 The new vogue for naturalt1ess ought to make spring 1890 a great deal simpler for the beauty-minded.
 It's Q season to wear . comfort. able foundation garment instead of Q tightly laced, wasp.watst cor: set; to wear your hair straight, if you find that 1t Is becoming minus curls and swirls; to let it be It's natural color.
 The ideal figure at the moment has a stretched, supple look DO" tween hipbones and hollows under" heath arms. fortunately, for the majority, this Is easily obtainable without resort to bones and lacings. Attention to rules for good posture, jiIf1bering and stretching exercises and a comfortable. flexible founda- ton garment will accomplish fine results in this direction.
 Some of the sIs1artest Fifth Ave- nue hairdressers are advising chic patrons to try wearing their haN straight. If you have thin, fine hair and a long face, you won't even consider the idea, of course. But if your features are pretty symmet. rical, your hair thick and easy to manage, you most certainly will. Especially when you remind your. self that the swimming season isn't far off.
 IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE
 AS TIT SOUNDS
 One new hair.do for uncurled locks features a smooth crown and sides and turned.under ends. Another is parted in the middle with long ends at the back fashioned Into a soft, rolled looking figure eight.
 Remember, however, that decid- ing to forego @ permanent wave and to wear some kind of straight coiffure this spring doesn't mean that you won't have to spend any time on your hair. To achieve a glossy sheen on which the charm of uncurled hair depends, you'll have to use your hairbrush even more assiduously, shampoo even oftener and perhaps 60 In for a special rinse now and then.

REDS PITCHING

 AT FIELDING TOO

CINCINNATI, Oct. -1.- Bucky Walters, the National Leagues most valuable player of 1889, started out this year as if he was going to repeat for the Cincinnati Reds He won his first nine games in a row, then stumbled four times before getting the tenth.
 Then he started another string but had to make four tries for his 16th. The fact that he couldn't repeat his 1899 record of 27 vic- tories and 10 losses doesn't mean that Bucky is slipping though About half his defeats this year resulted from light hitting by his teammates.
 He's top-notch fielder He treated himself to an unassisted double-play on an attempted sac rifice early in September.
 Off season he goes duck hunting with Jimmy Wilson, who made an ace pitcher out of a run-of-the- mine third baseman, named Wal ters.

DRAMATIC MOMENTS;

gel was the drama maker.
 Casey homered within the park in the seventh inning of that first 1923 game and the Giants beat the Tanks, To Stengel was no youngster and sports writers had great fun telling how he huffcd and puffed to beat that ball home
 So, two days later, when Casey came to bat in the ninth, two out and the score tied at A, a chorus of cheers-and jeers-greeted him Stengel swung twice and it looked like Casey at the Bat" literally. But his next effort sent the ball into the right field stands for a homer. His trot around the bases was one of exaggerated leisure. That 1O-Run Inning
 There was drama aplenty in that famous seventh inning of the fourth game between the Chicago Cubs and the Athletics in 1929. The As had won two of the first three games. In the fourth, at Philadelphia, the Cubs rolled up an so lead going into the seventh and the most rabid Athletic fans had conceded the visitors victory and tied series.
 Al Simmons, first Athletic up, homered. Polite applause ac- knowledged his useless effort But FORK singled, an outfielder lost the next mans fly, there were some more hits, Hack Will son misjudged a fly which went for three-run homer, and the score was suddenly 8-7. Coch- rane walked, Simmons bounder went over the third baseman's head, FoXx singled and the crowd went wild as Cochrane tied the score. Jimmy Dyke, double little later in the in- ming was good for two more runs
 There were other sudden, un- expected moments of dram a Like the time Connie Mack sur prisingly stuck old Howard Ehmke in against the Cubs in the first 1929 game-and Ehmke not only beat them but set World Series strikeOut record.
 Or that 1920 series, when Bil Wambsganss turned in a triple play, unassisteds for Cleveland against the Dodgers. Or Ear Smiths homer with the bases loaded for Cleveland in that same series.

This Mrs. Roosevelt is a small woman, with silvery hair, soft voice and a love of pretty clothes. She married young T. E. in 1910 and is the mother of four children-a married daughter and three sons. For years she played the role of political wife while her husband served as Assistant Secretary of the Navy as Governor General of the Philippines and Governor of Puerto Rico.
 Only Scared Once
 Needlework is her hobby. Quen- tin, her youngst son, works out her designs and she turns out samplers and waistcoats which make one woman shows and win prizes.
 Some of her world wide activities have given the family a few shocks. Take the time she went to war. Her husband was sent to France in com- mand of a regiment of regulars dur ing the last World War and Mrs. Roosevelt wanted to go and do war work He said, No. Too dangerous, !" and cabled her twice not to come. So she went. First thing he knew of it was when a friend said. T saw your wife in Paris today
 She remained throughout the war, worked in YMCA canteens and leave areas and was on hand to nurse her husband when he was wounded.
 In 1926, Colonel Roosevelt went to Asia in search of Marco Polo sheep for the Field Museum Mrs. Roose- welt joined him in Kashmir for three months of big game hunting. Shot a couple of tigers and kept her balance on an elephant when it ran away.

CINCINNATI. Oct. l. = Some competent baseball observers think that Johnny Hutchings, 24-year- Cincinnati recruit from Pensacola in the Georgia Florida League has more speed than Bobby Teller.
 That is a matter for scientific determination, but Manager Bill McKechnie believes in the 200. pounder and gave him several starting chances. He showed lack of seasoning but he also demon strated that he could put a hole in barn door if you asked him to.
 More control, both of the ball and of his nerves when the bases are loaded, will put the boy across, Red coaches say.

Every World Series has had it's drama and down the long list of stirring incidents old-timers like to recall are a few that stand out moments hard to equal.
 Like the one in the seventh game in 1926. Jess Haines was pitching for the Cards St. Louis had three runs, New York two-but the Yan- kees had had men on base in every inning and were nipping at that lead.
 Haines, weakening in the seventh, suddenly found the bases filled with two out.
 And up to bat came doughty Tony Lazzeri = the ''poosh- 'em- up'' guy, the ordinary batter who became slugging terror in @ clutch. Haines shook his head and stepped off the mound.
 Then there was a roar from the crowd That figure stalking in from the distant brlll-pen was old Grover Cleveland Alexan- der, with two series triumphs already chalked up, coming in to pull this che from the fire. He had beaten the Tanks just the day before.
 The Pitch!
 Lazzeri set himself. Alex pitched Strike" Called.
 Ball"
 Alex stretched, let go and every Cardinal fan groaned. Laz- zeri had slammed a wicked drive down the left field foul line.
 But it was foul.
 Alexander still the method ical workman despite the fu- rore, uncorked his next pitch Lazzeri swung, the catcher non- chalantly rolled the ball back tC the box and the Cards had won the series. Not Yankee reached first in the next two innings.
 There hardly has been a more dramatic moment than wher Babe Ruth faced Charley Root of the Cubs in the 1892 third game. Babe was disgusted witt the taunts of the Cubs. Some 50,000 fans saw Ruth, at the plate, point his bat to the dis tant bleachers, calling his shot. And he did just what he threat ened, blasting a homer jus lbout to that spot.
 Then there was the ninth in ming of the 1924 seventh game when Walter Johnson replaced Fred Marberry Johnson, mos popular and greatest pitcher O. his day, had been beaten in two other starts. The Washington outlook was dark. But. Waite held the Giants scoreless inninl after inning until Washington won in the twelfth when Mo Neely's grounder bounced ove Lindstrom's head and scored Ruel.
