WHAT ABOUT THE YANKEE DEAL? ASK
 THE SPORT FANS
Whats the big idea?

Whats the big idea?
 That Is the question all the fans are asking themselves these beautiful cold December days. The fans are wondering who is inspiring that wonderful line of goo" that is emanating from French Lick Springs and New York every hour or two about Jake Ruppert and Capt. T.. L. Huston buying out the Yankees.
 For the past month frantic scribes have announced the sale of the Yankees to Huppert and Huston and at the pres ent time the lemonized aggregation of balltossers sporting the uniform of the Tanks and it's franchise for existence is still on the bargain counter with buyer as far off as ever.
 Now the fans would like to know who is inspiring the line of junk about the sale of the Yankees Is Frank Farrell the sporty president Of the troublesome Highlanders short of kale and has con- scripted a press agent to fost his du- bious franchise on two millionaires? Or is Messrs. Ruppert and Huston seeking lot of free publicity in order to further the sale of their beer?

NOMOREFREE AUTOS FOR STAR PLAYERS; CHALMERS HAS QUIT

 "The proposition of having a baseball hall of fame, as proposed by me, was to run for five years.
