patent lock would defy the efforts of any lockpicker in the world that he offered two hundred guineas to the man who could master it. ¢ The ehallenge' was taken up by a young American mechanic named Hobbs, who had come over to sce the Exhibition. : 2 He spent fourteen days devising and making tools with which to pick the lock and fifty-one hours actually at work pn it, finally suc- . ceeding in dispelling the fond dream of an "unpickable" lock. . His astonishing feat was the great event of the Exhibition. ' : It made him world-famens and established a new. era inthe pro- duction of locks and keys. Ever since Hobbs' feat there has been a race between locksmiths and lock-pickers for supremacy, and the locksmiths have undoubtedly .been winning, Britain once more makes the fin- "est and most unpickable locks in the world and a great trade is done in special orders. Britain's lock and key industry is centred in Wolverhampton and Willenhall -- a traditionally blacksmith centre. Top craftsmen earn up to thir- teen pounds a week and for new entrants to the trade a scven-year apprenticeship is required. . But a man is not considered an expert until he has served a further ten or twelve years. Some of the lock factories round Wolverhampton - employ only a master-workman .and his two or three apprentices, others boast as many as one hundred and fifty workers "(including "apprentices). The weekly production of locks in this district alone is not far short of half a million, and there - cannot be less than ten thousand distinct sizes and patterns. ~ You can still buy a lock and key for sixpence, or you may have good value- in a single lock ior about ten pounds. Scotland Yard is said to have in its possession nearly a ton of pick- locks and false "keys, taken from burglars and suspected persons. great teading lady--Youngest horse- woman ever to compete in the Richmond Royal Horse Show at Wimbleton, England, 21-month- old Jackie Hunt managed a smile as she lugged a saddle to the site of a special contest for ily ponies on leading. reins~As a tribute to her poise, no one made with the horse laugh when tiny Jackie failed to win first prize. Not Enough Millionaires There. just aren't enough million- aires in Canada to pay the taxes the government needs, Finance Minister " Abbott reminded a Socialist MP who complained about the new de- fense taxes in the House of Com- mons the other day. One would have thought that even TCI 'ers knew that by new. The late socialist goverment of Australia learned that lesson. In -ghat couitry they had-a quaint idea that the rich would be able to fur: nish all the taxes neckssary for their grand _schemes, But there weren't, enough of them and when they ran out of millionaires and everybody had to chip in and pay taxes, out went the socialist government. And in Great Britain gi are beginning fo learn fiat ésson, too, 1f all the accumulated wealth in this or any other country were con- fiscated by the government tomor- sow it would only be a matter of weeks until this was spent.

At this writ- ing it doesn't look like such a bad prediction at that, as Casey Sten- gel's pets are just one game out : of first place and showing signs of overtaking and pascang the amaz- ing Chicago White Sox. : * * ¥ Still, if anybody was rash enough 16 wager the rent money on our choice 'we would advise them to do a bit of hedging, as we say over at dear old Epsom Downs.

TWH this sudden Switch to he Red Sox, a tear we have coiisis- tently picked [ agamst and ice- "watered evEa--qwhen they looked like standouts? There's just re reason, and it's. a one-man reason. For the first time since he hit the big. time Ted Williuns shows signs of having shed "great I-am" mantel, and of becoming the truly outstanding star he always had the potentialities of being. If he has done that, and is playing for the {eam rather than for his press clip- pings, he could casily carry the Red Sox to the title. With the linc-up they have, it wouldn't take but a teeny mite of extra help. * . ' his Here are a few quotes from the AP description of a game against the White Sox which illustrate why we imagine that Williams has fin- ally taken a tumble to himself.

When he used to dig'in at the plate and try to-pull every pitch to right? No more. Chicago led 3-1 when Wil- liams .came up with one out in the third. He bunted--that's right-- bunted neatly down the unpro- tected "third base linc. A pass to 'Doerr and singles by Vollmer and Moss tied the score . .. 1t was still 3-3 when Williams came up with two out and Goodman on second in the fourth inning. Once_more he crossed "up .the boys with a double off the left-field scoreboard to break the tie." * . Jehind the seeming nnracle of Williams actually dehierately hat- ting to left lies a ctorv. It is five years since the Cleveland "yr Now Tndians pulled the "Boudreau shift" on Williams--the shift, widely cop- ied by other clubs, which_ pulls practically the whole defemrsive team over. to gight-- the shift which, ever since, has been taking hacks out of the -Williams batting ave rage and losing games for the Bos- ton team.

The letter was from nobody else but Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the daddy of them all--not even Wee Wille Keeler excepted--at "hitting them where they ain't." . 1 . Ty Cobb has Yong been an ad- mirer of Williams, bot _didn't-tyin® much of Ted's bull-hcaded 'insfes tence that the "Boudreau shift" was a challenge that could only be met by '&ntinuing hitting, 1O RIGHT. * * d "Of all the fellows 1've scen in baseball in the last twenty years," several months -- Cobb told a friend ago, "Williams is the only one | thought could break my record. But he is losing fifty points a vear on his batting average by refusing "to hit to left. It gives me a pain to think that $10,000 pitchers are making a- $100,000 hitter do what they want, If he'd do what I think he ought to do, he could become the first 450 hitfer in baceball his tory."
