order a breakfast tray from the
restaurant" she said irritably.
Tessie sat down, without waiting for
an invitation. Her legs were shaking
oddly.
Are you going away today"
Eyes, by an early train this after
noon, and I'm not half packed yet"
When her breakfast came up she ate
all there was of it and licked the plat
ter clean, and by way of payment for
Margot's hospitality, offered to help
her pack.
The subject of the christening cup
hadn't come up again, but Tessie was
considering it. After all, the original
owner had been as much Margot's
grandfather as hers, only she had come
by it straight from her own father,
his eldest son. She wondered if Mar
got would give her five pound note
for it. Goodness knows when she
would see Margot again, so now. if
ever, was the moment to negotiate a
deal.
1t was on the tip of her tongue to
initiate proceedings when Margot, now
hated and coated for her journey and
with her luggage all packed, was struck
with an idea.
I've just thought of something" she
said. Il don't suppose you would mind
sleeping in the maids room if I let
you stay here while I'm away, would
you?"
TesSie's heart quickened with hope
"Oh, no, wouldn't mind a Bit she
said. "But-but where would the maid
sleep?"
I'm letting her go in any case. But
I'm particular about my things and
meant to have the house service. al
though it's terribly expensive. I want
the place kept absolutely spic and span.
You wouldn't mind that, would you, in
return for your lodging?"
why no. said Tessie, with some
lack of enthusiasm.
"Of course I wouldn't expect you to
clean the windows" Margot said.
But I don't suppose, as you'll be
living here free, you would mind pay
ing to have them done :. There are
some odds and ends of food in the
refrigerator, and you're welcome to
them, but think I had better lock up
my store cupboard"
OF course Tessie was grateful, and
said so. 1t seemed almost too good to
be true Here she was, elegantly housed
in a beautiful warm apartment and
nothing really to worry about except
her food, though unfortunately her
wardrobe would need replenishing.
Margot leaned out of the taxi as
Tessie stood waving her goodbye.
Il suppose you lost grandfathers cup
when that place of yours was bombed"
she said petulantly. Il hope it will
be lesson to you for your selfishness. -
Tessie would have let her know that
the disputed treasure was safe, but
the driver started off just as she was

sic fondly imagined that her luck had
definitely changed.
One of the faithful amongst her re-
manning editors commissioned her TO
illustrate what would perhaps be the
last serial he would ever publish. Ii
wasn't a very long one and he beat
down the price little, but there were
10 illustrations in all and they brought
in the round sum of 10 pounds, which
was a life-saver to TesSie. While she
was at work on them, Margot,s flat
got little neglected.
And all day and all night there was
fire and destruction over the town,
and 'Errington Court lost an appre-
ciable percentage of its population. But
there were many who stayed on be-
cause they had to. amongst them Tes-
sic Appleby and Major Creagh.
Tessie lugged Marquis expensive di-
van cushions down TO the foyer every
night to sleep and carried them up
again, tagged and weary, when the All
Clear sounded at dawn. She bought
herself siren suit" and few other
necessary articles OF clothing. The
easiest thing to economic on, of course,
was food, and she lived on the ragged
edge of sustenance, but managed TO
keep alive and fairly healthy.

AAS SGObAOAA SuC4k as you can see any Saturday after noon in the Yale bowl during the football season. What better day could they pick than the one in which the hated Giants invade the sacred sod of Flatbush?
 Activity already is under way. The yells and cheers are being naimeographed, four cheer leaders have been appointed and 1t has been decided to make the knot- hole gang-a group of brass voiced youngsters-the nucleus of the cheering section. With characteris- tic sportsmanship and sense of fair play where the Giants are involved, the Brooklyn fans ! have decided pot to conf1ne their yells merely to applause for the beloved buns. There will be two kinds of cheers: Cal pro-Dodger and tb) anti-
 Terry Is Goat
 Considerable spade work already has been done on yells denouncing MT. William Harold Terry, man. ager of the Giants, who once ut- tered the deathless phrase, Are the Dodgers silly in the league?" and who has not been allowed to forget 1t for one minute. The first time Terry pokes a cautious head out of the Giants dugout he will be greeted with:
 Rowdy-dow-dow, Jack and Jill,
 "Raspberries for Memphis Bill
 "Boo-oo-oo-oo-ool"
 If Terry should SO far as to throw caution to the winds and take up position as third base coach, the cheering section will be ready to cut loose with:
 "Reiser, Reese and Lavagetto
 Give a cheer and make 1t beeg. Have Durocher ask Bill Terry: Are the Dodgers in the league? Team, team, team"
 Hope to Humble Hub"
 Carl Hubbell probably Is one of the most popular men in baseball ---so long as he stays out of Ebbets heldl. But If the veteran southpaw is SO unfortunate as to draw the pitching assignment for the Giants on the afternoon of August II, the Dodger fans will be ready for him: "Rub-a-dub-dub, blast old Hub,
 Send him to the showers, x Knock him silly, Dolf Camilli,
 Victory is ours"
 It is of1cially announced that an attempt will be made to conflne the cheering to the intervals between innings or during a crucial point in the game"
 That means the cheering will be continuous. So far as the Brooklyn fans are concerned, the only time a game isn't crucial is when the be- loved buns are leading, IA to o, and the visiting team has made two outs in the first half of the ninth.

