Napoleon Of the Ball FiieId
Started III as a Cab ID river

& He drove a cab one time and had
to hustle to lnakesa living. He never
had any idea that he would be any,
thing else than a cab driver until he
mingled with the small kids around
the baseball lot. Then he got to be a.
professional ball player, and forgot All
about the cab business. and when he
phia club of the National league In
1895 and pounded the ball for an nNet,.
age of 1928, away went the cab. and
Larry Lajoie, better known among tbs
baseball world as Napoleon, was on.
his. way. to make one of the creates,
baseball players that ever pulled on
a uniform In those 10 years this big,
fellow has dealt the ball some awful
wallops.
Hitting was always the strong point
in the manager of the Cleveland club
The first year that he was at the top
in the batting list in the American
league he had an average OF .42...
They may talk about their Ed Del.
1lantys and their Sam 1Fhompsons,
who We're noted for their pounding Of.
the ball but Lajoie could hit them as
hard assany one living, His Off years
5WeIcElIl f1SUi ana tl9VS, WlleU e :hau an
average OF .299 and .2a6. These We're
the only years that he has hit under
300. II some OF the present players
in the game had those kind of off years
they would be tickled to DEATH
The second, sackers OF the Cleveland
club is on his way this season to have
another great year in the hitting line.
He moves around the ball field like 4,
player, who had that don't-care feeling.
and a number Of fans who don't know
a player personally were Of the opinion
that he was possessed Of tile swell
head. But that's the wrong dope
Every ball player has his peculiarities
Larry makes many a hard play look

.KETCHEL STOCK DOWN
WHEN TALKING JOHNSON

= X :.
On all sides you hear the question
asked, will the Ketchel-Jack johnson
fight be carried outas originally PLAN
ned, in view of the showing that Ketch-
el made against Billy Papke?"
1t Is a question somewhat hard 10 an
swer says Harry Smith Of San Fran
cisco. Promoter Coffroth and Manager
Willis Britt, representing ketche, de-
clare omphatically& that the fight Will
take place in October as originally
planned and go so far as to state that
even had the fight ended in Ketchel
being knocked out the heavyweight
match would in no way have been in
terfered With. IL
Public opinion, however, counts for.
something when the box office receipts
are to be considered, and the indica-
lions are that neither Coffroth nor tho
! fighters will rush headlong into the
matter, without first having given the
rnlddle-weight champion another test
| TO prove his right to meet Jack john.
| son.
Before the fight of,July 5 there We're
many who gave Ketchel u mighty good
chance OF beating Johnson They fig
ured him a good ring general and
| "a man with SO remarkable punch.
that Johnson would not be able to stand
| against him. Those same fight fans,
| however. when they looked at Papke
and Ketchet, shook their heads when
| TWAS suggested to them that Ketchel5
would stand a good chance against the
negro.

the boys game, the game to play, ana
the game to enjoy with others; the
game for the amateur and the sport
for the scientific professional; the
game that teaches a moral lesson as
well as teaches the American youth
how to meet opposition and keep their
heads. Often 10000 games are played
in one day, and the little live wires Of
Japan are gradually developing the
fine points until they threaten to beat
the Americans at their own game.
Not long ago met a Catholic priest
just from the Hawaiian Islands, and he
Uniformed me thatf.tlle boys Of hat
country were fully as clever at base
ball as the boys of the United States.
College teams took vacation trips to
Japan to play series of games with
the college boys OF that country
And now let me say Il few words for
two Of the men who did much for the
game. The light has gone out for one
more man who made baseball q pro-
nounced success for Frank G. Selee
obeyed the commands Of the Great
Umpire on last Monday morning at
Denver. f5
Mr.. Selee belonged to the same
school as the late Harry Wright. AL
ways holding the supreme respect of
his players as well as genereals as
Sociates Mr.. Selee's methods We're a
perfect copy of those used by Harry
Wright. and both men proved their
methods to be the best for the uplift-
ing of the game as wellas in Develop
ing great ball teams.
WRIGHT A FAMOUS PLAYER.
The only difference was that Wright
was a fine ball player, trained to the
life from boyhood as his father was
Il famous English cricketer, while. Mr.
5Selee picked up his early knowledge
of the game from the playing offthe
Boston team. under the handlig of the
great Wright.
Mr.. 5Selee proved theiexception to the
rule, for he made q pronounced sue
cess with little knowledge of the In
side workings OF the business, while
Harry Wright was Tie real father Of
professional ball and did more than
any man living or dead in promoting
the great game. ig
In the early '7Os Harry Wright won
championships like breaking sticks at
the old South End battlefield. while
Frank Selee, 20 years later, developed
great ball teams on the same grounds.
And the signal feature of all these
great Boston teams was the clean cut
and scientific playing; of the combina
tons, as Well as the behavior of the
men connected with the clubs, for no
one ever accused clubs working under
Wright and Selee of anything but
clean cut methods. Neither would
stand for umpire batting. nor would
they stand for dissipation among the
men. Messrs. Wright and Seleei al
ways stood as personal examples.

