Today, says Mann, an OUT
fielder simply stands in his posi-
ton until the ball comes his way.
Then he tries to catch it. After
that he believes his work done.

fielders have deteriorated fully
SO per cent since ! broke in
Ii years ago.
AOutfielders should be scheming
all the time how they may aid IN
putting out the batsman, not only
by catching fly balls but by clever
plays, catching the runners off
their guard. / don't think they
are doing that now.
"In the first place, Of course,
the lively ball has ruined much
of the better part Of baseball.
The outfielders must play fully
80 or 40 feet deeper now than
they did before the lively ball
came in. They don't have SO
much chance of returning the ball
in time to catch runners.
Nevertheless, how often have
you seen runners advance to sec

lobbed the ball back to the i'm
field? Yes, many times. So

impress upon the players their

YARMOUTH, Nov. 29. P)-Once upon a time there were fishwives. To- day there are fish-fairies. The sea- sonal influx of 1assies from Scotland, who come here to clean, cure and pack the famous Yarmouth herrings has this year undergone a remark able metamorphosis.
 Formerly the herring, lassies wore heavy wooldn skirts, aprons, thick boots and tam o'shanters all the time, but this year they have burst forth into silk stockings, modish short skirts and shingled hair. They also carry vanity bags and powder their noses.

IMMENSE GROWTH FISHING INDUSTRY
 WITHIN 50 YEARS
AND ALASKA OUT. PUT AGGREGATES M ANY
 MILLIONS ANNALLY

When the poet Berkeley wrote the words, Westward the star of empire takes it's way" he did not have the fisheries of the world in mind, but they have been prophetic of this industry just the same. First, the fishermen of the Atlantic coast of North America wrested the fishery pre-eminence from the Old World, and now, slowly but surely, the hardy pioneers of the Pacific are supplanting the former. and it is probably a matter of only a few years before they are at the top, for greatest present undeveloped fishery resources of the world are in the Pa- cific area.
 The salt and fresh waters of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska teem with aquatic life. Of fisheries proper about 5S5 species are found. Of these some 150 enter more or less actively into consumption, but of these only about 30 species-ten of which are purely game fishes-are in fairly common use.
 In the State of Washington in 1880 there were 1,700 persons engaged in our fisheries, with total investment of $75,35S, and a production valued at sS64,S52. In 1924, A years later, we find 10,346 persons employed in our fisheries, with a total investment of s11,O76,00O, and a production val ued at s11,O69,9s5.
 During the period noted above, Alaska's fisheries have had an even more wonderful development than those of Washington. In 1880 there were $50 persons employed in her ! fisheries, with a total investment of $91,900, and a production (cod, her ring, salmon, fur seals, walrus and sea otter valued at $3,091, ,427
 By 1924 the persons employed had increased to $24194, the total invest ment to $62,660,637, while the pro- ducts prepared had value of S4O, 54S57S.
 h 1880 there were eleven canneries located in Washington, ten on the Columbia river and one on Puget sound. The production of salmon in 1880 amounted to S92,279 in number and by 1924 the catch had increased to 4,119,S4S fish, while the number of canneries had increased to 36.

MURDER TO
SWING FRIDAY
Death Row Is Crowded in
Cook County JaiI--Five
Die Feb. 10.

Du United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-First Of nine
men, who sit in "murderers' row
at the county Jail will hang Friday
morning. He is Campbell Mccarthy,
strappling young Negro Of 10, who
slew Christian Getzen, Waterman.
Life spans of six more. including
five white men, are measured by
grim red circles on the calendar in
the office Of Warden George w.
Weideling, two floors below.
Sam Washington, another Negro,
will hang Feb. IS, for the murder
of his common. law wife. There Is a
particularly heavy ring about the
date Feb. 10. Unless last minute
reprieves are granted, five white
men will be hanged that day. The
men are Henry J. Fernekes, "Midg-
et'' bandit and killer; John Flannery,
Daniel McGeighan, Joe Holmes and
Jack Woods.
Drake Bandits
The first were convicted of MUIR
dering building and loan company
official during a hold-up; Holmes
and Woods were participants in the
sensational hold-up of the exclusive
Drake hotel here slast summer. The
hold-up occurred in the afternoon
when the lobby was thronged. All
the clerks were herded into one Of
flee and one OF them was shot to
death when he failed to act as
promptly as the bandits commanded.
The five bandits seized a sum es-
timated at 10000. and lied in an
automobile. Only one escaped, the
others being shot down or captured
In wild automobile chase through
the street.
Holmes and Woods, 25 and "a.
respectively, are from the western
range country. They are quiet, talk
little and face death stoically.
Fernekes, Flannery and McGeig-
han are typical city thugs.
Two More
The other two men for whom the
date of execution will be set--Iater
are Ralph Reno and Raymond Cos
tello. Reno killed man and woman
during quarrel. Costello murdered
girl.
They seem to take their fate phil
osophically," the warden said. They
do no whining. They lived by vio-
'lence and seem willing to die that
way"
There are seventy-f1ve other muir
derers in the county Jail awaiting
trial or action by the grand jury.
Fearing possible attempts at a Jail
delivery, policemen guard the jail
day and night.

October. 1914, he made the speech of
his life at the laying Of the corner
stone of the new Eighth Regiment
Armory, where he freely mingled with
the colored people. Shortly after that
event he presented Col. Franklin A.
Denison with fine and very expen-
sive mahogany writing desk which will
remain In the rooms Of the Eighth
Regiment Armory for many years to
come.
Mr.. Sweitzer always deports him
self like unto 4 first water or high

cratic in his ways, and the doors lead
ing into his main Office always stand
wide open during business hours 50
that the rich and the poor. the white
