Distance No Barrier
Electrical communication, according
to Or. Jev;ctte, he's crossed many from
tiers in the last few decades. 1t is
true, he says, as in every other field
that frontier once crossed can never
again be frontier. Telephone scien-
lists for whom the spanning of a con-
tinent or an ocean with speech chan
nels was once a challenge have through
their success closed the door forever
rier of distance to telephony anywhere
on the globe where man may be. The
establishment Of telephone channels is
purely a matter of economics or of
policy.
Sixty-five Countries
Telephone communication is now
possible between more than sixty
five countries and geographical To-
cations on the six. continents of the
globe. Sixty years ago it was possible
to talk only between two telephones
connected by thirty feet of wire.

Red SOx Picked to Press.

DESPITE their poor start in Spring
exhibition games, the star studded
Boston Red Sox undoubtedly rate as
the logical rivals of the Bengal crew,
with the New York Yankees and Cleve-
land Indians also dangerous. The
second division seems probable for the
other four clubs-St Louis, Chicago,
Washington and the hapless Philadel-
phia Athletics.
Here's how they line up at the
starting line:
Detroit-Approximately the same
team as 1885 except for Simmons and
a fine assortment of rockies. who give
every promise of dazzling the league
Simmons is bound to aid the Tiger at
tack. Even last year. when his batting
average fell to a new low of .267 with
the White Sox. he drove in more runs
than his predecessor, Jo-Jo White Of
the Tiger outfield. Pitching will be
strong, if not stronger. Spirit is run
ming higher than ever
Boston-Harmony is the big uues-
ton. If Joe Cronin's lineup of stars
dig in and harmonic, the Red Sox
will prove tough with a batting order
like this: Almada, Cramer, Manush.
Foxx, Cronin, McNair, Werber and
Rick Ferrell. each a star capable of
breaking up a ball game. Pitching
should be good enough with Grove. r
Ferrell, Ostermuller, Marcum and five
others.
