But, if Mickey has to take a cut
lin the equatorial sector because
of appendicitis-the Bengals may
have difficulty maintaining their
fifth place berth Of 1898.
Cochrane's presence is that i'm
portant to the Tigers.
Over the week end the former
pepper box catcher of the Athle-
tics, one of the greatest backstops
the game ever knew, developed
cramps. At the hospital physicians
are trying to determine whether he
has appendicitis, strained abdom-
inal muscle from batting fungoes,
or merely collie.
Bad News
An operation would put him out
of the game for at least two
months, blasting the hopes Of De-
troit fans mad of Club President
Frank J. Navin who acquired
Mickey from Connie Mack to sue
coed the resigned Bucky Harris at
the helm.
With Mickey in the lineup the
1894 Detroits shape up as one or
the ace clubs of the circuit. The
club has youth, speed, bat
punch and excellent pitching. In
addition, the fiery Mickey has in
stilled the long-needed quality Of
aggressiveness. It is a well-bal-
anced club, with only one question
able spot-third base. Even though
they lost four out of six exhibition
games against major league oppon-
ents, they look good in training.
Cochrane figured on catching 125
games, and his 1922 batting will be
a considerable improvement over
the .245 of Ray Hayworth, last
years first-string backstop. Hay
worth has been retained as assist
ant.
Cochrane figures on carrying nine
pitchers. Four certain starters are
Tommy Bridges, Fred Marberry,
Carl Fischer and Vic Frasier
Young Stephen Larkin, a brilliant
recruit from Shreveport, probably
will make the fifth. Two other
starters will be selected from
among Luke Hamlin, Elon Hogsett,
Vic Sorrell and Eden Auker. Fisch.
err and Hogsett are southpaWs.
Worth While
The infield is slated to line up
with Hank Greenberg at first.
Charley Gehringer at second, Bill
Rogell at short, and with young
Herman Clifton from Beaumont
probably beating out Margin owen
for the hot corner. Clifton hit
.sO1 with Beaumont last season
and stole 40 bases. owen IS IN
uncertain health. This is the only
questionable job on the club. Frank
Parker from Beaumont and Hank
Soluble will be other utility infield-
ers.
Veteran Goose Goslin, who came
from the Senators in exchange for
Johnny Stone, is the new man IN
the outfield. At his own request,
he will play left garden instead OF
right. The Goose slumped to .291
in batting last season, but this was
better than Stones .280. Erwin
Fox will be in center and Gerald
Walker in right. Utility men prob
ably will be Frank Dolpack. and
40 10" White.
The Tigers might send out bat
ting order like this: Rogell. .29o;
Clifton 300 (minor); Gehringer,
1875; Cochrane 1872; Goslin .297;
Greenberg, .3O1; Walker, .290; Fox
.2S8. This is formidable lineup
when combined with one Of the
best mound staffs in either league.

Chicago-After five years of
dust-gathering, Jake Schaefer's
1872 balkline billiard crown will be
hauled out from the trophy room
and put on defense when the in
ternational championship tourney
gets under way here March rs.
This tournament was abandoned
after 1929 due to financial difficult
ties, but with the return of better
times, Jake has been called to
defense of the crown he won from
Edouard Horemans, of Belgium, in
1929.
Prior to 1929, winning of this
tournament was said to be worth
more than $1,000 year to the vic
tor. This money was realized
through exhibitions throughout the
country. It's very doubtful if Jake
made half that much with his title
during the last couple of years.
Some of the GUESTS given good
chance to cap Schaefer's headgear
are Willie Hoppe, former title
holder; Erich Hagenlacher, former
German champion; Welker Coch-
ran, Ora Morningstar, and Kinney
Matsuyama, the Japanese star.

THIEF SUSPECTS
ARE ARRESTED IN
THE QUARRY CITY

What should be taken as a warning
by thieves that Sandstone and Pine
county as a whole is no safe place to
ply their trade, is the roundup of
thieves which took place at Sandstone
during the past week. About ten local
and outside persons were unprecedented
and placed in Jail to await hearings.
At various times various communities
throughout this section have been Wis
tied by thieves and few weeks ago
several places in Sandstone suffered
loss at the hands of marauders at
which time guns, ammunition and
other items were taken. 1t is expected
that the recent roundup will be the
last roundup" for some time for sew
eral and will clear up lot of rob-
berries which have been perpetrated
in the past.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

