peaIs for National So

Addressing the Daughters Of the
American Revolution at Constitution
Hall this morning, Frederic William
Vile, Washington political writer and
broadcaster, appealed for the national
society's support Of the constitutional
amendment to provide the voteless
District Of Columbia with suffrage
rights.
1T is always a welcome opportunity

sense, than we in Washington are
aware Of the unfair, unjust, un-Ameri-
can disabilities under which we suffer.
We rejoice at chance to let you
know that there is pending before the
Congress proposed constitutional
amendment to right the District Of Co.
lumbia's wrongs.
Some day, we trust, you of the States
will have the opportunity to support our
cause, when that amendment comes to
you for ratification. To no element in
the national community would Wash

confidence than to members of the Ma
tional Society of the D. A. r. Your
ancestors fought to establish the right

SENATORS TO
BEAT GIANTS,
CUDDY THINKS
Latter Have Edge Only on
Mound and Behind
the Plate
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK. Oct. 2.-CUP)---
Washington should win the world
series. beating the New York
Giants / games TO ,
After analyzing the two clubs
from al angles, we are convinced
that the classic will be hard
fought because it matches two
spirited. fighting teams, but it
seems physically impossible for
the Giants to take 4 out of 7
games from Joe Crou;n's beauti-
fully balanced Senators.
The element of chance looms
big in every ball game and in
every series. but we see no good
reason why Sally Fortune should
not display her bridgework Just IS
readily for the best hitting and
best fielding club in the American
circuit as for the Giants who oc.
.cupy fifth place in batting and
third place in fielding in their
league.
Only on the mound and behind
the plate do the Giants have an
edge over Washington, and that
edge is slight. The Senators are
slightly superior III the outfeld
and have q distinct advantage in
the infeld-particularly because
Of the uncertainty at New YOrk's
third base.
Carl Hubbell may win one game
for the Giants, and a combination
of other New York pitchers mag
achieve a second victory. Other
than that we can visualize no adj
ditional triumphs for the Terry
men.
New York admirers believe that
Bill Terry's pitchers will carry
the club to victory. 1t must be
however, that the
Senators also have brilliant
mound Staff-a staff that won over
seven other clubs whose general
batting average is .271, while the
Giant fingers were opposed to
seven clubs averaging .266.
Washington has q devastating
punch, an average Of .289. This
is three points better than the
.286 with which tha mighty New
York Yankees won the pennant in
1882. Moreover. the Senators won
the 1881 pennant handily from
the Yangs. who, though slightly
shOpwOrn, have hit .284 stride.
When the Senators were pressed
this season, their new 'murderers
row. swung into action. and for
a while the club was hitting .306.
They've driven in 794 runs,
against the Giants 500 batted in.

win under pressure, and both are
steady and cool under fire. Terry
has a slight edge over Cronin in
baseball experience that may be
utilized in directing the battles,
but Cronin is plenty smart and
quite willing to listen to safe
counsel from Clark Griffith.
The Giants have 4 slight advan-
tage in starting and possibly fin
ishing the series at the Polo
Grounds. where the first two and
last two games are scheduled.
And they will be able to use the
less lively National league ball in
those home games, which may aid
their pitchers. They will need
these and any other possible adj
vanta%es to take more than two
games from Joe Cronin's steam
roller.

May | speak t. Joan, plcase?"
About the twelfth time he asked
that a voice said pleasantly. Just
a moment"
A mans voice answered. Some
one thought he wanted to speak
to Joe" Bob's spirits slumped
again.
At the end Of q weary round OF
phone calls, confidence was lcav-
ing him. Illogically, he was angry
with Barbara Courtney. If Barbara
hadn't stopped him, he would
have reached Joan before she
stepped in the elevator. II she had
not stopped him, he would be
with Joan now-driving maybe,
or watching a picture show. or
perhaps they'd be in the living
room of her home with an open
fire and the lights turned low.
His blueprints were in a case.
The small trunk filled with his
favorite books-books which had
supplied all his need for entertain
ment during six months in the
Azores-was waiting TO be I'M
packed. But he began undressing
He was tired. The night was fiat.
He would find Joan if he had
to employ every detective in Mem
phis to do it.
I'm getting off my head" he
thought. I'm going to bed and
sleep off this sentimental spree"
But the romantic hangover vas
just as bad.
TOAN was having her blue mo-
j ments too. She was Furnishing
herself with the thought that she
would never see him again. If she
had only waited moment longer
he would probably have Joined
them. But she had looked back
and a girl was talking with him.
So she had rushed away with Pat
as though she wanted to get away
from him. What was the matter
with girls that they acted like
that?
I'll never see him again. she
thought. Opportunities don't
keep coming to people"
The mood persisted and Joan
in such a mood was as nice to
have about as an ice pack on a
cold, damp day, according 10 Pat.
1t was three days later. Pat mad
received a SIS a month raise and
her elation was somewhat damp
