Edward B. Eynon,
jr., just couldn't be-
ieve it.
First he looked at
Mrs. Eynon, W h o S e
gracious and sterling
smile so matches his
own.
Then he glanced around the
table at Congressional Country
Club where the baseball bunk
sters, both newspaper and
radio, with their Jenny Wrens,
were playing host to the per-
sonable travelling secretary
treasurer of the Washington
team.
It was a little testimonial to a
very great guy and everybody had

Bit o'Porodise
The food had been good. The
conversation had been pleasant.
The small dance floor seemed to
glide beneath your feet as the
lovely ladies draped their slender
forms feminist your bosom-and
indeed it was like an hour spent IN
paradise.
But in the midst of it all
the guest of honor seemed slightly
Ill at ease.
There was something missing.
The fellow was just short Of poise.
His beaming countenance endured,
but a puzzled emotion shone
through.
He shifted the plates and
saucers just a trifle. He toyed with
the naperie.
The champion check-grabber Of
them all, who has picked up more
dinner tabs than any man in
Washington, at last was hand
cuffed, and in truth it was a
strange sensation.

BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
The problem club of the Amer.
lean League Of Professional Base
ball Clubs is Boston. The Red
Sox finished sixth last year after
practically everyone except
Joseph Vincent Mccarthy of the
Yankees, and Gordon Stanley
Cochrane of the Detroit Tigers
had conceded them the pennant.
Most notable among those who
conceded the pennant to Boston
was none other than Joseph Ed
ward Cronin, manager of the Red
Sox. He stated without reserva-
tionS that his club would win the
flag, but modestly admitted that
his margin would not be greater
than six games. Poignant indeed
was his grief when the Red Sox
tumbled out of the first division
after a season filled with woe and
tribulation.
1t has been said by those who
are fairly close to the situation
in Boston that lack of spirit
rather than lack of ability caused
the failure of the Red Sox last
year. This has been denied
vehemently. The baseball world
listened politely to the denialS
and reserved decision.
Depends Upon Cronin
Making all concessions on the
score OF club amity, but reserving
the right to give a certain Gre
dence to some of the tales, perhaps
it may be said that Cronin's sue
cess or failure this year will de-
pend entirely upon how cleverly
and how solidly he can fire the
spirit of the Red Sox by his lead
ership.
The Red Sox do not figure to
land in the second division this
year, nor did they figure to land
there last year. But hardy and
bold is the prophet who will ven.
ture any opinion upon their prob
able position on the closing day
of the season.
Boston collapsed last year where
practically everyone figured they
would be strongest. Johnny Mar
cum, who won y games with the
1885 Athletics could do no better
than eight victories as against 13
defeats. Marcum's earned run
average was 4.81 per nine-inning
game.
Fred Ostermueller, the veteran
Southpaw was another flop. He
had a little hard luck, but the
hits Of rival batters were harder
than his luck. Ostermueller won
10 games, lost 16, and allowed
210 hits in 181 innings. His
earned run average was 4.81.
Grove Only Exception
Wesley Ferrell won 20 games
and lost IS, and had an earned
run average of 4.19.
There wasn't a pitcher who
might be regarded as regular
last year who kept the enemy
under four earned runs per nine
inning game with the exception
of Lefty Grove.
Grove had a remarkable rec
ord, winning II games and losing
IL. His earned run average was
2.81. Grove was a consistent
winner against first division
clubs. He won IL games out of
his II against upper bracket op-
position, and beat Detroit five
times.
Roger Cramer and Melo Al
mada were disappointments in
Boston. Cramer was away off
form, and so was the Mexican
youth. They should improve this
yer. So should the pitchers as a
staff. Grove is approaching a
stage in his career where he may
or may not produce another win
ming year.
CrOnin Also a Problem
Cronin is something of a prob
lem. He no longer is a good short
stop, and there is talk of his NOV

SUNDAY DINNER
SUGGESTIONS
~ ANN PAGE

FREEZING weather in California
and flood conditions in the Mississippi
basin have affected supplies and prices
of most foods either directly or SYM
pathetically due to increased demand
on whatever is available. Most direct
ly affected are navel oranges, lemons,
avocados and Iceberg lettuce with
peas, celery and broccoli to lesser
extent.
Lamb, pork and poultry offer the
best meat values, eggs are plentiful
and very reasonable and butter is low
er than last year at this season.
The three dinners given below are
based on current market conditions.

Exciting to art as well as film
circles is the news that Salvador

some time to use Harpo as a sub

Hollywood hears, British censors

company to take advantage of this
will be Paramount in "Souls at

cautious, however. The queen will
appear only in single shot, then
with her back to the camera. All
you hear her say is:

To get the right actress for this

people. Viva Tattersall, Is years

role because her voice is considered
to have the proper regal quality.

YOUR CHANCE

YOUR CHANCE
Caught in the current of lifes' fathom-
less stream,
You cannot drop your oars and drift
to your dream;
Drawn by the power of the strong
undertow,
You have but one chance. If you win,
you must row.
If you do that for which you know
you've no gift,
Follow that course which brings your
spirit no lift,
And from today receive not full need
of gain,
How can you hope desired goal to
attain?

ISdI CAl, pl OOdDiy VIII iilio i4tti1 outlet in the Supreme Court.
 Even before the klan issue arose, veteran hands around the court predicted that the elder justices would make short work of any efforts by the vigorous eX-senator to tangle attorneys in their own tales.
 Black was relentless in examin- ming recalcitrant witnesses be- fore senate committees. Corpora ton executives who had survived hours of cross-eXamination in court with superb calm were re- duced to wild-eyed bewilder- nent under the fire of Senator Black and his colleagues on the lobby investigation committee.
 In court, witnesses are protect ed by their counsel and by cer- tain rules of decorum. But in a senate committee all bars are down and the witness is at the mercy of senators who act as judge, prosecuting attorney and Jury. They make their own rules of procedure as they go and show little mercy when in pursuit of evidence to support the legislation for which they are drumming.
 His Style Cramped
 It was in that field, and in his earlier experience as police jud- ge and prosecuting attorney, that Black learned the art that made him the most savage examiner since the late Senator Walsh of Montana. who conducted the Tea pot Dome investigation.
 Yet when the justice begins his work on the court, his field for examination will be hemmed in on dozen fronts. First off. he won't be examining Witnes- es. He will be examining skilled attorneys. He will not be search ing witnesses for facts. but will be questioning attorneys about points of law. For in the Sup renne Court there is little digging out of bare facts. Facts of the case all must have been determln ed in the lower courts. The Sup reme Court. save in rare instanc- es, deals only with how the law applies to the facts.
 IL is true that attorneys are occasionally subjected to gruell- ing examination by members of the court But often a member of the court will come to the rescue of an attorney being picked to bits by another member.
 Court Discipline
 Justice Brandeis delights in pulling beleagured attorneys out of the claws of some of the con- servative members of the court. If he feels that an attorney is be- ing led into an unfair position through questioning by one of the justices, he will say unhesi- tatingly:
 "If I were counsel, l should not answer that question"
 Again, a justice may baffie an attorney with demand for a citation of cases to support some obscure point. Justice Stone, Butler and others, liberals and conservatives alike, may cut in to suggest:
 Does the attorney recall the case of Anderson vs the United States in which it was held-so and so.'
 Or one justice may take more direct course by shooting the an- swer straight back at the justice who asked the question.
 Now Black comes to the court skilled as an examiner of facts. But even his best friends would not say he is so quick on the trigger in law as his veteran colleagues. Any court observers suspect the elderly justices will be laying for him when he gets out of bounds.
