Wallace Should
Be Good Scout

Bobby Wallace, in his day one OF
the greatest shortstops that ever
lived, is scout for the Chicago Cubs
this year.
Wallace should prove most val
liable man to the Cubs from several
angles. 1t is rather surprising that
no American League club signed him
to act in such capacity.
No one is better judge Of ball
player than Wallace, and it is a
cinch that the Cubs will get node the
worst Of it from a scouting angle
with Wallace looking after their in
terests.
In addition Wallace should prove
a great help to Killefcr in the devel-
opment of his young infelders. Wal
lace, as past master at shortstopping,
touching a runner being his spe-
cialty-should be able to polish the
rough spots off Killefers promising
youngsters.

Attention. Fair Sex! Here Is The Latest Fad
To Reduce Your Weight

Park lanes here are thronged with
members of the alleged weaker sex
who tramp the 46-foot distance be-
tween stakes, bending over to pick
up their own horse shoes, keeping
at it through the daylight hours.
Twelve women have developed the
art of tossing the iron footwear so
that they can make ringers with
every other pitch, and have entered
in the national meet to be held here
during the week of Feb. 10, when
the United States barnyard golf
championship will be at stake.
There are close to 800 woman
members of the horse shoe pitching
club in St. Petersburg.

BULLSEYES OF
BASEBALL

Seldom do recruit pitchers enjoy /;
big season in their first year in the
majors.
Rarely does "rookie" break in as
a regular in his first year Usually
he sits on the bench the greater part
of the season, occasionally filling in
as a relief pitcher in game that
seems lost.
Herman Pillette of the Detroit
team of 1922 was one of the few ex-
ceptions to the rule. Pillette came
to Detroit in deal with Portland,
whereby the Tigers secured Pitchers
Johnson and Pillette. Johnson was
reckoned as the star-Pillette as the
raw recruit with promise.
Conditions. on the Detroit team
last year were just the reverse.
Pillette was the outstanding young
pitcher of the major leagues. He
won 10 games and lost II. Late in
the season he seemed to be suffering
bit from overwork and wasn't
quite so effective.
Pillette had big year, so did
Charles Robertson of the Chicago
White SoX, who achieved undying
fame with his no-run-no-hit game,
in which not player reached first.
Pete Donahue, in his first complete
year at Cincinnati, was the big noise
among the young pitchers in the Ma
tional.
While the work of the trio of
pitchers mentioned was high class,
still l can recall no recruit pitcher
who made such sensational debut
or enjoyed so big season as did

points in advance of Washington.

Athletics surprised the baseball
world by finishing second, completely
upsetting the expert dope.

of the Athletics, it was no more so
than the pitching Sof Harry Krause.

mental in keeping the Athletics in
the race.
Krause made his debut May 3,
1909, in a game against Washington,
and shut out his opponents, winning
] to 0. He won his second game by
the same score over Chicago.
The critics began to sit up and
take notice, and continued to, do SO
for some time, as Krause won his
first 10 games, the most remarkable
winning streak ever staged by a re-

HATE TEARING vITALS
OF THE OLD WORLD
COOLIDGE CONVINCED u. S.
HAS BEEN WISE IN AVOID
ING ENTANGLEMENTS.

WASHINGTON, D, C.-President
Coolidge is convinced that the United
States has followed a wise policy in
avoiding entanglements in the con-
troverSies of Europe, it was learned
authoritatively at the white house.
Reports made to the president by
observers returned from abroad are
interpreted as confirming the wisdom
of that policy.
Nothing has been revealed, Mr..
Coolidge feels, that points toward any
necessity for change in the policy
of non-intervention which has been
followed by the American govern
ment since a plurality of 100000
American voters pointed the way
three years ago.
Those who have visited Europe, in
the presidents opinion, have returned
with a more acute realization of con-
ditions there. Impressed by the bit
terness and hatreds of the Old World,
they sec all the more plainly that
there is nothing for the American
government to do at this time except
to follow the course already mapped
out.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Econom-

of the Treasury Mellon reported to
President Coolidge today after an ex-

to have given rather cheerful out

said to believe that payment of repair

will be solved in some way not as yet
known.
While in France the secretary Wis
tied the war devastated regions, but
said that everything in that country

unemployment and money appears to

perity of France was said to be the
fact that automobile plants are run

get delivery of any OF the better
grades of French cars in less than
four months.
