trace of levity on his face.
The girl" he said, lis the daughter of a
retired capitalist - if there is such an animal
left She's engaged to this guy, Kenneth
Martin, who is old enough to know better,
but she's in love with young Frank Anslee
High school stuff.
Martin takes her to houseparty up
country. They drive up in Martins car.
Young Anslee is there, too. It's one of those
jamborees. Everybody is more or less lit, and
the Anslee boy keeps cutting in on Martin
and the girl. Well, it ends up in fight, and
young Anslee slaps Martin one on the jaw
The host kicks Anslee out, and Martin and the
girl leave shortly afterwards
You're making sixty-hve," interjected,
and there's curve ahead"
He smiled and slowed down little
Reflex movement of cop on hot scent"
he grinned. We'll, Martin and the girl drive
home by the way of Ficldston. At the inter-
section with the Brookton road, where the
pike winds around Mier's pond, Martin loses
bank, sideswipes an oak tree and does a
Brodie into the pond, The girl is thrown clear,
but is stunned and passes out of the picture
When she comes to- there is another car
parked on the bank. In the glare of the head
lights, she sees young Frank Anslee, her boy
friend, working over Martin, who is dead as
herring, young Anslee having pulled him from
the pond" Melee took deep pull on his
cigarette. That's her story.
We'll, couple of motorcycle cops come
along. They take Martin to the hospital,
where he is pronounced dead officially They
quiz the boy and the girl at headquarters.
Young Anslee admits that he left the party
before Martin and the girl did, and that the

young Ansee, so they decide to hold the boy
and the girl for further questioning. There are
no marks on Martins body except few
bumps and scratches such as man may get

young Anslee took advantage OF the accident?"
Yeah He gives the cops song and dance
about having seen some couple in boat on
the lake at the time of the accident A man
with black beard and girl. Says for us to
find them, and they will back him up how the
accident happened"
Sounds phony," agreed. They'd hardly
have run away without offering to help"
Not unless they were afraid to be seen
there. said Melee.
Il get you. A couple that was married -
but not to each other?"
Melee held the dashboard lighter to fresh
cigarette.
You newspapermen are always looking for
the woman in the case" he said
What's the excuse for holding the girl?"
| asked. Il don't see what you got on her."
Il was coming to that. The cops found the
tire tracks of young Anslee's car on the soft
shoulders of the road at the intersection where
the Brookton road meets the pike Also a
couple OF cigarette butts of the brand Anslee
smokes. Looks like he was parked there wait
ing for Martin and the girl to come along.
They figure that she and Anslee had agreed
that he should be there. The front bumper
of his car was knocked sideways and his left
fender was buckled. He claimed it had hap
pened couple of days before, but the cops
checked up on that and found that he was
lying. The tracks in the shoulders of the road
show that he was parked in such way that a
car making the turn into the Brookton road
could hardly have missed hitting him."
Melee inhaled deeply, then tossed the
cigarette over.

Bv FRANK "BUCK" o'NEILL

There is not a better manager
than Hornsby in organized base
ball, and mighty few who can
carry his portfolio.
The strange antics of our ball
club amuse many of the country
folk. In the fifth inning White
hill caught pop fly off the bat
of Tauby which Bolton lost in the
clear sky. Then Kress tossed
away his glove on the second out
Not a bit of sense to it.
Buddy Looks Sour.
Of all the men in the world to
go off form in clutch, Buddy
Myer is the last you expect. But
Buddy looked pretty sour on Sim
mons hit in the tenth.
Kress made the outstanding
play of the game among the in
fielderS when he crossed second
to gobble up Appling's drive and
throw him out at first by foot.
But the play of the game was
turned in by Jocko Conlon, who
dove along the ground to take a
sure fire double away from Kress,
This was strictly a do or don't
effort, and Conlon most certainly
did.

Perkins Back
AtHoward

Paul Perkins, last seasons SEN
sational punter and triple-threat
man, returned to camp yesterday
and gave Coach Charles West new
hope for the Howard University
Bisons, who are working out daily
in the stadium for the coming grid
iron campaign.
Perking, a sophomore, who halls
from Washington, Pa, was found
ineligible by the c. I. A. A. last
year.
Perkins had attended Washing
to.- and jefferson College during
the tearms of 1882. 1888 and the
spring of 1884 and because of
poor scholarship had been dropped
during the final term but the
registrar at Howard did not Gis-
cover this error until after the
football campaign closed last year.
AS a result of scholastic stand
ing of Perkins at w. and j. the
conference ruled him ineligible
and Howard victories over st. Paul
and Hampton and ties with Vir-
ginia State and Morgan were
forfeited. The forfeit also gave
Morgan College the C. I. A. A.
crown.
Perkins was the mainstay of the
Bisons last season and now return
ing in good standing, Coach
Charles West plans to build up a
winning machine around this
punting back. Armstrong and
Barry Williams, two veterans, will
form the trio of backfield artists.

