Some very interesting and
exciting games were played
in the past few days, most not
ably among them, the Red
Sox versus the Yankees. Fans
everywhere had great inter
est in the outcome of the series
Of games which were sche-
duled between these two
teams. 1t was such as the Van
KEGS had only needed out the
Bosox in the last pennant race
and they contended that it
was an error on the part of the
management of the Bosox
rather than the good playing
of the Yankees. Therefore, the
Red Sox meant to retaliate in
every game this season.
The Red Sox opened the
first game with an unbelieve.
able lead over the Yanks. But
this was not to be continued
to the end Of the game as the
Yanks opened an attack on
their opponents in the eighth
inning which broke the power
Of the Red Sox. At the end Of
the game the score was is to
10 in favor Of the Yanks. This
was considered a very demors
izing defeat for the Red SoS
who were leading the YYanks
with a score of 9 to zero about
the fifth or sixth inning.
The Champions could not
hold the next game in their
favor and their opponents
clinched this one with a score
Of six to three. This revived
the spirit Of Mr.. Carthy's
tear and they opened the
third game with the deter.
mined effort to win again and
fans who listened to the game
could see nothing but victory
for them, However, the lead
obtained was soon overtaken
and in the fifth inning, the
ball game was a brand new
one. From there on the BOYS
from the Bronx took the lead
with the Red Sox trailing
closely behind. Then came the
smashing blow to Joe's team
for q second time in three
days-the eighth inning, and
the Yanzs scored seven hin

Etiquette Of DATING Easy to Learn
by Kite Turmoil

If you, like many. worry because
you have TOO few. if any, dates.
take heart. This is not proof that
you are unusually unpopular.
Surveys indicate that half Of all
teen-age boys seldom date Most
girls want more dates. Some go
all through high school and COL
lege with no dates at all. WHY?
Reasons for not dating are as
varied as the social skills which
can help build UP your date book.
Often, young boys are too shy
or self conscious to ask for the
dates which could be theirs for
the bidding. There are many
timid, unpopular girls who envy
the boys traditional social right
to be the first to make a date
move
If you. the boy, are held back by
the fear that you will not have
enough social knowledge to do
what is expected of you. stop wor-
rying about that. 1t is estimated
that one-f1fth of all boys admit
that they do not know what-all
they are supposed to do on dates,
to show the expected courtesies.
The other four-flfths of the boys
and all socially wise girls .
would assure you that you will not
be criticized for minor mistakes.
If you are friendly, considerate,
lively, natural, girls will not shun
or ridicule you for whatever you
have not learned. yet, about date
etiquette. The girl who does know
her social way around will be glad
to guide you easily, nobody no
ticing. 1t is natural for teen-age
girls to be older, in social expert
ence, than boys of about the same
age. If your girl is uncertain, too,
you can both follow others
ask or read up ahead, on custom
ary routineS then rely on
your own good judgment on what
ever seems to suit the situation.
That awkward feeling, especial
ly about dancing, can be smoothed
out with lessons and practice.
Long before you would dare ask a
prom queen for a single date, you
can tryout with many different
partners not on a date basis
at school, club, church and
home parties. You can ask your
sister or the girl next door for
some private coaching which will
improve her dancing. too.
For a girl. lack of dates is even
more disturbing because she is not
supposed to date-chase. However
she can invite a boy to a turn
about dance or to a mixed
group party at her house. The
dateless hostess should choose her
guest list thoughtfully. In addi-
ton to steadies, there should be

PVT. CoffeIt's Burial

Greater love hath no man than
this, that man lay down his life
for his friends"
These words from the Scriptures
had great meaning for President
Truman yesterday, for they were
spoken of a man who died in his
behalf.
Oscar Coffelt had sacrificed his
life that Mr.. Truman might live.
The 40-year-old White House
policeman fell, mortally wounded,
in the shower of bullets in front
Of Blair House last Wednesday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Truman sat at
the front of Fort Myer Chapel yes
terday during the services for Pvt.
Coffelt.
Near them was the flag -draped
casket of the policeman, and not
far away were Mrs. Coffelt and
the mother of the man who died
defending the President.
Outside, the United States Army
band played Nearer, My God, to
Thee" in the solemn tones which
marked it's performance through
out the ceremony.
Unusual Security Guard.
Mr.. and Mrs. Truman were
taken to Arlington Cemetery
under security measures seldom
equalled for a President.
Around Blair House. their tenn
porary home, police stood guard
behind a roped-off sidewalk until
the motorcade pushed off shortly
before II am.
Ahead of the presidential party
had gone other elements of the
funeral, including the body headed
by more than SO motorcycle po-
licemen.
Before the chapel scores of other
policemen stood in formation,
squads of Metropolitan and Park
police. In the area, and along
the route. soldiers with bayonets
guarded the President.
Dean John w. Suter of the
Washington Cathedral and 1t. Col.
Robert M. Homiston, Fort Myer
chaplain. spoke prayers for the
deceased and for Mr.. Truman.
At the conclusion of the service
the casket was wheeled out. Mr..
and Mrs. Truman followed. their
faces expressing profound sadness.
Moving Ceremony.
The cavalcade moved through
the autumnal atmosphere of vari-
colored leaves, tombStoneS OF
many hero marking the way.
The band played, quietly, feel
ingly. 1t played familiar hymns
until the grave was reached and
the family of the policeman, a
World War II veteran. formed
under the graves canopy.
There, too, were Mr.. and Mrs.
Truman, standing during the COM
initial services, and while Masons
added their rites.
A firing party honored Mr.. Cof-
felt with three voleys. Then there
were taps-close at hand, and with
q distant echo.
In the intense stiffness there
after, Mr.. and Mrs. Truman moved
to their car. The President had
