Terry Burke is the only sports writer to give them a chance. He bets $10 at Tony Murallo's restaurant in the Broadway district, In the Blues' first game Whitper, the Philadelphia pitch. er, Is killed with a bullet. Both Burke and Larry Doyle, the Blues' rookle chortstop, for whom Clark's pretty daughter Frances had shown her pref. erence over Whitper, are suspected at first by Detective Kelly. It Is Burke who discovers it was Sid Stream, notorious gunman, who wrecked a taxi with a bullet through a tire and injured four Boston play- ers as the Blues are to open a series. Then Dirkin, Chicago star, drops dead after hitting a homer, from poison on a photograph needle fixed in the han- dle of his bat. Pictro, Chicago's bat boy, disappears. Clark sends Doyle to Newark but he is soon sold to Boston. When the Blues go to St. Louis, Scotter, the Rubes' star pitch: er, is found dead from a gas given off by a mysterious powder in the box with a jigsaw puzzle sent anony- moucly. Craven, a New York news- paper man who handled the puzzle, is also gassed but lives. Each time Burke has a beat on these sensational happenings and masked gunmen truss him up, question him and warn him he knows too much. When Inspector Dowell suggests that Doyle may have had an accomplice mail the puzzle, i Terry Qsks "What would be the point?" ~ "The boss wants to see you," the detective whispered. "I'll wait for ~~ you outside." In a few minutes Terry followed Kle'n and went with him to Inspector Dowell's oflice. "You can't be kept out of these things, can you?" Dowell said with a broad grin on his face, "It's my news nose," Terry replied with an answering grin. ROSOOEOIEIELELELIEEEELEDELLLODELLLLLLLEELELELLILLLLELE believe they'll hold him very long in Boston. Boston doesn't have a chance now to go anywhere and the _managers are looking for players of his caliber to bolster up weak teams." "Boston needs bolstering up." "Sure they do, but Rénz, the short- stop, will be back in the game with- in a week or two and they may put Doyle on first base then, but I doubt it. I'll bet you dough right now that he goes to Washington. They are coming up and they need a man like Doyle in the infield." "You're sure Doyle is okay?" "I'd stake my life on him." "Umm." Dowell opened a folio and ran through some papers, then handed a letter to Terry. "It's from Doyle," Terry said as he recognized the handwriting. He read: "Dear Scotter: "How are things in St, Louis? I want you to know how much your faith in me meant to me at a time when I needed encouragement. When Pop Clark sent em back to the minors; I felt way down and for a time feared that my career as a play- er was over. Your encouragement went a long way toward giving me what it takes to work against odds, I've been working like a dog and 1 like the Boston crowd, but. as Renz will soon be able to come back into the game, I'm wondering what will happen to me. I'd rather be with the Blues than any team I know and it isn't just Frances Clark either. They are a great outfit and the old man is a wonder even though he can't see me at present. 1 may make it yet. Let mec hear from you. } "I am constantly reading about you in the papers, to he such a popular idol? Are you still as quiet and shy as ever? What you need is a girl. Do you still read a lot end do jigsaws? " "I'm looking forward to spending some time with you when you come to Boston. Yours, _certificate. How does it feel 21-Yr.-Old Wants To Be 'Navigatrix' Daughter of Sea Captain Wrote Examinations to Obtain License ALMA, N.B.--Miss Mollie Kool looked forward today to being the first woman in Canada to obtain a mate's home trade passenger steam Mollie spent most of 'her '21 years aboard her father's auxili- ary schooner Jean K. sailing out of here to various Bay of Fundy ports. She has written her navigation exam- inations. - The girl, who hopes to become a "'navigatrix" is the daughter of a Dutch sea captain, Her father, Capt. Paul Kool, left his native Haarlem, in Holland, 26 years ago and establish- ed in this Bay of Fundy port. He was born on a vessel at sea and has followed ships and shipping almost all his life. Sailing with the Jean K in the holidays, Mollie found the time too short, and five years ago she left school and became a permanent member of the vessel's crew. Whenever her vessel put into St. John, the girl sailor vistted her friend Capt. Richard Pollock, the navigation instructor, It was from him that she learned the details of the sextant and chart.. "canvas sail, So while other girls took courses in home economics and pored over cook-books, Mollie was aboard the Jean K breasting the Fundy tides or burying her nose in a nautical alma- nad, = Not that Mollie is unfamiliar with the domestic arts. Her father says she can maaipulate a skillet with the best of them, and it is al' the same to her whether she is mending a run in a silk stocking or patching a tough She will spent this summer on the coaster plying between Grand Manan and St. Stephen, N.B. * Beautifying The J ob Shakespeare 'once asked, ironically, "What's in a name?" The.answer of today seems to be, "Everything", Samuel Fassler, commissioner of buildings in Manhatan, urged the other day that master plumbers adopt for themselves the new name of "sanitary engineer," so as to make a better impression on the public, And why not? The whole idea these days seems to be to beautify: your job with a fancy title. We have seen the press agent blossoming out as a. public relations counsel, the under- taken becomes a mortician, the hair dresser becomes a beautician and the movie actress becomes an artist, If the plumber wishes to become a sani- tary engineer, why shouldn't he?

Buying Our Wood - Scotland, which knows good value when it sees it, is buying more Can- adian timber than at any time in its history. The year 1935 saw the beginning of trade between that country and Canada for ready-made doors. It began with doors of Douglas fir, but "now includes some' white pine, and X has grown so rapidly that last year Canada gained by far the largest share of the Scottish trade in im- Their totals, through Glasgow and Leith, amounted to 67,- 760, or roughly 76 per cent. The principal competitors were the Unit- ed States and Sweden.

Loves Countryside It is generally believed that Bald- win will tender his resignation on Friday afternoon and turn over the responsibilities of office to Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of the ex- chequer. He has already delivered his valedictory to his constituents and indirectly to the Comaps. Blunt, rugegd, phlemgatic, Baldwin has endeared himself to the average Briton as few of his predecessors ever have done. A typical Englishinan, he has never made a secret of his love for the countryside. Free from . the worries of statesmansghip, his chfet delight is to mull over his speeches amid the flowerp, trees, and lakes, birds and livestock. During his' eventful premiership only the most urgént affairs of state have kept him from Chequers at the week-ends. And there could be no more fitting setting for his role as a country gentleman than this mellow Tudor mansion, hidden in the beech- clad Chiltern hills. Presented to Nation Chequers was presented to the na- tion in perpetuity in 1920 by Lord Lee of Fareham. The gift included provi. sion for a staff of servants, maiuten- of the gardens and grounds, mainten- ance and repairs. The only condition was that the house and its contents "should be preserved unchanged. The first prime minister to enjoy the charm of Chequers was David Lloyd George, who held his house- warming in Jan., 1921, It has since served Andrew Bonar Law, the Can- adian-born premier, Ramsay Macdon- ald and Baldwin. Chequers gets its name from an old association which now has its topical echo. An early holder of the estate was clerk to the exchequer under the reign of Henry II---and now the occu- pant is the first lord of the treasury. The mansion has a priceless collee- tion of antique furniture and paint- ings and interesting gallery of the Cromwellian relics, including swords and portraits, Cabinet Reshuffle It is generally agreed that the new 'prime minister, Neville Chamberlain will appoint.