Griffith Picks
Cubs 10 Win

President Clark C. Griffith
picks the Cubs to win the Ma.
tional League pennant on the
basis that a "hot club" like the
blazing Cubs just won't be
stopped. Griff pointed out that
over a span of years the club
that started its drive as the
Bruins started theirs just won't
be licked.
"On July 8 the Cubs we're
919 games behind the Giants
who were leading the league"
Griff said. "They had an IL.
game deficit on the lost side
Of the column. Now they're
eight games ahead on the won
side and one game fewer lost
than the Giants. They made
up their losses on the Cards
and are driving through to win
the pennant-Or to make a

TURNING ON HEAT
"The Cubs have played 1926
ball since July 10, winning So
games and losing 20. That's
turning on the heat all right.
Maybe the Cubs will crack when
they meet the Cards in that
final series. But the chances
are against it,"
The Griffs and White Sox clash
today in a doubleheader at the
Stadium. They've moved up Thurs
day game. After the Sox bow out
for the year the Athletics come
to town, and there will be more
doubleheaders that will afford
amusement for the crowd.
Blows Tough One
Earl Whitehill blew a tough one
yesterday when Dykes doubled
down the left field foul line. The
ball rolled along the line nicked
the bag. 1t was tough for White
hill, but the ball was fair; abso-
lutely fair.
Whitehill seems to have a mo-
nopoly on 14-inning games. He lost
a tough one in Detroit, and he
lost a tough one yesterday. He has
figured in two with the Athletics
and a couple with the Red Sox.
But one of these days he will win
by large, rich score. He wonders

In Jack Dempseys restaurant
the other evening, conversation
got around to the worst horse that
ever beat a good one. 'Tis a topic
that could be argued at length, pro
and con lot of bad horses and as
many good ones.
Most good horses never were
beaten by really bad ones. But
others were not so fortunate, DIS
witness: Dick Welles, one of the
fleeteSt of racers and holder for
a while of the mile record, was
beaten by Tom Cogan, rather
ordinary fellow, but Dick was
young and the track exceptionally
heavy.
The great McChesney, a cham
pion of his era, was beaten by Gil
fain, 2-year-old who struggled in
vain to win another race of any
kind-and didn't succeed until he
was 5.
Hermis, one of the greatest of
thoroughbreds, had the unhappy
faculty of getting beat by lowly
horses. Florham Queen took him
into camp one day, and nearly
ruined the cinch players who un-
belted on Hermis. But worship
ers of this fleet handicap racer
always contended stoutly that his
ignominious defeats were caused
by the butting in on his training
of owner E. A. Thomas. They
maintained that Thomas often

GLEN MCCARTHY
AT THE RACES

|overruled trainer Will Shields and
insisted upon Hermis facing the
starter when he should have re-
manned in the barn because of
lack of condition.
Chance Shot, a crack about 10
years ago and now string such
prize winners as Peace Chance
and Chance Sun. could turn in
pediculous performances at times,
notably the day at Saratoga when
he was beaten by Herodian, a
horse of modest pretenSions to
class.
Blue Larkspur was another to
lose out to horses supposedly far
below him in quality. Grey Coat
took him in the Dwyer Stakes
and African came within an inch
of mailing him in the Belmont.
But the group in Dempsey'S
swung to the opinion that the
worst horse ever to beat a good
one was Jim Dandy. That fellow,
at 100 to /, literally walked away
from Gallant Fox in the 1880
Travers. Neither Trainer Fitz'
simmons nor Owner Woodward
ever has offered an alibi for their
pets defeat. They didn't need
to. The Saratoga track, that
Travers day, could not be cata-
logued among muddy tracks. 1t
defied description and it hap
pened to suit Jim Dandy as if
made to order for him; the same
sort of track a year earlier en-
abled him to beat some of the
best juveniles of the year-and
at so to l. On fast track,
even a sloppy, muddy or slow
one, Jim Dandy seldom could run
fast enough to finish in the first
eight. But over the track he had
for the TraverS. well, Jim was apt
to beat any horse sent against
him, simply because scarcely any
other horse in existence could
run even close to his best form
in such track.

John McGraw's "Folly" lies
dead in a Toronto mortuary to-
day, slain after an aerial battle
that rivals that fiction of a
Verne, Poe or a Victor Hugo.
Leonard Koenecke, whose last
uniform was that of the Brooklyn
Dodgers, was a member of the
Indianapolis Club when McGraw
left the Giants and went off to
scout a pitcher.
Coming to the Hoosier stadium,
McGraw. entered quietly and took
a seat in the back of the stands.
The pitcher was all right as
American Association pitchers
went, but out in the pastures
ambled a long, lanky youth with
bat that sprayed the terrain
with hits, pair of winged feet
and shot gun arm.
"Who's that Outfielder?" Nc
Graw asked.
"He's a kid named KOenecke,"
answered fan.
McGraw forgot all about the
pitcher and after the game bought
Koenecke for $4,000. Well. sir,
Koenecke reported at Los Angeles
for spring training and created a
sensation. 1t didn't seem possible
that anyone could be so terrible.
McGraW shook his head, wondered
little and swore a lot, for that
was the way of the old Orioles.
Koenecke's failure was one Of
the causes for McGraw's forced
resignation as manager of the
Giants. Charley Stoneham turned
green when he thought of paying
all that money for raw flop.
Terry Fires Him
Terry succeeded McGraw and
about the first thing he did was
fire Koenecke, who went to Brook
lyn. Over there Koenecke was
the ball player McGraw bought
He set a record for center field
ers, he hit like wild, and Brook
lyn reaped the benefits OF Nc
Graw's vision. But Koenecke
lacked the stability to last under
big league pressure. and his
method of meeting death was as
fantastic as some of his other
madcap pranks in the past.
Rogers Hornby is signed for
three years to manage the st.
Louis Browns. 1t is said that his
contract calls for $4,000 per an
mum, but while Hornsby naturally
was interested in the financial
phases of his agreement, he was
more insistent on certain other
considerations.
According to well-advised base
ball men, Hornsby becomes mana.
ger and czar of the Browns. He
has the authority to make trades
without interference from the
front office. He has authority to
do about anything else that he
wants to do for the benefit of the
club.
Under the remarkable direction
Of Hornsby this year the Browns
have made money by the sale of
ball players, and their recent
drive, in which they mauled the
Yankees and all comers, has
caught the imagination Of St
Louis and the entire American
League. That, means money at
the gate.
You can write this down and
paste it right in your bonnet:
