Bowling Gossip.

Captain IIumrickhouse's southern
boys. by shooting a l.Ghl set the highest
mark on these alleys. easily defeated
the Dlsbursing team Friday. The South
crn boys were surely in bowling mood.
and this big set was made possible by
the accumulation of thirty spares and
five strikes. !. T.. Smith was the main
offender with eight spares and one
strike. Southern's first game went for
$40 their second for $50, and their third
SIS.
|. l.. Smiths rolling was the feature
of the evening. his total being a+. re-
sulting from scores of l20. ~. and l02.
Streitcr's big game came In the first
contest. when he tOppled the little sticks
for a count OF l35. W. l.. Smith wRs
there with strings of s6 l2l. and los.
Triplett was consistent performer with
scores of 1G1, III. and 107. Stanley was
not up to his usual good form. although
he averaged we'll up in the nineties for
the evening.
Store Room was again the victim of
defeat. when they lost two games to
Captain Williams Transportation boys.
The winners we're not shooting in their
best form. but managed to capture the
pretty hard fought at times. Store Room
came back strong in the last contest.
and shot a 534 game, which easily de-
ieated the Transportation boys.
Captain Williams. of the winners. was
in his usual good form, and hammered
the little NAPLES for n total of 542 for
the evening. He had strings Of IL. ~.
and 80, which were the result of nine
spares and one strike. Kohl shot the
Sista MI
each Of his games went for a count
Of eS.
Store Room showed a great deal of
gameness after their two defeats by
coming back and taking the third game
with pins to spare. Weber. with ll6.
Lawrenson, with lOe, Quaid, with s.,
Hiscock with ll6, and Raedy. with 10,
were responsible for their score of 634
In the last contest.
Capt. Marks crowd Of duckpin artists
was on hand last Wednesday night. and
after some mighty good rolling captured
all three games from Disbursers. Mark.
and Lawrenson. with los. were mainly
responsible for Freight's first victory.
Capt. Mark also came back with a ll3
count in the second game. which went
a long way toward winning this con-
test. Warthen also got on the honor
roll by shooting 107 score in this game.
The third contest saw the Freight boys
hitting the wood for further orders. and
when the totals were added II was found
that they had 5Sl game TO their credit.
I.awrenson, with l22. was high man,
while Campbell was not far behind with
Ill.
Southern continued their winning
streak and the Auditors were the VIC
tins Of the good rolling of Capt Hum
rickhouse's team. While the winners
were little OF color yet they had little
trouble In annexing all three games.
Streiter got off to bard start. but tin-
ished up with scores Of lGe and 1O6 l. T..
Smith. Stanley. and Triplett though not
getting any high games, were very con-
siStent performers and their scores
averaged we'll up in the nineties Audi
tors seem to have struck bad slump,
but Capt. Rider has good strong
bunch and they should have little
trouble in getting back in their usual
form.

Baker Likely To Be
Seen at Old Place

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Feb. 81.
Franklin Baker. the Maryland home
run manufacturer" will again be seen
guarding third base for the Athletics.
He will be the Mack custodian Of the
hot" corner, as he has been for the
past six years. Incidentally the Ameri-
can League champions will not be
without his services very long. Baker
may not put in his appearance at the
Jacksonville training camp. He may
not even break into the opening Amer
lean League contest here on April T.
with the Boston Red Sox. but he will
be back before the pennant race has
grown more than two weeks old. This
new light was thrown on the Baker sit
uat'on today by one close in the coun-
ellis Of Connie Mack.
The authority for this said that Con-
ME Mack Crossed" Baker when he an
nounced that the. Home Run King"
had retired. He pointed out that Ba-
ker had quit in past yars. but Mack
showed more patience and coaxed HIM
back without making any announce
ment. but this time Connie made the
situation public.

Freddy Welsh says he won the title

And 1t looks as If Freddy intends to

sibly can by practicing patience and
stoicsm. The boxing fans would think
more Of the champion II he would con-
sent to take on some Of his many chal-
lengers over route to decision.
There are several men entitled to
matches with Welsh who are not being
given a tumble at ail-not even crack
at a no-decison match. They are
Johnny Dundee. who tried to get the
job AS Charley Whites substitute the
night the latter was taken III, and
Jack Britton. who would be willing TO
concede almost everything In the way
OF gate receipts to step In the ring with
the champion.
But Freddy is patient and a stole.

In Barnes day, errors were ladlcd out
ad libitum. men got errors on lots of
wallops that arc now called hits. aNd
both the batting and fielding averages
were reduced accordingly. In 1873 Barnes s
hit .453 and fielded .SG5-a combination
mark which has stood ever since as tho
marvel OF them all. Yet 1t Is only fair
to assume that under modern scoring
rules Barnes would have hit 500 and
fielded 800. even though he played bare
handed. with no help from a fielding
glove
Barnes hit .+04 in 1872. .453 in 1873. and
.4o3 in 1876 That old boy surely was
some walloper--and yet, when he went
out the other day he was given less

infants were attacked by diarrhea
in dirty homes as in the clean

The most important factor for.
child mortality, however, was
found to be artificial feeding.
Nearly 2 t-2 (2.4) times as many
infants were attacked by diarrhea
among the artificial fed as among
the breast-fed infants. The in
fluence of flies and dirt combin-
ed was found to be almost ex-
actly equal to that of artificial
feeding, even in reasonably good
surroundings. Almost 2 i-2 (2.4l

diarrhea as were Unprotected in
