JACNDARRY'S ABILITY
IS RED SOX TEXT
Sport Writer SpeCuIates Of
LiklihOOd Of Boston Hold
ing Its Position

Boston. March Whether Boston
can repeat its American league cham
pionship again this year depends. il is
admitted, upon whether Jack Barry,
new manager Of the world S champions.
can drive his men 10 the same speed
attained by Bill Carrigan.
Jack started south today with his
first string men. Battery men and news
papermen were in the party that climb
ed aboard a train here for Hot Springs.
Ark, where the team again will con
dition itself
Charles Wagner, Joseph Dcvine, For
est Cady and battery men not in Boston
will join the train en- route.
The Red SOx present the same solid
front this year as year ago. The
battery men appear, if anything, to be
slightly stronger than when they took
the championship, and il that S the
ease little more could be expected.
Babe Ruth, southpaw star, should be
better this year. He has had more ex-
perience. WyekOff and Pennock, two
hurlers who have been long time ar.
irving, are expected TO show at their
best this year Joe Wod s arm, on his
own declaration, is ready for another
long season. George Foster says he has
recovered his cunning ana will accom-
pany the first party to Hot Springs.
Dutch Leonard, Ernest Shore and Carl
Mays are expected to be just as good
as ever.
The outfield probably will be com
posed of the veterans Lewis and Hoop
er, with Clarence Walker and Chick
Shorten alternating in the middle gar
den against right and left hand pitch
ing. This is an outfield which stands
out as one of the best in the game, com
bining fielding with hitting power.
There is rothing uncertain about the
infield. Dick ilobitzel and Del Gamer
are available for first base duty. Man
age Jack will be at second. Everett
Scott at shortstop and Larry Gardner
at third base. There will be no devia
tion from this unless Harold Janyrin
is played for a time at second in order
to give Barry a chance for rest.
The infield defense of the Red SoX
is only slightly less efficient than the
remarkable pitching staff which has
lifted the Sox into two world s cham
pionships in as many years. II is a
defense which tightens with such Wis
ible force that il is almost impossible
for an opposing team to send win
ming run over in n close game. The
presence Of Jack Barry, balancing ev-
cry cog, the GOODNESS of the veteran
Gardner, has balanced this club as no
other in the country.
The Red Sox and the Dodgers will
open series of spring exhibition
games when they appear March 2s in
Memphis. From there they will go TO

Ladd & Bush Quarterly Shows
Salem As Il Was and
As Il Now Is

Salem is the home of magazine that
is now being mailed to Gj00 friends
and customers Of the Ladd & Bush
bank The magazine is the Ladd &
Bush Quarterly and the issue now be-
ing mailed is not only Of unusual in
terest to those who live in Salem and
vicinity, but to the general reader in
terested in Oregon.
In the way Of comparing what was
and what is, the quarterly has several
illustrations Of business streets 20
years ago and at the present time. The
Roth Grocery Co. site in all its modern
up to date style as we now see it, was
occupied by one story old shack shad-
ed with large trees.
Where the Ryan building now stands
there was few years ago, as shown
in the illustrations, several little one
story shaeks. one Of them bearing the
sign, "Smith Whelan, general black
smithing"
The modern buildings known as the
Steusloff and Wagner blocks are on
sites that 90 years ago were occupied
by low one story buildings that were
mostly roof.
The quarterly compares on anOther
page the wonderful growth in the city
within the past 20 years by showing
the W. W. Moore furniture building of
today and the ramshaekle one story
frame store that occupied the site in
the days gone by.
Students Of history will find an in

map showing just about how much our

now the United States. 1t shows that
the U. s. in 1878 was nothing much
more than fringe along the Atlantic

WOMEN APPLE PICkERS
There VIII Be a Big Demand for
Them in the State.

There is a new field of service in
which the women of Kansas can do
their bit to aid in the fight for
democracy-picking apples in the
orchards of the state. Requests for
women apple pickers already are be-
ginning to arrive at the state free
employment bureau and there are in
dications that many Kansas women
will be able to find such employment
this fall.
The Kansas apple harvest will be-
gin about September Is, according to
reports reaching the labor bureau.
Fruit growers explain in their letters
that women pickers are the most sat
isfactory and that the work is not too
strenuous for them.
One fruit grower at Granville has
asked the bureau to furnish him with
fifteen women apple pickers about the
middle of September. He says the
women may come prepared to camp
out and that excellent camping ground
will be furnished them.
