Coiffure Much Dressed Up for Evening

HHERE Is a marked difference now
n between the hairdresslngs for day
- and evening. Coiffures that go
with dance frocks. or thea,er or din
ner costumes must be elaborate. This
does not mean elaborate arrangement
OF the tresses themselves. but elabor-
ate decoration thereof Sparkling
combs and brocaded silk turbans,
wound IN Oriental fashion over the
hair are not suitable for afternoon
occasions; but they are very much the
thing for the evening. Wreaths OF
silver or gold leaves. bound around
the head and worn low on the fore
head are very smart and they look
particularly we'll on youthful women.
There are also feathers. tassels,
punches OF grapes that droop from
bandeaux, sometimes at one side,
sometimes at both sides OF the head.

he is one of the really big men on
of avoirdupois. well distributed over

twenty-eight years old, started out
in the New York State League and
,, his professional experience has been
confined to that circuit and the
season with the Cleveland Indians.
That was three years ago when, used
almost exclusively for relief pur-
poses, he was credited with winning
three games and losing two in the
twenty-five contests he participated
in. His earned run average was 2.s4
and he compiled a batting percentage
OF 1854, being topped only by Eddie

Detroit and Joe Harris, his team

pitchers who had worked in any

games. Phillips is being depended
.. upon to render valuable assistance to

Another in the same category is
Woodward. the New Havenite, who
protests his name is not Franklin
Lafayette, but the more prosaic
Frank Russell. Woodward is not in

his base ball age, twenty-seven, is also
his real age, spent parts Of three sea-
sons with big league clubs before
joining the Nationals last fall.
He went to st. Petersburg with the
Phillies in 1913 and to Charlotte with
them again in 1919, being traded in
midseason to the st. Louis Cardinals.
In 1920 Branch Hickey started him

and New Haven. He was with the
