( 1uth Atlantic League and the &C
.c;jSition of Southpaw Bill Bayne by
t'ee Cleveland Indians. It also dates
] 2cA to Pitcher Wilcey Moore of the
!. rnkees and Outfielder Lloyd Waner
G the Pirates, the former in par
l. liar.
II seems that in 1926 a pitcher by
{ name of Wilcey Moore won thir-
( + games and lost only four in the
+; nth Atlantic. Not one of the
: cres of scouts who saw him in ac-
i believed he had a chance to
Ike the major grade. All turned
j.. negative report.
New York, however, purchased
'Tilcey Moore because Business
f12n&ger Ed Barrow of the YAM
9eS was convinced that any
1i5cher who could win thirty
"ames in any old league, while
oily losing four, must have some
thing.
n AOORE, labeled "bloomer" by
t.3A the scouts, won eighteen, lost
seven and saved perhaps a dozen
I. pre- games for the Yankees. He
Il rs good for about thirty victories
{ n the world champions in the 1927
J. zee.
1t is needless to comment on the
y Nrt that Lloyd Waner played in the
success Of the Pittsburgh Pirates in
Winning the pennant. How he
stepped in and filled the bill when
Manager Bush and his star out
fielder, "Kiki" Cuyler, disagreed and
came to the parting of ways, is a
matter of baseball history.
Now for the Cleveland angle and
the superstition of Manager Peckin-
paugh, as it relates to Pitcher Will
cey Moore and Outflelder Lloyd
Waner.
Last season pitcher, by name
Bill Bayne, stepped into the pic
ture at GreenviIle, S. c., and filled
the shoes of the town idol, Wicey
Moore. While Bayne's record
wasn't quite as impressive as that
of Moore, he turned in twenty
six victories as against ten de-
feats, which one must admit is
some pitching.
MTONE of the big league scouts
" touring that section gave
Bayne SO much as a tumble. He re-
ceiVed no more consideration from
the diamond sleuths than did
Wilcey Moore.
RAPreSident Barnard of the Cleve-
land club, now head of the Amer
lean League, in looking over the
minor league averages, was i'm
pressed by the figures back of
Bayne'S name, showing twenty-six
wins, and landed him in the draft.
The fact that Moore was 80
years of age caused the scouts to
get off him. That's considered
far tcO old to be making a major
league debut.
AQA1 NE was passed up partly 1Or
ID the same reason, too old, also
because the st. Louis Browns held
title to him for about five years be-
fore passing him on to the minors.
Billy Bayne is % years of age, al
most as old as Wilcey Moore. During
his connection with the st. Louis
Browns he always was showing
flashes of stuff that caused that club
to believe he would eventually make
the grade.
Bayne is a southpaw. He's of
average build, about five, feet nine
inches tall, and weighs in the
of 100 pounds. In his
career as an American Lacquer he
always showed a most deceptive
curve.
Perhaps Bayne at 20, like Moore
at 80, after roaming the minors,
finally has acquired the pOise and
confidence that he previously
lacked as a big Lacquer. At least
that is the thought or superstition
to which Manager Roger .Peckin-
of the Cleveland Indians is cling
ing.

off The Blackboard has been
~ conducting a little investiga-
ton to determine whether Tech
nical really will walk off with the
indianapolis sectional champion
ship, unhampered, as the general
trend of fan-opinion seems to be
indicating. Technical, we are of the
opinion, has the smartest ball club
in the county, but will run into
plenty OF opposition in Southport
and Shortridge. Southport dis
played a mighty nice attack in the
county tournament and has been
improving rapidly. Right now the
Southporters, who, it will be re-
membered, annexed the sectional
honorS in 1924, line up as stronger
contenders than Shortridge. The
north siders, however, will be right
there" at tournament time. Grad
ually the Blue and White basket
tossers are making more and more
use of their height and if that bunch
of six-footerS can be rounded into
top shape, it is going to be a hot
three-way battle in the local event.
=
An even then, don't be misled
by our ramblings. TechnicaPs rep
resentatives of the hardwood are
by no means afflicted with an in
feriority complex and will have a
lot to say about just who will be
the sectional champ.

Richard looked. He saw a girl, tall,
slender, dressed in sheath of black
that showed each curve of her figure.
Her hair was cropped close to her head
She wore long green earrings, and
bright spots of rouge stood out on
either side Of her cupid's bow mouth.
She was chain smoking in long jade
holder, lighting one cigarette from an
other. AS though drawn by Richards
gaze, she turned her face toward him,
and then recognized his companion
She half rose In her chair and called,

This sally went round the table. Men

But for the crowd the evening had

pleaded WEAKNESS and tried to leave
them. But Anne chung to him. Bob
urged him, and presently he was in a

other round of drinks on the table.
He refused to dance. and Anne, after

youth by the hand and led him out to

Dear Miss LeedS-O) I have wavy
hair that part on the left side. It is

and a large nose. and would like a
different way to dress my hair. (2) I

pounds. My measurements are: Bust,
80 =; neck, 1914; waist, ~; hips, 80;
thigh, 1914; calf, 1917; ankle, GA. Are
my hips too large and could I wear
belts collegiate style? 90 have a
dark complexion, gray eyes and brown
hair with reddish tinge in it. I have
pimples on my face and for two months
I took yeast cakes that helped a little.
Every night wash my face with luke
warm water and soap and then splash
on cold water. I have enlarged pores

cation, but I think IL would be risky.
don't you? 60 try to make friends,
but do not know how. Is this because
I am homely? Should go to the

hair long enough on the sides to cover

that from the front view you will seem
to be wearing long-hair coiffure.
Since your features are not pretty you
should take special pains to have your
hair always neat and we'll curled. The
natural waves may be encouraged with
water-waving combs. Have the part
come rather high on the left side with
narrow bangs at the beginning OF the
part. Wave the hair rather high on
top. Wear your back hair rather long
and curled into ringlets, or, better still,
let your hair grow so that you can have
a knot behind to balance your nose.
Girls with large noses should avoid the
shingle bob.
(25 Your weight and measurements
are good. Your hips are not too large.
In fact, they are rather slender for a
girl of your height. The high waist
line would suit you. Your ankle is a
bit large.
