Watch Your Manners

Is politeness decaying? Don't
permit that. 1t will develop into
sheer brutality.
If you care a great deal for a
man as he is, you may be able to

People have to become thor

thoroughly punish crime.
Religion of most people is a
very good one if they would pay
more attention to it.
What Price Relief
Hurting a bad egg has never
settled an argument; but hasn't it
been a great relief.
Some can enter a room impress
sively; and not so many car leave

You must expect to see displays
of ignorance all the time. Don't
let them perturb you.

Envy

w HAT a wretched and
w apostate state is this! To
be offended with excellence and
to hate a man because we
approve him! The condition of
the envious man is the most
emphatically miserable; he is
not only incapable of rejoicing
in another's merit or success,
but lives in a world wherein
all mankind are in a plot
against his quiet, studying their
own happiness and advantage.

bunts down the first base line
may be utilized to the good of the
team. If and when Buddy Myer
returns to the game, the GriffS
will have four of the stylish bunt-
erS of baseball.
Some Good Bunters
Let's look 'em over for the sake
of the record.
Unless changes are made in the
personnel and lineup of the GriffS
we will have Ben Chapman lead
ing the batting order. There are
few Slicker bunters than the
'Bama Arrow. Let the third base
man play too far back, and he's
just spotting Chapman a base hit.
Buddy Lewis has learned the
art of bunting in his first major
league year. Some ball players
never acquire the knack, but
Buddy proved to his own satiSfac-
tion, that practice makes perfect.
Bunting skillfully and developing
the knack of slap hitting to the
shortstop's right round out a most
effective batting technique. Lewis
naturally is a pull hitter, and
when he attains his growth he is
going to be power hitter.

And now that's enough OF
Ruth, the hero of the purpled
past. Our song is Of Joe Di
Maggie, who yesterday walloped
the longest home un ever seen
in Griffith Stadium. Di Mag
gio'S blast landed in dead center
field, more than half way up in
the bleacher seats. When it
struck, it bounced off the retain
ing wall and missed going out of
the lot by a matter of a foot.
From the press stand it seemed
that the ball was only six inches
from the top, but it may have
been more.
Well not argue a matter Of
inches when such Gargantuan
hits ring off the bats. Suffice
to say that nothing ever manu-
factured by Ruth; nothing hurled
from the bat of Gehrig nor pro-
jected by the bludegon of Jimmy
F'oxx surpassed this terrific blow
by the young Italian.
Hits COhen'S Fast Ball
Sgd Cohen was in the box and
shot over a fast ball that was
high and outside. 1t was right
in the zone of Di Maggio's great
est power, and Joe took that
short but sweetly smooth stride
forward to meet it. His heavy
bat lashed through its arc and
met the ball fair and square.
Well, it just kept climbing, and
you knew it was gone.
Despite this homeric blow by
this youth, who steals the head
lines as Ruth stole them a base
ball generation before him, the
GriffS won their fourth conSecu-
tive victory, and reached the high
water mark in their sustained sue
cesses of the season. What is
more. it marked their third tri-
umph over the prospective cham
pionS in four games. Also, the
Griffs are at the tip of the second
division, winning again while the
Boston Red Flops were idle.
Earl Whitehill had q break for
change and scored a rather easy
victory. The boys got him five
runs in the first inning, and that
just about settled the issue. White
hill retired in the seventh inning
to let Cecil Travis bat in his
place. Travis came through in
fine style and drove a run over
the plate.

LONDON, Aug. 18 GNSO.
American teams have taken their
last Olympic trip with the men
and women athletes on the same
ship, it can be said today on the
authority of Avery Brundage,
chairman of the United States
Olympic committee.
The next time, he said, the
women will be segregated on an
auxiliary ship, carrying the women
swimmers, divers, tracksters, fenc-
ers and gymnasts-provided they
go at all.
For it is a possibility that the
international committee will vote
in the meantime to divorce COM
pletely the mems and women's
Olympics, with the latter being
held at a different date.
Brundage explained:
"It will come to that. In the
meantime, I can promise that
the American women athletes
will sail on a ship quite apart
from the men,"
HOLM KICKBACK
The committee chairman's state.
ment was taken as a direct kick.
back of the expulsion of Mrs.
Eleanor Holm Jarrett for break
ing training rules against drink
ing, although it also probably
reflects the generally unsatiSfac'
tory and crowded conditions be"
low decks, of which Brundage
seemingly only recently became
aware. He claims he left the
matter in the hands of Others
who failed to keep him apprised.
Brundage made the statement
to this writer during the airplane
trip to London from Berlin last
weekend, but he refused to dis
cuss the woman athlete angle
beyond saying they do not belong
on the same sea voyage as the
men.
Games Separate
He strongly indicated that the
international committee, to which
he had just been appointed, was
already considering an Olympic
divorce for the 1910 games at
Tokyo.
If this is done, the women'S
games will have separate swim"
ming championship, in addition
to track and field, which will be
enlarged to take in all the stand
ard events.
