by storm and is credited with having aroused this city to the intense inter est in baseball which it displays to this day.
 MT. Navin's smartest piece of re cruiting was done in 1905 when he got Ty Cobb from Augusta, Ga, for $500 To get the fiery Georgian in mid-season he had to pay an addi- tional $200. This $70O has been called the most fortunate baseball investment ever made, insofar as player purchases are concerned.
 Tn carrying through his baseball politicies MT. Navin has had the sat isfaction of seeing Detroit move from the joke classification of baseball cit ies to a city with a gate exceeded each year only by New York; and he has seen the Detroit baseball club rise from a liability to an asset which, it has been estimated, returns to it's president $1O0,000 annually.

NAVIN WINS WEALTH AND BASEBALL GLORY
 WITH DETROIT TEAM

DETROIT, Feb 12.-Unlucky in politics, lucky in baseball is the way Frank J. Navin, president of the De troit American League baseball club, probably would say it.
 Eelloit from a rube baseball town tc inc f tn cG1.tal! q faEdn:r. confesses he was a false alarm as a politician sort of modern Don Cuixote jousting with the windmill. He could not convince several hund- red voters in Detroit suburb that he should be their choice for justice Of the lttce, but in the y3al5 that 1 have fci.Owed he has been eic"Itd to important places in the baseball worl by lis fellow magnatcs. He 'n+. l>.'. ntiy to membar,'ls;.' on the Advisory Souncil, highea lltuno' of basr5a,l. by replacing Ban :H'.,f': as the Ame".can Leagues repl esenta- tic.
 MT. Navin set out to become law yer Coming to Detroit from Adrian, Mich., where he was born in 1871, he worked his way through school and graduated in law, a profession he never followed, however. His ini- tial flyer in politics proving a fail ure, he was mentioned for a city hall clerkship paying $2,5O0, and then he took up baseball. He became an employe of s. F. Angus, owner of Detroit's drowsy ball club. Angus wanted to get out of the game Ban Johnson, president of the American League, came to Detroit in an effort to get rid of the white elephant
 MT. Navin, whose friends call him modern Midas and who, they say, never gambles with fate, made his greatest gamble then. Without suffi- cient money himself to swing the deal, he interested William Yawkey, wealthy sportsman. Yawkey put up the money and Navin became mana ger of the club.
 The rest of the story Of the De- troit baseball club and Frank J. Ma yin is the story of man taking a losing proposition, driving thru years of Encouragement to bring his or ganization finally to the peak of fi- nancial and diamond success.
 Two major chapters appear in the 1 book Frank Navin has written with bats, balls, mitts and money on the hard clay and green grass of Navin Field. The first was his coup in bringing to Detroit as manager Hu- ghie Jennings-"Eeh-ah," grass-pull- ing Jennings. The second was the purchase of Ty Cobb.
 By many the signing of Jennings is regarded as Mir. Navin's greatest stroke in baseball. The new manager obtained for S1,5OO from Baltimore calked the seams of discord in the Tiger craft and developed three pen nant winning clubs. He took Detroit

Young Girl of Spokane
 Writes Winning Novel;
 Is University Graduate

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-In writing 'The Bitter Country" first novel that is being published this month by Doubleday, Page & Co.,, there is al- itself. The author is Miss Anita Pet tibone, of Spokane, girl who is still in her twenties. Her story, as we'll as that of the book, centers in the State of Washington.
 The records of Knut Hamsun, No- bel prize winner in literature and John Mase1eld, noted English poet, are recalled by Miss Pettibone's suc- cess. Hamsun was once a streetcar conductor ill Chicago. Masefield, in his early days, was employed as a sWampeT in a New York city saloon. Miss Pettibone has been in a Seattle department store, a wrapper up of packages. At present she is employ ed in a Spokane store as a director of education.
 But as with the other authors, Miss Pettibone's occupations have not been confined to humble ones She is a graduate of the University of Wash ington and for two years was en- ployed as a Finnish settlement work CT.
 Whatever her position or work, Miss Pettibone has never known literary person. She had an ambition to write, but did not do so. The road by which she might have reached her goal was neglected.
 About four years ago Miss Petit bone subscribed to lesson in story telling technique that were advertis ed by Western School.
 She tapped off her novel at the rate of two hours nightly. Then followed a period of waiting. At last she re ceived notice that her story had been sold to the famous publishing house

Germany Calls For
 More Horrors In War

BERLIN, Feb 11.-Writing on the war of the future and the weapons 1t will be fought with, Hans Ritter, at one time member of the German general staff draws a picture of the indiscriminate slaughter of women and children. Electrical science will make possible the wiping out of en- tire districts behind the enemy lines without danger to the aggressor, he declares, and non-combatants will be in as much danger as uniformed sol diers.
 Electric rays offer many destructive possibilities, the author ayers. Inven- tors must devise methods to ignite explosives at lang distance, put mo- tors out of commission and destroy the eyesight of opposing combatants. Science today can increase the viru-- lence of bacteria, and the use of cer- tain gases will render the human or ganism more susceptible to disease.
