Clyde Cook "Borrows"
 "Poodles" Hanneford S
 Royal Chapeau

The friendship of Clyde Cook, the eccentric dancer in Happy Days at the New York Hippodrome, and ~ftPoodles'' Hanneford, the Hippo drome's equestrian clown, came near the breaking point recently and the cause of it all was a grey fedora hat, stored away in the riders dressing room at the big playhouse.
 Everyone who has seen the big spectacle knows that both Hanneford and Cook get a large proportion of their laughs through the destruction of elaborate quantities of hats at each performance. The two come dians go shopping for secondhand hats together, and in times of short age, borrow from each other Yes terday, Cook, finding himself com pletely out of hats, as he was about to go on, dashed into Hanneford's dressing room, expecting to borrow a hat. Finding no one in, he took the liberty of grabbing the first hat he saw, the grey fedora and took it on the stage. At that particular performance Cook was in fine fettle, and he celebrated by making the de- strucGon of the grey fedora a little more thorough than usual.
 Walking off at the end of his act. still feeling hilarious, Cook pranced to the Hanneford dressing room, threw the sad remains to Honneford who was then making up for his turn and shouted, Thanks old dear, for the loan of the hat.''
 My hat,'' yelled Hanneford. And it belonged to the Prince of Wales"
 Then it developed that the hat was the photographed grey fedora in which thee Prince of Wales ap- peared during much of his trip across Canada When the Prince came to New York, Hanneford determined to have an intimate souvenir of the royal visit, bought the hat from sailor aboard the ''Renown'' formerly a. groom at the Hanneford estate in England, who had rescued the bon net. when it was cast aside by the Princes valet as no longer fit for royal wear.

 ''Modesty,''' she continued, "can be carried too far, however. I remem- Der a young man who was as am- bilious as he was modest. He sent a letter to me asking my interest in his behalf. He wanted me to present his name to my manager for small part. He said he didn't care how small 1t was if he could only get a start.
 CT will begin anywhere he said, and will play dead bodies, outside shouts or thinking parts'.''
 NOW the singer concluded, t'he hires people to do this for him.

Australians Cannot
 Enthuse Over Stroke
 of Ross, US. Swimmer

New York, Feb. IT - If one may judge, from newspaper reports Aus ralians were somewhat disappointed in the swimming of Norman Ross, the famous American waterman, now en- gagged in a tour of their land. Most of the press found fault with his form on commenting upon his early race and expressed the opinion that his success is due rather to exceptional physical resources than to remarkable skill Nevertheless, Ross visit seems to have convinced the Autralians that the stroke developed in this country, the rudgeon-craw1, has it's advant- ages. They have never been able to see it's value in the past.
 One of Sydney's old-time cham pions writes to a New York friend on the subject: Your great swimmer, Nor man Ross, has given us our first glimpse of the trudegon-craw and I must admit now that it is a remarka- bIe stroke. Ross, himself, is one of the finest a11-around swimmers that ever was seen here. but it is debata- ble whether he would have been able to beat our own best star, the late Barney Kiernan.
 That your stroke should be won d6T1u1iy e1uC1GnI "hGA uSSO ny A really good swimmer have no doubt. Ross, however, has 8, bad arm action, particularly with the right arm, and I am led to wonder what he could do with perfect form, or what Kernan could have done had he known the trudgeon-craWl. Rem enber that the latter covered ss0 yards in II minutes Il 3-5 seconds with the trudgeon, 8 performance which will take some beating even today.
 q think the chief value of the trudgeon-craw is the adaptabilfty o1 it's leg drive to the distance in sight We have always claimed the superior ity of the crawl for spEinting, the
 trudgeon for longer courses, as you know. Your practice of adjusting the
 Ieg~actfon by merely reducing the major kicks for short distances an6 widening them gradually for the longer, but still retaining the same action of rhythm, appears to me { good step forward.
 "Our own type of crawl does no | lend itself to this simple adjustmen and that is the reason we felt skeptica 1 of the value of the trudgeon-cr
 until Ross recent appearance among
 us showed that we had not understoot fully such articles as we had reat I concerning the working of the stroke ttBut quite a few of our younge l swimmers were experim enting wit | the trudgeon-craw1 before seeinj
 Ross and now that they have had | practical demonstration of what i means not only they, but many oth | CTS, will undoubtedly take it up an 1 follow American methods.

FANS PLEASED
 AT FINISH OF
 MAYS TROUBLE

New York, Feb. 1.-The fear that the factiona1 fight in the American League would cast it's shadow on the forthcoming rannant race has, hap- oily, been dispened. and the club owners may now retire in a harmoni- ous group behind the scenes as the players prepare to bring the game it. self into prominence. The results of that long conference in Chicago must be viewed with satisfaction by all close followers of baseball regardless of where their sympathies may have rested during the bitter fight that grew out of the transfer of Carl Mays to the Yankees last August.
 The satisfaction of the fans is shared by those most interested in the struggle The insurgents as the New York-Chicag go-Boston owners were sometimes known, are less inclined to gloat over the success attained than over the fact that peace ogce more rules in the organization. That the five aligned with Ban Johnson were eager for peace is clearly attested by the concessions which they made at Chicago to bring the struggle to an end Despite the many warlike de- ,clarations of the club owners in the 4CSCIL pdols aA4 AdA DSCOhl0 ISA N1 the tedious battle and there was a realization that the public, too, had had more than it's fill of baseball wrangling without and within the courts.
 With the legal entanglements and much of the bitter feeling removed, the major league situation presents a far more attractive view and the game can now move on to what should prove to be the greatest seas on in major league history. Only the curtailed campaign of 1919 pre- vented the reaching of such heig h ts last year, and now the way is clear for the 1920 pennant races to eclipse in popular interest and attendance, all that has gone before. The Ma tiona1 League appears to be enjoy ing a condition of harmony that has been decidedly lacking in many recent years Its younger rival is close enough to real harmony to insure the port of baseball which the fan de- mands, that without dissension and legal trimmings.
 There is not likely to be another such conflict in the majors for many years to come, if ever. Each side in the younger circuit has taken a positive stand against any further pickering and a sincere desire by all to preserve harm ony is quite likely to produce such a happy result The tendency to let bygones be bygones is manifest alike among the insur- gents and 1oya1ists of a few days ago
 In the season about to begin it is very probable that the policies of Ban Johnson will De supported unani-
  vtgorouly as in the years before the big fight threatened the lite or tne 1 American League. In a way the SO lution of the American League diff 1 cu1ties. not on the program for the | Chicago meeting, means more to base | ball than the transaction of any busi- ness which the club owners gathered l to transact The game needs peace l to thrive and 1t is incumbent on the 1 club owners to see that this condi i ton continues to prevail.

Regrets

Madame Marguerite Sylva was the star of a big benefit in New York last week. While on the stage telling in her inimitabIe way the story of her songs and brightly chattering to the audience, evoking much merriment, she noticed one little fellow on the front seat. He gazed in rapt atten- ton on the beauty of the pri1na don na, but otherwise remained silent. The singer stepped to the footlight and in a most ingratiating manner inquired if he was enjoying himself. He assured her he was
 But you are not laughing like the others smiled Madame Sylva-
