where the Glow In.
With Alexander and Vaughn
pitching to Killifer. the Cubs can
present the strongest battery COM
bination in the National League, IL
not in both leagues.
Alexander and Vaughn led the Ma
tional League pitching last year.
Hendrix was good. But Tyler and
the rest are sad uncertainties.
In the same way, where Cicotte,
Kerr and Williams are pitching Ito
Ray Schalk, the White Sox have
an exceptional amount of battery
strength to offer the enemy.
But three pitchers are hardly
enough for a 154-game hike that
runs from early April to October.
In Killifer and Schalk Chicago has
the best baseball carries.
But after these two are included,
with a limited supply OF great
pitching, the glow begins to fade.
Uncertain Infields.
The Cub infield Is decidedly rick
ETY.. with Hollocher. the main star,
and Herzog's physical condition a
guess.
The Sox have Collins and Weaver.
two luminaries. but first and thlro
are both up in the air.
The two teams seem to face trou-
BILE at the same identical spots
first and third.
Both outfields are at least up with
the average. Neither compares with
the outfield strength held by the
Tigers or Giants, but there Is
enough quality around to hold its
own.
The Gap.
Alexander and Vaughn together
should be good for fifty victories.
Hendrix should win fifteen. But as
it will take ninety-five victories to
land a pennant, where are thirty
others to come from?

HEAP YEAR BOWS"

Old Custom. Under New Name. Popu-
 lar Among Younger Members of the
 Fair Sex in This City.
 The Leap Year Bow" fad has struck this city and few of the fair sex have proven immune to the germ. Ribbons of various colors are worn each color having a meaning of it's own-affiXed to the left of the young woman's coiffure. Through a study of the coIors and their meanings, it is possible for a young man to find out immediately whether the wearer is anxious to cultivate an acquaintance not.
 The ribbons and their meanings are: Red, 'I want a fellow; blue, I'm true"; pink, I'm in love-; laven- der. I'm out for a good time"; black; i've lost my fellow''; yellow, "Im jealous; green, "Forsaken'; black and white, "I have one lover but I want another"; purple, ''Vamp."
 While the custom may not be re- membered as having been in vogue before, it has been popular under various names, chiefly ''Shoe Ties.' The colors and meanings have re- mained the same.

MURDER AND SUICIDE
 BARES DOUBLE LIFE
While Wife Waits at Home, Husband is Believed Killed
 By His Paramour.

Chicago, March 9.-Some of the de- tails of the dual life of Clifford NJ. Bleyer, president of an advertising agency which bears his name, were barred today by a murder and suicide or double murder, according to facts brought before the county coroner. Late last night, in an apartment in a fashionable Chicago neighborhood, the bodies of Bleyere and Mrs. Ruth Randall were found in bed, while Mrs. Bleyer was at her own home awaiting word from friends who were search ing for her husband who has been missing since Saturday night.
 Mrs. Randall, a vivaciously pretty woman. 27 years old, was divorced from her soldier husband, Norman Brown Randall, and had been em- ployed as an advertising writer EX- cerpts from a diary which was found in the apartm ent disclosed that she and Bleyer had been intimately asso- ciated for at least year.
 From the position in which the bodies were lying when the police, with some of Bleyer's friends burst into the apartment, the authorities be- lieye that Mrs. Randall shot Bleyer as he was sleeping beside her, and then turned the Weapon-a cheap re- vQlver-upon herself. Tending to strengthen their opinion there was found a poem in a woman'S hand writing. somewhat clever as to meter and rhyme. but almost maudlin in sentim ent which foretold the dra- matic conclusion of the two lives.
 B1eyer was the son of prominent Chicago family. His father, Charles F. Bleyer, is in Cuba. Young Bleyer was educated in fine arts in several European countries and some of his paintings are said to be noteworthy. It was while in Paris as a student that he met the woman who has become his widow They had two children.
 Mrs Randall was the daughter of H. E. Vale, a business man of Okla 41oma City.

Mill Also Insist on Improved
 Working Conditions
AWAIT DECISION ANXI0USLY
Commission Appointed By Wilson Expected to Make Report-High Cost of Living Argument Used By Workers

Indianapolis. March 9.-The Unit ed Mine Workers of America will re- fuse to accept the findings of the soft coal commission unless a substantial increase in wages and improved working conditions are provided it was inferred in a statement issued to- day from headquarters of the organ lzation. Officials of the mine work CTS were absent from the city and those in charge of the offices refused to comment on the statement.
 Nothing short of a substantial in crease in wages and improved work ing conditions will be acceptable to the United Mine Workers of Ameri- ca,' roads the statement.
 Are Awaiting Decision.
 The miners are awaiting the deci- sion with much anxiety. We believe the public will understand our posi- tion."
 Unless settlement of the con- troversy is made on such a basis the statement says, the miners will not feel that full justice has been done them.' The bituminous coal com mission was appointed by President Wilson to work out a suitable wage scale for the miners and report on any plans for improving living condi- tions after the strike of miners had enIed.
 There has been a steady increase in the cost of living since the first of this year." reads the statement, Sin spite Of the fact that the government reported to labor last summer that living costs would be reduced and the government would see to it that this was done. Further promises of re- ductions in the cost of living would fall on deaf ears. as far as the coal miners are concerned because they have had their experience with such promises in the past. all of which have gone unfulfilled.''

Chairman Fordney of Com mittee Thinks Delay is Plot

Washington, March Exchanges that members of the house ways and means committee were "endeavoring to kill bonus legislation by delay were made today by Chairman Ford ney when the committee resumed hearings on soldier relief legislation.
 II am ready to begin business now" the chairman said when members suggested hearings be postponed until after the legislative com mmittee of the American Legion has met on March soldier relief plans.
 II don't want to crowd this m eaSure but We know the attitude of former service men, the chairman contin ues "F,very officer who had good pay doesn't want bonus. The privates who suffered financial losses are over whelmingly in favor of some relief plan.'
 Representative K3tchin. democrat, North Carolina, said treasury depart ment officials ought to be heard by the committee before any plan was work ed out. Chairman Fordney replied that the attitude of treasury officials was well known.
 But we want to get their state mcnts into the record MT. kitchin replied.

VETS ORGANIZING
 FOR NEW BLILDING
Three Associations Are Getting To- gether for One Common Cause
 Plans NIateriaIiZing.

Following along the lines of the advice of public spirited citizens in New Britain, the Glover-Eddy post of the American Legion, the Rouil- lard-Linton post of the Soldiers, Sail ors and Marines, and the Koscuiszko post composed of Polish soldiers, have agreed upon a rough plan of com bination of all three to unite for the purpose of securing one big memorial building for the eX-service men of this city.
 The plan in it's completed form will be submitted to the various committees of the three posts for approval within the next two weeks. The committees in charge will sub init the plan at open meeting to their various units. Corporation Counsel James E. Cooper and Maurice Pease are at work at the present time 1egalizing the financial com bination of the three posts.
 This plan has received the sanction of city officials and of citizens who wish to donate to the fund but were prevented from doing so through fear of favoring any one post.
 The memorial building will be ex- actIy what has been needed in New Britain for some time. There will be a large auditorium that can be used for meetings of all kinds, trophy rooms, etc. The service men will have the final voice in arranging the details of the building and all men are urged to identify tn" .iselves with some organization so that they also may be associated with the city-wide movement.
