It over to Meyer Chozen, shortstop

Antle 'a letter to ihe sporting editor
of the Oregonlan reads:
"Have Just finished reading your
Interesting article In regard to old
baseball bats, and was reminded that
I had one that was new in 1913 or

Dick Applegate Returns
From Frolic Thru Europe
To the Editor:
For the first time in my life, but I
hope not the last, I've experienced the
thrill of coming into New York har
bor from across the pond. What I'm
trying to get at. Is that I've Just
gotten back from a trip to Europe,
and I'll bet money no one ever made
the trip more rapidly than I did.
We frolicked (good word, frolicked
: picked that up from John Reddy)
thru France like the Colvigs used to
thru stop streets, but we got our
money's worth. We left New York on
the 23rd of June, and sailed for
Havre, France, which, paradoxically
or otherwise Is pronounced by the
Frogs as tho it were spelled H-a-r--e.
getting In after a wild ride of seven
days. The old tub we were on, the
"Osprey." went thru some of the most
alarming gyrations, without sinking,
that any sea-going vessel ever ac
complished and as the captain of
the old Junk remarked "If there's
anything IN a man, this will bring
it out." I upheld the traditions of
the first-timer nobly.
As I started to say, after docking
at Havre, we climbed aboard a very
small, and very nonchalant-abeut-
gettlng-any where choo-choo, and
bounced to gay Paree, which city had
the difficult task of looking gay at
four o'clock In the morning I At that,
It did as well as could be .expected,
and the Elfel tower, which is a rather
rusty looking piece of radio mast
without any mate, lived up to ex
pectations.
Fred and I both, of course, had to
partake of some champagne next day
(and why not? There's no prohibition
on champagne there, unless It the
very effective one of price!) Anyway,
the stuff is full of bubbles, which arc
hard to get hold of with ones normal
, , , .
jinking apparatus nasl? from
the fascination and thrill of a new
experience, and the delightful feeling
of being risque, and not a little feel
ing of daring, I think I prefer Med-
ford's million dollar water.
We wandered around the city In a
daze, visiting, as a matter of course,
the Louvre, and all the available ca
thedrals, and about 3 p. m. if you
want a lot of fun seme time, Just
try to find out what time of day it
is when you're tn Paris. First you
pick out some Cosmopolitan looking
individual, and ask him, In very bad
French, what time It is, and he, gen
erous soul, and anxious to show you
what excellent French he speaks
they all knew we spoke English, thru
some mysterious faculty of their own
Immediately launches a cascade
of explosive words, whirling arms, and
spray of what cigars are not sup
posed to be tipped with. French Is a
good language, but I find that darn
few Frenchmen, can speak It. Assul
(pretty nifty, my way of dropping
into French, as we continental trav
elers do, isn't it?), the only person
whom we met, who failed In the above
mentioned test, was a fellow In the
railroad travel bureau, who was ad
vertlsed as an English -French ling
uist, and from all Fred and I could
tell, ho answered our queries In very
rapid Arabic, or something.
I believe I started to mention that
at about three o'clock In the after
noon, we tore ourselves away from
Paris, and started, on that exciting
little train, back to Havre, and our
boat, which we found making every
effort to go on to London, or back
to London, If you want to quibble
about geography with us. We soon put
a stop to that, and after a very short
and very un-exc. ving trip, we dropped

heard that one before?
We were In London for fourteen
hours, and talked to Ramsay Mac
Donald. Oh, Indeed we did. He drove
up Rotten Row, which now that I
think of it, Is a rotten name for
street, and everyone took off their
hats, and yelled hurrah that Is ev
eryone but Fred and I, whose hats
were In Medford, Oregon, and New
York City, so HOW COULD we take
them off? So, Just to show that we
Americans were good sports, and could
forget all about war debts, and every
thing, on occasion, we stopped and
talked to Mac. Maybe he DIDNT ans

And Judging from the black looks
of the entire populace of London at
this piece of Yankee Impudence, we
decided that perhaps we would be
better off in Ireland, and being
strengthened In this conviction by the
fact that our boat sailed In about two
hours, we went back to the dock,
and set sail for Dublin.
It didn't take long at all to get
around to Dublin. Really, we were
surprised at the contemptible way
our geography has tresed us. Where
as, It always seemed thousands of
miles from France to England, and
the same goes from England to Ire
land, tt really Is only a trip of a few
hours. In fact, when we first saw the
English channel, we wondered what
all the excitement was about when
some one swam the dinky little thing.
To let you in on a little private con
viction, I think I could JUMP the
measley Uttle thing. Well, maybe it
would take two Jumps, but If I was

We got In on the tall end of the
Eucharlstlc congress. Gosh, what
mob I That was one way of seeing a
bishop without going thru all the
formality of getting an introduction.
Dublin is a rambling old town, and
tremendously interesting. I got a let
ter from mom last nlte after we'd
docked here in New York, telling me
that Father Powers, who used to oe
in Medford was there. That would
have been fun, seeing someone from
home, so far away from home. The
nearest thing I saw to someone from
home, was an old Model T Ford In
Havre, with a pear box for a seat,
and on the pear box, In big blue let
ters, was "MEDFORD." Gee, I wish
I had a camera.
About two and one-half days In
Ireland, and the Osprey began to
show signs of uneasiness, so back
aboard we went, and the next thing
we knew, we were staring the statue
of liberty In the fact again. I made
the entire trip under the name of
Bob DePue, because my birth certi
ficate, which I had sent for, but
which hadn't arrived, had to be sub
