By way Of proving that the
spring training season is for
spring training, and not neces-
sarily TO rthe purpose of Turing
money from the natives, the two
major league sthis year have
sliced an even hundred games
from their schedules and have
also cut the period of time to he
spent under southern and coast
suns.
Simply because these annual
jauntS to Florida, Louisiana,
Texas, Mississippi and California
cost more money than they bring
in, the magnates, who are keep
ing the old weather eye on the
red ink column of the lodged,
have sliced several days off their
trips. Consequently the ath-
letes won't have to work so long
for nothing.
National league teams have
booked TIA games for their
training period. The American
league has lined up 166 games,
Checking off rs games which
are inter-league affairs. the two
major circuits will play a total
of 265 games while the athletes
are engaged in working off SUI
perfluous flesh and otherwise
preparing for the long pennant
races which open in April.
Both leagues still lean TOWARD
Florida as the ideal training
spot. Four American league
! teams and five from the National
league do their early work in
Florida. The other four JUNO,
circuit outfits work in Texas
Louisiana, California and Missis'
sippi.
National leaguers are not sc
flighty. Five of them concen-
trate on Florida and three move
tc California for their drills.

CUP).-Mike Ready, who used TO
play baseball with Pop Arson and
Billy Sunday, has had windfall.
Being, al II. the oldest living
baseball player hadn't gotten
Mike very far with the casting
offices. Making a living from the
movies proved a precarious bust
ness. His dues at the Santa Mon
lea Elks lodge were overdue and
there didn't seem much prospect
of paying them.
Mike still has his car. He had
enough gasoline to get him to
Santa Monica and back. So he
started out to plea a moratorium
on the dues.
As Mike was whirling along the
road meditating his troubles. he
heard an ominous roar beneath
the hood that BODIED more i'll for
tune. Repair bills in sight, brood
ed Mike 49,. .. - :.
He examined the tires, the
wheels, the steering gear and the
aXles. He figured, gEoomily. some
thing was wrong with the engine.
Drawing himself under the car,
he was met by gust of wind.
At his feet. wonder of wonders,
were two $40 bills. Mike swearS
|! it's true. He. scooped them up as
he once scooped line drives on the
diamond. 49,.
Mike looked around. Not a soul
in sight. He decided it must be

Mike says he is getting along
fine, thank you.
Girls, take tip from Peggy

"Men don't like to be harried

statement of the astonishing Miss

guessing and you'll keep: his love
didn't do any good for us women.
Miss Joyce, out here to play in

mount. desires TO make no secret
of her views on love, marriage,
romance and such. Since her name
is more or less synonymous with
marriage. her views may be con-
sidered as weighty.
'I'm not engaged now, but I'll
marry again when and if I meet
| another man with whom I car
share love-" she declared. mot to
marry such a man would be pref
tv foolish, wouldn't it?'
And to another question. Peg
gy, how do you do it?' the answer
is absurdly simple. Why should q
woman treat a man differently
than she herself would be treat
ed? Men are naturally attentive
and considerate. Women should
be. Women like compliments, sc
do men. And men are Just a.
quick as women to be suspicion:
