was no sound in the little
kitchen but the clatter of dishes,
the kissing of water as Edna
turned on the faucets, the tap

Sharlie?" Her dark blue eyes
swept up to Sharlie's and she
turned around from the dish

I've been in love with him for
years."
Eyes, I do know it," Sharlie
answered. She always had
known it, no matter how much
she had tried to tell herself
anything else. She never had
gone anywhere with Mr.. Col

If the fear of patients being

probability is that psychoses

which might have been helped

nothing can be done to cheek

After all, it's no disgrace to
develop a psychosis, any more

pneumonia. Surely the mind,

Famous Authority on Problems Of
Love and Marriage

Dad Doesn't Like Company
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am II and have a very
unhappy home life. My father
is always finding fault with
whatever my mother or I do.
If I go out a couple of times
in the week he makes a fuss,
and if l have girls and boys at
our house he still finds fault.
He says he can't listen to the
radio. and he goes to bed about
8 o'clock; but when nobody
comes to the house he stays up
until II o'clock. He is al
ways tired when I have COM
pany, but never is when I
haven't. MY mother says I
ought to have a little fun. but
he won't listen to reason.
What can I do in order to
keep peace in the house be-
tween mother and dad?
A DAUGHTER.
Why not try 10 make a
bargain with the dad? Ask him
if you can't have your friends
in one evening in the week,
Friday or Saturday. Tell him
that you do not want to do
anything underhanded, but
you'd like to enjoy your friends
the same as your schoolmates
enjoy theirs.
AS I've said before in this
column, and expect to say
many times more, parents
shouldn't be unreasonable. They
should let their children re-
ceive their friends at home in
stead of on the street corner.

AIS a Warbler

AL can warble with a lot Of
professional singers. Too, he
handles himself we'll on the
stage in dialogue and mono
logue and knows what to do
with his hands-and feet when
up under before the spotlight.
Waite Hoyt, who has taken a
fling at the stage twixt his base
ball seasons, was only fair and
he wouldn't have drawn a dime
outside of New York or possibly
Bridgeport.
Mickey Cochrane could play a
saxophone for parlor purposes
only, and the demand for his
stage appearance was but tenn
porary.
AL Schacht, Washington's in
comparable third-base coach,
and mean every word of it, is
a great story teller, as good as
many professionals at that
trick. With Nick Altrock and
Joe Engel, Schacht enjoyed sew
eral winters of theatrical popu-
1arity.
Nick Altrock is the most natu-
raj comedian of the two and
also tells his stories well, put
ting atmosphere and color into
his appearances. I saw him
"knock 'em cold" at a benefit
for the National Theater en-
ployes a winter or two ago.
Nick had stage presence, was
perfectly at ease and in his big,
homely, natural way held the
audience in the palm of his
hands

Always oblige

On the ball field, we need say
nothing of Nick's and AIS sue
cess as comedians, but a lot of
people don't know they can do
1t just as we'll before an audi
ence of stuffed shirts.
In small gatherings of players
and writer's and sportsmen,
around the round table" and
in impromptu appearances,
Nick and AL are always in de-
mand and are ever willing to
oblige.
There is plenty of personal
jealousy between them on the
basis of their histrionic score.
This feeling is so acute, in fact,
that the boys haven't spoken a
civil word to each other in
about three years.
This started about two win
ters ago when they found
themselves in Los Angeles in De
cember or January, after a
transforming baseball trip that
had commenced right after
the world series.

tract to do a short" Schacht

Leaguers are only trying to use
it as another argument to scare
us into thinking we'll be up
against a most serious handicap
in the games.
AS to hitting the ball, all we'll
have to do is meet it and it'll be
given a ride. In reality, that's
all that's necessary in batting
any ball, whether it's one from
the American League or National
League.
4 Dozen Dead Balls
The other day Cronin called a
practice session in Washington.
He had three or four dozen Ma
tional League balls thrown on the
field and each pitcher who worked
the batting practice threw these
balls to every one of us who stood
up there at the plate as test.
What happened? Well, we
knocked that ball so very hard
that many had an idea that the
American League ball was being
used. Cronin put three of 'em
into the left-field bleachers. Fred
Schultz dropped couple near the
center field flagpole, Buddy Myer
hit the right-field fence several
times, while fellows like Joe Ku-
hel, Goose Goslin, Dave Harris
and Heine Manush rifled all the
fences with long-distance clouts.
I might even say I hit a couple of
good ones" myself.

