She tried to take her mind off the
situation by going TO a movie with
Enid. by reading, by taking her
camera and wandering around Gem

Then suddenly, one afternoon,
Tay told her he had tickets to a
boxing match at Madison Square

wires of the Morse operators
cracking next to them.
Then the main bout, and as the
principals came into the ring the
flash bulbs went off. One of them,
it seemed, went off right in Molla's
face and she heard the photogra-
pher cry, Thanks, Mr.. Whit

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

During a visit in Pompel sa"
. large brick oven which had been
used when the city was covered with
ashes 1853 years ago. When thiS
oven. and others like it, were dug
up, proofs were found that some
persons in Pompeii were baking
bread when the volcano Vesuvius
broke loose.
The Romans ground grain ana
made flour. They used yeast 10
make the dough rise when 1t was
baked. The loaves Of bread were
often of rounded shape, rather nat
on top and bottom.
Many kinds of grain have been
used for the making OF bread.
Wheat and rye are most popular,
but various other kinds are used.
Rice can be turned into -four and
there is even such thing as "po-
tato flour"
The Indians of this continent
made bread from corn long before
the whites arrived. They ground the
corn into meal and mixed the meal
with water. Then they heated the
dough and made the bread known
as corn pone."
Indian corn, or maize" was not
known in Europe until after the
time of Columbus. Since then it has
been planted in almost every coun-
try where 1t will grow well. Each
year the world produces enough corn

hand and the strangers were East
West. We thought East's double
was . little peculiar. Surely it
can't be sound to make a reopening
double consistently on a hand
with less than average high-card
strength.
"As 1t happened, we were set four
tricks for an Hotpoint penalty. I
wouldn't have cared If East had
held q stronger hand, but as 1t was
1t looked as though West had some
how tipped of his wife that he had
the hearts. What do you think7"
We think only that this hand
proves nothing of the sort. 1t Is
quite possible that West did give
some indication, but none was
needed II East and West are good
players. Most fine players would
reopen the bidding with q double
Just as the lady in your game
actually did.
East can be pretty sure that his
partner has at least four hearts,
for If North and South had nine
hearts betwewen them the bidding
would have taken a different course.
The bidding indicates also that
West has a fair hand, since the
North-South bidding is quite weak
and the strength must be some
where East knows also that spades
and diamonds cannot be brought
in and that If West has something
in clubs besides his assumed heart
strength the enemy will take quite
a beating. To sum up, East can
be pretty sure that his partner will
welcome double and that the
contract will be set at least one or
two tricks. What can be more nat
ural than to double to increase the
penalty?

Hart Satisfied.
on Prospects
Club Hitting Welt;
lnfield Post Filled

Never one to be pessimistic,
Coach Lee Hart of st. Mary's
took an encouraging outlook on
the Mountaineers' baseball hopes
today, following nearly a week
of outdoor drills.
Hart is faced with the task of
building a winning club out of a
crew which suffered what could
be termed in understatement, a
"disastrous" season last spring.
Biggest worry of Harris has been
the question of hitting power, but
after two nights of practise at
the plate, on Thursday and FRI
day, he appeared optimistic.
Outdoor drills yesterday were
Cancelled because of the weather.
1.-The boys are making a lot of
errors up there, but they're get
ting lot of wood, too. A lot Of
these kids played ball last sum-
mer and while softball isn't the
best thing in the world for a
baseball player, l think maybe
it's sharpened up their eyes a
bit.
Hitting will probably be one
of our principle worries, and If
we can do we'll at the plate, we
should have a club that will win
its share of games. ! don't think
we're going to be a doormat two
years in a row."
One of the infield positions
which had been causing Hart
some worry appears to be
smoothing out, as John Murphy
has taken over the second-base
post and seems to be working in
we'll. At the same time, the out
field, composed mostly of vet
Grams, is rounding into shape
rapidly.

WOMEN'S TOURNEY
Local women, however, are
most excited over the upcoming
doubles and singles tournament
at the Macomb Recreation which
will be the first women's tour
nament in the history of the city.
Mrs. James Erskine, tournament
manager, today expressed the
hope that at least 100 singles en-

newly-announced meet.
"There're approximately 200
women bowling in the five la
dies leagues in town and we'd
like to get at least half of them
in the tournament. Since this is
the first tournament for women
here, we may have difficulty get
ting that high a percentage, but
certainly whatever we get will
be a good start"
DOUBLE PRIZES
Details of the tournament re-
veal that an entry fee Of 81 per
bowler plus a bowling fee of 81
is being charged. Deadline for
entries in the tournament, to
start April 20, is at midnight on

Newsom's departure from the
Tigers, for whom he performed
sensationally in the 1910 champ
ionship season with 81 victories
against five defeats, had been
considered inevitable. B u c k
refused to accept q pay cut from
his reported $40, 900 of 194l to
a reported $4,000. The club
wouldn't bulge, and the weeks
went by without appeasement to
either side.
The pay cut for Newsom was
part of general salary slash
through the Tiger squad after
the Tigers come-down in the
1941 season, during which Buck
lost 20 games and won IL.
BASEBALL GYPSY
In going to Washington, the
veteran twirler strengthened his
position as one of baseball's
gypsies. The games historians
say that Newsom has played with
Is teams since he broke into
pro ball in 1923 with Raleigh.
He was with Washington once
before, and the Tigers secured
him from the st. Louis Browns
in the 12-player swap of 1889.
Finishing that season with De-
troit as a 20-game winner, he
then enjoyed his greatest year
in 1910, climaxed by world
series heroics.
There was talk here today that
Newsom might not stay long
with Washington. The Senators
were said to be hopeful of trad
ing him to the Browns for third
baseman Harland Cliff. If that
happens, Buck will be serving
the Browns for a third time. He
had pitched for them before 60
ing to Washington in 1888.
