Had it not been for the curiassault By way of delving Into the past again all the still existing sets that ous coincidence related below, Augustas adventure might have had a different ending. in 1930. Lee Shumway Augusta, who is a nurse, was attending an invalid patient In Glendale, and on the night of April 4, 1930, at 11:20 p. m., she alighted from the Metropolitan avenue trolley a block and a half from the house at which she was employed. The road at that point happens to be very lonely, inasmuch as Saint Johns cemetery is but a block away. Augusta felt rather creepy for that reason as she was walking that distance from the trolley. Suddenly, ahead ot her, she saw a lengthened shadow, traveling in the same direction. SOMEONE WAS COMING ALONG BEHIND HER. She looked back to make certain, and, sure enough, a man was hurrying along toward her. Augusta felt the man might be following her, so she figured she would cross to the opposite side of the road In order to see whether the man would actually follow her. He did. Augusta looked back once more as she was crossing, and as she did, the man crossed also. He, too, was locking back to see whether the road behind him was clear.

As a matter of fact there are only two or three outstanding catchers in active service at present Bill Dickey of the New York Yankees, Gabby Hartnett of the Chicago Cubs and Ernie Lombardi of the Cincinnati Reds. Reason for the dearth of catching material, according to Barrett, is g the craze ushered in by Babe Ruth and subsequent high-prichome run sluggers. About six years ago I made a survey of this condition among youngsters starting out in the class D minor leagues, he said. I advised them to try their hand at catching, but they scoffed at the Idea. They wanted to become home run sluggers. They practiced batting to the exclusion of practically everything else and they refused to put on a mask and mitt The result is that today the average big league scout covering the minor leagues finds any number of e prospects for all positions except that of catcher.

DISCOVERING hitherto uncharted lakes filled to the brim with black bass and speckled trout is the summer hobby of Bob Becker, hunter, explorer, fisherman, and authority on dogs. Among the half dozen lakes he turned up this year is one in the Kenora region of Ontario, Canada, to be called Lake Becker in his honor. In the fall and winter Becker varies his program in Chicago of writing about fishing and hunting by conducting a radio series entitled Chats About Dogs. On his fishing and exploring trips he usually takes along his champion terrier, Redlands Defiance, as a companion. Hack Wilson, who blasted out 58 home runs tor the Cubs back in 1930, is still box office in Chicago. He proved it recently by drawing 8,000 customers into a semi-pr- o park to watch him play with a team from McKeesport, Pa. . . . Winter fishing is not harmful to summer fishing, as is generally supposed, according to a survey of the Institute of Fisheries Research of the University of Michigan.

One of the things he gets excited about, between broadcasts, Is the number of young people whose voices are being ruined because theyre going to teachers who arent really good.

But he cant tell them how to go about finding really good teachers says that he just happened to be As the man began getting rough, Augusta told him desperately that she expected her husband along any minute, and that her husband was a police officer.

Augusta adds in parentheses: She thought by manufacturing this story the man might go away and let her alone, but, on the contrary, he seemed Inflamed by this threat He became rougher, boasting that he could handle the situation, and Augusta, seeing now how drunk the fellow was, began to tremble Inwardly. And despite her rising panic, she knew that her one hope lay in Just one thing SHE MUST NOT LET THIS FELLOW KNOW HOW FRIGHTENED SIJE WAS OF HIM. To scream was useless; there was no one who would have heard her cries. Augustas one hope lay in holding off her annoyer until someone should happen along. The man was powerful, and Augusta was powerless against his drunken strength. In vain she wrestled to free herself from his grip. He was just about to overpower her when, turning down the road, Augusta saw the headlights of a car. natio- Her Savior Was a Policeman. lucky. The thug had his back turned.

While the thug wheeled to face, as he thought, the approaching police officer (Augustas fictitious husband) stie pulled away from him and threw herself into the range of the headlights! The car was traveling at a pretty good clip, and the driver told Augusta afterward that he did not see her until he was almost on top of her, and actually came very close to running her down. Augusta leaped on the cars running board, begged the driver, a man, to help her, explaining that she was the victim of a holdup. By this time the thug was making his getaway.

He was a total stranger to Augusta, but he must have been just as effective as if he had been the imaginary husband she had tried to scare the thug with.
