The pay wai only enough encourage him to continue. CHAPTER XIX have been convicted and sentenced 10 aeatn or long terms of penitentiary peni-tentiary labor. But here is proof of thousands willing to betray their own fighting mates for some form of profit. This Is something far beyond throwing a baseball or a basketball game. Or a football game. It is the ultimate In Infamy. So If this can happen to our army along; the fighting fight-ing front, with over 12,000 betrayals, betray-als, some far lower than any Bene dict Arnold, yon can see what can happen to sport. The Brooklyn college basketball matter was only a small part of the picture. We all know that the average kid the average college student is honest We also know that we have had crooked governors, crooked senators and crooked congressmen. con-gressmen. But politics is accepted as at least a partly crooked game. Sport isn't Must Be on Guard Once they blast the foundations of complete honesty from under sport, the entire structure starts to cave in. We have had too much dishonesty, entirely too much crookedness, entirely too much cowardice cow-ardice in politics. Everyone knows that. But sport can't be "almost clean." It can never reach the low er level of politics, and still get. by. It is for this reason that sport must be on guard through the remainder of the present war and through the postwar period on beyond. It isn't enough to say that most athletes are honest. This applies to baseball, football, basketball and boxing. In another way it applies to racing. We roust go beyond this rating;. In 1919, there were over 400 honest ballplayers yet there were eight players who came near wrecking the game. Judge Landis and Babe Ruth saved it. The professional gambler, as a rule, is smart, smooth and intelligent intelli-gent although there are exceptions. He knows human nature and its weaknesses. And he has cash to offer. Above all else, the pro gambler gam-bler wants the winning edge, the winning percentage, for his money. Too many of these would betray the souls of their mothers for a winning bet Once again I honestly believe this applies to the minority. But the minority, with the playing minority in sport, can wreck any game whose main bulwark must be honest effort Unless there is the strictest sort of control shown by sporting leaders lead-ers Including coaches, college presidents and Iron-hearted commissioners, commis-sioners, sport can wallow into more crookedness than it has ever known. To me, it isn't enough to say that most of these athletes are honest Most people are honest But there is still many a crook around who can at least come close to wrecking the whole works. Let's not be too gullible again. Who would have believed be-lieved in 1919 that almost an entire ban club could be bought at a cheap price to throw a world series-including two potential hall-of-fame stars? Who could have believed that 12,000 soldiers in France would betray their fighting mates at the front Or who could have believed that a Brooklyn basketball team-one team-one of Brooklyn's prides-would have sold out to cheap gambkrs? The gamblers hardly count They were barely ducking Sing S.ng anyway. any-way. But the five kids are wrecked beyond all help. Their lives are over in any decent community. Sport today needs keen, alert honest and fearless leaders-more than it ever needed them before, ror there is a tidal wave of dishonesty dis-honesty on its way. no matter what the optimists may tell you.

I waved but he didn't see me. I expect his eyes are failing." They had a farmers' telephone put in and when it would ring, Phebe would dry her hands and softly take off the receiver. Pa could never quite bring himself to eavesdrop. But it was all right for Phebe to do that. Womenfolks were different. She'd tell him the news: "Jim Vert's broken the trip on his wheat drill and is comin' to town to see if he can get another. He may have to telegraph to Kansas City." "He never keeps his machinery under cover!" Pa was dead against anybody who neglected their machinery. ma-chinery. "Mattie Knabb's folks are comin' in from Nebraska." "Did you learn when they'd get here?'' "She don't know. She just got the card yesterday." "They'll probably have trouble crossing the Platte. I see it's on a rampage." He would go down to the bank to see what stock reports had been chalked up on the blackboard. This was a meeting place for the other retired farmers; they would stand there studying the board and discussing discuss-ing the perplexing ups and downs of the market Heavy hogs were off; light ones up. That was just like the commission houses. Want one thing one week, next week you couldn't give it to 'em. "How many steers you feedin', Amos?"