Col. Jake bought control of the
Yankees in 1915. Unable to win
with the late William C. wild BID
Donovan as manager, Jake signed
Miller j. Higgins, unsuccessful
manager of the ST. Louis Nationals,
for six years, as team boss.
Col Jake and his partner, Col
Tillinghast L. Huston, backed Hug
gins to the limit. The Yanks paid
fine salaries. They won their first
pennant in 1921. They won again
in 1922. The youthful Yanks had
grown too robust to act as custom
ers of the Giants and continued to
use the Polo grounds as their play
ing field, SO the colonies decided to
build a park of their own.
The Yankee stadium, the worlds
greatest ball park, was the result.
The wiseacres scoffed at old Jake.
The stadium. said they, mad cost
too much. 1t would never pay.
But they reckoned not the drawing
power of Babe Ruth, Yankees big
star. The Yanks won again in 1923.
After a two-year respite. they won
again last year. BY this time Col.
Jake had bought out the interest of
Col. Til. The Yanks won again
this year.
Yes. the colonel knows his stuff.

Col. Jake Rupert. the Jake who
almost killed the Giants, has once
more come through and is again
riding the crest of baseball's for
tunes.
Five times in his IL years as
owner of the New York Yankees
has Col. Jake seen his boys grab
off a 4 nnant. This year, with the
best team he has ever owned, the
grabbing off was conducted in a
most remarkable manner From
the day the American League teams
started the 1927 race the Yanks
were in first place and have never
been headed. Twice they were
threatened, once when the Athletics
reared, and another time when the
White Sox slipped up within a
game of them, but the Yankees
never faltered And now world
series meat is to be theirs and
Jake's.
Col. Jake deserves to taste of the
good things of baseball. He was
the man who made the American
League success in New York, af-
ter decades of dominance in Goth
am by the National League. Since
baseball's dawn the New York Gil
ants were the apple of New York's
eye, and when the Yankees ap-
peared in 1903 it was to be in the

ONE NICKEL!
That's All 1t Takes to Settle
This Question of Real
Smokes at SC Per

Some men say it can't be done.
Some men say it never could be
done. Some men say it never will
be done. Let them argue. The fact
remains that a mild, fragrant cigar
can be produced to sell for &c.
There is such a cigar on sale to-
day. A cigar that's been on the
market for thirty years and is sell
ing bigger than ever-at sc. A
cigar that cost more money for
years. That is finer smoke today
than it ever was. It's mild, ripe
tobacco. A cool, slow smoker. Full
of aroma. Satisfying. It's got
everything you have a right to ex-
pect in a higher-priced cigar.
Hard to believe? Here's the way
to prove it, at total cost of five
cents. Ask for just one Hd0ana
Ribbon anywhere in town. You'll
know the happy truth from the
first draw. If you wonder how we
do it, the answer is volume produc-
ton. Production that runs into
millions. Buy one Hauana Ribbon
today, and you'll buy dozen
tomorrow.
