ERED FULTON has finally thawed

Too bad it didn't soak through the

from his wedding trip this week and
proceeded 90 jump from honeymoon

SAVING MACK

Athletic Leader Greatest
Exponent of "Hooveriz-
ing" in the Game.
RIGHT AT HOME
WITH SCARCITY
~ JACK NEIOCk.

.TTERBERT HOOVER has nothing on
II Connie Mack.
When It comes TO frugality. eff
cheney and far-sightedness the keen
ness Of the national food admins
traitor is acknowledged. but he might
learn a few things from the long, lean
boss Of the Athletics at that.
Everybody interested In base
ball thought Mack had pulled a
prize bone when he made his last
big deal with the Boston Red SOI.
Visions OF the Athletics playing
TO empty seats and tHizin Ethe role
Of the American leagues dOormat
were common.
But take time to look over the fruits
Of 8Lack's labors in getting a ball club
together. You'll find that the AS are
not the worst looking ball club that
ever posed as a major league organI-
cation by a whole lot And Mack has
made mOney-lOts Of it-and has the
nucleus OF another winner If the war
doesn't hand him another solid kick
in the Stats.
Connie has made better first base
man out OF george Burns eA-DeLrOlL
PLAYER, than Burns ever was before
George is playing bangup ball for the
as, and what's more, he's hitting like
a piledriver and his hits have been
timely. In addition Connie has IN
sarthed two young infielders In Shan
non and Dugan, who remind many
fans Of Barry and Collins when they
came out OF college Larry Gardner,
Rube Oldring and TiIlie Walker are
good enough for Jobs on most any
mans club, while outfielder Jameson
Is developing fast 1IcAvoy and Per
zins, the catchers, are delivering for
Mack, while in Scott Perry, the new
sensation from the Southern league; |

Mack has four good pitchers
How does he do its That's
IIHclE'g secret. He simply goes
out and gets 'em while other man
ayers howl over the scarcity Of
talent.
