HEAVY HITTING FEATURES GAME "New York, May 17. — tU.R) —Just when the experts were ready tc blow taps over the live ball; just when they were ready to award command of the diamond to the pitchers — Washington and Cleveland disrupted the ceremonies by staging one of. the widest hitting games in major league history. The Indians and Senators blasted out the amazing total of 43 hits in yesterday’s historic contest, just two short of the American circuit record. The elbowers had been glorified for their apparent supremacy over batsmen, but a riot squad of 11 pitchers was rushed to the mound at Griffith stadium to halt the slugguts' bombardment during those 12 tempestuous innings. And eleven pitchers in one game equals the major league record established by the Giants and Phillies in 1924 and tied by the Cubs ami Phils in 1928. Washington, showing the season’s weakest major league detensive record, beat Cleveland, the strongest defensive club in both circuits, 11 to in. This pulled the Indians out of first place in the American standing, down to a sec-ond-place tie with the Senators

"MARY FAITH" 1 Beatrice Burton . COPVRIOHT, 1931. &Y KttfO F3AIURES

...M’l t.K XLIH “Surely someone somewhere must be looking after me.” thought Mary Faith, who was still old-fashioned enough to believe in a God who took care of His people just as He did long ago when "by faith the walls of Jericho fell down." And so after that one night she did not worry very much as the long weeks went by without a word from Kim Autumn came with its first cold days and its bursts of wind and rain, and she wondered if Kim had taken his heavy overcoat out of the wardrobe trunk she had packed it. She wondered if he had found his silk-and-wool socks in the bottom of the steamer trunk, and once or twice she was on the verge of calling him up to tell him where they were. But she decided not to. I If he was SUU in the mood he had been in last spring, he would probably think she was doing it just for effect. The days of swirling rain went on; and Mary Faith, at work in her office, could hear the drumming of the drops on her window all day long, beneath the tap-tap of her typewriter. The green-shaded lights were turned on in the middle of the afternoon, and it was dark by five o'clock when she left the office. One night Mark Nesbit’s car was just starting away from the curb as she stepped out of the front door of the building. It stopped, and his voice came to her through the wet and windy darkness. “Take you home. Miss Fenton?" He never called her anything but Miss Fenton. "No thanks, Mr. Nesbit.” she called back to him, and his car went on down the street. By the time she caught a street car she was soaked to tire skin and she sat, shivering and wondering if she had not been a fool to refuse his offer of a ride home. She hoped that Mr. Nesbit would not think that she had acted in a coy and kittenish way about it, and she half-wished that she had hopped into the car and ridden home with him. That would have been the natural and sensible thing to do. ... it was hard to figure out what was the natural and sensible thing to do when you were married to one man and working in another man's office. “Why don’t you get an out-and-out divorce, Mary Faith?” Mrs. Puckett asked her every few weeks. "This way you’re neither fish nor fowl nor (i-ood red herring. Neither a married wunsaa nor a grass widow—Mrs. Farrell here at the house and Miss Fenton at the office, and neither wife nor spinster really.” Until that rainy October night when Mark Nesbit offered to drive her home Mary Faith's position in the office had not bothered her. She had gone back to Nesbit's just as einiply as she had gone back to Mrs. Puckett’s—and it had seemed to be the place to go, probably because it was so easy to return to. She was no adventurer into places, and the thought of the familiar old office had been like the thought of a safe old harbor to her. November came in, colder than October and just as rainy. The baby could not go out for his daily airing, ; and Elsie reported every night that he had been restless and cross all day long. “If he were at home he could take his naps on the little screened porch,” thought Mary Faith, "and he could have the run of five or six rooms instead of being cooped up in one room almost all day.” She had come to hate the topfluut room with its windows that looked out toward the bare treetops of Haltnorth Park, and she lunged for the Wilton Street flat every hour of the day. She knew that all’uf the furniture had been moved out of it. and in all probability someone else was living in it now, aqd'yet she felt that it must still be there with its flowers blooming on the window tills and its rubber plant standing in the corner of the dining room and Kim’s coat hangn.g on the goldenoak coat-tree m the hall. The first snow came early that year, on the first Friday in November. It began to fall early in the afternoon and by four o’clock Mary

Ji AtitfSL Il /Mol Ki rW I .Aw ■a? * iis ii “Do you remember that I asked you to marry me that night?” Nesbit questioned.

