outfield probably will have plenty TO
DO when the club plays the senior
league champions.
McSeely Fine Flyhawk.
McNeely has well earned the repu-
yation of being one of the best fly
hawks III the American League. He
can cover vast amount of territory,
his speed enabling him TO go far 10
his right or left, and with his speed
is combined remarkable judgment OF
lofts. He is good at handling ground
balls and this year his throws have
been marked by distance and 2cCu-
racy.
Moon Harris is an average fielder.
2 rather certain one With, 2 limited

Clark Griffith Stadium, has an excep-
tionally large playing space. The

speed is able TO reduce the opposi

Considering the qualifications OF
both outfielderS for use in such a
series on playing rields of great eX'
tent, il would occasion no surprise
were Harris 10 begin the battle, with
McNeely in the outer defense.
Although Johnson has been her
aided widely as the Nationals start
ing pitcher for the first game, there
is a great chance that Stanley Cove
leskie may get that honor. Covey' S

ing a Spitballer, he would have a de.

Of in their campaign.
May Choose Covey.
Harris naturally will select as his
first pitcher the man he regards the
most effective Of his staff at that
time, for this hurler will be expected
TO toll twice during the series. II
Covey appears to possess the form
he had during the greater part of the
American League season when the
series starting time arrives, he and
not johnson may go to the slab.

distinction of having been the out
standing figure of the 1924 victory
of his club over the Giants.
Walter Johnson's pitching made
him heroic figure in the final game
last Fall; Earl McNeely drove in the
deciding run and PeckinSpauSh's gal
lant efforts at shortstop also figured
largely in the battle. but Harris was
the all-around sensation, fielding bril-
liantly and welding a potent bat.
Harris will have precedent against
his chance of repeating a heroic role
however. for while players have
starred in more than one series they
have never lifted themselves to the
Outstanding hero" niche more than
once.
Both Washington and Pittsburgh
have a plentiful array of candidates
in fact. In the pre.series speculation
names most frequently heard are
CoVcleskie and Johnson, Washington s
great right-handed pitchers: Harris
PccliinpauGh and Goslin, prominent
figures in the attack and defense; and
among the Pirates such sensational

 NecutiNes of cities and villages in hc anthracite region.
 Invitations were sent by telegraph 10 the mayors and burGcsses of more han 70 communities in the mining r"slon to confer publicly with the governor at the state capitol. Mir lnichot did not reveal what he had m mind. merely telling the eyccu- lives that he wished to consult with them as representatives of the peo- p.a' on the strike situation. It was understood, however, that one pur- pose Of the meeting was the gov ernors desire to ascertain sentiment or the mining communities towards his action in submitting the contro- versy to the legislature, in the call the governor indicated his intention Of asking the legislature to declare hard coal mining public utility subject to control by the public serv- ice commission.
 
 Major W. w. Inglis, chairman of the anthracite operators wage ne- gotiating committee. said the gov ernor's latest move had been expect ed by the operators and that they were mot at all stampeded." John l.. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, withheld comment. The miners leader said that so far as he knew the strike situation re- mained unchanged.
 With the suspension entering upon it's 18th week today, there are re- ports of scattered cases of destitu- lion among the idle miners and of shringage of deposits of banks in thea anthracite region. At Edwards vile, near Wilkesbarre, soup kitch- ems have been opened by prominent women, and in some other com munities a few cases of Restitution have been reported.

 In the meantime the wife of a well known attorney called at the nursery. T want to take Mary for a walk" she said. Mary had dreamed all her life about fairy princesses who waved their magic wands, shabby clothes of good little girls which dropped off and were supplanted by silks and satins but she had never seen one before. When she went for a walk the miracle happened. Not only did the kind lady" whom Mary thinks surely stepped out of a fairy book, buy her all she needed from warm woolen underwear to hats and shoes and gloves, but she even let Mary select her own dresses. The smile of the delighted girl, happy for the first time in her life. will remain In the memory of her benefactor for long time.
 Last evening Mary changed her address. Now it is PI0inville She said good-by to her father who was pleased that his little girl was going to got the attention and care he could not give her. she said Sood-by to all her little friends at the Nurs- cry, sent "Brownie" to the base ment home for the mamma doll and with Mrs John Hancock of Plainville, wife of prominent Mason in that town, and her 1G- yoar-old daughter who will be Marys big sister, she left for her new home. As soon as proper ar longements can be made she will go to school in Plainville.

NEW CHRIST CONING THEOSOPHISTS SAY
Will Return in Body of Hindu
 Sect, Leaders Say

New York, Dec. 1b OPy-Thousands of Theosophists are iourneying to India in anticipation of the "second coming of Christ" 1t is reported here.
 They are drawn by the prophecy of their leader, Mrs Annie Bcsant, international president of the The osophica lsociety that within the next five months the Star Of Beth. lehem will burn over Adyar, h. dia, and Christ will return 10 the earth in the body Of J, Krlshna- murti, 30-year-old Hindu.
 The anticipated appearance of the New Christ" which had been kept secret for some time, was revealed by Captain R. L. Jones, bookshop proprietor and American represen- tative of Mrs. Besant, Only a few weeks ago the young Hindu upon whom God Is to descend quietly visited this country, meeting mem' bers Of the faith.
 Christ win simply come as be- fore. this time using the body Of Krishnamurti as his vehicle" Cap tain Jones explained.
 But there will be no angelic trum- peting and no clouds of glory; in stead the event will have a modern aspect. Seven persons are being pre- pared as apostles, and the other five will be appointed in India, Modern publicity agents will herald the ar rival of the New Christ" as he and his apostles tourney through the world, proclaiming his message to humanity.
 Although Mrs. Besant has set five months from now as the time of the event. other theosophists have set 1t as early as Christmas.

With Experience of Twenty Years, He Tells How To

LIKE MAGIC HE RUBS
 THEIR PAINS AWAY

You folks with rheumatism, neuralgia, saciatica, or neuritis lame back, sore muscles. stiff neck chest compositions and colds. no matter how achy. stiff and sore you feel, can easily rid yourself of such pains," declares Mike Martin, Trainer of the Washington Base ball Club, who for twenty years has been keeping ball teams and university athletes in perfect phy- sical condition.
 Tots Of ball players have such troubles - more than you ever would dream to see them sliding, running and jumping around at the ball park and as trainer it's my work to keep them fit. We natural ly use everything or anything to get results for money Is no object in keeping a Star playing ball every day.
 They play in the rain. catch colds, travel in sleepers and over exercise and get lame. stiff. sore and rheumatic easily.
 Tells What He Does
 We use a liniment that may smell and look like other liniments. but 1t is a lot different. It's so mild that you can rub 1t on a chid's tender skin, yet 1t Is so quick and effective there is no person with an ache or pain who cannot get relief in jiffy. It produces more heat and retains 1t longer than any liniment made. yet you can rub 1t in all day and it positively will never blister or stain and 1t has pleasant odor also.

SPEED UP RUSSIA
League Believed Trying to Hasten Soytet's Entry Into world Or Ganization.

Geneva, Dec. 15 Pt-While the council of the league of nations commission still is endeavoring to bring the Mosul oil boundary con- trovcrsy to conclusion satisfactory both to Great Britain and Turkey, but apparently with no great amount of success attained, the council is moving in manner which is interpreted here as an indcavor to accelerate Russia's entry into the league of nations.
 An invitation is to be extended to Russia to be represented on the special committee of the council, which is to make arrangements for an economic conference of interna- tional ramifcations. The western powers of Europe apparently desire to make another effort to bring about a resumption of economic re- lations with the big soviet republic in the east.
