"There's just one condition
that / make in this deal. If 1t
turns out sour You must not
laugh at me-"
It was Thomas A. Yawkey
president of the Boston Red SoX
who was speaking. He was in con
ference with Alva Bradley, OF the
Cleveland Indians, and they were
closing the deal that brought Yves
ley Terrell to the Hub.
81 won't laugh" said Bradley,
''but I'm warning you; Yves is a
pitcher, but he is Temperament
tai man and may be hard to
handle"
Bradley hasn't laughed at Tom
Yawkey; not yet at any rate. And
the deal hasn't turned sour. AS
matter of fact, Yawkey has
never regretted the $4,000 OF
maybe it was $4,000 that he paid
for the Red Sox ace who is
pitcher and hitter too.

Terrell is accountable for prob
ably Is games in the Boston vic
tory column this season. He has
won 20 in the box, where he is
supposed to win them. He has &C
counted for at least five more
with his bat. He goes up as a
pinch hitter and clears the fences
with his terrific drives. No, so fal
Bradley hasn't had much chance
to laugh. The chuckle may come
when the contracts are sent out
although that is not likely either
AS a matter of fact, Terrell was
not hard to handle. He had idea!
of his worth and he stuck tt
them. He knew what he wanted
that was all. He was willing tt
pitch for any club but Cleveland
at the salary offered, but hi
wouldn't take the rough end from
the Indians, he said.
Terrell looks forward to win
ming Is games in the box, and Of
course he expects to win at least
ten more with his bat. He will
reach his detectives, without any
doubt. He has the ability.
SOX HERE TODAY
The Boston Red Sox are her
today to battle the GriffS. Tn
latter, be it reported here ant
now are just 112 games aheac
of the hard pressing st. Loui
Browns, who beat the Tiger
yesterday. A victory by the Rex
Sox today and a triumph TO
the Browns would make the lc
cal situation precarious, not t.

Boys, are those Browns

gay CaballerO from Mexico.
"They beat the Yankees, they
beat us and they beat the

Mrs. Ware Faces
Young Rival

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 31.-Mrs.
Glenna Collett Ware won the
first Of her five national cham
pionships when the opponent she
will meet in the title round to-
day was four years old.
The veteran Of the fairways
had won unnumbered golf
trophies before freckled, red
haired, half-pint, pert Patty Jane
Berg was born.
Today Mrs. Ware and the IT.
year-old Minneapolis youngster
will battle SO holes for the ma
tional women's championship
over the tricky 1nterlachen
course,
Battle" is used advisedly, for
while Patty's golf is sound
enough, it is the indomitable
courage that goes with red hair
and freckles and the confidence
that goes with II years, that has
carried her to the final round
of the tournament, through a
field of tried veterans of the
fairwayS.
Four Years Ago
Patty swung her first club but
four years ago. This summer she
won the Minnesota State title,
went to the finals of transmits
sissippi, where she was defeated
by Marion Miley, the Lexington,
KY, star. This is her first
women'S national.
Patty stands but one inch over
five feet, but her turned-up nose,
and her erect carriage make her
look taller. She weighs a scant
lis pounds. but has powerful
hands, wrists and forearms, Civ
ing her plenty of distance. But
it is on the greens that Patty
excels. nursing long puts into
the cup with a consistency ex-
tremely annoying to her oppon-
entS.
Mrs. Ware is an overwhelming
favorite to win today, as she
should be, but the calm assur-
ance of the youngster may prove
clustering.
Yesterday Patty displayed her
courage and confidence by drop
ping 25-foot putt on the 18th
green in her semi-final match
against Charlotte Cutting. Then
she went on to win the match
on the third extra hole by play
ing a par three, while the West
Orange, N. j., star took a five.
Patty was the underdog, as she
was Thursday when she calmly
dropped 45-foot putt on the
18th green to win the hole and
match from Mrs. Dan Chandler
Of Dallas. perennial Texas State
champion.
Hardest Round
Mrs. Ware played her hardest
round of the week yesterday. An
other Minneapolis youngster, Bea-
trice Barrett, 18-year-old daughter
of a Minneapolis professional,
carried the match to the 18th
green, before losing 2 and !. It
was the first time Mrs. Ware HAD
been carried past the fifteenth
hole.
Mrs. Ware negotiated the outgo-
ing nine in par 38, but was only
two up on her youthful opponent,
playing in her first major tourna.
ment. Miss Barrett evened the
match on the thirteenth, but the
Philadelphia won the fourteenth
and went on to win on the seven

