By these figures McQuillan's
class is proved-how he turned
back the Evas with very few vast
ed pitches. McQuillan believes in
pitching to make batters hit. He
works easily and decisively, never
making a false move; and is like a
wise in the pinches, throwing only
such balls that are either decep-
tive to the batter. or those that
will make them hit for easy outs.
McQuillan's splendid exhibition
yesterday in his Three-Eye debut
indicates that he will have very
little trouble in disposing of all
teams he meets in the remaining
games.
George has a bundle of stuff, ex-
cellent control, and can "cut 'em
in" with the heaviest batters at
the plate.
Beyond that, MAC" Is a veteran
in point of restraining himself.
He never makes q false move with
his arm, and the same might be
equally said of his gray matter.
The Evas close their final Rock
Island series today. At this time
before today's game, the series
stands two out Of three for the Is.
landers. AL Bashang and his kids
have found the going rough, even
as Bloomington did. This would
indicate that Rock Island, when al
best. is playing far better than the
average team that is in the cellar
This, at least, is a hopeful sign fol
next season.

CHUMS OF
BOYHOOD RALLY
TO LOWDEN
Sunrise, Minn., Birthplace of
illinois Governor, Backs
Him for President.
The LOWDEN SWIMMING HOLE
Early Friends of Governor See Village
Famous as Cradle of President
-"Born in Sunrise and Been
Awake Ever Since"

Sunrise, Minn., sleepy little village
with a population of 200, has found a
place in the political sun! Politics has
put the village on the map and it ex-
poets to stay there For Gov. Frank
0. LOwden of Illinois, one of the lead
ing candidates for the Republican
presidential nomination, was born in
Sunrise ffty-nine years ago. His boy
hood chums and neighbors are con-
SciOus of the fame thrust upon them.
Perhaps the most enthusiastic Lowden-
forpresident club in the country is
the one that meets in Sunrise, now in
the village hall, now in Andrew Lind's
general store.
1t is many years since the Lowdens
made their home in Sunrise-more
than half century, in fact-but the
village has never forgotten the family,
least of all little Frank" The old
shed where Lorenzo LOwden, the gov
ernor'S father had his blacksmith
shop, still stands 1t is the property
Of the LOwden children, used only for
storage purposes-and for the ghost
games Which, the folk say, were start
ed by Frank Lowden The Lowden
home still stands, too. 1t is an old
fashioned dwelling that occupies a rise
of ground two miles from the village.
There is a third building in Sunrise
that figured in the governors bOyhood.
&c 10 I
LOwden helped to build it so his boy
could have a schooling The one-rOom
structure is but stones throw from
the blacksmith shop. 1t is no longer
a school, having been succeeded by
more modern building, but is now the
village hall. A picture of the Illinois
governor hangs on the wall, and I'M
der its roof the Lowden club holds
meetings.
The Sunrise folk are full of stories
about Frank Lowden.
"He was a studious child" said
Henry Voss, one of the governors
after he had learned
to read he used to walk back and forth
between the school and home, a dis
tance Of two miles, carrying a book
before his face. The boys would speak
to him and he wouldn't answer. If
we annoyed him when he was interest
ed he would stop and trounce us. Or"
Yoss added, with a twinkle, "at least
he'd try to-"
In bend of the river near town is
the swimming hole where Franks
career was almost cut short. The boy
was passionately fond of the water
and in the spring could scarcely wait
for the ice to go out.

LAST LINCOLN PALLBEARER
LOOKS TO LOWDEN TO LEAD
Simeon w. King, Friend of Emanci-
pator, Expects IIIinoisan's Record
to Make Him Party Choice.

