"Color to me is standing back OF
the plate and watching that Joe Cor
don make plays that 1 know can't
be made. I've seen him kill off
more sure base hits than anyone
ever saw. On one play you'll find
him back of second base handling a
hot grOunder. On the next you'll
see him somewhere in short right
field killing another hit.
eff they want color why don't they
watch Joe DiMaggio play center
field and make hard plays look
easy? Or watch DiMaggio and Kel-
Ter at bat when the chips are DOWN."
Dickey on Color
I don't believe quiet, easy-going
Dickey knows how much true color
he has. But Bill knows the main
details of color, especially when he
is talking about the Yankees.
''Who has had the most color in
American sport?" he asked me.
"I'n tell you-Babe Ruth, Jack
Dempsey, Joe Louis, Bobby Jones,
Ty Cobb, Walter Haben and Bill
Tilden. But did you ever stop to
think each one of these was star
performer-one who had greater
skill than the other fellows had?
"You can't have color-true color
without exceptional skill. I still
say the Yankees are packed with
color on account of the different
things they can do as hitters, field
ers and pitchers. believe the true
baseball fan appreciates this. He
likes to see job well done game
after game, better than anyone else
can do it."
I'll string with Dickey in this
respect. A big part of color must
be based upon performance under
fire. I've never seen a colorful
punk in any game. There are no
colorful buffers in golf, no colorful
dubS in tennis, no colorful third
raters in boxing.
1t may be we have stressed color,
that was not directly hooked up
with outstanding ability, too much.
The Main Contest
There is now one highly interest
ing sporting scramble under way
that has nothing to do with titles,
pennants or championships. It con-
Germs a form of inner rivalry as to
which sport will contribute most in
the matter of winning the war.
Will needed war funds get greater
help from boxing, baseball, golf,
tennis, racing, football or what? Joe
Louis and Mike Jacobs sent boxing
spinning well ahead in their army
and navy relief shows-and they are
only warming up.
No one has to bother about the
side connected with the draft board.
''The draft board will take care
of that" one of their most important
members told me. "We take them
as we need them. And don't believe
that anyone is going to escape. AS
a matter of fact, most of those in
sport are not trying to escape"
Sports main job today is contrib |
uting to the war effort, which means.
in the main, cash for army, navy.
Red Cross and USO. And it isn't
going to be any pretty picture for
the sport that is dropping behind
in this respect.

Blasts Myth
Money Burns
Hole in Pockets

Propagandists who have been
saving that workers are rolling
in so much money that initiation
is threatened were given a stiff
Jolt in two reports put out this
week by the Department of La
Dor.
One disclosed that in mid Sep
tember it took earnings of $50
to $35 a week in nearly all large
cities of the country for a fam
lily of four to live at a bare
maintenance level"
Such a maintenance" budget,
the Department said, provides
for modest housing, IAN ade-
ouate diet at minimum cost" es-
sential clothing, movies once a
week, mo savings other than
life Insurance." and no automo-
bile.
In the same month, the aver
age earnings for all manufacture
ing workers, including those in
higher paid war industries and
including overtime pay, were
only $37.88 a week, or just a lit
tie above the maintenance level,
the Department declared.
Scores of industries had aver
age weekly pay of far less than
that. Non-durable goods plants,
which are mostly the monde
Tense fields, paid an average of
only $29.71 a week, or less than
the rock-bottom maintenance
figure.
In some of the industries, the
average fell below $40 a week.
This was the case in some of the
needle trades and cigar manu-
featuring, as well as service
fields such as hotels and general
merchandising.
Other industries in which av-
erage earnings were listed as be-
low the maintenance level are
lumber and timber basic pro-
ducts, $28.03 a week; furniture
and finished lumber products,
S2746; textiles and apparel, $24.

James Carey of Washington,

Importance Of economic planning

that labor must take an active

"Chaos will result if the more

Radio Effect On
People at Work

Wonder what effect radio has
on people at work.
Obviously the answer depends
on what kind Of work is being
done. IF housewife is dust
ing or shelling peas, she can do
her work as well with radio,
perhaps better.
Industrial workers doing rep
etitive operations increase their
production when they are furn-
ished with orchestral or band
music. They are slowed down
by singers and speakers because
they strain to hear the words.