Faith’s little room was filled with cold white snow-light that made it seem a different place altogether from the one it had been that morning. She was standing at the window, looking down into the transformed courtyard below, when the door of Mark Nesbit’s office opened and he came and stood beside her. “Almost three years since you and 1 were out in a snowstorm like this, isn’t it?” he asked. “Remember?” She did remember. It had been the night he asked her to marry him. She remembered it because it had been the night Kim came back to her after his first long desertion c£ her. They had sat in his little car outside Mrs. Puckett’s house and planned their future—and she had been so happy that it had seemed as though all the stars fell down and shattered in River Street that night. “Os course, I remember it, Mr. Nesbit." she said, and then she added quickly, nervously: “I do love this kind of day, don't you? It seems so absolutely clean, doesn’t it? Cleaner even than summer days when the sun comes out after a hard rain." "Do you remember that I asked you to marry me that night?” “Os course, I do.” Her lips had stiffened suddenly so that she could hardly speak and she could feel a flush going over her face. “It was a long time ago, wasn’t it, Mary Faith?” One of his hands slid along the window sill and covered one of hers. “Three years, you said.” She drew her hand from under his and began to back away from the window. She wished, just as she had wished it three years before, that Mark Nesbit would stay in his lofty place as president of the Nesbit Mercantile Company and forget that she was anything but his secretary. She thought that he had forgotten it. For seven months he had been so busi-ness-like. so matter of fact with her at all times that sometimes she wondered if he had ever been really in love with her. "Do you remember what i told you that night three years ago?” he was asking her now in a quiet heavy voice. She had sunk down on her chair behind her desk, and he was leaning over her. She sh’ook her head. All she remembered clearly of their conversation that night was that he had asked her tc marry him and she had refused him. And through her confusion she reflected that if it were

Kim asking her that question she could have told him every word he had said. She never forgot a syllable of Kim’s. “No. I don't remember, Mr. Nesbit It’s so long aero, isn’t it?” She threw out her ha uls, that were usually so capable and sure, in a helpless uncertain little movement “Well, 1 told you I’d probably feel about you all the rest of my life as 1 felt then." he said, "and I do. I knew it all the time you were away from this place—and. as soon as I heard from Migp Bartlett that you'd left your husband. I made up my mind to let you know just how things were with me.” He spoke in that same stilted heavy way as if he had thought out what he wanted to say and was trying to remember just how he had planned to say it. “If you hadn’t come down here to work, I had made up my mind to find you and tell you all this. Not just at first, of course. I thought I'd wait for a few months—and those few months have passed. When you are free. I’m going to ask you again if you'll marry me.” He stopped and seemed to be waiting for her to make some kind of an answer. But Mary Faith only stared at him, her eyes wide and dark in her face that had gone dead white. "And I think I ought to add,” he went on. “that I’d be glad to adopt your boy and help you bring him up.” He had thought of everything, evidently. "I should never have let this happen,” said Faith to herself. “I should have seen it coming—and gone away long ago." She should never have gone back to Nesbit's at all. She saw that now. . . . Well, she’d have io go as soon as she could. It would be impossible to face Mark Nesbit after this afternoon, That was certain. It was hard enough to face him now. She stood up to do it. her blue eyes level with his dark ones. “If I'd dreamed that you were still thinking about me like this, Mr. Nesbit. I’d never have come back here. But it all seemed So business like and ordinary at the time. Jean Bartlett was leaving and you needed someone to take her place—and I needed the place and the salary so badly—Did you tliluk I was getting a divorce?” She stopped abruptly as the telephone on her desk rang. fTo Be Continued* Copyright. 1931. by Beatrice Burton Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.
