"What do you hear from the mob?" I asked. "Anything that would fill up three sheets of copy paper?" The former Man of Extinction thought a minute. "There's one story I don't remember seeing in print," he said. "It's about an old man named Eonowitz who ran a candy store on the East Side around the time Dutch Schultz was buying his first delivery trucks. . . ." One night as the storekeeper was about to lock up, a hoodlum stepped into the snop and pressed a gun against the old man's mid-dle. "Hide me somewhere," he said. The old man knew better than to argue with a revolver. "Who's " banked the lire, and waited in his store until he saw the men climb into a car and drive oft. Then he went back down and untied the mattresses. "You done fine, Pop," said the fugitive, taking a wad of bills out of his pocket. "Tell me when to stop countin'. " "Such money I don't take," said the old man. "Ya kin have anything ya want," said the gangster. "Make a wish. Better yet,, make three wishes like in them fairy stor ies." "Well," said the storekeeper, "I hear in a couple weeks some guy from the West Side is opening a candy store on the next block." "He ain't gonna open," said the hoodlum. "Keep talkin'." "The man who sells me my chocolate syrup, all of a sudden he wants a 15 per cent mark-up.- " "I'll discuss it with him. Chances are you'll get a reduction. One more wish to go this time make it good." "That's all I can think of," said Ronowitz, "excepting maybe you'd like to tell me how it felt when you was in the mattress." THE GANGSTER'S lips tight-ened. "You're makin' fun of me, Pop," he said, "and I don't like it. I wanted to pay ya off nice and properr but since ya don't want it that way,, maybe I better try some-thi-else." Ten minutes later, as per phone instructions from the hoodlum, a chasing you?" BiUy Rose he asked, as he opened the trap door which led to the cellar. "Some fellas from Jersey." When they got to the basement, Ronowitz pointed to a couple 'of old mattresses near the coal bin. "Lay down," he said,, "and I'll make a sandwich." A minute later the storekeeper had rolled man and mattresses into a bundle and tied it up with a piece of old clothesline. AS HE STARTED back up to the store, a couple of men, guns in hand, came down the stairs. "What-ch-a doin' in the cellar?" asked one. 'Bankin' the furnace," said the old man. The gents from Jersey poked around in the trash barrels, ex-amined the coal bin and then came to the rolled-u- p mattresses. "I'll throw a bullet into them for luck," said one of them. "You been seein' too many movies" said the other, "Left try the roof." The mobsters went upstairs and Ronowitz heard the door bang. He The old man braced himself and wondered who would mind the store the next day. Suddenly the gangster grinned. He walked over and began to undo the chains. "Now you got your answer, Pop," he said. "That's how I felt when I was in the mattress." black car drove up and Ronowitz was pushed into the back seat. The car headed north and kept going until it parked near a wooden bridge somewhere in Westchester. The driver took some chains from the luggage compartment, put a heavy piece of scrap iron on the old man's middle, and then lashed his legs to his chest so the metal was wedged in between. "Throw him over when I fount three," said the hoodlum.

