HENRY MANUSH
BECAME CHAMP
WITH EFFORT
Major League Batting Titlist
; Wins Honor After 1t Seemed
He Was a Bust

Detroit, July 29.--(P)-Henry E.
Manush, batting champion of the
major leagues in 1926. was for three
years once of those ballplayers who
always threaten yet never seem to
arrive. Possessed of an ideal phys
ique, speed. great arm and shoulder
strength and an uncanny eye. Man
ush was wasting his hitting by
swinging too hard.
He bats left handed. Invariably he
swung too fast, driving the ball with
great power but outside the right
field foul line. The hits he did make
were, with few exceptions, over first
base or through the first baseman.
Heilmann TutOred Him
In 1923, when he was playing li.-
regularly, Manush hit 344. The fol-
lowing year he fell below 300 and in
1925 he just got into the select group
with BOB.
Starting 1926 Manush was all but
counted out as regular. 1t was
apparent that Ty Cobb would need
replacement in centerfield where he
had performed for 20 years, but
Manush did not quite measure up.
Harry Heimann, who won the
American League batting champion
! ship in 1925, is credited with hav-
ing worked the improvement in Man
ush's batting. Heilmann, whose own
success has been due largely to his
! ability to place hit, took Sanush in
! tow and taught him some tricks.

TEXAS CITY
STARTS BOOM
AND KILLS IT
100000 Spent on Advertising
Campaigns Didn't Bring
Right Kind of Folks

Corpus Christi, Tex, July 29.-(P)
This is a town that paid $4,000
for boom and then deliberately
killed the boom. But the newest
port in the country has charged the
100000 up to valuable experience and
thinks the money we'll spent.
Early in September Corpuy Christi.
which nestles beside the Gulf of
Mexico, became Uncle Sans latest
port Of entry, and thereby got right
down to business of living. Six
months before that event, however, it
was among the boomiest spots on
the American continent. all because
an enterprising chamber of COM
merce had gone out in the highways
and byways and invited everybody
far and near to come settle in
Corpus.
Was a $4,000 Venture
The chamber of commerce last win
ter spent 100000 on an advertising
campaign to bring new residents to
the city. About the time the paid
invitations got we'll underway, mes
sagcs began to pour in from thigh
powered and wide awake real estate
agents." and many of the agents
soon followed their messages in per-
son. So
Almost before the city knew what
was happening. it, was in the midst
of an effervescent real estate slim
ulation. The town was inundated with
wildeyed boomers. Staid citizens who
had never before thought Of the
thing called real estate began to
talk it and breathe it. The hotel

on busy day. as real estate was
traded by nod Of the head, or a
tense-voiced shout.
Then Built Up Solidly
Soon the saner heads saw that it
was mostly talk and paper trading
and what they had wanted for $780,
GOO was building and permanent resi-
dents. So they turned in to head off
the boom.
The chamber of commerce began
sending tcleorams and letters to head
off some Of the prospective citizens.
Their was no boom in Corpus; Corpus
didn't want boom and didn't in
ind to have one. The boom was
stopped.
II had lasted about two months
and half. and in that time Ralph
Bradford, secretary of the chamber
of commerce, estimated that $8,O00,-
600 worth of property was exchanged.
The town got down to actual build
ing. Two hundred houses and bust
ness buildings have been under con-
struction the past summer, and in
one month building permits reached
$500 900, which was considered good
for a town OF $4,000. The popula-
ton increased 5000 in 10 months.

Prince Unwilling

ADMINISTRATIVE Prince Of Wales
can start fashion in any article OF

does it unwittingly and is certainly
not willing arbiter of fashion.
Rather he is most anxious to avoid
publicity or advertisement of any
sort and often goes out of his way
to escape attention. He dresses we'll

than the average man about town.
His high rank and popularity, how
ever, are seized on by haberdashers
and tailors to do some quiet adver-

Suggestions to Golfers

women are meant to be golfers,
but to those who have a certain
sort of muscular knack and the
ability to "think fast on the
course" she suggests:
Take lessons. Play with better
players than yourself. Go in for
competitive playing. Study the
rules. Avoid over-exertion and

ments-if the strain is felt.
