(Released by We (tern Newspaper Union. the proper THESE to seem tothebebasic foundastudy tions of winning competition. You can get one answer in the New York Yankees' dressing room from such fellows as Bill Dickey, Joe Gordon, Red Ruffing," Spud Chandler, Joe DiMaggio, Charlie Keller and several others. Opening their 1342 home campaign, the Yankees are facing the prospect of winning their sixth pennant in seven starts. It might not happen that way. But that is bow it looks. The Yankees have the bulge in hitting, pitching and fielding. That's a fair start. But they have something more. Something just as important. In addition to their physical margin, which can't be overlooked, McCarthy's hired men are a team together. They spend 100 per cent of their time fighting the enemy not fighting each other. Or fighting umpires. You'U find no individnal Jealousy, no bickering, no squabbles, no high bats, no stars. I've picked op the true lesson of team play from the Yankee dressing room for seven years. Joe McCarthy stands for no bad actor no individual who stands for himself above the good of the team. McCarthy simply passes this type on to some other unhappy manager, while he goes for team spirit A Pioneer ball has been dusted THE crystal the dream book resurrected from the garret, the spirits have been invoked and they all agree on one important point: It'll be the Yankees vs. the Cardinals in next fall's World series. The Yankees' pennant monopoly will not be broken in 1942. Strong as last year, they will gallop away with the American league pennant at their usual confident gait. It is also your correspondent's unsci entific opinion that the Cardinals wiu kick a bit of dust into the eyes of the seven other National league clubs, thus earning the right to be the underdogs in the series. Using the "We Hope You Don't Remember It" system, we predict that the teams will finish as follows: National American 1. New York 2. Boston S. Chicago 4. St. Louis 5. Cleveland 6. Detroit 7. Washington 1. St 3. 4. Cincinnati Pittsburgh HA Mm ; job. They keep In condition. They start no rows. They are all friends In a bunch. They are just out to win, and to be ready to win. They are a quiet lot. They are a team of stars who refuse to be accepted as stars. Just ball players. Their business has been playing baseball, and they play it better than any other team. You'd get a better understanding of this if you could mix a while with such fellows as Dickey, Gordon, Keller, DiMaggio, Chandler, Ruffing, Priddy, Levy, Hassett, Gomez, Rizzuto, and the rest. I asked Bill Dickey about the Yankees lack of color. The tall catcher from Ar kansas, who has been around a sligh matter of 1? seaand here sons, there, mostly with tne Yankees, was Hen-ric- h, mildly indignant. The Arkansas quail shooter gets only mildly indignant. "Color?" he said. What is color? Is it don t think Bill Dickey so. "Color to me Is standing back of the plate and watching that Joe Gordon make plays that I know can't be made. I've seen him kill off more sore base hits than anyone I ever saw. On one play you'U find him back of second base handling a bot grounder. On the next you'U see him somewhere In short right field killing another hit. "If they want color why don't they watch Joe DiMaggio play center field .and make hard plays look easy? Or watch DiMaggio and Keller at bat when the chips are down?" Dickey on Color I don't believe quiet, easy-goin- g Dickey knows how much true color he has. But Bill knows tho main details of color, especially when he is talking about "Who has had the most color in American sport?" he asked me. "I'll tell you Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Bobby Jones, Ty Cobb, Walter Haben and Bill Tilden. But did you ever stop to think each one of these was a star performer one who had greater skill than the other fellows had? "You can't have color true color without exceptional skill. I still say the Yankees are packed with color on account of the different things they can do as hitters, fielders and pitchers. I believe the true baseball fan appreciates this. He likes to see a job well done game after game, better than anyone else can do it" tl'i'l string with Dickey in this respect. A big part of color must be based upon performance under fire. I've never seen a colorful punk in any game. There are no colorful duffers in golf,, no colorful dubs in tennis, no colorful third-rate- rs in boxing. ,' It may be we have stressed color, that was not directly hooked up with outstanding ability, too m!ch. The Main Contest There is now one highly interesting sporting scramble under way that has nothing to do with titles, pennants or championships. It concerns a form of inner rivalry as to which sport will contribute most in the matter of winning the war. Will needed war funds get greater help from boxing, baseball, golf, tennis, racing, football or what?

