I I J-4 I Home fires and .fame fires both burn brightly for the Gehrlgs, who fast arc becoming one of the coun try's moat prominent families. Mother and Father Hbnry Gehrig ; are pictured above with Lou, the ; home run star,' and "Tessie" at their New York flat. Over at the ; right Is a most interesting camera Lou's "Ma" Is Deep-Dyed Fan as Well, i Angler and Good ,Cook; Raised? Her-, Boy to Play. Baseball 'v.; ; . BY.HOp"r.ENSE.SAUNDERp, ' NEA Service Writer.' NEW YOIIK, Aug. 10. No use tho Oehrig family. If "Ma" Gehrig . Uvea over it, she will bo a wonder. Of all tho folks who are Eeiting a big "kick" out of Lou i Gehrig's race with the immortal Babe Jluth' for home-run-hitting honors, "Ma" Gehrig is getting the biggest. ) That's not all. Lou's mother is reaping a large crop of fame on : her own account as well as her son's. Thanks to pickled eels. Though she can perform ' won ders with roast beef and mashed 1 potatoes and all the other better known and more routine items of a husky man's diet, .it's at pickling , eels that she reaches the peak of her culinary'artistry. j Yanka Cry for Them. She has the whole New York t Yankee team crying for them now. i Were "Ma" Gehrig to run out on j the playing field with a bowl of j ar pickled eels in the middle of a I game, that game would stop right there! . ; . "Lou always 1ms been cracy about pickled eels," she explained to me. "He'd rather have them v than caviar. And he's' always had . all of them that he wanted. "You sec. 1 believe in leaving dieting and starving to those who enjoy it. I believe in food lots of teagg iiin"i.ii n in lirii.i' " hi . -t -,iirri,i . i ,.,! n .1-1 1 Commercial freight service by air bcoame a reality when Henry Ford delivered this monster flying truck to an eastern typewriter manufacturing' concern...

Lou started.iu .asa. baby to oaf all he could hoftll lie (iidh't become an athlete on spinach. ; '. An Eef; Banquet "One day Lou and I weut fish ing togethor, and caught 86 eels. Ho cleaned them, and I cooked them. Wo took; the whole lot up to hefie: how, to pickle -em " - -' " '' " If you'd raiso your boy to be a home run king, feed him pickled eels! Hero is "Mu" Gehrig's recipe: ' "Skin and clean the eels and let them staud in salt water for about 12 hours. Cut them ipto four-inch lengths, . put into a stew pan, and cover well with a mixture half water and half vinegar, adding salt, pepper, bay leaves, cloves and chopped onions. Cook the eels in this for 15 minutes, covered. , Take out the eels and let' the gravy boll down. Put the eels in a long pan, cover with the gravy, which will set into a jelly, and put away to cool." Koenig all the hoys seemed to en joy them. Before then, 1 guoss Lou tho Yankee stadium, and not one survived not one eel, I mean.

Who knows' that this fact doesn't ox plain -the way those Y'aukoos have &een winning games this season? ,.- She's a Delight J.' ';. V She's a delight, Is 'la" Gehrig a splendid, .motherly soul, not al together "modern" in all her vlewB and sympathies, a mother who honestly adores nor big, . square i shouldered son and doesu'tt try. to .loolv or act like his sister. - ! i Her gray hair is pulled cureless !ly from bar wrinkled brow and. rol ;led ima knot at the back . of her i head. "Ma" isn't . much on style. :fihe hasu't .counted calories in an effort to. attain a flapper figure. Hut she is -her son's best pal. I'hese two share a companionship ! that many another . woman must j envy. : ; , . i i . Fellow Anglers i! When the- Yankee ; team 1b in j'ew York, you can bank ou it that j Lou and his mother are out in the ''country with their fishing rods and l-lines at least two or three times l each week. That's how they get the eels. Thoy know, every good fishing place in the . wholo New York vicinity. . Mother and son are as close ill their baseball comradeship- as In' their eel fishing. , An Inheritance - "I don't see - what Lou could have done but -be a baseball play er," she told me. "1 was - crazy about the game when I was young Truck iff j 4 its study of the smile with which "Ma" Gehrig watches 'Lou con sume her pickled -eels. "Ma" and Lou xatoh. tho eels themselves, and often serve them to the whole Yankee team. Below is a photo of Lou doing a bit of pitching, at which he is no fizzle . by any means. er. and I UBed to iihiv very well, .'When1 Lou was a liltlo boy - I guvo him mitts it ml bats for liros' ouU, and he nevor seemed to want an thing else. "When-'he "didn't have anyone else to play with him I vus right out on tne vacant lot. ''''I never nllsuod a baseball game tliat I could possibly' go.' to, and always took Lou. When he wont to Columbia 1 knew very: voii It wasn't the book knowledge but the athletics ho went in for. I didn't try to keep him in college. I'd rulsed him to be a bail jnayer, so 1 was glad when he went seriously into profcssionul playing. And when there isn't any more ' base bail for him, there won't be any more Lou Gehrig." . , Knows the Fine Points ' "Ma" Gehrig knowB every fine point of baseball. She could step out' on the field and do a gooiT Jou of umpiring if she wanted to. "1 enjoy - the good playing of others just as much as 1 do Lou's," she said. -'"I'm just as excited when the others hit homers as when he does, if he were playing1 badly, 1 wouldn't -overlook It just because he happened to be my son. Any how, 1 know all the boys and I'm watching the rost with almost as much interest as Lou. I'm all for the glory of the team." Though at the present "Ma" Geh rig has no competition, except from baseball, for her son's affec tion, she is resigned to the fact that she probably will play second tiudie some -day. -"Of course he'll marry." she con eluded. "Then his wife can fix his eels and I'll take a vacation." CAR'S DOUBLE SOMERSAULT PUTS MAN IN HOSPITAL (AuocifltvU Prcw U-aavd Wire) PENDLETON. Ore., Aug. 13 John Betllow, aged about 31, of.
