NEVER AGAIN"
ssSAY MAGNATES
(By the United Press)


NEW YORK. Sept. l2.-No more
short seasonsl That's the cry OF the
magnates in both major leagues.
The 14O game season tried this
year has the club owners standing
on their ear when they figure the
money that has been lost through the
departure from the usual 154 game
schedule.
The plan. suggested and pushed
through by Ban Johnson, president
OF the American League. was adopt
ed to safeguard the club owners
against the slump in sporting inter-
est that some pessimists had predict
ed as an aftermath of the war. But
II worked just the other way. Sports
are on the biggest boom OF history.
Especially has the revival of inter-
est been noticed In baseball. Crowds
have jammed the yards of all the ma
jor league teams. Cincinnati,
Cleveland, New York. Chicago and
Detroit have been unable to take
care Of the Sunday and holiday
crowds.
Detroit and Cleveland are partic-
ularly sore at the short season ar
rangement as they both have a
chance for the American League
flag and might make their way into
worlds series coin II they had the
usual fourteen more games to go. (

Use For Potato Bugs

In the molten days of midsummer,
when angleworms are scarce and the
perch and bluegill may be ensnared if
the proper TAFT is used, Eldon ulrich,
10 years old, scores his financial sue
.cesses. And, incidentally, he contrib
utes good tip to all fishermen.
Young Ulrich conceived the idea that
the soft-shelled potato bug would make
an excellent lure for fish, particularly
when good angleworms were hard to
obtain. He picked canful of the bugs
and experimental The result was
handsome string. And from that day
of his experiment his success began.
The neightors and truck gardeners
welcomed him when he appeared to
gather supply, and the business and
professional men, unable to solve the
bait question, were ready customers
At so cents for good-sized supply of
the bugs, Ulrich has already accumu-
lated a good bank account His aim
is to make enough to get university
education.
He digs angleworms in the low,
marshy places for customers who will
not accept his proved theory regard
ing the bugs, but his trade in that COM
modify grows less every day as the
reports of his bug users are received.
His idea for next year is to cultivate

bug crop.-Three Rivers (Mich.) Cor
