DETROIT PLAYERS
 STILL ON STRIKE
Ban Johnson Stands by His Action
 in Suspending Ty Cobb.

Philadelphia, May 1s.-Ban Johnson. president of tue American league, ar rived here today to investigate tho strike by the players of the Detroit club. and found no change in the situ- ation. MT. Johnson said he stin stood by his action in suspending Ty Cobb. which caused the revolt of the play CTS, and the latter say they will refuse to play for Detroit unless the suspen- sion is lifted.
 The Detroit players held a meeting today and while no public announce ment was made several of the players said that they would stick togethaT" and unless Cobb was reinstatSd ths team would not play tomorrow. The | players insist that Cobb was fully jus | tified in hitting the spectators. | Philadelphia, May 19.-rhere will bs no game at the local American league 1 grounds tomorrow between the Phila- | delphia and Detroit teams. This con clusion was reached late today when a conference between Johnson Of ths l American league and Manager Mack of 1 the Athletics, after it became apparent that President Navln of the DetHod ( club would not arrive in this city in time to adjust matters with his play CTS who have refused to play ball until Ty Cobb is reinststed.
 President Johnson issued a can to- night for a meeting of the American league presidents in this city on Tuas day. He said the call was issued for the purpose of devising means of "se curing players to take the places Of the men who have broken their con tracts with the Detroit club"
 Commenting upon the situation Manager Mack said:
 
 We have no desire to take advan tage of the unfortunate position of ths owners Of the Detroit club, broughi about by circumstances which they could not control. On Saturday we were placed in a difneult position. Un til the hour officially set for the begin ming of the play we were not certain that the regular Detroit team would not play, and we would have beer subject to a severe penalty if we had pursued any course other than What we did The Athletics are not desirous of winning games from scrub team, and for that reason the Farno sched. uled for tomorrow was called on.-

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please give

ID asked a boy 10 my sorority

me out. We go TO the same school
and are good friends. Should l ask
him TO an initiation at my house? He
is pledged to a frat and his brothers
will come.
(2)-I am 16. Am I old enough to
write TO boy who is away at school?
(3)-What would you suggest for
eats" at an initiation? Something
new.
Ozone Of my brothers frat broth
ers goes to the same school that do.
meet him in the hall after every
study. He firts with me and has told
his mother I have beautiful eyes.
Should ! speak TO him or wait till we
are introduced? Our mothers are
good friends and we go to the same

G-The boy perhaps doesn't know
manners" He certainly ought to
have paid his party call. Ask your
brother whether he thinks the boy
should be invited or not. (2)-Yes, Il
you write merely friendly letters and
your mother knows Of your CORES

pickles, Ice cream with oyster patties
chocolate with grapes, etc. Give &
fork with the ice cream, a knife, fol
the chocolate. spoons for the pie. etc
II would be fun.

Probably your brother or one OF tn,

Get one OF them TO introduce him u
