T")0 YOU have a large wall
space somewhere in your
house that looks rather bare? Why
not All it with a group of matched
brackets on which you may make
•n attractive arrangement of bric-
a-brac and trailing vines?
This sketch shows a set of three
brackets in a quaint old-fashioned
heart design over a davenport in
the living room. The center brack-
et is fourteen inches wide with one
•f the matching smaller brackets
an each side. The sketch also
ehdWs how easy it is to cut out the
heart design with a sharp khife
after boring holes with a brace
and bit. Any school boy who has
the use of a coping saw or maybe
a jig saw may make these grace-
ful brackets.

NOTE—Mrs. Spears has prepared an
•curt! atre pattern for aU the pieces of
this set of wall brackets, with complete
directions for cutting, assembling and fin-
ishing. The lines of these brackets are
so well proportioned that you wilt be proud

The Finest Pitching
There are two men who. since 1915
when such earned run records were
listed, head the long list with some-
thing to spare.
And both were pretty fair country
throwers. The leader is a fellow by
the name of Grover Cleveland Alex
ander. His runner-up was Walter
Johnson.
Here is Alexander’s record ol
earned runs—read it—and wonder-
1915— With Philadelphia—1.22.
1916— With Philadelphia—1.55.
1917— With Philadelphia—1.83.
1919— With Chicago (after
serving in the army)—1.72.
1920— With Chicago—1.91.
Here is an amazing pitching rec-
ord which included 16 shutouts in
1916.
In 1913 Walter Johnson with Wash-
ington allowed 1.14 earned runs; in
1915, 1.55 earned runs; in 1918, 1.28
eprned runs; and In 1919, 1.49 earned
runs. Johnson had the best fout
years—Alexander had the call at five
seasons. I doubt very much that
two greater pitchers ever threw
ball by hostile bats.
As Johnny Evers told me once—
"Alexander was the only pitcher ]
ever faced who made me want to
throw my bat away before I started
for the plate."
Johnson had the blinding, blazing
speed—Alexander had the control
and the cunning—and both had great
hearts. They worked for shutouts.
If averages mean anything, here
are your two greatest pitchers.