So, as far as hitting is con-
cerned, I don't think We'll have
any trouble with that National

CLARK GRIFFITH
PEPST TEAM Up

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Baseball
experts here with the Washington
team say that the Senators are
not worried about the Giant pitch
ers despite the hue and cry
around the country about their
superiority.
Old Clark Griffith has had a
talk with his men and he says he
never saw a pitcher that went to
the mound that could not be hit
and Hubbell is not going to prove
an exception. The Senators are
not conceding the first game to
the Giants nor are they predict
ing a sweep. They recognize that
the Giants staff is formidable,
but then they have four good
pitchers themselves.
Some of the old-time Washing
ton players recalled the state of
mind of the champion team of
1925. That was the team that
had three victories to one for the
Pirates and then lost because it
was e e m e d advisable not to
trust one of the games to the
southpaws of the Washington
staff, Zachary and Ruether.
In the previous year the Wash
ington tie a m, under Manager
Bucky Harris, had come through
to win the world series from the
Giants and the following year was
conceded to have a better chance
than Pittsburgh, but Harris de-
pended on his right-handerS, Co
veleskie and walter Johnson.
They got away well, but when it
came time to go against the
heavy hitting right-handed batters
of the Pirates in the fifth battle
Harris named Coveleski to try his
luck with only two days rest.
Covey lost and then came an
other spot for the Washington
left-handers, but Harris picked
Alex Ferguson to the surprise of
the baseball world. OF course he
lost and then the issue was put
up to the veteran Walter John
son whose steam was gone, but
who had a head and a heart, a
fine combination. but not enough
to check the victory-mad Pirates.
That selection aroused the late
Ban johnson to remark after the
game that Harris was swayed
more by sentiment when he put
johnson in that seventh game,
but Harris showed that Walter
johnson never had failed the
club and was the only man he
felt competent to stop the Pirates.
The Washington times., 1933-10-02

Schacht failed to pull his
punches in some scuffling the
boys were doing in railroad
depot, landing on Altrock with
a valise that was packed rather
solidly.
Nick has never forgotten it.
Schacht has altogether an
other impression of the basis
for the estrangement, his latest
one being that the German
Jewish complex is at the base
Of the whole thing-despite the
fact the boys were at odds
years before the world heard
of the Nazis, etc.
Well, it's a pity.
Two great fellows, each with
many charming traits and char
acteristics, nd tn e ir best t
friends can't get them together,
in fact, won't try because they
know it's useless.
They can act, both of them,
and do, dressing in the same
room very often and not ex-
changing a syllable. Their ball
field acts don't require con-
VerSation.
The Washington times., 1933-10-02

it'll go just as we'll as if an Amer
lean League pill was being hit.
This brings me down to the
Giants. If anybody is going to
find it troublesome hitting and
fielding a certain ball, the Giants
are going to have their troubles.
Most important, their infielders
are going to find difficulty in
measuring the hops that'll come
to them while their outfielders
promise to experience almost the
same bother when our hits go
bounding out in their direction.
AS to hitting, they should not
find it so hard to hit the alleged
American League ball. But right
here is where our more clever
pitching will come in. 1t will be
up to our men to keep the Giants
from hitting the "old apple" too
much, and I think they will see to
this, particularly in a park as
large as Griffith Stadium.

There were 5000 spectators at
yesterdays finale Of the Amer

Griffs and Philadelphia AS, but

old lad from Clarksburg, West

John sat on the Washington

only recently recovered from an
extended illness and he was
taking the occasion to celebrate.
During his illness John wrote
letters of inspiration to the

Because of his interest, Cronin
and his "boys" decided to give
John a treat.
