YANKS SUFFER FIRST DEFEAT New York, Apr. 24. — (UP) —The baseball world is impressed by the “booming "of big guns" and the menace of "murderers row" as the New York Yankees have smashed out seven- victories in eight starts. ! hut tlte Pittsburgh Pirates have turned the same trick in the National league without fanfare or flourish. George Gibson’s Corsairs have' made the same number of runs as the world champions, 37, and have outltit them. 82 to 64. Meanwhile I the famous Yankee pitching staff allowed 59 hits, whille Pirate flingers yielded 57. The Pirates -are two and one-half games ahead of their nearest rivals, the Giants, while the Yanks are only one con-; test in front of the White Sox. Many of the experts picked these tw oteams to engage in the 1933, world series, and while their achievements in eight contests is, no assurance of continued success, they seem to be moving toward such a classic. Should they meet,; early season statistics indicate that ; the Pirates will give the Yanks a| mighty good tight. Washington snapped the Yanks' sling of victories at seven straight yesterday and tagged them with their first defeat of the season, 5. to 4. Joe Cronin s outfit combined two singles, two passes and a triple for two runs ifi the ninth to win. Earl Whitehill limited the New I Yorkers to eight hits, while Lefty j Gomez and Wiley Moore yielded , nine. Tommy Bridges held the St. I.ouis Browns to one hit while Detroit blanked them. 2 to 0. although George Blaeholder and Irving Hadley allowed only three safeties. The Boston Red Sox rose from last to sixth plaice in the American league standing by virtue of a 7-to-5 victory over the Philadelphia Athletics, made possible by Bernie Friberg’s single in the eighth with the bases loaded. The A’s dropped into a last-place tie with the

'MARY FAITH" .. .1 b y Beatrice Burton COPYRIGHT, 1931, By KINS FEATURES SYNDICATE, INC
SYNOPSIS Mary Faith, comely young orphan, gives up her position as secretary to the wealthy Mark Nesbit to marry Kimberley Farrell. Kim, a young shiftless lawyer, lives with his mother. When the latter objects to the marriage, Kim brusquely startles Mary Faith by breaking the engage ment. Later, when he sees her with Mark Nesbit in a jewelry store, selecting a ring, his jealousy is aroused. The next morning he appears at Mary Faith's boarding house and overwhelms her with his protestations of love. She again leaves her position and, after a hasty marriage, they spend an ecstatic two weeks’ honeymoon in the house of Kim’s aunt in the country. Returning home, Mary Faith moves to the Farrell apartment. Kim's friends, Claire and Jack Maldon, find Mary Faith a dull companion • for their jazzy parties. Mary Faith realizes Kim is irritated by her failure to drink and gamble. During the winter Kim attends the parties alone. Mary Faith takes care of the house but knows nothing of Kim’s finances. When he hints at being pinched for money, Mary Faith accedes to his request for S6O. Later, he admits taking ♦hat sum from the firm's collections for his own use. The next night, at dinner, he tells Mary Faith he has lost his position. He then persuades her to let him have a thousand dollars to open his own office. Mary Faith, learning that she is to become a mother, joyously visits Kim's office to tell him the good news. She finds him flirting with a girl. Kim is furious. Mary Faith decides not to tell him of the approaching event. Back in the apartment, Kim tells Mary Faith and his mother that he is getting out —that his marriage is a failure. CHAPTER XXIII There wasn't a shadow in his eyes or a line of worry in his face. He stood there, calmly breaking their lives to pieces as if he were a willful child knocking over a tower of building blocks. "The most unlucky thing that ever happened to us was seeing each other in Armbruster’s store last Christmas." He was turning now to go out of the kitchen. "If that hadn't happened everything probably would have turned out all right. You'd have married Nesbit, and I'd have stuck to Janet." “Janet." Mary Faith had formed the word with dry lips that made no sound. Janet. . . . The "loyal little kid" who had left the offices of McIntrae and Westover when they had let Kim out—who had followed him to his own tiny office in the Towers Building. "You're leaving me for that girl, Kim. You think you should have married her instead of me, don’t you?” "I shouldn’t have married anybody." he said violently. "And don't try to hang all the blame on her. Our married life has been a flop ail along and you know it as well as I do . . . What do 1 get out of it. I'd like to know? 1 sit all day in a two-by-four office, waiting for a lot of clients who never come. 1 sit all evening in this flat, staring at the four walls. It’s a great life for a man. isn’t it?” He swung round and started down the narrow hall that led to tire sleeping rooms at the back of the apartment. Mary Faith followed him. "Kim, you're just discouraged tonight ” "I’m just through I” he corrected her. "I'm all through. And I’m getting out now while the getting’s good. See?” He pulled his Gladstone bag down from the shelf of his closet and opened it on the bed. Then he began to take his clothes out of the drawers of his dresser—shirts, underwear, socks, handkerchiefs. He went into the bathroom and came back with his tooth brush and his shaving tackle in his hands. "Kim, you’re not going out toaight? You’re not going now?" "I sure am. I’m going to get it •I: over and done with before I weaken. ... 1 know it's the thing to do and I'm going to do it. Besides, it's- the twenty-eighth of the month. You and my mother will have to step lively if you're going to be out of this place by the first. It’s only three days off." He laid a bill on the top of the

