ITALVANS PLEDGE [ AID TORED CROSS Gontinued Aid Assured in Letter From Mayor Paonessa A contribution of $100 to the American Red Cros for use in the relief of hurricane victims in Florida and Porto Rico was forwarded to- day to Treasurer Leon A. Sprague by Mayor Paonessa in behalf of the Order of fons of Italy. Accompanying the check, was the following letter: “Mr. Leon A. Sprague, Treas., “American Red Cross, “City. “Dear 8iri=— “The Order of Sons of Italy st their state convention, held in this city, considered the plight of the storm-stricken arcas of Florida and Porto Rico, and by unanimous vote of the delegates assembled set aside $100 as their contribution to the re. lief work being done by the Amer- ican Red Cross, “With this contribution go the well wishes of virtually the entire ltalian population of the atate of ‘onnecticut, since the Order of Sons f Italy embraces almost the entire population. It is their earnest hope that this contribution may in some way relieve the suffering in the stricken zone. . “The American Red Cross may fool assured of continued assistance in the worthy objectives it aeeks, from the Italians of this state, through thq Order of 8Sons of Italy. “Respectfully, “A. M. PAONESBA." ENGLISH REPORTER WRITES OF SERIES (Continued from First Page) operating room. * Stranger Explains Game All these and many other Knotty | points of difference between Ameri- can and English procedure were ex- plained to me by an- extremely courteous stranger who occupied the scat next to mine. i could not help wondering whether an American in similar circumstances at a ericket match at Lords would be as likely to find somebody as easily as I did, willing to explain the game to a person to whom he had not even been introduced. When, punctusl to the minute, play began and Waite Hoyt opened the bowling, as they say in England, T noticed that he did not take a long run before delivering the ball but had apparen‘ly to pitch from a fixed point without moving one of his feet. Astenished at Speed The dazzling speed, however, it acquired en route and the literally 8mazing manner with which Mr, Hoyt was able to make it curve eontrary to all thyme or reason, would petrify the average cricketer. Campus Caps | BOSTON CLOTHING STORE Union Made $1.50 Why Pay More? Men’s Fall TOP COATS and OVERCOATS $29.50 $50-00 The baseball pitc! hand does have one great advant- age as he is allowed to throw the ball with a curved elbow instead of bowling it with a straight overarm swing, The fact that one man con- tinued to pitch throughout the entire game without losing his deadliness, through swain and fatigue, or his head when the crowd “barracked” him, was surely a great achievement. Ruth Provides Climax ‘The climax of the game for me though was- when Babe Ruth, the darling of the baseball “demos,” came out to bat, It was not hard to see that here was a genuine artist in his profession, not to understand why he should receive an income larger than that of the president of the United States. As he trotted to the home plate like a great blood- hound, I marveled that such tiny ankles were able to support such a dinosauric upperstructure. The “fans” as they are called, ac- claimed their hero and his face in. dicated he would do his best not to disappoint them. The devastating roar of cheering which greeted his jwo stout drives into the uppermost reaches of the field proved that he had not broken faith. What a favourite Ruth would be with the English ericketing public! Here is somebody who really could put pew life and colour into an old game. How they would cheer as he drove ball after ball over houses and trees or through the windows of the clubhouse or smashed the face of the clock over the pavilion! ! Ruth might find it a little strange in the beginuing perhaps, having to hit balls which strike the ground first, as is almost invariably the case in cricket. On the other hand anybody who can hit a fast curving ball a hundred and fifty yards or more with a slippery looking rolling pin in baseball ought to stay in hit. ting “sixes” forever in cricket with a nice wide flat-faced bat. Admired Flelders Too The gathering and fielding of the ball both in the air and off the ground and the throwing in by the fieldsmen of both teams and the grace and incredible speed with which it was done excited one's greatest admiration. Certainly noth. ing like it is ever seen in such per- fection even in first class cricket. Wants Tea Served In fact, the crowds of eager in. formed spectators who dole out praise or blame to the players with absolute impartiality, their frantie enthusiasm at exciting moments, as well as the speed and efficiency of the game {tself make baseball a fascinating spectacle for an Eng- lishman to watch. On the other hand most Americans find cricket a rather slow and dull performance. It may be that the English take their pleasures sadly. Many go to a cricket match to talk about the weather and meet their friends. The ladies go more often than not to display thelr summer frocks (when it isn’t raining) against a bhecoming background of green turf and trees during the tea interval. Perhaps one may be permitted to make a suggestion. There were many lovely ladles at the Yankee Stadium yesterday.
