Department Of Labor Ends In
vestigation OF Breadwinners
In 100 Cities.

Breadwinners in American families
during 1919 were at the ratio OF
elevcn men TO every woman. accord,
ing 20 a survey OF sources of incomes
in close to 100 leading American cities
by Department OF Labor investi-
gators. The cities include Chicago,
New York. Denver. San Francisco,
Seattle and Cleveland. The results
Of the survey were given out today.
1t shows that In practically every city
women composed from b TO 10 per cent
of the breadwinners OF the family,
In one city the number of feminine
mainstays outnumbered the men
more than three to one.
This was Ia Johnstown. ~. y,
where 16.9 per cent OF the sources OF
income for families were women.
This high percentage is due to the
fact that glove making is a leading
industry OF the town, and furnishes
work which women can do at home.
According to the survey the per-
centage of families having incomes
from children totals 1876 per cent.
The percentage OF families having
incomes from nc earnings of wives
varies widely in different cities.
In Chicago. the percentage OF fam
lilies having income from the earning
OF wives was 1913; Cincinnati. 1873;

Baltimore, December 30-At the fail meetings of the four one-mile race tracks of Maryland, $3S, 100000 passed through the hands of the mutuel machines dur
 ing the 69 days of the racing, according to figures disclosed by the state racing commission today The commission did not begin operations until the spring season was over, but conservative estimates for the entire racing year Q10 days). place the amount at s60.o0O 900.
 The total net earnings of the four tracks for the fall season, according to their statement to the commission, were S ,S62 before deductions for new con struction, equipment and repairs were made, and s617 .002 after the deductions.

D. Bryan, his assistant, from sl5 00j to $5,0o0. An item of $500 for Bowie directors fee was cut to $1,200 ~

Big Six Teaches Pitchers Hou To
 Saue Their Arms
By JAMES J. CORBETT

Apparently the flinging persons no longer aspire to strike-out records.
 Back in the olden days the greateJt boast of any finger was that he could throw ball past the batsman. A pitcher took intense delight in achiev- ing a strike-out and each and every day found him worlSin gfor new rec ord in the matter of famed batsmen. This was true pp until Christy Mat thewson'S time. It was assumed until then that the greatest success a pitcher could win was to strike out the opposi- tion batsman. The idea of letting the man hit the ball and depending upon his support to retire the batter rarely occurred to pitchers in the earlier era
 "BIG SIX" CHANGES IDEA"
 But the coming of Big SiX' and his remarkable success awoke pitchers to the realization that trying to strike out every batsman was more or lfss of wasted effort. They discovered when Matthewson taught them that ball games could be won just as easily by letting the opposition hit the ball as by trying to strike out each foeman when he stepped to the plate.
 Of all the great pitchers, Matthewson probably yielded more hits in an aver age game than any of the group. Ex- blaming this, the wonderful twirler said:
 What is the use of having support if you don't use it? My eight teammates are on the field for the purpose of rem dering me every defensive assistance possible They are experienced men and skillful fielders. They can be de- pended upon to grab most of the balls hit in their direction and retire the batsman, so naturally I depend upon them.
 FOOLISH EFFORT
 T consider it rather foolish for a pitcher to go out to the mound and try to do all the work himself. It is ter rifle strain on a mans arm to throw the ball past every batsman. Such pro- gramme shortens a pitchers career by many years Furthermore. when pitcher practically throws his arms out In every game, he is not very effective
 "A pitchers arm must be saved from strain except in an absolute emergency. When l pitched l never tried to strike out batsman until such feat was ab- solutely necessary to win or save a ball game. Therefore, by taking it easy with my arm during the greater part of the game, I had lot of reserve en- ergy stored up and usually was sue cessful in either striking out the bat ter or forcing him to hit the ball for an easy out The rest of the time I
 
 could hit it. but try to put 1t there in such way that when he did hit it, he wasn't causing any damage by his blow"
 USED BRAIN
 Matty in other words, used his brain as well as his arm. Other pitchers who used only their arms and suffered ter rifle strains, quickly came to the reali- zation that Matty's system was the bet ter one. They adopted it and through the years Matthewsons method of pitching has become almost universal Pitchers. of course, still try to strike out opposition hitters, but they don't try to strike out every one
 Matty taught the fingers how to save thelr arms and stil win ball games. and they have learned their lesson well from one of the most remarkable pitch CTS that ever lived.

