The overwhelming popularity of Chrysler Fluid Drift makes it natural that various kind* of "liquid" and "automatic” drives should now appear.

It I* not the worst crime that l-eo the Lip could commit against the peace and security of the people of Brooklyn, but it certainly I* certainly I* next to th.- worst. The unpardonable sin. of courae. would be for him to put on a New York Giants suit even If It was only forth.- sake of art In that earthly paiadlse of Hollywood where all men are brave, all women are beau Hful and salaries start at flo.tmo a week. Forced to the wall and threaten-1 cd with torture If they didn't tell all, the Hollywood pres* agent* ad- ' milled Durocher had been signed for a picture based on the career of the late Lou Gehrig Du rochet and Gehrig were teammate* on tb<Yanken. back in 1927-28-21* and In this picture the Lip will portray himself a* a young, aggressive I shortstop. The years have had their evil way with the Lip's hair, and report* from the wonderful city of Hollywood are that lhe make-up department already ha* m> asured him for a toupee. New* that Durocher intended to ' appear In public attired In a Yankee uniform reached Mr. Frank Swataka. a rabid Brooklyn fan. at a lime when he had just deposited a dime on the bar for a beer. He wa* so axtounded by the new* that he made no protest whatsoever 1 when your agent offered to pay for the libation. "Thanks." said Mr. Swataka. quickly convoying his dime back Into his pocket and taking a long reflective elp. "The Lip In pitcher*. huh? Borne guys have all the luck, don't they? Think of the Lip kissing them Crawford* and Turn er* and lx>y* and getting flood dough tor it. Me. I'd be a volunteer.” It was explained to Mr. Bwataka that the Lip's role probably would not call for him to go through any semes depleting the sweet uur render of love. He would be a bail player but a ball player wearing th.- New York Yankees' uniform. "Them Yankee*!" exploded Mr. Hwataka “Lucky stiffs. Why If Fili hadn’t got himself hit on the leg by a line drive In the thold game, we would have moldt-red ..." It required andother 10-cent Investment In lager by your agent to divert him from that line of reasoning and return him to the matter of the Yankee uniform. He considered It silently for about half a fllflM. “I seen funny things In pitchers." said Mr. Hwataka. "but I never thought I'd see the Lip in a Yankee suit. What us guys won't - do to that Lip next summer when he comes out to coach.” We asked quickly, "you mean the ... ” “The bold," said Mr. Hwataka, ■ "hut good.” A dreamy look came into his i «yss as he continued: "Yeah.
