On Mrs. ROOSevelt's recent
campaign trip she did have one
blue frOck, not among her fall
purchases. It is the type of
frOck which packs easily and is
therefore ideal for a trip such as
the one made by the First Lady,
when she ''lived" in suitcases.

Proposed BY Correspondence

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Our correspondence began
through a mutual interest
music. We've never seen each
other, but have exchanged
snapshots. We've been writing
to each other for several years.
But one thing or another has
delayed our meeting.
He now suggests that we meet
in Washington, at a certain
hotel. Do you think it would
be the right thing for us to
stay under the same roof? My
mother does not favor that,
though she is willing 1 should
come to Washington, to meet
this man, who has a very good
position in the musical world.
Thank you. NATALIE.
Your mother is quite right
in suggesting that it would be
better if you stopped at diff
ferent hotels. In spite of our
much-vaunted freedom, it is
better to observe some Of the
old standards.
And then, you may not be as
attracted to this man per-
Sonally as you have been
through correspondence. And
it would be more difficult to
handle the situation if you
were under the same roof.
Meet and Drift Away
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Long ago, 1 had a little boy
sweetheart who shared my toys
and my childish secrets. FaJe
parted us, and years passed,
IL to be exact. During that
time we never saw one another.
BY chance one day we met
in Washington, and afterwards
we made dates almost every
day. 1t became serious. Several
times he proposed to me- and
finally 1 promised to tmarry
him in a year or two. We
planned many things for our
future.
Suddenly, he stopped coming
to see me, and one OF my
friends told me they had seen
him under the influence of
liquor. I wrote him a short
note trying to find out the
motive back of his drinking,
and begged him to give it up.
Not one word have I heard
from him.

DIZZY DEAN BACK

Suspension Cut to 7 Days
at Confab of Breadon,

BY the Associated Press.
- T. LOUIS, August 21.-The glory
that was Dizzy Dean, although
slightly faded, will shine again
~ from the Cardinal base ball
camp.
The dizzy one, ace pitcher of
the Cardinal staff, was restored to
good standing by Manager Frankie
Frisch, following a CLOSED" hearing
of the suspension case before the
gray-haired potentate of base ball,
Kenesaw Mountain Lands.
Lands decreed that the hearing
be closed, but the transom over the
hotel room door was open, free
outlet for the rapid crossfire of ques-
tioning, which often led to heated
arguments.
1t was the seventh day of Dizzy
suspension, which he drew from the
Cardinal management for failing to
attend an exhibition game in Detroit
last week and refusing to pay a
500 fine.

Pain at Nightfau.

BY tonight's Summer twilight, some
500 amateur golfers between the ages
of Is and so will be wondering what
happened to their backswings or how
so many puts could spin around the
tin without falling in.
For this is the day when the sur
vivors of more than 20 sectional quail
flying spots turn their faces toward
Brookline and the coming amateur
championship, with its mad scramble
at match play. Since only one out
of five starters can get by IN Goiay's
test, the amount of nerve strain and
pulse popping registered viii be one
of golf's largest crops.
Even the brilliant Johnny Goodman
is under hard fire with only three
places left In his sector against IL or
IA starters.
If any set Of writer's could assemble
all the melancholy reports that will
be offered in 20 locker rooms between
and z, the collection would make
around 500 volumes. And there would
be any number of rare human docu-
ments, built along the lines Of Rus
sian tragedy. You could almost hear
the wolves and the Siberian winds
bowling through the pines.

He was great when he had it.
Sports scriveners couldn't
write too much in praise of Joe
Cronin last year, when he was
steering the Nationals to an
American League championship.
But they're making the anvil
ring these days.
The swelling clang of steel against
steel sounds Cronins managerial knen
all over the country. He falls with
his ball club, and the brigadeS Of ex-
perts show Joe no mercy in Gheir
printed blasts.
Odd, this recent shift in sentiment
When the Nationals last made their
swing Of the circuit, there was more
to thrust upon Cronin's broad back
the blame for the backsliding of his
club. There was sympathy everywhere
for him. Slipping slabmen, the crack
up of important cogs in the clubs
mechanism were responsible for the
lamentable failure of last years win
ner. Cronin was making the best
of a bad job.
Now the critics are limiting
that Cronin perhaps is carrying

ness they allege he began in the
world series last Fall when his
Nationals were broken on the

I blossoms, the Yankees should not be
overlooked.
After receiving what seemed to be
a mortal thrust last Tuesday, when
the Tiger attack won double header,
in place of folding up over six games
behind, the Yankees rallied in coun-
ter charge that bagged five of their
next starts-which is fair enough just
after some one has nailed you with a
crowbar over the left temple.
The Tiger lead still is impressive,
but the war isn't over-which Mickey
Cochrane is smart enough to under
stand.
The odds against the Yankees still
are heavy, but october is q number

It's hard to say why Miss Babcock

as steady and accurate as the cham
pions. Her service is as good and her
volleying is better. She covers lot

gives her decided temperamental ad-
vantage over the field.
