A ‘Mon years ago, maybe ten million, “The first tiger I ever killed was a gabertoothed tiger—dream tiger. I ‘was in an open space half-way be ‘tween the river and the forest where " J ilived. He came after me and I ran, ‘but my legs weren’t made for run- _ ping and I couldn't get to the trees fast enough and besides I was carry. fing a heavy wooden club, “I stopped and turned and the tiger jumped for me. His mouth was fat like a rattlesnake’ » “1 bit with the club, and then ‘1 ‘went down screeching, and he was a me pinning me there I thousand years. 1 thougiit) torn to pieces, but as & matter of fact, he to Dite: or law, Ei i wokd tp, and I bet I was five pounds lighter than when I had to big-game hunting for exactly the same reason that a duck takes to water: instinct. You know there's lots more to it than just the Killing. You've said more than once that the hunter fs armed to the teeth and takes no risks. “The hunter takes as few risks as he can, but he can’t duck out of all of them. If he keeps long enough ‘at the hunting, some animal will get ‘him or if it doesn’t the hunt will. He Tisks the most dreadful hardships and fevers. And if he can confine himself to members of the cat-family, he fs of good service to the com- munity in which he hunts.” “Yes,” she said, “1 understand bet- ter than | did. 1 have for some time. But now that you have seen the other side; nqw that Big Ben” (this was the name they bad given the male tiger) “comes to you of wn accord to be petted and depends 0p us for food and his clean cage, @on't you feel different?” “1 do about Big Ben,” said Bow- ers, and he was sincere. “1 have the hunting instinct too,” said Ivy. “But 1 couldn’t kill any- thing or see anything killed, I’d love to go bunting with a camera.” “| F YOU ever decide to try it,” sald Bowers, “especially on the dan- gerous animals, you will have to have a coverup man with a big bang-stick, and the man might as well be me. hadn't made} in the jungle of Southern India we le was “You have always had you wanted in this world, just about | when you wanted It, haven't you?” | “One of the lucky ones,” he ad- mitted. “Why? Am I as spoiled as | fens pep are allover me?" | "re Not as spoiled as you mi; be,” she said. shiveanee “Not by you, I'm not.” | He heard the whisper of a laugh, “But you ought to reform,” he | said, “You have been bad to me, You Just said so yourself. The best way to make up for that is to spoil me, if only a little.” } Ivy quoted from the Blake poem | in a caressing voice: “Tiger, tiger burning bright... ." For answer, Bowers returned an admirable imitation of a cat purring, and they both laughed. “How old are you anyway?” asked “Thirty-three.” “Why don’t you grow up?” } “I will,” he said, “if you'll promise to go on that camera-hunt. It would be a great test for both of us.” “A test of what? ~~ it ELL,” he said, “it we found at the end of three months or so were still friends, then we'd know that we would always get on together anywhere.” “Would that be worth finding out?” | “That,” he said, “would depend on you. Are you interested?” “T'd be a fool if I wasn’t. Once this job's done, I have no place to go, no one to turn to, Those things aren't easy to live with.” “You don’t have to worry about that,” said Bowers. “If the worst comes to the worst, if you won’t go camera-hunting with me, I'll see that you get back to America, and that there is the kind of job you want waiting for you. So although 1 have issued you @ polite invitation, you are under no compulsion what- r to accept it.” “I can’t help believing you,” she { said, “I think you’a do a lot for me with no strings attached.” “This trip,” said Bowers, “has been fun, but now that we have de- cided to be friends and stop sparring, it’s going to be more fun. I suppose you know that when | tell you ! like you a lot, I mean a lot more. I think: about you all the time, Will you be- Neve me if I tell you that it’s a new experience?” “First .you tell me,” she said lightly, “that you are thirty-three years old and then you want me to believe that this is the first time you ever felt in a certain way.” ~ “It is the first time,” said Bowers, “and | give you my word, that my feelings about any .young woman have been domestic. When I was | cleaning my guns and you were | dressmaking and we were close to “You know,” he went on hurriedly, | other and nobody saying anything “that isn’t a bad idea, After Singa- pore, let’s do it. We'll plan a trip into a country that neither of us Knows, I'l! only kill for food and to fave life. We'll take along an expert cameraman and make a movie. ‘There might be a piece of change in it. ' put up the capital and we'll) share the profits.” “It's fun to think about,” said Ivy. “It will be much more fun to do,” said Bowers, “especially now. Now that we have been frank withjeach | Other and we have got ‘ything | peeeet and froned out, How aboyt | She did not answer for dome md ) ments, hnd' Bowers continued: “1 don't suppose you know,” be said, “that | like you a lot.

The seore in the secand game was 4 to 1. The Cardinals are still 2 1-2 games behind the Giants, league-| leaders in the National loop, The Giants and the fourth- place Braves divided a double- header, New York shutting out} the Braves 8 to @ in the opener, and Boston taking. the.second con- test, 4 to 3. This was an 11-in- ning contest. ‘ The Chicago White Sox closed their season at home in dismal fashion, losing both ends of a doubleheader to Cleveland, A home run by Pete Susko in the ninth inning as darkness gathered gave Washington a 5 to 5 deadlock with the Athletics in the second game of a twin bill after Monte Weaver had outpitch- ed Ferritt Cain to win a 2 to 1 verdict over the Athletics in the opener, The Chicago Cubs trounced Pittsburgh 3 to 2 in the Pirates’ final home showing of the season. Chuck Klein lined out a homer for the Cubs in the seventh, scor- ing the winning run. The Dodgers and the Phillies split even in a long double-head- er, Curtis Davis receiving credit for his eightenth victory of the season when a triple with two on by Eddie Boland in the thirteenth inning of the first game gave the Phillies a 4 to.2 decision, Brook. lyn won the second, called on ac-| count of darkness after six and/ one-half innings, 7 to 2. Lady Luck frowned on the De- troit Tigers nad the New York Yankees retained their slim math- ematical chance to win the Amer- iean League pennant. The Browns beat the great Lyn- wood (Schoolboy) Rowe in opener, 4 to 2, but Mickey Coch- rane’s pennant-hungry crew came back to win the nighteap, 2 to 1. The Yanks retained their math- ematical chance of winning the American Legaue pennant when they defeated the Boston Red Sox in two hard-fought games, 1 to 0} FOLLOWING i | (By JOVE) { SOOmW seo SOO eSOSOCOSOOSLOLESCCOEEEES | ALL-STAR TEAM Daughtry and Mr. Gomez to say THROUGH ng mi ‘SENIOR LEAGUE -scosnapataae ADAMS DAIRY TEN WILL BAT- TLE WITH SIBILA STARS The Adams Dairy diamondball ten is scheduled to meet the field tonight. | and a good exhibition of this popu- lar sport is anticipated.
