More Lajoie Rumors.

Cleveland, Ohio. Jan. 1s.-A report has
been circulated to the effect that Larry
Lajoie, the veteran second baseman of
the Maps, is considering retiring for
good and not Joining the squad for its
training trip this spring. The big fellow
himself refuses to answer questions on
the matter and will not indicate whether
the report is true or not. It is said that
he is displeased over rumors that he
would be traded to the White Sox or New
Yorks. Another report says he is dis

By BILL BAILEY.

The assertion that this age of baseball
is one of speed goes unchallenged. We
had irrefutable evidence Of II a very
short time ago when Pittsburg cut loose
from Mike Donlin. Now comes a rum
bling from the Middle West that Cleve-
land is to sacrifice its great king, Larry
Lajoie. Next thing We know Of the
Hans wagners and Sam Crawfords will
be getting the hook because they fail
oG a pace or two in sprlnting form.
Fred Clarke was evidently justified in
sending Donlin to Philadelphia even
though Mike hit away above 80 in 49,
Mike is slow and decrepid. too, in way.
But for Cleveland to pass up the grea,
Lajoie sounds too foolish to attract at
tention. Why that young fellow Lajoie
is Just beginning to find himself in the
big tent. And do you think for min
ute the Cleveland Club does not realize
this? Do you think the Cleveland Club
would dare to sell such a favorite even
IL It wished to do so? Do you think
IajoIe would consent TO be bartered like
a bush Lacquer after seventeen years
in the big ring?
These are a few questions that fur
nish food for sound reflection. Larry
Lajoie has slowed up undoubtedly dur
ing the past seventeen years but he Is
far from being any sort OF .derelict. Last
year he played III games and hit for the
remarkable average of .36S.s Under those
circumstances, having enjoyed one OF the
very best seasons of his brilliant career
IL Is very unlikely that Cleveland woulo
consent to part with Lajoie'at any price.
He has become a Forest City institu-
tiol.
Friends Ask for shift.
Many of Lajoie's friends would like to
see him transferred to some other club,
especially one which has some chance
for the pennant. for the big Frenchman
has never yet figured on a winning team
or shared any of the spoils Of a worlds
series. Wagner, Crawford. Cobb, Donlin.
and all these wonderful veterans. con-
temporaries of the old and modern
schools, have had their share Of the big
glory and big gravy. Several times
Larry has come close. most notably in
1908, when he managed the Blues. That
year Cleveland, Detroit, and the White
Sox foughI such a finish that the PEN
nant was not decided until the very
last day. The sad part OF the affair.
from Cleveland standpoint. was that
Lajoie that year. when his services were
so badly needed, had the worst season
of his big league career. Larry played
in every game, but he batted only .2SS
and fielded far below his standard. Only
one other time in his life did the big
FreLchman fall to rap 800 or better. In
1907 he fell shy of the coveted notch by
only one point.
Lsjoie broke into fast company when
he was twenty-one years Of age. He
had fairly broken up the New England
League as member of the FAN River
team when the PhiiIies netted him. He

coincident the other day about his team
when the Hilltoppers took a trip to
Princeton and were defeated. The
drinking water the Tigers furnished had
a bad effect on the team and when they
stacked up against the Loyola College
bunch they were not in the best of con-
dition. Jim. when he made this state
ment, said that he was not crying about
being defeated by Loyola, but was just
mentioning the fact that water in GER

Fish and Game Outing.

The first annual outing of the Addi-
son County Fish and Game League will
be held Wednesday,, June 25, at Basin
Harbor.
The directors of the League have
made plans for real lively meeting,
as this is the first attempt at a summer

making it a success. The program for
the day will be as follows: The League
members and friends will assemble at
Vergennes in the forenoon and take the
steamer Victor and Alexander down the
Otter to Basin Harbor, arriving at 1890
o o'clock. The annual meeting of the
League will be held in the pavilion at
the Harbor at ! AS. Election of Off
cards and other important business will
be transacted.
A sumptuous fish dinner will be
served in the grove Immediately after
the annual meeting. Following the
dinner will come the athletic sports
and base ball game between the Fats
and the Leans. The boats will return
to Vergennes about six o'clock. Music
for the occasion will be furnished by
the Vergennes City Band. AS there
are over 200 members of the club a
large attendance is expected. If the
weather is inclement the dinner will
be served in the pavilion and the
afternoon will be devoted to indoor
sports.
The members of the League are re-
quested to notify the chairman of the
committee how many tickets they want
reserved. adv. 24tl

The extent of trouble which bands of
gypsies are said to be doing in northern
Massachusetts and southern Vermont is
sufficient to give other sections warning
that this class of people should be kept
moving so that there will be no chance
for them to commit depredations. Like
most of the people who are wandering
aimlessly through the country they do
no good to the sections traversed and
nearly always they do injury. There
fore. the steps taken in some sections,
Burlington, for instance, toward caus-
ing them to move along should be fol-

acre orchard:

acres of old orchard. The trees were
neglected and untrimmed, and where
some had died or had blown down the
ground had been left vacant, and the
orchard had been unplowed for years.
The season before bought it, it did not
produce enough fruit to pay to gather

Guide to Glacier National Park.

The principal points of interest IN the
newest of the great reservations that
are maintained by the government for
the benefit of the people are described
in circular entitled General Inform
alton Regarding Glacier National Park,
Season of 1919" just issued by the De-
partment of the Interior. This park is
situated in northern Montana, 260 miles
northwest of Yellowstone Park in an
air line and 447 miles by railroad. 1t is
under the control and supervision of the
Seci etary of the Interior, who is repre-
scented in the actual administration of
the park by a superintendent, assisted
by number of park rangers who patrol
the reservation.
The park is bounded on the north by
the Canadian line, on the east by the
Blackfeet Indian Reservation, and on
the west and south by the Flathead
River. 1t has an acrea OF about 9l5,-
600 acres and derives its name from
many glaciers which are scattered
throughout it's area. There are about
80 glaciers between five square miles
and few acres in area. The park is a
rugged mountainous region and con-
tains over $50 lakes which are surround
ed by steep and beautifully wooded
mountains.
