How can a beginning player
overcome fear Of a speedily
pitched ball?
Answered BY
RAY SCHALK

Catcher, Chicago White Sox, One
Of the greatest baekstops Of all time.
Has caught in 100 or more games per
season for the past twelve years.
One way to overcome the fear OF
a pitched ball IL to do a little figur-
ing. About one out Of every 10000
pitched balls hits a man. About one
in every 1000 Of the balls which do
hit a man causes an injury OF any
seriousness. This means that when
a ball Ia pitched to a batter the
chances are about one in 100000
against getting seriously hurt by that
ball. Stand fiat-footed with the legs
well spread apart and 1t Will give
confidence because 1t - easy to duck
out OF the way of wild pitch when
in this position and 1t is also easy
TO take a good swing at the ball from
this position.

. IN MEMORIAM.

Preston Mason, the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Mason, was almost sud-
denly killed when mine prop fell
ing mine props near ms home when
and rushed to the hospital at Sans
oury, but died before reaching Prin-
cess Anne. He was born on Jan. l,
1904 and died on Feb. 1, 1924.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at Salem M. E. Church, Pocomoke
City, by Rev. w. r. Woodell, Of Fruit
land, Md, assisted by Rev. J. X.
Bicking. Rev. Woodell used for a
text, John 18th chapter and part OF
the 2Sth verse. His subject was '"The
three separate and distinct calls;'
First called into existence; second,
called to repentance; third, called by a
Death Angel to everlasting life.
Preston was a favorite son of his
parents, having the highest regard
for them and for his church and peo-
Pile. He was loved by all that knew
him, because of his qualifications both
morally and socially. 1t is said that
this was the second largest funeral
ever conducted in Salem M. E.
Church, but after all we feel that our
loss is Preston's gain
AS one has already said:
1t is not death to die,
To leave this weary road;
And, mid the brotherhood on high,
To be at home with God.
1t is not death to close
The eye, long dim by tears;
And wake in GLORIOUS repose,
To spend eternal years.
1t is not death to throw aside
This sinful dust;
And rise on strong exulting wing
To live among the just.
Jesus, though prince of life,
Though chosen, cannot die;
Like Thee they conquer into strife,
To reign with Thee on high.
Preston was only tender plant,
but it is sometimes while plants are
young that they are transplanted. His
remains were laid to rest in the ceme-
terry at Parkksley, Va. ,
Preston is survived by father and
mother, one brother and sister, also
many relatives and friends.

that Mccoy had not turned to greet

kept on talking to the mythical

The Eastern Shore Base Ball
League is concerned with two very
important problems just at present:
finding a man who will assume the
leadership as President; and finding
town to fill out six-club circuit.
The organization flirted with ex-
Governor Harrington, j. Harry Rev,
and F. w. C. Webb-of Cambridge,
parksley land Salisbury, respectively;
but all these were a little shy and re-
fused the diamond offered them. The
League is still without a leader.
Several towns have been mentioned
as the sixth one-Laurel, Milford,
Snow Hill, Berlin, Easton and St.
Michaels. But they all seem to be
wild land do not care to get within
the fold. Delegations from the other
towns are storming the Talbot strong
held in an effort to capture it, but,
as yet, it has not surrendered. With
Easton the circuit would be establish

the League is balanced by another
town.
The outlook seems to Indicate a
four-club combination, and that does
not show up one which can prosper
on the Shore.

Many Graceful Styles
in New Dance Attire

A social world dancing madly has
called for such evening gowns as chal-
lenge the creative genius of fashion
fashion writer in the New York Times
Almost every form of entertainment,
day or night, now resolves itself into
a dance, and the debuts and countless
other activities of the younger set have
brought out the most artistic express
siOns of dancing frocks shown in many
seasons.
Quite early the Partisan designers,
foreseeing gay jeunesse season, sent
over a variety Of models, which were
quickly absorbed and translated into
many charming versions. The houses
from which usually come the best
things in youthful dress-Vionnet, Jen-
ny, Miller, Lanvan, Lenif and Cher
uit-have established standards, and
their latest models are engaging jeune
file style, full of airy grace and beau
ty. Even the cOuturieres who repre-
sent modes of more formality, conspic-
uously Cabot, have worked out delight
full frOcks for the dance that will be
equally popular with the debutante and
the young matron.
In this colorful season Of beautiful
silks and satins, rich brocades and
metal laces, inspiration is not lacking.
and youth is always an alluring ideal.
Fashion has drawn far away from the
simple floating draperies of chiffon that
characterized the evening gowns for
two or three seasons past; these look
like the negligees of the present day.
Everything has become more elaborate,
in way, though lines still follow the
figure. Individuality is now given the
widest expression.

