funeral services Will be held Tues
day at Fitchburg, Mass, Moran's
birthplace. Ivy Wingo and George
Harper, as representatives of the Gin
cinnati club will accompany the body
to Jacksonville, where Moran's
brother will meet it
The Reds went into mourning for
forty-eight hours Immediately after
their leader died.
Moran arrived at training head
quarters here last week and on Mon
day suffered a general breakdown.
He was taken to hospital and four
doctors were in constant attendance,
fighting the disease, announced as
acute nephritis. Only medical skill
and the application of stimulants
kept Moran alive until his wife
reached his side.
Moran's death, teammates said,
came when they were looking for
ward to successful season, with the
hope of repeating the victories of
1919, when under his leadership they
captured the National League PEN

Ine sparkling INCIDENTS of play
which the memory retains for all
time are apt to turn up in ordinary
play or in matches which have no
permanent Importance.
The most unusual play I ever made
was in a special best ball foursome
at the Merton Cricket Club, Philadel-
phia, during the first visit to this
country of George Duncan and Abe
Mitchell, the great British profess
sionals. Max MarSton, the present
amateur champion, and I were pitted
against the Britons. We succeeded
lin administering the first defeat they
suffered during their tour.
The play turned up at the ninth
hole, a 175-yard affair, when / pushed
my iron tee shot to the right of the
green and into the brook tl-at flank ed
it. On coming up to my ball. I found
it resting upon the top Of little nest
of twigS which had been washed
downstream and had lodged in some
rocks.
This unexpected lucky lie offered a
chance to get to the green without
penalty, although / would have to
shoot over a built-up mound in order
to do SO.

my stance, which, unfortunately, had
to be on the upstream side of the
ball. The current was DETECTED just
enough to dislodge the twigs sup
porting the ball. They f1oated gayly
away, while the pellet dropped mis-
erably to the bottom of the stream,
nesting obstinately in the midst of

Moran Made Great Record.
Patrick Joseph Moran. veteran base
| hall player and manager, was a
native of FitchburgS Mass. where he
was born February Z, 1876. He OBJ
tanned his first professional engage
ment at Lyons, y. V. twenty-Seven
years ago and soon was graduated
into fast company at Montreal.
Young Moran caught Well, played a
good third base and while never a
heavy Slugger, he delivered hits wh en-
they counted. He was taken by the
Boston Nationals in 1901 and soon
became the leading backstop of that
club
When the Chicago Cubs began their
wonderful career of triumph they
bought Moran from Boston He acted
as Kings adjutant through all the
glorious campaigns of Chances team
and was chief catcher in 1909, the
year King remained out of the game.
After the Cubs ceased to dominate
base ball, Moran was sent to Phila-
delphia. where he speedily became
the manager and won the National
League flag of 1915. Against the
Boston Red SoX in the world series
of that season his team won only one
game in five.
Moran left Philadelphia in 1919 and
went to Cincinnati. He won the pen
nant that year and after the conquest
of the White SoX in the world series
was termed the miracle man of the
base ball world"

r. r. PRESIDENT
SEES VALLEY,
ENTHUSIASTIC

From the zero weather of Chicago,
to the warm sunshine of Imperial
Valley, is a most desirable change,
according to j. f. German, president
of the Rock Island Railroad, who
passed through Ell Centre this morn
Ing on the San Diego and Arizona
train from the East.
During the five minutes the train
stopped in FL Centro, Mr.. German
conversed with Charles F. Matlin,
travelling agent for the San Die 90
anu Arizona, and asked many ques.
tions about Imperial Valley. In the
manner of big executive, Mr.. Cor.
man shot his questions with consld
cradle rapidity and wanted to know
all about crops, climate, rainfall
shipping conditions and other infor
nation.
His first remark upon alightina
from his private car, in which he is
travelling to the coast with a party
of friends, was compliment for I'm
perial Valley sunshine and the won
derful climate here. Mr.. GormaT
said the winter has been unusually
cold in Chicago, and there is con
siderable suffering there, ever
among the well-to-do class. Had
the usual summer coal strike not
been averted, he believed many peo
pie would have perished during the
recent cold spell.
San Diego and Arizon Railroad of.
fieials, who were advised of the
coming of Mr.. German IS party, have
made arrangements to have a repre.
sentative of the railroad accom-
pany them to San Diego, and point
cut places of interest along the
route. The party was particularly
anxious to see Carriso Gorge, having
heard about it in railroad circle
back east.
Mr.. German and his party will re,
main in San Diego for several days,
and expect TO return East following
a visit to Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco.
