GULrPORT. Miss. March IA
White the trip to Gulfport may Be
very pleasant and tho stay here even
plessanter, Il Is not altogether . plea
sure trip OF Frank Navin that brings
the president OF the Tigers to the
clubs spring training camp.
Navin has planned this trip TOT
months. He announced last winter
that he was coming here this spring
But II he hadn't planned II In advance
he would doubtless be making It this
year anyway.
Nsvin must be in Gulfport for hts
own protection. There Is a mix.up
about the grounds that the Tigers &C.
cupy that Re can help settle perhaps.
But more important, he wants to be
ON the field Of battle In case the Fed
erals should decide to carry their night
for players right into the Tigers
spring csmp.
It looks az II there Is only one rea'
son that the Federal agents wouldn't
come to GulfpOrt to seek additional
players. as they are doing at other
training camps-that II because they
have been 90 unsuccessful In the past
In Turing Tigers away from the Detroit
fold. Edgar Willett being the only one
to be lost.
However, they may figure that some
Of the recruits who have had no pre-
vious experience with the club and
who may be sore at being sent back to
the minors may take a chance and
Jump to them.
Navin has been very successful IN
the past In keeping his players with
him. Whilo most of the presidents are
forced to entrust the signing OF their
men to their managers, Navin doesn't
bother Manager Jennings with the bus
mess Affairs Of the club, but attends
to them himself. This winter Navin
personally signed up most OF the men
who were doubtful. He sent Jimmy
Burke over to see Del Gamer, but that
was merely because Jimmy 10 the man
who made Del big Lacquer. Burke
had NO power to cnange the contract
he had with him. and It was not until
Navin accepted 0ainegs proposition OF
the three years contract that Del was
signed.
Frank sent Jim Mcguire out to see
Red Mckee and Mark Hall. and one
or two more men, and Jim had no
trouble In getting the signatures OF
the men.
George Moriarty attempted to hold
Edgar Willett with the Tigers, but Ed
saw $500 advance money and he
grabbed It with alacrity; and Morrie
was powerless 70 stop him.
But In all the signing Of the men
President Navin practically did all his
own negotiating. He wants to be on
the Job to continue to do 50 In case
there ID any necessity.

- Editor Day Book:-I have read

by yourself and others on social evil,
its causes, it's cures, if conditions are
better or worse. To me the principal
cause of prostitution is poverty, and
one way to better conditions is pay
living wage. Conditions are becom-
ing worse by driving and bounding
from pillar and post these poor UNI
fortunate women who fell by the
wayside, arresting them, taking their
last dollar to pay fine, turning them
out on the highways and byways to
do the same thing over to get money
to keep body and soul. In Gods holy
name say to you reformers, is that
Christian charity? You may say, as
some of you did before the O'Hara
commission, that you had homes for
them. Where are the homes? 1
