Aug. 13. The world '.series of 1928 will begin on Wed I nesday, October 3, at the grounds of j the club winning the American j league championship, the Associated Press learned Sunday. The opening game automatically fell to the Am erican league this year under the al ternation plan formulated by the late Charles H. Ebbets, and the dates for the series were, agreed upon last week by the officials concerned. The schedule agreed upon calls for games in the American league park on Wednesday and Thursday, Octo ber 3 and 4, with a day to travel intervening before the battle Is re sumed in John Heydler's sector "if a western club wins the National league pennant." If two eastern teams play for the championship, the series will begin on October 3 and continue without a break until one team has won the requisite four games. The breaks of the schedule under the Ebbets plan this, year are such that the Athletics,' the only pennant possibility lunable to play Sunday games at home, would not draw a sabbath date in anj of the several charts likely to be ordered. Commis sioner Landis is empowered under the Ebbets plan to alter the sched ule to permit a Sunday game which otherwise be lost through a lay-over in a non-holiday city. One regulation in the Ebbets plan seldom pointed out is that which provides for the same schedule ar rangements even with two teams from the same city playing in the series. While only the Yankees and the Athletics were concerned in the Am erican league consideration of the coming series, it is understood that five National league clubs joined in the discussion.

New York, Aug. 12. Rev. John Roach Straton, pastor of Calvary Baptist church, in a message read by his son, Hillyer, from his father's pulpit tonight, refused to meet Gov. Alfred E. Smith in debate in that edifice. The younger Straton conducted the evening service in the absence of his father, who is at his summer home at Greenwood Lake, N. Y. "I stand ready to meet the gover nor any time, except the Lord's day and in any suitable place," Dr. Strat on wrote, "and I sincerely hope that he may be led to take my acceptance of his challenge at its face value." Dr. Straton said his remark that "he would meet the governor face to face" in Calvary Baptist church to repeat his charges that Governor Smith is "the deadliest foe of moral progress in the country," was in the nature of a Joke, as he knew the trustees of the congregation would hntrn 4 Vi a loot r-ohntlt 110111!? thfi church for "a purely political dis-, cussion." ' Dr. Straton added that the story of his agreement to meet Governor Smith in his church was published in New York erroneously, and as the result of a misunderstanding because of poor telephone connection when he dictated a statement to the news papers. In the statement read by his son. Dr. Straton did not ofTer a specific place for the proposed debate. The pulpit of Calvary Baptist church was used as the rostrum for a debate between Dr. Straton and William A. Brady, theatrical mag nate, when the minister opposed him in a debate on the theater.

In fact, most of the women seeking divorces from errant hus bands are unrouged and unpowdered. Dr. Nellie B. Cooper of Memphis told the American Cosmeticians' society Monday at its convention. I "A beautiful soul, a way with 'children, and ability-to keep house may induce Saint Peter to open the pearly gates to faithful eves, but they will never overcome th handicap of a Khinv Tinse. in the view of a faetl- J dious husband," Dr. Cooper declared.
