MARRIAGE QUESTION

Two audiences expecting a very
mediocre play were agreeably sur
prised in THE Marriage Question" at
the Grand Thanksgiving afternoon
and night. THE Marriage Question
was a serious play well lightened
with frivolous comedy. based on the
innocent flirtations of the wife OF
man engrosed in his business. The
usual friend of the husband furnished
the plot character, but without the
usual sordid results. The play ended
according to rule with a reunited hus-
band and wife Wanda Ludlow and
Oscar O'Shea as Mr.. and Mrs. Hud-
son were excellent foils for each 9TH
err and their emotional lines were read
with a naturalness refreshing after
the usual type of stage passion. The
com edy of Rose Lamereaux and Eddie
Ray in ingenue parts effectively
laughed away the potential prophe-
cies of Frank Francis. as Bangs the
butler. The cast as a whole was we'll
balanced and worked well together.
1t is difficult to pick a particular star
as the work of every member of the
cast fitted in smoothly with the work

NEED A SHAKEUP
Minor Leagues, However, Are
Afraid of Each Other.
All Are Ambitious for a Higher
Classification.
BY JACK VEIoCK.

New York. Nov. 3O.-If minor
league magnates were not so deathly
scared of each other they might be
able to get together some time and
accomplish things which would bet
ter conditions everywhere in the Ma
tionaI Association
A few reactionaries in American
Association ranks, supported by scat
tering representatives from other
minor leagues, attempted to pave the
way for a plan to redistrict the minor
leagues at the recent minor leagues
meeting in Louisville, and the at
tempt was a fine fivver.
The magnates who started the
movement had selfish motives in
view, it is true, but they did not
lack lust motives as we'll, for, regard
in the American Association may
hasve said it is a known fact that
several of them were prepared to an
nounce at Louisville that they did
not intend to open their gates IN
1918. The only thing which forced
them to change their minds was the
fear that the redistricting plan
might go thru, in which event they
would be classed with cities now hold
ing franchises in the Western League.
All Are Ambitious.
The magnates in every minor league
can say this without exception
would jump at the chance to get
higher rating. Naturally they do not
want to be showed back, and they
need not be. But clubs left in leagues
which would have been split up thrp
a redistricting of the minors claim
that their franchises would be hurt by
association with cities brought up
from a class just below them and
that interest among the fans would
20 Of 70 10 no dapraQ
This argument is a good one, no
doubt, but the fact remains that the
minor leagues have been losing money
as whole for the past two or three
years, dating back to the advent OF
the Federal league, and that some-
thing should be done to better condi-
tions.
Mileage in the minor leagues-many
of them, at least-is so great, even in
a shortened season, that it eats up
profits with alarming sWiftness- over
head expenses in general ought to be
cut down, and this could be done if
the minors, as a whole, would settle
down for once in their lives and talk
business without flirting with the
thought that everybody is trying to
double-cross everybody else.
Shake Up Needed.
The best proof that the minors need
a shaking up was shown in the an
nuaI report of Secretary John Farrell,
which showed that two years ago
thirty-nine minor leagues were OPP
Grating. while last season only thirteen
played out their schedules, and that
prospects for more than eight or ten
starting the season of 1918 were
mighty slim.
Bill Rourke, president and owner
of the Omaha (Western league) club,
hit the nail on the head at the meet
ing of the Western league, held in
louisville. when he said:
why don't you fellows stop kid
ding yourselves? You talk like you
have been making a mint of money,
where in reality you know you're all
broke and will be lucky to finish next
season.
Rourke is a minor league club
owner who has been in the game for
a score of years, and he ought to
know what he is talking about

H. S. LOST HARD GAME
Topeka Lads Blame Aggie Star for
Loss of State Title.

Topeka high school players today
are blaming Houston, pig Manhattan
tackle. for their 1S to 10 defeat at
Aggieville Thursday tnat cost them
the state championship. From the
reports brought back to Topeka the
game was one of the best played on
Kansas gridiron during the day and
was holly contested thruout. The
teams were evenly matched and they
fought hard from start to finish.
The Manhattan lads took the lead
in the game in the opening period
when, after line smashes had carried
the ball to the 35-yard line. Houston
booted field goal for the Manhattan
ties Such a kick would be consid-
cred remarkable for a college player
and was enough to discourage the To-
pekans, but it only seemed to make
them more determined and to fight
harder.
A 25-yard pass, Lindell to Yonkers
gave the Topekans their first score
and they made good every advantage
by kicking goal A field goal after a
fumblcd punt gave them their final
points Manhattan made her only
touchdown in the third quarter, but
this with another field goal by Hous-
tor was enough to win. The lineup:
