Johnny Stone came through
like a champion in the second
game with the Indians. H S
throw on Earl Averill in the fifth
inning, and his catch on the
same player in the seventh in
ming were game savers. In fact,
if Stone had failed to make those
plays, and a less skillful player
could easily have failed, there's
no telling what might have hap
pened.
In the fifth with Berger and
Pearson on bases, Averill slashed
to right. Stone fielded the ball
quickly and when Averill gam
bled with the best outfield arm
on the Washington club. Stone
shot him down to Bluege.
Swerving Sinker
In the seventh inning with
two on bases and two out Averill
hit a swerving sinker to right
field. It was a tough shot and
a cleanup blow in the making.
But Stone fielded it in fine style
and the inning was over.
OF course, it all worked for
the good of Washington, but the
bench whisperers on the Cleve-
land team-if any still remain

check on their base running.
Berger had better stay awake
between 3:15 and the end of the
game and do a little running
when running will score runs.

Whether Poker or War

To the Editor rl The Times:
Your editorial entitled keeping
Out Of War" is a powerful piece
expressing the latent opinion OF
practically 100 per cent of the

small number Of people.
A keen-visioned veteran Of the
last war once said to me: Take
the prospect of any gain out of
war and there will be no more
conflict" This fact is obvious,
and in consequence, brings forth
the power of your suggestion that

added incentive to the natural

are he would be ready to play

ehearts are torn by the loss Of
their dear ones?
It is recorded in the holy Bible
that God was not in the mighty
destructive wind or other harm
full elements, but rather that he
manifested Himself in q still small
voice, speaking words Of comfort,
assurance, hope and courage to
the harraSsed souls Of men.
Wars, famineS, floods, pesti-
lenceS, plagueS-and all other
evils related thereto-are not of
God, if we acknowledge Him to
be the all wise and beneficent
father-and we surely do. Rather
are these unnatural conditions be-
lieved to be largely the result of
mass thinking along destructive
lines.
When men universally change
their thought processes to the ex-
tent of preferring life to death,
peace to war, health to sickness,
abundance to lack, love to hatred
and virtue to sin, then it will be
discovered, no doubt, that the so
called "actS Of God" with their
trails of death and ruin are be-
coming surprisingly Gew and far
