It was Diana Vineyards success
in school days and small amateur
performances which turned her
ambition toward the theater.
After completing her education,
Miss Wynyard studied theatrical
technique with a private tutor,
and made her first stage appear
ance as one of the guests in a
cabaret scene in "The Grand
Duchess" in her native London.
Following this she gained valu-
able experience when she toured
England with a travelling stock
company, playing 40 different
roles during the engagement, and
later assimilated further varied
training as a member of the
Liverpool Repertory Company.
Following engagements in sew,
eral legitimate productions in
London theaters, Miss Wynyard
came to America to play the lead.

We frequently find people in whom q
hemorrhage into this region of the
brain has destroyed both their ability
to form words and their ability n

Manager Archer Boyd and his Hen

tomorrow afternoon at $50 o'clock to
the Golden Belt nine of Durham, sub
stituting that team on their schedule
in thep lace of Macon, the first cam
announced for the Sabbath game
The Independents have quite fol-
lowing among the baseball lO"ers of
the city and each Sunday their crowd
grows larger and larger.
Their foe tomorrow is by nc means
a set-up for it is rated as one of the
strongest teams in this section. They
were barely nosed out in an early sea
son game with a team that had very
little trouble in defeating the locals
here sometime ago.
According to the pre-game dope
passed out by the Skipper of the
local outfit, Don Peasants former
Zeb Vance high school hurting star,
will handle the pitching duties for the
locals. The veterans catcher, J. T.
Hamm, will be on the receiving end of
his throws.
Otto Pahlman, former minor league
star, mas recently joined the locals and
will play his first Sunday game with
them tomorrow at first base. Pahlman
is one of the best fielding first base
men seen here for sometime. He was
a mainstay on the Henderson Game
cocks in the Piedmont League. AS a
hitter, he ranks up among those who
boast of a fat average. In the game
herew ith Oxford during the past week
he got two safeties out of four trips,
clearly showing that he has his eye on
the apple.
Good Crowd Expected
A good crowd is expected to turn
out to witness the contest since the
team is displaying a fine brand of
baseball. The closing of the stores on
the following of the club, ana many
Wednesday afternoons has increased
more fans are interested IN the team
than heretofore.
AS was the case last Sunday, score
cards will be sold to all attending the
game and each spectator is expected to
purchase one upon entering the gate
BY the sale of these cards, the team
hopes to defray part of the expenses

Lambasting the offerings of Wood

bounded off the bottom rung of the
City League yesterday afternoon by
exchanging places with the M E.
Baracas, sending them to the cellar by
defeating them 13 to A. shellacking
Woodlief for IA hits, coupling them
with six errors for their tallies.
The little Legion, the team that was
thought to be the weakest in the
leag1ie, seems to have found itself
against the strong M. e. nine and
fought their way to a decisive victory.
Woodlief's support was bad, but it
did not account for all of the runs
garnered by the Legion. In the initial
inning, Stone, first man up, doubled.
Robinson followed him with triple,
E. Coghill singled, Williams singled,
giving the Legion three run lead.
The losers matched these runs in their
half of the inning when Rudd Edwards
was given life by an error after S.
Coghill had gone out at first unas-
sisted. Hickman Finch was safe on
an error at, short, putting two men on

did not get another tally until the
seventh when S. Coghill was safe on

Edwards, Finch and L. Coghill, giving
them their final tally.
Legion's Big Inning
In the second frame, the winners
pushed over two more runs on hit,
walk, fielders choice and an error at
short They got another in the
fourth when E. Coghill was safe on
an error at third base, scoring a mo-
ment later on Williams single. The
fifth inning was big one for the
Legion, five runs being pushed over.
Thomas walked, H. Coghill was safe
on an error, w. Finch flew out to the
catcher; Blake was given life when
the pitcher errored his ball. Stone
drove in two tallies with his base hit,
Robinson flew out to second base but
E. Coghill cleaned the hassocks with
a triple. He scored a moment later
on Williams third single of the day.
Pully flew out to the pitcher to end
the inning. One more tally came in
the seventh inning after two were
out E. Coghill hit safely and went to
second. Williams drove him in with

been broken by the guns Of enemy

Stephen Scripps and Giles Armiger
had come from France together.
There had been things overseas
which had drawn them close. Their
asset was now a friendship which
touched the skies, their liabilities
that they had the strength of only
one man between them. Giles always
spoke of his own perfect physical
condition with a note of apology. "I
seemed to bear a charmed life,
Scripps. 1t wasn't fair when the rest
of you had to suffer-"
Yet Giles had fought through four
years of it. and he had come back
with the marks of it on his SOUL
Never again would there be the radi-
ance, the youth, the gayety. Never

"How's the baby ?"

"Dilly doesn't mind rain any more

ing the shield over the heart.
Another theory for the dominance
Of the fight side Is the almost uni
versally deficient vision of the right
eye. In other words, most of us are
left-eyed. 1t is possible, then. that
these children with word blindness
have been naturally right-eyed and
left-handed, and have been taught to
reverse their natural nervous bath
ways. f ~
At any rate, we find some peculiar
things about them For instance,
that they are able to do mirror writ:
ing or read sentences written in mir
ror fashion. Some of them read
from right to left in attempting to
spell out a word. They almost all
confuse the palidronic words. WAS
and SAW, NOT and TON, and re-.
verse paired letters so that they read
from right to left instead Of left to
right. They confuse lower case ''p''
and o.. and '''b'' and "d''. ~f
A great deal of success in what
seemed hopeless cases has been made
in training children on this basis. BY
allowing them to resume their left
handedness and right -eyedriess. III
lowing them to read at first mirror
sentences. ETC., they are often
brought back to normal scholastic
standing. When this happens there
is also a great gain in their general
psychology. because they lose their
inferiority complexes.
