No Slump Seems Likely
In Boston Clubs PIoy.

Here Lardner will interrupt Cro-
min for a moment to make point
which is not generally recognized
People call the Red SoX weak in
pitching, and the Sox certainly are
not strong in that department., but
people also seem to feel that when
the summer campaign heats up
and the double-headerS come thick
and fast, Cronin's team will suffer.
The truth is just the opposite.
Now-in April and May-was the
time for the Sox to slump, if they
were going to slump. Now was the
time for the teams with so-called
strong pitching to get their best
work in. AS it happens, the Sox
lead the league going into June and
their future is brighter than their
past.
April and May, when ball clubs
play only about five games a week,
If that, is the time when strong
pitching should count. BY strong
pitching, mean two or three top
flight pitchers, such as New York
and Cleveland are said to possess.
When you play only five games a
week you can line up your strong
pitchers and work them without
resort to the scrubs and secondaries
because the inevitable postpone
ments give your aces time to rest
up between jobs.
Evening star., 1940-05-27
Bosox Hurting Corps
Apt to Surprise.

When the double headers come
you have to call on all the pitching
on your roster, good and bad. And
the Boston pitching, though medic
ere, is abundant. The Boston Sec
ondaries are at least as good as the
Cleveland and New. York second
aries. In fact, the Red Sox have
no secondary pitchers. All the men
on their staff can pitch a little.
Double-headers won't hurt them, in
my judgment, as much as they will
hurt the Indians and Yankees.
Getting back to Mr.. Cronin, a
better qualified speaker than your
correspondent, II not as long wind
ed, Joseph Is cheered by what he
heard of the Yankee record in the
West. Up or down the Yankees
are the team that every manager
IN the American League fears and
talks about and bases his reckon
ing on.
while the Yanks were really
slumping, losing eight games in a
row." says the Red Sox chieftain,
"they had me scared. I knew they
were better than that, but I didn't
know how much better. I figured
that when they broke out of their
slump, as they were bound to do,
they might win million in a row.
So was glad when they started to
win, because that gave the rest of
us the first evidence on what the
Yanks can do.

They say the "neighbors" are ap-
preaching on the west and were
about ten miles away, but today
they say they have retreated again.
Our church work in the city is
most difficult these days. A fine
school with over 200 pupils is sud
denly disrupted and not more than
ten have the courage to come back
to school after a bombing.
Last Sunday Floyd and | attended
services in the city and found 30
youngsters where there are usually
200 or more, and only handful of
adults.
The character classes have to stop
and even the workers leave the city
every day over the noon hours.
Fortunately we have had cloudy
weather almost every day since the
bombing which lessons the danger
of their coming. Practically all the
large windows in the city house
were broken this time and some of
the windows in the church, because
the bomb fell not so far from it.
That Sunday evening Miss Davis
remarked after hearing folks come
home from Christian Endeavor sing
ing and laughing, "Folks come back
so quickly. One can hardly realize
that we went through major ca
tastrophe today"
Everywhere there was a fine
happy spirit. The hospital folks
were busy all afternoon operating
and helping the wounded. One wo-
man got a piece of shrapnel in her
buttocks, another woman had to
have her arm removed, another wo-
man had her abdomen all mangled
up and the doctors and nurses tried
to fix her up as best they could. /

Unleashing their highest-powered
scoring assault of the year, Bluffton
High cagers last Friday night
trounced Chatfield, sd to 46, in the
opening round of Sectional Class B
tournament play at Carey.
After starting slowly, the Pirates
mt on the pressure in the second
and third quarters to build up
commanding advantage that enabled
them to coast thru to victory in the
closing period.
At one time in the first quarter,
Chatfeld's smoothly working quintet
held a 9 to lead, but Buttons at
tack revived near the close of the
stanza. However, at the frst-quarter
intermission Chatfeld still was out
in front, 13 to IL.
Bluffton forged ahead to a "a to

mems offense was in high gear IN
the third quarter when they ran the
count to 40 to q at the close of
the period.
With Clyde Fisher out of the game
because of too many committed per-
sonal fouls, Chatfeld's scoring power
took new lease on life in the
fourth quarter, but Buttons wide

the team to coast thru to a we'll

Americana
"She-Mon
By Elmo Scott Watson

a MONG bank-tellers two-dollar bills
4 are known as "she money" To
most people they're a synonym for
bad luck" This superstition is usual
ly attributed to race-track men and is
said TO go back about half century.
According to one story, a certain
bookie lost everything but his shoes
on the races and traced his bad luck
to the day when he wagered a two
dollar bill on certain horse. That
story got around and soon all race
track men began believing that these
bills were Jonahs.
Another story traces it back to
Pythagoras who more than $500 years
ago declared: "The number two Is the
symbol of diversity. or inequality, of
division and of separation. Two Is an
evil principle, a number of bad au-
curry, characterizing disorder, confu-
sion and change" -
Anyway, few people like to be
given two-dollar bill. The excep-
tons are paymasters In mills factories,
etc.. who pay wages such as $12, Sl4
and the like. A paymaster who pays
off a lot of $12-a-week workers can
save himself a lot of extra motion by
reaching for 81 bill instead of two
ones to add to the SO bill or two
fives. In fact, with 1000 workers he
saves just 1000 extra motions. SO pay
masters are about the only people who
ask for these bills at banks.
Few banks Will give you 50 notes I'M
less you ask for them. One reason Is
that they are easily confused with ST
bills and handed out as SUCH That's
why they're called "she money"-they
confuse You and cost you money!
a n
