OF course, the artist was mad at what

She says It is the first time any objection

and she added: "As for the police, they
have nothing on me"
And the police chorused r1ght back:
That's Just the trouble. We want some

EARLY TO BED AND
EARLY TO RISE is
BROWNS SECRET
Mordecai Made Himself a
Big League Hurler by
Keeping in Condition
HE IS TILL GOO d
Early TO bed and
Early to rise
Made three-flnEered Brown
A pitChing prize.

Take little tip from Mordecai Brown,
you would-be pitching greats. Follow
the time-honored adage entitled early to
bed and early to rise, makes a man
healthy, wealthy and wise"
There you have, in nutshell, the first
principles of a prosperous career, whether
it be on a ball field, in the commercial
world or elsewhere. 1t Is the sermon of
n slab wizard to red-blooded young
Americans who. aspire to places in the
hall of fame.
The three-fingered marvel, 40 years
young and boasting remarkable record
established during 16 years of bristling
competition against the greatest sluggers
of all-time, is keen for the regular hours,
clean living and he's unafraid of hard
work.
The story of his rise from obscurlty as
a miner in the coal fields adjacent to
Terre H9ute Ind, is an old one.
From his apprentice days manning the
pick, Brownie learned to hit the hay early
and to rise with the chickens. Seldom
has he been absent from bed later than
midnight.
Handicapped for the career he chose,
as the result OF having lost the fore
finger of his right hand while monkey
ing" with feed chopper at the age of 4,
Brown has by clean living won his niche
In the hall of curving fame
Though 40 and at an age when the
average ball player is ready for the old
soldiers home, the Miner bids fair to
again cut dizzy swath on his return
to the Cubs-hls old alma mater-and
the National League.
II am good for at least five more
years" says the grlzzled Mordecai.

NEW SWIMMING RULES
FOR COLLEGIATE RANKS
Vollmer and Shryock Target for
Changes in Code

NEW YORK. Feb. 22.-Herbert Voll-
mer, Columbia's swimming prodigy, is the
target at which a-new rule will be directed
by the Intercollegiate Swimming Assocla-
tion at its annual meeting next month,
according to a statement made yesterday.
This new rule will bar a man from
swimming In more than one race In ad-
dition to the relay in any of the college
championship meets, and 1t Is probable
that 1t will be passed with only Columbia
and Pennsylvania dissenting.
For some time there has been an un-

I'VE have effected the emanci-