Before and After a War
There have been arguments back
and forth about the comparative val-
ue of athletes, whatever the game,
before and after a war Is over.
What about Joe Louis, Joe DiMag-
gio, Bob Feller, Ted Williams, Sam-
my Snead, Ben Hogan, Billy Conn,
etc.?
Suppose we look at the case ol
Grover Cleveland Alexander? Alex-
inder broke in with the Phillies in
1911. He was 31 years old when he
was called into army service, where
he served abroad In 1918. And Old
Pete had his share of rough service.
Yet tn 1919, after the war, 32 years
old, his earned run average was 1.72
and at 33 he pitched 363 innings, a
total of more than 40 ball games,
with a mark fixed at 1.91.
This is proof enough that those
who had it will still have it left
upon their return.
Bob Feller, for example, won’t be
26 until next November. Joe Di-
Maggio will be 30 in November. Ted
Williams will be only 26 next Octo-
ber. These, and many other stars
with the luck to return, will hav«
many big years left.
Baseball in 1944
In addition to the demands of the
draft, the two major leagues have
run into the worst training weathei
of many years.
But as Harry Greb told me once,
—“I get in shape by fighting.”
My angle is that If football, box-
ing, basketball, hockey, indoor track
and field, bowling—and especially
racing, facing a record season—can
get along, it would be something
of a shock to find that baseball, the
so-called National Game—couldn’l
By SGT. JIM SWARTZ JR.
Released by Western Newspaper Union.
The tender beauty of an
English spring surrounds this
American medium bomber
station, but the fighting men
from the U. S. A. are too busy
with their big job to notice it.
Most of these fellows come
from the Southwest — Texas
and Oklahoma—from the cat-
tle ranches and oil fields.
I talked to a score of these fliers
at a Marauder bomber station in
rural England. I heard them re-live
past experiences in the skies ever
Europe . . . spin their dreams of
victory . . . and plan for a peaceful
future back in their home towns in
the Southwest.
And I saw a look of determination
on the faces of these men that made
me glad I wouldn't be one of the
enemy when these Yanks from
Texas and Oklahoma take their
bombera to the Nazis' invasion front
yard.
Alex Owen is one of these fighting
neighbors of yours. He came all the
way from Tyler, Texas, to man a
.50-callber gun In this war, and he's
the kind of lad you'd like to know.
Alex enlisted in the air forces
back in 1941, after making friends
with countless citizens of Tyler from
behind the counter in "Men’s Cloth-
ing” at a local department store.
Today he is a veteran tail gunner
with 39 missions over France, Hol-
land and Belgium to his credit. And
he wears the coveted Distinguished
Flying Cross, the Air Medal and five
Oak Leaf clusters.
What does the Big Show mean to
Alex Owen? Ask him and you’ll get
an answer as honest and straight-
forward as a fellow-Texan’s word of
honor.
"I wouldn’t miss it for one helluva
lot,” he told me that day. "Sure,
it's rough. We're not fighting a war
with kid gloves on, man."
•Back to Tyler.’
That was Alex’s story, and It's
much like the one I heard from
another Southwestemer that day at
this American bomber base in rural
England.
His name is Joe Shouse, an
engineer-gunner from Coweta. Okla-
homa. a small, friendly town 30
miles from Tulsa.
Joe (officially, he is Stall Sergeant
Joe W. Shouse) is a 22-year-old vet-
eran of 35 missions, and he says the
coming invasion can't start too soon.
Back in 1941 and part ot 1942, Joe
was a sheet metal worker for the
Spartan Aircraft company, in Tulsa.
But when you mention postwar
plans to the young Oklahoma gun-
ner he says he has put them all on
the shelf for the duration.
"I'm too excited about the job
I’ve got now," Joe told me that day
in his Nissen hut "home" at this
Marauder base.
His hut-mates and fellow-gunners
like to tell you how cool Joe is
under fire, and after a brief conver-
sation with him you agree with
them. And when I left Joe that day
I figured I'd met the “typical” fight-
ing man from the Southwest.
Then, a few minutes later, in
another Nissen hut, I met other air
force men from your home
THE CREW ef a medium bomb-
ing plane la a strongly welded five-
link chain, In the conception of Sergt.
W. D. Morey of Kelly Field. Texae.
The five men—navigator, mechanic,
pilot, bombardier and gunner—train,
fly and fight ae one.
Inside, around a warm, pot-bellied
stove, there is Ramon Western, a
crew chief , from Alvord, Texas.
And next to him there is a young
mechanic by the name of Tommy
Busselle, a Houston youth who used
to play a saxophone in a home-town
orchestra. Then, to round out the
Texas trio, there is Bob Allen,
another Houstonian and an aircraft
electrician.
I wondered about that legend on
the door, and Tommy Busselle gave
me the details.
"We call It the ‘Gangsters' Roost'
because that explains how some of
us ground crew chiefs get our equip-
ment." (This with a wide grin play-
ing across Tommy's face.) "And as
for the word Texicans,' that was
robust youth who proudly boasts
that he is three-fourths Indian (Semi-
nole and Delaware tribes) and then
adds, grinning: "The other 25 per
cent of me is as Irish as Paddy's
pig."
Wnlt (or "Chief,” as he's known
at this field) is one of the crack
crew chiefs in his group. His ship,
"Baby Bumps," has gone out on
53 missions without turning back,
and the Chief, who is a former oil
field roustabout from Dewey, Okla-
homa, is plenty proud of that record.
Walt likes to talk about such
things as the coming invasion, and
the day when he can go back to the
Oklahoma oil Industry.
“Well, I volunteered in this man's
army, didn't I?” the "Chief" blast-
ed out. "And until this war's over
in both leagues I'm goin' to stick it
out."
When the war in Europe is all
wrapped up, the Chief wants to take
his Marauder over to the South Pa-
cific (with Ramon Western, his crew
chief pal from Alvord, Texas) and
send it out against the little yellow
men.
Then Walt says he’ll be ready
head back to Oklahoma. Is he going
back to the oil fields? "Hell, yes,
Is the Chief's reply to that one.
As I was leaving Walt with his
second helping of steak and potatoes
that day, he told me that I should
have met the real hero of the Scott
"tribe.”
'He's my kid brother, Yoeman,”
Walt said. "Right now he's finishing
up aviation training back home, but
one of these days you'll be hearing

towns . . . and their stories are the
kind you like to hear, too, because
these neighbors of yours will all be
in the aerial front lines when the
big fight comes home to the Nazis.
There were three Texans In that
Nissen hut, and as you approach its
front door you see this sign over-
head: “The Gangsters’ Roost: Texi-
cans Included.”
A MARAUDER soars through fleecy clouds over the patchwork Eng-
lish countryside, en route to a bombing mission on the continent. The

