 Not only these pimples and splotches disfiguring. but they lead to serious skin diseases that spread and cause the most discomforting irritation and pain. Some- times they foretell Eczema, bols, blisters. scaly eruptions and other arnoyances that burn like flames of fire. and make you feel that your skin is atlaxe.

No More Concessions to Be Made
To HOldOutS

New York. March 1&.-Now that
the New York American league club
has been assured of the return Of
Frank Baker it has adopted a more
independent policy with regard to it'll,
holdouts. Ernest Shore, the pitch
ing ensign recently discharged from
naval service, has been invited to
come to Jacksonville and talk things
over with Miller Higgins.
But that is the extent of the con-
cession that the club will make. Der
rill Pratt, second baseman, and Dutch
Leonard, the left handed pitcher,
must sign at the last figures named
by the club or remain out.
I'VE have received the contract on
Frank O'Dowl, young pitcher
drafted from the Sacramento club,
yesterday, which leaves only Shore,
Leonard and Pratt unsigned" said
Harry Sparrow yesterday.
1.-THE club has invited Shore to run
over to Jacksonville from his home
at East Bend, n. c., to see Higgins.
There is not a great deal of differ
ence between the club and Shore and
we do not expect to have any troIfble
in signing him. ="
Leonard's Terms Exorbitant.
"Shore will be the only unsigned
player permitted at the camp. The
others have our latest terms, and
that is as far as we will go with
them. We shall make no further at
tempt to go after Pratt or Leonard.
If they want to play they know whera.
they can find us"
Bob Connery recently visited Leon
ard on his orange farm near Fresno,
but was unable to bulge the left
handler. The club believes that
Leonard's terms are exorbitant and
the offer that COnnery made in behalf
of the club was as far as the owners
of the team will go. They figure they
will have quite a pitching staff even
without Leonard.
similar attitude is being taken I'm
the case of Pratt. His play last sea-
son hardly came up to expectations.
His fielding especially was poor early
in the spring. The club believes he
is worth about the same as several
other members of the club, all Of
whom were offered the same salary.
This does not mean that the club
undertakes either Leonard or Pratt.
Both players would be handy mena-
bers of the team, but Col. Huston
said IT will close the doors before
let myself be held up"

Barron Meets HoIdOuts i'm New York
on Eve of Sailing.

New York, March 1S.-The Boston
Am orleans squad of holdouts was
reduced by four yesterday, when the
main squad arrived in this city on its
way to the training camp at Tampa.
Ed Barrow met Herbert Pennock,
Amos Strunk and Wally Schang here,
and before they knew what had hap
pened they had signed their con-
tracts. All seemed happy. From
Boston came the word that Dave
Shean had put his signature to a con-
tract there. The holdouts now are
headed by Babe Ruth, with Pitchers
Bush and Mays as companions.
The Red Sox sailed today on the
Arapa hoe for Jacksonville where they
will entrain for Tampa. Some of the
Yankees had been scheduled to go by
that boat, but nobody volunteered to
brave the perils of the deep and the
reservations had to be Cancelled. This
makes it look as if that submarine
trip to Boston was off.
