SLATED TO WIN
LEAGUE BANNER
Seven Teams to Run
Them Close
Race
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
CUntted Press Sports Editorl

NEW YORK, April l3.-It is
easier and safer to venture guess
on the team that should win the
American league tpohnani than to
predict boldly aud without qualifi-
cations the team that will finish in
first place.
The New York Yankees should
win the pennant and their chances
are at least worth Il guess with their
rivals behind them in this order:
Washington, Detroit, Philadelphia
81. Louis, Chicago, Cleveland and
Boston
The Yankees are an improved
club, and they should play with
more determination than they did
last year when they loafcd until it
hustling Senators.
Washington was lucky to win the
pcnnant last season. The team is
improved this year, but not as much
as the Yankees. Dutch Rcuthcr and
Stan CovclcSkic, new additions to
the pitching staff, may win Il lot
of ball games, but some of the
pitchers who helped along last year
may not be as good this var.
Detroit has Il fine ball club. But
the Tigers are lik" the Pittsburgh
club i'll National league. They arc
u threat and rotalmg more. The
Tigers have 4 punch, good pitch.

Ty cobb viii not he n championship

The Philadelphia Athletics are the
real big threat in the league. Con.
ME Mack SAYS he can win the pen
naut if Chick Galloway comes back
to the form that he had two years
ago. Mack seems to have no doubt
that Lefty Groves, the 100000
pitcher from Baltimore, will be a
success and he figuros that he viii
be good for - games.
The Browns are 4 lot like the
Cardinals. They have power. but
they are not balanced. If Sislcr

BEN TURPIN'S WIFE IS
DEAD AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Famous Comedian Has Been Almost
Constantly At Her Bedside
Funeral Tomorrow

Hollywood. Cal, Oct. . F-Ben
Turpin's long vigil at the bedside OF
his invalid wife was at an end today.
The motion picture comedian aban-
doned his work at the studios when
Carrie Lemieux Turpin became seri-
ously Ill last December, and the call
of the camera was unheeded month
after month as he cared for the
woman who would accept no other
illustrations but his. Yesterday
death ended her suffering.
The Turpins were married in Chi
cago about eighteen years ago and
Mrs. Turpin worked with her hua-
band on the legitimate stage and Ia
ter In pictures. They were brought
to Hollywood ten years ago by
Charlie Chaplin.
When Mrs. Turpin lost her hearing
after an attack Of influenza two
years ago. her comedian husband
took her to the shrine of Saint Anne
De Beaupre. near her birthplace In
the Province of Quebec, in the hope
that she might receive healing.
Last December she became criti.
cally i'll, and in the succeeding
months suffered several strokes OF
paralysis.
Services will be held for Mrs. Tur.
pin tomorrow at the Church of the
Blessed Sacrament, after which hel
body will be laid to rest at Forest
Lawn cemetery.

ether Waves AS,
CAUSE OF GRAVITY
Capt. See, .. 5. N, Makes I'm
portant Scientific Announcement

