Both Of them quite cheerful about It. The former
Secretary Of the Interior especially radiaed goodnate and
smiles.
Why Mr. Fall should exhibit such is somewhat
difficult of comprehension. His trial the Elk Hills

around Jupiter. This change of
brightness is apparently due to
variations of the reflecting power

direct method of determining their
rate of rotation has to be EN-.
ployed. To see how it is possible,
let US make little picture. With
Jupiter in the center we have one
of his moons represented in two
opposite places in its orbital mo.
ton around him. Suppose then
when the moon is at "a" it's light
is comparatively dim. while when
it is at ,"B" it is comparatively
bright. Ana. suppose that this is
observed to be the case every time
that the moVl passes from one
s. side of the planet to the other.
Since there els independent tele-
scope evidence that Jupiter's
moons have different degrees of
reflective power IN different parts
of their surfaces. the conclusion is
warranted that the observed
changes OF brightness are caused
by the successive presentation to-
ward the observer now Of darker
side of the moon and now OF a
lighter one, the change occurring
periodically in step with the reVo-
luton around Jupiter. This would
be accounted FOR if the moon
turned half way round on its axis
while going half way round Jupi-
ter.
Keeping Same Face
For instance. when the moon
is at "a" the darker part is
toward the sun and the earth,
whereas when it arrives at 3D."
half way round the orbit, the
lighter part is presented. But
this can only be the case if. while
going from "A" to 3D." the moon
has turned half way round on it's
axis. thus keeping the same face
always toward Jupiter.
The curious periodicity Of the
light changes In coincidence with
the period of revolution has been
detected by Prof, Stebbins in

Star at Louisville
Information that Bethel. for years
the star second baseman of the
Louisville Colonies. had been ap-
pointed field boss Of the Tribe leaked
out Thursday and Indianapolis fans
were delighted with Owner Smiths
selection TO fill the berth left open
when Ownie Bush was elevated to
the managerial seat at Pittsburgh.
Bethel is of the Bush type,
aggressive, peppery and a hustler.
He Is 80 and has been in league
baseball for many seasons. He was
in the majors a short time as a
member of the Cardinals and
played with Indianapolis part OF
the 1918 season. His home is at
Celina, Ohio. a
Eddie Sticking. second baseman
and Tribe captain the past few
seasons, was a strong candidate to
succeed Bush here, but owner Smith
preferred Bethel and finally put
through the deal with the Colonies.
Straight Trade
No cash was included. It was a
straight player trade. Shortstop Maui
rice Shannon and Outfielder Rehg
going to the A. A. pennant winners
in exchange for Bethel. Rehg also
was a managerial candidate here.
The trading of Rehg takes away
the oldest member of the Indians in
point of service, and Tribe fans will
miss the smiling Walter.
Owing to the fact Bethel viii be
playing manager and perform at
second base, Eddie Sticking will be
sold or traded. Eddie has played

rather weak for that position.

Class AA caliber and this problem
will be worked on at Asheville.

Of the Tribe. is in California and
William c. Smith, Jr.. is in New
York. A wire from Owner Smith
to Secretary Clauer Thursday night
confirmed the Bethel appointment.
news of which crept up by the
rumor route from Louisville early
Thursday.
Bethel came to terms with the
Smiths when he made a gumshoe
visit to Indianapolis a few days ago.
Shannon for Bethel would have
been an even trade, but the Indian
bosses were forced to part with Rehg
also In order to meet the terms de-
manded by the Colonel bosses before
they would give up Bruno.

Choice Over Walker in
Title Bout Tonight.
By Clark B. Kelsey

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-"Tiger" Flow
ers, Negro, worlds middleweight
boxing champion, goes into his ten
round decision fight against Mickey
Walker, former welterweight king,
which is to be fought in the coliseum
here tonight, a to favorite.
The Tiger" had a pound or two
to work off before weighing in time
at 8 o'clock today, but his manager,
Walk Miller, had little concern over
his fighters ability to make the 100
pound limit.
Walker will attempt to provD
that fistic experts were wrong in
CHASING him as a ''has BEEN" after
he lost the welterweight crown to
Pete Latzo, at Scranton, Pa, sew
eral months ago.
AT that time fast living had taken
A much out of Mickey and, with
80 increasing difficulty of ma king
weight, he was easy for Latzo. With
his fighting heart, however, he set
out to rebuild himself and now feels
as fit as ever.
Flowers is figured to outspeed
Walker, while the former weller
weight champion hopes to outslug
the middleweight champion. While
Flowers is a slight favorite, Jack
Kearns, Walkers manager, is so
confident that his boy will beat the
colored title holder that he already
has completed arrangements to book
the New Jersey Irishman as cham
pion.
Opinion seems to be that If the
battle goes the route, Flowers will
earn the decision, and that if there
is a Knockout it will come from
Walkers right mitt, landing on
Flowers chin.
A sell-out house is expected.
