ASK MONEY BACK
Purchasers of Baseball Books
Here Want Refund.
They Object to Helping Support

s. A large number of the lot pur-
chasers of baseball ticket books

played in Topeka-are wondering
when Spencer Arthur Abbott expects

Before the deal was made providing

announced that every book purchaser

But since the deal was closed. nothing
has been heard and many are becom-
ing uneasy.
Purchaser Makes Kick.
One well known fan who was pur-
chaser. said today: II bought a book
to help out baseball in Topeka, not
in Hutchinson, and since. the team has
been moved away, I want my money
back. 1t is not so much the money
that I want back as 1t is the feeling
that until it is returned I am helping
to support a baseball team in Hutch

my liking

Chamber of Commerce committee that
put on the book sale before a fran
chise was given to Abbott, said today

had received number of inquiries
about the matter. However, he said
he believes Abbott will make arrange
ments to refund the money just as
soon as possible.

There is no doubt but that the re-
fund will be made. In the first place
Abbott's friends believe he would
make personal sacrifices to do it, il
necessary. but even if he should not,
the league could be held responsible.
Neither Abbott nor the league could
afford to allow q debt like this to
hang over them.
An effort was made to locate Alb
bott today to get a statement from
him, but he is in Hutchinson with his

HEIRESS ON STAGE
Kansas City Girl Here for Pur-
pose of Losing Weight.
She Heard Dancing in Chorus
Would Reduce Her.
HAS JUST INHERITED $50, 900
Also Recently Ran Away and
Married Soldier.
She Never Acted Before, But
She's "Some Dancer"
HAS JUST INHERITED $50, 900

The newest of the countless reasons
for going on the stage. is given by a
late recruit to the musical comedy
drama, playing in Topeka this week.
This girl is there to reduce" And
going Sn the stage is actually the ulti-
mate and unfailing means OF accom-
plishing that purpose.
The girl who is entering the pro-
fession is with Miss Grace RUSSELL
company. now playing at the Majestic.
Her stage name is Dolpha Dale. and
real name is-or rather, was-Dolpha
Colgrove, of the well-to-do Colgrove
family of Kansas City, owners OF the
Oldham hotel. She is just a young
girl-about 10, less than five feet
tall. and before entering the company
she weighed 1874 pounds. After one
day of dancing for the musical COM
edy, she lost four pounds. She had
been taught dancing. to be sure, but
she had never before actually worked
at it, hours on end, and after seeing
the girls in action, there is no doubt
left that it is real work.
She's Married, Boys!
Miss Dale was student in Harden
college, a Missouri finishing school
and at Valparaiso university. She was
taught music and various accomplish
ments. Her mother, who is personal
friend of Miss Russell's, decided to
ask a place for her in the company
for the summer. but found just last
week, that Dolpha had run away one
day and married a young man, CAST
mir j. Lodygo. who was a chemistry
student in college. and the marriage
had been kept secret. But luckily
for the company, the young man
who is under military age, volunteered
for army service. He was accepted
within an hour, and by o'clock the
same afternoon, was on his way to
j Jefferson barracks for training. There
upon his young wife was free to go
onto the stage. and Joined the COM
pany on its way thru Kansas City last
week.
The young dancer has recently in
herited fortune of $4,000 from her
grandmother, and she is the sole he'll
to the fortune of her parents. And
how she can dance! The divine1y tall
daughters Of the gods have nothing
ON her when it comes to the quick,
elastic and energetic kick.

''HUc" A RIND00'
Yankee Pilot Uses Majestic
Power in Handling Pitchers.
Getting Results From Them Sc
cret of His Success.
JACK vEIoCK.

BY JACK FE1OCk.
New York. June 5-Midget Miller
Higgins, boss of the Yankees. is
Hindoo when it comes to getting work
out of the pitchers.
His manipulation of the sharp
shooters, more than anything else, has
been responsible for the show of life
made by the Yankees of 1918, and
while the heavy-hitting members of
the team have done their share in the
way of making runs. it has been the
pitching staff which turned back the
opposition.
Started Under Handicap.
Higgins was a stranger to the
members of the Yanks when the squad
invaded Macon. Ga, last spring. and
his players were strangers to him for
the most part. He had seen one or
two of his men in action, but that
was all, and he had to make his cal
culations regarding the value of this
or that player on comparatively short
notice.
Then just about the time the team
was ready to quit camp and start
northward. Bob Shawkey found that
he had been placed in class la of
the National Army draft, and left the
team to enlist. The loss of Shawkey
was a hard blow, but Higgins grinned,
set his jaw and went after the remain
ing members of the pitching staff de-
termined to mould them into a COM
bination of winners.
Hes Good General
The secret of it all lies with Hug
gins and his generalship in handling
his hurlers. In Caldwell, Mogridge,
Love, Russell and Thormahlen Hug
can't be said to have a world beating
corps of wiSglers by any means, yet
he has made a good pitcher out of
Lave, has awakened new ambition in
the erstwhile erratic Ray Caldwell, and
is handling the rest of his men with a
master hand
