If we can score first on him, he whipped. He never comes from be- hind to win.” The player's speech interested me. The pitcher he referred to is a mighty capable performer , but is regarded by opposing players as # front-runner, The front runner in baseball, or any other sport, is the athlete who shows to best advantage when he has the edge on the opposition. The belief in major league base- ball is that certain pitchers lose their’ effectiveness the moment the score is against them. When such a pitcher is selectea, rival players crowd him to the limit in an effort to put over one or more runs and thereby get the working margin on him. Pitchers of such a temperament are generally regarded as lacking courage. I have often wondered it such a belief is not wholly unde- served. ith in of of Does it require more courage to come from behind to win than to triumph by holding a slight teaa that is gained early in the contest, Whether it be baseball, golf or -any : : S other sport? Recently Walter Hagen, by win- ning the British open, established himself as one of the greatest, it not the greatest, competitive golfer.

Failure ‘to have done so would have resulted in a tie. It is golfing history that Hagen wolfers fear Hagen at all times regardless of his score, They feet thut he can do big things in-a pinch, and are never content until he has finished and the figures have counted him out. ~ Hagen is a fighter, never knows when he’s whipped, He keeps plug- ging away, doing his’ best even though it, is a physical impossibiity for him to win, . He simply refuses te quit. The player with the reputation for ceming from behind is credited with great courage. He is deserving of it. { ‘The player who can ouly do his ‘best when leading the field is usu- ally regarded as lacking the o'd fight, courage. Is such a player be- ing done an injustice? Is it more difficult to come from behind than to hold an) early advan- tage? Either way the mental and physical strain ealls for the best in a man. What do you think?

According to one ver ston ofan ancient legend it was a gorgeous, gold-bedecked- garment given to the wife of Hercules by a centaur who hated him. With it he gave the advice that if ever she found her husband's affection wan- ing she should persuade him to don the shirt, when his love. for her would return. Years passed, and Hercules, after the fickle fashion of mythical heroes, grew tired of his wife. She thereupon bethought herself of the centaur’s gift, which she begged her_husband to wear, says London Tit-Bits. He put it on, only to find that it burned and tortured him, and finally caused his death, for he built a great funeral pyre, laid himself upon it and bribed a friend to fire it rather than endure the torments of the shirt, which clung to his body and could not be re- moved, A centaur was a legendary crea- ture with the body of a horse and the arms and head of a man. ‘Therefore if we say of a horseman that he sits his horse like a cen- taur we mean that he rides so per- fectly that he’and the animal seem to be one, Indians’ Steam Bath The sweat bath has been used by the Sloux and other Indians of the Northwest for generations. The framework of the baih closet 1s made of limber willow sticks, over which are thrown blankets and skins anchored with heavy stones. In a hole in the center of the bath are white-hot stones, on which the bather splashes cold water to make steam. Periodically he drinks cold water to induce perspiration. In the meantime the bather lashes his body with a bundle of tightly- bound straw. After 30 minutes of this he runs to a stream and plunges into the cold water. For soap the In- dian uses fine mud at the bottom of the stream. A 20-minute sun- ning completes the semi-weekly bath, says Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance in the Mentor magazine, Sea TY Earth’s Central Core Studies of varying velocity ot earthquake tremors passing through the-interior of the globe led Pro- fessor Wiechert of Holland to con- clude that the earth consists of a central eore of fron or steel, about 5,500 miles in diameter, surrounded by a-stony shell nearly 1,000. miles im _ thickness. Between the outer soHd rind and the inner layer of rock covering the metallic core, he thinks there is a layer of liquid or plastic material a little less than 20 miles below the earth’s surface.

Curisty Expiains “The only way,” explains artist Christy, “to get a true national beauty is to blend the elements that now compose our country—Irish, Swedish, French, Italian, spian, Scotch, Dutch and Hungarian” And so the artists have selected Adrienne Lachamp, barn in China, daughter of a French diplomat and a Hungarian beauty, great-grand- daughter of a British sea captain and a Polish general, and American by adoption, as an approximation of what the composite. American girl ought to be. Little. Miss Lachamp, whose pret- ty head isn’t the least turned by ail the charming things people say of her, declares that America is made up of composites—girls, art, music, food and everything. .“And ees eet not natural?” she demands, with the accent which makes her use of our language a delight to the ear. “Americans demand the best and the best is made up of good from everything, LovetysLucerne “I have been particularly intere ested to note your music. In that you have borrowed from every country and then added your own touch to make it go. “You did that with a pretty thing they are singing in Paris this year, called ‘Lovely Lucerne’. It sounds as if it really were written about the beautiful Swiss lake, yet there’s something Parisian about it, and above all, an Americanness that gives it the twist that makes every- body want to sing it. “Yes, of a surety, to be an Amers ican composite, is to be a great success. I am grateful to the are tists who paid me this international compliment.” The teams will line up as follows: Mingt—Rush, ss; Hennessy, 1st basg; Chicken, 2nd base; Worner, Kennard, 3rd base; Amundson, Bowlby, lf; Morris, p; Parrish p-rf; Biske, Stenson, rf.
