ZAMLOCH WILL PLAY
FIRST FOR SPOKANE

Carl Zamloch, star pitcher of the
1912 Highlanders, winners Of the Union
association pennant that year, will
play first base for the Spokane North
western league team this year.
Carl went from here to Detroit, then
to Providence, and from the Rhode
Island metropolis to Denver in the
Western league. After taking u year
off from the game to work as car
toonist, Zamloch joined John McClos-
keys team down in the Cactus league
and last year drifted up to Spokane,
where he finished the Northwestern
league season, leading the league in
batting for the games in which he
took part, and also ranking high
among the pitchers, as he won four
out of the six games that he pitched.
Carl is said to have recoved both the
health and the arm that first made
him famous and broughts.h him up to
Ty Cobbs company.
1t will be remembered that Tiger
scout came here to watch Joe Bush.
Bush was given fearful lamming by
the Salt Lake team, and the next day
Fam went into the box against the
same bunch of sluggers and held them
hitless until one man was out in the
ninth, when Leo Dresser, now with ST.
Paul. made the only hit of the day off
Carl.
Zamloch's pitching performance
that day so impressed the Tiger scout
that he recommended Zam's purchase
and left Bush to his fate. However,
one of Connie Mack's scouts came
along and bought Joe Bullet, who soon
came into everlasting fame as the re-
suit of winning a worlds series game,
and also got into the money on two
worlds series while Zamloch stayed
less than four months in big league
company, though he pitched nice ball,
his l to . pitching duel against Walter
Johnson attracting considerable notice.

Electric fans are supposed (eyen by
their makers apparently, to be use

w. A. Evans, editor Of health COL

them of value in fighting cold. DR..
Evans writes:
"The other morning the room in

outside temperature was around three
degrees above zero. The coal supply
is inversely. as the cold supply and the
high cost of living work here as else
where. The steam in the radiators
was low.
II had occasion to mount on a step
ladder until my head was near the
ceiling. The thought had was that
If we could arrange our bedrooms so

and looked for the display Of vege-
tables in the window. They could not
be seen because the glass was covered
on the inside with ice. l passed an
other grocery and noted that the glass
was free from ice. This grocer had
an electric fan playing on his window.
"The train of thought suggested was
that we might gain in comfort in cold
weather by changing the heat from
the places where it was not wanted to
those where it was. just as in summer
time We employ fans to move cold air
to the places where it is wanted. The
enterprising grocer kept his window
free from ice by blowing the heat away
from his store, where it wilted vege-
tables. and against the glass. BY
warming the glass it prevented the
