NOISES ABOUT GARAGES.
Carelessness of Chauffeurs Often the
Cause of Disturbances.

The undoubted ill favor in which
garages are held in residential districts
Is due in large measure 10 causes that
can be removed, IN most cases, py the
exercise of authority and a little in
eenuity on the part of the garage
management. says the Motor World
One prolific source of disturbance and
probably the most unpleasant. is the
raucOuS sounding of the automobile
horn by the chauffeur who, arriving at
the garage, finds the doors closed and
takes such method of expressing his
desire that they be opened. If his sig
nal is not heard or needed at once, it
is repeated, with ever increasing Yigor.
until the car is admitted.
At this season of the year, when
garage doors are kept closed at all
hours to exclude the cold air, the horn
footing nuisance is at its worst, and at
certain hours is sufficient to constitute
- public nuisance. Another effective
murderer of peace is the turmoil caused
by the opening of the muffier cutOut
when a car mounts the short. sharp
grade that is frequently found at the
garage entrance. Rather than take the
trouble TO change the low gear the
chauffeur opens his exhaust TO the at
uOsphere in order TO realize the added
power which he fancies cutting OUT
gives to his motor; and the fusiIlate
that follows is second only to the
clamor of the horn in its nerve rack
ing or sleep dispelling power.
Although existing conditions do not
are good reasons why garage proprie-
tors should not permit such state OF
affairs to exist. The good Will of
neighboring residents is assuredly of
value, for many are potential, If not
actual, customers, and prejudice. easily
aroused, is difficult to allay. More
over, organized opposition to a public
nuisance can make much trouble, even
to the extent of causing arrests or
forcing the removal of the offending
establishment IN case of persistent
nlisdeeds. And this horn blowing
nuisance is so necessary and so preva-
lent that the wonder is that garage
owners Will suffer it to continue when
il holds promise of so much trouble
for themselves, when it so easily may
be abated

Decoration day, May 30y 1912, is des-
tined 10 he even greater than the first

the event is more than five months

GAINOR'S INJURY
LOST FLAG TO DETROIT.
Real Reason Why Detroit Was Not
Top Notchers. Says Cobb.

The great yTy Cobb. while playing
J PittsburE on his present theatrica-
| venture, recently RECALLED Smoky City
| rews readers by a little inside dope as
to just why Detroit didn't win that
| 1911 pennant- Cobb was especially
emphatic in his claims that Jennings
| showing. \ writer of the Sporting
Ncws gives the following views of
Tyrus on the matter:
You have probably heard JENNINGS
blamed for the poor showing made by
| the Tigers last season" said Ty, but
l want 10 set him right before the
! world. Jennings was not in the least
to blame for the finish of the Detroit
team. Davy Jones, in a series of arti-
cles given to an eastern paper early
II the fall. said that Jennings had not
worked his pitchers properly. and that
he was wholly to blame for the failure
% the Detroiters to win the American
league pennant. Now ii seems to me
bad grace the part of Jones to
knoclS~Hushe in any way. for you can
take it from me that no member of the
Detroit outfit was ever more royalty
treated by the manager than was
Jones. Why. To be candid, Jennings
sent Matty Mcintyre to the White Sox
just so that Davy could have a free
rein.
Jennings is one Of the grandest fig
ureS in the realm OF baseball today
and no one who really knows him can
truthfully say one word against him.
Ployers in baseball but l never want
to work for a better man than Hughey.
He knows exactly how to treat his men
and the tosser who really tries to do
his work will never have any ground
for complaint on the way he is handled
by Jennings. For a team Of the
strength of the Tigers we pulled some
pretty raw stuff on occasions last sea-
son, yet there never was a time when
Jennings forgot to be the gentleman
with all of us Every manager who is
ambitious IS more or less of hard
loser. but Hughey can see defeat star
ing him in the face with much better
grace than many of his colleagues.
AS a matter of fact, the Detroit
team lost out last season because
Gainor was hurt. We We're going fine
Il when he met with his serious acct
dent. We had won % games and lost
Eut six up to that time, and / actually
believe but for that one thing the
a thletics would never have figured in
the worlds championship series with
the New York Giants. Gainor was a
veritable tower OF strength at first
t2se. When he was hurt Hughey was
compelled to make q switch. Della
hantv was sent to the initial sack. a
POSITION. with which he was not at all
familiar. He did his best, but the
change knocked the confidence of many
OF the players in the head, and our
was badly crippled. Some of
the boys played ahead as If nothing
had ever happened. but others gave
way in despair. and we lost out. Thai
IS all there was to it. and Jennings
should not be held responsible

cross-country Good for Runners.

Opinions differ as to whether cross
country running is beneficial to men
who also go in for track athletics.
Many Instances can be given to Illus
trate the advantages that some track
men have derived from chasing over
hill and dale. John Paul Jones of
Cornell, the greatest mile runner, and
almost as great at the half-mile dis
lance, is an example Of what cross
country running has done. Take the
work of Capt Putnam of Cornell, also.
He finished second in last years inter-
collegiate half mile event, while Floyd
Jones, the old Penn man, after WIN
ming the intercollegiate cross country
championship In 1906. won the inter
collegiate half mile championship in
1908 There are other athletes who owe
their success to cross country running
and the opinion Of many coaches is
that every athletic, whether a sprinter
or a field man, can derive benefit by
doing cross country work in the off
season.
