Rang Up Campaign Drawing
70 End With Real Battle for
the Chevrolet, Edison

When yOt1 sat in the grandstand at

watched the races you were thrilled
when the nags came down the home
stretch neck and neck and rushed
well-bunched across the finishing
hne So close were they that it Of

Today the runners in the Medina

tinel racers will sweep across the
time limit set for this race and then
the judges will decide "who won"
And it is truly remarkable race;
starting the first week Of August it
began slowly, but today the handful
of never-say-die runners have set a
terrific pace, a pace leading to some
glorious victories, or at least an hon
orable defeat.
Not the least marvellous is the way
some erst-while tail-enders have late

Some Of the "cock-sure' ones are
truly worried and today it is "any-

COAST LEAGUE STARS
IN REMNANT BATTLE
Mitchell and Johnson Regarded
as Finished Players.
Must Travel in High to Maintain Rep.
utation of a League Which Sent
Many Crack lnfieIders to
Major League Clubs.

In spite of the fact that the White
Sox scandal threw two former Coast
league shortstops into the discard, the
infielders of that position who learned
their art on Coast league diamonds
are going TO play big parts in the
American and National league pennant
races.
Two more shortstops are being con-
tributed by the Coast to the majors
this year.
They are Johnny Mitchell, the Yer
non Tigers intielder, who was the key
stone on defense for Vernon the
past three years, and Ernie Johnson,
who piloted the Salt Lake Bees last
season.
Neither player comes within the
terms of youngster. Johnson was with
the Browns, and before that was a
member of the Feds. He jumped Los
Angeles to join the Feds and it was
in Los Angeles he really learned TO
play the sport.
The pair going to the majors are re-
SoiNOu ptlil
They will have to travel in high to
uphold the reputation of a league
which sent such star shortstops as Hol-
locher, Terry, Bancroft, Peckinpaugh,
Olson, Ward, Risberg and Weaver to
the big show.
Terry was with Pittsburgh year be-
fore last and Barney Dreyfuss let him
go for the waiver price, The Cubs
grabbed him to play second, but when
Hollocher was out of the game the
former Angel was used at short.
Hollocher is 300 hitter in the
majors and covers world of terri
tory. Dave Bancroft at various times
has been touted as the best shortstop
in the National league. Another sex
Portland man who plays short, or any
other place he is needed, is Ivan Oh
son.

MOVIE. ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has lovely
hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact, many are leading ladies just be-
cause of their attractive looks. Inquiry
among them discloses the fact that
they bring out all the natural beauty
of their hair by careful shampooing,
not with any soap or makeshift, but
with a simple mixture by putting a
teaspoonful Of canthrox (which they
get from the druggist) in a cup OF
hot water and applying this instead
of soap. This full cup of shampoo
liquid is enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead of just the
top of the head. After its use, the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color.
Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. The
hair is so fluffy that it looks much
heavier than it is; its luster and soft
ness are delightful. Send &c to cover

MANAGER is ASSET TO BOXER
When Fighter Breaks With Lifelong
Director He Is Usually Headed
for Scrap Heap.

Boxers get nowhere without mana
gers. When fighter splits with his
lifelong manager he usually is headed
for the scrap heap. Young Corbett
pulled away from Johnny Corbett aft
er being made a champion. That ended
his fighting triumphs.
Johnny Kilbane parted ways with
Jimmy Dunn. Kilbane has made little
money since. On the other hand,
Benny Leonard and his manager, Billy
Gibson, have been pals since Benny
was a kid. They're on top.
Lew Tender and his boss, Phil
Glassman, sold newspapers on the
same corner before they became sue
cessful as fighter and manager. Dan
Morgan took Jack Britton after he had
wasted seven years of his ring career
and rejuvenated him. Jack Kearns
has done much for Dempsey.
A manager is not necessary evil
but much-needed asset to any fight
er. The manager is the man behind
