Fifteen year-old Pearlie Thomas,

his first Chronicle newsboys party

with about 200 other boys who are
feted by James Coward, circula-
ton manager. once a month.
Pearlie. who has never walked,
and who didn't know newsboys
could have so much fun. was sort
OF an "honored guest" for the boys
saw 10 it that he had a front row
seat from which to watch the en-
tertainment and all the ice cream
and cookies he could eat when re-
frcshments were served
This is how Pearlie was treated
at his first party:
A week before the event he was
notified that he would be the special
guest OF John Wood. At 1870, We'd
-HesdayT-W9ed- eaIied-feF Poarlie
and drove him TO Brewster Center.
At the door of the building he was
met by other newsboys who helped
to carry him up the stairs and into
the recreation room where his
wagon was placed well UP in front
where he could watch the enter
tainment
For over an hour he enjoyed the
singing Of Marjorie Bell the dane
ing OF Dardendela Holtzclaw. Dor
othy and Valencia Thigpin and
Bobbie Jeffries and the piano play
ing Of Clara Walker. Pearlie also
go a big kick out OF the antics and
wisecracks OF the. crowd OF news
boys.
When the refreshments were
served the boys treated Pearlie
royalty chats the way Chronicle
boys are) and when the party was
over they carefully carried him
down the stairs 10 the waiting auto
mobile for his return home.
Pearlie said he had the time OF
his life Gas you can see by the pic
ture elsewhere in this issue) and is
looking forward 10 the next monthly
get-together

NEW YORK. May 20.-We like
Joe Gordon too much TO predict
that he will lead the American
League in hitting this year. At the
moment he's up in the .340's and
almost daily he is corroborating
our staunch belief that he is the
greatest clutch hitter in the game.
It's unfair TO suggest that he
might top them all this year. It's
the one sure way of hexing the
guy. We once wrote that Cecil
Travis would lead the league in
hitting and he promptly went 19

out of the league itself If we
