The intelligence seemed To-
plunge semary into deep
thought.
Her brow furrowed and her
eyes gazed ceilingward.
Both Bill and Paula waited for
the gem of wisdom TO come forth.
Finally, as if she had weighed
every pro and con, taken every
phase of the world political situa-
ton into consideration, she spoke

said. after they were seated.
Rosemary looked hurt. II had
its usual effect. Bill Immediately
became contrite and told her to
forget it.
He ordered for them both

mind three times about the scallo-
pini--and settled back for little
mild expounding.
For the next few minutes he
aired his pet PHILOSOPHERS and
then--as was 10 be expected

He grew slightly annoyed.
II Rosemary had one flaw, Bill
told himself. il was a penchant
for letting her attention wander
when he craved il exclusively for
himself.
She was staring dreamily at the
pianist, a soft smile about her
mouth. when Bill shook her arm.
"Did, YOU get that" he asked.

Rosemary gave him fond smile
"Yes, dear" she said. Isn't

New York, National League pitching Is knocking an old theory out into the hleacher seats.
 It is the one about pitching be- ing 75 per cent or more of baseball.
 Connie Mack holds that the lively ball upped the premium on pitching toas much as 90 per cent.
 We'll, then, how come the Cipcin- natis are where they are despite the herculean efforts of Derringer, Wal ters, Wander Nicer and the mild sen- sation, Elmer Riddle.
 If at the outset of the current, campaign it could have been fore told that Johnny Wander Meer's comeback would be so thorough and Riddle would so completely live up to his name, the Reds would have been more nearly a unanimous choice than they were.

It May Be True That Pitching is 75 Per Cent or More of Baseball But it is Vastly More Effective When
 Blended With Power of Poke

the mound, the Cincinnatis hover around 10 games out at the half way mark.
 The answer is that the way has not yet been found to win ball games without runs.
 First base cannot be stolen not even by Bill Werber, who knows how to get around.
 Billy Southworth confidently stresses the fact that the Cardinals pitching held up through the St, Louis clubs first slump-a five game losing span.
 A base hit here or there would have won any one of them.
 Southworth is fully aware of the importance of pitching, but re- mained optimistic because he also knows that a batting order includ- ing Frank Crespi, Moore, Johnny Hopp, Mize, the aptly-named Slaughter, Jimmy Brown and Pad gett won'e remain a collection of Au-America outs for long.
 Starting the second half of the season with a long home stand, the Giants had Hubbell with five straight, Melton with one run yield ed in 29 rounds, young Bob Car penter with five victories and one defeat, and Schumacher and Bill Lohrman singing steadily if with out too many breaks.
 Tipof on the Polo Grounders' att tack-or lsck of one-is that IS, or almost half of their defeats, have been suffered by the margin Of a single run.
 Old Gentlemen of Harlem have done remarkably well thus far, but will be fortunate to escape the sec ond division.
 Pitching tells much of the story if a club has enough of it. but it is vastly more formidable when blend- ed with the power of the poke.
