FRESHEST CUBS IN
NATIONAL LEAGUE

PITTSBURG. Mar. 3o.--Two young
ball players who will be heard from
this season are Walter Rehg of the
Pitsburg Pirates and George Whitfield
of the ST. Louis Cardinals, not alone
for their playing ability, but for their
keen wit and sharp tongues. Vet
Grams on the Pirates have tagged
Rehg- as the freshest, noisest and
most cussed, irnpudent cub that ever
battled for a job on the team. And
the same is applied to Whitfield by
the old timers on the Cardinals. Rehg
had been in the big league only a
few weeks last season when he clashed
with Umpire Bill KLEIN. 1t was in a
game with Cincinnati
Who are you batting for?" asked
the czarlike KLEIN in tome that would
freeze many youngster. Why I'm
going to get hit for myself. old top"
replied Rehg. with saucy grin.
Don't get fresh with me, you young
busher,' angrily retorted klern.l
Whats your name?" "Rehg." replied
the youngster How do you spell il ?"
demanded kteFr You dent spell
IT," yelled back Rehg. You whistle
IL" And with that the freshest
busher Bill KLEIN had ever seen bust
ed one of Art Fromme's shoots on
the nose and Johnny Bates made a
wonderful back running catch in deep
center field.
That catch saved the game for the
Reds, and Rehg always remember
ed his hard luck on that occasion.
Manager Clarke believes he will do
for fast company.
Last September Whitfield never for
got to remind Manager Bresnahan of
the plumbers the Cardinals leader
would make. The pair had several
sharp tongue tits. but Roger always
admired the youngsier- In a game
with Brooklyn last summer Whitfield
had an off afternoon getting only two
dinky little hits off Rucker out of four
trips to the plate. Roger managed
to connect just once with one of the
Brooklyn's southpaw's twists On the
way to the bench Bresnahan called
Whitfield aside and said: Young fell
low. you had a poor afternoon. Bet
ter brace up" To which Whitfield
replied. Il know ii, Mr.. Bresnahan,
but you had a rotten one" Manager
Higgins says that he Will keep Whit
ted at third instead of Mowrey. The
youngster has the right spirit said
Higgins the other day He is a
fighter from his feet up"

Inasmuch as it is an accepted fact
that badness, falling hair and dand'
ruff are caused by a germ, doesn't it
stand to reason that the only way TO
prevent such calamities is to kill the
germs?
And doesn't it stand to reason that
the only way to kill these germs is to
use Partisan Sage, which Wilkinson &
Co, have so much faith in that they
guarantee It to cure dandruff, falling
hair and itching scalp in two weeks,
or money back?
Partisan Sage is a delightful hair

those ingredients that will surely