- "Eighty-two now." "When do you calc'late to turn em?" "The market is so tricky I think I'll feed 'em a while yet." "Hog Baker brought in a load of shoats this morning." They would nod respectfully, for Hog Baker was the best hog farmer in the country. People paid attention atten-tion to him. Sometimes other farmers farm-ers would ship just because he did. Nobody could ask for a finer compliment compli-ment than that. Hog Baker knew he was the best hog farmer, and Saturdays Sat-urdays would swagger down the street in his old slouch hat. When he stepped over to the edge of the sidewalk to talk for a moment, he'd soon have a crowd around him. Maybe May-be he'd drop something. Pa would go to Tom Wadley's; lots of farm news there. Maybe somebody he knew would be in. Well (he'd say to Tom) times are chang-in chang-in "What do you think of this havin' a county agent to tell people how to farm?" "I've always been wantin' to find an easy way," Pa would say and they'd laugh. "You've made quite a success of farmin', Amos." Pa would straighten up a little. "I've managed to keep out of the poorhouse." "You've been more liberal in your giving than most men." "A person ought to do what he can," Pa would say, pleased in spite of himself. Many, of the retired farmers loafed in the courthouse yard, lounging loung-ing on the benches, using the courthouse court-house toilet facilities, watching what teams came in. But Pa wasn't one of them. Even now he couldn't loaf. Must keep busy. "Want to run out to the farm?" Pa would ask Phebe. They would have an early dinner (eleven-thirty) then Pa would hitch up and they would start Phebe would stay at the house, talking to he tenant's wife, while Pa walked cross the pasture scooping up milkweeds milk-weeds and kicking out Russian this-Jes. this-Jes. He saw every detail in the vast and complicated process of farming. farm-ing. He would head toward the tenant ten-ant Did he have warbles? Pa would ask. How about rock salt? Pa and Phebe would get in the buggy and start slowly back to town. I became engaged ... did I dare undertake marriage when I never knew from one month to another how much I would make? As a boy I had listened to an entrancing en-trancing train whistle at night, coming com-ing in over the sloughs, and wished with all my heart I could get on a train and go somewhere.

I would try to go around the world! It is truly amazing what a person can do when he has a goal It seems to work out this way; if you establish estab-lish a goal and make a start, you've really done the hardest part I made a start by soliciting several magazines maga-zines to send me around the world writing for them. One editor lpoked at me sternly. "That's a fine idea. It must be a fine one, or so many people wouldn't present it." I kept on until I got Leslie's Weekly Week-ly to agree to send me. When the letter of agreement was drawn up, I found that It bound Leslie's Weekly Week-ly as loosely as a twine string around a shorthorn. I was put down by this, not yet having fathomed the ways of magazines, but I was so eager to go that I entered only a mild protest pro-test Then I did something I'm still astonished at I went to a number of advertising companies and announced an-nounced that I was going on a trip around the world and that I would be pleased to represent their clients. My youth, or enthusiasm, or eagerness, eager-ness, or something I'm not sure what it was made them sign up. I was to smoke a certain kind of pipe tobacco, use a certain kind of toothpaste, tooth-paste, and chew just one kind of gum. I still blink as I remember all the things I was to do. When I got back I was to write of my experiences experi-ences going around the world smoking, smok-ing, chewing, and tooth-cleaning. Encouraged by my success (so far), I hit upon another bold idea. I would take motion pictures! I singled out the Universal Film Com- MM "That's a fine idea." pany as being susceptible, and tripped gaily in. Here again my tremendous confidence must have been on my side, for I was passed along until I came before Carl Laemmle himself. He was a short man, a German Jew, with a wide space between two upper middle teeth which seemed to make his accent ac-cent more pronounced. He had a kindly, almost fatherly, attitude; in fact his office 'name was "Uncle Carl." He hesitated when I told him my fine idea. "How you goin' to make pichers when you don't take photographs?" he asked. "You'll have to send a cameraman with me," I announced. "I'm going to direct the pictures." He studied me, and I knew my fate was being weighed. "How many pictures have you direct'?" "I haven't directed any yet," I said, sensing that victory was coming com-ing my way. "But I can do it all right" He looked at me, meditating. . . . It was finally agreed that I was to see him in Hollywood, but when I arrived there I found ten thousand others were also trying to see him, for these were the wild, gold-strike days of motion pictures. I shadowed him, not only at his office but also on the lot every time the poor man left his door. But .all the other pursuers pur-suers were after him, too, some of them far more bloodthirsty than I was. One day in his office, I happened hap-pened to overhear in a conversation that he was going to the bank. I waited to pounce on him, for I had by this time grown desperate, but he used an unexpected side door. I started across the lot feeling everything every-thing was lost, then spied him getting get-ting into his big, open-topped car. I dashed for him, leaped on the running run-ning board of the moving car and plopped down beside the astonished man. For a moment he did not know me and seemed to think he was the victim of some wild plot . I talked as I had never before talked in my life. By the time we reached the bank he had said Yes. His publicity department had widely wide-ly publicized something it termed "Laemmle Luck." and I'm sure the old gentleman believed he had it I hoped to God he was right A cameraman was assigned and I started out with my smoking