HERE'S HOPING. CONAIEL

We have had quite crop of youthful athletic mar
vels this year, but the attention of many Americans is
centercd connected with athletics who is
rapidly approaching the famous mark of three score and
ten.
The gentleman referred to is Mr. Cornelius Nc
GiIlicuddy. That name means little nothing,
TO many sport followers. Translated into Connie
Mack it is easily recognizable the name of the noted
went into tie with the New York Yankees for the lead
in the American league and who seriously threaten to
wreck the monopoly on baseball honors held by Babe
Ruth and Company
A unique figure in the world of sports is Connie
Mack An old time player, way back in the early
eighties he has been connected with the baseball for
half century. His famous team Of l9l2-l3-l4 was
recognized as the marvel of efficiency.
Al the top of its fame, in 1914, it lost the worlds
series 10 Boston then under the leadership of the Mi
racle Man StallmgS. Immediately Connie Mack
founded the nation by selling off his stars to anyone
who would buy them, and announced that he going
TO build his team again.
That fourteen years ago. During all that
long period the lean leader of the white Elephants
rs they are often called has tried patiently and
agcousIy to bring his back to its former standing.
Time and again he has been a threat" but never
reality. lie has met encouragement and disappont-
year after year, and has carried on. He IS an
old man now Once he has a chance to take part
in thc greatest sport classic Of the nation.
Millions of Americans will be pulling for his team
to beat the Yankees and then beat the National league
entry, for they know if deserved success
this iovabo character of baseball does.

.SUPPOSING THEY FOOL TSo

Lndbergh, Byrd, the Bremen crew. Chamberlin
all the famous flyers who swept the heights last wear
by flying across the Atlantic, are likely to be shorn of
their laurcls.
1t is within the realm Of possibility that within a
few days they will be made to look like bunch of
'plkerS' to borrow term from the world of sports.
1t is possible but highly improbable The danger
to their prestige lies in the attempt of two German
sailors to walk across the Atlantic.
The Germans have invented a walking machine on
which they propose to right over to New York
1t is operated by pedal power and the inventors pro-
pose to relieve each other every four hours in supply
ing the motive power.
AT this writing the start has already been made
from Hamburg, though the dispatch failed to say Just
how far the hardy advenurers had progressed. Clear
skies and open held bit of promise but the
inventors will need than bit before their venture
is crowned with success.
One should not laugh at the efforts of these men.
Their project sounds hopeless and foolish but every
invention that has succeeded termed in its
early stages. 1t is safe to say, that walking the
water is still little than dream and perhaps may
remain But these inventors at least have the
courage to try and sublime faith in the work of their
brain. 1t is to men like these that the world its
advancement.

CANDY, but which. really, had in it
hot spice.
So hungry for candy was the Bob
Cat, that he put the whole package
into his mouth at once, most i'm
politely, and began to chew it. But
it wasn't long before the pepper,
red and black. began to burn his
tongue. So did the mustard, the

DIR. ANDERSON CASE

Seven of Fifteen Counts
Against Hospital Head
Still Stand.

EA1EiGH, N. c., November 20
Seven counts of the original fifteen in
the bill of indictment against DR.. Al
bert Anderson, superintendent OF the
State hospital, charged with malfeas-
ance in Office, still stood this morning
wi.eA Solicitor L. S. BraSsfeld, last at
torney to present his argument, spoke
to the jury.
Eight of the original counts have
been eliminated because they either
charged offenses alleged to have been
committed more than two years before
the date of indictment, therefore out
lawed under the statute of limitations,
or because no evidence had been sub
mitted regarding them.
Indications are that the case will
get to the Jury before the luncheon re-
cess, as the time allowed Solicitor
Brassfield for argument is limited, and
after that there only remains the charge
of Judge w. A. Devin, presiding, be-
fore the jury will begin its considera-
