"Lefty's figure, husky for a girl, but
slight, is, her only h.and.ipap. If she
had a 200-pound physique she would
be in Lefty Orove's class now because
of her ability to learn weaknesses of
opposing batsmen. She can curve a I

by pasulng out a first class boxing
lesson. It was a "turn about" propo
sition as in the recent A. A. U. tour
nament, Carter was the one who had
his hand raised. Wertheimer, a Syra

ly was declared ineligible for col
lego competition in 1930 because he t
had been playing summer ball, he j
promptly quit school and took up 1
his duties on the mound. j
Winning three and losing eight
was not so good a record, even for
a beginner, but he came to Clevc- !
land the next year for a trial. He 1
was returned to Indianapolis, how- !
ever, where he won 12 and lost 8. I
Finishing the season here, he won i
two out of three.
The most retiring member of the
Indian camp, Hildy started slowly '
this year, but when the club be- j
gan its second eastern invasion he
was called upon to face the Sen- f
ators. The lean rookie pitohed the
best game turned in so far this sea- !
son by a Cleveland moundsman, a j
six-hit affair that accounted for one '
of the Indians four victories In one I
series with Washington.
His next start was against the
Athletics, a ten-Inning winning ef-
fort in which "Hildy" twice fanned
the redoubtable Jimmy Foxx each i
time with two out and bases I
loaded.
HUdebrand's courage in pitching
to Foxx brought him no end of
praise. For the first time the
lanky, 28-year-old Hoosier enjoyed
the sensation of having "arrived."
Twice in his time Hildebrand
has come close to a no-hlt game.

attempt with a triple, and in 1930 the

Do you remember the days when
you first started to smoke?
ALL CIGARETTES tasted
.tL somewhat alike to you,
but after a while you noticed
that some cigarettes were
decidedly stronger than
others . . . Remember?
As smokers become more
experienced, they demand
milder cigarettes, Chester
fields are milder. There is
no argument about that.
Their mildness is a feature
as distinctive as their pack
age or their trade murk.
Their tobaccos are mild
to begin with. Patient uge-
ing and curing make them
milder still.
Chesterfields contain just
the right amount of Turkish
but not too much care
fully blended and cross
blended with ripe, sweet
Domestic tobaccos.
In this nerve-racking
time, smokers men and
women are showing a de
cided preference for milder
cigarettes.
Chesterfields are milder.
They tuste better. That's
why "They Satisfy."
"Mttsic that satisfies. " Every