tobacco, tobac-co, chewing gum and toothpaste to go around the world. I found a Universal Uni-versal film company working in Honolulu, Hon-olulu, making what they called "au-the"if" "au-the"if" South Seas pictures nd Well -Fitting Afternoon Frock dd Bolero to Sun -Back Dress learned a little about handling film and chemicals and drying racks in the subtropics. The first place I photographed, after Honolulu, was Japan; and the first "shot" (I was learning fast) was a silkworm factory. The Japanese Jap-anese Government sent three men and they never got farther away from me, I'm sure, than ten feet And demanded to see every Inch of film. I won't stop to set down all my adventures, except this one point I was on the China Sea, on a North German-Lloyd ship named the Francis Fran-cis Ferdinand, sitting at the captain's cap-tain's table, one noon, when a man from the wireless office came, said something in German, and handed the captain a message. The captain read it then reread it and, to my astonishment, arose slowly and, without a word to anyone, faced the end of the dining room where there was a painting on the wall of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand. He saluted the picture gravely, and sat down. Then he said, "He has just been assassinated at Serajevo." But it did affect me, as I soon found. Singapore England's stronghold strong-hold in the Orient was filled with German spies. And soon, at my Dutch hotel, I heard nothing but war. But it would be over soon. On the way to Rangoon, later, four or five English "clarks," who had been assigned to duty at home, walked up and down the deck giving an imitation of the goose step and roaring with laughter. I laughed, too. It all seemed vastly amusing. One of the clerks said, "It'll all be over before we get home and I'll have to turn around and come back, which'll be just my luck." At Rangoon a shadow fell across us. We were transferred to another ship, one much smaller. Gradually matters grew worse and I felt myself my-self struggling against something powerful and relentless, as one does in a troubled dream. I had no passport of any kind, fo at that time passports were not required. re-quired. But I did have a personal letter from William J. Bryan, Secretary Sec-retary of State, which the publisher of Leslie's Weekly had got for me. I got on the train one nfght in Calcutta with a Pennsylvania Dutch young man of my age. We were in the compartment alone together; the engine was smoking and breathing breath-ing heavily, and people were going up and down the platform in a last-minute last-minute excitement of departure when suddenly the door was opened by two British officers. One said, "Are there any Germans in here?" The young man with me answered, "Nein." He was hauled out and was, I learned later, kept in Ceylon as a prisoner for three months. I made newsreels and travel pictures pic-tures across India, but even here, miles from any British stronghold, I felt the war roaring toward me like some gigantic but invisible force. In Bombay my camera was taken from me and I had to see half a dozen officials to get it back. I ran out of money, and the Majestic Hotel ejected us, but kept our cameras, cam-eras, chemicals and equipment I moved into the YMCA, where, for three weeks, I was without a shilling to my name. All I could do was to smoke and scour my teeth and chew gum. At last money came through. I claimed my cameras and equipment, equip-ment, and got on to Egypt. The shadow had grown darker. I could fill pages with details of what happened, hap-pened, but I must forego that, for I don't want to make my book too long. Only just one point: I was questioned at the Second Cataract as a spy. William J. Bryan saved me. At last I got to London and cut the film. It was released as half-reel half-reel subjects under my name. I thought it was, for the most part, pretty poor. But when the Universal house organ came out it had this as a banner line: "UNIVERSAL SCORES AGAIN. LAEMMLE LUCK STILL HOLDS." I felt better. I went to the advertising companies com-panies with my pictures and the pieces I'd written. The chewing gum company said No; and wanted none of what I had to offer. The others bought some of my "still" pictures and some of the material I wrote, at a price which I thought was pretty good, but which I now realize was ridiculously cheap. And now I had enough money to get married. Oh boy! When we were married, the Universal Uni-versal Newsreel made motion pictures pic-tures of us coming out of the church and getting into a cab; the pictures pic-tures were shown on the screen in and around New York. Thus we became the first couple in the world to be put into a newsreel. The church was the Swedenborgian, near Madison Avenue, New York, and the time was February 7, 1915. Until Un-til then the newsreels had dealt with burning buildings, street accidents acci-dents and other calamities. Then they discovered love. It Just shows how they were progressing. Later, in the British Museum, London, I was pleased to find a write-up of the wedding and the statement (very British) that an American couple had chosen to throw modesty to the winds and be photographed for the cinema actualities. The write-up didn't think much of the brash American couple. Well, they're still married. (And they still have the negative of the film.) TO BE CONTINUED) 1292 36-52 Afternoon Frock.