San Francisco, Oct, 2 R,-Captain
T. J. j. See, professor OF mathe-
mates, United States navy and gov
eminent astronomer at Mare Island,
announced In statement today that
he had completed confirmation OF
the ether-wave theory as an explana-
ton OF the physical cause of uni
yersal gravitation.
Professor See said that his an
nouncement follows exhaustive lab.
oratory experiments and computa-
tions based on the works of several
famous scientists including Sir Isaac
Newton, who formulated the law of
gravitation; the French astronomer,
L.aPlace; the scientists, HALEY and
Fourier, and the famous architect,
Sir Christopher Wren.
In the language Of the layman,
Professor See says hts theory ex-
plains beyond question the motions
Of the planets their attraction for
each other, together with the nature
and speed Of light and sound waves.
The ether. Sees thesis maintains, is
a substance. but many, many times
more tenuous than air or even the
most tenuous of the cases. In fact
the astronomer says, the ultimate
particle of ether If 1000 times small
Ter In diameter than the hydrogen
molucle. Ether, he AYERS, Is AZ bill
lion times less dense than hydro
gen. Ether's nervousness Is such
that 1t attains a speed 2S.5 times
faster than the flight of the fastest
electron.
Despite the highly attenuated
form OF ether making 1t entirely i'm
perceptible to the senses of man
| there is so much Of it that Its weight
and its waves serve to hold in place
the countless suns and planets
! throughout the universe.
Professor See refers to the ethe,
as "the world gas" He says its
particles travel 81 per cent faster
! than light or 100000 miles per sec
| Dhb' II -, jlt oh9b 70 'Ih- l. pNp'DhN
| times more elastic than air In pro-
portion to its density. The rapid
| fight OF the ctheron, the most mi
mute particle in existence, accounts
according to See for the volicity OF
| light and the bending of radio waves
| about the earth.
Something Of the strength and
pulling power of the ether, which is
supposed to enVelop and permeate
everything in the universe, is given
by the navy astronomer In the fol-
lowing statement:
Exact calculation shows that if
we had five trilliOn cables OF steel,
each a foot In diameter and the
steel capable Of lifting 80 tons to
the square inch of the cross section,
this whole giant forest of steel cables
would be stretched to the breaking
point to hold the moon in its orbit
about the earth. To hold the earth
in its orbit about the sun would re-
qlire an 11-inch cable Of such steel
! on which square foot OF hemisphere
cal cross section Of our globe, which
practically would cover the earth's
surface with such a forest of steel
cables. each stretched to the limit Of
It's tensile strength"

ELECTRIC RAILWAY
OUTLOOK IS GOOD
Elimination Of Five Cent Fare
Lauded BY Speaker

Wellesley, Mass. Act, (R-The
elimination OF the ill-conceived D.
cent fare Ia the most important step
that has been taken in the industry
and is an indication OF the public's
"keener appreciation OF the value of
life of the country" declared
Charles f. Thompson, president
of the Chicago, North Shore and
Milwaukee railroad in an address on
THE Traction Outlook" before the
i2th annual business conference at
Babson park here today.
Compared with the situation five
years ago, he said, the outlook for
electric railways Is optimistic,
THE ill-conceyed universal five
cent fare has been eliminated" de-
clared Vice President Thompson,
save In a few instances, where II Is
retained for political reasons. The
flat rate of fare was an economic
error but Is firmly and universally
was it established that 1t almost
wrecked the industry TO abolish It,.
! The abolition of the 5-cent fare
marks forward step. In fact, the
most important step that has been
taken in the industry. because 1t
places the price OF transportation
service on a sound economic footing,
based on the cost of PRODUCTION in
stead of being o mere matter of GUS
tom or convenience"
Discussing the future Of the cleo
trio railway, Mr.. Thompson said:
1.-The success Of the traction COM
panies, generally speaking, will be
measured by the degree to which
the managers realize their respon-
sibilities to the public and take ad
vantage of the opportunities offered
them. The public wants speed and
comfort in travel and the company
which goes farthest toward filing
those wants will be successful,
THE people will not buy scenery
as a substitute for service. An cleo
trio railway may run through the
most beautiful scenery In the coun-
try, but If the cars are old and
creaky, If its roadbed Is rough and
uneven, 1t will have few riders. In
this age the transportation company
which is content to stand still and
wait for business to come to it, is
going to stand still until 1t is re-
lieved by a receivership.
''The fact that some railways
have been abandoned in the last few
years really proves nothing, except,
perhaps, that they should not have
been built in the first place. It has
been become a popular custom to
herald widely that this or that cleo
trio railway has been abandoned be-
cause of automobile and bus com
petition. But If each situation is
carefully analyzed 1t will be found
that such railway always has been
n financial failure and there never
lad been any real need for it.
"A coach running on rails can be
operated more economically than
one running on rubber tires and at
a much higher rate of speed. The
electric railway has fully demon
strated its usefulness in our trans
, portation scheme and it is here to
stay"
