That is good baseball. and base

functory efforts at larceny. In the
crash, Pofahl momentarily was on
top of Bloodworth. but the latter
whirledf picked up the Senator'S
second sacker. crashed him to the
mat and let him have a couple
for good luck.
Everything was moving TO
Bloodworth's liking when some al

action, and the best prospect OF
a fight the nations capital has had
since Jesse Jones slugged Eugene
Meyer was ruined clean and com.

his intention of posting a forfeit

Tigers Slide
In Standings

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Fists
flew and excitement ragged all over
Griffith Stadium last night, but
the Tigers slipped a notch toward
the second division as they bowed
to the humble Washington Sena-
tors in IL innings. a to 3.
The usually good-natured Jimmy
Bloodworth was the warrior OF
the Tigers last night. and Jimmy
Pofahl, who ran a remote second
in the scuffle, as the victim of his
wrath.
In the tenth inning, after
making his second hit of the game,
Bloodworth sailed forth to steal
second. Those who took slow mo-
ton pictures of the effort con-
tended that Jeems was out by at
least three steps, but in the
accepted manner of ball players
who don't believe in Quitting.
Bloodworth crashed into Pofahl
and tried TO knock the ball out
OF his hands.

Dudley will be back on familiar
ground at Oakland Hills this week
end In the 1887 National Open he
appeared TO be on his way to the
championship starting the final
nine holes but was stopped when
he took 6 on both the tenth and
eleventh.

the star golfers already here,
Hagen was in Rochester. n. Y. to-

illness of his 84-year-old father.

Corcoran and announce his team

an alluSion 10 Jack
Morland could make her feel that
way.
He moved in on her mind now
and kept her from composing the
letter TO Mayberry.
Jack Morland simply would not
lie. He held as full possession of
her now as he did the week before
he died. She could see him still

nodded. "but there are times
when you should think OF others
besides yourself. Mr.. Melville

THOUGHT ABOUT 1T
SO Grace went home and
thought about it. That is, she
started to think about it, but soon,
as usual, she was thinking about
Jack Morland.
She thought OF all the crazy,
wonderful things they had done
together.
She went TO juke box which
stood in the living room of her
apartment and put in 10 nickels
and sat down to think while the
juke box played. The box was a
gift from Jack.
He had bought il from a Joint
in Florida and expressed 1t home
when she told him she liked its
music.
The music brought Jack into tho
room with her. She could feel his
presence. She could hear his laugh
and the timbre of his voice.
She began to cry.
She was stu crying when she
went TO bed five hours later She

"All right, Jack" Grace said
in a tiny voice, "if you say So"

PRIVATE OFFICE

A third office. the smallest of
the three, was used by Mr.. Melville
when he wanted TO escape bores,
commune with himself or catch up
on sleep.
1t contained two big easy chairs,
a table and a couch.
Miss Talbot and Grace Morland
were working in their office one
day when George Melville. passing
through II, noticed the younger
woman for the first time.
Miss Talbot considered il re-
markable because Grace had been
working there only seven months.
"Mr. Melville really looked at
you today" Miss Talbot declared
in a tone of awe.
Grace. who was tipping a letter,
went on with her work.
There was appreciation in his
eyes" Miss Talbot went on.
He looked as though ne en-
joyed looking at YOU"
FINISHED HER LETTER
Grace finished her letter and
took the paper from the machine.

said, "that I'm fired. I'm sorry.

He could-and did-sell any

"Mr. Melville wants to dictate
some correspondence" she said
IN a bewildered tone.
He asked for you. It's the
first time in his life he ever
wanted TO dictate to any one
but me-"
Grace gathered up her pad and
pencil. There wasn't anything so
wonderful about that. she thought.
After all, she had been the
executive secretary 10 the head of
one Of tho nations largest cor

Verna Talbot was spinSter in

when her mother gave her her
first name right out OF a novel by
Ouida.
She was thin and wise and sharp.
in intellect and voice She re-
earded the Melville estate aS a
tremendous responsibility which
indeed il was. and George Melville,
the owner. as her spiritual son.
Her attitude was natural She
had been with The Estate, aS shel
always called and thought Of it'll
for AZ years.
She was as much part Of II as
any Of us assets. Of which there.
were $50 000.0O0 worth.
George Melville was the kind of
a product A wealthy and worldly
wise father, like John Melville, /
would evolve 10 handle a response
bility like SS0,00O,000.
George was serious, a little near
sighted. keen in matters Of bust
ness and philanthropy and woman
shy. In appearance he was tall
and slender, round-faced and very
quiet.
The Melville estate occupied a
suite of three offices. The main
one was a big room furnished like
a board OF directors meeting place.
1t was full of thick carpets,
heavy, expensive furniture and
whispers of large sums of money.
A slightly smaller office was fur
nished with two desks. two type
writers. two telephones and the
other appurtenances that go with
such a place. 1t was occupied by
Miss Talbot and Grace.