pushing Mr.. Raymond Grimmer's car
from in front of his residence when
Mr.. Edward Grimmer appeared and
offered to give him assistance, think
ing he had stalled his machine. When
Mr.. Grimmer recognized his brothers
machine, Mays fled the scene and went
to Fig St., where he stole the car of
Mr.. o. L. Hargis, which was driven
over near the colored school and ditch
ed.
Mays had attempted to get the Ham
ilton machine out of the mud by plac-
ing a blanket under the wheels; the
Hargis machine had no blanket so the
negro cut the padding from the rear
seat and placed it under the wheels
but could not release the car. The
combined damage to the two machines
was probably $500.
Judge w. F. D. Williams stated this
morning that Mays claims to have
been drunk. He is now in the town

rested Sunday by Sergeant Noting
ham and Deputy Ewell while walking

FROM OUR
EXCHANGES
MODERN HOTEL TO BE
BUILT ON DEALS ISLAND

Contract has been let for the con-
struction on Deals Island of modern
hotel, it was announced last week.
The new hostelry will Occupy site
made available by the dredging oper-
atoms and the construction of the sea-
wall and ship harbor at the Island,
and will face on Tangier Sounty.
According to present plans the new
hotel will accommodate around so guests
with parking space for from Is to
100 automobiles.
Designed principally for the use Of
vacationists and sportsmen, the hotel
will be modern in every respect.
Spacious dining room and lobbies will
be open to the breezes of the Sound,
and afford a view from all sides. The
rooms will be well lighted and airy,
and furnished with an eye to the con-
venience and comfort Of the guests.
It is hoped to have the new hotel
ready for guests by July 4th.
Filling long-felt need on the Is
land, the new hotel should receive the
support of every resident of this COM
munity. It is hoped that the erec-
ton of this hotel is but the beginning
of a big development of Somerset
county's waterfront and the develop
ment of it's resort possibilities.
The new hotel will be in charge of
that genial boniface, Albert Anderson,
who, throughout his entire lifetime,
has been connected with hotel work,
under the supervision of his mother,
the late Mrs. May Anderson.
All help in the hotel, as well as all
those engaged in the construction of
the building, will be secured locally,
so that every dollar possible will be
spent with Somerset county people.
1t should be a great addition to the
business and economic life of the COM
munity business and will undoubtedly
mean much to the Island, as well as
as the balance of Somerset county.

APPROACH TO CHOPTANK
RIVER BRIDGE BEGUN

Last week about thirty men start
ed to work on the new road from the
Choptank River bridge to Trappe, a
distance of 4.56 miles. Two large
caterpillar tractors were busy clearing
the way through the wooded areas
along the route originally laid out
by the engineers. The various ra-
vines were also filled in as the first
part Of the work.
Much material was seen going in the
direction of the road, and before long
the grading will be ahead of the road
construction sufficient to gegin pour
ing concrete. This road will connect
the Trappe road at the colored church
with the bridge, and from the blue
prints seen the new road will have but
very few curves.
On the Talbot side the earth was
dug out at the approach of the bridge
last week to meet the grade for the
new road, and as the work progresses
it is believed large crew of men will
be put to work.
The road was held up for several
weeks waiting for the contract to be
signed by the State officials. This
was done last week and Monday morn
ing the first crew was put to work
cutting the wooded areas along the

CLOWNS
WILL PERFORM
AGAIN At FAIR

A. p. c. Craig, local manager Of
the Shell Oil company, announces
that the Shell Clowns will again APP
pear in front of the grand stand
during the midget auto races to be
neld this afternoon and Sunday af-
ternoon. Bernie Griggs. master
clown who heads the troop was
born under the big tent" His great
grandfather was Dan Rice, greatest
clown of all time. GriggS has
trooped with all the great shows
Hagenback and Wallace, Ringing
Bros, Sells Floto and the last six
years with AL G.. Barnes.
When the big shows wintered he
would go south and join the small
wagon shows, The Mighty Hague,
M. L. Clark, and Pogey O'Brien.
Thirty years ago he made towns so
small that only a store, a blacksmith
shop. livery stable and three or four
houses would comprise the settle
ment. Tents were erected, darkness
would fall and bobbing lanterns
would appear on the hilltops. On
foot, horseback, by buggy and wa
gon the country folk would arrive
and the show would go on. A far
cry this from his appearances under
the greatest showmen of all time
that were later made in the capitals
Of Europe and South America.
His father, Herman S. Griggs
thrilled thousands with his leap
over five elephants, four horses and
four camels. His mother, Blanche
Reed. bareback rider of the Reed
Sisters famous feature for IL years
was with the Ben Wallace circus.
Bernie Griggs himself became an
acrobat trained by his father and q
bareback rider through his mothers
teaching. For years he trooped as q
bareback rider with the famous ST.
Icons. But the lure of pantomime
held him and in his clowning he
has used both his acrobatic ability
and his horsemanship.
Engaged by the Shell Oil CON-
pany as an additional attraction at
the Imperial County Fair, the Shell