IncBn I SP0RTLIGH7 Casey Dreams Up Some Trouble By GRANTLAND RICE STENGEL,-th- e hard-luc- CASEY miracle man who suffered over 70 team concussions last season, had a dream recently. It was a dream that turned into a nightmare and Casey doesn't care to talk about it. It seems that in this dream the eminent C. Stengel saw his team go through the sea-son without a single blemish. No injury or accident or illness assailed any of his sturdy athletes. Joe heel lost its Achillean vul-nerability and Joe foueht for the up St. Petersburg and New York this season." That Mark When the rather young Ralph Kiner moved into the 50 or better home run bracket for the second time, there were increasing mur-murs about the possibility of some slugger passing the Babe's old mark. Ralph Is 6 feet, 1 inch and he weighs 198 pounds. He has a pair of powerful hands and a pair of exceedingly strong wrists. This is where most of hitting power comes from when correctly applied. "I might do it or someone else might do it," Ralph said. "But I don't think so. I was meeting the ball well last season. In the last 30 games I hit 20 home runs. That's a lot of home runs to hit in 30 games. I probably wouldn't do that well again in & lifetime. I mean in my , last 30 "games where the tension begins to build up. I sud-denly discovered that to beat 60 home runs you've got to get a good start and keep on hitting 'em. You can't afford any bad months. You can't blow yourself to any slumps. Sixty home runs a year is a home run about every' 2 games. I hit better than one every three games last year, but that wasn't good enough." Since Johnny Mize was dropped as a regular, there don't seem to be any big home run hitters in sight, except Kiner. Ted Williams is usually somewhere in the high 30's or the 40's. One trouble with Ted is that he won't swing at a ball an inch or two inches off the plate. He doesn't say to himself "I'm going to belt this next one if it's close." If it's an inch off it's a ball, and Ted never swings at a ball. There are few pitchers who get any thrills from having one of their fast balls hammered out of the ball park. They view such a pro-ceeding with practically no cheer. Bounding Dodgers In a strict Florida fishing accent, the Rt. Hon. Burt Shotton, the Dodger's high gun, issued one of the most truthful statements of the year. He asked, in effect, just why the Dodgers shouldn't win the next Na-tional league pennant since they had much the best ball club in their league including catchers, pitchers, infielders and outfielders? You've got to admire a statement of this sort for it puts manager Shotton on the hot seat. Grantland Rice Yankees in 154 games. No replacements were needed to help reinforce outfield or infield. But, at the end of the dream, the Yankees didn't win the pennant. The Red Sox did, haunted by the Cleveland Indians. Why? Mr. Stengel doesn't car'e to talk too much about it. But this is what happened 1. Jerry Coleman, a brilliant rookie last season, had the same "sophomore shingles" that at-tacked Alvin Dark and a flock of other freshmen. The second sea-son is always the toughest. The same disease struck the other 1949 rookies. 2. Phil Rizzuto, the star of the 1949 group, dipped a trifle from his lofty peak. 3. The pitching staff wasn't quite as good as it was last year when Reynolds, Vio Raschi, Lopat and Tommy Byrne, who all had big years, spent part of their time on the soapy chute. They were good ' but not as good as they had been. 4. Minus so many accidents, in-juries, etc., the Yankees no longer had any fight against fate. They lost part of their 1949 hustle. 5. Prof. Stengel suddenly dis-covered that Red Sox pitching was far better than it was last season with Parnell, Kinder and McDer-mot- t out on the happy highway. 6. The pennant-savin- g Joe Page was good but not the Page of 1949. Joe has been great every other year 1945, 1947, 1949. This was 1950. x This was the dream. C. Stengel, the potentate, failed to enjoy the next day. "Do dreams come true?" Casey asked. "If they do I may decide to stay out here and pass By INEZ GERHARD npHE PRESENCE of studio audi-enc-at the CBS Saturday night broadcasts of "The Goldbergs", for the first time in 20 years, rather startles author-sta- r Gertrude Berg. She had felt that the program's ef-fectiveness would be spoiled if, for instance, an audience saw the sound GERTRUDE BERG man open a window when she was supposed to do it. But the thousands of requests to see the show in the studio prove that people are eager to see "Molly", "Jake", "Rosalie" and "Sammy" in person and don't give a hoot who opens windows. They have become so real during all these years that nothing can possib-ly destroy the illusion. Pretty little Vanessa Brown, who was so thrilled over getting the role of the Irish maid in "The Heiress", has been signed for a top role in "Three