| THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 1943 —_—_—_—_—_—— FOLLOWING THROUGH - By PEDRO AGUILAR. UNLESS U.S. By OSCAR KAHN AP Features. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 28.—Branch Rickey has said that Sam Breadon, president of the world champion St. Louis Cardinals, could do a Rip Van Winkle for five years and not have to worry a wink about his team. It was Rickey’s obvious impli- cation that he had left the Cardi- nals extremely well fortiifed with playing talent before he de- parted to become president of the Brooklyn Dodgers. That apparently is so, but still there’s no club executive in base- ball who wouldn’t fret a little ov- er the job of replacing ‘two stars like Enos Slaughter and Terry Moore — Breadon’s principal task with his 1943 team. Slaughter reported as an avia- tion cadet in the Army Air Corps after the world series, and Moore has become a_ civilian physical education instructor with the Army. Here’s another chapter in our review of baseball activities inj Key West since the late 1880's. On Sunday, April 30, 1939, two; Key West teams won both ends| of a doubleheader with Miami players at the Trumbo Field. The Seafood Grille nine defeat- ed the Miamians 6 to 3 in the) fitst game, and the Key West} Conchs took the second, 4 to 1.

Murdock followed. “Just say that Mr. Murdock would like to | see her. Tell her I won’t keep her long.” = He had been moving along the short corridor as he spoke and was now nearly to the main hall. The butler shrugged with his eye- brows and withdrew, and pres- ently Hestor appeared. “Why, Kent, how nice—” She stopped abruptly. seeing Fenner, and the smile faded. She looked questioningly from one ‘9 the other, and Murdock made the introduction. “Tve heard a lot about you,” by George Harmon Coxe Hestor ‘looked him up and down. “Is that why you came?” she 'm harboring a murderer?” Fenner was unimpressed. “It’s like this,” he said, and began to of business and Hestor’s story, but also a very timely and perti- : nent connection. ... tor’s mouth had tightened. “I'm sorry,” she said, “but I don’t care | to discuss it.
