Dear Miss Libbey:-
 As your daily reader, please advise. l go out with young men. A certain man B years of age cares for me. If he asks for a kiss what ann to say to him? Is it right, after theatre, to go to a nice restaurant and have sup per, a few nice dishes or a drink? notice a few young girls order wine. Is this proper or to put elbows on ta- bie, as I was taught not to do? En- tering, if one has furs on, does the waiter take them? Should I invite a young man in as we return from the atre?

Here are the men.


Thursday is the day. And
battle of the best middleweights
now in America is the deed. So
get out your pulmotor, for it
looks like an affair that will take
your breath away.
1t is the fourth meeting of these
two gladiators-the fastest and
cleverest in the business. Five
years ago they met for the first
time, and Clabby won clean-cut
decision. The next two were no.
decision contests, with the last
one little in Gibbons favor.
You pick the winner of this one.
1t is long since the death OF
"Steve," but his vacant throne is
being busted off at last. Jimmy
and Mike stand smilingly beside
it waiting-waiting for the gong.
Both men are marvels. Glib
bons is faster, more spectacular
and carries the best punch. Clab-
by is as clever and. maybe little
wiser. Comparisons are difficult,
as Mikes opponents have been of
a much lower brand than Jim
my's.
McGoorty, the best man the St.
Paul boy ever met, shaded him in
a ten-round, no-decision bout in
New York. Clabby took a de-
cision from McGoorty. Then,
again, Mike had much the best of
Jeff Smith in their ten-round bat
tie, and Jeff Smith cleanly de-
feated Clabby in Australia.
So throw the "dope" in the gut
ter on your way to the fight and
hang on to your seat when you
get there, for it promises to be as
exciting as carrying a trench.
Let 'er go!

CY YOUNG.

Cy Young pitched for twenty-five
consecutive years as big Lacquer. Be
gan his career with Cleveland in 1890
and ended it with Boston in 1912.
Only pitcher who has ever succeeded
In winning 500 games in the big
leagues. Won his greatest number of
games In 1892. when he was the victor
In thirty-siX contests. Lost his great
cot number. twenty-five. in his first
year as big lesguer. In only three of
his twenty-five years did he suffer
twenty or more defeats.
Had three no-hit games to his credit,
In one OF which he kept the opposition
from getting a single man to first base.
May 4. 1901. the hardhitting Athletics
were helpless before Young. who. with
perfect control and support. retired
twenty-seven batters in order.
Never had sore arm during his
entire career. Never required any at
tention from a trainer. For years he
relied entirely on his speed for sue
cess. Not until he began to lose his
fast ball did he resort to the curve.

We reproduce the three-move problem
given last week, together with its solution,
for the benefit of those who may not
have solved this remarkable composition.
Mr. Marshall, in commenting, while here,
ON this position, gave it as his opinion
that this problem was without a superior
among three movers. He further said
that in the Manhattan Chess Club of New
York, where a three-mover usually lasts
about three minutes, this problem went
unsolved for three days! And now
said the genial United States champion,
81 will show you a two-mover worthy to
be published in the same column with it"
They both follow, and We think our read
ers will agree with Mr.. Marshall in his
opinion of their merits.

FACTS AND FIGURES
About Cy Young and Ed Walsh, Two of the
Greatest Pitchers In the Business
Were Gluttons for Hard Work.
BY BILLY EVANS.
ED WALSH,

Jumped into prominence in 1906 by
his great work with a club that was a
very weak hitting aggregation. yet
won the pennant and the worlds cham
pionship. Won seventeen games that
year and in ten Of them he scored shut
outs.
Greatly aided the White Sox in win
ming the nineteen straight games in
1906. In the nineteen days Walsh
worked seven games, winning them all
in rather easy style. In the seven
games he worked the opposition made
only six runs-less than one a game
Walsh depended almost entirely on
the use of the spitball for success
In 1909 he first complained of a sore
arm. but insisted 1t was merely a cold
in the arm. not due to the almost con-
slant use of the spitball delivery
In 1910 Walsh came back and worked
in forty-f1ve games. making it seem
that the theory about his arm was the
correct one. In 1911 he went even
stronger. taking part in fifty-five
games, while in 1912 he was the pitch
er in sixty-two contests. The follow
ing year his arm gave out. and his fu-
ture career is still very much Of an
uncertainty.
