RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH
Spent $1,200,000 for Relief of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions Of acute
distress in five famine stricken prov
inces of Northern China where mil
lions of persons were affe cted by an
unprecedented shortage of food. the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than $1,200,000,
81 100000 of which was contributed d.
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups IN
terested in the welfare of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible 1t is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross Is
asking continued support by tho Amer
lean people by universal renewal of
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November II to "a.
The method of relief employed by
the American Red Cross in it's opera
lions in China was particularly effec-
tive, for in addition to saving hundreds
of thousands of lives it provided China
with more than 900 miles Of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-
vent recurrence of famine. At one
time the Red Cross employed $4,000
Chinese workmen, paying them in food
for themselves and dependents, this
food being brought in from Manchuria
and else where.

Terry, who ran second in fielding, VIII be at the keystone sack again, while Hol- locher will operate at short Holly had an operation last midseason and played no. more ball that year, but he has come back stronger than ever, and when right is just about the class of the National league at short.
 charley Deal is looked upon as the regular third baseman. He was the lead ing fielder last year Don Brown. a youngster from Springfield Mo, is quite handy at the hot corner. He fields well and throws hard and will bear watching. Lack of experience is his only handicap.
 KeIIeher to Be Retained
 Hoke Warner, who had trial with Pittsburgh, comes to the Cubs via Kan sas City. and looks the part of an infield- CT. He rested last season and 90 has been, late in attaining condition.
 Johnny Kelleher. last year manager of the St. Joseph, Mo, club is certain to be retained as utility infelder. He is fast and steady.
 Bill Marriott who reported last fall. is out because of an appendicitis operation. Harold Leathers. who joined up last au- turnn Is an improved athlete who prob ably will come back to the majors after another year in the minors. He Is q shortstop.
 MaiseI Is q Real Find
 George Maisel has added strength to the outfie'al He knows how to play ball, can field and throw and run the bases. Frank Chance who lives out here, says of him:
 He is a ball player and believe he can hit enough in the National league to be very xaluable"
 Evers has been using FriberE and Twombly in center, neither of whom is finished fielder. Barber may draw the assignment later Max Flaek is going along in right field the same as always, He Is steady as a clock and win bat at least 2se. John Stangelo, Boston semi-pro, is small and fast and lacking | in experience. The Cubs need at least one more good fielder.
 No Change in catchers
 There Is no change behind the bat. Bill Killifer will do the bulk of the work. with Bob o.Farrel. second string man and Tom Daily operating mostly as pinch hitter. Everett Comes also is witf the club and if Evers keeps four catch CTS the last named will be the king of the bullpen. oFarrell's chance to work last season resulted In vast improvement and he is one of the coming backstcps of the game. s
