Page 3 Dottie 'Dixon' Lawson Says- Dear Mi s Dixon-Is the old saying true that if you look at the mother, you can tell what the daughter will be like in ten or fifteen years? I have been going steady with a girl for two months, and I think I am falling ln love with her. Her mother is big, fat, and lazy, and I wouldn't like that kind of a wife. BRUNO Undecided LUPATO Yes, the daughter generally follows ln the mother's foot- steps. The old adage Like mother, like daughter usual- ly holds true. Every young chap should take a long, lin- gering look at mama before he pops the question. There are exceptions to all rules, however, but lt is a safe rule to pick out your mother- ln-law and then marry her daughter. DOROTHY DIXON B. and P. w.

He said- Once a friend was telling me about the time 'e was out West hunting and there were just 3 cartridges left ln 'is gun. All of a sudden 'e saw a bear coming at 'lm about 90 per. He got scared and shot at 'im onct 'fore he got in range. Then he shot agin and got 'lm in the shoulder: wounded 'lm but didn't stop 'im. Then 'e got scared and threw down 'ls gun and started to run. There wasn't anything ln sight 'cept a 'cactus tree' so he just am- bled off toward the 'cactus tree'. Then 'e suddenly reallz- ed that 'e couldn't climb it 'cause it was a 'cactus tree' and it was sticky. There was a limb on it at, oh - 30 feet above the ground. 'E looked around and saw the bear about as far as from 'ere to that ta- ble. 'E was getting awful tired so 'e made one last effort to save 'is life and 'e took off for the limb. About this time I got all excited, 'Did you make it? What happened?' And 'e says kinda slow-like, 'I missed lt going up but got lt coming down'! Those attending were Tony Davltto, Warren Dugger, Stan- ley Nawrockl, Wayne Hedges, Rice Graham, Richard Flener, and Eugene Bolam.

Due credit is given to their man- ager, Monk Anderson and his assistant, Dave Santrach, a combination which in the good old days couldn't be beaten. The losing team was hindered by the fact that their managers, Joe Pognant and Ray Bybee, were laid up with swing fever. Both Pog- nant and Bybee were star hit- ters in their days. Now for the deview of the game: The game started at 1:31 p. m., by Umpire Toffolo's stop watch. The day was cold and dreary with the hot sunshine pouring down on the field. First man hit a. foul between lst and 2nd, This was followed by a fly ball which went be- tween the short stop's knees. The catcher in left field threw down his mask in disgust. A home run was hit over the grand stand making the Net- ters ahead by 1 point. This was followed by a triple over the fence and a single in the grandstand. This ended the first half of the first inning. Then it was time for the 7th inning stretch. This started off with a bang by the pitcher shooting a low one into the plate. But the knives and forks were missing.
