PATHETIC REPORTER WROTE NOTED PLAY
Avery Hopwood, Author of "Fair and Warmer" Was
 Newspaper Man

Just 10 years ago a pathetic looking young man got off the Cleveland ex- press in Jersey City. He was the tail- est thing you ever saw. blond, pale and disconsolate and unknown. He imme- as a reporter on the Cleveland Leader in a New York hall bedroom and type writer and made four carbon copies of play he had brought with him. He sent it to four managers at once. Brady got it because he telegraphed his acceptance. while the three others waited to write theirs. The play was Clothes" the au- thor was Avery Hopwood
 Oh, yes, such things do happen You can verify this from Hopwood any night you can catch him at the Lambs He is still tall. but no longer quite so pathetic
 Clothes made money for everybody connected with it, even the author. His share of the loot he spent in doing the gentleman adventurer act all over the market from Paris to Wiesnichwo, buy Ing himself learning and experience Also, Clothes first introduced him to Grace George They dance together di- vinely now and make a wonderful pair, both so blond and slim and straight
 His Seven Days" was the first of the year-run type of farce Now, when he sends in a farce, such as Fair and Warmer which comes to the Jefferson theatre this week. the manager verifies his signature, reaches for a contract blank and says: Fine, Great! Sign here. please!" Becoming serious for a moment, Hopwood's greatest. claim to dramaturgic consideration is his ability to construct quick-stepping, amusing farces without using the eternal triangle as his theme. While not written neces- sarily for children they still move in healthy atmosphere The characters are always likeable Avery Hopwood is an influencing figure in decade which has practically freed the Ameri- can theatre from the nasty French farce.

Old U. of A. Star and Big League Ball Tosser Clans to Have Settled Down in Business

Del Pratt, who broke into malor league hall with the St Louis Browns and for six years was the guardian of the second sack on that team, and who was traded to the Yankees last season, threatens to quit baseball With all most positive assurance that the game will be revived next spring. it IS only natural that players will be issuing retirement and holdout bulletins and Derrilfs threat need not be taken too seriously
 Pratt's is the first of the retirement variety, hut he says he is not camou- Tagging with a view to prying more money out of the New York club
 treasury He claims he is sincere in his intentions to continue as a real iaborer.
 After the season closed Pratt took q job with the Bethlehem Steel cor roration at Lebanon, Pa .'I am up here with the steel work" he writes, and If things keep picking up as they have lately, I think my days as a pail player are over. 'Tis rather hard to say such a thing after baseball has put me on my feet, but you know old opportunity , knocks only once, and I think I hear the noise now am a real laboring man and working like a fool--but am getting sonew heie with it.

TICKET OFFICE AT MCCLELLAN HAS NO
 TICKET SELLER
Attempt to Aid Discharged Soldiers By Railroad Companies Thwarted.
 Can't Get Help

When the war department began dis charging the soldiers at Camp Mcclellan, ARniston, officials in the passenger traf- fife department of the Louisville and Nashville railroad company and the Southern Railway system, believing it to be the best for both themselves and for the soldiers, established a ticket office at the cantonment
 suitable house conveniently located was secured, furniture, fixtures, tick cts, folders and railroad literature were ordered and in due time were delivered and properly placed. Everything was ready for the opening, for the sale of tickets, except one thing-no ticket seller had been employed
 This was not oversight on the part of the railroad people, for be 1t known they realize the importance of ticket seller; no, it was not an oversight, but an obstacle they had failed to overcome They had been unable to find an avail able ticket seller anywhere
 And now the daily discharges from Camp Mcclellan average around 300 men, badly overworked and the soldiers de- layed, and still the camp ticket office remains closed. All because no tickle: seller can be found to take charge of it. 5 We have been trying to open the of- flee for several days, said James Free man, assistant general passenger agent of the Southern railway, but have been unable to find a man to take charge of 1t. That fact, perhaps, indicates how hard 1t is just now to get competent men for certain kinds of work"

WILL BE DELAY IN
 NAMING DIRECTOR
 GENERAL OF ROADS
Lovett's Resignation Leaves McAdOo Without Candidate Immediately at Hand to
 Recommend to Wilson

Washington December 5.-A new di- rector general of railroads to succeed William C. McAdoo may not be named for two weeks or more, it was salo to- day. The resignation of Robert LoNeee as director of the railroad admlnistra tion's division of capital expenditures announced today, and his inslstence oii gong back to his old duties as ehalr- man of the executive committee of the Union Pacific, was considered as nav ing left MT. McAdoo without a candi- date immediately at hand to recom- mend to President Wilson. It was stated authoritatively that the director gem eral is now looking about for men whom he may propose and it is considered probable that some one outside the railroad administration staff will be chosen.
 MT. McAdoo today conferred with his advisory staff of the railroad adminis- tration concerning proposed plans for supervising railroads when they are turned back to private management. Two differing plans are understood to have developed among his advisers. One is to have the railroads merge into re- gional groups, with common operating management to start and eventually to develop into common ownership, with the roads themselves selecting their regional management, in which the gov- ernment would be represented The other plan put forth is for the roads to operate individually and privately, com peting for service, but under the su- pervision of government agency, to be known perhaps as the department of transportation, headed by cabinet member. To this agency would be left largely the question of making proper rates, with quasi-judiciaf body within itself, of administering the common use of terminals and pooling of cars and, to a certain extent, the routing or freight traffic.
 Both plans would propose govern issues, and consequently of extentfons.
 These are only the barest outlines or the two ideas now developing in the minds of government officials as a re- suit of study of the railroad situation and both are subject to great modi- fication and refinement within the next few weeks. Director General McAdoo Is represented as not having made up his mind as to the best course to recom- mend in the present situation. The railroad administration is proceeding, roads back to private management within few months, regardless of whether Congress meanwhile author izes new measures for continued gov ernment supervision of some sort.
