year and that was more than a CO.
incidence. The morale of the VIC
TINS had been shattered by the de-
feat and the criticism and abuse
that followed it.
McKechnie himself was a victim
of one Of those debacles, losing his
job when the Cardinals cracked in
1929 after the Yankees had fiattened
them in the fall of '2S. But this
time he had stronger fibered bunch
and they hammered back from the
ragged edge Of ruin.
The Big Three
Barring that one slump early in
August, when lombard and Gene
Thompson were out with injuries
and the whole team rocked under
the tragic fate of Hershberger, the
Reds have given such a smooth
performance that it is difficult to
pick out this man or that and say
that if it hadn't been for him, they
wouldn't have rushed to another
flag.
But I'll cite three men without
whom the Reds would have had
much harder going: lombard, Joe
Beggs and Bill Werber.
Beggs' case illustrates once more
that a capable relief pitcher is in
dispensable in modern baseball.
Those Eighteen Games
McKechnie credits Beggs with
saving at least eight games that do
not appear in his record. Since his
record was 10 victories and only two
defeats. you can chalk up ID games
the Reds would not have won with
out him. Take those ID games out
Of the victory column and put them
on the other side of the ledger and
the Reds would have been whistling
for a pennant, much less a World
series.
"Beggs has the two qualities that
are most essential to a relief pitch
err" Bill said. Control and faith
in himself. A fellow moving in to
check an enemy assault must be
able to get the ball around the plate
and must take no account of the
odds against him. Beggs has won
derful control and l never saw q
pitcher who, without being in the
least conceited, never has the slight
est doubt about himself"

Super-guns capable of shooting
tremendous ranges long have been
limited to be Germany's much-her-
aided secret weapon. So when shells
began falling on the British Dover
cliffs, thousands of residents packed
their worldly goods and scampered
inland.
However, the distance from Do
yer to the gun emplacements on the
French coast is hardly more than
20 miles. Most modern powers have
coastal guns that will shoot that dis
lance. They are the same IL and

range opened up on the German en-
placements.

the air ministry admitted the toll of

The British returned the calls

BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

IN the southern part of New Jer-
sey, on the many sandy borders
where cranberry bogs are found,
the curly grass fern is abundant.
All who are interested in ferns al
ways delight in discovering one or
more members of this great family,
individualistic in habits or form
This is true of the curly grass fern
for many years known only as a
native of New Jersey.
After its discovery. however, there
was a general lookout to find more
of these plants. Mrs. E. G. Brit
ton found several in Nova Scotia.
and in 1896 Rev. Arthur Waghorne
discovered several very handsome
specimens in Newfoundland. This
was really by the way of a redis-
covery, because De la Pylaie found
them many years before Mr.. Wag-
horne did and placed them in the
Jardin des Plantes at Paris. They
were labelled as from Newfoundland
At the present time, it is believed
that the curly grass fern may be
found in fairly large numbers in
New Jersey, Nova Scotia and New
foundland. Some doubt that there
are any to be found now in Nova
Scotia.
And why is it this fern is so very
partial to New Jersey? Well, as
you know there are great stretches
OF country where there are bogs with
many variations of soil and tenn
perature. Having found the con-
dltions needed for success, why move
farther?
Once you have taken up the study
OF ferns, visited them in their fasci-
mating haunts, and realized what
a complicated life cycle they pos
sess, you are always looking for
more of them. If you are so fortu-
nate that you may have a fernery
OF your own, your spare time is
filled with becoming more familiar
with the ways and the habits of
these f1owerless plants. There are
to be had some wonderful folklore
stories on these plants and there
are several excellent books written
about the better-known ferns.
The curly grass fern rarely wan
