ACCEPTS
PAY TERMS

MIAMI, Fla, March 14.-The
curtain today was drawn on the
holdout drama being staged here
when Hack Wilson stepped up to
a Dodger contract and said Il do"
An agreement was reached in a
conference with Joseph A. Gill
leaudeau, Brooklyn club treasurer.
No terms we're divulged, follow
ing an old baseball custom.
However. the best guessers in
the Brooklyn camp placed the
compromise figure at $1,000.
last season Hack pulled down
$16,500, and the season before
$33, 1000 from the Cubs. The first
contract sent him during the
winter was $4,000 and the ante
had gradually been tilted. Yes
terday morning. it is understood,
Hack had been offered $10,500
and had spurned the bid.
Hack has been made to under
stand that his future earnings
will be dictated by his own per-
formances. Thus he hopes to
make this a banner season.

FAMOUS MERCHANT
RECALLED BY CIGAR
Big Shot in COuntry's Early His
tory. Founder of College

Stephen Girard, influential finan-
cier of a hundred years ago and
founder of Girard College in Phil
adelphia, inspired the name for
Americas fastest-growing cigar.
For years, Girard cigar was IA
vorite at ten cents. Then, as sales
were soaring, tobacco-costs began to
fall. The manufacturers saw that
Girard could be sold for a nickel.
So they did it-cut the price, but
left the smoking-enjoyment at ten
cents! Girard, today, is actually a
ten-cent cigar for five cents. No
wonder it's pulling ahead of all
others!
Tobaccos from three countries
are blended into Girard. Cool, mel
low, and aromatic, it touches your
taste in the right spot. And talk
about mildness! Girard's fame is
built on the fact that it "never gets
on your nerves." Switch to Girard
today, Men, and learn the meaning
of the word "cigar." Remember
five cents.

Ross and PetrOLLe
Clash at Chicago

CHICAGO, March 14.-For an
interval it looked as if the long
suffering populace was going to

of baShing by Messrs. Barney

LOwder, a Prospect
Two new comers who are ex-
pected to see much service when
the batting gets underway are
Lowder, an infielder who played
with Bluefield College last season
and Lee, pitcher and Shortstop.
Benny Schneider, considered
one of the finest fielding out
fielders on the sandlots in this
part of the South, will perform
with the Printers on Sunday, as
he will play with the Government
Printing Office team during the
week. Ray Homan. third-sacker
of the G. P. o. outfit, will do like
wise.
Mac" Mcpherson, catcher, and
Phil Larson, youthful mounds
man, who were out for the team
last year but didn't stay long, are
expected to make the grade this
season.
Hutchinson in Trim
Norman Hutchinson, for years
one of the best pitchers on the
Printers staff, had considerable
trouble with his pitching arm last
year, reports it to be in fine
shape.
Tuck" Dalglish, who was seri-
ously injured during a league
game last year. also reports to be
in excellent fettle. Dalglish is one
of the best base runners on the
local sandlotS.
The Printers plan to start pre-
liminary practice around April /

EVENT
Rv GINO SINH

''Fair to middlin' bowlers will
get their chance to sparkle Sat
urday when the Greater Wash
ington Sweepstakes gets under
way at Columbia, at 8 o'clock.
The event has been created to
fill in the gap between those
maple plunkers who are eligible
for the Bill Wood Dub" Stakes,
which will go into it's second
block at King Pin Friday and the
all-star events such as the Dixie" )"
Howard Campbell and U. S. Sweep

With the added handicap fea-
ture it will also attract con-
siderable number of those in the
lower StrataS of duckpin- dom, in
cluding many whose best aver
ages are written in two figures.
Bowlers whose best average this
season is under 112 are eligible.

further safeguard against this
type of bowler, the committee re-
serves the right to reject any
entrant, who despite his current
average, is known to be a star" !"
To make it more attractive,
prizes for high game and high
set will be offered for each block.
Entry fee is $5 per man, plus
cost of games. The second block
will be rolled at Lucky Strike
next Saturday with the final set
at Convention Hall on Friday,

