BOSTON. Oct 1.-The Red Sox are back in town and these facts became known today:

 Joe Cronin will remain as field pilot of the club. Cronin and the players and coaches meet today to cut melon for additional services rendered during the season"
 Yawkey. himself. told baseball writer's that Williams, whose bat never get to the potent stage during the world series, was not to be sold tc another club.
 There isn't money enough around to buy him he stated.
 Owner Tom, telling of his plans to present the team members some extra cash, explained
 Tn no sense can this be called a hcnus. It's not a reward for them winning the psnnant or get ting into the world seric5.
 It's merely a desire to share with them a remarkably successful season in which we doubled our past top attendance figures.
 T had made up my mind to do this before the world series, win, lose or draw It still goes.
 The Red SoX are still the darlings of Boston baseball fans. A crowd of at least 300 met them last night as their special train pulled into Beantown.
 The biggest cheer was given tc Dom DiMaggio-still limping a little from the strained muscle he suffered in the last game It was Dom's double that tied up the sev- enth game
 Cries of Where's Ted We want Ted" arose after DiMaggio steppcd off the train. Williams. of course-was climbing down from another car and the crowd whooped after him Williams is still Bos- ten favorite, even though his ser ies hitting was on the anemic side. ttheaUg .iL.tcwereHr t$

Plenty seemed to be wrong ~

were concerned. But four wives
out of every hundred declareo .
their men faultless, and anotner Q

It's a safe bet those two groups

real lack of it is revealed when

AS rule, husbands are far more
loyal than are wives. A man may
find his wife hard to live with,

Yet it is a common thing for all
