The wandering Barons come home Monday. The New Orleans Pelicans will be their guests, The Stewart clan has meandered over large part of the circuit since it last played here and the trip has consumed some two weeks of its time. Despite tAe fact, however, that 1t has been. spotting it's opponents some little advantage in attempting to beard them in their own bailiwicks the team has come out very well. Its spurt, which was started before going on the road, is not broken and the combine has been playing 800 per cent ball while travelling. This, in view of the strength of teams encountered and playing them on their own diamonds, is quite a good record within itself.
 The Barons hopped off to n nice start by checking the league leading Chicks in a four-game series. The Chica- saws had been taking in all visitors or hosts, as the case happened to be, and climbing farther into the lead. The best results accomplished by the pace settlers was an even break with their tenacious visitors.
 Chicks Cap First
 The Chicks opens up fiery and feroci- ous and copped the opener to 3. Clarke and Jones were ineffective and the Memphis crew swept on. Then young Mr. Roy Walker pushed himself up into the front and appeared to be deliberately sticking his head in the lions mouth. Fears of doubtful back CTS passed away, however, as the young recruit breezed through frame after frame with the Chicks standing at bay. The final Chick passed out with only a pair of counters marked. Walker gave up four hits and the Barons made nine runs.
 Lungren Beats McGrew
 The Chicks won the second, to 2, bJ fluke hits off Sep Good but Delmar Lundgren turned back the Memphis Tribe in the final encounter when he whipped Dangerous Dan" McGrew in an eleven-inning pitchers battle. The

Praises Wilson and DepIoreS
Division of Progressives"
in United States.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, October 31.-Hearty
Endorsement of what he termed the
''progresSiviSm' of the Democratic
platform of 1924 and reafflrmation of
his faith in the Wilson League of
Nations program were the center
pieces Of an address made here yes
terday by William Gibbs McAdoo, de-
feated candidate for the Democratic
presidential nomination.
Speaking to an association of Davis
Bryan woman's clubs. representing Is
cities, McAdoo declared that the pro-
gressivism of the Democratic plat
form was necessary in the foreign re-
lations of thes United States to pro-
tect the country's interests abroad
and prevent complete isolation of
America.
He again indorsed the Wilson pro-
gram for entry of the United States
into the League of Nations, arguing
that this country could not afford to
stay out of an international organ
ization which already included 54
other countries.
Calls Democrats Progressive.
1.-The stand of the Democrats is thor
oughly progressive in agriculture,
labor. social, foreign relations and
every other condition that our coun-
try will face in the next four years.
Mr.. McAdoo said.
He deplosed what he called 'the
division" in the ranks OF the pro-
gressive element in the United States,
part of which was aligned with Davis
and the remainder behind La Toilette.
The accomplishment of such divi-
sion, he asserted, was part of the po-
litical tactics of the Republican party.
The present administration was
characterized as one of great, silent
purity" and, he added. 'if it's impo-
tence were to continue for the next
four years, the administrative ma
chinery would be reduced to chaos"

Mans Character Declared ShO,Un
By Manner IN Which Hat Is Worn

of what DR.. Kimmins says, and de
clare they knew all this long ago.
II always examine my customers
hats as they come into the shop" said
one halter Before they have given
their order l have formed my con-
illusions with regard to the kind OF
hat they need.
"A man with fashionably shaped
bowler tilted forward over his right
eye will want an expensive but fash
ionable hat. The man who wears his
lid dead straight will in all proba-
bility demand serviceable hat, and
will possibly be particular over the
price
Men who wear their hats tilted to
the left are the rarest type. They
usually want something out of the
common. But there Is a chance that
one may misjudge this last type, they
may merely be left handed
