IRE Catvat SPORTS COLUMN
4 „,-7;6steoz,
W+ For some reason or other we've always
been on the side o1' the underdog, no
matter what the sport. You would hardly
call Ted Williams, the Boston Red Sox
• home -run hitter, an underdog, especially
if you recalled his - salary, But we' were
griped, on occasional visits to the Boston
ball -park, by the almost vicious fashion
in which Williams was greeted when he fielded a ball, or came
to bat. We never understood why such a truly -great athlete
should receive such scurvy treatment, and felt it a tribute to
W1lh1tl.ms' courage, and tenacity, that he should continue to
star in the face of such mysterious hostility.
Perhaps it will be different in coming seasons for the
splendid Splinter, as the tall, slim batter has been termed,
now that he is definitely a war hero. We hope so, particularly
after hearing a story that came out of the west coast, after
Williams landed there on his return from Korea.
He carne from Hawaii on a transport plane on which there
were two bunks for sleeping,
When told Williams was on that plane, a serviceman is
said to have cracked: "I know who'll be in one of those bunks
when the plane lands.”
After the plane landed, a sports writer picked up a hitch-
hiking sailor who had come from Hawaii on the same plane,
"What sort of man is Williams?" the writer asked.
"A completely right guy," was the answer.
"What did he do?" prodded the writer.
"Well, he carne aboard with an armful of magazines
and dropped them around for us to pick up and read."
"Where did he sleep?"
"Be just piled on the floor with the rest of us."
And from Washington, D.C., we got another Ted Williams
story that belies the claim that he's indifferent to requests,
gruff and disobliging.
A. baseball fan named Jim McNally, a great admirer of
Williams, wrote Ted asking for a couple of autographs for
himself and his son, Jim Jr., former Washington -Lee High
School sports star, Ted replied with two signed photos just
three days after the request. Like Ted, both the McNallys are
ex -Marines.
Williams was Captain Williams o1' the U.S. Marines. lie
took no more, as he flew back from the battle -front, than
was available for all others, enlisted or otherwise, so we feel
pretty sure we're not alone in hoping that Captain Ted Wil-
liams regains his eye, his swing and his speed quickly enough
to hit .400 for the Boston Red Sox in the years to come, a hope
that seems well grounded, for he was clipping off home -runs
In his former brilliant fashion, soon after rejoining his club.

Alfred Horton, cockney artist

He is past .4zf the London
street scene.
You will see him any fine day
on the Thames Embankment,
near Charing Cross Pier, kneel-
ing on a little pad, and rubbing
the crimson and orange glow
of the setting sun into the pav-
ing stone with a grubby finger.
This week his pastels have
won for him the title "Screever
Number One, London" writes
Melita Knowles in The Chris-
tian Science Monitor.
The word "screever" isn't de-
fined in Webster's. In a cockney
slang book, however, you would
find that it means a pavement
artist, one whose canvas is the
sidewalk.

were invited to compete in the
National Hobbies and Handi-
crafts Exhibition at the Central
Hall here this week. Seven great
slabs of paving stone were taken
along as canvases.
Alfred got down to work. He
took nearly three hours, much
longer than usual to complete
his picture, "Running. Water."
"What with the mike, and the
lights, and the flashing bulbs,
and the questions of the news-
papermen, it was hard to con-
centrate," .he told me later. But
Alfred knew his subject. And
his colleagues applauded as he
took off his French beret and
rubbed his stuffy beard on re-
ceiving the cash prize of £5
from Jean Carson, actress,
"I joined the merchant navy
when I was 14," he said. "I've
seen sunsets all over the world.
When I pick up a piece of chalk,
the pictures all come crowding
back to me."
He was doing a repeat of his
.. prize-winning picture on the
pavement the next day when I
visited hien, just a stone's throw
(pavement stone) from Cleopat-
ra's Needle.
A battered old felt hat had a
few pennies in it. I dropped in
, a coin. It chinked, but Alfred
didn't look up. He selected an-
other crayon from hundreds on
a piece of sacking on the pave-
ment.
Two sprightly white lambs
gamboled into the picture. Alfred
took a black crayon and etched
in a gate.

These days most people work under
pressure, worry more, sleep less. This
strain on body and brain makes physical
fitness easier to lose—harder to regain.
Today's tense living, lowered resistance,
overwork, worry—any of these may effect
normal kidney action. When kidneys got
out of order, excess adds and wastes
remain in the system. Then backache,
disturbed rest, that "tired -out" heavy -
headed feeling often follow. That's the
time to take Dodd's Kidney Pills. Dodd's
stimulate the kidneys to normal action.
Then you feel better --sleep better—work
better. Ask for Dodd's Kidney Pills at

type of costume that brought
wolf whistles from graridpappy
when Gloria wore it as a Mack
Sennett beauty.
"Bit bright, ain't it — that
sky?" a voice behind me said.
Alfred dropped his chalk.
"Time and time again I've seen
it," he said.
"Where?" the critic asked.
"In Scotland when I was in
the Army."
Alfred joined the Army in the
last war, he told me. Maybe it
was on maneuvers among -the
heathered banks and braes he
had seen the golden, sunsets,.'-;:?
the wooded copses, the sheep,,s'
the water dashing up from black,
rocks.
He had a precise, well -ordered
way of doing his picture — start-
ing with sunset.
"Never 'ad a lesson in my life,'
It's just a gift," he said mod-
estly.
T could see the faint outlines
of the sunsets of other days on'.
the pavement.
"Do you have to rub them out'
each night?" I asked.
"Well — yes," he said, "but;':
often the rain does it for me
It's late when I leave."
My own feeling was he couldn't';
bear to part with his sunsets.
"Oil paintings — yes I do them,
but not for sale. I might do
masterpiece one day. Where ;
would I be if I sold it?"
So Alfred parts only with pas-
tels — as pictures and trays. •
He is sending one to Jen);
Carson, "so she can semeln
the screever r she gave the ' p t i s
to," Alfred said.