In the meantime, Bell is busily
engaged making preparations for
the visit of Nick Tronsky, Con-
necticut's Bambino of the drives,
at this plant Friday. It is not
yet certain who will be Nick'S
partner. but Charlie believes that
1t will be Jack White. However,
Frank Barber is pleased by the
recent showings of Carl Frisk,
and may give the lanky Hartford
ace and Eastern Sweepstakes
champion, a chance to strut his
stuff.
Harrison VS.. TrOnsky
Bell plans to use Eddie Espey
and whip" Litchfield in the
doubles with Paul Harrison
facing Tronsky in one of the
singles and either Espey or Litch-
field tangling with the other in
vader.
Harrison lost heart-breaking
singles match to the hefty New
Britain flash in Richmond the
night before Tronsky startled
duckpin fans by his amazing
2.101 set in winning the United
States Sweepstakes. Paul lost
by one pin, 608 to 607, when he
cut one and five on a last box
, spare.
Espey and Litchfield boosted
their stock as a doubles by their
recent victory over Ollie Pacini
and Red Megaw in doubles.

are busy gathering up stray
"greenbacks" for an entry fee in
the third annual Suburban
sweep stake which opens at
Bethesda Saturday.
The entry fee is $40, which

SPEAKER SEEKS
GR|FF ROCKIES
FOR KANSAS
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent

BILOXI, Miss, March IA.
Iris Speaker, once one of the
greatest center fielders in base
ball. reported" to this base yes
terday in quest of one or two
ball players for his new Kansas
City team.
Iris, who is expected to stay
here couple of days, has not
corralled any yet and, in all
probability, will depart empty
handed as your Uncle Clark Grit
fifth has advised that none of
the present crop of Griffmen are
to be cast adrift at this early
stage of the training grind.
Before we can give, sell or
place any of our material in
the minors, the Chattanooga
LoOkOuts must be considered
claims Griff. "FOr this reason
Speaker won't get what he's
after at this period of our
training season. 1 have ad-
vised him, however, that 1 will
consider handing him player,
or players, if there are any
available after Chattanooga is
satisfied. From the looks of
things, even the LOOkOuts are
going to find it tough to get
what we can't carry this year."
BOKEN DEAL ALL CASH
Griff denied last night that
the Kansas City club was due a
player or two in the Boken deal.
"NO, this deal was absolutely
a purchase transaction" he
said. Besides, l haven't any
players to send them, as I've
said before"
And that's that.
Manager Joe Cronin held an
other of his special" drills yester-
day concerning the better and
smarter ways to play the old
pastime. Cliff Bolton, young
catcher, was again the focus of
the boy pilots attentions.

BRADENTON, Fla, March IA.
World champions two years ago,
the st. Louis Cardinals today
are beating down that familiar
comeback trail. Ripped apart by
bits of dissension and diSSatiS-
faction within their ranks as well
as serious injuries to a majority
of the players. the 1882 cardinals
staggered across the finishing
line in a tie for sixth place.
Thus President Sam Breadon
and Vice President Branch Hickey
went to work to rebuild the 1888
machine. They traded, released,
purchased and threw together a
crazy-quilt combination for Cab

that Gov. Bradford who wrote Of its voyage
day by day, failed to mention the ship by name
or to give any description Of 1t. As the model

ties agree that it is q true miniature.

the voyage were cooked in tripod kettles bake
kettles and frying pans over fires built In

parts of the ship and were used by the differ

Records hint that such foods as dried fish and
dried meats were given little more than
warming. Cabbages and turnips are said to
have been cooked in quantities, and had there
been any potatoes they, too, would have been
boiled in the same way. When the visitor looks
at the model Of the ship, which was said by
different authorities to be of 40 or $50 tonnage,
he decides that the 100 Pilgrim pas myers
must have had an expert packing committee
