Tales Of The
Baseball Diamond
THAEE-CORNER SHOTS•
in the first inning of a game
between the Yankees and Tigers,
Dick Wakefield smashed a liner
which bounced off first baseman
Nick Etten's shin directly to
socond baseman Joe Gordon,
Who threw Wakefield out,
The identical play occurred in
the sixth inning. A savage line
drive caroming off Etten, going
to Gordon, then back to first for
the putout, Wakefield, victimized
out of two sure hits, fumed and
raged,
"Don't feel bad," jockeyed
Gordon, 'Vick and. I practice
that play every day."
THEY SHALL NOT
PASSATtELLA
Connie Mack was a kindly
old gent on the ball field, but
he wasn't the Milquetoast his
biographers would have you be-
lieve, He could express himself
quite firmly when the occasion
warranted,
There was the afternoon an
umpire called a game on ac-
count of rain in the seventh in-
ning, just as the Yankees went
ahead by a run. The game had
started in light rain and Con-
nie saw no reason why it
shouldn't finish the same way.
He walked over to umpire
Art Passarelia and impaled him
with a baleful glare. "Tell me,
Art," he sneered. "Did the rain
get any wetter when the Yan-
kees went ahead?"

NIPPED IN THE BUSH
When. Big George Magerkurth
was calling 'em in the American
Association, he once gave Donie
Bush, manager of Indianapolis,
a beautiful dose of come-up-
Pence. In the fourth inning,
Donie came roaring out of the
dugout to protest a called strike.
Magerkurth waited until Bush
nearly reached the plate. He
then turned his back on him
and addressed the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen," he
cried. "Mr. Bush is about to
make a short speech: As soon as
he finishes it, he will be called
upon to leave the premises. I
thank you."
CLOSE TIES
When Tony Lazzeri took ever
as Toronto manager in 1939, he
inherited a team of hitless won-
ders who had just put together
a string of thirty-odd scoreless
innings. The old Yankee slug-
ger took the situation philoso-
phically.
One day Walt Lanfranconi
pitched a beautiful game —
walking nobody and giving up
just four hits. He lost, 2-0. In
the locker room, Tony patted
Walt's shoulder consolingly.
"Never mind, kid," he said.
"Next time maybe you'll pitch
a shut-out. And with our slug-
ging, you'll be sure to get a tie."

tweeted on the f u t u r e, Why
should they punish him fax
leading some papers left in an
ordinary folder on a desk?
Three hours later he heard a
key turn in the lock and jump-
ec' up from the chair. A grim-
feced Major Gerneay stepped
in.
"We are leaving for Wash-
ington immediately," said Major
Gerneay. "An aircraft is wait-
lug,"
"May I — may I say goodbye
to my wife—"
"You may not," Gerneay snap-
ped. "You are allowed to speak
to no one until. we receive an
all clear from London — from
the Prime Minister himself."
The fact that a special 'plane
had been laid on for the express
flight to the Pentagon complete-
ly unnerved Couture. By the
time armed American soldiers
:net the 'plane and marched him
direct to an office where nine
of America's war leaders were
waiting, Couture could just
about walk,
After questioning the ser-
geant-major for ten minutes, the
officers ordered him to be plac-
ed under close arrest in the
Pentagon. By this time, Couture
was certain he would be shot,
or at least imprisoned for life.
The next day, Couture was
hustled under close guard to -an
office where he found the Vice-
President and a number of mili-
tary chiefs awaiting him.
A devastating cross-examina-
tion followed. Had he shown
the file to anybody? Had he
talked to anybody about it? Had
he allowed the file to leave his
possession for even as long as
a minute?
To all these questions shot left,
right and centre at him Couture
had only one reply: "No!" The
file had even gone to bed with
him when he realized how se-
cret it was. It was his secret
alone.
The top brass then dismissed.
Couture a:' d promised to "send
for him soon."
The War Office in London
advised Washington that Cou-
ture should be interned for
safety, but Washington a n cl
Canada protested.
"You can't intern a perfectly
good Allied soldier because of
the carelessness of someone on
your side," the Pentagon snap-
ped. "In fact, you ought to de-
corate the man for keeping
quiet."
London wilted under the cri-
ticism, and Couture, still under
guard in Washington, was freed
and flown back to Que,bec.
Exactly one year I a 4- e r the
War Office announced that the.
British Empire Medal had been
awarded to Sergeant-Major
Eugene Ethile Couture,
Today he is just plain Mon-
sieur Couture, of Quebec, but he
ranks in the annals of war as
the only man in history to be
decorated for keeping his mouth
shut!

