Sparkling with gaiety and laugh- ter and breath-taking dancing from start to finish, The sly's The Limit" began its regular engagement at Warmers State theater today with Fred Astaire and Joan Leslie making delightful and unbeatable team
 The two favorites, here brought together for the first trnie, turn in grand performances in their engag- ingly romantic roles. Fred is an ex- Flying Tiger pilot on a brief leave before going into the Navy's air service, and enjoying himself in civilian attire during his few days in New York City. Joan is a photog- rapher for 8 picture mazagine, aIlx- ious to do something for the war effort and impatient of idle young men with no apparent purpose in life.
 Naturally when the two meet there are fireworks, for Joan doesn't approve of F'red's seeming lack of interest in the war. But his uncoIl- ventional methods intrigue her in- terest and a romance swiftly springs up, complicated by the fact that Joar's wealthy employer wants to marry her also but doesn't quite know how to go about it. Moreover, an attack of conscience cramps Fred's style when he realizes that a service pilot in wartime hasn't much to offer a girl who would like Q live husband.
 The outcome of 1t all is wrapped up in suspense and fun in delight full fashion, while Fred not only

Joe's plans for the All-Star game in Philadelphia. But the strat- egy was as plain as the nose on your face-if you had listened to him during the baseball season.
 That's one of the many good
 features about JOe-the more
 you listen, the more you find out about him. Ask him a ques- ton and you'll never get an answer. Let him talk and
 you'll learn plenty about the
 Tanks and his plans.
 After listening to the New York mentor and watching his moves for the past few months, it is easy to see what he plans to do in the World Series. He expects to beat the Cardinals through his pitchers!
 That strategy may surprise a lot of Mccarthy rooters. Most of the boys who follow baseball year in and year out across the country think of the Yankees as a hitting club-murderers' row, etc.
 But Mccarthy knows that it's going to take a lot of hitting to stop Spud Chandler, Ernie Bon- ham, Hank Borowy and Charley Wensloff, his probable starting pitchers. Back them up with Grandma" Johnny Murphy, At ley Donald and Jim Turner in
The Nome nugget., 1943-10-01

Wensloff will be challenging for the lead, and you can't ignore that stuff.
 In Murphy, the American League champs have one of the best relievers in the business. Ask Lefty Gomez, he knows. And J0hnny's record this year is the best since he came to Broadway. Add a rapidly im- proving Donald, an old relia- ble Turner and you have a bunch of pitchers who can really hurl that pill.
 So the Cardinals might just as well prepare now to face Chand- Ter, Bonham and Borowy in the first three games here with Johnny, Jim and Alley in reserve and just itching for a chance to get in there.
 How can the Yankees lose?

NEW YORK - Manager Joe Mccarthy of the Yankees is not a fellow to brag about what he is going to do. But I bet that if you could have peek into Marsa Joe's mind, you would find that he has been planning revenge on his 1942 conquerors since last October.
 Mccarthy is like that. He won't talk for publication be- cause he's afraid he might give one sports writer more than an- other. He wants to play fair with all of them. But deep down inside, Joe can aspire as much as the next fellow-and plan re- venge with the best of them.

the bull pen and you have a pitching staff par excellence.
 Only the other day President Ed Barrow of the Tanks said:
 we have a wealth of pitch ing material and the man who knows how to get the most out of them-McCarthy. We have not any worry in that depart ment."
 Lets look at the pitchers.
 Chandler is having the best year of his career. Bonham got off to bad start but the way he has been hurling them down the home stretch, his teammates say he'll more than toss those Card inals on their heels.
 Borowy looked like a big dis appointment. All of sudden he began to throw them where they can't see them and before you could say Joe, he had four shut outs to his credit. And that's pitching.
 Cool Cucumber
 Wensloff is one of those cool cucumbers. Mccarthy has never been one to start a freshman in the World Series but he may make exceptions in Charleys case, especially if the Tanks get the jump on their National Lea que foes.