dresser. “There’s fifty dollars," be said. “Make it go as far as you can. will you? When you need more you know my phone number downtown . . . and tomorrow will you pack up the rest of my clothes and send them over to the Maldons’? They’re going to let me sleep on their davenport for a few nights until I find a room 1 talked to them about it tonight." He was picking out some ties from the dozens and dozens that hung on the inside of his closet door. Mary Faith watched him from the doorway. She wondered if he remembered that he had worn that plain dark green satin one on their wedding day? “Kim, don’t you remember the day we were married?” she asked him suddenly. “Don’t you remember the first supper we cooked down in Aunt Ella s kitchen? And remember how we woke up on New Year’s Eve and listened to the bells? You can’t say that our married life was a ‘flop’ then, Kim. We were awfully happy, weren’t we?” His shoulders lifted and fell in a careless shrug. “That wasn’t our married life—that was our honeymoon,” he said. “And listen to me. Mary Faith, why drag up the past? Why be sentimental? Why be sentimental about something that’s all over? We made a mistake. Let’s admit it and forget it Let’s wipe it off the slate.” After that she did not argue with him. She slipped out of the house and sat down uti the top step u> the back porch. The stars were out, thick as water-lilies on the vast black pool of the night sky. The air around her was cool and sweet, and somewhere close at hand a bird twittered sleepily. She found herself wondering how the world could be so beautiful and so peaceful when life could be so bitterly cruel. . . . “I’m going, Mary Faith." Kim’s voice came to her through the doorway behind her. Turning her head she could see him standing in the middle of the kitchen with his Gladstone bag in his hand and his new light overcoat over his arm. He was peering out into the darkness. “Aren’t you coming to say goodbye?" he asked. “No—l’m siot. I'm not leaving you, Kim. You’re going away from me. and I can't say good-bye- -I'm sorry " She watched him as he turned and walked out of the bright little room without another word. Presently she heard the sound of bis car as it
started. When the murmur of its engine had died away in the distance she got up and went back into the kitchen. Mrs. Farrell was sitting at the table in the dining room. She had been crying and her eyes were red and swollen. She gave Mary Faith a wild dared look as she came into the room and sat down across the table from her. "Well, what are we going to do?" she asked. “1 guess there isn t anything to do but what Kimberley told us to do, is there?—lt kills me to think of giving up my home and going down to Garrettsville—" She put her face down into her hands and her broad shoulders began to shake with her sobbing. “You aren't going to give up your home.” Mary Faith said very quietly; but Mrs. Farrell heard her. She raised her face from her hands and stared at her. “You’re going to stay right here, and I’m going to stay with you," Mary Faith went on, ”I’ll get some kind of work to do this summer—and 1 have seven hundred dollars that we can live on after 1 have to stop working. That ought to tide us over . . .” Mary Faith drew a deep breath and went on: “You see, it’s like this —l’m going to have my baby in January. And 1 think he ought to be born right here, where you and I can take care of him, don't you?” There was a dead silence in the room for a minute or two after she stopped talking. Mrs. Farrell's eyes grew round and large with her astonishment and her mouth fell laxly open. “A baby?" she repeated. “A baby?" She shook her head as if she couldn’t believe it. “Does Kimberley know this?” she asked sharply. “No. 1 was going to break the news to him today—and then all this trouble came up. So 1 kept still,” Mary Faith explained simply. “But you shouldn't have kept still I You should have told himl If he d known about it he never would have left you the way he did just now. Never in this world!” Mary Faith nodded. “I know it. . . That's why I didn’t tell him. [ didn’t •••ant to keen him that way. I didn’t want to keep him at all if he didn't want to stay—and you must promise me that you won’t tell him. (To Be Continued) Coarrlfkt.