Simeon W. King, active in Illinois
Republican politics for 20 years and
the last surviving pallbearer who Off
ciated at the funeral services for
Abraham Lincoln held in Chicago. has
declared his intention of su u9portin0
Governor Frank 0. Lowden for presi-
dent.
Il have voted for every Republican
president since Lincoln and | exnact
to cast my ballot for Lowden next
November" said Mr. King. Il have
known Frank Lowden for thirty wears
and he is just the type of man the
country needs for president in this
crisis Of the country's history. He is
able, honest, progressive, experienced
and efficient l remember when he
first came to Chicago as a poor young
man to study law. ] saw him admitted
to the bar and later enter public life
and rise TO fame, and feel proud of
his great success.
"He has proven the best governor
illinois has ever had and we have
had some great executives in the his
cory Of the state.

ments Of Whatever kind designed -
increase national efficiency. "
The governor kept in close norsona,
touch with the Illinois boys in xbali
and blue. He visited them in +haf,
camps Travelled to the seaboard 70 hid
Godspeed to departing contingents and
was at New York to give welcome IN
the name of the state to the veterans
who came back at the close of tho
fighting.
His interest in the soldiers was nor
merely official. Among them was his
own son, Pullman Lowden-a member
OF the Prairie division. In that divi-
sion was the Dandy First" regiment
OF the Illinois national guard with
which LoWden served for three wears
as Heutenant-colonel. Pullman went
overseas with his outfit. did his bit in
the ranks as common soldier. and
came back with the cherished gold
service stripes.

LOWDEN FOR ECONOM.
Term as Governor a Record {
Saving and Efficiency.
Simplifies Management Of State A
fairs With Results Profitable
to the Tax Payers,

The high cost of government ha
supplied the supporters of Frank
Lowden the platform on which the
are confident he will be elected pres
dent of the United States.
Governor Lowden was born on
farm and worked his way throug
school by teaching. He is a produC
of the Middle West, having been Dor
In Minnesota, raised in Iowa and the
coming to Chicago. He worked as
clerk in a chicago law Office for SS
week while preparing for his profes
sion. Later he entered politics. H
was thrice elected congressman from
the Thirteenth Illinois district before
voluntarily retiring.
He was elected governor Of the
state in 1916 by a tremendous plu
rality and his record as chief execu
tive has put him IN the list of presi
Dental possibilities. Friends of the
governor explain that he had to be
dragged into the race for president
Certainly he does not seem to worry
about the outcome of the campaign.
81 think one of the greatest needs
of the country today is a stronger,
finer, happier Americanism," said Gov
ernor LOwden. "We can compel aliens
to respect our form of government,
or get out, and that we must do. At
the same time we are under the pro-
found necessity of earning that re-
spect from all right thinking men. We
are hearing strong preachments
against profiteering and extravaganza.
Yet it is hardly dawning on the pub
lie mind that we can be paying excess
ively for government, as we'll as for
sugar meat or fuel.
'nlinois formerly had 125 separate
boards and commissions handling it's
affairs. No one man. no score of men,
were responsible A premium was
put on spending.
"Under my administration these
bureaus have been consolidated into
nine departments, whose chiefs reside
at the state capital and are held in
divdually responsible. One effect of
this has been to reduce the tax rate
of the state 33 per cent in two years.
Adoption of a budget system has been
a valuable adjunct in saving the tax
payers money. / think efficiency and
economy in government is one mighty
step in the direction of improved
Americanism."
The Snowflake herald., 1920-03-05

''See right over there in the center?"
asked Voss. That's where Frank
nearly drowned. Trying to do what
the older and stronger boys did he
got up on the springboard and plunged
off in ten feet of water. TheO. Voss
saw his head bob up, go down, come
up second time and again disappear.
Theo dived in, few feet down the
current. caught him by the hair and
dragged him ashore. We poured the
water out of him and in few minutes
he was as right as ever"
'Lowden's swimming hole" is still
popular with the boys of the neighbor-
hood.
Many of the governors old friends
are now at North Branch, ten miles
from Sunrise. Among them is S. w.
Runyan, who had something to do
with Franks education
81 taught Frank to hunt squirrels"
said Runyan. "We covered many a
mile of this country with our gun and
dogs"
The Lowdens left Sunrise in the
late sixties. The last picture of
Franks boyhood that remains with
the old residents is that of sturdy
little chap, dressed for travel, march
ing off down the road behind the
prairie schooner" that bore all the
Lowden effects to their new home in
Iowa. There was nothing forlorn
about the picture. The boy was cheer
full wideawake and on the lookout for
something to do Alertness was char
acteristic of him.
Said Henry VOss, the village philos-
opher, speaking of his old friend:
"Frank was born here in Sunrise
and it kind of appears that he has
been awake ever since"
