Reds to Line-Up In 1920
 the Same as In 1919
By A.soeIa,es Pres,

Cincinnati, February 2s.-There will be no trades involving the regulars of tha Cincinnati National League baseball team. August Hermann, resident of the champion Reds, made this declaration when told today of a
 New York dispatch stating that Man ager McGraw of the Giants had offered to exchange Pep" Young for Eddie
 Roush and Harry Kopf
 There is not one word of truth in any report that Roush, Kopf or any of our regular players are going to
 be traded to New York or any other club" said Mir. Hermann. Manager
 Moran intends to stand pat on his win ming team. We hope to have all the
 Toys signed up and ready to leave for the training camp on Friday morning.
 But whether they are signed or not, there will be no trades"
 the first show with headliners in sey- eral years-and a record crowd turned out to see the matmen work In the main bout Joe Stecher opposed Yussif Hussanc, while in the seni-firfal Waldek Zbyszko met Jim Londos, the Greek champion. Efforts are now being made by Pittsburg promoters to stage titu- lar match between Joe Stecher and Stan- islaus Zbysbko.
 James Jefferson Hogan, New York inventor, has rigged up contrfVance 10 throw baseballs in much the same fash ion that a pitcher delivers the ball. The machine can be made to curve the ball, and Hogan is offering it for sale to raa- jor league clubs who desire to train their players to bat. Hogan claims that in , few weeks batting against the machine- thrown balls, any player can improve his hitting ability at least 150 per cent. Now that the American League has ruled against the use of freak deliveries critics are wondering what Pitcher do with his delivery. Sothoron was never rated as spitballer or an -baller. nor even as a shineballer. but he is said to have a peculiar method of delivery that lies dangerously close to the illegal line. Iris Speaker says Sothoron has unique method of loading the seams of a ball and making them as smooth as pol ished glass. The Cleveland pilot says he will make a test case of Sothoron's deliv- cry the first time the Brown star faces the Indians.

 The subject of the emery and shine ball was introduced, and Doaks inter viewer inquired about Hod Eller the Reds hurling ace, said to possess a shine ball that was almost unhittable
 "Is is true that Eller depends entirely upon his shine ball for effectiveness?" l inquired of Doak, who replied:
 ''IIe does and he doesn't-Ill say one thing for Eller, he has the sinner down pretty pat. but then he also uses good curve and has a lot of speed. l don't think the new ruling will bother him a whole lot

 No matter how perfect the features, how radiant the complexion, just one little pim- pie will spoil it all. Not always can these little facial blem~l ishes be prevented, for they may be cansed by the too frequent of irritating scapss powders, rouge possibly impure blood
 Every care should be taken to preserve the skin, especially the face. neck. arms and hands. Only the purest and best steriiized toilet soap should be used to cleanse the skin, and when face powder must be em- ployed, of the highest quality should be selected
 When pimple pops out on your face, you don't have to remain indoors try to hide it. Simply touch the little spot with BLACK and WHITE Ointment and it will vanish al- most like magic. This little aid to beauty should be kept every womancs dressing table, because it is necessary toilet req uisite for removing other facial blemishes such as rough blotchy, sallow skin. The way it clears the complexion is marvellous. BLACK and WHITE SJap should always be used with the Ointment. Both are sold and guaranteed by all good drug stores at 25c each a package, the manufacturers will send postpaid on receipt of soc.

Cardinal Pitcher Says That Decision Against Freak Deliveries Will Hit
 Elm Hard

Bill Doak duly listed by Manager Branch Hickey as one of the three spit ball pitchers on the Cardinals, has been Interviewed at some length by a base ball writer in his home town of Pitts burgh- The burden of Bills talk is that he's not crossing bridges until he gets to them and that he will let 1921-when spitballing finally goes out of fashion take care of itself
 'I'm not the only National League pitcher who gets a hard wallop by the rev ruling-there are others, many who cannot throw as good a curve ball as myself In fact I believe that Dick Ru- dolph is the only so-called spitball pitcher who could, get by this season if the new ruling went into effect at once. Rudolph has a beautiful change of pace, wonder full control, good curve and invariably outguesses the batter said Doak.
 T know what I am going to do this summer-Pm going to try and develop my. curve ball, for without the splitter I am helpless, unless l can toss up a good curve. Then again I know the weakness of almost every batter in the National League and you can bet that in 1921 l won't be throwing the ball where bats are swinging.
