HELLO FOLKS: Did you
read the article in the Gazette
where a gentleman, a visitor in
our city, said he thought Wor-
cester people were inconsiderate,
ilnpolite and cold? / think the
gentleman is right. I have tried
to get on a bus when the men
will push to get in first so they
will be sure Of a seat. Have you
been on a bus when 1t is crowd
ed with high school boys and
girls? They never relinquish a
seat to an elderly person and
are loud and boisterous. Some
times I wonder what kind of
training they get at home. A lot
Is blamed on the war. Once you
have been taught a thing you
do not forget it so easily. When
was young etiquette was
taught in the homes. and the
school room. The salesgirls in
some of our stores act as if they
are doing customers favor by
waiting on them. A couple Of
years ago I saw hat in a store
window which took my fancy.
I went inside to purchase it. A
middle-aged saleswoman, who
was brushing OFF some hats,
looked up when l came in. I
approached her and stated what
| wanted. She quickly told me
The price of the hat, and then
continued her brushing and
made no effort to wait on me.
Another saleswoman who was in
the back of the store approach
ed me with a CHEEKY good morn
Ing which sounded like notes

The tournament for the cham.

South Fallsburg, NJ Y, has begur
with a field OF 20 players, not 2:

thony Santasiere, Walter Shipman
Larry Evans and Norman Whitaker
competed but did not place.
First-class players at South Falls.
burg who did not play in the oper
championship included AL Sandrir
of Chicago, Sol Rubinow of Phila
delphia and DR.. Joseph Platz and
George Shainswit of New York.

of New York, Franklin Howard OF
East Orange. N. j.: William James
of LIE Roy, Tex: Paul Poschel OF
Chicago and Anthony Suraci of New
Haven, Conn, are newcomers tc
national competition.
After seven rounds this group OF
seven players had scored just 10lz
points between them. A tourney for
the United States championship, in
which neither Reshevsky, Fine
Denker. HoroWitz, Kevitz nor Pinkus
appear, is very much like a per-
formance of Hamlet" in which not
only the Prince of Denmark, but
the King, Queen, Polonius, Orphelia
and Laertes as we'll have all van
ished from the dramatis personae.
Thus far the tourney has been 9
race between Isaac Kashdan, ar
outstanding figure in American
chess for the last two decades, ano
George Kramer. the young Brook
Ignite whose maturity of style wa.
SO impressive at Baltimore. Kash-
dan. with 5l2-12, had given up one
draw. and Kramer, with 6-1, two
Ulvestad of Seattle. with ST., was
within striking range, while Sandrir
and Steiner stood well with 5la-11:
each. Adams is evidently not in
his Baltimore form and at ga is
tied with Whitaker, who represents
this area.
The world championship prelimi-
narfes at Stockholm have resulted
in another one-sided triumph fol
Russian chess. Young David Bron-
stein won with 1872 points. The
Hungarian Laszlo Szabo took sec
ond with 1917, but the next four
places all went to the Russian con-
tingent: Boleslavsky with IL, Kotoy
with 111a, Lilienthal with IL and
Bondarevsky with at least 10. The
leading Russian masters are state
supported professionals. and travel
with their own trainers. They are
expected to get results and the
continuance of their privileges de-
pends upon their doing so.
The following game was played in
the Junior championship at Oak
Ridge between our interhigh cham
pion and 12-year-old prodigy from
Toronto, Canada. Church plays

BOSTON, Sept. 9.-The victory
smile just wouldn't come off the
big -jawed face of Red Sox Man
ager Joe Mccarthy today.
That's the big one we had to
win and now we've got to win
today's game" he remarked,
adding:
IT guess we showed those
Yankees they aren't the only
ones who can come from behind
to win"
He was accepting congratula-
tions over the thrilling 1916
triumph the Sox had hammered
last night over the New Workers
who had jumped of to four-run
flrst-inning lead.
The ability to get up off the
floor and punch out decision
was one of, many things the
Yankees were famous for in
McCarthy's days as manager OF
the New York club.
All the Mccarthy maulers were
joyful over the decision which
heightened their American
League lead to ~ games over
the second-place New Workers.
Righthander Joe Dobson, who
started for the Sox but eventually
was replaced by Earl johnson.
who was the winner, took the
blame for the Yankees 4-run
splurge in the first inning.
"I didn't have thing" he con-
fessed. II wasn't too sure Of my
self while was warming up.
But when the boys came back
with five runs for me in our first
inning just had to'pitch good
ball"
He did, too, until the seventh
when the first batter was safe on
an error and Joe lost his aplomb.
He was hit for a quick single and
q long fyout which fashioned a
run. After he gave up another
hit he was replaced by johnson.
II should have been taken out
then" Dobson emphasized. Joe
(McCarthy) was right in yank-
ing me-"
Earl emergency johnson, the
smiling lefthander who finished,
was his customary modest self.
What the heck" he said, II

hit might be good for a two-bag-
ger; up here the drive is caught.
Down there you might steal q
base; up here you're tagged out.
Down there you face one good
pitcher and three mediocre pitch
ers. Up here you come against
good pitcher every day.
These youngsters have to
learn the finer points. They have
to learn what each pitcher throws
and how he throws it. They
might go a month without seeing
the samespitcher twice. They're
improving, but it's going to take
time"
What has happened to First
Baseman Mickey Vernon's bat
ting power is mystery, and If
any one can give Joe the solution
he'll be grateful. Vernon, after
slugging out 1853 mark to lead
the league two years ago, has
been wallowing in a slump.

don't know. We've never been
able to figure out batting

Kuhel's main problem is re-
building. Using young players as
a nucelous and the veterans as
trading material he hopes to
come up with a winning combi-
nation next year.
But it takes time" he said,
