If it had been Diana the last
six weeks rose before him, a night
mare panorama.
He had tried to do the best thing
for her, and he had done the worst.
He had meant t. be kind, and he had
only succeeded in being brutally cruel.
In an aching imagination he saw her
again sitting at that long dining table
in her white frock-so far away from
him and so brave. He had not guessed
that it had been as great a torment
to her as it had been to him.
Surprising he had still been away?
He knew that the chances were that
Diana would have died. This night
F, had settled all question of the future:
net again would he let her go away
from him. -. He would have to find
some way :. Then suddenly he re-
membered-the river-and Hobson's
broken story.
He was free, but at what / cost.
The life of the woman whom he had
cared for and sheltered for so many
years, and the life of a boy who as
yet had known nothing of life. Per-
haps in that Jonas was fortunate: he
was a dreamer, and dreamers suffer.
Rathbone knew that now the story
OF his mirage would have o lie made
known: something fresh for the claws
of sossiping vultures to tear t o pieces.
Net that he cared for himself, but it
hurt him inexpressibly for Diana's
sake, and in a lesser degree for Ros.,-
hes, She had meant nothing in his
life, and yet he knew he would never
forget her, the pitiful, unreal thing
that had lived for so long in his shaw
ow.
Resale, wife of Donald Rath-
bone"
That was what the vultures would
expect him to write on her tombstone;
there seemed something of sardonic hu-
mour in it as he sat there, his eyes
on Diana's face.
She was his wife-the one love of
his life; ever if he had never seen her
again, nobody would ever have drawn
near to her place in his heart.
Half child, half woman, spoilt, will
ful-intolerant of life when it went
the way she did not wish-he yet lov-
ed her with every impulse of his mai
hood.
And she loved him; for a moment
he lost himself in the wonder of that
thought-and of her sleeping face.
Somewhere in the house a clock
chimed six, and he stood up, stretch
ing his arms, feeling wearied to death,
and yet, amidst all the tragedy sur-
rounding him, conscious of a quiss,
perfect happiness which nothing could
spol!
Diana stirred a little, as if conscious
OF lis movement, fearing that he was
leaving her.
Rathbone stood still, and she turn
ed her head, looking at him with half
conscious eyes, whispering his name.
Donald ..."
"Yes, my heart"
Her hand fluttered a little towards
him, and he took it in his, quiet and
strongly, as if with it he took her also,
body and soul.
He saw a little doubt flicker across
her eyes and vanish.
"It-isn't a dream?" she asked.

Judge Eases Up
Harsh Sentence

Besides having gone hungry for
three days, Clarence Humpy, 81,
Negro, did not think they arrested
people in this country for steal
ing watermelons.
AT least that was what he told

when he was arraigned in police
court on a charge of snatching a
watermelon from a truck at the
loading station here. On a plea
of guilty to petty theft Judge
Nuffer sentenced Humpy to 80 days
in Jail, and suspended the sentence
on condition he leave town.
Ed H. Everett, 25, was fined $50
for reckless driving, and was re-
leased on promise to pay the fine.

Eastman Makes
Two Records In
Lengthy Sprints

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-U.P)
If a tape had been stretched
across the quarter mile mark Ben
Eastman, Stanford middle distance
runner, might have set three rec
ords in one race Saturday during
the Pacific Athletic association
track and field championships, but
he was clocked only at the $780,
yard and 800-meter finish lines, so
today he had to be content with
new world records in those dis
tances only.
Eastman, celebrating his record
breaking performance exactly one
year before in the same meet,
flashed across the 800 meters line
in 1:50 flat, siX-tenths of a second
faster than the recognized world
mark set by Sera Martin, French
runner.
Then, sprinting on to the 680-
yard tape, he was timed in 1909.
DR.. Otto Peltzner, German star,
holds the recognized record for
this event in 1:516. And Eastman
has made the race before in 1:51.3
A slight wind was blowing at the
time Blazing Ben" raced to his
double victory, removing any doubt
that the tie would be given full.
consideration when presented fol
, official recognizance.
I Bob Kiesel, University Of Cali
fornia's bid for fastest human hon"
ors, also turned a sparkling 100
meter race, equalling the world
mark of 10.4.
Aided by an eight-mile per hour
wind at his back, Ralph Montague,
University of San Francisco sprint
er, equalled Roland Locke's time OF
20.6 in the 200-meter race.
The Olympic Club of San Fran
cisco won the meet, gaining SO So
points; Stanford was second, with
581a points, and University of San
Francisco third, with 18 points.

