BEHIND
HOME PLATE
By DOUG STEWART

The 1913 World Series produced
the usual quota of weird plays,
tough breaks and master minding-
such as Crosetti scoring from second
base while Cooper was hunting for
Lanier's wild pitch in the 9th inning
of the first game; Lindells Zine
bucking" plunge into Kurowski at
3rd base in the 9th inning of the
third game and Manager South
worth's decision to let Lanier pitch
to Bill Dickey Zone of the great
clutch hitters of all time), with Cor
don on End base, LIST base open and
Etten in the "hole," in the 4th in
ming of the fourth game-all of
which will provide the hot stove
league with chatter for weeks to
come
But as far as l am concerned, the
series can be summed up in one SEN
tence, "The Cards couldn't deliver
in the pinches." They had enough
runners left on base to win a dozen
ball games, but they just couldn't
push 'em across. Errors played a
big part in the result, but there
were errors on both teams. The
pitching was about the best seen in
a world series for many years, but
there was superb pitching on both
sides. The Yanks just produced
their hits when hits meant runs and
that was the story.

With baseball having day off last
Saturday, Football took the spot
light. While the Notre-Dame Michi-

was a natural. It's true that Navy
squeezed through by virtue of the
extra point after touchdown, (the
score was 14-13), but they were at
least one touchdown better. I be-
lieve that Navy has one of the best
teams in the country and 1 am go

In local football circles the week
end saw scrappy st. James School
eleven put up swell fight against
Randolph-Macon Academy The
local lads took on a much superior
eleven for their opening game and
although they were on the losing
end of an Is to 0 score,I they had
nothing to be ashamed of and with
a little more practice to iron out
some of the kinks, they are going to
be hard team to beat.
On Saturday they take on Landon
School, their first conference OPP
ponent, in Washington, D. c., and
here's hoping they come out on top.

games, swing into action on Satur-

tage, having already played three
games (they won two of them)
while the locals will be playing
their first game of the season.

Talking about football, I just
heard funny one that's too good to
keep. 1t appears that a group of
young ladies from st .Mary's School
were at game last Saturday and
when the teams left the field at the
end of the half, the girls, thinking
the game was over, headed for
home. We've heard of people walk
ing out on game in disgust be-
cause their side was taking a licking,
but that's the first time we've heard
of anyone leaving a game at the
half in the mistaken idea that it
was over.

CORNERS AND CANYONS
By Frank Edwards Henckel

NEW YORK.-Two New York
boys, II and Is, are in Jail awaiting
Indictment and trial on the charge
of murder. They are held for beat
ing and killing a fireman on sick
leave, whom they caught in cross
street on his way home in the night.
Their reward was ninety-six cents,
which they spent for beer.
The instance is one of many of
the kind in recent months-boys
who, as it has been brought out in
this case, have been permitted to go
their own ways, to find the com
panionship of the streets, to join
first in petty offenses, and then
finally to commit the supreme viola
ton, and be swiftly on the way to
the electric chair.
From what has gone before, much
of doubt is thrown on the claims of
those who have said that boy
growing up in New York has less
chance of becoming a criminal than
the boy in one of the smaller towns.
Statistics may be read variously. 1t
may be true, as claimed, that
smaller percentage of New York
boys get into troubles leading them
to the courts; but it is probably
equally true that those who do go
astray will get into more serious
trouble than those in other environ
ments.
There are more churches in New
York than anywhere else in the
land. There are more of all kinds
of institutions devoted to the guild
ance of youth. But there are more
temptations. There are more gangs.
And the gang in New York is a
gang in which crime is crime.
Not long ago boy went up the
river TO Sing Sing, occupied the
death cell there for two months,
and then got his punishment COM
muted to imprisonment for life. The
action of the pardon board in his
behalf was taken because it had
been shown by his counsel that he
had never known what it was to
have any moral training at home.
He had had no home life of any
kind, except, for few short years
before he left the tenement roof, to
find his so-called home a place in
which to sleep. So it was no marvel

Invention on Shooting Oil
Wells Led to 10000 Suits

The invention of the Roberts Tor
pedo in 1866 was followed by the
greatest patent litigation in Amer
lean history, says Golfers. Before
the legality of it's patent was up
held by the United States Supreme
court in 1880, this device for shoot
ing oil wells was so widely in
fringed upon that more than 10000
suits and countersuits were filed,
all those brought to a decision
being won by the inventor.

Arthur, telling her what swell
girl her kid sister was.
''Kelly's 81 boat was right on
time" said Bulkeley. I'VE in the
Al boat picked up our passengers
at Corregidor and met him and the
other two boys at the turning light
just outside the mine field at seven
o'clock to the minute. We had twen-
ty passengers in all in our four
boats. With me in the Al boat were
General and Mrs. Macarthur, their
little boy, and his nurse and a few
generals. Kelly in the "a boat had,
to start with, Admiral Rockwell,
two cploneis, and an army aviation
captain. When one Of the other boats
later broke down, Kelly picked UP
a few more generals.
'But rank made no difference.
Washington had ordered Macarthur
to bring out the most valuable Of
his men, and SO they were all spe-
cialists-there was even staff ser
geant, who was technician, along
with us, while thirty-odd generals
were left behind on Bataan.
eve started out single file, my
boat as flagship setting the pace
for the other three. First we went
fifty miles straight out to sea in
the deepening twilight. We'd hoped
to get out unnoticed, but suddenly
we saw a light glimmer and glow
on one of the Japanese islands.
1t was a signal fire-warning to the
mainland that they'd seen us pass.
If they had seen it on Luzon, that
meant trouble for us-maybe bomb
ers at dawn, maybe destroyers later
on in the day. BY eleven o'clock
we made out the outline of Apo Is
land against the stars (there was
no rnoon) and checked our naviqa-
ton, which we were doing entirely
by compass and chart. Macarthur
and General Sutherland were
pleased with the way it was going.n
