The colonel was the a rm y 's No. 1 specialist on the super-gadget
w hich was about to revolutionize w a rfa re , as the colonel could (and
would, i f he got a chance) te ll you. The colonel knew the h is to ry of the

trace
its
I evolution d o w n
through the days of delicate in te r­
p la y when i t broke up the E m p ire
o f Charlem agne, and on down to
the fa ll o f S talingrad.
The colonel had brought the gen­
e ra l about up to the th ird P unic
w a r and the se cre ta ry was w ig ­
gling.
The general h im s e lf had
begun to fum ble w ith fo rm 2A-

he was ra p id ly losing his audience.
So he raised his voice so th a t file
clerks in the next o ffice stopped

up.
" B y the way, G e n e ra l," he

c o n fid e n tia lly ,
" D id

The general’ s se cre ta ry perked

A t about the same hour, over

was sipping a th in
scotch-and-soda w hich his chief
had ju s t ordered. H is chief was
bored.
" B y the w ay, C h ie f,” he said in
a w hisper so loud th a t even the
w a ite rs stopped looking respectful
and liste n e d: “ I'm
w ritin g the
P resident's next speech at the In te r­
p la n e ta ry

In fo u r other places, fo u r other

AU this has been going on, I
suppose, in w o rld ca p ita ls since
before somebody else thought he
had codified the code of H am ­
m u ra b i.
P resident T ru m a n got a little
peeved re ce n tly over the same
line of co lu m n a r ch a tte r and be­
gan to " le t it be know n” th a t he
could w rite h im se lf. Of course,
a ll presidents get advice, counsel,
assistance and in sp ira tio n fro m
many men of m any m inds. Of
course, there are h u m a n ita ria n s
and g ra m m a ria n s, s ty lis ts and
C a rlyle-ists, lexicographers and
geographers,
economists
and
agronom ists, Russians, Prussians
and Persians upon whom he can

And somehow o r other, each and

they w rote the whole—o r a t leas'
the stenographer who had to tak«

so, and tells her frie n d s about i t —

This rookie p itch e r is s m a rt—and
w hat is m ore im p o rta n t—he also
can pitch. Up to $100,000 was o f­
fered fo r his service in the box.
"Y o u w r ite ," he said, " th a t
Johnson, Walsh, A lexander, M a t­
ty and others pitched around 406
Innings or m ore.
T h a t’s rig h t.
You also w rite th a t no modern
p itch e r can w ork 300 Innings.
M ost of the good ones are 250-
Inning pitchers. T h a t’s rig h t too.
B u t don’t fo rg e t those old pitchers
were th ro w in g a half-dead b a ll—
a s p it b a ll—a fuzzed-up b a ll—a
logy ball th a t Samson couldn’t h it
out of a bandbox ball p a rk ."
"N o w , check back w ith me.
Hom e-run B aker h it 12 home runs
in one ye a r and p ro m p tly was
labelled ‘H om e-Run’ Baker.
Here
is the kin g of a ll home-run h itters.
He smashes 12 four-baggers in one
season and he is the king. Why to-
day, some of these bums I ’rfl throw -
ing a t m ig h t pile up 12 home runs
in tw o weeks.”
" I ’ m te llin g y o u ," he continued,
" th a t today we are th row ing ex­
plosive bombs to the plate. E ve ry
b all we th ro w is loaded w ith dyna­

h it one fo r three bases,
"Y o u rem em ber those old Y an­
kees headed by R uth and Gehrig?
They set a home-run record that
never would be broken, and they
were sw inging a t a ra b b it ball.
L a s t ye a r the G iants came along
and made those R uth-G ehrig Y a n ­
kees look like bunters. They were
h a m m e rin g a t a ru b b e r ball, even
fa s te r than the one Babe and Geh
rig swung at.
“ To show the difference, if R uth
were p la yin g in the day of ’Home-

been 20 home runs fo r the en tire
season."
