ories-he will be so in few months
Steve is still booting winners
home, and booting them home with
all the skill he showed quarter
of a century ago.
You wouldn't take him for man
of SO. True, his hair is shot with
grey, and his face is deeply lined,
but he still has all the youthful
confidence and personality that
made him the most popular and
widely known jockey of the century.
Winner of six derbys, he might
be excused if he hung up his tack
and accepted Sir Victor SaSsoon's
offer to train a string of thorough

than three weeks after their dis

ward the top again. Today Los An

enth, when his team had a safe
lead. The Angels collected ID hits.
Oakland won the first game of
the double bill with Hollywood by
a 80 score in ID innings. Sullivan

winners went the entire distance.
1t was Hollywood's fourth successive
loss to the Oaks. The Stars snap
ped their losing streak in the wind
up by winning 1873. A five-run
rally in the second and a six-run
squirt in the fourth made Camp
bells task as HollyWood'S pitcher an
easy one.
Leroy Hermann turned in an
other win for the Seals by defeat
ing Seattle. 4-3. The winning run
crossed in the ninth when Phil Ra-
donits, Seattle pitcher, hit Jim
Zinn, pinch-hitter. with a pitched

BALBOA BEER :.
HELPS LADIES
REMAIN THIN

Wonders never cease. Old the
ories are exploded again. Instead
of making people fat, beer has
been discovered as the ally of mi
lady who prides herself on her
slender figure.
"Calories are necessary to pro-
duce fatty tissues" says Wayne
McCallister, vice president, Balboa
Brewing company 1--WE have per-
fected beer that is vitality low in
caloric content, and a series of
tests have disclosed that it can be
partaken of without adding weight.
"As matter of fact four glasses
of Balboa Beer contains less cal
orieS than cup of coffee with
the trimmings of plate of salad
with salad dressing, which the
average person thinks are not fat
tening.
Besides, Balboa Beer contains
the essentials of quick food energy
to restore bodily activities. 1t in
creases the basal metabolism
which results in an increased
sense of well-being, clearer think
ing and better natures"

Ten Thousand club by Mrs. r. j.
Cleyenger. The meeting was held at
the home of Mrs. J. B. McNeece, 667
Wensley avenue.
AS the name indicates, the book
is the story of Flush" the pet dog
of Elizabeth Barrett Browning,
which played such an important
part in The BarrettS of Wimpole
Street" However. the novel is not
Just another dog story but is fur
ther extension of the so-called
stream Of consciousness style of
writing, Flush's adventures being
told from the standpoint of dogs
consciousness, rather than that Of
a human being. Sensations of taste,
smell, temperature and movement
are wildly portrayed in this book
which is considered by critics to be
one of the best written of the year.
Mrs. Cleyenger gave an excellent
review which was greatly enjoyed.
