TEXAS Lacquer
''BUSTS" UP GAME

DALLAS, Texas, Jan. 24-'Texas
Leaguers," recruits or stars from the
circuit of cities in the Lone S.ar state
making up that association, have
wrecked many ball games when they
passed on to the major leagues, but
I the Texas Lacquer" the hit itself, no
matter from what state the player
who delivered it came, has wrecked
many more. day by day variations OF
play have shown for years.
Every fan, from the lad at the knot
hole to the man in the box seats
knows a Texas Lacquer" when he
sees it drop safely just back of the
tinfield and out of reach of the out
| fielders, but few know the history of
the expression.
According to J. Doak Roberts. presi-
dent of the Texas league, and a man
| of life times experience in profess
sional baseball, the expression orig
mated in the early "nineties" when a
Disguised Syracuse pitcher gave vent
to Good Lord" Another of those
Texas leaguers," when Scrappy Bill
Joyce, third in a row of three Texas
league graduates dropped a short
safety back of the Syracuse infield.
The story antedates even the vet
eral Roberts. but this is his version
of it:
Emmett Rogers, Scrappy Bill Joyce,
and Arthur Sunday, three famous
players well remembered by all of the
old timers, were managers of the 1889
team of the Houston club, managed
by John McCloskey. They were the
first Texas leaguers ever sold to high
er company, netting the sum of $500
as a total purchase price.
The trio were finished stars, past
masters in the art of bunting and plac-
ing hits. The story goes that in their
first game in bigger company they
faced O'Brien, of Syracuse. Rogers
placed a hit over the infield, and the
Syracuse defense moved in. expecting
Sunday to bunt. Instead Sunday chip
shooted the ball and it dropped just
out of the reach of the .shortstop, who
could not get it back in time.
Joyce, too, was expected to bunt.
but he followed in Sundays wake,
dropping another short hit back of
third, scoring Rogers.
ut was then that O'Brien voiced
his disgust and coined a new term
for baseball"

VIENNA SETS UP
STRIKE RECORD

VIENNA, Jan. 24-Vienna set what
is probably a new record for strikes
in the year just ended. There were
927 of them in this city, partial or
complete, wild or organized.
Eight of them were carried over
into the new year, having taken in the
closing week of 1920. The most recent
of the strikes included employees of
government printing plants, workers
at the mint, actors and orchestras of
the national theatres, railway en-
ployes. women's tailors, dentists as
sistants, city employees and the gold
and silversmiths.
OF all the strikes which Vienna has
experienced in the last II months not
one loosed the flood gates of indig-
nation in the street and newspapers as
did the closing of the coffee houses for
five days, as the result of a demand
for. increased pay on the part OF the
employees. The Vienna coffee house
means vastly more to the resident or
Vienna than the club means to the
average American or Englishman.
There are tousandsl of Viennese
who transact most of their business
in the coffee houses, though they have
offices and staffs of clerks. Germans
say that the Austrian's passion for
sitting in the coffee houses all day
accounts for the fact that he had be-
fore the war but a small share Of
the worlds foreign trade.
There are several reasons for this
coffee house habit. One is that the
Viennese goes there to rest and most
of them appear to have been born
tired. He also grudges himself the
price of a newspaper, but in the eof-
fee house he obtains free the privilege
of reading nearly every Austrian
newspaper and many from foreign
countries, besides the illustrated week
lies and month1ies. In the course of
time he acquires the privilege Of oc-
cupying a table before one of the
spacious windows for which the Wen
ma coffee houses are renowned and
whence he may watch the procession
of women passing.

Officers Explain
 Misunderstanding
 Over Traffic Laws

Misunderstanding of the parking regulations in effect at Lowell was the cause of a recent request on the part of the Warren District Busi- ness Mems Association that the reg. ulations be removed, according to Lo- we'll peace officers.
 No arrests have been made yet under the ruling that cars may not be parked on the main street for more than one hour, and the purpose of the ruling was merely to prevent cars being left out on the street all day or all night when there is plenty of gnrage and other parking space avail able Ge
 The rule that cars must not be parked more than 12 inches from the curb must be enforced, t having been put into effect after several SC rious accidents had occurred. The main street at Lowell is too narrow to permit cars to park at the curb or an ablique.