power engines. (AU pictures official U. S. Air Force photos.)
the brain child of a sergeant from
New Jersey who doesn't know how
to spell Texans.' These ‘foreigners’
hand us a lot of laughs," he told me.
Ramon Western is a Texan with
a clear-cut idea of what he’s going
to do to help win this war.
A crew chief, he sent one bomber,
"Damita," on 40 missions to Hitler's
tottering European fortress. Then,
when the trim Marauder went down
one day, Ramon took up the fight
with a successor, "Damita II.” He
has been in England since June,
1943, and he'd be as happy as a
bomber mechanic knee-deep in
grease if the invasion started tomor-
row morning.
Before the war, Ramon worked
his way through three years of
school — at John Tarleton Junior
college, at Stephensville, and Texas
A. St M. college. He lacks only a
few hours' credit for a degree in
agriculture, and when he gets back
to Texas he wants to go back for
that sheep-skin. Only this time he
won’t have to work his way, because
he's bought a pile of War Savings
bonds for that education.
Wants to Go ‘Jap Hunting.’
And when the war in Europe is
won, Ramon says he’d like to take
his Marauder (always a crew chief
calls the ship he works on "his
ship") to the South Pacific and send
it out "Jap-hunting.”
The two Houston youths in that
Nissen hut told me that those senti-
ments were theirs, in spades!
Bob Allen, for example.
Bob is an electrician for several
ground crews at this field, and he
doesn’t kid himself about his sum-
mer sleeping schedule. “These sum-
mer nights in England don’t start
till midnight . . . which means
we’ll darned near work the clock
around, I guess. But I’ll just put off
the shut-eye until I get back home.”
And when he gets back, he says
he’ll probably finish this education
at the University of Texas. Then he
wants to take up where he left off as
a field salesman for a heating sys-
tem firm in Houston.
One of the most colorful charac-
ters at this station is Walter Scott, a
big things from him. No, he's nc
lousy grease monkey like me . . .
he's a bomber pilot, dc luxe.”
And that's the story, as I heard
it, of the Scotts' personal offensive
against the Axis.
Two McKinney Boys.
Before I left this Marauder sta-
tion that afternoon, I happened
across a couple of aerial gunneri
who made me wonder if I were
standing on Main street in Mc-
Kinney, Texas.
First, there was a fighting son ol
the Lone Star state by the name ol
Forest (Staff Sergeant Forest C.)
Board, and before I had even gotten
his name, I was Introduced to
19-year-old Jimmy Ashley, another
staff sergeant gunner. Both of these
air force fighting men came from
McKinney to fight their share ol
this war, and because their thoughts
on this "Invasion Eve" are as genu-
ine as a Texas handshake, I thought
you’d like to know them.
Forest is a veteran of 35 missions
over enemy territory, and he’s
"daddy" of the McKinney duo, al
the age of 33. Back home, he was a
traveling salesman for a bill-fold
company, with a territory tha1
stretched across Missouri, Arkan-
sas, western Tennessee, Louisiana
and Mississippi.
Then came the Fourth of July,
1942. The McKinney flier says it was
nothing more than a coincidence
that he enlisted on such a patriotic
occasion but when you talk to him
you get the idea that it shouldn’t
have happened any other way.
"Let’s get the Job over with,”
the likable Texan told me, "because
I’m anxious to get back on my old
job. Heck, I’ve still got my sample
case . . . and a list of my old cus-
tomers."
And there you have the real story
of how these fighting sons of Ameri-
ca’s great Southwest are meeting
the great challenge. There’s a gleam
in their clear, straight-looking eyes.
And there’s determination in their
hearts. Texan and Oklahoman to-
gether, they’ll be over here until it’s
time to make the welcome trek back
home.
Tales of the Big Town:
Willlston Rich of the Time mag
factory tried for years to convince
his colleagues there that Bob Hope
would make an interesting profile
. . . But he was always nh-nh'd .
So he went on a short holiday, and
the bosses suddenly decided that
Hope should be given a salute .

Some ef the men from a redistri-
bution center were entertaining at
the Latin Quarter the other mid-
night . . . When they finished they
tipped the waiters lavishly and
called over a bus-boy to hand him
a few dollars . . . "Thank you,
Lieutenant," he said, "but I couldn'l
accept any gratuity. Just waiting
on you has been a pleasure. You
see, I was wounded In your sec-
tor, discharged, and I'm now back
helping the war effort by serving
you and all other men in the war"
. . . Then he opened his white coat
and displayed his campaign ribbons
. . . The officers stood and saluted
the bus-boy. It was all very lumpy,
ln-the-throat and thrilling.
A group of mldtownere were gab-
bing about charges of "innuendo"
over the radio, and a veteran re-
called this Jimmy Walker story .
During his first campaign for Mayoi
of New York, LaGuardia charged
the popular Walker with all sorts ol
corruption, and Walker never an-
swered.
"Why should I make his cam-
paign for him?" he said to a pal.
“I won't build him up. It would
be fun, though, to ask him one ques-
tion. What was he doing in Water-
bury on July 16, 1928?"
‘Was LaGuardia there then?"
asked the friend.
"I dunno,” replied Walker, "but if
I asked that question he could deny
it until he was blue in the gills. A
lot of suckers would still believe
there was something fishy about him
and Waterbury!”
Sid Sheldon reports that a com-
pany of boys from the Army Signal
Corps were sent to the induction sta-
tion for overseas physicals. One ol
them (in the army three years) wan-
dered into the wrong line and wound
up being examined with selectees.
The final doctor told him he was 4-F.
But,” protested the soldier, “I’m
already in the Army!"
