Threo times since late last season Tom has stood on the threshold of diamond Immortality, only to havo tho door slammed In his face.

Tho Tiger star's run of misfortune began In a game last season against Washington, when lie pitched hitiess ball for eight and two-thirds innings, only to have Dave Harris, a pinch hit ter, pound out a single.

Tho stroke of master diplomacy In effecting the Franco-American ap provement was described as having been; accomplished when Mr. Cox cast aside all traditional diplomatic tac tics and laid his cards on the table regarding the American position.
