OPEN SEASON FOR
 PICKING WINNERS
All Teams Given Some Kind of
 a Chance ill Dope

1 Now York, March lG.-UP)- In this open season for picking pen nant winners, nearly every team in the major leagues Is being given some Kind os chance.
 Opinion, expert and otherwise is divided on all clubs except inc Philadelphia Phlig!ns and the Bos- ton Red SoX. They are unanimous choices for last place. Picking pennan, winners when the training season is just half fin ished is a hazard for repWatious and aockotbooks.
 With few exceptions. the predic- ,ioas ot th- experts were miles off the target in 1926. when the New York Gi1uts were majority choice in the National league and those who didn't cast vote for Me Grlw's club stAug along with Pittsburgh. The Giants slumped into the second division and the Pi- rates couldn't keep up with the St. Louis Cardinals oI the Cincinnati Reds.
 ' The most terrific strain on expert opinion exploded in the American league when the New York Yankees dashed away in ,he first week of the race and pulled across the finish line badly winded but ahead
 Miller HueEius. manager Of inc Yankees. who never has boon fam od as an orator or disciple Of optirnism isn't claiming another pennaut.
 The Athletics and the Senator's are very good ball cluhs and I don't know what my club will do this year." b. said,
 There are others. however. pick ing tho pennant for Iluggins, hest known Of whom are rahn Ruth and Jack Hendricks, manager of the Cincinnati Reds. who in the same voice puts in boost for himself.
 The Yankees will win the Amer ican league pennant and we've got only Pittsburgh 10 beat 10 win in he National leaguo." ha said.
 Hendricks expressed inc opinion that the Giants weren't to he figured at all but many critics think the Giants can't miss.
 Rogers liornsby who managed the Cards into worlds champion ship last year and who Is now play ing second base for the Giants. picks his new club as circh.
 "The Cards are 2 one-year club" he said.
 Frank Frisch. who changed posi- 'ions and clubs with Holnehv, is just as positive that the Cardinals will be in another world series.
 George Kelly, who was traded by the Giants 10 the Reds. figures the Cincinnati club is a sure thing and quoted tho opinion Of Hcinie Groh to the samc effect.
 Waiter Johnson, veteran Wash 1 ington pitcher. thinks the Senator's will beat out the Athletics for the pennaut and that Detroit will finish ahead of the Yankees.

Beneath the Period Costumes
DLAYING a feminine lead or star

DLAYING a feminine lead or star
ring role in period picture is not
all a round of joy. Any actress who
has played such a part can give sew

statement.
From Edith Head. who assists
Travis Banton in designing the cos
TUNES for Paramount pictures, comes
n new angle on the trials Of the player
in a period picture. 1t is the corset
ordeal.
The modern athletic girl. with her
sports clothing. has never experienced
the sensation of being laced into an
armorlike contrivanCe of steel and
whalebone. The corset of 1850 was
fearful and wonderful thing, far diff
ferent from the modern elastic girdle.

TO learn about this waist squeezer.
when knights were bold" the Ia
dies had little waists. They came
from long years of lacing. With the
emancipation of the fair sex, women
became human beings with human
waistlines. The waistline of the av-
erage woman has grown some 10
inches in the past century. experts de-
clare.
The player who takes the part of
the court beauty in the days of Louis
XIV must. of course, look like the
beauty of that period. So the ancient
cOntrivanCe of steel and whalebone
does it's work stars must keep trim
waists, for it is part of their business.