BOSTON RED SoX RUMBLES

Boston, Mass, July 25 - Rapid Robert Teller, with 19 victories be- hind him. will take the mound in Fenway Park Saturday afternoon in an effort to hang up his 20th tri- tinph of the campaign. Teller, who has beaten the Sox three times this year = with the help of Lady Luck on two occasions - Is beginning to feel that the Fenway Park jinx which has hovered over him all these years is on its way out.
 Teller hasn't finished either of the two games he hurled at the Fens this year but he did Q neat job against the Sox in Cleveland on the last Western trip when he turned them back, / { to 1. And, only because his Nemesis, Jack Wilson, had one bad inning the second, was
 Robert able to get away with
 that one.
 Manager Joe Cronin is going to make conditions anything but pleasant for Robert when he losses his glove out there Saturday. The Skipper Is ready ing his ace, Dick Newsome, with II victories, for the Iowa farm boy and Dick has been found to be anything but a soft touch by opposing teams. Dick now has won his last four starts, and he has won one and lost one in two tits with the In- dians.

Lefty SeeI,s 200

| AcAty SCekS oUV
 Tn addition to the appearance of Teller on Saturday, this Cleveland series should produce some of the best baseball Boston fans have seen in some time. On Friday, which Is Ladies Day, the veteran Lefty Grove will gun for his So0th victory and on Sunday, young Tex Hughson will do the firing for the Sox in an effort to ring up his fourth triumph since his recall from Louisville on July 3.
 Number 300 has been very elusive for the old master, Grove, but Lefty is hopeful that Friday will see vic- tory coming his way. Tn his last two starts Grove ran into Buck New some and Johnny Rigney and neither of these gentlemen would take any part tn helping Nose to attain the goal of his life. Newsome shut out the Sox, 20, while Rigney beat Lefty 4-3 in 10 innings. But Grove feels thta anything which is worthwhile isn't handed out on a silver platter and he is going to make the Indians pay dearly when he faces them Friday.
 When Moe Berg, linguist, quiz star and well-read man,
 was put back on teh active list
 by Manager Joe Cronin last
 Saturday at St Louis because of
 injuries to Johnny Peacock and
 Frankie Pytlak, Scribes rushed
 to the record books to see just
 homw old Moe is. After getting
 the dope, they just shook their
 heads and didn't even charge
 Moe with being aged for like
 old wine, Moe improves with
 age.
 Moe has always been ready to
 step into the breach when the
 occasion calls for ti and whe-
 ther he has a layoff of two days
 or two months, he's a pretty
 fair country receiver. While an
 exhibition game doesn't pro-
 vide real test for ball player,
 there's no getting away from
 the fact that Moe, in the con-
 test in Indianapolis in June,
 locked like a two-year old, both
 afield and at the bat, and he
 was just as fresh after nine in-
 nings as he was at the start.
 But as Moe says himself:
 Moe is good"
 When Captain Jimmie Foxx of the Boston Red Sox slapped his tre- menodus line-drive homer of Johnny Rlgney into the centerfield stands at Fenway Park on Tuesday afternoon, he admitted that he really hit the ball good" Jimmie has been complaining all year that he hasn't been getting good piece of the ball, quite an admission from man who is hitting over 300 and leads his teammates in the runs- batted-in department.
 But Foxxy is really no different from his teammate. Teddy Williams or any other great slugger. Plenty Of home runs go sailing into the stands more through brute force that accurate timing and many times the hitter returns to the bench and says: Well, 1t was in there but I didn't get good piece of it."
 Williams runs onto that difficulty many times and only because of his great wrist action does the ball take oil. But, after hitting his memor- able smash in the all-Star game at Detroit, Ted the King was asked whether ae got ahold of the ball.
