0VOSOA ASA4S ga NAAAAs
It is the outright purchase and
ownership to follow of a big-time
baseball club!
Nothing definite in this con-
nection has materialized for "Old
Barney" yet, but several consid-
erations are in the air-consider-
ations which have possibilities of
being CLOSED" before the ending
of the two big baseball meetings
during the next fortnight.
johnson had little to say on
the subject when accosted last
night. But he did confess that
he might be interested in one
or two propositions, particularly
when chances, in the past, havc
fallen through for managerial
berths-most important, the cases
of the Baltimore Orioles, in the
International League, and the
Cincinnati Reds, of the National
League.
Leans to Association
If the former pilot of the Griff-
men does connect somewhere with
q purchase under his belt, it is
figured that most likely it'll be
In the American Association,
where one or two clubs are open
to do business with an aspiring
purchaser, owner and the like.
Toledo and Kansas City are
two possibilities. The former club
was under the Cleveland Indians
direction last year but is without
a representative owner now. The
later is looking for a new owner.
OF the two franchises, it is
thought Johnson will be more in
terested in Kansas City because
of it being near his former home
out West, and also because the
club can be gotten more easily
in the little matter of finances,
arrangements, etc. Still, the To-
ledo franchise could be gotten if
johnson was interested enough.
New York, Yes
The veteran does not plan at
tending the minor league meet
ings this week. But he says he
has ideas that he may jump up
to New York; next week for the
major league confabs. In the
meantime he says he's going to
keep his eyes and ears open for
any proposition that has it's pos
sibilitieS because he is very,
anxious to continue in baseball
in some sort of capacity a little
while longer.
Whatever he does, it's a safe
contention that many will follow
his destinies and will be both
interested and pleased in where
he lands. There's no doubt about
it the once star pitcher still holds
niche in the heart of all fans
who remember his exploits on
the mound during the years he
was with the Washington Club,
even though he can only be
manager or an owner now.
The future presents this idea
to the baseball world, then. Will
it be Manager Johnson or Owner
johnson? "Old Barney" says
time alone can only answer this
one.

4 BOX
a DAY.
BY BRUCE CATION

THE story of Robert E. Lee has
L been told a great many times.
But biographers keep returning to
it, and they always will, for the
aura of romance and legend clings
about the man, and his name is
sheer magic.
The latest biography, Lee of Vir-
ginia," by William E. Brooks, is an
exceedingly readable and intelligent
piece of work.
Mr.. Brooks tries valiantly to get
underneath the legend and to get
at the man himself-no easy task,
for the legend has been growing
ever since Mcclellan dragged his
army out of the Chickahominy
swamps in 1862.
AS richly human portrait, the
book is marked success. Mr..
Brooks digs into the correspondence
of Lee and his relatives for human
interest touches that round out his
picture, and gives the strictly
military side of the story a minor
place. For detailed analyses of
strategy you must go to such writer's
as Maurice.
Best of all, think, are his clos
ing chapters, telling of Lees life
after Appomattox. Here the
essential qualities of the man are
most clearly visible, and here Mr..
Brooks is at his best.
"Lee of Virginia" is published by
the Bobbs-Merrill Company at $3.50.

NEW YORK, April Good
IN news for husbands, fathers, or
whoever pays the bills. This spring,
when the evening invitations start
piling up, you shouldn't hear so
many feminine complaints OF But
haven't a thing to wear"
Fashion, with her weather eye on
budgets. has made new evening
dresses practical. They're adaptable
to many kinds of events. Easy to
take care Of, too (some can be
washed at home). And still they're
lust as lovely and enticing.
There are many dresses this
spring designed so they're appropri-
ate for both formal and informal
evening affairs. $50 no matter how
the invitation reads she has some
thing to wear)
Slightly shorter lengths are the
fashion, which makes one dress
more adaptable. The same length
ankle or instep are the smart
ones-does for dancing, theater,
dining or anywhere else you go.
Saves wear and tear, too, since it's
not within reach of mems heels.
Dresses Slightly Shorter
Then many-in fact, most
dresses have a jacket that goes with
them, either matching the color and
material or smartly contrasting
with it.
Or, if you prefer it, little cape
is lust as useful as a jacket.
For the more formal affairs you
take off the jacket or cape, while
for less formal ones you keep it on.
Shoulders Are Covered
The fashionable silhouette calls
for wider looking shoulders. That's
made berthas, capelets, epaulet and
cap sleeves in fashion. And all
these details cover the shoulders
making the dress, even without
Jacket, less of the grand opera type.
It's still formal, but more suitable
for the usual run of evening events.
incidentally, a good way to give
a. bare shouldered dress a covered
shoulder newness is to get a large
square of chiffon or crepe, fold it
triangle shape and drape it 'kerchief-
wise over your shoulders, knotting
the ends and fastening it in place
with a large clip.
Even in materials you can be
more practical. For while the sheer
crepe and prints are still fashion,
able, so are laces, that need little
pressing and if torn can be mended
invisibly.
Easy to Launder
Sheer woods and sheer standings,
sturdy materials that stand many
trips to the cleaners.
And-believe it or not-cottons,
especially ribbed cottons like fiat
ribbed piques are going to be seen.
And lots of these can be laundered
at home.
The fashionable silhouette is SIM
pie and straight-an undated sill
houette-which makes a dress less
conspicuous if you have to wear
it many times in one season.
1t molds the figure, as the dress
illustrated. And if you could take
off that contrasting jacket, you'd
find the dress shoulders extended so
the tops of the arms are covered.
