At the iched- ule 19 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. Whltper, Phil- adelphia pitcher, Is shot through the heart; lour Boston players are sent to the hospital by the wrecking of their taxi; Dlrkln, Chicago's star bat- ter, is poisoned, and Pietro, Chicago bat boy disappears: Scotter, St. Louis pitching ace, it poisoned; Rawlins, Chicago manager. Is hanged In the hotel room adjoining his own. When Penny, Detroit's star pitcher, refuses to play against the Blues, baseball's Crar calls a meeting of club owners. Terry Burke has had beats on most of thes= sensational murders for the Star and Detective Kelly at first sus- pects both him and Larry Doyle, the Blues' rookie shortstop. Claik tends Larry to Newark but he is soon sold to Boston and then to Washington. At Clark's suggestion, the owners ask Terry to help them uncover the mur- der gnng and he agrees. Larry Is in love with Frances Clark, Pop's pretty daughter, and Terry with Alice An- drew:. Big Boy Planer, Cleveland's all around star. Is poisoned and in- capacitated, but lives. Terry outlines his plans to Kelly, who has become his friend, before the crucial series betv/een the Blues and Washington. Terry fears Larry is marked for death. "Oh, I Bcc.

Althone suggested af- ter the Reynolds brothers were led away. There was a chorus of agreement. ''Y«u tell them." Terry turned to Kelly. "I'll tell them nothing; U was your Idea, fio on, now. Ood knows, you're not shy." There waa a chuckle at that and Terry plunged Into his 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 JuRt when It started. I guess It began to lurk In (he back of my mind in St. Louis. Craven and I were the only men who were In on Scotter'g death and yet Reynolds beat me with a atory to his Brooklyn pa- per. I didn't think about It very much at first, but 11 kept coming back at me. "When I called the preps box Mull- 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 morf? obvious that the person or persons planning these crimes was on the inside of the base- l)all game. The crime.s 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 (o Scotter, It was addre.sscd to his room numbrr iind all. Why was It put on? The person seiuling the puzzle w.mled it delivered without delay. I flidn't fall for a trap that was set for me In St. Ixiuls; Reynolds was the man who showed surprise when I re- joined them for a drink.

''I am naturally ticklish," she told the judge, "and my nerves cannot stand it. He tortures me like this because it leaves no marks." The judge, adjourning the case, sympathized with Frau Erna. told her a story that made her hair stand on end. "Five hundred years ago," he said, "there lived in SalaJbnrg a tailor; his name was Tobias Hacker, who tickled seven wives to death. "Unluckily, his eighth wife wasn't ticklish. Tobias dide in jail."

Kelly nodded agreement to the statement. "In Chicago Reynolds was with us after the game when we rode back to the hotel. 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 Rawlins the team was not tip to enuff. 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.

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. 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 DUh Apple Tapioca 2 1-2 cups tart apples, sliced 1-2 cup quick cooking tapioca 1 teaspoon salt 1-4 teaspoon mace .. ; . 8 tablespoons butter ''â- ^^'.â- ^â-  3 cups hot water "" '" 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly 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 common communicable disease of childhood. 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 has baffled scientists for Keneratioiis by tho use of a simple ink like stain called "nlgrosin." Mucous specimens from the nose or throat of measles victims and stained clearly showed the presence of the virus. May Perfect Vaccine PiH)fessor Ilroadhurst said the ;italn enabled doctors to detect measles sev- eral days before the appearance of tho rash â€" chief symptom by whi;-h the disease has been diagnosed up till now. Medical men expressed hope the discovery would enable them to deter- mine measles carriersâ€" person cany- ing the virus but thomsclvos iranuine to tho disease â€" and to perfect a pre- ventative vaccine. Dr. Proadhurst pointed out there were 7!ia,l55 cases of measles in the nation in 1!)3I as compared with 250.- 000 of chicken pox, second most com- mon disease.

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, v/ho 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 Prankish town which stood there in the days when Theodoric was King of the Ostrogoths. His finds hava 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 tr> 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 a num- ber of toilet sets, including articles required by woman to raalte herself attractive. Comprised In the sets was invariably a pair of pincers, which their feminine ow-ners, presumably us- ed for plucking their eyebrows. A Pagan Region AlthouKh this village existed from 500 to 700 A.D.. M. Vllminot's find In- dicate that this region had not yet been Christianized. In the 143 tombs which have been discovered, no trace of Christian symboli.-tm was found. On the contrary pagan relics were num- erous, including the centred circle, which was the emblem of the Sun Ood. also silver coins, stamped with the image of Solima. a regional divin- ity. There were also coins beariug the effigy of Theodoric. One Diseased Animal Dooms $60,000 Herd Orders were issued last week for the slaughter at Stowmarket, Kng- land. of some 300 cattle and 1.800 pigs. The bodies will be burned. The ruling resulted from discovery tliat one bullock in tho Stowmarket sale ward was infected with the dre.td foot and mouth disease. Tho animals arrived at Stownarket from various parts of the country. The doomed animals are valued at between ;>5S»,400 and $74,250. The slaughter will take several days. » I THE INVIGORATING DRINK OF REAL BEEF FLAVOUR |