BOSTON BRAVES
SHOVE TERRY'S
TEAM In CELLAR

NEW YORK, June 6. U.P)-Bill
Terry, nursing a sore leg anc
smarting under his first setbacks as
, manager of the New York Giants,
took advantage of today's respite in
the league schedule to plan de-
fensive campaign against the pro-
longed western invasion which op-
ems at the polo grounds tomorrow.
In sharp contrast to his impos-
ing debut Saturday, Memphis Bills
new regime received an unholy shell
lacking at Boston yesterday when
the Braves downed the Giants
twice. 6 to 5, and to 6. Bill him
self was carried off the field in
the first inning of the nightcap
when he pulled a muscle in the
calf of his left leg while beating
out hit to first base.
These two defeats tumbled the
Giants back into the cellar again
Cincinnati starts play tomorrow
and st. Louis completes the in
vasion on June %. BY that time
the New York fans will have de-
cided whether Memphis Bill is a
manager or merely one of the best
first basemen in the game.
Terry yesterday blasted out a
double and three singles in five
times up in the opener, but the
Braves nosed the Giants out in the
/ 10th inning when Art Shires dou-
bled, driving in the winning run.
Terry drove in two more runs
with a single in the first inning of
the second game, and it was while
running out this blow that he was
injured. He hopes to be back in
the lineup tomorrow.
The st. Louis Cardinals took
both ends of a twin bill from the
Cincinnati Reds, to 2 and 3 to
2. This boosted the Cards to
fourth place. Pepper Martin drove
out home run in the opener.
Philadelphia Phillies rose out
| of the cellar by nosing out Brook

homer for the Dodgers in the

Pittsburgh at Chicago was washed

FOURTH SINGLES
CROWN CAPTURED
BY MRS. MOODY
BY WALLACE CARROLL
United Press Staff Correspondent


PARIS, June 6. - Mrs. Helen
Wills Moody with her fourth
French singles title and her por-
tion of the doubles title tucked
away in smart little handbag, left
for London today to prepare for
the Wightman cup tennis matches.
The attractive San Francisco star
captured the singles crown for the
United States again yesterday when
she defeated Nine. Rene Matthew
of France, 7-5, 6-1, in the finals of
the French tennis championships at
Auteuil.
This victory and the triumph of
Mrs. Moody and Miss Elizabeth
Ryan in the doubles gave the Unit
ed States the honor of taking two
titles in the tournament.
Although far superior to any Eur
opean opposition encountered as
she swept through the tournament,
tennis experts agreed that Mrs.
Moody did not display the same
brilliant brand of tennis with
which she took the singles title in
1923, 1929 and 1880.
Handicapped by blistered feet
yesterday, Mrs. Moodys play was
decidedly defensive during the ear
lier part of the match. She start
ed slowly, and Nine. Matthew won
the first three games before the
American champion finally broke
through on her own service to take
the fourth game. Mrs. Moody lost
the 10th game, but broke through
the French woman's service in the
11th. Nine. Matthew overtaXed her
self and tired quickly in the second
set.
The California player was fresh
at the finish, but Nine Matthew
had to be assisted to the dressing
e rooms.

Stefani of Italy in the final of the

IN T0DAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 6. - Your
correspondent who came down Sat-
urday to broadcast the congression-
al baseball game between the Dem
ocrats and Republicans asks, from
his cot in one Of the capitals bet
ter delirium wards, to give off a
few remembrances of that strug-
gle.
Here are a few of them:
l. Congressman Kelly DemD IL
linois, sliding into second in the
third inning All that was needed
to turn the picture into duplicate
of a ship launching (three ton
cruiser) was for somebody to tap
Kelly on the head with a bottle of
Mumm's.
2. Umpire in Chief Gene Tunney
ending the game by ruling high
fly an automatic" out. Gene didn't
even wait for the ball to land.
3. The Republicans fine gesture
in the ninth when they sent in 63-
year-old Congressman Guyer OF
Kansas, as a pinch hitter. Guyer
amazed everybody, including him
self, by rapping the ball sharply
on the nose, and then heading
toward third base. He was hand
ed a road map in time, however
! to change his direction and beat
out the hit.
4. The striking picture of bore
dom presented by Mister Harry
Geisel. American League umpire
who called the balls and strikes
Twice Geisel had to be awakened
by rap on the shins, in time to
call a foul tip ball.
5. The weary manner in which
Tunney moded his dogs around af-
ter the fourth inning. Five rounds
with a flyweight, now and he'd be
ready for the wet wash.
7. The dizzy preliminaries to the
game. which included Nick Altrock
leading the army band, Jim Lon
dos wrestling Nick Altrock, Jim
Londos wrestling himself, the par
ade of a moth eaten elephant and
moth-eaten donkey, and speech
by somebody, which began This
great game
8. The magnificent look of be-
Wilderment on the faces of the for
eign diplomats as they watched the
burlesque.
