PHIL DOUGLAS CUTS
OUT ERRATIC PLAYS
Ioe Tinker Makes Valuable Pitch
er Out Of "ShuffIin' Phil"
Manager Found Him In Midst OF One
of His Celebrated Stunts Of Scat
terlng Red Paint and Sent
Him to Minors.

"Shuffin' Phil" Douglas has arrived
at last in the class of valuable pitch
ers.
He broke into professional ranks at
Rome, Ga, in the old Southeastern
league In 1910. The next year he was
star with Macon and the White Sox
looked him over In the spring Of 1872
finally sending him to Des Moines. The
next year Comiskey took another peep
at Douglas, but he finally landed with
San Francisco club and, because OF his
erratic ways, was released to Spokane
In July, 1913.
In 1914 and 1915 Douglas tried on
number Of new uniforms. He was
transferred to the Reds from Spokane
in the fall of 1913 and reported to
them the following spring, only to be
sold to Brooklyn and then sold to the
Cubs by the Dodgers before the season
closed.
In the spring of 1916 Joe Tinker ar
rived at Tampa, Fla, with his Cubs on
the Weeghman Special to find Douglas
there ahead Of him. And Phil was In
the midst Of one of his celebrated
stunts Of scattering red paint arounc

RANKIN JOHNSON is IN ARMY
Milwaukee Pitcher Follows Example
of His Father and Enlists-To

A. Rankin Johnson, pitcher with the
Milwaukee club Of the American Asso-
citation, plans to follow the example
of his father and enlist in the army,
He does not propose to join the sery-
ice. however, until the end of the base
ball season because he wants to earn
enough money to support his wife and
two children. my father and two
brothers already have enlisted, and |
hope to see the entire family enrolled

the town. Tinker woke Douglas up
with start then and there, handing
him railroad ticket and ordering him
to report to Mike Kelley at st. Paul.
This turn of events made pitcher
out of Douglas, or, at least, started
him on the road to become valuable
slabman. Tinker recalled him from
St Paul in September, 1916, and he
has been with the Cubs ever since.
This year he is taking his regular
turn, and he recently showed his eff
fectiyeness by handing the Giants a
beautiful cleaning at the Polo
Grounds.

Jack Hendricks was Il wise guy of

for Denver in the Western league and
was a mighty smart manager when he
pulled indianapolis through to a flag

persons thought Jack was due for a
reversal Of form early this year when
1t seemed the Cardinals, whom he is
managing, would never win another
game, but Jack has fooled some peO-
ple lust ms he did in Denver and the
Hoosler capital. One reason for jacks
reversal of form Is to be found in his
able lieutenants. Jack liked Bobby

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash II with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful Just plain mulsfied
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap n anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub It in. One or two teaspoonfulS
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly The lather rinses out cas-
lily and removes every particle OF dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and it
leaves IT fine and silky, bright, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months
