Mistake Causes MerTiment Among
Friends of Princess Cnntdcuzene
Infant Born in Chicago
Is Grandson, Not Son,
of President Grants
Granddaughter

With Princess Cantacuzene
newly arrived in town and
busy with plans for her
daughters wedding, the an
nouncement in dispatches
from Chicago of the birth of
q son to @Prince and Prin-
cess Cantacuzene, the mother
Q granddaughter of Presi-
dent Grant and formerly
Miss Julia Dent Grant, .
created some excitement here.
And the Princess has come
In for no little gentle razz-
ing from her friends.
Grandson!
It develops, as might have
been expected, that the infant
is the son of Princess Cantacu-
zene's son and daughter-in -Iaw,
the young Prince and Princess
Michael-or Mihail in the Rus
sian spelling-Ca ntacuzene. The
mother was the former Miss
Clarissa Curtis, Of Boston, and
the young couple are making
their home in Chicago.
In Wedding Party
Young Prince Michael will be in
the wedding party for the marriage
of his sister, Princess Ida Canta-
cuzene, and John Colbrook Han
bury Williams on November i, and
pretty Prin- cess Clarissa hopes to
come along, too, if she can leave
her infant son-or finds that she
can bring along so small a baby.
In any event, the couples small
daughter, Iraina. is to be flower
girl.
One is more than likely to find
these Russian Highnesses regis
tered simply as Mr.. and Mrs.
Michael Cantacuzene, for this up
standing great-grandson of Presi-
dent Grant is proud of his Aneri-
can heritage and feels that titles
have little place in ~ in the

bered that Princess Bertha Canta.

Failure of Senate to Ratify Treaty

Moriarty wouldn't say today that
it had arrived at that point but
he left no doubt that he considers
he has a sure contender, in spite
Of slightly uncertain pitching. The
rest of the club, he declared, needed
nothing and wanted nothing.
Funny thing about those pitch
ers," he observed. '..They have
lot Of promise; there are some
good men on the staff and they
have shown me they know what
it is all about. Yet they haven't
developed the way they should. If
they do, anything can happen,
for I don't mind saying that / have
ball club here"
He is especially keen about
his revamped infield. Only the
keystone pair, Tavener and
Gehringer, remain from the
quartet which started the 1927
season. This pair, however, is
regarded by camp observers as
the most promising young COM
days travel, particularly since
TaVener has completely recOv-
cred from last seasons Injuries.
On first base will be Johnny
Neun, who was good enough last
year to drive Lu Blue to cover and
eventually off the club altogether.
Neun Is another young star. At
third will be Marty McManus, who
has suddenly decided to pay some
dividends on his st. Louis reputa-
ton. Marty has taken the position
away from Warner, last years
regular, and Is going So well that 1t
would take q ranking star to re-
place him.
Moriarty refers to this infield as
the best Detroit has had in years.
II it does what he says it will, it
will make even Indifferent pitching
look good.

the pitching really shouldn't be

son, Carroll, Billings, Smith,
and Van Glider figured as reg
uIars. They have the potential
ability and IL they begin to
click. the fact that young pitch
ing has been a disappointment
this year can be forgotten.
Vic Sorrell, the Southerner. is far
and away the best of the younger
crop. He is expected, from what
he has shown here, to pitch in his
regular turn with Whitehill, Stoner.
Holloway and the front-rankers in
general.
Sullivan, Hubbell and Paulson
probably are the best of the re-
naming young pitchers, but they
won't stick, according to camp ad-
vices.
The infield recruits are a much
better lot. There is, for example,
Chick Galloway, former Mackman,
who is ready to jump in at an
emergency any time. Emmer, for
mer Cincinnati Red. also will he
