FASHION SHOW
BIG SUCCESS

A most successful fashion show
was staged yesterday in the ready
to wear department of the Varney
company. Music was furnished by
Mrs. Reasonover who used a Starr
grand piano, and by Bob Stevens on
Conn saxophone, both from the
store S music department.
Customes depicting the latest
modes in sportwear, afternoon
frocks, evening dresses, coats and
street wear, with the accompanying
millinery, shoes and accessories
were worn by Mrs. Ray Martin, Miss
Gracia Scott, Mrs. Sam t. Griffin
and Mrs. II. L. Slaughter, under
the direction of Mrs. S. O. Lingo.
Several membeys of the sales force
attired in attractive AFTERNOON
dresses which they had purchased
from the new stock attracted much
favorable comment.
A large number of women gather
ed to see the show and learn the
latest fancies of Dame Fashion.
Roscoe Gould, manager of the
local store, announces that he is
planning to stage a similar perfor-
nance in the big show windows of
the store next Tuesday evening.

stopped every chance the Yankees
had to win the game. Stengel s
home run in the ninth inning was
the decisive punch that caused the
Yanks to take the count, but it
was George Kelly's miraculous
stop Of Ruth s sure double in the
seventh and his phenomenal throw
to the plate, cutting off Dugan,
that stopped winning rally by
the Yanks.
No play in any series or any
game could compare with the bril-
Lance, quick thinking and spon-
taneous action provided by Kelly
not even the sensational Rawlings
Kelly and Grog double play that
made the last out in the 1921
series.
The Giants Ill figure that they
are "in' now.
"The victory will be worth more
than if we had beaten them Is to
o. one of the Giants players said
today. "If hey had gone down in
one-sided game they would have
thought that fine pi \'hing stop
ped them, that they had all the bad
breaks or that they were in q
slump
Want Pennock Eliminated
The Giant players feel that they
would take the series in straight
games if they Tad Herb Pennock
out Of the way in the opener. The
champions do not attempt to deny
that they regard the left handed
former Boston pitcher very serious
ly.
Pennoek, no doubt will pitch to-
DAY for the Yankees and it is al
most certain that Art Nehf the
Giant southpaw will oppose him.
Nehf was ready to go yesterday
and he was peeved that he wasn't
selected.
For spectacular playing yester-
day, Stengel and Kelly held the
limelight, but Frank Friseh, that
brilliant Fordbam star, had as
much to do with the victory as
any one. He made two phenomenal
plays that cut off runs and he was
all over the field.
The official paid attendance was
55,307, which made a new series
record, and the actual attendance
probably was $4,000. The receipts
vhIcn also esta ablIshed q new record,
were $1s1,912, which was divided
as follows: Advisory council $G7,-
2S6.S0; each club s share $30,925.O5; ;
players share $92,775.12.
1t was a coincidence that Stcngel
got his homer OFF Bush, one of his
best friends. Stengel and Bush
made the trip to Japan last winter
and were rOommatcs.

NO EXCUSE FOR
LOSING GAME IS
EXPERTS VIEW
Slow Thinking, Stupid
Base Runs, Over-Dar-
ing Lost Game
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.
United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, October 11.--Off
on the wrong foot again, the New
York Yankees were facing the pro-
spect of having some unpleasant
bits of 1921 and 1922 history re-
peat themselves as they prepared
for the second game of the world S
series today with the Giants.
Down one on the National league
champions, outplayed and >out-
thought in game they should
have won at least six times, the
plight of the Yankees was painful.
After yesterdays exhibition of
how they cannot play ball, the Yam
KEGS must have felt this morning
like the weather-cloudy, murky,
gloomy and sour.
Commissioner Lands said this
morning that he had received a
report that the field was in good
condition and that the teams would
play this afternoon, if threatened
rain held off.
4 One wise crack was made after
the game that no team in the
world could have lost {. game like
the opening conflict but the Yam
KEGS. No other major league team
of first division class could have
acted. so mentally sluggish and so
mechanically uncertain.
Ruth tripled i'll the fifth with one
out; Schang doubled i'll the sixth
with two out; Dugan tripled in the
seven with one out, and Pipp sing
led in the eighth with one out
and the Yanks did not score.
Stupid Dase Runs
Stupid base running by Witt and
Pipp and the over-daring of Babe
Ruth in trying, as Ruth always tries
to win, cost the Yanks the game.
Jimmy 'Connell, the $4,000
California beauty, remarked quiet
ly after the game: ''The best way
to beat the Yankees is to let them
on base, because they don t know
what to do when they get there. y
The mental alertness and the
mechanical perfection of the Giants

