GLEASON HAS SHARP TONGUE

When Manager Jennings Was
Getting His Goat.

kid" Gleason, formerly assistant
manager and general factotum of the
White Sox, is noted for the sharpness
of his repartee on the ball field. Man
ager Jennings of the Detroit Tigers

left the Chicago club. Hughie, it must
be remembered, has been involved in
two serious accidents, each of which
nearly terminated his career. First he

breaking bones innumerable and hay

doctors patched him up. Later he
drove his automobile off a bridge near
Scranton and hurt himself so badly
that he was in a hospital for a couple
of months. Gleason, of course, knew
all about these two accidents and
when the time came he reminded Jen-
nings of them in way more pointed
than polite.
The Detroit manager was coaching
one afternoon and had taken occasion

ENDORSES NEW BRIDGE
Several Speakers Approve Proposal
no Connect Cowardin Avenue
And laurel Street

AZ q mass meeting held under the
auspices Of the Union League of
South Richmond. In the auditorium
OF cambridge School Friday night,
impetus was given to the movement
for another bridge across the James.
The project. which was endorsed by
several speakers, contemplates the
construction of a third bridge be-
tween the Southside from the foot of
Cowardin avenue to Richmond at the
foot OF Laurel street.
]. Preston Carson, president of the
organization. calling the meeting to
order, recited the leagues purposes.
and stressed the necessity for better
transportation facilities for communi-
cation between the two parts of the
city. Mr.. Carson reviewed the history
of the several movements for bridges,
read the leagues petition to council,
signed by more than 1900 southside
citizens, for the proposed new bridge,
and declared the money necessary
ought to be available. He explained
that the bridge, via Belle Isle, would
be at least one-thtrd on a land found
alton.
Suggests Tax Rate Change
Alderman Ordway Fuller, first
speaker presented, agreed that there
should be another bridge. He said he
though he was not ready to say
whether 1t should be in the West End
or on the site now proposed
Royal For Bond Issue.
Augustine Royal statedh the belief
that a bond issue could take care OF
the new bridge project and that the
future generations would pay, as the
present generations are paying for
improvements made in former years.
