RED CROSS SEALS.
Sale in 1912 was 40,00o,0Oo - Ne
Style of Design this Year.

Orders for printing 100,000,000 Red
Cross Christmas seals for use during
the holiday season this wear have al
ready been placed and preparations for
the sale are well under way, according
to an announcement made from the
New York campaign headquarters to
day
Over 100000 or 100000 worth of
seals were sold in 1912, gain of near
ly % per cent over the previous year.
Because of the deep interest in the
anti-tuberculosis movement for which
the seals are sold, the American Red
Cross and The National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis who conduct the SALE hope to reach
the 50000,000 mark this year, netting
100000 for the prevention of con
sumption.
radical departure from previous
seals in the shape and character of the
design will be instituted this year. The
seal will be rectangular in shape, one
and one-half inches wide and one inch
deep. The center of the design will
depict Santa Claus with his eight rein
deer dashing across a field of snow, and
the border will be a brilliant red and
green decoration of poinsettias and
holly, the Red Cross emblem appearing
on either side.
The design was drawn by C. J. Budd
of New York, the well-known illustra-
tor, who was awarded a prize of 800
for his drawing. The second prize.
$50, was awarded to r. Foster Worth
ley of New York and the third to Miss
Hazel de Berard of Brooklyn Miss
Sara B. Hill of New York was given
honorable mention.
Distribution of the seals will be
started about September l and by De
cember l it is expected that the entire
l0o.000,000 will be distributed. If
more are needed, an additional supply
VIII be printed. In addition to the seals
themselves, advertising material to the
amount of several million pieces is also
being prepared. The campaign this
year will be organized in almost every
city and town of the United States.
and no less than 100000 agents will
give their services to the work.

Looks as If Two Teams Will
Clash In World Series.
MACKMEN OUTCLASS RIVALS
Philadelphia Has Better InfieId, Out
field, Batters and Base Runners.
Giants Have Stronger Pitching Staff.
Mack Using Clever Methods.
By TOMMY CLARK.

| When the Giants and the Athletics
tome together in the worlds series
this fall (how's that for predicting it p
Dne can hardly have good reasons to
back the Giants end of the argument
The team is outclassed by the Mack
men in every department but pitch
ing. The Athletics have a better in
field, outer garden and catching de-
partment than the New Workers. They
also are heavier hitters, better base
runners and fielders than McGraw's
outfit.
New York is well fixed for twirlers
Mathewson, Marquard, Tesreau, Dem
aree, Fromme, Wiltse and Crandall
are all in better shape than any in
the league and capable of twirline
good ball.
The Athletics pitching has not been
the best all season. The Mackmen
have won the great majority of their
games by main strength of swatting.
Mack has such offensive strength
that he can worry along in pitching
relays and keep well in front playing
game a day.
Mack has handled his pitchers in
| clever style all season and has resort
ed to all kinds of tricks. Here is one
he pulled off on Washington recently:
Before a recent game Mack had
Bender and Plank warming up before
the players bench, indicating that one
or the other would pitch In the mean
time, Joe Bush was behind the grand
stand loosening up his arm. The
BenderPlank display was for the pur-
pose of drawing Johnson out OF
Griffith, and 1t succeeded, but as soon
as Johnson had been announced Mack
switched to Bush, not wanting TO take
a chance of having one of his two
stars beaten by Johnson. reserving
them for an easier game, thus making
their games certain victories, is the
way he figured
As it happened, Bush won his game
and, though Bender had to be used nj
the finish, it left him Mack Plank and
Bender to be used in the remaining
games.
Mack has made remarkable improve
ment in the work of his young pitch
ers. None of them are stars. but he
has taught them enough to have them
formida BILE for five or six innings any
way. and in that way he is able to
win games, for he can let one of his
veterans finish the games during the
closing innings without affecting their
regular turns.

CLAY COURT TENNIS TITLE.
Omaha Will Hold Big Event July Fl TO

Il inclusive.
The fourth annual national CLAW
court tennis tourney, to be held on the
courts of the Omaha Field club, Oma-

promises to be one of the greatest ever
Tennis champions from California.
New York, Texas, Iowa. Nebraska.
North and South Dakota, Missouri, II
linois. Pennsylvania and, in fact. every
state where the popular game holds
sway will battle for the beautiful cups
emblematic of the singles and doubles
championships of the world.
The Omaha Field club courts are con-
coded to be the best clay courts in the
world, and because of this Omaha has
been selected for the national cham
pionshipS for three of the four compe-
titions.
The 1913 hist of aspirants will be the
most representative of any field AS
the game has grown so has interest in
it, especially the clay courts end. and
today tennis men from all parts are
being rapidly converted to the clay
courts competition. The fascination of
the perfect court has much to do with
the popularity of the game. 1t means
as much to the tennis player to play on
a clay court as it does to the ball player
to play on the skinned diamond
To lend added interest in the 1913
championships Gustive Touchard of
New York has signified his intention of
competing Merrill Hall of New York.

California, which in the past has been
represented by Melville Long, national
champion, will send a strong delega-
ton, as will Colorado and other west
ern states. Roland Hoerr and Drum
mond Jones will look after Missouri's
laurels on behalf of st. Louis, while
Jack Cannon of Kansas City, Mis-
souri's state champion, will also be on
hand to take the trophies back to "Old
Mizzou.''
Nebraska will have a delegation of
forty from all parts of the state, which
will include Harry Koch, city and
state champions; Sam Caldwell, "Cub"
Potter, Art Scribner, Ralph Rainey, NJ.
A. Colpetzer, l.. Swartz, all of Omaha,
who some time in their careers have
held championship titles of state and

PONDS
PROVE SUCCESSFUL

Such exceptionally good results have
been obtained through his experiments
with retaining" ponds for fish that Fred
w. Chambers. state fish and game
commissioner, has decided TO continue the
work. A retaining pond was built In
Fountain Green creek Sanpete county,
about one year ago, In which was planted
approximately 10000 trout fry. ranging in
length from one and one-half 10 two
inches. When the pond was recently
cleaned out II was estimated that more
than 10000 OF the fry were alive, and
ranged in length from a finger 10 eight
inches. Similar experiments have been
conducted during the past two years. and
Mr., Chambers says with equally success
ful results.
The commissioner is arranging to have
one or two OF these ponds built in each
important stream In the state and to plant
from $4,000 TO 10000 fry every year
These fish Will be fed and cared for
from five TO six months after which time
they will be turned loose in the large
streams, just before cold weather The
work OF planting will be done some time
in July.
