LEAGUE HEAD SHOULD NAME
SCORERS FOR SQUARE DEAL

It's about time for the National
commission to take some note OF the
wholesale bungling by official baseball
scorers.
The trouble with the present scor-
ing system Is that the scorers are
appointed by club owners. usually
from the ranks Of the homo town
baseball scribos and the usual result
is that tho records are bungled to
suit the vagaries OF the particular
scorer. resulting for the most part

a suggestion has been made that

When the Hillcrest team gets started
they don't know when to stop, as
shown in the second inning of the
game with Madeley on Saturday We

Lavender bears mentioning, as he
certainly made a couple Of catches

In holding a team the calibre OF
Madeley to two hits, Peters was surely

LIFT YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn
or calius so it lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from loekjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
TO use a drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is APP
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without infaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn't any freezone he can get
it at any wholesale drug house for you.
