Calling attention TO Pitcher Jack
Quinn of the Boston Red SoX, the
Ponce de Leon of baseball.
Since the New York Yankees
traded Pitcher Urban Shocker to the
St Louis Browns, beating Miller
Iuggins, Babe Ruth and Co., has
been his favorite pastime.
However. Shocker has ben no
more embarrassing in this respect
than Jack Quinn, veteran spltball
pitcher of the Boston Braves.
Until the season of 1922. Quinn
was valued member Of the Yankees
pitching staff. His failure to show
i'm the 1921 world series with the
Giants, led to the belief that he was
done.
When the Yankees made one Of
their many trades with Boston:
Quinn was part OF the talent turned
over by the New YORK club to the
Red Sox. That was prior TO the
start of the 1922 campaign.
In the first series of the season
between the two clubs, which opened
the 1924 race at Boston, Quinn
scored one of the two Red SoX vic
tories over the world champs.
Defeated Yanks Ten Times
When asked after the game how
many times he had beaten the Yam
KEGS since leaving them, he replied:
"a player always likes to beat n
team that turns him loose. That is
one reason why | can give you some
figures on my showing against the
Yankees.
according to my dope l have
faced the New York club 2 times
and have scored 10 victories.
81 am rather proud of that record.
because pitcher has done days
work when he beats the Yankees.
Before the season is over l hope
to add at least three more games to
NY collection of wins and if ] am
lucky, maybe twice as many.

CHICAGO, November 1S.-The drive
to rid Chicago OF gunmen. inaugu-
rated by Mayor William L. Dever
after Dion O'Banion, gang leader,
was shot TO death in his flower shop
last week, is continuing by the
police. Chief of Police Morgan A..
Collins denied reports that I've cx-
pected to resign. Mayor Dever also
denied the rumors.
O'Banion, generally considered as
wealthy, died possessed of only
$4,000, according to a petition fed
for probate asking that his widow
be named administratriX.
Henry Barrett Chamberlin, operat-
ing director of the Chicago crime
commission, in a statement declared
that a study of nearly 1900 slayings
had convinced him that one of the
principal causes for the prevalence
of unpublished homicides has been
lack of cooperation between the
police and the courts.
Mayor Dever, who ordered all gun
luumen arrested and thrown into jail or
driven from the city, yesterday cautioned
the police against the arrest of in
nocent persons after nearly $50 had
been rounded up over the week end
by ambitious officers.

200 Wooden Ships
BeIO,U Alexandria

On the recommendation of Mai.
James O'Connor, the Army en-
gineer in charge of Potomac River
improvements, the War DEPART
ment has renewed for another
year the lease to the Virginia
Shipbuilding Corporation of the
land at Battery Cove, Alexandria,
reclaimed from the river by United
States engineers. That corpora
tion has arranged for the burning
of about 200 wooden ships on the
shoals off Sandy Point, at Wide
water, in the Potomac River,
about 40 miles below this city.
These vessels were built for the
Government during the World
War and were subsequently ac-
quired by the corporation, which
has not been able to find market
for them. They have been stripped
of all valuable materials and now
are mere hulks. Their destruc-
tion by fire in the lower Potomac
is conditioned on assurances that
the work shall not interfere in any
way with navigation on the river.
