As the sched. ule is played out the stars of the teams opposing the Blues are singled out for spectacular death on the play- ing field by shooting or mysterious poisoning, or are put out of commis. sion by serious injury. Whitper, Phil. adelphia pitcher, Is shot through the heart; tour Boston players are sent to the hospital by the wrecking of their taxi; Dirkin, Chicago's star bat. ter, is poisoned, and Pietro, Chicago bat boy disappears: Scotter, St. Louis pitching ace, is poisoned; Rawlins, Chicago manageér, Is hanged In the hotel room adjoining his own. When Penny, Detroit's star pitcher, refuses to play against the Blues, baseball's Czar calls a meeting of club owners. Terry Burke has had beats on most of these sensational murders for the Star and Detective Kelly at first sus- pects both him and Larry Doyle, the Clues' rookie shortstop. Clark sends Larry to Newark but he is soon sold - t> Boston and then to Washington, ft Clark's suggestion, the owners ask Terry to help them uncover the mur. Ger gang and he agrees. Larry is in love with Frances Clark, Pop's pretty daughter, and Terry with Alice An- drews. Big Boy Planer, Cleveland's all around star, Is poisoned and in. - capacitated, but lives. Terry outlines at the door. . tke crowd came through his plans to Kelly, who has become his friend, before the crucial series between the Blues and Washington. Terry fears Larry is marked for death, "Oh, I see. You don't know anything aktout his illness, do you?" "No." Just then there was a commotion "You can't go in!" a stern voice wag saying, "But I'm going in!" It was Alice and she sounded as if it would take the United States army to keep her out. Terry sprang to the door. An amazed policeman: on guard looked at the young couple for a moment as they fell into each other's arms and then turned away and tried to whistle unconcernedly. The game was over. The shouts of the open door. In a few moments Cainer, Pop, Larry, Frances and Althone, the own- er of the Washington Feds, came in." "You got them all right?" Pop asked dejectedly. "Yes, thanks to Burke," Kelly an- swered. . "And to think that one of my own men wag mixed up in jt!" Pop Clark sank info a chair. Francés went to him and stroked kis snow-white hair. "It's better this way, Dad," she said softly. One Question He put up a grizzled paw and pat- ted her hand. "One qiiestion before they take these m¢n away." Terry turned to "How long has Turner been "What is the matter with him?" "He said he thought he had a touch of summer complaint." "Then it was sudden and unexpect- ed. He hasn't complained before." "No. He even said he would try to play, but I didn't think it advisable. He thought it was something he had eaten, melons or something like that. He looked pretty green." "lI thought so. Thanks." Terry turned to the officers guarding the two men. 'Take them away." "Tell us how you ran this thing to earth, Burke," Althone suggested af- ter the Reynolds brothers were led away. "You tell them." Terry turned to Kelly. ' "I'll tell them nothing: it was your idea. Go on, now. God knows, you're not shy." There was a chuckle at that and Terry plunged into hig story, "At first I believed it was a gang of crooks operating in a big way. I believed that up-until the time Scotter was killed in St. Louis. The other murders had been smart, but that one was a little too good." "But when did you first begin to suspect Reynolds?" Larry asked. 'I don't know just when it started. I guess it began to lurk in the back of my mind in St. Louis. Craven and I were the only men who were in on Scotter's death and ya Reynolds beat me with a story to hi} Brooklyn pa- per. I didn't think ahowy it very much at first, but it kept me. > "When I called the ins answered me and he didn't know about Scotter, yet Reynolds had a beat on the story. As time wore on it became more and more obvious that the person or persons planning these crimes was on the inside of the base- ball game, The crimes denoted a keen understanding of the game and a knowledge that the ordinary person couldn't have. It was hard to give up the gang idea; however. "When the jigsaw puzzle was sent to Scotter, it was addressed to his room number and all. Why was it put on? The person sending the puzzle wanted it delivered without delay. I didn't fall for a trap that was set for me in St. Louls; Reynolds was the man who showed surprise when I re- joined them for a drink. He Knew the Odds "Early in the season Reynolds denied any knowledge of the odds be- ing given on the Blues, yet he was constantly at Murallo's. It was his hangout and you can't know those people without hearing something about. bets and betting. Most men know the odds; it's a part of the game, I didn't because I hadn't read Joe Veeder's column that day, but Craven told me what they were. None of these things were {important in themselves, but as 1 thought about them, they began to take on a new significance.

We talked over the Chi- cago situation pretty thoroughly and all agreed that Rawlins was the most important man left in the Chicago outfit. That day's game proved that 'without Rawling the team was not up to snuff. It was rather evident that the murderers had been thinking in terms of players and not managers. As soon as Rawlins' importance was pointed out to Reynolds, Rawlins was killed.

