His battery mate is debating whether to follow his father’s advice and enter Spring- field College to study for a coach- ing career or join the professionai ranks. Both will graduate from Lynn English High School this June. News that the husky Hegan was the property of the Indians leaked out through the Minor League Bul- letin, which is published for the purpose of informing the magnates what sandlot players have made agreements to play for teams con- nected with organized ball. The pressure on Bessom and his fam- ily by the Cleveland management is likely to swing into line with his batterymate pal The two Junior Legionnaires will join the ever increasing number of players in organized ball who have come up from the sandlot ranks via American Legion tournaments. FAST GAME IS PULLED;RATHER EXTRAORDINARY Purchase of Black Pearl Out-fictions Wildest Melodrama By GEORGE TUCKER NEW YORK, May 11—This is| an incredible story. It is almost too melodramatic to be true. But it has been verified. And it hap- pened in New York, to real, live people. It is not just something an imaginative - fiction writer thought up: One day a young man presen'.ed‘ himself before the head of one of New York’s smartest jewelry houses. “I have here a very unusual pearl,” he said, “and I am ‘anxious to get another to match it, for my wife. I got this in India last September.” The jeweler took the pearl and examined it carefully. It was in- deed a curious stone. “I never saw one just like this,” the gem expert admitted. “Yes,” said the young man.| “That's why I want another to match it. My wife is crazy about it, and I want its twin for her birth- day.” Cardinals saw saw Cincinnat Again the specialist examined the pearl. It was black and in the cen- ter was a small crescent, just like| an eye. “I can’'t promise you any-| thing: but we’ll try. How much will you pay for it?"” “Oh, I don't know—I picked that up for a song, for $2,000. I'll go as \much as $5,000, if it's a duplicate of this one.” So the .young man gave his ad-| dress, his. references, and went away.

Briliant success. “We have it,” cried the jeweler into the trans- mitter. “Our agent in Cairo found the perfect match same weight, same crescent. It is the twin of the pearl you own.” The young man was frankly de- lighted. “Marvelous,” he exulted. Marvelous!
