works out this theme against the

other Of the roles that opportunity
offers. Washing the breakfast dish

In her own mind, captivating and

steps outside herself. so to speak, to
see something between madonna
and saint going by. Accepting

but rather herself. the softly con-

passioned wooing. Thus the story
runs along the joys. and the sorrows,
too, that this "pocketful of poses"
brings to really lovable girl who
projects herself as the star in per-
petual drama of everyday doings.
Clever and attractive. this girl.

Tigers Que Splendid Princeton Gridders Shouting to Ty, Thinks Obey Roper's Orders,
 Buffoon of Baseball and Victory Follows

PRINCETON. N. J.. Jan. s,-At Princeton, football is taken seriously especially by Bill Roper, coach of the Tiger eleven.
 One of Roper,s pet hobbies is that a player should never fall on loose ball. but should pick it up and run with 1t. His players take him serl- ously in that, and tumble Is never simply recovered by Princeton, but is always returned. sometimes to a touchdown and a victory. Princeton beat Harvard and Chicago by grab bing a loose ball and running with it..
 Painted on a sign at the Princeton clubhouse is the slogan, An Inter- ferer Never Looks Back" another of Roper's pet hobbies. Day by day, as the rlayers file to and from prac ttee this sign stares them in the face.
 rather singular fact is that fail ure to observe this rule resulted in victory for Princeton and a defeat for Harvard, the offending team

Aces of Speedway Form Own Union

NEW YORK. Jan. 3.-Another "union" has appeared in the ranks of sportdom. It is known as the "As sociation of Automobile Aces" and its members are among the greatest automobile race drivers in the world. A charter has been applied for, and officers will be elected at the first meeting of the organization, to De held at the Motor Show in Madison Square Garden next week.
 A novel angle of the new associa- ton is that 1t is the first organiza- ton to be formed by mail. The prom inent drivers are at present scattered all over the country. and as a pro- tective body for the drivers has been under discussion for months 1t was necessary to enlist the members by mail to effect a semblance of an or ganization before the motor show Is held in the garden.
 Acceptances to join the associa- ton have been received from Tommy Milton, speed king of the last three years; Jimmy Murphy. winner of the French grand prix; Ralph de Palma. former champion and record holder; Ira Vail of Brooklyn, and a dozen others.
 It is the plan of the association to appoint high commissioner for au- tomobile racing, with power to set tie all disputes.

 Target and Trap Shooting
 For one thing we intend to in stall a rifle range and trap shooting field. During the summer, gunning is as popular sport as fishing, and with no live game to shoot, mem. bers can turn to the next best thing target and trap shooting. We expect to have modern range and trap in- stalled by next summer.
 Then we expect to improve the bathing beach by addition of diving boards, chutes and other parapher- nalia that goes to make pool suc- cess.
 To Clear Water Front
 "Stumps, snags ard rubbage along the water front facing the cot tages will be removed, and the gen eral appearance of the camp made more attractive.
 By the addition of a garden. in which we can raise our own produce we expect to better eating conditions at the camp. by making 1t possible for the chefs to serve fresh vege- tables daily.

Club Owners Vote on Benton Case--Dreyfuss Is Opposed to Return

PITTSBURG. Jan. 3.-Rube Ben tons fate, IS the Cincinnati Reds make frantic efforts to reclaim the former major league pitcher from the minors. hangs on the decision Of seven National league club owners.
 Rube Benton may or may not be allowed to return to the big leagues. Garry Hermann of the Cincinnati club has requested tine National league moguls to vote on the matter. Only seven can vote, as Charlie Eb- betts is in Europe
 For Barney Dreyfuss' part, Rube Benton can stay in the minors, for when interview on the subject Bar Eey said:
 T am perfectly familiar with every detail of the Benton case. know the complete history of it. l do not consider him a desirable man for major league baseball, and have voted against our league readmitting him. That is my opinion. and l do not care to go into details"
 Dreyfuss would not discuss the case at all, except to state that Ben ton could stay in the minors, so far as he is concerned, or words to that effect.

DETROIT, Mich. Jan. 3.-(Special.l Nick 9ltrock. buffoon of baseball, has word or two to say regarding the prowess of ny Cobb. Georgia Peach" of the diamond game. Nick thinks the Tigers will be hard to stop in 1923. and gives Ty credit for the for midabiIity of the Bengals.
 Nick's long association with base ball and the American league quail f1es him for some serious comment on the coming race. and his observation carries considerable weight.
 T want to congratulate Cobb for the wonderful showing he has already made. with the Tigers" Altrock said. His work as a manager last season showed he has the stuff. He brought Detroit from the second division to third place-a team. mind you. that at the training camp looked like a candidate for seventh or eighth place.
 Cobb did this. too. while encoun- tering serious handicaps in the way of injuries to several of his star play CTS. Harry Heilman was out the last tive months, which made the Tigers fight for third place even harder. And Ty did not get quite the effective pitching his staff is capable of.
 Any manager can deliver when things are breaking his way, but it is the fellow who can make his club come through in spite of bad breaks who gets there. That's the kind or a leader Cobb iB.
 "The Tigers play smart ball now. and the longer Cobb leads them the smarter they will be. Cobb has just what he needs tC work with-young fellows"

 The Germans and Austrians de- clared themselves ready to compete against any of the entente nations but England and France refused. The Belgians took the same position, but the Italians expressed willingness to meet any one eligible to compete In Sweden it is considered noteworthy that the United States is willing to enter the games internationally.
