I TELIA

By RICHARD JOSEPH THE WHOLE WORLD AWAITS the two-week or three-

week vacationist. Literally,

Before the war the average traveler had to consider two

factors in planning his vacation

How much time it took to get

where he wanted to go. How much it would cost him to- get

there. The air age has just about eliminated the first factor from your consideration. Since you can now fly around the globe on commercial airlines In less than five days, a good part of the world is now..open tothe two-week vacationist with a yen to cover ground In a hurry and an income large enough to pay for it. The cost? Can you afford to spend $150 on your vacation? Or, to put it another way, could you save $3 a week for a year for your holiday? . Well, for $150—833 a week —you can cross one of the world’s most dramatic frontiers and spend two weeks in one of the most “different” civilizations on earth. You can speak (or try to speak) a différent language, eat different food, hear different music, live in a truly different world in the hills and

“jungles. and “the. tropical

coasts of Mexico, “: Once you're in Mexico you can live nicely for $5 a day, and that's for room and

meals. You ean thank the de-

valuation of the peso for that bargain. Before the war the peso used to be worth 20

-cents, so that you bought

slightly less than five pesos for your dollar. Now it will bill you almost nine pesos. ‘Prices have gone up, cer-tainly=-but not that much. You can estimate that your dollar is worth about 150 per cent of its pre-war value.

Start From Gateway

RIGHT HERE is the place to remind you that vacation tours abroad usually start from one of several American gateway cities. The cost of transportation from your home to that gateway city is NOT included in the cost of the trip. New York is the most important of all the gateway cities. Transportation people consider New York the gateway to Western Europe, $candinavia,: . thea Mediterranean, the Near East and

« Africa.

what baseball was all about.

A purposeful lass, Patty decided to find out for herself. She asked the advice of The Times Woman's Page and soon was traveling the route to baseball wisdom. First, Départment took over. There Bill Eggert, who “covered” the Indians on their spring training tour, taught Patty how to keep a box score, drew a baseball diamond and traced a hypothetical player from first to home base, He told her Indianapolis was a member of the American Association, one of the top minor leagues, The league's eight teams (oth- ~ “Tern are Minfigapolis, St. PHU Kins Louisville, Milwaukee, Columbus and Toledo) play a 154-game season.

Patty went out to the field early so she could meet the Tribe manager, Al Lopez. He showed her the Governor's Trophy, which Indianapolis won last year by copping the Little World Series, and the other prizes the team has been awarded. FEager-eyed Patty talked with some of the players, too, before the Culley Rikard and Tom Saffell explained the fine points of their fielding positions, and autographed a baseball for her. She bought peanuts, hot dogs and “Cokes” to help her through the depressing moments when the Indians were behind.
