bit of attention. That jersey Is
worn by Frosty" Peters, Montana
half back. That's a good tip for
Butler.
Only it is hoped that the Bull
dogs will never see the number in
the game. The only way they
could glimpse it is from the rear.
They had better not let Mr.. Peters
get away and start chasing him.
for he is hard to catch.

Maybe Manager Buck Harris
of Washington was right when
he refused to allow Dutch Rue
Their to pitch against the Pirates
in the last world series.
1t is very nice to be a winner.
Last spring in st. Louis there
was some talk Of selling the Card
franchise to Kansas City because
of the belief in certain quarters
that st. Louis wasn't big enough
What a vastly different spirit is
present now.
Jess Haines never will forget
Oct. 5, 1926. The veteran reached
the heights. The pitcher had a

season. He had made total
of thirteen hits. His longest eff
fort was double. But Tuesday
well, that was different story.
He got his one home run of the
year at a time ii would do the
most good.
JEANNE LAMAR was ar
raigned in a New York
O court for not keeping a
muzzIe on her pet terrier. She told
the judge she was the champion
woman boxer of the world IT
have knocked out twenty-five
women and five men, in Europe.
No one will fight me here" The
judge suspen led sentence. What
we suggest is a medal Of bravery
for the cop who made the arrest.
Dispatches from Paris are to
the effect that red ants are ma
king life miserable for dwellers
in one section of the capital of
France. The ant is so unpopular
that authorities who have inves-
tigated say the mean little insect
came from America.
You can hardly believe 1t, but
quite a few st. Louis people were
out at Paramount Park watching
the ponies" run on Tuesday.
Doubtless they couldn't get in the
ball grounds. That seems the only
logical reason.
It has been said throughout
the season that whenever the
Yankees had to step out and
win they did it. Today would
be good time to start-and
they can't delay any longer than
Thursday.
Pat Page, Indiana u. football
coach, does not fear the scouts"
not Of a certain kind, anyway.
He has invited all Indianapolis
Boy Scouts to see the Kentucky
game on Saturday at Bloomington.
All that is necessary for admit
lance is the Scout uniform.
T7LLINOIS University public
ity talks about a Butler
49, back field man by the
name of Groumouth. Somebody
surely writes a very poor hand
or the typewriter keys got twisted.
The Urbana scribes probably will
know how to spell Fromuth after
next Saturdays fray. He is a
youngster who makes himself
known on football field
So
Reports of Tuesdays world
series game say that Babe Ruth
posed near third base for pho
tOgraphers before the contest
started. That was closer than
he got to the bag all the rest
OF the day. The BambinO did
not reach second once during the
fracas. For that matter, not a
Yankee reached third base.
So much attention is focused on
each play in world series. And
no matter how many good plays
man makes, one bad one at the
wrong time is talked Of for a year
afterwards. Mark Koenig has
made many fine stops and throws
but one miscue and all the rest
is forgotten.
Major HoOple might make good
some of his boasts if he could
just get in there and pitch
against the Yankees. The Slug
ging' New Workers have not
made an extra base hit in three
games.
(VT0tHE infield play in the series
has been high class so far.
