,-Tm not a bit worried
about the mixed doubles"
Great" cried Dr. jim "Iu get the other
members of the committee on the phone to-
night. We must settle it before the tourna-
ment starts tomorrow"
Johnny left the house q few minutes later,
his head fairly swimming. The idea had al
most bowled him over, but now that it had
had time to make an impression, he was
simply consumed by a desire TO justify DR..
Jim's faith in him. And in addition, there
was deep sense Of injury toward Mr.. Leigh
ton. When Johnny said he would break his
neck to beat him. he literally meant it.
Early the following morning he received a
call from DR.. Jim. Everything is fixed for
you to take my place in the singles and the
mixed doubles" the doctor announced. How
ever, it couldn't be arranged in the mems
doubles but I'm just glad. You have your
first round singles match at 1890 today with
a man named Tupper, and you are in the bot
tom half Of the draw. while Leighton Is in the
top half. So you'll have to last to the finals
to meet him."
"I1l last!" promised Johnny grimly.

that such a suit would get very far. However

Third Quarter Reports.

NEW YORK, october 4 (SpeciaD -
Although there has been no appreciab BILE
improvement In business to warrant
the expectation Of increased corporate
earnings. it is nevertheless felt that re-
ports for the third quarter, which will
begin to make their appearance on a
large scale within the next week or
two. will show only small average de-
cline compared with the previous quar-
ter, as well as the corresponding quar-
ter last year.
Furthermore, the general reduction
in operating costs and the upward trend
in commodity costs are two factors
which have favored earnings in many
industries during the past three months,
which should exert salutary effect
upon securities prices.

CHICAGO, October flames r. Gar
field, Resolutions Committee chairman
Of the Republican National Committee,
in a radio address yesterday said that
Gov Franklin D. Roosevelt seeks to
wear the mantle of Theodore Roosevelt,
but it doesn't fit.'
THE Democratic candidates speeches
are filled with well turned phrases, vain
hopes and promises" Garfield said. He
deplores public debt, but is tied to a
running mate who would add billions to
the tax burdens of the people.
He talks about economy, but has
failed to oppose the unjustidable in
crease Of the proposed bonus. He talks
of aiding agriculture by methods which
already have been tried or are being put
into effect.
In his speech at Sioux City, Iowa,
Roosevelt said he wishes the farmers to
sell their products for higher prices and
to buy their needed commodities at
lower prices. Will he tell the laboring
man and the manufacturer the same
story?"
Garfield, son OF the twentieth Presi-
dent of the United States, said President
Hoover has met every emergency with
courage, patience and effective action"
and declared economic conditions would
be more quickly improved If the present

to be caricatured in newspaper car
toons, dramatized for radio broad

But who is Annie? How did she
become famous? What made her
"the orphan with ten million homes?
Her cartoon creator is Harold
Gray, who adopted the name for a
cartoon character as an appealing
one for an artist associated with Sid
