Breakup Seems Unlikely

But such a catastrophe will not be
launched over such relatively
trivial affair as the one now occupy
ing the attention of the fans. If, as
Secretary Walter Hapgood of the
Braves is reported as saying, the
Boston club fights the thing out in
court, it requires no stretch Of the
imagination to see the whole edifice
or organized base ball in ruins, but
1t is altogether improbable that the
Braves will resort to legal action, be-
case that would not reflect credit on
the management in court of equity.
The matter probably will be COM
promised by the Boston club accept
ing a player whom Mack is said to
be willing to transfer to the Hub.
sisting upon title to Perry, as the
pitcher says he will retire from base
ball rather than return to employ
ment under Manager Stallings.
Therefore a legal approval of the
commissions finding simply would
end Perry's diamond career and no.
body would be benefited.
The controversy has reopened
feud between Stallings and Mack
one that started just before the
world series of 1914 was played. At
that time Stallings panied Mack in
the press for his alleged refusal to
permit the Braves to practice at
Shibe Park the day before the series
opened.
The inside dope on the Perry case
is that the young man formerly failed
to keep in condition, that Stallings
became disgusted with him last sum-
mer and when the pitcher jumped the
Braves their pilot remarked he was
glad to be rid of pest" Inasmuch
as the Boston club made no move to
claim Perry until after he began to
win games for the Athletics. Stallings
is getting but little sympathy in this
case.

holly. anyhow. He was a game sport
and grinned, but his comrades said
things about the dearest girl.
Write to him often and always
cheeriIy. In heavens name. don't
about him. He is worried enough
about himself perhaps. If you are
woman and he loves you, don't write
as If you didn't care. Men are queer
folks and sometimes get foolish no
tions. Let him know in each letter
that you love him very dearly and
long for his return-but il you are
brave woman let him know that you
are doing your patriotic duty. just as
he is doing his. Play up to his lead.
Give him all the gossip of the neigh
bornood. Tell him of baby's tooth
and the neighbor's new born and what
Jenny Smith wore when she was mar
rfed. Don't bother him with finan-
cial matters if you can help it. Don't