PRESENT JACK DIFFERS
 FROM THE NONPAREIL

The present Jack Dempsey has orl ly
 two things In common with the Nom pareil-the choice of the same boxing nom de plume and the ability to scrap. Outside of that, they are as much alike
 as a fish and a cucumber. The Non pareil, for example, made less money than any American fighter that ever held the heavyweight title. That cf n hardly be said of the present Dempsey. The Nonpareil fought for the love of the game the present Dempsey wants
 the jack
 All of which is true, but who can Elame the present Dempsey for want ing the jack?" There is no great sat i isfsction for a boxer after his days in the ring are done and he is broke. No matter how great fighter may have been in his day, he is soon forgotten and looked down upon when once he ] is broke.-Memphis Commercial Ap- neal

SOLAR PLEXUS BLOW
 DID IT-BRENNAN

T was going strong until that blow in the solar plexus," said Brennan after his big bout with Jack Dempsey T was just unlucky. I had failed to 'duck' that punch I had tucked n.any others. but I was unlucky to run into that one. When it landed I couldn't breathe. I felt as though I was being smothered-that same man had a grip on my throat. Up to that time Demp> sey hadn't hurt me. I had walloped him good and plenty. He felt my punches. He knew I was in the ring and in front of him. Fight him again? Any time and any place. I'd like to make a match for 25 rounds or nore. I'm certain I'd get him in long bout" Brooklyn Daily Eagle

Second Week
 Of City Cage
 LeagueOpens
By @PoNzp MILLS

The second week of the city basketball league is sure to give the followers of ! the basket game some good contests. The six contesting teams have put in the past week with some hard practice and are promising their supporters a better ' brand of play tomorrow night than that but up last Wednesday night.
 The three Victorious Elves, Central IY Nj. C. A., Birn1ingha Southern Re- serves, and Sloss-Sheffield By-Products plant are anxious to keep their slates clean, while the three defeated teams | Stockham Y. M. c. A. North Birming- ham Community and Adamson Motor company. are rearing for revenge and 1 they expect to take it out on their op- ponents.
 The feature match of the evening will mo doubt be the one in which the Central !. Nj c. A. and the Birming gham-South- em Reserves meet, for both of these teams put up the best game of the night last Wednesday and fur should fly when they meet.
 Central "Y'' has been strengthened tho past week by the addition of Tram Ses- sions. formerly of 1he FIniversdty of Alabama squad, it is said.
 The first match on the programme will be that between Adamson Motor Car company and Stockham ~" This game should be a fight from start to finish, as both teams lost last week and each is anxious to win and put itself on a footing with some of the other lives. Both quints exhibited poor pass work | last Wednesday, but have been working hard the past week to remedy this.
 In the last setto, North Birmingham Community and Sloss-Sheffield clash and this should be another good battle, as these quintets seem to be evenly matched ard both are confident of winning.
 These games are open to the public and all are welcome. Fans are assured of some good basketball Wednesday. The standings follow:

OTHER JOBS FILLED
CRAYATH AT SALT LAKE

Gavvy Crayath, whom Wild Bill Dono- van replaced as Philly manager, has signed to manage the Salt Lake team, replacing Ernie Johnson, who goes to the White Sox as shortstop. If Gavvy has retained his batting eye, he ought to establish new minor league record for home runs in Salt Lake, where the manufacture of four-base hits is easy.
 When Iris Speaker steered the Indians to a worlds championship in October he accomplished what only six playing managers before him had succeeded in doing in the last 20 years.
 Jimmy Collins was the first playing manager to turn the trick. He did so in 1905, when he led the Red Sox to vic- tory over the Pirates. Fielder Jones was the next. playing center field and man. aging the White Sox champions in 1906.

months have passed since then, but the berth is still vacant.
 Lee Fohl has been mentioned as Burke's logical successor. Clarence Rowland was suggested as possible pilot of the Browns, but as he has accepted the managership of an American asso- citation club, he is, of course, out of the running.
 OTHER JOBS FILLED
 All the other jobs have been filled. Johnny Evers quit his job as assistant to John McGraw at New York and moved to Chicago to replace Fred Mitchell, who went back to Boston to take the place vacated by George Stall- ings, who now is owner and manager of the Rochester International league. club.
 Ed Barrow left the Red Sox to be- come business manager of the New York Tanks, and Hugh Duffy has taken his place. Barrows move means, perhaps, that If Miller Higgins falls down on the job this year, Ruppert and Huston will have a man handy to take the team over at moments notice. Or, it may indicate that the two -colonels believe two heads are better than one and that Barrow, in addition to acting as business manager, will also aid Huggins in an advisory way
