Cousin Jane Knew.

Cousin Jane, Of the Shortridge high
school physiology class, went to the
country to visit her Uncle Bob for a
few days. Uncle Bob took her out to
look at the chickens. We've got lot
of them,'' he confided, but we get
mighty few eggs. Your Aunt Sue feeds
them too much, but I don't know how
to tell her what she's doing without
hurting her feelings. She's so touchy,
you know"
Cousin Jane went into .he house.
A little later she drew Aunt Sue into
a conversation about the hens. 81 be-
lieve, Aunt Sue, you'd get better work
from those hens if you would diet
them," she finally blurted out her ad-
vice.-Indianapolis News.

Appetite Not Quite Gone.

Mary had reached the stage of sa-
tiety where she steadfastly refused all
offers of "a little more turkey "a
bit more dressing or mashed potato" "
or another piece Of bread" Nothing
apparently could tempt her to eat an
other mouthful. Finally. however, the
nuts, raisins and candies were passed.
"Yes, will have some." said Mary.
and then, apparently thinking her con-
duct needed some explanation, she
added: II can still eat little things !"

Alamo-Peck Indians Won
dering Who This Pitch

~And the batteries for Kennedy will

That's what the announcer at
Schwab Field will yell next Sun
day afternoon, whereupon the Alamo
Peck Indian baseball team and the
fans will gaze at a pitcher that no
body SENS to know a thing about
right now.
The Indians were notified by the
Kennedy management Friday that
Green would pitch.
"Who," murmured George Schwab
sis this guy, Green?"
No answer.
So the Indians probably will face
Mr.. Green without any knowledge OF
whether he's southpaw or a right
handler, a curve ball artist or a steel
armed gentleman.
The other end of the battery, Mar
tin, is well known here, since he has
caught many a fine game on local
lots. mostly for the Kennedy nine.
Sundays battle, starting at 3
o'clock. will be the first of three
games to be played by Kennedy against
the Indians in San Antonio this sum-
mer.
Schwab will sic Schraub on the
Kennedy White Sox first and will wind

One-armed Umpire to
Call Decisions When
Bears Go Into Action

Texas League fans at Houston
will have the unusual-perhaps ex-
clusiye-experience of seeing an
umpire with only one arm in action
when the San Antonio Bears open
the season there next Wednesday.
The umpire assignments for the
opening games, announced Thurs
day night by President Doak Rot-
erts of the league, calls for Jack
O'Hearn and Henry Tanning as
arbiters at Houston. Tanning has
but one arm. He umpired last
year in the Texas-O klaho = a League
and did so well, despite his handi-
cap. that Roberts grabbed him for
this season.
Most umpires find it necessary
to use two arms in indicating balls
and strikes back of the plate. Fan
ming is said to overcome the loss
of one arm with an unusually Wig
orous voice that carries to all cor
ners of the ball park.

1922 and it is likely to be better. The
infield shows occasional evidences of
the progress of the years but it doesn't
show that it will break down. The out
field is a little better than it was in
1922.
Pittsburg next to New York seems
to be the best club in the league. 1t is
very close matter of comparison be-
tween Pittsburg and Cincinnati, but
the speed of the Pittsburg club is much
greater than that of its rival and il it
doesn't slip and slide back, it should
finish ahead of the Reds. II the Giants
break from their indicated pace the
Pittsburgs are strong enough to beat
them out, but whether the Pittsburgs
are strong enough TO force the Giants
to break is question.
Cincinnati has O capital pitching
staff. So has Pittsburg. Both are
better than New York in this respect.
If the Reds come through with pitch
ing they will not let the Giants put up
high scores against them. The question
then arising win be whether the Reds
can get enough runs to win. The same
thing may be said of Pittsburg.
Neither Pittsburg nor Cincinnati
has an infield which can rise TO such
heights as that of New York and
neither of them has an infield likely tC
keep such a splendid space from day tc
day. A big item, that.
The Pittsburg outfield may prove tc
be fully as good as that of New York
The Cincinnati field. If Rousch viii
play all of the season, will be littl'
worse.
That brings the question between
the clubs down tC the point where tn
better Unfolding of the Giants is t.
offset the better pitching of the Gin
cinnati and the Pittsburgs.
The Giants. however, had betet
play baseball all of the season.

1922. Not another club in the Ma
tional League was playing as well at
that time as the Giants.
1t is right to emphasize this condi-
ton because the possibilities of the
National League race hinge on this
very point. 1t does not necessarily in
dictate that the Giants are certain win
ners of the championship in 1923.
That isn't the question in the least.
II they are as smart as they think
they are and as clever as some think
them to be, probably they will win.
The points is that they got into their
stride early and they will be prodded
and spurred and driven as no team
has been driven before in New York.
There is no special strength in in

Sporting Club, settling the claim Of
frankie Genaro, American flyweight
champion, for an amount due him

Genaro complained that after the con-

Garden promoters paid him $3343. or
$4,000 less than the amount due him.
The promoters said they withheld the
$4,000 to pay Genaro's fine in New
Jersey for failure to fulfill a con-
tract to meet Villa in a contest in
that state. Genaro declared the New
Jersey settlement was made without
his consent.
