 The capricious Rabbit Maranville tried to break Hughie of that habit and if it wasn't that the little Mis- sissippian has fleet pair of legs he might have succeeded.
 After doing turn at second for the Boston Braves the Rabbit, in- stead of dropping his glove behind the bag, tucked it away in his hip pocket, and proceeded to his teams dugout.

Not finding it, he sensed foul play and just as the Giant pitcher was get ting ready to oppose the first bat ter, Hughie yelled for time and raced across. the field to the Braves den. He rushed up to Maranville, spun him around, spotted the glove, laid heavy right hand on it, gave it the customary squeeze and then galloped back to second.

M'CARL AUTHORIZES
$4,000 SEWER JOB
Permits Construction Without
Bid Advertising to Speed
Up Work.

The District Commissioners are au-
thorized TO undertake a $4,000 sewer
age construction job without adver-
tising for bids in order to speed up
the triangle development in deci-
sion made public today by Controller
General McCarl. At the same time,
however. McCarl criticized the Treas
ury Department for failure to give
District authorities sufficient notice
in order that compliance might be
had with the law, which provides
that bids must be asked where the
cost of such work exceeds $1,000.
The construction in question en-
tails relaying of the sewers serving
the old Post Office Department
Building necessitated by the forth
coming addition of a Pennsylvania
avenue wing on the Internal Revenue
Building. The Treasury expects to
have the foundations in by the end
of August and it was said that to
hold up the sewerage work for bids
would delay the building program by
at least two months.
The District will use it's own labor
for the work and be reimbursed by
the Federal Government.
Hereafter notice in such matters
must afford sufficient time to permit
the District government to observe
the law" McCarl told the Commis-
sioners.
