WALLACE WOOS MEXICO

The return of the Marquis of
Lothian, British ambassador to
the United States, from his re-
cent trip to London. marked the
beginning of what seems to be
new British policy in respect to
war news. The ambassador, upon
his arrival in this country, frank
ly intimated that Great Britain is
reaching the end of her dollar re-
sources. with the suggestion that
this country may be called upon
tC extend credit if British war
purchases are tn be continued.
1t is very difficult to ascertain
the extent of British holdings
available to finance war purchas-
es, out in view of the fact that
contracts have to be protected in
order TO assume manufacturers
that funds are available for the
purchases, it is generally regard
cd as reasonable to suppose that
British dollar credits will be Sc
IiOusly extended before the end
Of 1871.

Tn journey Of the Vice-Presi-

cordial relations which has mar
red the history Of the United

historical reasons, there has been
distrust ard suspicion of the mo-

and considerable fear of the
might of the colossal neighbor
able at almost any time TO obi

pie. Of course, Americans. as a

The same is true of Bob Teller.
The 21-year-old Van Meter sensa-
ton is only getting under way. With
only a fair share of luck Feller has
at least Is big years left-years dur
ing which he might easily turn out
to be the same thing to baseball
that Bobby Jones was to golf.
In many other ways the two are
alike-both were and are highly
popular with their fellow players
and their opponents. Both have
always belonged to the upper
branches of craftsmanship.
A Closeup on Feller
I had breakfast with Bobby Teller
in Tampa the morning of the all
star game for the Finnish fund. He
was as unspoiled as any prominent
athlete have ever known.
1 noticed another leading point.
For example, as Joe Cronin, boss
of the Boston Red Sox, came into
the dining room he came well out
Of his way to slap Feller on the back
and say, Hello, slug" As other vet
Grams came by they'd all stop by
Feller's table with Hello, BUTCH
"Howya, kid"-"Hello, Bob"
These were all stars and you could
see there wasn't a player in the
room who did not like and admire
this 21-year-old Iowa rifleman. He
held not only their friendship, but
their respect. They not only under
stood his greatness as a pitcher, but
also his modesty and his friendi-
ness.
He reminded me at the time of
the Bobby Jones of 10 or Is years
ago, during the progress of an open
championship. They all wanted to
beat Jones the worst way-but they
all liked him and admired him and
paid him the tribute he had earned.

might be called the Twins Of Dawn.
Their names are Bobby Teller and

They were almost exactly alike

enough then to travel to the final
eight in the National Amateur where
only inexperience stopped him. At
that age he was the best golfer in
the big field.
From seven years on Bobby Jones
only developed the muscles needed
for a golf swing. There were no
contradictory or outside muscles
that might have come from base
ball, football or some other sport.
His working muscles all belonged
exclusively to golf. He never even
played checkers or dominoes.

putter, golfer, a tennis player and
a basketball luminary-extremely
good at each of these games.
He had well-developed but conflict
ing muscles to handle, and these in
time left him muscle-bound.
There can be too much muscle
for any smooth, flowing action. If
Rowe had concentrated on baseball
alone in his younger days he might
have been one of the greats of all
time.
AS it was the Tiger giant was a
brilliant performer for a year or
two until too many of his muscular
habitats in the back and shoulders
began to tie him up.
Bob Teller, spoiled, fresh or swell
headed, might have been almost as
great a pitcher as he is. But he
would have missed by many meters
the height he holds today in public
favor. Especially in the favor of
his mates and his opponents.
If the kids of this country care to
pick out someone to follow in every
respect, they could make no mis-
take in following the methods and
manners of this Iowa farm boy,
who, I am quite sure, will remain
unspoiled to the last ball he throws.