ENF0RCEs BASEBALL
RULE SIX YEARS OLD.

Louisville baseball players and cx-
perts on the technicalities of the ma
tional game agree that a decision by
Umpire Clarence Owens here, which
gives Louisville the winning run, is
unique.
Peitz was at bat for Louisville, with
two on bases. McSuldy. pitcher for
Toledo, aftersa conference with Catcher
Land. decided to give PETIT his base.
Three wide ones We're thrown to Peitz.
and before the fourth was pitched Land
deli berately stepped "out of line" and
received an exceptionally wide throw
Owens promptly called it a balk and
signalled Sullivan on third to come In,
with what proved to be Lpuisvile's
winning run.
The rule on which Owens based his
decision was passed six years ago, and
had never been enforced before

could not have made the journey to
the pole and returned with such a
quantity of supplies.
If Cook concocted a scheme to
bunco the whole world, he must have
taken a gamblers chance that Peary
would return defeated from his quest
of the pole, and that there would be
no contradictory evidence.
Cooks side of this new phase of
the case will be furnished within a
few days, presumably, and until then
the public can afford to suspend
Judgment. But on the face of it.
Peary appears to have convicted
Cook of having engaged in the
most colossal fake of the ages.

FURNISHING THE BOYS ROOM.
Simplicity of Arrangement and ser"-
iceability of Color the Keynote.

The BOYS room should, by all means,
and even at the expense of sacrifice
in other directions, be as large as
possible. Abundant space is a great
good for everybody, but the boy has
even more need of it than his sister
TO whom usually is allotted the sec
ond best bedroom of the average fam
iiv house. The manifold interests and
activities of the boy should be pro-
vided for. His collections. his print
ing press. his magic lantern, fishing
tackle, books. baseball bats, mitts and
masks, skates, hockey sticks and
pucks, foils, etc. should, if possible,
be all gathered into his own domain,
and not scattered in various places
about the house, where he cannot in
Justice be expected to be solely re-
sponsible for their care, as he should
be. An extra closet or an arrange
ment of built-in cabinets and shelves,
ample in space, easy to get at and to
see into, with no curtains or glass
doors, should provide for all these
things in such way as to make hab-
its of order possible.
A cool color suitable for a boys
room is a medium green, neither
sharp and blue on the one hand nor
muddy brown on the other. II the
treatment of the well spaces was very
plain. and the total effect restful. the
boys love of red might very well re-
ceive attention in the minor furnish
ings, or dull. soft yellow would make
a good combination.
The floor covering should be as low
toned in relation to the rest of the
furnishings as is consistent with the
practical problem of keeping it clean.
yet sufficiently dark to give a feeling
of the greatest color weight being I'M
der foot, and not about or above ones
head. Its color would of course be
determined by the other furnishings:
its material should be stout and
heavy enough to prevent its being
