Right"
Stepping into the lobby, he felt the
warm rich thrill that he always sensed
here. the feeling Of people moving
around him in the quiet dimness. Of
soft music from the cocktail lounge,
the murmur of many blended conver-
sations and quiet laughter. Mostly, it
was the feeling of walking among
people, that he treasured.
Of course Doc Meldon disapproved
strongly of all this, said he ought to
stay away from crowds. But Ander-
sons one regret was that it took so
long to get here "a whole minute,
usually, from l1O8 to the lobby.
He moved le.surely toward the
lobby door, planning to stand there
for a few minutes - two minutes,
possibly three - and watch the cars
pull away from the door, the blatant
yellow taxs and the decorous town

She wasn't dressed for the Harden

it came from a bargain basement.
1t was the bitter resentment in her
voice and face that stopped Anderson.
I'm really very sorry" he said.
Anything l could do ?"
She said. Yes. you could move on.
That dumb house dick there seems to

Anderson turned and saw Glarnan,
the house detective, glowering. He
nodded and'waved a greeting Glarnan

his face, beamed, bowed, and quickly
turned the other way and stared with
deep interest at blank wall.

politan funds are at work throughout
the United States and Canada. This
wide geographic distribution of funds
minimizes the effects of varying busi-
ness or agricultural conditions in any
one section.
Of course, each Metropolitan in
vestment, once made, is carefully
watched. Metropolitan's investment
experts must be ever on the alert.
Because the interest earned by the
Company's investments helps pay the
cost of your life insurance, Metropol-
tan strives to earn the highest rate of
interest consistent with satety. During
the past ten years, there has been a
substantial decline in interest income
on most forms of life insurance COM
pany investments. One result has been
to reduce the amount available for
dividends to policyholders-a reduc-
ton which the savings in mortality
and expenses have not been sufficient
to offset.
These are four safeguards with
which Metropolitan surrounds the
funds that about 100000 policy
holders have entrusted to its care.
They give assurance that in the future,
as always in the past, the Company
will fulfill all its obligations, in good
times and bad.

VAUGHAN MIGHT
 GET DODGERS IN
 PENNANT PHOTO
Pittsburgh Star Has Life' time Batting Average
 of 1920

New York, Dec. l3-(UP) Brook iyn said goodbye to four Of the be- loved Buns today but the brief cere" inony was obscured by general 70. joicing that Arkie Vaughan, for 10 years one of the most potent batserS in tho National league, would play for the Dodgers in ie42.
 Vaughan was procured yesterday in one of the biggest deals of the annual winter trading season and one which removed two of General Manager Larry MaePhaii's iFritat. Ing problems-Pitcher Luke (Home Run BaiD Hamlin and Catcher Babe (The Dllmp) Pheips-frota the Dodger roster.
 Ramlin, Phelps, reserve iniielder Pete Coscarart and outhelder Jimmy Wasdell were traded to the Pitts burgh Pirates for the stocky Buc ins fielder. Although the cost appears high, it actually wasn't.
 That's because Phelps had played only 10 games when he quit the Dodgers on c western trip last year; Hamiin fell for from the form which won him % games two years ago; mad Coscarart was used mainly aS Q runner In Q few contests. WaS- dell was the most important Dodger in the trade. He hit .200 in 94 ganies and was an excellent per. former in the field.
 Mize Was "St0len"
 The deal, more or less expected, came as Q slight surprise because the National league meeting In Chi. cago ended officially Thursday. Mac- Phail had announced he was after two men-Vaughan and Johnny Mize of St. Louis, who was :stolen" away by the New York Giants.
 Vaughan will plug ct least one and maybe two gaps In the Brooklyn lnfield. He is 30, married and not likely to be called for military service. He will take over the short- stop position if Pee Wee Reese, now classed 1-A, is inducted Into the Army.
 Until then, however, MacPhail and Manager Leo Durocher are ex- pected to oust Cookie Lavagetto at third base. Vaughan will play there as long as Reese remains with the team and his batting prowess is certain to add punch to the Dodger attack.
 Vaughan has played in the Pitts burgh infield for 10 years and while No zorina in the field, he has com piled 8 lifetime batting average of .320. His best average was in 1885 when he won the National league championship at 1885 and was selected as the leagues most valu- able player. Last year he played in only 106 games and hit .3l6. He hit two home runs against the American League in the all-star game.

(Reg. U. s. Pat, 0alee) BY HACK dUENTNER

United Press stan CorFespOndent)
 New York, Dec. lS - (U,P9 = When war comes, personal dlsaps polntmentS invariably melt Into in- significance. This is particularly true in sports, where yesterdays headline is today's minor Item, When c nation begins Q fight for it's existence, the sacrifice Of boxing, baseball or fotball careers can't be expected to matter greatly.
 But while realizing this, I'd like to bring Up the case of Robert VII. Ham Andrew Teller, the 23-year. old boy from Van Meter, To. Ho fig. Iired the other day in Q two.ineh sport page story which two years ago would have resulted in 0 nas tlonal sensation. The story stated that young Bob had joined the navy.
 Teller has known for some time that he would spend i042 In one or another branch of the armed forces, Yet, while other baseball figures, fighters, jockeys and football stars have pleaded various reasons for defeFment, Teller has asked no- thing. Whatever he could do, he said simply, he would do.
 On the surface, his sacrifice is' no greater than those which thousands of other boys and men wil make, But there iB Q difference between eFller and other boys of his age or men who are Q little older. For the Van Meter youth has followed Q singular pattern of life. Since he was first able to toddle, Teller has thought first, last and only of baSe- ball.
 Qulte A Boy
 You could say he had Q onestraek mind. What he did have and does have IS, instead, an almost complete singleness Of purpose. He has been pitching baSeballs since his hand was big enough to hold them.
 His parents devoted themselves to him. They sheparded him and shielded him and he didn't let them down. He never swerved from the line he had marked out, not even after he had established himself as one of the remarkable players of all time. At l7, he was sensation, but apparently he never knew 1t.
 He stood fast in his determina- ton - to become the greatest of all pitchers. He never smoked, drank or let words of praise turn his head. Even when he wasn't working he was listening to the advice of older and wiser heads or practicing to polish up his base running, sliding, batting or fielding from his position in the box. He wasn't satisfied with less than perfection.
 Now the mighty arm which for three straight years has won more than 24 games-for a loose and careless ball club in one of the real- ly great one man shows of baseball --has been offered for service. That arm Is the most precious thing Eel Ter has.
 UnForgettable
 Yet 1t has been given cheerfully and with all the sincerity that won for this boy a nations heart and q professions respect. Sure, he prob- ably has a few regrets, we all have But in his case if war had not come 1t is almost certain the name of Bot Teller would have been remember ed as long as baseball is played.
 It is g nice thing for the other boys in America, many of them poorer, a few richer but hardly any more gifted, to know that one whC had everything gave everything without thinking of the years oi work that lay behind him or ths years of fame and fortune which lay ahead.
