Detroit's Action
Declared Right

CINCINNATI. o.. Dec. 24.-The
National Commission has decided that
Player John Onslow. who played last
season with the Dallas club and who
was drafted on Sept. / by the Detroit
club. should remain either with the
Detroit club or any club TO which he
should be sent
The case came up after query
had been addressed TO the commission
by the Dallas club. II is claimed that
when Onslow was drafted he was per
mitted to go and that the Detroit club
paid Dallas for him. However, De-
troit has since released him TO a class
b club and the Dallas officials have
asked that a finding be ruled upon
by the commission covering this case.
The commission therefore says that
the transfer was all right, even though
Dallas Is a class G organization.

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.--It is an open

the conservative automobile racers,
however, that Oldfeld can success

Jeane Elizabeth Wier, curator Of

came recently and with ii a letter
from Mrs. Clara Ossip Gabrilowiteh,

loved writer.
In her letter sending the relic to
Miss Weir. Madam Gabrilowitch
states that she is very glad to send
the souvenir As | know that he was
very much Interested in the Nevada
Historical Society,"
The pipe is not exactly a thing of
beauty, but it must have been re-
garded as a JOY forever by the
humorist. for it bears internal evil
dence of constant usage. II is a
black bTier. with an amber stem
much on the order of the English

fact thar it was Mark Twain's pipe.
