DISCOURAGES PINK
TEAS ON DIAMOND
Doesn't Like Fraternizing
With Rival Clubs.

Fraternizing of baseball players Of
rival teams will be absent during the
coming season at Newfield park, home
of Bridgeport's Bears, If Hans Lobert
and President Fred ]. Voos have any
thing to say about k. This much dis
cussed problem in major and minor
leagues has been settled once and for
all by the Bridgeport clubs heads who
feel that team on the field is out
to win ball games, not for a social
gathering.
Manager Lobert's opinion in the
matter is just reflection of the stand
taken by John McGraw, who claims
that ball players can gather socially
off the field, but on it they should be
enemies, writes Joseph +. Kraynick
in the Sporting News. Lobert claims
that fans who come early to ball
parks gain the wrong impression
when they see players of rival teams
in close conference in front of the
stands and on the diamond.
EARLY arrivals come to see the
players in action just as much as dur
ing "a game and they don't care to
watch a couple of players tell each
other jokes when they should be out
in the field" says Lobert.
"The minute a ball player arrives
on the field the only thing that
should be on his mind is to win that
afternoons game and he should bend
all his efforts to that end by practic-
ing"
Two other teams in the league are
expected to follow this idea, as man
ayers of the Springfield and Hartford
clubs are graduates Of the McGraw
school. The league heads have ig-
nored this and the habit has been
prevalent for several years.
Riding" opposing players, another
important phase in organized base
ball, is another thing that will be
watched by Manager Lobert. In his
opinion this is an important part Of
the game and sums it up as follows
IF any of my players can take the
mind of an opposing batter off his
business for just a second by some
wise crack when the situation is crit
ical then he has done something to
win the game, but rowdyism is out
of the question.

greet them with patriotic exercises.
Although Paul Revere seems des-
tined to go down into history as
midnight rider" and as such will al
ways be remembered by Americans,
the fact is that he had many other
accomplishments which probably would
have made him famous even had he
not made his spectacular journey on
horseback. But how many Americans
know what these accomplishments
were, or, for that matter, know much
more about him than the ideas cleaned
from LOngfellOw's poem? In the first
place his name was not really Revere
at all. He was the son of a French
man named ApOllOS RivOre who Angli-
ciZed it to Paul Revere when he came
TO America to learn the goldsmith's
trade. The elder Revere married De-
bOrah HichbOrn, Boston girl in 1904.
On January l, 1875, Deborah celebrated
the New Year by presenting Apollos
with a son. Perhaps neither father
nor mother realized that this one of
their twelve children was destined to
become such famous man.
Young Paul learned his fathers
trade and eventually became one of
the best designers and mechanics in
gold and silversmithing. Today some
of the most highly-prized possessions
of New England families are old silver
cups, spoons, mugs, tankards, pitchers
and other various articles bearing
beautiful patterns which were designed
and made by Paul Revere Not con-
tent with his eminence in this profess
sion, Paul turned his hand to other
activities. Some one has said she was
the original do ii now man, for he
never permitted himself to get into
a rut. He tackled many tasks and fin
iShed them ALL" For instance, in 1776
he turned to soldering and as second
lieutenant took part in the expedition
against the French at Crown Point.
His trade as a gold and silversmith
led him to experiment in copperplate
engravings and without the benefit of
instruction he soon became the fore
most engraver In America. In fact,
Revere may properly be termed the ia
Their of American cartooning, for his
first production as an engraver was
an allegoricaI representation of the

While flying over the town of Bob

the German gas expert, which enables
a city to protect itself against air at

So through the night rode Paul Revere;
And so through the night went his cry
of alarm
To every Middlesex village and farm,
A cry of defiance and not of fear,
voice in the darkness, a knock at

And a word that shall echo forever

For, borne on the night wind of the

Through all our history, to the last.
In the hour of darkness and peril and
