infielder. Billy Southworth and Fred
Nicholson, outfielders.
The three men are experienced play
ers. Southworth being rated as one OF
the best outfielders In the BUSINESS. All
are good hitters, the outfielders espe-
cially. Barbara did not show his best
form during the last season, due to ILL
ness and accidents.
Maranvile will just about make the
Pirates contender for the pennant. and
hia coming may mean that Gibson has
decided to send Whitfield back to out
field duty. teaming him with Carey and
Bigbee. This will give the Pirates Just
as good a combination as the one with
Southworth in the lineup.
Nicholson came to the Pirates from
the Detroit Americans In 1919 by the
waiver route. Last season he played in
right and centre fields, finishing with a
battinE average or .5b1. he was ruIl-
nerup to Rogers Hornsby. leading bats
man of the National League in 1920.
Southworth, who came here several
years ago from the Birmingham club of
the Southern Association, played right
field and batted 1882 last year.
Barbara joined the Pirates in 1919,
coming from the Jersey City club of the
international League. He suffered a
broken jaw during spring practice and
was out OF the game during half of last
season. His batting average for fifty
seven games was .270. Although a
shortstop, Barbara has frequently been
used at second and third bases.

of the Boston Nationals, to the Pitts
burg club for three players was an
nounced by Manager Fred Mitchell of

the distance in 25 minutes 80 seconds,

eighth position.
First prize in the race was won by

The majority of motorists are sat-

Bachelor Is Naturally Wondering II
That Is How the Ladies Really

A Terre Haute bachelor stopped at
a friends house the other night to
get him to accompany him to COM
munity meeting. The friend was a
much married" man and his spouse
did not wish him to go to the lecture.
So she told her husband so.
They were in the next room and her
husband was afraid the bachelor
might hear her and he did not desire
for the other man to think that he
was so henpecked. SO he raised
warning hand at his wife. But she
continued in a voice louder than ever.
II don't care if he does hear. If there's
anything that makes me tired it is
some old bachelor going around clut-

he wants to know now is whether or
not all women regard him in the same
light-Indianapoli News.

A serious inconvenience is caused
in Australia by the lack of spring

which the rain is caught.
Naturally, toward the breaking up

precious.
A judge, on circuit, arriving at a
bush shanty, asked for bath. Such
a luxury was naturally refused, as
there was only little water left at
the bottom of the tank reserved for
drinking purposes, says the author of

could not be found, the landlord went
to call him; whereupOn a muffled
