The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1910-06-25


Cincinnati when Tony Mullane used to
switch arms and rest one by twirling
with t'other, there's an ambidextrous
twirler in major league company. His
name is Charles FTiene and he is
member of Connie Mack's Philadelphia
Athletics.
Friene first attracted attention as
ball player while pitching for Santa
Clara college, the institution which
produced Hal Chase, the wonderful
first sacker Of the New York High
landers. Then he broke into the Pa
cific Coast league, and a year ago
pitched a game for San Jose against
the Chicago White Sox, in which said
Sox looked like deck Of deuce spots.
They secured six scattered hits off the
youth who switches arms while
pitching
Whenever the opposing team threat
ems with batting rally, Friene 1ust
uses the other arm, and it is said that
this plan works as effectively as put
ting new pitcher in the box, with
the additional advantage that the old
one can be reinstated, as there is no
rule in baseball that a pitcher can't
change back to the arm he had been
using.
That Friene appears to have a good
brand of goods is evidenced by the
fact that Manager Connie Mack looked
him over for several weeks on the
spring training trip and then branded
him with a you'll do" Friene is still
with the Athletics. He is the only
ambidextrous finger in the major
leagues, and possibly in all leagues.
Gajoie is hitting the ball harder this
spring than he has in several years.
and the prediction is made that the
big Frenchman will lead the league
this year. Lajoie is said to be much
lighter than he has been in recent
years, and with the worry Of handling
the team shifted to Jim McGutre'g
shoulders, he is playing much better
ball. What is more, Mcclure is not
allowing Lajoie to play the hit-and-
run game as persistently as he used
to, thus handicappfng his hitting, for
on most occasions he had to hit at a
bad ball. Now Lajoie just waits for
what he wants and wallops, and he ia
getting hits in punches.

BALI that was destined to make him
famous.
And you should have seen the old
man. He never side-stepped a thing.
Shoot 'em in, me boy he would say.
Put something on 'em, Amos You're
working fine today That's the way;
straight across and fast
We'll, sir, it was a wonderful sight,
that middle-aged man in street clothes
and with his flowing whiskers of fiery
red, standing out there on that bis
tered field, ignoring the taunts and
jeers of the crowd, warming up his
beloved boy, Amos, who, even then,
was giant and a hurricane pitcher.
When the time for the game began
Rusie's father climbed back over the
rail. Amos went into tbs box, with
Buckley behind the bat and Louisville
was beaten to 0. When the last
one of the visitors had been retired
Rusie's father jumped back into the
field, took Amos by the arm and
walked with him to the dressing room.
It was a sentimental spectacle, the
solicitude of the great pitchers father
for his boy and his pride in the young
Hercules work
Poor Amos! Had he only stuck by
his good old father and ignored the al
legged friends who got him to travelling
in the broad road that leads to early
retirement, not to say disgrace, he
might be in the major league today as
famous and as popular as is old Cy
Young; earning $4,000 or $4,000 a
year instead Of digging bitches, as he
is, for $1.75 a day"

to be in the lobby at the time were startled
yesterday evening by the appearance or
well-dressed. middle-aged man who sent up to
a guest a card bearing the signature Johh

The clerk gave the alarm, although involun-
tarily. When he first picked up the card and
read the name he nearly tainted. The news
spread rapidly and before the man was out
of sight in the elevator crowd had collected
Some waited patiently; others craned their
necks up the elevator shaft in an effort to
catch a glimpse, while others went outside and
looked up at the window where the august

Finally a newspaper man with his faithful
camera assistant at his heels went up to the
room to unearth him. There the mystery was

CITY BRIEFS

BY chance the other day overheard
two young men talking. Conversation
was on Christmas. Both seemed un-
decided as to what would be a nice
gift for their best girls. A chum of
the girls happened to pass. She
stopped and said, "Why, boys, what
are you looking so serious about?"
One Of them spoke and said. 1--WE are
debating what to buy Marjorie and
Lucille for Christmas" That's easy.
Let me tell you Just what they are
longing for. Beautiful pair of opera
glasses" Bob said, where will we
find the Lemaire make? You know
that Is a Partisan make and none
better" The young woman piloted
them to the Whitley Jewelry Co:
There they saw the finest and largest
stock in the city. White and oriental
pearl, with pearl, gold and nickel bars,
pearl and gold tubes with and without
handles. Also pearl opera glasses with
black trimmings. How can I tell a
Lemaire glass? Why, every pair bears
their trademark-a Bee" on under side
of middle bar. On advice of the young
woman they purchased the glasses.
Much to their surprise they found
that each pair was encased in beau
tiful plush, silk-lined bag. They said
"Well, Whitley's never do anything
by halves" Before leaving the store
their attention was called to the BIZ
nocular field glasses. They are also
made by Lemaire, have prismatic lens,
double adjustment, with morocco cyl
inders and japanned, metalled, and
magnify twelve times. AS the young
men had planned to attend the auto
races at Santa Monica, they each in
vested in a pair of binoculars-scme-
thing they will always have.
I hope the opera glass gift sugges-
tion will appeal to many others. Don't
forget that Whitley's absolutely have
the largest stock to select from. See
them early.

FEBRUARY MAY Be
AERO CLUB DATE
ORGANIZATION Receives a Request
That Local Contests Be Held
After Northern Meet
WOMAN PILOT SENDS TERMS
Aerial Exhibition Under Private
Auspices Is Scheduled for
Month of January
WOMAN PILOT SENDS TERMS

Plans for the announced aviation
meet, to be held here some time this
winter, under the auspices of the CALI
fornia Aero club, are again in some
what chaotic condition as a result OF
two difficulties, the first and most I'M
portant being a lack of money with
which to finance the project. This OBJ
stacle, however, the club hopes to meet
through the organization of business
mems committee. which is expected to
make arrangements for meeting the
expenses. This committee will consist
of twenty men selected from the city
at large, together with five represent
ing the California Aero club. The cluo
members are H. Law. Twining, George
b. Harrison, Earl Remington, Charles
Z. Rilliet and Buel H. Green. Mr.. Ri
lfet is named as treasurer and Mr..
Green as secretary.
The second obstacle in the way of the
meet as already planned developed yes
terday when a request was received
from San Francisco asking that the
Los Angeles contests be postponed un-
til after the meet Of the city by the
Golden Gate. which will be held from
January is to January 81. This request
probably will be granted by the local
committee, and the meet here be set for
February to 10.
Meantime it is said arrangements
for another meet, to be conducted under
private auspices, are making gooo
headway, and that whether or not the
Aero club plans mature, Los Angeles
will have at least one big meet which
will bring here the foremost OF the
worlds air men. An official of the Pa
cifc Electric road said yesterday that
this much is assured. 1t is reported
that several of the best known Ameri-
can and European aviators already are
under contract to come here, and that
they will not be seen under Aero cluo
auspices. The big meet will be held in
January, with perhaps a preliminary
elimination contest next month for fly
ers who still have their regulations to
make.
The California Aero club has received
letters from three English ayiators-

Admiral Confesses He Has a Lot
to Learn About Car

II find 1t a blamed sight harder to

months ago, and ever since has been
trying to learn 1t thoroughly. He came

of the Loyal Legion at the Alexandria
