“If women were umpiring none of this [rowdyism] would happen. Do you suppose any ball player in the country would step up to a good-looking girl and say to her, You color- blind, pickle-brained, cross-eyed idiot, if you dont stop throwing the soup into me Ill distribute your features all over you countenance! Of course he wouldnt.”

“I think I could . . .
if Id been different, or wise, or calm,
I think I could have charmed the table,
the stained dish or the hand of the dealer.
But its done.
Its all used up.”
