By Joe Williams “Streets of Paris” Hot-Spot of Fair m • a Max Baer. Ring Star, Likes It, Too 9 m m Pyle’s Human Ash Can Goes on Strike

C CHICAGO, July B.—Together with Timothy Mara of New York, a A brother scientist and philosopher, I was taking a long whirl at the world fair in Chicago Friday. Precisely, Mara and myself were headed for the hall of science to give ourselves over to an orgy of exploration in mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology. Also, a good cold glass of beer wouldn't go so bad. We had been told that the hall of science was the one exhibit that should not be missed, particularly if you were interested in the emotional moods of light beams, the home life of molecules, the development of petroleum and the cell theory of plant and animal existence. We were making pretty good progress when a large illuminated sign greeted our eyes—" The Streets of Paris.” Ever been to Paris?” asked Mara. % 'No.” Even scientists and philosophers need mental relaxation, so for 40 cents apiece we found ourselves in Paris. There was Harry's New- York bar. Joe Zelli's royal box, care de la Paix, strolling artists, gendarmes, peep shows, Apaches. On a street corner a Van Dyked Frenchman from the south side was selling bags of French fried potatoes. This is the real McCoy,” murmured Mara, wholly convinced and I found it easy to agree with him. a a a a a a A FAMILIAR looking figure, broad shouldered and bareheaded, loomed in the distance. By his side walked one of the entertainers, a lovely maiden in veils and drapes. 'Ain't that ?” began Mara. ‘T's nobody else,” I confided. And sure enough it was Max Baer, the prize fighter, doing Paris for 40 cents and obviously doing all right. "When did you yokels get over?” laughed Baer. "Say, from now on I'm a Frenchman. You guys can have America. If there was anything like this in China, I’d be a Chinaman.” The place is the hottest spot on the midway. It’s a lurid copy of Paris night life—or rather Paris night life as imagined by the boobery. Up to Friday night, almost 2,000,000 people had paid to walk through the village with its phonographic deceits and bawdy excitements. a a a a a a \\ JE had promised Cash and Carry Pyle that we w’ould drop in to see V him on our way to the hail of science on account of the fact that Pyle had added another highly educational feature to his theater of terror, namely, the human ash can. T)o you wish to see a human ash can?” I asked Mara, feeling that we ' had already sunk awfully low. * I "I do not wish to see any kind of ash can,” answered Mara with firmness, "and that, includes Mr. Pyle.” But somehow or other we got there anyway and Pyle was in a lather of feverish indignation, "Can you imagine that ash can of mine? All day long he swallows old nuts, bolts, tin cans and broken glass and when he gets a headache and can’t go on I give him a pain-remover tablet—and what do you think happens? The guy chokes on it. and then claims I'm trying to poison him.”' By this time it is getting late and I suggest to Mara that if we do not hurry we will not get to see the hall of science. ' Will you put that in writing?" pleaded Mara—who when last seen was paying a return visit to the Streets of Paris.

himself. The Indians launched their attack early and their biggest stanza was the third when they sent five runs clattering over the plate. Fact is, the Hoosiers scored in every inning except the fourth. Duster Mails and Lou Fette were the K. C. hurlers made victims of the Tribe slaughter. Pete Daglia went the route for the Indians and although hit. hard at times the big fellow always had a lead after the third round.

The Tribesmen are six games back of the league-leading Columbus Birds. Sigafoos Poles Double Frank Sigafoos and Dudley Lee solved K. C. pitching for three blows apiece and one of Frank’s safeties went for two bases. He was held hitless on Thursday. Connatser, with two triples, and Schino, with a triple and single, were the leading swatters for the Blues. The home runs by Cooney and Chapman were inside-the-park wallops and if there had been a Hoosier cheering section there would have been good cause for loud yells as the Tribe speedsters made the circuit of the paths. Mails was knocked off the rubber in the Tribe third-inning assault and Fette toiled the remainder of the tvay. The Indians played errorless ball supporting Daglia and the Blues committed two miscues.
