That leaves only Washington to be
accounted for. Bush is out because
Griffith found fault with his strategy
Bush seemed to put on a good finish
with Washington, but in midseason-
when things can go wrong If they
ever do. and when a team that be-
comes stagnant is likely never to re-
cover. Washington did not meet the
expectations of its owners. Who
Washington will hit upon is prob
lematical. Chance had been talked
of for the job. but his signing at Chi
cago ends that.
In Chicago the former first base
man and manager of the Cubs is
much more at home than in any other
city in which he might have found
a lodging place this year. And he
has quite a team with which to begin.
1t could stand a better first base
or two. The pitchers are little too
fighty for the most part. and Chance
will need all the skill he. once pos
seSsed as a catcher TO get four win
ners out of the list.
CSmikkey Plays Cards Well.
AS a popular move Comiskey played
his cards well in bringing Chance
back to Chicago. There is not any
doubt that the old manager OF the
Cubs has had a following in the city
from the days of his success with ths
team which was left to him by Frank
Selee. The modern generation has
forgotten Selees greatness. but
Chance still lives.
No dearth of fans will be found in
the National League ground. because
it has its own clientele. but Comis-
key will have cemented the friend
ships that always have existed be-
tween him and the south side.

s. HODKINSON GETS
BACK CIVIL WAR DRUM
Veteran Will Use Recovered
Treasure in Coming May
80 Parade.

Samuel Hodkinson. so years old,
who lives at Grantwood, appeared in
Magistrates court in New York last
week to recover an old battle SCARED
drum that he carried at the head of
the Sixty-second Ohio Volunteer In
fantry during the Civil War.
Magistrate William A. Sweetser in
the West Side court ordered the drum
returned to it's rightful owner by Ed
ward Kessler, of 534 West Forty
eighth street Manhattan, who bor-
rowed it last year for a Memorial Day
parade.
The court room. slipped back into
an atmosphere of sixty years ago
when Mr.. Hodkinson told about his
career, which began as a drummer
and ended when he was discharged as
lieutenant in January, 1865. He
showed his discharge papers and war
mementos to corroborate his state
ments. A group of Civil War veter-
ans heard his narrative before the
magistrate.
The drum had been carried through
the Vicksburg and Gettysburg cam
paigns, at the head of the Sixty-sec-
Grant. When the war was over it
rested with Mr. Hodkinson. The
drum held a place of honor in the
Hodkinson home in GrantWood,
which the veteran had selected for
its name, and the fact that it lay di-
rectly opposite Grants Tomb.
Mr.. Hodkinson had been asked to
let the drum be used in the parade OF
Baer Post, Sons of Veterans, on May
30, 1922, by William eSharrock, COM
mander of the post, Mr.. Hodkinson
said, but when he demanded it's re-
turn he always had been met with ex.
cuses by Mr.. kessler, who had played
it for the parade. Mr.. Hodkinson
wants the drum to play in the parade
which will be given this year By
Clablin Post, c. A R., of which he is
a member.

The fact that warm weather has

The new theatre being erected by

Palisade Junction is making rapl1
strides. James Mulhearn in charge Ct

completed the foundation and the
work is being rushed so that the the
atre will be completed not later than
October l of this year Announce
ment is made by e. Thornton Kelly.
president of the Palisade Theatre
Corp, that three hundred men and
women of Bergen county are to be
entertained every week absolutely
free in the new theatre now being
erected.
There is really very little to ex-
plain about the pIan," Mr.. Kelly said.
MY company has introduced a plan to
provide three hundred representative
men and women of Bergen county with
free entertainment. The people already
know about the theatre we are build
ing. The programme of the house
will consist of vaudeville and motion
pictures, each of the highest type
available.
Membership in the Palisade Thea
tre Corp. will be limited to three hun.
dred residents of good standing OF
Bergen county. These members will be
entitled to free admission once or twice
weekly. Seats will be reserved nightly
for the members so that even when
standing room is at premium they
will be assured of seats. In addition
to the entertainment features OF this
unique membership plan, members
will also participate in the profits de-
rived from the theatre and the rem
tails from stores and offices, which the
theatre will contain
THE most important phase of this
membership plan is to have the whole
hearted good will of three hudred rep
resentative families living in Bergen
county"
The Palisade Theatre Corp. is pre-
pairing to issue a booklet that will
give the plan in detail This booklet
will be available to all who make
request for it at the main office of
the company

of Palisade, who is the treasurer OF
the company when interviewed today