Bees Swarm In
Man's Beard
An elderly man with a mag-
nificent snow-white beard sat
down on a bench in the Tier-
gerten, Berlin's chief park, one
hot afternoon and was soon en-
joying a nap,
Suddenly he was aroused by
a noise of humming which grew
louder and louder. To his horror
lie discovered that a swarm of
bees had settled in his beard,
Fortunately he had the pre-
sence of mind not to move. A
girl who was passing saw his
plight and summoned the fire
brigade.
She was right, The firemen
brought along with them a skep,
a kind of straw beehive and the
bees were induced to quit the
old man's beard and enter it.
That incident is being recalled
this summer by beekeepers in
many parts of Europe who have
been called to deal with an ex-
ceptionally large number of bees
swarming in odd places',
A man in Paris was having a
bath when he heard a prolong-

Save Your Fingers
This item won't do you much

save it and get to a good sur-
geon as fast as possible.
According to plastic surgeon
Dr. Beverley Douglas of Van-
derbilt University, 17 cases have
been reported recently where a
finger tip was successfully sewn
back on. He advises: control the
bleeding by tourniquet only,
don't use corrosive substances
such as iodine in the open
wound, wrap up the tip in tissue.
Douglas says he uses a magni-
fying glass to match up the
fingerprint ridges.

Won Medal For
Keeping Silent
Casually, the sergeant - major
picked up the file from the floor
of the conference r o o m. But
when he had glanced at a cou-
ple of pages, his eyes almost
popped out of his head
For what he had read convinc-
ed' him that he was holding one
of the most vital secrets of the
World War II in his hands—the
master plan for the invasion of
France.
Sergeant-Major Eugene Emile
Couture had been supervising
the cleaning of the room at the
Chateau Frontenac, in Quebec,
Canada, after an important
meeting between Roosevelt and
Churchill in 1943
Hustling the cleaners out of
the office, Coulture, already in
a sweat and with the vital file
tucked under his arm, hurried
to the military headquarters at
Quebec,
"I have to see the Distract
Officer at once," he told a staff
officer, "and I cannot tell you
what my business is except that
it is top secret,"
The officer grinned. "Sorry,
Couture, no one can see the bri-
gadier without telling me what
he wants,"
"I cannot tell you, sir," Cou-
ture snapped.
"Then you can't see the Dis-
trict Officer," the captain re-
plied.
Frustrated, and with the top
secret file still under his arm,
Couture hung about headquar-
ters for several days in 'a futile
attempt to see the brigadier.
On the^ fifth 'day, Couture
spotted Major Edouard Gerneay
entering 'headquarters, He knew
Gerneay very well and talked
him into letting him see the bri-
gadier.
Brigadier Edmond Blais took
the fire from Couture with little
show of interest.
But as he read the first page,
his face blanched and he looked
up quickly at Couture.
"Have you read this, Sergeant-
Major?" he demanded,
"Great Scott! Do you realize
what this is?"
"Yes, sir, those are the final
plans for the Normandy inva-
eion discussed and decided by
by Mr. Churchill and Mr. Roose-
velt,"
"Call the guard!" the briga-
dier snapped and, while Couture
fumbled nervously, two soldier.%
accompanied by a lieutenant,
marched into the office.
"This man," the brigadier
snapped, "is to be kept Under
arrest and no one—understand,
no one at all, except Myself—
is permitted to see him."