had stateroom K to himself. He went directly there and, receiving no response to his knock, tried the door. It was locked.
 Tn annoyance he turned and in that moment another steward was coming from another cabin, bear- ing tray. Quite casually, Tal- colt said, "Oh, steward! MT. Hal sey left an envelope for me. Will you let me in please?"
 There could be nothing wrong. An artistocratic- looking gentleman in evening dress who was a little put out at finding a door locked. Unfortunate that one gentleman could be so forgetful of another; was that a banknote in the artisto- cratic gentleman's hand? It was.
 Talcott moved swiftly, survey ing the room. A regular bed here instead of hunks; Salsey'S bags lay open and empty in the rack beneath the bed. An open ward robe door swung gently with the motion of the ship, revealing neat ly-hung suits. On the bureau were personal articles military brushes, strapwatch whose hands pointed to nine o'clock; film cartridges, a small camera, toilet articles.
 Where was the most likely hid- ing place? Too bulky, that en- velope, for Halsey to carry 1t with him. Talcott searched the bureau, found nothing; ran his hand over the clothing in the wardrobe, found nothing; pulled out the bags beneath the bed, found nothing.
 He stood) scratching his head in vexation, and glared. It had to be somewhere. Beneath the pillow? No. Nor in the bed. Nor Wait minute! On a table magazines were piled in disorder. Somehow they didn't seem to lie just right: there was a bulge in the mdist of one that didn't belong there. Tal- colt crossed swiftly, shuffled the lmagazoines, and the envelope was in his hands.
 It was sealed, of course; gobs of red wax along the flap. He had no time for experiments in decep- tion; with Halsey's nail file he ripped the length of the envelope, and then stared incredulously.
 Paper, plain blank paper was in his hands. Not a mark deflled its white surface.
 He was going through 1t again, just to make sure, when he heard 6 noise at the door.

CHAPTER XVIII
HEROES OF DEMOCRACY
HENRY

At dinner Talcott found himself ,seated at the chief engineers table beside June Paterson. Two empty chairs were, he presumed, for Mac Doweli and Halsey. Professor Con- stantine, surrounded by books and Dill bottles, was alone at & table by the stairs and apparently obvious to his surroundings. Martha Swen- son had made a new acquaintance and, 1t seemed, conquest; the ships physician was potring his soul into her ear.
 Talcott slowed away food and thought about his wireless mes sage. From Lowell Byrd 1t was; three words only, "On the job," in response to his transcription of events. But it lifted a great burden from his mind a nd at the same time reminded him that he had work to do. How could he, iso- lated on this ship. accomplish any thing within the four days allotted to him before he must face ac- cusations in New York? Where could he begin?
 By paying court to June Pater- son? Hardly. She had become tantalizing desirable; had changed completely since the stormy hours on Abas. He was not blind to her glances, the mounting color beneath her translucent skin, the lingering pressure of her hand on his arm. But what could he do? With pri- son and possibly death facing him, what could he offer her?
 Halsey came down to dinner finally, and Talcott was im- measurably relieved. Halsey was pale and rather stiff, but his clear eyes and thoughtful manner told that whatever fight he had held with himself he must have won. He spoke quite civily to Talcott, occupied the chair on June Pater- sons left. Talcott, taking ad- vantage of the break, excused himself ot look agter Mcdowell. And as he lief tthe dining salon ne felt her disappointed eyes fol- low him.
 Mcdowell was doing as well as could be expected. This ale ways happens to me-" he groaned. ''I1l be like this until we get to New York. I donno why I let 'em talk me into it."
 You should get out into the air. This place is like a shoebox."
 You're telling me. Air. Well, maybe later I'll try 1t. Tell the skipper of this tub to decide which direction he wantsto to go-"

A man was there, gripping the door jambs to remain upright. An incredibly ugly man. There was not single hair to his head; he had nc eyebrows, no eyelasheS; he looked horribly, like some thing that had just been born. Yet he must have been all of 50. A flush extended over the full surface of his badness and his red trimmed little eyes were beady with the fright of discovery.
 "Well2" Talcott demanded.
 Excuse, please!"
 What the devil do you want?"
 My stateroom is the next - ] make mistake"
 DO you usually enter your stateroom on hands and knees?"
 A deeting baleful stare was his answer. And then, key in hand the hairless one groped to the ad- joining door and let himself in. Talcott watched long and thought fully. Certainly he had never seen this man before; impossible for memory to forget that ugly head ext something about him prodded memory. And the memory, what ever 1t might be, was not pleasant.
 Perhaps 1t was of no con- sequence. Talcott shrugged and gave noncommittal answer to Mac Dowell's moaned question. Brisk ly he sent of along the corridor, trying to shake the vision of that ugly, thing-like head from his mind. Halfway to the companions way he had to hold up to allow a steward to bring an armload of linen from a locker.
 On impulse he asked, "Who is that passenger with the complete ly bald headP"
 The steward drowned. Bald Oh, himI That's MT. Webber He's tailor in New York. His first vacation in twenty years, he said. We had him on the down trip.

On his vacation and still working see what I mean?"
 And that was that. Bald-head had been on the down trip and his stateroorn was different going back. Which might account fol his being in front of the wrong door, but 1t wouldn't account fol his trying to enter the room or hands and knees.
