 We never saw Young during the period when, as a tall, TO- bust pitcher, he was in the pro cess of compiling his record of 511 victories, a mark which he always claimed was one shy of the actual total.
 We only knew Ihim in his later years. or after that great frame had become stopped and as gnarled as the cane he al ways carried.
 He was a familiar figure at any gathering of old-tinne dia mond s5ars, putting away at his curved stem pipe, talking a nip when 50 inclined. holding up his end of the conversation. whether the talk was &of the good old days Of current base ball activities.
 For he didn't dwell entirely in the past. He was interested in the youngsters, and we doubt if he missed a Little League World Series at Williamsport, Pa, where he would alertly follow the play of the tykes and sign autographs by the dozen.
 But he did love to talk about his glory days, and glory days they were. He had phenom- enal memory. and, like golf pro who can remember prac- tically every round he ever played. Young could recite de- tails of scores of his games.
 He didn't belittle current ball players bu's he was pug zled by the fact pitchers al- { ways were complaining of sorei arms. He just couldn't figure out why anyone should get a sore arm from throwing a basel oall.

Asks Transit
To Shell Out

A harrassed Capital Transit
Company found itself engaged on
another front recently as a
County lawyer continued his one
man fight against it.
Yesterday, George Spiegel, Sill
yer Spring attorney, filed a mo-
ton with the u. S. Court of APP
peals asking that funds gained
by etc in fare increase grant
ed in January, 1854 be put in a
special account for return to the
public.
Mr.. Spiegel proposes that pas
sengers be charged a few cents
less than the regular fare rate
until that fund is used up.
The Public Utility Commission
has estimated that the gain from
the increased fare amounts to
$494 ,564 annually.
The Court of Appeals had rul-
ed on July 9th that the commits
sion should review it's method of
determining the rate base which
allowed the transit company its
increase in "a.
1t is Mr. Spiegers opinion the
Commission could have denied
the increase at that time. "a con.
siderable part of present wage in
crease demanded by the union
could be absorbed without the
further fare raise insisted upon
by the transit company"
