YANKEES OR INDIANS
COULD ENTICE THOMAS

CLEVELAND, June a.-There were
just two teams that could have per-
suaded Chet Thomas to return to
baseball
zone of these is the Indians and
the other the Yankees" says Chet
who has reported to Big Chief Lee
Fohl ready to catch, play hrst, pinch
hit. coach or do anything else to
help the Indians win ball games
81 had practically made up my
mind to quit the game for good
when the deal was made by which
1 was transferred to Cleveland l
would never have played for Connie
Mack at any price.
But I like the Cleveland team
and like the Yankees. They're both
great ball clubs"
When Chet was sold to the Indians
by Connie, he was business manager
for Frank Lloyd's company Of Fox
movie actors in which William Far
mum is the star.
And he's going back to the movie
production business at Hollywood,
Cal, as soon as the ball seasons
over.
Sometimes fiu in on the cast, "
says Chet. "In one play this winter
I was a bartender, in another q cow
puncher, and in a third detective.
I'd have been here sooner but 1 was
in Arizona in charge OF a cast or
thirty-four players when the deal
was made and couldn't start till
l finished that job"
Chet still has some OF the flowing
locks that he allowed to grow to
help him look the part Of a real cow
puncher.

ITALIANS WRECK
GERMAN EMBASSY
ALL PORTRAITS OF THE GERMAN
EMPEROR WE'RE TORN DOWN
AND ITALIAN FLAG HolsTED.

Rome, June 27-During a celebra-
tion of the italian success on thePiave
today, a crown rushed to Capitoline
hill and burst into the Cafferali palace,
which before the war was the seat of
the German embassy and which IS
still German property. All portraits
of the German emperor were torn
down and the Italian flag hoisted over
the building.
The fact that the palace is still
owned by Germany has been the
cause of great Indignation among the
people of Rome, who since the entry
of Italy into the war have demanded
that Capitolin Hill be freed from it's
"Teutonic" stain.
The rage with which the people in
vaded the palace can therefore be
readily understood. They overturned
the throne placed there by the German
Emperor himself. tore some OF the
furniture to pices and after taring
down the portraits of the emperor and
raising the Italian flag, paraded the
main streets of the city with frag
ments of the emperors picture as
trophies.
