Roper conducted a great raid upon the vast herds on Thorpe's Montana ranches. Told that Jody had disappeared, he left his men and set out for the home of Lew Gordon. a man who was once his partner, but was now his enemy. Jody Gordon had tried to reconcile her father with Roper; falllnit, she set out with Shoshone WUce. one of Roper's men. to find him. Now Shoshone Wilce reached out to catch her bridle reins, and they stopped. She started to ask what was the matter, but checked her-sel- f. Wilce had become tensely watchful, and she saw that he was listening. After a moment or two of utter stillness, Wilce whispered "Wait a minute;" and pushed his horse slow-ly forward into the dark. For a lit-tle while as he moved away from her she could see the tall black sil-houette of his horse against the pale snow, but soon this blurred with the darkness and was lost. Growing impatient at last, and a little uneasy, Jody moved her pony ahead after Shoshone. There was a moment or two of panic, in which it seemed that she had lost him alto-gether in the dark; but her pony knew where the other was if she did not, and presently brought her alongside. Shoshone Wilce was sitting per-fectly motionless on his horse, star-ing ahead into a darkness to which the snow gave a curiously deceptive luminosity that did not aid the eye. "I don't like this so good." Sho-shone said. "What's the matter?" "No lights." They moved ahead a little now, Jody holding her pony beside that of Shoshone Wilce. Shoshone moved his horse forward twenty paces, and lowed herself to be led into the lit-tle cabin at which she had hoped to find Bill Roper. The shack in which she now found herself was s cramped makeshift. Intended only as a shelter for cow-boys, storm-caugh- t while riding the northern limits of the Fork Creek range. A single lantern hung from a roof pole: and now, by its yellow light the twe men studied her with an unconcealed amazement "By God," said the older of the two, "it's a girl, all right!" The other man, tall enough so that the door at his back looked small, was much the younger of the two. His face was prematurely hard-cu- t the face of a man who even in youth had learned an effectiveness In action upon which he could well rely. He spoke sharply. "Jim you know who this is? That's Lew Gordon's girl!" i "Good Lord Almighty! I believe ' you're right!" "It's her, sure enough!" "So you know me?" Jody said. "I seen you once in Ogallala, and another time in Bandera." The older man shifted his eyes to his partner. "Queerest turn of the cards," he said, "I ever seen In all my born days!" The younger man's voice was sharp and strained. "Jim, we got to get her out of here, and get her out quick!" The man called Jim appeared to consider intently, his eyes still on the other's face. "I ain't so sure," he said after a moment "You talk like a fool," the younger man snapped at his superior. "Look what we got! We got the law back of us. We got the most powerful cowman in the West back of us. We got one of the biggest rewards that's ever been hung up, right ready to drop into our hands. We've located Roper's main shebang, after work-ing on it for months. We got all the odds in the world in our fa-vorand here comes this girl and bogs the whole works!" "Just how do you figure she bogs it?" "We got every chance of nailing our man, right here, any hour now. But don't ever think we'll nail him without a hell of a sharp fight. Sup-pose this girl gets hurt in this fight or gets loose and loses herself, or runs out of luck some other way? The quicker we get her out of here " "Can't." "What's the reason we can't?"

Then sud-denly An inarticulate oath snarled In Shoshone's throat; he snatched at Jody's rein, whirling her pony. His straight up on its own horse came hind legs as he spun it at close quarters. "Get going!" he said between his teeth; and brought his romal down across her pony's flank in a snap-ping cut that made it plunge ahead. She heard the rip of steel on leather came out.

"She didn't come here by ac-cident," Leathers said with convic-tion, "any more than you or me. And she sure didn't come here to throw in with us." struck Jody with the A swift panic shock of a blow in the face. If Jim Leathers wished, he could hold bait with her here-liter- ally as which to draw the man whom it was his mission to kill. If Shoshone Wilce had got clear, and could reach Roper, Roper would certainly attack as soon as the best ponies of the raiders could bring him.

