Third Hutchinson Game.
Hollands Tribe Hit and Ran
Wild on the Bases.

Hutchinson had little trouble salt

afternoon. Nee's Kaws had an off
day and performed very much like vic
Tins of the blue Monday plague, losing
9 to o. They got six hits, but were
unable to use any of them to scoring
advantage and they played behind
pitching that was not up to standard.
Claim who started in the box APP
peared to be afflicted with first night
plague which made him both wild and
weak. Every Hutchinson batter was
given a chance to face him in the first
inning and four of them got safe hits
with two more drawing walks. These
indentations coupled with four stolen
bases enabled them to hang up four
runs.
In the second inning Claim drew

Anything akin to a. hit would have

and popped out to Benson.
Manager Nee, who did not break
into the hit column until Saturday,
came thru with two of Topeka

for two more of them. Hanger and
Meyer were the only others to fatten
their averages. Pitts led the visitors
in stick work. getting three hits out

more than his share of the fielding.
Eight chances came his way during
the afternoon and he accepted seven
of them without a bobble. On the
other he was accredited with an error

him from right to left field. Pre-
viously all of the fly balls had been
going to right, but as soon as Pitts
took up his position in left they all
went to left, the Kaws evidently be-

only himself and Roy Bentley on the
field it would have been just the same.

ACES ARE MONEY
Big League Clubs Must Have
Stars To Draw Crowds.
Cobb Is the Biggest Money
Getter in Baseball.
BY LACK yEIocK.

New York, May THE ball club
that has to worry along without a
playing "ace' is a back number as a
drawing card on the road.
The outstanding stars are the
aces in the big show. for their
names are kept before the public. and
the fans go out to see them perform.
Without them in the lineups of big
league clubs many and many thou
sands of dollars would wander away
from the turnsti1es.
The aces are the biggest assets
the magnates can boast of, and If you
will lamp the rosters of the sixteen
major league clubs you will find at
least one player on nearly every ros-
ter who figures as the real drawing
card of the team on the road.
Cobb Best Drawer.
Tyrus Raymond Cobb is the great
est drawing card in the business. He
is worth more to Detroit on the road
than all the rest of her players put
together, for the fans in rival towns
go out largely to see Cobb. unless the
Tigers are up there fighting for a
towns within easy riding distance of
the big league cities never miss a
chance to be on the job when Cobb is
billed to cavort at the ball park. So
Cobb alone is worth thousands of
dollars to Detroit at the turnstiles in
the course of a season.
Charley Weeghman. realizing the
value of publicity and the drawing
power of a real star. purchased Grover
Alexander. and Alex was to have
been the big ACE" of the Cubs before
he was drafted. He would have
played the part well, too.
Every Club Has It's Star.
CHANGING at the lineups of other
clubs we find the names of number
of players who play the same role
for their respective teams that Cobb
plays for Detroit. Cleveland has iris
tram Speaker, and Iris is a real card.
The White .Sox have Eddie Collins;
the Browns, George Sisler; the Cards,
Roger Hornsby; the Red Sox, Babe
Ruth and galaxy of stars: the Sena-
tors. Walter Johnson; the Giants
Ferdie Schupp; the Reds, Hal Chase;
the Dodgers, Al Mamaux, and the
Pirates, Max Carey. Dick Rudolph is
the outstanding star of the Braves.
and Frank Baker is the best adver-
tised player of the Yanks.

effort to stage rally in the ninth.
Nee also sent Red Roche in to pinch
hit for Kotzelnich, but he was un-
able to connect. The crowd was
probably the smallest since the open
ing day and Holland who holds the
record for having battled for po-
sition place to &c spectators in st.
Joe sarcastically advised Abbott that
he had better brace the grandstand
to make sure that it did not give way
under its overburden of human
weight. Abbott. however, only smiled
and said: I'm not worried about
our drawing ability They'll come
when they find out the kind of ball
team we've got. Anyway, I'll bet we
will outdraw Hutchinson two to one
Here's hoping Abb has the dope
right. He seems to have a team that
deserves real patronage and support.

MAKE WAR BREAD.
Baker DivuIges Secret Formula
for Patriotic Reasons.
Receipts for Housewife Baking
Also Are Given Out.

Wichita. Kan, May THE food
administration today made public. a
bakers formula for making victory
bread. which, under ordinary condi-
tons. could not have been obtained
from the baker at any price This
trade secret was revealed as a war
measure because there are a few
bakers who have been unsuccessful in
producing first class victory bread.
Bread made by the formula given out
today has been tasted by experts, who
say it is the equal of pure wheat
bread. The baker who furnished the
formula is one of the best known men
in his trade in the state.
Recipes for victory bread also are
given out today. These have been
tried out thousands of times by house
wives with success. The home DEM
of agriculture recommend them.
Bakers Bread Formula.
Following is the bakers bread
formula made public today:
Sponge-S ounces salt, 1870 pounds
water. liz pounds corn meal. Az
pounds yeast, III pounds corn flour,
i77h pounds wheat flour. Time,
hours Temperature. 80 degrees
Dough-159h pounds wheat flour,
IS u pounds corn starch, ASH pounds
corn flour, 1913 pounds water, 1 pound
yeast, pounds salt, 10 pounds sugar
I pounds vegetable oil, 6 pounds con-
densed milk. Punch this dough in
one hour and then take it in Is
minutes Total time of dough one and
cne-fourth hours. Temperature of
room should be about 80 degrees.
Victory bread formulas for the
housekeeper vary, according to her
experience in the use of substitutes
The general advice is to start with a
little substitute and gradually in
crease the amount. Housekeepers
who make failures of a batch of bread
should try again, for it is not infre-
Guent for young housekeepers to
make failure when attempting someI
thing entirely new. Following are the
recipes:
John Pershing Bread.
