Zebra Swallowtail.
Iphiclides ajax.

THE swallowtails are dressed In
such unusual colors that it is
not difficult to distinguish one
L from the other. The zebra is
so very different that you have
no trouble whatever in remembering
her. The striking color combination
Of green and black stripes. with the
very long coat tails, beautifully
marked wings, with crescents Of blue
and red, are enough for any nature
lover to start his Investigations toward
learning the life story.
There are three distinct forms of
this species. 1t is one Of the most
thrilling stories in butterfly history.
The first Spring form is known as
the Marcellus. 1t is small in size. The
tails are short and show white only
on the tips. Then comes the second
group, or late Spring form. These
are known as the Telamonides, and
are somewhat longer, having more
white on the outer half At last comes
the third form, which is this one. and
is known as Ajax. 1t is the largest
member The tails are very long and
lllc IIdI hiIls - tAquIolIC
Do not be fooled into thinking it
is easy to understand these forms as
seasonal variations and three broods
that succeed each other in proper
order. No, indeed. Nothing so simple
First we start with the overwinter-
ing chrysalids. The cocoons look
alike About April out of some of
these cocoons will step the Marcellus
butterflies, the first form. In May
you will see the Telamonides. the sec
ond form working their way slowly
and weakly out of their close quar-
ters. Now We have the two forms
from the same appearing cocoons.
After the Marcellus has had short
time flying about in the balmy air,
met her mate, and sought the leaves
of the pawpaw trees or bushes on
which to lay her eggs, she passes on.
Her work is finished. Her babies soon
hatch into hungry little caterpillars
that feast upon the leaves, grow fast.
and in about a month they have
woven cocoon and stepped out as
the Summer form. the Ajax.
Then you look about and see the
late Spring member, the Telamopides,
lowering over a pawpaw bush laying
eggs. From these eggs step forth the
caterpillars that. when one month
old, mature into Ajax butterflies.
From both early and late Spring forms
We get the Ajax.
Now it is the turn Of the Ajax to
lay her eggs Her offspring resemble
her. Though she may have success
sive broods, and her own daughters
lay eggs, they will be the Ajax form.

The Old Gardener Says:

Herbs have come into great ia
vor and are easily grown from
seeds sown in the open ground as
soon as danger Of frost has
passed. A light, porous soil gives
best results, and it should be we'll
pulverized, because most Of the
seeds are small. The seeds should
merely be pressed into the ground
and a little soil sifted over them.
1t is not necessary to apply wa
ter unless the season is abnor-
mally dry. When the seedlings
appear it may be necessary to
thin them a little. so that they
will not crowd, and a mild ap-
plication of sheep manure viii
help to make them grow faster.

Puts Larry on Spot.

@NLY once In four seasons with
the Oakland club of the Pacific
Coast League did Larry hit 800
or better. That was in 1928, his last
year in the minors, when he batted
.3oe. In his first season with the
Yanks he batted .289 for 1T games.
Then in 1880 he socked for .280 and
in 1882 his mark dropped to 1872.
His average dropped even lower in
1898, when, playing only 50 games, he
hit only for .220. During the Winter
of 1933-34 he was sold by the Yanks
to Boston for reported price OF S3o,-
900 and a rookie inflelder, Fred
Muller. The change Of scenery and
the regular shortstopping job he in
herited at Boston did not help Larry
much, though. His failing pace for
1884 was only PAL and, despite the
fact that Cronin was floundering in
his worst slump in flve years, Joe,
nevertheless, beat Larry in the business
of knocking in runs by almost two to
one, Cronin batted in 101 tallies in
l26 games as against 81 for Larry IN
l29 games.
Last season, however, was Lyn's best.
defensively. He flelded for the smart
average of 1854 as against only .949
for Cronin, but Larry doesn't cover the
ground the spirited Joseph covers.
That this is more than opinion may
be realized to some extent when 1t
is considered that Cronin had s6
more assists and participated in Is
more double plays. Notwithstanding
that, he made IA more errors than
Larry, who topped his previous best

COMPARISON showing their all

~ time fielding records, however,
proves that Cronin is far the bet
ter fielder. For his seven seasons as
q National Joe boasted a pace Of .951
to Lary's .949 in six years with the
Yankees and Red Sox. Cronins .949
last season was no criterion of his true
ability on defense; he slumped af1eld
as well as at bat as he vainly at
tempted to pull his injury-riddled club
together. In 1880 and 1888, for in
stance, he fielded $50.
A faint, If not wholly fair, idea Of
their ground-covering abilities may be
obtained by glance at their complete
major league records. Cronfn's seven-
year record with Washington shows
1915 putouts, 3,l00 assists. $50 errors.
593 double plays and a percentage Of
.951. Larys six-year record as
shortstop with New York and Boston
shows 991 putouts, 1,497 assists, l33
errors, 260 double plays and an aver
age of .949. In all fairness to Larry,
however, he has not played nearly SO
many games as Cronin. The latter
has been in s3s big league games;
Larry in ga.
Grifith let a great shortstop and
great manager go for an amoust of
money almost unbelievable. He. can
pay many salaries and buy plenty of
bats and balls with the dough Yawkey
handed across for Cronin. From that
standpoint the deal was okay.
How much the fans will see Of that
reported $3.50, 900, however. is prob
lematical. The deal deprived them Of
their favorite performer. the one Ma
tional oozing with color. They may
howl at Grifith and Larry. but just
how Justify will be up to Lazy If he
really is to play shortstop for the

tanned its undefeated record at the

istered five touchdowns, three Of them
by Alhanese, for a 33-to-0 triumph.
Albanese opened his touchdown
sortie with 3-yard drive of tackle
to climax 37-yard march in the
opening period. Nick Di Nunzio added
a second Syracuse touchdown on a
27-yard. jaunt early in the second
session, but Albanese bettered that
performance with q 54-yard scoring
dash later in the same quarter.
Lou Stark contributed a 29-yard
sprint for still another touchdown in

pleted his afternoons work with a T.
yard end sweep in the final period to
end a 60-yard advance. Joe vavra
kicked three of the five extra points
by placements.
Browns lone threat came in the
second session when aerials paved the
way for drive that went TO Syracuse's

Brilliant running by Albanese, Stark

ground attack. The Orange also ex-

Griffith Lauds Larry.

OF COURSE, making washington
fandom forget Cronin is too
much to be expected from any
present American League shortstop.
That is why Yawkey forked over the
fattest wad of cash in base ball his
tory, as well as Larry; sum of money
reliably reported to be $3.50, 900. But
on folm there are several shortstops
who appear better qualified for the
attempt than Larry. In Grifhth, how
ever, Lyn appears to have a champion.
''I didn't just snap up the cash offer
and look upon Larry as something
thrown in the deal as an after
thought" declares Griflth. II looked
I'D his record and he's better ball
player than he's generally rated.
THE figures on Larry are better
than they look at first glance, too. In
1881, for instance, he batted only
$50, but knocked in lot runs, and
that's a seasons work for any ball
player. He's a fine young prospect
who might find himself here in Wash
ington and become q really good
shortstop."
Grifith's optimism Is refreshing. for,
with the exception Of that single year.

liant feats, regardless of how closely
