giv«m homage. Joe Di Maggio artaally must wonder how long a soft touch like baa<-ball haa been going on. He never had the weary, dreary years In the minors. Within three brief seasons he proved himself ready for tbe majors, where the pay Is good, the living comfortable. He never had the bard, king pull for recognition. After that one season in lhe mtnora he moved right into the llneiup of the Yankees, the richest. ! moat successful club In baseball ' Ilia every season in the majors haa been climaxed by a world series engagement. and most of the play- | era In baseball would think fate | had done Its bit to get them in one i world series And all the aeries have lieen winning ones, with Joe getting tbe gold and glory that goes to the star of the victorious team. He haant missed an all-star game, either. He made II hla first year. |aa a rookie, and he han made It ever since. And Di Maggio la really just beginning With average luck he can look forward to 10 or more years of flrat (lass baseball With better than average luck he can look forward to 15 more years under the big top And with top billing, too. He has everything that he wants, even love. Yea. dear old. sweet old. boy and girl love. He to engaged to the girl he considers tbe “only girl In the world,' and will be married soon after lhe World Series In October, Wish to hell I had taken up baseball. o— T “a<to I" a Good Town — Oecatu-
