Something of the way Clark
I Griffith is getting by on the
~ proverbial shoestring-and
getting by very well. too--is the not
so odious comparison that is struck
when the Nationals stack up along
side such expensive base ball entries
as Tom Yawkey's Golden Boys OF
Boston. the Cardinals. the Yankees
and even the Tigers.
True. Griff peeled of $4,000 for
Buck Newsom last year. back in 1880
he was reported to have laid out
s65. 900 for Joe Kuhel. and, when he
Myer on second base for keeps, he
discovered the price was pretty steep.
But the Old Fox's outlay for base
ball talent, at least in dollars and
cents, is pin money compared to the
do-re-mi spent by Yawkey for a
dozen ready-m made stars, by Col. Jake
Rupert for such diamond flesh as

Wind-up May Worry Batter.

r USSELL, as worried as Harris and
Griff, fell in with the plans en-
Enthusiastically. Jack is not as fast as
he was a few years ago, notably in
1888 when his hard one was sinking
and batSmen were beating it into the
ground and drilling into double plays.
Russell is 10-year man in the Amer
lean League now and time has taken
q toll
The idea of wind-up, a take-of on
the style of most pitchers, strictly was
invented to add deception to Russell's
delivery. Heretofore, Jack would re-
ceive his signal and promptly fall into
a brief. Rhythmic swing that stood out
as study in pitching ease. His con-
troll rarely was poor. and batters, so
Harris believes, felt perfectly safe in
digging their spikes into the ground
and teeing off when the ball came
across. There was little to fear in the
way of 'beanings." and there was no
variation in Russells style. Hence a
batter quickly "grooved" himself
against Jack.
The wind-up, which Russell used for
the first time Yesterday in batting
practice. is calculated to disturb the
hitter much more than Jacks old
method of delivering the ball. 1t is a
sort Of pumphandle wind-up that
finds Russell varying the number of
times he swings his arm up and down
before hurting the ball.
why shouldn't it work?' asked
Harris. Its entirely logical. Russell
has as much stuff on the ball as Yves
Ferrell, Ted Lyons, Al Crowder or Ivy
Andrews, to name few. And what's
the secret of their success? Deception,
that's all.

The impact of his body on the

CHAPTER VIII

Nov as Kerry Young walked on
L Y alone through the fine rain,
that mental snarl which Jim
Hinkle's confession had occasioned
Strengthened out into this simple
fact:
If Jim had not a lawyer-prOof
alibi to absolve him from suspicion
in the Downer matter, then the
whereabouts of Tod West on that
fateful night were also open to spec
ulatiOn.
Hinkle was no killer. Despite the
mans misgivings Of self, Kerry was
convinced that, drunk or sober, he
would will no serious harm to even
his worst enemy.
And last night, Ezra had said, the
first piece of money from the
Downer loot had made it's appear
ance; had made its appearance in
a poker game in which Tod West
sat cheating.
He stood still, digesting these
simple but perhaps astounding i'm
plications.
If West had not played cribbage
with Hinkle, he might have been
anywhere that November evening.
If West were in possession OF the
money for which Cash Downer had
been murdered, that would be a fact
to arouse the official interest of a
coroner's clerk, for certain.
And, added to these, was this
item: that Tod West had been
going armed for no one knew how
long.

SYNOPSIS

Kerry Young, lad of seven, is
prepared to fee the burning lumber
camp of his benefactor, Jack Snow,
who took the yOungster to live with
him at the death of Kerrys mother.
Tod West has instructed Kerry to
come with file containing the camps
funds should it be endangered.
Flames attack the office, and Kerry,
hugging the precious file, and Tod
race to town. Tod acts Queerly. At
the bank the file is found empty and
Kerry is blamed with taking the
wrong one. Snow, his headquarters
and money gone, is ruined, and soon
thereafter dies, leaving Kerry to the
Poor Commissioner. Kerry suspects
Tod and swears to even the score.
In a st. Paul office Kerry, now in
manhood, and an expert woodsman,
learns of the whereabouts of West
Kerry rescues a lovely girl from a
scoundrel, who proves to be West
Tod threatens to pauperize the girl
Nan Downer. She thanks Kerry and
tells him of the robbery, and murder
of her father and of Tod's advances.
She is operating lumber tract which
her father had purchased from West.
Kerry makes camp. At the general
store in Vests Landing, he finds
Tod engaged in a poker game. Jim
Hinkle, timber employee, loses heav-
lily. Kerry exposes Tod's cheating
and disarms him. The crowd is un-
convinced of Tods duplicity. Kerry
identifies himself to West, who de-
MES knowing him, and advises him
to leave town. Nan tells Dr. Ezra
Adams of Kerry's rescue of her from
Tod, and of Vests threat. Ezra, who
is coroner, visits Kerry, and appoints
him coroners clerk. Suspicion of
the murder had rested on Holt Stu
art, employee of Downer, and upon
Jim Hinkle, who was cleared by Tod.
The doctor has the fatal bullet and
the serial numbers of the stolen
bills, one of which has just been
paid to Adams. 1t came out of the
poker game. Tod orders Jim to run
Kerry out of town. Kerry discovers
he is being spied upon by a breed.
Jim comes to Kerry with a warning
TO clear out. Kerry answers with a
laugh. Nan hires Kerry. Young res
cues Jim's daughter from drowning.
While in the water, Frank Bluejay,
the breed who had spied on Kerry,
had tried to drown Kerry. Young
settles with him.

He'd found me wanderin' along the

Nobody knows just when Cash
was killed but, as West tells it,
that was probably some little time
afterward. He set there and fig

SO he said he was always ready
