first time she understood how
he had been able to give up
friends, his place in society, the
woman he loved, to follow the
path he preferred. That pitiless
face which he had shown her
for a moment would be re-
strained no more by considera-

Sideration for another.
Who Failed
Fool clerks that follow one

voice was calm, hardly showing
the annoyance which he stated.
Yet it had been more than an
noyance which had brought that
expression to his countenance.

There was a click as the

In the days when Sue Leonard

to her as a primer to a precoci-

face, but Sue was never in

 this afternoon and college finais tonight.
 The preliminaries, run off yes terday on n loose cinder path between intermittent showers, stamped Southern California as the fayorite for the collegiate cham pionship and East Tech, Cleveland, as the most formidable contender for the high school crown.
 |. Southern California, already vic- torious in the I. c. A. A. A. A. championship at Cambridge three weeks ago, led all other schools Tn qualifiers with ten in the eleven
 events in which trials were held.
 Louisiana State and Michigan placed seven each, and Indiana six. Stanford, which had been expect ed to vie with Southern California
 for the title, qualified only four and seemed hopelessly out of the championship competition. Some Team
 The Trojans placed a man in every event except the discus, ham, mer throw and broad jump, and qualified two men in the 100-yard dash and quarter-mile. Their. qual- ifiers were: Ablowich and Tomp- kins, quarter-mile; Parsons, 100 and 220-yard dashes; Webster, half mile; Harper, shot nut; William son, javelin; ball, 100-yard dash: Paul, low hurdles, and Welsh, high hurdles. ,E

 Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette ne- gro, won his two sprint trials breeding in 9.9 for the 100 and 21.9 for the 220, and promises to score a double victory tonight.

 New York, June 17-(UP)- After three years of bench-warm- ing, Sam Leslie. Brooklyn's brand new first baseman, suddenly bios. somed into one of the most talked- of players in the major leagues.
 "What is the secret of your sud- den success?" we asked Mir Leslie at his Riverside drive apartment last night.

 Leslie was unfortunate in being q substitute first baseman with tho New York Giants, who had one of the best in the big time, Bill Ter. ry. Consequently Sam saw little action until April 24, when a shot In the wrist bounched him off the bench and brought his name into the headlines at last.

 On that day Player-Manager Terry suffered Q shattered right wrist when struck by q pitched ball. He was out of the game for more than Q month, and Leslie substituted for him at first base with sensational success. Sam played brilliantly in the field and batted .S21.
 Other managers. who previously had refused Leslie in trades. now wanted him. So 1t came to pass that on Thursday the great bench- warmer was sent to Brooklyn in exchange for two famous players, Outfielder Frank o'Doul and Pitcher Bill Clark.
 Referring to this swap. we asked sambo whom he thought got the better of the trade.
 The pride of Moss Point, Miss. chuckled and replied, "Ah'd say Sam Leslie got tho best of that deal. Ah'il Do out there playin' every day now. Amt that some-

Lefty O'Doul, making his first appearance with the Giants as a pinch- h-hitter In the seventh, grounded weakly to Les lie.
 Meanwhile Chicago gained on the hird-place Pirates by crush- ing PIttsburg, Q to 1, after ham, mering Swift, Kremer, Harris and Hoyt, for IS safeties, including Frank Demaree's homer in the third with two aboard. Guy Bush held the Pirates to seven hits.

SIX HOLY CROSS
 GRADS MAKE GOOD IN MAJOR LEAGUES

Boston, June 17-Holy Cross col lege at Worcester is retaining its reputation as the country's lead- ing school for big league baseball players.
 Coach Jack Barry, who played with Stuffy McInnis, Home Run Baker and Eddie Collins on Con- nie Mack's famed "$100,000 in- field" has had enviable success in turning out players with profess sional finesse, and few big league scouts detour Mt. St. James during the college season.
 A recent checkup disclosed six former Holy Cross players on the roster of this years major league teams. They were:-- ,
 owen Carroll, one of Brooklyn's best pitchers.
 Rosy Ryan, also on the Dodgers mound staff.
 John (Blondy) Ryan. New york Giants shortstop.
 Joe Morrissey. Cincinnati Reds shortstop.
 Eddie Desautels, Detroit catcher. Bots Nlkola, Detroit pitcher. Barry himself played at Holy Cross before going to the Athletics and the Red Sox, and he and Jumping Joe Dugan, former As Red Sox and Yankee third base man, were the finest products of the Worcester baseball school.
 Some of the other Holy Cross men with big league service are Freddy Mcguire, former Giants , Cubs, and Boston Braves second baseman, now managing the New Bedford team of the New England league; Walter (Doc) Gautreau, former Braves infielder and late of the Montreal club; Arnold (Jig- ger) Statz, former Cubs outflelder. reported on hitting spree in the Pacific Coast league; Eddie Shev- lin, Warren (Pete) Cote, Jim Tun- ney and Hank Garrity.