Husbands", for United Art-ists. Also signed for a leading role is Emlyn Williams, well known playwright, stage and screen star. "Three Husbands" is by Vera Cas-par-credited with "A Letter to Three Wives". Pierre, a chimpanzee, will make his motion picture debut in Hall Wallis' "My Friend Irma Goes West", now shooting at Para-mount. A native of the Jungle Vil-lage, he will play most of his scenes opposite Jerry Lewis. Cornel Wilde and Maureen O'Hara rehearsed eight hours on two consecutive days for their fencing sequence in the opening scenes of KKO's "Sons of the Musketeers". Their re-hearsals involved a fight rou-tine to be shot in one take, re-quiring three and one-ha- lf min- utes to film. Wilde is a skilled fencer; Maureen had had in-tensive coaching for weeks. The announcement of Bob Hawks' engagement came as a surprise to a lot of people. He will marry Mary Rechner, executive assistant to Dore Schary. head mm at as soon as a replacement for her can be found. "The Tattooed Stranger" RKO'3 mystery drama, follows the trend of using New York for backgrounds, which was so successful with "The Window" Script calls for scenea everywhere, from the Bowery t the Bellevue morgue. The Fiction HEAT LOAF A Richard H. Wilkinson Corner SHERIFF FELIX just about to sit down to his supper when the telephone rang. He looked at the instrument ruefully. Before him was a heap-ing plate of meat loaf, fried pota-toes and fresh green peas. Felix sighed, glanced across at Elvira, then moved to the wall phone. "Hello," he said. "This is Chris Verne out at the Rowland camp," came a low and -- Minute excited voice. 3 F'Ct'011 "Someone's just , broken into the Eront room. I'm hiding In the library, but I may need help." It was five miles to the Rowland camp by way of the river road. Felix made it in eight minutes, despite the ancient vintage of his rattley car. Chris Verne came down the steps to meet him. "Too late, Sheriff. He got away. We had quite a tussle, but he whacked me on the mel-on and I was out like a light for three or four minutes." The tall, rangy caretaker gingerly felt of a bump on bis head. "Get awav with anything?" Felix I sneaked into the library. It was inky dark. I hastily dialed you, then went groping for the rifle Rowland keeps behind the safe. It was Tight then something hit me on the head. iiTjVMM," Felix stood in the 1 center of the floor and looked arouild the 'room. The dial telephone was on the desk, with the receiver dangling on its cord. "Chris, mind callin' Elvira an' telling her I'll be home shortly an' to keep my supper hot? I left it in a hurry. Meantime I'll take a look around here." Chris shot a quick, sharp look at the officer, but Felix had already begun to browse around. So the caretaker crossed to the desk, picked up the receiver and began to dial. He had whirled out two numbers, when suddenly the lights went out. " "Hey!" Chris yelled, startled. "Who did that?" "Keep right on dialing, Chris," Felix said from the doorway. "Fuse musta blown." "Don't be dumb. I can't dial in the dark." "Try it," Felix insisted. "Are you crazy? I can't see a thing." "Good!" said Felix. He snapped on the lights. In his hand he held the old time long barrelled that had served him during his many years as law officer. "All right Chris, nemmine dialing any more." "Say, what Is this?" The care-taker replaced the receiver on its hook slowly. "We'll talk about it later, Chris, an' look around for the bonds. In the meantime, you come with me. You can spend the night in the lock-up an', by jinks, without no supper too. That's what you git for makin' me let mine go cold." Chris blinked. "What the devil are you talking about?" "Come, come, Chris. Play actin' ain't gonna do you any good. I got a hunch it was you stole them bonds, and busted the lock on the front door, too.' At any rate, you didn't hastily dial my number in the dark, like you said. You just settled your own hash by proving it can't be done. An' speakin' of hash, come along. asked. "Don't know yet. I was looking when you drove up. Come on in and we'll see." The caretaker went directly to the safe behind the fireplace. "Hell!" he ejaculated. "Well, I can kiss this job goodbye. Rowland will never keep me on when he finds out those bonds are gone." "Bonds?" "He was up here over the week-end. He had a lot of negotiable bonds and left them in the safe. Figured this would be the last place anyone would look. Well, he figured wrong." "Did you get a look at the thief?" "Not much of one. It was dark. I was in the kitchen getting myself Chris shot a quick, sharp look at the officer, bat Felix already had begun to browse around. some supper, when I heard a noise in fro'u. I switched on the light and litenec". It sounded like some-one was trying to pick thp front door lock. Thinking of the bonds. I CROSSWORD PUZZLE sj ACROSS DOWN 21. River in. jAlijAoNl . . 1.
