Happiness

Once a wise man said: Happiness
grows at our own fresides, and is not
to be picked in strangers gardens"
If you do not find happiness in your
home it is, perhaps, because you have
not planted the seeds of happiness
there. Or. having planted them, you
have not stayed around to watch them
grow.-Grove Patterson, in the Mobile
Register.

Taberski Takes
Pocket Billiard
Title lis to Al

ORCHESTRA HALL, Chicago, Dec.
22-(PJ-Frsnk Taberski of Schnec-
tady won the worlds pocket billiard
championship by crushing Ralph
Greenleaf Of New York 1875 to al in
a playoff match at Orchestra Hall
early today.
Taberski won the title by winning
two straight matches from the ma
tional champion in the play-off Of
the international championship. He
won the first match. 125 10 81.
Both matches were slow except for
a run Of 81 by Taberski. Greenleaf
was far from his usual form and
he termed his play his poorest exhi-
hilton.
Two successive scratches by Gren-
leaf in the second match penalized
him 16 points and IL seemed to take
the spirit from him and after that
he never threatened.

the score was IL TO 0 for Browns
Vile.
DePaul received the kickoff and
after a series Of line plays in which
small gains were made they took to
the aerial route for a 15-ya-d gain
for their first down of the game. rne
Eagles began tearing in and break
ing up attempts TO complete passes
and held the visitors for downs,
forcing them to kick to safety. The
locals were making gain after gain
and the ball was nearing the goal
line as the first half ended.
Opening the second half with grim
determination which they showed
from the start, the Eagles displayed
everything a good football team
does, passing. running and kicking a
field goal. Weller. L rnhart twice
planted their cleats behind the
enemy goal line. Weller showed the
large gathering just how good his
educated toe was whea he booted
a field goal from the 1s-yard line.
TO run the score up TO SO.
The game was witnessed by the
largest and most colorful gathering
ever seer on a south Texas rridiron
field. Three bands furnished music
during and between the halves, and
a neat demonstration was given by
the Brownsville American legion
Drum and Bugle Corps before the
start of the game and between
halves.
The pep squad in between halves
marched on the field and put on
their skit, and as they were circling
the field marched around the visit
ing ~gridders in the lower part OF the
stadium and gave a cheer for De-
Paul.
Tucker Field was fittingly dedi-
Gated, as Harbert Davenport, mem
Der of the local school board, re-
viewed the loyal work of the late
S. c. Tucker. in whose homer the
field is named and who for fifteen
years or more was one Of the most
earnest workers on the Brownsville
school board.
Supt. G. w. Gotke Of the Browns
Vile schools preceded Mr.. davenport
and in a few well chosen words
spoke of the untiring efforts of Mr..
Tucker. and pointed out that the
stadium as it stands today IS a
monument to the late 5. q. Tucker.
Bringing the Chicago eleven to this

when he admitted ne had sent the
kilograms and signed ~Sharkey's name
to them.
Then Johnny Buckley, Sharkey's
manager, entered the arena with n
new set OF cndfges "hieh " icsStNN
against Tex from Boston. He charg-
ed Richard had attempted to buy
Sharkey's contract for 100000 last
summer: that he saw Richard given
Walter Friedman the money to pur-

the Dane, and wound up by saying

isto the south for the match against
Stribling so that the Boston sailor
would be knocked Off"
After denying all these accusa-
tions, Tex added he was through
fooling with S~harkey," and that
Buckley's fear il losing the decision
to Stribling was tacit admission that
he did not think the sailor could
conquer the husky Georgian.
