Want to Know Recruits Who
Are Sitting on Bench.

request that all diamond athletes wear
numbers on the backs of their uni

President Veeck Of the Cubs by Cub
rooter who resides in Indiana Harbor,
writes l. E. Sanborn in Chicago Trib-
une
The Cub executive replied that the
electrical scoreboard system of flashing
the numbers Of the players as they
came to bat did away with the neces-
sity of labelling them by attaching the
numbers to their uniforms; but the In
diana fan came back with the argu-
titles only the players in action, while
the fan wants to know the rest of the
athletes, including the recruits who
are hived in the coop most of the time
except during the preliminary practice
or an emergency.
AS to the identity of recruits and
noncOmbatants, the great majority of
rooters are not interested. Only the
thirty-third degree fan wants to know
the future greats. The roOters of less
degree are satisfied to know the stars.
And it would seem like q lowering
of the dignity of players like Babe
Ruth, or Grover Alexander, or Ray
Schalk, or Bill Killifer, or Ty Cobb, OF
Eddie Collins, to ask them to weal
numbers on their backs. 1t might be

a finish that made Snapper Garrison
and Johnny LOTUS immortal.
They ''batted" their mounts home.
Ensor's method of finish is entirely
different He uses the whip when he
deems it necessary, but he is of the
opinion that a clip or two of the lash
and a strong hand ride produce as
good results That is the reason his
finishes are not so spectacular. He
rides with his horse and his move
ments in the saddle are in perfect ac-
cord with his mount.
He studies the past performances,
watches the morning trials and closely
scrutinizes all of the thOroughbredS for
defects. This helps him great deal,
for in a race he knows the horses to-
fear and those not TO fear.

SHEKEL CAMPAIGN
CLOSING.

The local campaign for the

end Sunday, July II. The
shekel which now sells for one
dollar is intended to defray the
expenses of the Zionist Organiza-
ton. The Shekel is self-im-
posed tax, which signifies that
the purchaser is in sympathy. with
the, Basic Rpgrarn ans. wit gsh-
erale'Zionfst Inspirations. No One
can pay for more than one Shekel,
hence members of a Zionist dis
trict, whose dues already include
the Shekel do not need to pur-
chase any. In addition to help
ing defray the expenses of the
Zionist Organization, the Shekel
payer has the privilege of voting
for a delegate to the Zionist con-
gress.' This year the Zionist
Congress will be held at Carls-
bad, and in many sections the
Shekel campaign is proceeding at
a lively pace, in the effort to Sc
cure as many shekel payers as
possible, so that maximum num-
Der of delegates can be sent. 1t
requires one thousand shekel pay
ers to elect one delegate.
