An American League umpire nmed Jack Kerns had a phobia against calling games. No matter how dark it got, Kerns felt that a ball game was nine innings or more. One day when Kerns refused to call a game, the pitcher in des-peration huddled with his catcher and whispered, "Listen, you keep the ball in your mitt. I'll wind up and pretend to throw it. You pop it into your glove as though you'd caught it." There were two strikes on the batter. The pitcher went through his motions the catcher popped his mitt "Strike three and out!" bel-lowed Kerns. "Strike?" screamed the batter. "Why that ball was two feet out-side!"

At sour aetjfcdof Women Meet Death On Mountain Peak Cold Mad! it Impossible for Them to Cling to Perch. SANTA FE, N. M. Deaths of two mountain climbers were ascribed to biting cold which made it impos-sible for them to cling to an Ice-glaz- ed perch long enough for their guide to summon help. Bodies of the pair Miss Mildred Hartig, 29, of Evansville, Ind., and Miss Frances B. Krauss, 34, of Bal-timore were recovered on precipi-tous North Truchas peak, in the Sangre da Crlsto range north of here. The guide, Sam Martin of Truchas village, said attempts to rescue Miss Krauss, .who slipped In de scending the 13.275-foo- t mountain, led to the double tragedy. The accident happened as the women turned homeward on a week-end outing from the Los Alamos atomic project Both worked there as Atomic Energy commission sec-retaries. Martin said Miss Krauss lost her footing and injured her head and leg in a 250-fo-ot tumble. As the guide and Miss Hartig sought means to get her back on safe ground, she slid farther down the snow-covere- d slope. Both women were unable to climb back to safety, Martin related, and clutched a small rock above a ra-vine as he clambered up and around the peak, and descended to their horses for a rope. Thereafter, Martin said, while he tried vainly to reach them from above and below, the women wept and begged piteously for him to "please do something, we're freez-ing to death." Meanwhile, darkness and drop-ping temperature froze the moun-tainside glassy slick, and Martin was unable' to reach them. Near midnight, Martin went for help. State police, answering his summons, helped Martin find the broken bodies. CATHEDRAL WITHIN A CATHEDRAL . . .
