Bobettes Bombast

Boycott on Bobs

Dear Star.
We're few 'bobettes" who think we have a right
- very good rght--to be peeved. We have noticed
the interesting letters and stories in The Star about
bobbed hair. We have observed how The Star has
popuarized bobbed hair by its Bobbed Hair contest
and noted too, that the vote favored bobbed hair
Right after The Starss Bobbed Hair contest-or, as
the newspaper reporters would say-on the heels of it
the Seattle BARRIERS announced they would raise the
price of harcuts from so cents to 60 cents. This
sounds like od-time profteering and we don't like it
and, furthermore, we're not going to stand for it.
We wish to announce thru The Star here and now,
that if the BARRIERS shoot the price to 60 cents
hair is going to grow and grow and grow. The
BARRIERS have perfect right to make all the money
they can, but we're not going to fatten them any
longer if they won't play square

HOUSTON. Tex. Sept. 5.-Chic
IL Hafey. kid outfielder with the
Houston Texas league ball club is the
money this year in the Lone Star
circuit.
Hafey was recently sold TO the st
Louis Cardinals for $4,000.
This tops any price ever paid for a
Texas league player.
Chic is 81 years old. His home is
in Oakland. Cal. where he learned
the game on the sandlots.
In those days he wanted TO be a
pitcher. His ability as hitter made
him more valuable for everyday scrv
ice, so he trotted out to the outfield
and started shagging flies.
This is the second time the Cards
have looked Hafey over. Two years
ago Branch Hickey thought him toe
young, and shipped him TO Fort
Smith.
Last year with the Western asso
citation club Hafey only hit .2S4, but
he made - two.baggers, IL three
bnggers and l6 home runs.
Hafey has been hitting around 500
this season. and they say the Texas
league is a pitchers league. He bats
from the right side.