APPLES In the Menu One of the things that Canadians, living in foreign countries miss more than anything else, is the wonder- ful apples which are produced in this country, I can remember hearing _ one lady who had been in the in- terior of China for many years, de- scribing with what emotion she bit into a Canadian apple brought to her by some friends. The taste and smell of the apple were thrilling enough and eating"it also seemed to take her back in memory . to her homeland and renew all those ties which bind people to the country of their birth; eee Most of us have never been de- nied all the apples we could possibly eat and so we don't appreciate them enough nor include them often enough in our meals. Canada pro- duces almost every known variety of apple and in large quantities to ex- port to all the British dominions, Baskets: of this lovely and inexpen- sive fruit are on the markets now in quantities so use what you can in cooking and keep plenty for the fam- ily to munch by the fireside on win- ter evenings. ' Though it has never been proved that an apple a day will keep the doctor away, it is true that it won't bring him any oftener, and most cer- tainly won't drive the family away because Canadians just naturally love apples. The following recipes include some 'old stand-by apple recipes and some new uses: Deep Dish-Apple Tapioca 2 1-2 cups tart apples, sliced 1-2 cup quick cooking tapioca 1 teaspoon salt . : ., 1-4 teaspoon mace SEE 8 tablespoons butter ! 3 cups hot water : ' 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 cup light brown sugar, packed.

Woman Isolates Measles Virus Discovers It By Using Ink-Like Stain Successful insolation of the virus that causes measles has given science a fresh advantage in fighting the most of The virus was isolated for the first time by a woman, Professor Jean Broadhurst, Columbia University bac- teriologist, 'In "the journal of infectious dis. eases," she said she had solved the _problem that hag baffled scientists for generations by the use of a 'simple ink like stain called "nigrosin." Mucous specimens from the nose or "throat of measles victims and stained clearly showed the presence of the virus, : May Perfect Vaccine Professor Broadhurst said the stain enabled doctors to detect measles sev- eral days before the appearance of the rash -- chief symptom by which-the disease has been ~ diagnosed up till. now,. - Medical men axpressed hope the discovery would enable thein to deter- mine measles carriers--person carry- ing the virus but themselves fmmune to the disease -- and to perfect a pre- ventative vaccine. Dr. Broadhurst pointed out there were 799,455 cases of measles in the nation in 1934 ag compared with 256, 000 of chicken pox, second most com- mon disease, H. C.

Archaelogist Sees French Women Of Those Days Owned Jewels And Compacts. Merovingian women of 700 A.D. had what are today called beauty com- pacts, according to M, L. Vilminot, the school teacher of Sauville, in the Vos- ges region, France, who Practices ar- cheology in his spare time. When his duties permit, M. Vilmin- ot is to be found digging away in the fields about Sauville, excavating the ruins of a Frankish town which stood there in the days when Theodoric was King of the Ostrogoths. His finds have been so numerous and so significant that he has gathered them together in a Merovingian Museum which is con- stantly attracting visitors from far and near, Ladies No Different Then Judging by the number of jewels and feminine articles excavated, the ladies of 500 to 700 A.D. were no dif- ferent from those of 1937, M. Vilmin- ot concludes. Trinkets® of feminine adornment are numerous; {including buckles, belt clasps, necklaces and amber and glass, rings, amulets, need- les and combs made from bone. M. Vilminot has also discovered ainum- ber of toilet sets, including articles required by woman to make herself attractive. Comprised in the gets was invariably a pair of pincers, which their feminine owners, presumably us. ed for plucking their eyebrows. A Pagan Region Although this village existed. from 500 to 700 A.D., M. Vilminot's find in- dicate that this region had not yet been Christianized. In the 143 tombs which have been discovered, no trace of Christian symbolism wag-found. On the contrary pagan relics were num- erous, including the centred circle; 'Which! was the emblem of the = Sun God, also silver coins, stamped with the image of Solima, a regional divin- ity. There were also coins bearing the effigy of Theodorie. One Diseased Animal Dooms $60,000 H eird "Orders were issued last week for the slaughter at Stowmarket, Eng- land. of some 300 cattle and 1,800 pigs. The bodies will be burned.

The animals arrived. at Stowmarket: from various parts of the country. The doomed animals are valued at between $59,400 and $74,260.

Dr. Kettner, recently rety y 4 ed from Buenos Aires where he sented a petition, said to have b signed by 100,000 persons, to the Pan American Peace Conference. ! "An Injustice to Youth" 3 "Our civilization is savage because 4 there 1s no education for peace," said Dr. Kettner, who was formerly pro-- fesgor of languages in City College, in New York, : ; 'We do an injustice to youth by © not discriminating between instruc- tion and education, A school for char- [3 acter and peace education, which de- velops the creative capacities of the individual and fosters group harmony, lays the foundation for world peace," . he said. - Drive for Peace The need for a Secretary of Peace launches a program for neo-pacifism,"" ag Dr. Kettner calls it, which is op- posed to the "romantic pacifism" that wishes for peace but does nothing at - all practical to gain it. - "Peass cannot come just by disarm. ing nations. That would be' dangerous at present. It must come through edu- cation, and that will be a slow process. because the motive of youth must be changed from one of selfish pleasure- seeking to one of life controlled by in. telligence and character development, Pleasures need hot be given up, but the pleasure motive in human society, "wr The new education will develop con- structive interest in: each other." + Eight Obstacles Cited Dr. Kettner said that in his re. search work in the interest of peace he has found eight great obstacles v that hinder' ethical and social devel * opment, They are, he said, racial pre.
