John Blsiner leaned Into the adjoin¬
ing box and whispered to Trls Ford:
“Exactly the situation In the Inst game
of the world series I"
“One big difference.” corrected the
manager of the Giant-killers, “there
ain't the same lad at hat. Watch I”
The man who catue to hat In the
crisis had a famlltnr hearing. He car¬
ried himself like a figure known to
this recital. But his face was either
unknown or strangely transformed.
The sporting writers at home could
have explained this: Those prehistoric
caps worn by the Giant-killers! Long
had the homely headgear been con¬
demned as something which dated
known as “rounders," but Trls Ford
back to the time when baseball was
wouldn’t change. To alter the design
might bring bad luck I Now the man
at bat was glad that there had been no
change. Not a soul—not even hers—
would recognize him!
He shifted around restlessly at the
plate. M Hardest man to pitch to in
the league I” he was called.
<• One ball. »»
• i One strike!” he had let It go by.
He moved about, swung his bat,
raised his shoulders to let out a ktnk
In his muscles, and, quickly but unoe
tentntlously, pulled down the visor
of Ills cap.
Instantly the runner on third edged
off the hag, more and more, and the
moment the pitcher lifted his arms
and began to wind up he dashed for
the plate. There was a gasp, for It
seemed that the man was rushing In
to certain destruction. But the agile
youth at bat reached out and deftly
tapped the hall I It rolled with exas¬
perating slowness toward the pitcher,
who was hurrying to field It.
Dp went a shout. The tying run
was scored for the Giant-killers! And
like unleashed lightning the batsman
was making tracks for first hnse.
At the same time, rounding third
and never pausing for an Instant, the
hnse runner who had been on second
was coining home. Of course he was
crazy! The pitcher would look up.
see him halfway to the plate, toss the
hall to the catcher, and the foolish
base runner would be an easy out.
But the pitcher was rattled. Al¬
ready the score had been tied. He
must make sure of one putout. So,
blindly, he wheeled and threw the ball
to first base. The man who had bant¬
ed was out by Inches. But—another
runner had Hashed over the plate!
The Giant-killers had won! When
It was explalued to him, the king con¬
gratulated Trls Ford. The next thing
John Rlsuier got the manager’s ear:
“That proves It—proves you have
the best team. With the king of sec¬
ond basemen Id the game you would
have won the world’s championship—

Hugh M. Dorsey

fight.
—is going to be Georgia's next
United States Senator.
There is no longer any question about it.
He is going to carry more than the 101 counties which elect¬
ed him to the governor’s chair.
Reports reaching Hugh M. Dorsey headquarters in the Kim¬
ball House, every day of the campaign, forecast his certain
election.
Already strong Dorsey clubs have been organized in more
than eighty counties, and news of new Dorsey organizations
is coming in daily.
In some of these counties more than half the registered vo¬
ters have signed lip in the Dorsey Clubs.
In all of them the Dorsey Club membership indicates a
strength that will sweep the county for Hugh M. Dorsey on
September 8.
Hugh Dorsey is going to win for two reasons:
Because of his splendid record of service to the people of
Georgia in the governor’s office, and
Because he is the one true, tried and always loyal Democrat
in the race.
*
He is standing squarely behind the national Democratic
platform and nominees, while Watson is opposing and knif¬
ing the platform, and Hoke Smith is wobbling and straddling
at every turn of the wheel.

“But I’m so sorry—very sorry—that
you didn’t hit the ball. she assured
him.
When?” He was confused.
41 That last time—with two of your
own tnen on bases, nervous to get
where they started from!" She was
very earnest. “I knew you wanted to

far out so It couldn’t be thrown back

He stared at her, wondering If pos¬
