JOE HARRIS, WITH BOSTON RED
SOXS HERE SATURDAY

Just twenty-eight years ago Hugh
Duffy, manager of the Boston Red
Sox, set an all-time record by hit
ting for .42S during a championship
season, and he, if any one, ought to
know a great hitter when he watch
es a man work. Hugh has secured
many ball players during his career
as a Major and Minor League mana
ger, but it has been a long time
since he has been enthusiastic over
hitter as he now is over Joe Har-
ris, the former Cleveland player,
who recently was re-instated to the
ranks of major league ball.
Two years ago, after serving in
the war, Harris smashed the ball out
for a percentage of .375 for the
season, playing great ball when used
at first base. Being natural ball
player and having played in the out
field he will be groomed as the Red
Sox regular left garden keeper this
year and he has been making good
with a vengeance.
Harris was with Chattanooga some
years ago and several big league
teams were after him, and the New
York Yankees, who will be without
Ruth and Muesel for a time this sea-
son, were much upset when the Red
Sox beat them to a deal with Cleve-
land. In fact, the New Workers
never have quite forgiven them
selves for letting. Harris get away
from them eight years ago.
Fans who like to watch straight
from the shoulder hitting, and clean
straight stepping into the ball, will
get fullest enjoyment when they see
Harris in action. Duffy stamps him
as a great hitter with greatest pos
sibilities for hard driving and plac-
ing.

bilee in which she was riding. She died
at Columbus hospital from the cuts
sustained in the accident about ? O'Clock
Saturday morning.
The girl was riding with her brother,
Everett, who was driving the car. They
were driving west on Fourth avenue
north without headlights when the car
crashed into an automobile belonging
to Ray Moon, parked at 320S Fourth

OPENING UP
AMERICAN BANK
BY SEPTEMBER !
Jones Heads New Committee
in Charge, Urges All
to Sign Plan.

With a view to reopenlng the Amer
lean Bank & Trust company by Sep
TENDER if possible. a committee com
posed wholly Of depositors has taken
over the work of reorganizlng that
concern, it was announced Saturday by
Hugh NJ. Jones, chairman of the com
mittee. Until now, the work has been
in the hands of a depositors' commit
tee, but the entire matter will be IN
the charge of the new committee in
the future.
Meeting With Success
I'VE have met with excellent success
since we took over the work said
Jones Saturday evening, land | think
it entirely consistent to say that pros
poets for %reopening the bank now are
brighter than ever before. The first
day we had the matter in charge nine
signatures were procured from people
who had declined to sign up before and
we are offered a good deal of encour-
agement as we go along. Every de-
positOr who has not signed the re-
organization agreement will be inter-
viewed personally by the committee,
anly the only thing that can prevent
the banks reopening will be the failure
of a few to sign, for it is absolutely
hVtNSsul thoI ''Nhr "NPo1't' NSN
his signature.
I'm order that the bank may safely
be opened. it is necessary that the de
p~ositors sign extension agreements
Every depOsitor is asked to sign re-
CARELESS of the amount Of his or her
account. whether. it be 80 cents of
$1,000. Special agreements with any
of the ~depositors are out of the ques-
ton.
Require All to Sign
THE banking department Of the
state has required that the stockholders
recapitalize the bank by subscribing
100 per sent of their stock.
st is very necessary that a reorgan-
ization be effected as soon as possible
and the aim of the committee is to have
every depositor signed up by Septem-
Der 1. A large majority Of the deposit
tors have already signed. The office
of the chairman is maintained at 121
Central avenue"
