But of Course You Have

Did YOU ever sit at twilight by
a elimmering, shimmering rill,
when the suns last rays were
slipping down behind green clad
hill. The cricket's chirp was mi-
sic and the deep voiced bull frogs
drone kept the wood from seeming
lonely-made it good to be alone.
The gurgle of the water on that

didn't have to leave the cool

your dream.

Against the skyline,
Far up on yon height,

Your footho]d the rocks,
Where firmly you cling,
Defying the storms
From autumn till spring.
How often you fought
The wind and the snow,
While others were safe
In the valley below.
You sing and you sigh
But not to be heard,
For no one is near,
Not even bird.
You rant and you rave
At the tempest at night;
When winter winds rage,
With furies you fight.
The first in the morn
To welcome the sun,
The last to behold it
When daylight is done.

MANUSH TO LEAD
CLINTON PILOTS
Former Indian Boss ana Last year
With Burlington, Will Take up
Reins at Clinton, 1t is
Announced.
EXPECTS GOOD SEASON
New Clinton Boss Tells Former Asso-
ciates He Will Give Pilots the
Best Possible Showing
This Season.

George Manush, pilot of the keokuk
Indians couple of seasons ago, and
who was with Burlington in the Cen
trail association last year, has been
chosen to manage the Clinton team
This season.
The Burlington Hawk-Eye says of
his new job:
George Manush of Burlington, was
chosen yesterday to manage the Gin
ton Pilots for next season. George
was manager of the Pathfinders last
year, but has severed relations, SO far
rs baseball is concerned, with Hayden
and the Burlington club. Manush was
chosen by the Clinton directors in
preference to about seven others, who
had made application for the position.
Among these other men were Dick
Robin, who was formerly in Burling-
ton; Hubbart, a player of last year,
and Mcnamara, resident OF Clinton,
and a man who has had experience in
baseball.
Manush has had plenty of experience
and no doubt will put the Clinton ag-
gregation in the running for the pen
nant the coming season.
George was seen last night and con-
firmed the report that he had been
elected but did not care to make any
other statement except to say that he
intended giving Clinton 1.-The best that
is in me- and that he would now for
mulate definite plans for the coming
year.

Fight.
HE MUST BEAT TWO MEN
Eddie McGoorN and Jack Dillon
Stand Between Mike and IN
disputed Right to
Belt.
BY Hal Sheridan, written for the

LBy Hal Sheridan. written for the
United Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Mike Gibbons,
the phantom-like boxer of st. Paul, IL
the best middleweight in the business.
Despite bowls to the contrary from
Eddie McGoorty. Jack Dillon, Jimmie
CIabby, ct al, the lad from Minnesota
is the nearest thing to real champ
ion the fans have seen since the death
OF Stanley hetchel. He doesn't stand
head and shoulders above his con-
temporaries, but he stands high
enough that he can be easily recog-
nized over their heads.
Before the Gibbons-Clabby battle
at Milwaukee several weeks ago, the
Hammond boxer was considered about
the cream of his division. He had d
belt emblematic of the middleweight
championship given him by Uncle
Tom McCarey in San Francisco after
he had beaten George Chip in twenty
rounds
But Clabby failed to show champion
ship class in his battle with Gibbons.
Mike was an easy winner, according
to ringside reports and it was real
battle all the way. Clabby's friends
argue that he can't lose his prestige in
ten rounds, but Gibbons so clearly out
fought him in ten that it is a safe
bet he could also do it in twenty.
Two men remain to be disposed OF
before Mikes claim to the crown is
to be absolutely unquestioned. They
are Eddie N4cGoorty, the Oshkosh
bear, and Jack Dillon.
Dillon hasn't been doing much bust
ness with the middleweights recently
and the cry has gone up that the Hoos-
Ter can't make the weight. But Dillon
contends he can and offers to prove it
if the occasion demands. IN recent
bout with Porky Flynn over in BROOK
Ign, Jack weighed 169 pounds and
was so strong that he all but knock
ed the Boston battler through the
ropes for a long sleep. If Jack can
make the figure he certainly should be
given a chance at Gibbons.
McGoorty can probably make the
weigh with ease And the Oshkosh
entry has certainly proven that he is
a contender.
So. if Mr.. Gibbons will just go on
and clean UP the situation by dispos-
ing or exposing these two, the boxing
game will have it's first unquestioned
l5S pound king since 1911.

Tense. MIR. McManus Is one of the
best known criminal attorneys in the
state and his acquisition has very
materially strengthened the defense.
Several new witnesses have been
found by the defense and they are
very confident that a verdict of not
guilty will be brought in by the jury.
The prosecution, however, is very
optimistic. 1t is rumored that they
will produce some very sensational
evidence which will implicate num-
Der of prominent citizens and secure
the conviction Of the defendant.
Never has trial created as much
interest as this now famous rooster