World Series Hero Is
Discarded by Giants

1t doesn't pay to be world
series hero-especially on the
New York Giants.
Casey Stengel, hero of 1923;
Jess Barnes, hero of 1922, and
Johnny Rawlings, hero of 1921,
will tell you so.
Rawlings saved the game for
the Giants in the series Of 1921
by a miraculous stop and throw
on the deciding play of the de-
Gliding battle. He was traded to
the Phillies the next season.
Jess Barnes was the pitching
ace for the Giants in the 1922
series with his wonderful ten
inning tie game against Bob
Shawkey. He was traded last
June to Boston.
Stengel won the only two
games the Giants captured in
the last series with hOme-run
drives. Now he is traded to
Boston.
Don't be a world series hero,
say Stengel, Barnes and Raw
lings. and save your job with
the Giants.

Isn't Counting
on Stanley Coveleskie

iris Speaker, manager of the Cleve-
land Indians, declared it his belief that
the Cleveland club would be stronger
next year than it was this, basing his
prediction upon the opinion the pitch
ing staff would be stronger And he is
not counting on Stanley Coveleskei,
either, for he says no reliance can be
placed on the phenomenal spitball
pitcher until he has had a chance to
get into shape and show.
Speaker sent his veteran pitchers to
Hot Springs on February 1 last year
for an extra month Of training. Next
February he will send all the pitchers
he is counting on for work in the cam
paign to Hot Springs, being satisfied
with his experiment of last year.

what he had in the way of skill as a

was a vigorous, progressive, floor

DAVID WAKEFIELD IN
NOTED PLAY COMING
David Warfield as Shyock In 1.-THE
Merchant of Venice" Here
February II.

David Warfield as Shylock in 1.-The
Merchant of Venice" will be an at
traction of singular interest a the
Grand theater where, under the direc-
ton of David Belasco, the famous ac-
tor is to be seen on Monday, February
IL, for not only is this character a
departure from all his previous imper-
sonations, but it is said to reveal in
full measure the great range of his
genius, while gripping the interest and
emotions of his audiences in the same
old, irresistible way.
Seemingly Mr.. Warfield has won to
higher place among the pinnacles of
fame by his portrayal of Shylock, a
figure he has made human and COM
prehensible and Invested of those as
poets Of an impossible monster, COM
mon to the Shylocks of the past. His
Interpretation has been accepted as
authoritative by critics in the east and
of his art by audiences whose domi-
nant interest In the theater is enter
tainment that grips and absorbs and
who filled the playhouse to capacity
at every performance during the rec
ord-breaking run of the Belasco pro-
duction in New York last season. In
the cast are more than forty players,
many of whom are popular with L
playgoers. The original scenic inves-
titure, the beauty of which attracted
such wide admiration last year, will
be seen at the Grand
Perhaps no actor who ever played
Shylock assumed the role after more
comprehensive study or created prep
aration than Mr.. Warfield. To him
the creation of part is an undertake
ing that engrosses him body and soul.
He studies it until, his conception un-
alterably fixed, the character becomes
real to him and he is so responsive to
the governing emotions of the part
that in his impersonation these emo
lions virtually become his own. To
no character, however, did Mr.. War
field ever devote such a study as to
Shylock, for he has been engaged up
on it more than twenty years.

Starting Tuesday.

What is said to be a very fast NOV
ing and absorbing melodrama is
promised to the patrons of the Bijou
theater for an engagement Of three
days which will begin Tuesday. It's
alluring title is Gold Madness" and
1t is a screen adaptation Of James
Oliver Curwood's fascinating mystery
story which ran in serial form in a
popular magazine recently under the
title Of The Man From Ten Strike"
Not only does this ambitious pho
toplay boast of coming from the pen
of one of the most popular authors of
modern times, but also of being the
starring vehicle of one of the most
noted actors of the American stage
and screen, Guy Bates Post.
It is said that tibet the story has
been given a most lavish production,
and this claim would seem to be en-
tirely justifiable when one scans the
names of the performers who appear
in support of Mr. Post, for at least
three of them, Cleo Madison, Mitchell
Lewis Diamond, are stars in their own
right.
