LABELED PLEASE
DO NOT KISS ME-
Four Year Old Miss Going Unattend-
ed to California. Has Come All
the Way From Europe.

NEW YORK-The child who at
tracted the most attention on board
the Kronprinzessin Cecilie from the
Weser this week, says the World,
was four-year-old Margaretha Rits-
chen, with a placard stitched to her
dress on which was written in several
different languages:
please take care of me.
l am going to my mamma.
Please do not kiss me-"
Margaretha's father died in a
town not far from Vienna, and her
mother married again. The mother
emigrated with her new husband to
Kenwood, Sonora county, Cal, leav-
ing the child behind in the care of a
relative.
When she was ready to receive
curly-haired little Margaretha the
mother sent passage money to the
old country and directed that her
daughter be shipped. When she
reaches California the child will have
travelled about 1000 miles.
The steamship doctor was though
full enough to protect the child from
germs likely to be transmitted
through kisses.
The immigration boarding officers
found that Margaretha has only IS,

of an immigrant society. There is a

about eight days in whose care Mar

PAY BALL PLAYERS
SALARY FOR twelve MONTHS

Chicago, Jan. Baseball magnates
are now discussing a twelve months
contract with the players. Naturally
the most of them favor such an agree
ment. The contract they now have
is in effect a twelve months contract
but the ma gnates feel that it does not
give them sufficient control over the
men during the six months from early
October 10 early April.
OF course most of the magnateS
would prefer to pay their men in
twelve monthly instalIments than to
pay them seni-month1y during the
playing season, because they feel that
that would protect them against win
ter touches would give the reckless
men less spending money in summer
when the bosses want them to confne
their time and energies to ba1Iplaying,
and would finally assure the less pru-
dent men a comfortable living all the
year round.
Also some of THE magnates want to
have more authority over their en-
TJioyes' winter baseball and other ac-
tfvities on the theory that this winter
life affects their summer playing. We
hate to say what is in our mind-lthat
some of the magnates see visions of
coming those activities into a bit of
profit for themselves. The old pro-
verb has been revised in these days.

YALE'S BASEBALL
WORK TO START
CAPT. BLOSSOM ORDERS CANDI-
DATES TO REPORT IN CAGE,
JAN 20

YaFe,s baseball candidates will start
winter practice in the baseball cage
about January 20, with the men try
ing for the battery positions reporting
first. The first general call for can
didates will come about February L
and the squad will then be put
through a number of gymnastics, and
outdoor running. The work in the
cage will consist in fielding, base run
ming and general hitting, with par
tfcular emphasis on the two latter.
The squad will be cut before Febru-
airy 10, and only those men who are
considered likely candidates for the
university team will be retained. Only
two field teams will be included in the
squad after this cut.
1t has not yet been definitely de-
cided when the freshman candidates
will be called out for winter work in
the cage The work for the fresh
men will be along the same lines as
those of the varsity. During the sea-
son of 1913 particular attention will
be given to the class teams. 1t isl the
wish of Captain Blossom and of Coach
Quinby to make the class teams more
than ever the stepping stones to the
varsity
a more extensive schedule than
that of previous years will be arrang-
ed, and games will be started imm edi-
ately after the Easter recess.

BIG WELCOME TO

MANAGER EVERS AND WINDY
CITY FANS FORM GUARD
OF HONOR.

Chicago, Jan. 7.-One of the
strangest scenes in the history of or
ganized baseball will mark today 8
entry into the Windy City of Frank
Chance, the form er leader of the Cubs
and idol of the West Side. Johnny
Evers, the successor of the Peerless
Leader; Charlie Williams, treasurer of
the Cubs, and a host of Chicago news
papermen will form an escort of hon
or from Joliet. Chance is due at the
Dearborn street station at 11:40 am.
Chance will be the first big league
manager ever publicly weleom ed back
to his old stamping ground by a sue
cessor. In fact, his re- entry into Chi
.cago will be a regular triumph. Ev-
eryone connected with the Chicago
Nationals will be on hand to greet
the former boss. The newspapermen
have arranged a great banquet for to-
night, while Charles Comiskey and
Ban Johnson will also tender one to
the prospective American League ac-
QUESTION.
Frank A. Farrell, president of the
New York American League club is
expected some time before Chance. 1t
is planned to have the Yanke owner
as one of the principal mem bers of
the Committee of Reception. Tt is
highly probable that Chance and Far
reI will agree on terms before to-
night.

HOLY CROSS EXPECTS
STRONG BASEBALL TEAM
Will Have to Replace Six Stars Lost
BY Graduation.

Holy Cross is already laying its
baseball plans for 1913. The Worces-
ter athletes have to do a, lot of hust-
ling this year for the reason that six
veterans of last years nine are lost by
graduation Despite this they are
hopeful of turning out a winning team,
for there is plenty of promising ma
teria1 available. Graduate Manager
of Athletics Thomas J. Fla.herty is now
arranging the schedule and writes that
the team will make a trip South again
this spring.
Two of last years pitchers, Joe
Lynch and Dave Dubuc are gone, but
Murray, Cur1ey and Shea, promising
youngsters, are available. The nine
will also miss Cans, the regular catch
er. Costello, his understudy, is pick
ed to fill the vacancy. Ostergren Will
be at first base, but there is a big
hole to fill at second through the loss
of VoIk. Craig also is missed at
short. Cauley is a fixture at third.

WELLS SHOULD
PROVE EASY FOR
LUTHER M'CARTY

Apparently Luther McCarty is bent
on adding an international hnge to
Bonbardier Wells of England the next
match. No doubt N1cCarty would gain
considerable prestige by adding Wells
to his list of victims, and from Nc
Cartys standpoint the match is highly
desirable. But if the general sport
ing public is to be considered a. much
better match would be with one OF the
remaining heavies of this country.
boxer, but he has yet to show that he
can hold his own with any Of the lead
ing hopes when it comes TO fighting.
He punched himself into a state of
complete exhaustion in the first two
rounds of his bout with PaIzer. 1t
is hard to see where he could improve
on this showing in a match with Nc
Carly, who is just as rugged as Palzer
and besides has a far superior defence.
While Wells scored clean knOckdoWn
over PaIzer it must not be forgotten
that the awkward swings Of many 9TH
ers have been able to duplicate this
trick.
The Englishman's lack of staying
power was even more convincingly
shown in his match with Tom Ken
nedy, although Wells won that affair.
After two rounds fought at only nor
collopse from fatigue. Had Kennedy
been able to deliver "a body blow of
any force whatever he could not have
failed to bring down his opponent just
as Palzer did.
On all form McCarty should be able
to finish Wells in a very few rounds.
Wells only chance would be to win in
the first furry of fighting, which is
as long as his strength holds out.
His chance to do. that looks exceeding
ly small, when McCarty's Improvement
is considered. Altogether the match
looks to be too one-sided to be worthy
of much consideration, although doubt
less the promoters figure that it will
arouse as niue interest as some of the
big battles of the past. Wells should
first be made to wipe out his defeat
by PaIzer before he is allowed to usuH-p
the right of better men to take part
in the next big match for the white
heavyweight championship title.