Vernon Lefty ame to the Yankees .nm on Frnnclseo 11 years ago at the tender age of 20. For the greater part of 10 years the thin left hander played one of the main roles In the big Yankee act For just one matter of detail, he contribut-ed six world series victories without taking a rap. But when spring , came te Florida Grantland this year and the Rice Yankee camp began warming up, there was more than passing doubt that Lefty would be hanging around much longer. In the losing cam-paign of 1940 the depressed left-hander had turned In only three win-ning games against three defeata. Most of his mates, Including Joe McCarthy, felt bad about this situa-tion since Gomel is not only ex-tremely popular all around, but also one of the gayer notes in a serious Yankee community. The one fellow who refused to back away from a rough fate, who refused also to sur-render bis mirth, was Lefty himself. Turning Bach "I came here In shape," Lefty said the first day be landed In ramp. "I'm going to get In still better shape and I'm going to stick. After all I'm only 30 years old. I won't be 31 until November. If Lefty Grove can keep on winning at 41, why should I be all through when I'm 10 years younger than he la?" All present cheered Lefty on and backed up his sentiments. "I had a bad arm and a bad side last season, but I'm O. K. now. I'd like to lay one bet anyway. I'll bet nobody on this club works harder." At this spot the Great Goof is still more than holding his own. Now and then he hears the "call of the wild," but not too often. He still has his share of stuff packed away in his portside portfolio and hopes to win his seventh world series start this coming fall. Lefty the Sage The Gomes sense of humor rarely departs, even under dark clouds. I asked blm what happened when he seemed to be holding up a game in a debate with the umpire. "It was this way," Gomez said. "The bases were full and there was LEFTY GOMEZ nobody out. Also, there was a tough hitter at bat So I just held the ball." " 'Go ahead and pitch,' the um-pire said. " 'That would be a foolish thing to do,' I answered. " 'As long as I hold this ball they can't hurt me. But who knows what will happen if I let it go.' " "What happened when you final-ly threw the ball," I asked. "I was right in the first place," Lefty said. Gomez should stick around sever-al more years, since he knows how to pitch. Form lasts a long time. Here's an example. Back around 1898 Findlay Douglas won the amateur goli championship of the United States. Forty-thre- e years later this last winterhe helped Byron Nelson gel a draw in one of th main Florida shows. The veteran Mr. Douglas still shows, with much pride, a letter re-ceived from Nelson to this effect "A good swing nrver gives out. The years can't touch It."

Whether It's in baseball, football, tennis, basketball you can pick your sport speed and drama are synonymous. It's the "fire ball," the "bullet pass," the "cannon ball serve," the "fast break" that bring the fans to their feet. Paradoxically, when we think of speed in competition we rarely think of one sport that's common to al-most every section of the country-autom- obile racing. Compared with baseball or football it has but few loyal fans, yet hundreds of thou-sands of speed-hungr- y persons thrill to dirt-trac- k speed demons at county and state fairs from coast to coast Speed became an Important sport-ing factor for the gasoline engine back In 1898 when the first record 1 effort to act up record time fo ne mile was made by one Cbasseloup l.aubat, In France, who drove a Jentaud at the then amaiing rate of 39.24 miles per hour. The good people of France were in a dither. That speed, In an automobile, was too great for the human anatomy to withstand. Hold Your Hats However, automobile racing real-ly became a sport one year later when the first competition took place over a course between Paris and Rouen, France. The same year a run was made from Paris to Bordeaux and return a total distance of 744 miles. The average speed was a resounding IS miles per hour. It remained for the former Chi-cago Times-Heral- d to pioneer racing in this country. The paper spon-sored a reliability run from the heart of the city to the suburbs and back-so- me 54 miles. The year was 1895 and the winner J. F. Duryea, who drove a car of his own design at the terrific speed of 7M miles per hour. That couldn't compare with a Tilden serve or a Feller fire ball, but It was burning up the road for an automobile of those days. As the number of cars increased and speeds became greater, there were more and more road races, each of longer distance and with more competitors. There was no rule book for these affairs only a verbal agreement among contestants. Auto racing lacked an official status until 1905, when Charles J. Glidden, a Cleveland millionaire, put up a trophy and a committee was organ-ized to frame rules to govern an annual road race. Along In 1907, when Frank Chance's Chicago Cubs were bat-tling it out with Detroit for the pen-nant and the forward pass was just becoming part of football, it was decided that road races were too dangerous for both drivers and spec-tators. Thus use of public roads for speed competition was aban-doned and the speedway came into Its own. A form of the road race remains today, however, according to Bar-ney Roos, chief engineer of Willys-Overlan- d Motors and long-tim-e auto racing fan. Economy and stamina events have replaced actual speed competitions. Conducted under con-trolled conditions and featuring stock cars, these runs are designed to test automobile performance, not to thrill spectators. Racing Capital For the fans, speed is still the turnstile spinner. The first motor speedway was built at Indianapolis. Success there led to construction of similar racing ovals In other parts of the country. But Indianapolis alone became a colossal success, and the gigantic structures that mushroomed up In New York and other large cities eventually were dismantled. Hoosierdom's racing capital was built In 1909, completed In 1910, and has a paid attendance capacity of approximately 200,000. The first international 500-mi-race was run in 1911 and the winner was Ray Harroun, who covered the distance in a Marmon at an average speed of 74.59 miles per hour. Floyd Davis and Mauri Rose captured the latest event in Rose's four-cylind- er Lencki Special at an average speed of 115.2 miles an hour. Although six. eight, 12 and even racing cars also compete in the event, four-cylind- Jobs have cap-tured 10 firsts in the last 25 years. And it Isn't out of place to men-tion the gent who has traveled faster on land than any other person in history. He Is John R. Cobb, Eng-lishman, who sent his Railton Red Lion over the salt flats of Bonneville, Utah, at 369.7 miles an hour. Which is exactly 362.2 miles an hour faster than Mr. Duryea's rec-ord of 1895.
