coated dignitaries who had planned
to make his return a Roman triumph

only the white-toothed grins OF his
friends. the Redcaps. greeted him.
The welcome committee found him
as he was seated at his mothers
table. The word had gone round that
he had returned, and they were fill
ed with CONSERVATION.
HIS manager, John Roxborough,
explained things for Joe.
Joe doesn't want any sort Of cele-
bration." Roxborough said. Hes sat-
isfied Just &c get back home"
And that was that. The mayors
committee and negro organizations
called off all festivities. but the may
"a himself declined 70 let Joe off
without a handshake.
Il went take no for an answer
said HiZZoner. "and I'll call a police
man TO enforce the edict If neces-
say"
There the affair rests: Joe may
escape the celebration. but 70 keep
the peace he has promised TO shake
al least a score OF hands.
The brown bomber" spent his
first afternoon at home watching the
Detroit Tigers defeat the Cleveland
indians. 4 TO /. He let fall a remark
that he'd always been a Tiger fan
ard that II was his lifelong ambi-
ton 70 meet a big league player in
the flesh.
NO sooner said than Louis was es-
corted out upon the field and Hank
Greenberg. home III leader OF the
ma,cr leagues shook him warmly by
the hand.
II want 70 compliment you on the
way you slug that ball." Joe mum

n YEW YORK, June 6.-As our
M cab sped toward a spot where
steak and potatoes could be
had in large quantities, Mr..
Pinky Higgins looked out the window
and pointed to some urchhs playing
ball in the street.
That's my league" said Mr.. Hig-
gins disconsolately. That's where
ought to be, the way I'm hitting"
"Shucks," said Mr. Jimmy Foxx,
you sure have got it bad. Wait till
you put some steak inside you. Slumps
don't mean a thing to guy that's
had real dinner. Besides. you saw
someone today that looks even worse
at the plate than you do"
Yeah, that big Gehrig," agreed Mr..
Higgins. 1T makes me feel better to
watch him miss. I'm sorry for him.
though. because slump bothers him
more in the mind than it does me-"
Steak Eases His Mind.
This turned out to be true At the
dinner table Mr.. Higgins perked up.
He murdered his steak, ravaged an
acre of au gratin potatoes. outboxed
a portion Of asparagus. and wolfed all
the crab meat in sight. At the end
of the workout, Connie Mack's COM
petent third baseman allowed that a
hitting slump doesn't mean a thing to
a man with clear brain and a clean
conscience.
Then he and Mr.. FOxx began
TO anaIyze their league and their
hall club.
Don't kid yourself about our club"
admonished Mr. FoxX Well be in
the first division. We may even fn-
ish third If some of these other teams
slide like I think they will. We might
beat out Boston. for instance. We got
three good starting pitchers. Dietrich,
Marcum and WiLhere. This Wilshere
is the best young left-hander I seen
in long time. He has all it takes" )"
And Jimmy will hit wherever he
plays. catcher or first baseman." said
Mr.. Higgins. Why, he could pitch
for us and win"
Never mind the mutual ad-
miratiOn stuff" said Mr.. FOxx.
II don't mind being at first base
again, so long as we get good
catching from Paul Richards.
He looks like he's going TO do
all right"
The Yankees are the club to beat