Well, gayest laughter and joy will ring once more in the walls of the old Phoenix Club.
 For the building committee has decided to "make it all over again" eThose of us who remember lovely dances, feasts for the gods, friendships so fine, will get thrill of pleasure from th;s.
 Pretty soon, the clubs old-time delights will be the city's once more.
 Every since the structure was burned during the unusually cold and frosty weather, there have been piles of folks unhappy.
 Bachelors, particularly, have been lost and sorter wandering around.
 ssNo place to loaf" they vail. ''If this keeps up, we're afraid we'll be driven to matrimony. Sleet is no respector of the comforts of a poor unmarried man. E-e are going to propose that after this a con- mittee of bachelors be appointed to watch over an overheated furnace and teach it how to behave, itself" :" > Signs of Business
 It won't be more than 10 days, Leo Kayser said thIs week, before trucks will be drawing up to the place with sand, cement and build ing material to start the house of solid comfort and play again.
 Prettier-Yes-Than Before
 Now that the opportunity pre- sents itself, the club will be made more beautiful than it previously was.
 The general scheme of arrange ments is to be somewhat changed. Upstairs, while the reading room and lounge idea will still prevail, additional comfort will be stressed in a general remodeling.
 The lower floor will again con- tain the library, and three reception rooms, arranged very much the same as formerly.
 The ballroom will also be left as it is.

HERE WE WHISK AWAY
 TO THE NIXON HOMEl

At the Charles Nixons-well, you'll most always find everybody at home, and from the radio to the piano, friends come and take pos session. Although the Nixons have a big house, they have been able to acquire the effect of coziness, which is worth cool million in satisfaction to the heart.
 Mrs. Nixon is a clever woman, with wonderful son who, one day, it is anticipated, will make his mark in the world as violinist. He is now in New York city studying with the great Spiering, and has been lately heard in that city in numer- ous concerts. He is David Nixon. They have one other younger son, Charles, Jr.
 Can't Be Beaten
 Mrs. Nixon has the biggest heart and the most generous personality you'll discover in lengthy auto mobile tour anywhere, She can practically do anything, from plan- ming the eats for card party to ap- bearing on the stage In the role of accompanist and singer. She has glorious mass or waite fair-al- though she is very young-and she's the sort of person who, when the crowd wants anyrn:ng, it picks on Edith to put the plans across. 1 have never seen her fail, and every body who knows her longer than l have says she never does.
 MT. Nixon is always the delight full host. He is resident manager for big Bessemer foundry-and the only fault his friends ever find with him is that he thinks too much of the foundry, and will go gadding right off to it and leave any party
 Don't fancy I couidy ever forget another member of this merry group-Mrs. West, who is Mrs. Nixon's mother. What would the crowds do without her nimble fin gers and her capacity for really truly fortune telling! By the hour, maidens and men, married folks and old, sit figuratively, and hum- bly,, at her feet, and hear the mys- teries of a future hour.
 Won't Tell
 And what she sees-would she | tell the crowds? An no! She would not be so cruel. She speaks to you alone-and you are charmed with what you hear. And you frame your days so that, the coming delights or disappointmnets shall find you all receptive to fulfillment. ] How the guests coax Mrs. West

LOT OF BIG BUGS AND
 POINSETTIAS AT FIT. MYERS

Heaps of folks are getting back from Florida.
 Latest among them is Mrs. Bert Ingram.
 She's been to Tampa, St. Peters, burg, Jacksonville and Fort Myers.
 MT. and Mrs. Glen Ireland, of Birmingham, were in Florida at the same time, as well as Judge and Mrs. R. B. Watts, of this city, Mrs. Watts formerly having been Lila Mccormack.
 The Watts are entertaining a great deal at their Fort Myers winter home, and having a good time with guests from Atlanta. Usually MT. and Mrs. Fred Jack son and Dr. and Mrs. Gec-ge Stuart go for a visit each season, but this year they are not making the trip, Mrs. Ingram said.
 While away she was the guest of her mother, Mrs. F. l.. Green, who lives in Fort Myers.
 Selling the Everglades
 "Land amounting to 500,000 acres," sail Mrs. Ingram, ''has been bought by the oAlliers-of Golfers magazine-and they a~e building roads in the Everglades, having already spent two million dollars in this work. They are reselling the property in acreage"
 "The thing which struck me most was the size of the poinsettia leaves. They are as large as the average size palmetto fan, while the bushes grow 20 or 30 feet highw
 "It was thrilling to pick oranges and grapefruit from the actual trees.
 "The tourists remind you of al- ligators-sitting out and summing themselves amidst the delicious breezes. They make you sure they're taking care of themselves.
 Municipal bands are playing in the parks, and part of the time while l was there, it was 90 in the shade.
 "Those Northerners are crazy about Southern girls, and I was told that Florida is about as good place to land a husband these days as the old-time west used to be. However, Pm not trying to start an influx down there.
 ''Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and MT. Adding-Machine Bur roughs-I can't remember his initials-were at Fort Myers. All of them have cottages there."
 MT. Ingram joined Mrs. Ingram for part of her trip away.
