How to Ask Best Girl

are filed with divorce actions ard breach of

appear trivial in comparison.
Wait until you have the tickets clasped
firmly in the right hand and then spring the
big surprise as a telling climax. On the eve

girl casually bring it into the conversation.

TTENDING major sporting events is
II more of a science than an art. The
initiated go at it calmly and take in
all the games; the amateurs moan franti-
cally and stay at home.
In the older days of sport the acid test
was ones ability to attend successfully
championship heavyweight bout or a world
series. But the professional sporting pro-
moters have so far solved the housing prob
lem that the past year has witnessed the
unusual spectacle of vacant seats at the
Dempsey Carpenter fight and still more
cant seats during the Giant Yank civil war
at the Polo Grounds. Football alone remains
the unsolved acrostic.
So for those who have some notion of at
tending the Princeton-Yal football struggle
at New Haven on November IL, or the Har
vard-P Princeton fracas in Palmer Stadium a
week earlier, or the Cornell Penn affair on
Thanksgiving Day, or anyone of the bigger

Cardinal Gibbons
Condition Is Reported
To Be Much Improved

Baltimore, Jan. 2.-Cardinal Glib
bons' condition was so improved to-
day that his physicians were en-
couraged, and should the improve
ment continue, they say, they will
tomorrow consider the advisability
Of removing him to his home. He
was visiting his friend, Robert T.
Shriver at Union Mills when
stricken.
The cardinals physicians say he
is not suffering from any organic
trouble, but simply the weakening
effects of his advanced age, sc years.
He has always been a remarkably
healthy man, although not of robust
build. His heart action has been
weaker the past week. but even that
was stronger today. There has been
no recurrence of the alarming sink
ing spells for two days.
In the cathedral and all churches
in the archdiocese, special prayers
were offered for his recovery.
