HINES, BALL HERO
OF M'K|NLEY, DIES
Credited With Making First
Unassisted., Triple Play.
Feat Disputed.

Paul Hines, Washington, outfielder
of half a century ago. favorite ball
player of President Mckinley and the
first major Lacquer generally credited
with making an unassisted triple play,
died this, morning at the Sacred Heart
Home in Hyattsyille, He was 81 years
old.
Hines made the play that brought
him fame-and which by the way is
subject Of question-while playing for
Providence against Boston In the old
National League. May b. 1878. Six
years later he came to Washington 10
play right field, when Connie Mack,
manager of the Philadelphia Ath-
letics, was catching for the local team.
Had Government Job.
William Mckinley was a Repre-
sentative from Illinois when Hines
first Started to play in Washington.
Mckinley watched Hines cavort in the
outfield both at the old parks at North
Capitol and G and Fifteenth and H
streets northeast. and Hines playing
without glove became favorite of
the man who later became President.
When the ball player retired from the
game President Mckinley gave him a
Government job.
Hines was married in 1887 and has
one son living in Washington at the
present time. He went to the home
in Hyattsville in 1926 and was blind
and deaf during the last years Of his
life.
Record Book on Play.
Although Hines Is generally credited
play in major league history, the
record book Of Frank G. Menke casts
doubt on the feat.
The first man credited with an un-
assisted triple play prior to 1900 land
the only one) was Paul Hines of
Providence in a game played against
Boston in 1873" this authority says.
However, an account of that par
ticular contest found in the files of a
Boston paper takes from Hines the
glory that has haloed his name. for
over so years. His play, according to
that description, was an assisted triple
play. The Boston Post of May 8. the
day after the game, describes it as fol-
lows:
'Burdock (for Boston, hit a fly
Just back of short. Hines seized it
after a long run. He ran to third
and put out Manning and then threw

Official.

NEW YORK, July 10.-Mary Nolan,
the platinum haired actress known as
Imogene (Bubbles) Wilson in the
"Follies" q decade ago. has capped
her efforts to come back to stardom
with half-million dollar damage
suit against Edward j. Mannix, Metro
GoldwynMayer official.
Miss Nolan charges Mannix with
assaulting and beating her, after liv-
ing with her as man and wife for
several years, and with using his in
fiuence to prevent her from obtaining
work. With respect to the assault
charges the damage suit parallels the
sensational allegations Miss Nolan
made against Frank Tinney. noted
comedian, in her "Follies" days.
Four Allegations Made.
The actress, who recently appeared
in a jackson Heights obscure night
club in her attempt again to put her
name in Broadway's bright lights, set
forth four allegations in her $500. 900
suit against Mannix.
The first three causes Of action OF

Court Justice Peter Schmuck issued

on the relationship between the &C
tress and the Hollywood executive

Miss Nolan avows she and Mannix
lived together for three years in
Hollywood as man and wife after
they met in 1927. In 1880 and 1881,
she charges, Mannix beat her on nu-
merous occasions, assaulted her and
caused her to undergo 20 operations.
Then, when she tried to come back.
and was appearing in the Mastbaum
1heater in Philadelphia, Miss Nolan
charges Mannix used his influence to
