zeal he once devoted art te d to the yankee stadium hot corner comer started this hai having ing returned from a sabbath visit to his old eld playgrounds having inspected the he cash register and having set up a 2 few on the house he was talking about the third major league greatest team around nowadays he was saying sure those tigers are good but what happens when the checks are down those yankees just romp home with the marbles dont they sure they do and continue doing it all season win all by themselves theres nobody like them tops a whole league to themselves theres no other organization even close to them A timid customer edged a pound note upon the mahogany he obtained the same prompt service which it was mr dugans pleasure to provide ten years ago when the lower end of the batting order was up ap and a rally was needed in the ninth then mr dugan continued dessir Yes sir he said that third major league folks gossip about now and then where going to get opposition from is more than I 1 know I 1 maybe offered another customer tossing a 10 bill lik down the middle they could choose up sides and play games among themselves i joe mccarthy mr dugan took care of the bill and the suggestion with the same aplomb that used to distinguish him when the bases were loaded and a line drive came whizzing over the third sack yeah teah maybe he a greed agreed or maybe they

as a very independent thinker the reporter knew that he had bad coi come e to the wrong spot such views as those expressed about the yankees are merely those of a few million bullion other discerning citizens and even if he would have liked to know what is due to happen in that entertaining feud being staged by the w giants cards cubs and pi tates the reporter hesitated to in intrude ude the name