The hat is of lacquered navy straw trimmed with grosgrain. As a guide to. buying your print frocks and ensembles it is well worth while to saunter through fabric displays with the thought in mind of discovering what's new in prints. You will find a revelation of new and original ideas, for prints this season have quite a way of their own that differentiates them from, the usual order. Some give you a special design for the skirt, perhaps a splash of gay florals on navy or black, with a waist section that poises a single huge matching flower cluster at just the point to give the effect of a corsage either at one shoulder or to accent a girdle effect. If you "make your own" this matter of having the color and scheme of design worked out for you in perfect ensemble simplifies home sewing. Then, too, if you plan to buy a print costume ready made, you will select it more intelligently after acquainting yourself in advance with fashion-rigprints. Featured items that give print dresses and ensembles "style" include such interesting details as quilted pockets, cuffs, collars, lapels and borderings. , An fancy is a single cluster of flowers here and there that sparkles with exquisite hand beadwork. Bouton-niermade of floral cutouts that look realistic add a beguiling touch, as do also the ruche effects formed of the flowers of the print. And so the story of prints goes on in endless pageantry this season!

The pitching Is inadequate, but if the veterans still can hit, the Giants may be battling for a first division berth. The Chicago Cubs shape up about the same as in 1941. They lack batting power and their pitching is no more than fair. Should Lou Novikoff find his big league batting eye, the Cubs will surprise even themselves. Boston and Philadelphia are no stronger than usual. Neither has Improved over last year. The Braves have added Catcher Ernie Lombard! and a rookie outfielder, Tommy Holmes. t if Frank McCormick ... i season's prints are gorgeous excitingly beautiful, especially the gay florals which are such flatterers every woman adores them. To add to their lure, they are being styled with artistry and resourcefulness which are breathtaking in their novelty and as well as their versatility. This is especially so in regard to the theme which is interpreted so artfully one could almost believe that a cpntest is on among designers as to who will create the most ingenious and fascinating effects. The flair for individualizing prints in dramatic ways is strikingly interpretated in the attractive gowns pictured in the above illustration. In these smart New York creations the accent is on bright and brilliant florals dramatically contrasted with dark backgrounds. The dress to the left looks toward summer. It is of navy sheer.

They were headed for last fall's series when injuries weakened them to such an extent that they fell before Brooklyn. The Dodgers, good for second place La our book, have a fine collection of veterans, including Arky Vaughan, Augle Galan, John Rizzo, Larry French and Billy Sullivan. Chicago Is picked to finish third because it has a veteran team and has not suffered from the draft. Fine pitching should be good enough for third and might bring them one notch higher. The White Sox need considerably more power at the plate. The Browns, Indians and Tigers won't be far apart. The Browns are a good young ball club and their pitching department seems to be improved enough to bring them into the first division for the first time in a shameful number of years. The Indians have lost Bob Feller, Gerald Walker, Hal Troskey, Soup Campbell and Rollie Hemsley. They also have a new and unproved manager. Detroit hasn't been the same club since Hank Greenberg was drafted last season. There will be new faces at second base, shortstop and two outfield posts.

Generations before the menace of soil erosion was generally understood, Eliot was devising methods of combating it. He conducted experiments with primitive fertilizers, advocated legumes as crops, recommended the better use of manures and invented improved farm implements. Born in 1685, Eliot was the father of American agricultural literature. He early realized that the farming methods of his day meant ultimate disaster unless corrected.

It is declared to be the logical dress to wear in many of the defense activities, for gardening, flying, bowling, tennis, golf and, above all, for bicycling, which has become so very popular. In fact this return of the culotte is attributed for the most part to the bicycle fad. There's a new culotte that is much in demand because of its practicality.