Today, Thursday, one of the most
glittering affairs of postwar Europe
takes place at Westminster Abbey,
London, when Prince George, duke of
Kent and fourth son of King George
and Queen Mary, marries Princess
Marina of Greece; the bride is a
granddaughter of King George the
First of Greece, Danish prince, and
the grOOm's grandmother was Queen
Alexandra of England, Danish prin-
cess, and a sister of the Greek king.
II will thus be seen that the bride
and groom are second cousins, both
being descendants of the old Danish
Ninth and Queen Louise, both dead
many years ago.
War ScareS.
Kings and queens, princes and prin-
cesses, ambassadors and ministers
will gather at Westminster today and
hope to be able, for a moment, to for
get some of the troubles which beset
the Old World. Most of those trOu-
bles are political, military and-arti
fetal.
One very striking illustration of the
way in which war scares are pro-
duced was afforded by France a few
days ago. Somehow, sentiment in
favor of huge additional army budget
amounts had not been very strong
among the members of the chamber
of deputies and among the French
people, generally speaking. Even the
bogeyman of a possible German
"putsch" in the Saar region failed to
stimulate militarism, for it had been
tried before and found fictitious.
So it was necessary to resort to
stronger measures. They were pro-
vided in a report to the chamber by
Leon Archimbaud, "rapporteur" of the
budget, who informed the national
chamber that Germany is building up
an army of at least five and half
million men, ready for mobilization
"at any moment" Even that did not
seem to brighten the deputies into
feverish military appropriation hy-
sterics, but when Monsieur Archim-
baud said that between Russia and
France a secret understanding" ex-
isted-an understanding according to
which the Soviet soldiers were to
rush to the side of France in case
of German attack-the legislators
apparently felt that they had to do
something extraordinary to prove de-
serving of the Russian helpfulness,

EARLY CHRISTMAS
MAILING is URGED

The season of the year is again
at hand when Mr.. and Mrs. Pub
lie must think of Christmas shop
ping. True enough, some have
already thought of this and have
done considerable already, which
is we'll. But the real important
thing is to get the parcels mailed
early.
During the holiday time the
volume of mail increases approx
imately 200 per cent, and it is
physical impossibility to handle
this great mass of mail matter
efficiently and promptly within
few days. Therefore, to assure
delivery of Christmas presents,
cards and letters by Christmas
day the public should shop and
mail early. All parcels should
be securely packed and wrapped
because the strain of large vol
ume of mail is likely to damage
frail packages. Therefore, for
ones own good, the government
postal service advises and urges
everyone to get their mailing
done early.

He farmed for two years from 1895
to 1897 near Finlayson and then
moved to Wyoming state for a few
years after which he came to Sand
stone where he worked as a stone
cutter in the quarries until 1915

KERRICK TOWN BOYS
WIN AT BASKETBALL

The Kerrick town basketball team
went to Willow River last Thursday
evening and bearded the Willow-ites
in their den by a score of 26 to %.
The Willow River boys led during the
first three quarters of the game, but
the warriors from Kerrick had evil
IDENTIFY been listening in to the last
quarter rushes of the Gopher football
team during the fall and profited by
what they had heard, thereby coming
out with the long end of the score
in the final quarter.
The victory must have pleased Ed
die Sexton, because he was able to
lead another team VIGOROUSLY against
the Willow River boys with whom
he formerly played, and this is lot
of fun in any basketball game.

FARMERS DISCUSS
FEED RELIEF AT MEET

About 100 farmers from Dell Grove
township and a few from Hinckley
and Pine Lake townships gathered at
the Jamison store at Grindstone Lake
Saturday evening, Nov. "a, in a fine
get together meeting. The meeting
was called by John Nieboer and Elmer
Johnson for the purpose of getting
some united action on feed relief. A
friendly cooperative spirit was notice
able throughout the meeting. Mr..
Nieboer called the meeting to order
and A. NJ. Price acted as secretary.
After the chairman stated the pur-
pose of the meeting a sharp discus
sion took place, and it was decided
to try to get cars of feed for Dell
Grove sent to Friesland or Groningen.
Further discussion brought out the
fact that cards mailed from Pine City
to Sandstone were delivered on the
routes a day later than on Hinckley
routes. So an attempt is to be made
to have cards from Sandstone to be
mailed sooner.
A committee of five was named to
=
are John Nieboer, Elmer Johnson,
Hans Myrvold, Lawrence V. Ubl and
Charles A. Schwartz. Those having
complaints to make in regards to feed
relief should see one of these men.
it is advised.
Later in the meeting H. Sandell,
secretary of the Pine County Farmers
Holiday Association, made talk and
dwelt especially on a meeting he had
attended on feed relief. Mr. Sandell
advised all farmers to forget petty
differences and jealousies and work
together for the best interests Of all.
Those in charge of the movement
urge the farmers of Dell Grove to
back the committee intellectually
in order to get what feed they need.
Any farmer who has not made appli-
cation for feed should do so at once,
advises A. M. Price. the secretary.
