Hypnotized By Pitched Ball Some Great Players
Who Can't Duck Out of the Way
BY TIP WRIGHT.

Hypnotized by a pitched ball,
unable to duck or dodge out of
the way of rib-cracking heaves
from the pitchers box.
That's what's the matter with
Frank Chance, peerless leader"
of the, Chicago Cubs, who has been
out of the game much of the sea-
son with bad headaches. Another
hypnotized victim of the pitched
ball is Elberfield, of the Washing
ton American league team. But
Elberfield has not been driven to
the bench yet. ysd7f
Chance was "beaned" "a times
owing to his inability to aget out
of the way and Elberfield nhasn't
counted smashes. g4Tag
Both men have painstaking1y
explained to the members of their
own teams and to other players
that they can not dodge IAN ap-
preaching ball. For tifhee this
talk was accepted as an excuse,
designed to let them" crowd the
plate, but as time went by, the
fact that it was the truth became
apparent. Their team mates took
1t for granted that the men were,
for some reasone helpless to- move.
Connie Mack says that ywhen,
at first. Elberfield was hit so often
the umpires refused to let him
have his base unless he was hit
hard enough to take away the sus-
picion that he was trying to let
the ball Craze him. The "Tabas-
co Kid" was accused of letting the
ball hit him in order to get his
base. D.
I'VE argued with Elberfeld,
asking him why he permitted him
self to be hit SO often and he would
say, Honest fellows I can't help
it. l go up there every day de-
termined to duck when l see the
ball coming at me, but can't get
away from it. It's Just as IL /
was hypnotized."
This explains why the American

The second type is called the

Every woman should have

Bear we'll in mind, iladi, that your
shoulders will not be smooth as

After you know that the skin

"Under the law he is entitled to his
meals at any hour he wants them.
"He may select such food as ne
chooses. II he wants one food and
his wife another, the husbands de-
cision goes.

band object must be discharged.
Finally, man, who pays the bills,
and not woman, is boss"

WOMAN FAN ANfUCK.
Kills Three Children and Ended Her
Own Life by Hanging.

Crazed by heat, Mrs. Maud Nc
Crary, of Los Angeles, Cal, killed
her three small children and ended
her own life in a vacant house at
Lockney, Texas, Friday. This be-
came known Saturday when search
inc party secured the countryside for
the woman and children, thinking
they had become lost, found the bod
les Of the childr@n in weeds near the
vacant house and the body Of the
mother hanging to an unused wind
mill at the rear. Mrs. McCrary was
in Texas on a visit to her mother.
Friday Mrs. McCrary went out OF
her mothers hcu unobserved and
with the children, sought seclusion in
the deserted house, some distance
from Mrs. Hamiiton's residence. The
house is a two-story structure. Ap-
parently, Mrs. McCreary took the
children one at time into seperate
rooms upstairs where she cut their
throats with broken glass taken from
windows and tossed the bodies into
weeds outside.
The children's ages were three
years, five years and three months,
respectively. The woman left a note
stating that no one was to blame eX-
cent herself, but the wording caus-
'ed the belief that she was temporarily
insane from the excessive heat which
prevailed during the last few days.
