SPORT SLAN1S

If Bill McKechnie of the Boston
Bees should be caught in the very
human act of casting envious eyes
in the general direction of the
million dollar kids cavorting
around Fenway Park in the Red
Sox uniforms, One could hardly
blame him. Manager Bill could
make excellent use of some of that
money Owner Tom Yawkey has
been using SO generously to buy star
players.
The situation in Boston is unique.
Here are two clubs bidding for the
patronage of the fans and using
directly opposite means to gain that
end. The Red Sox by loosing the
purse strings, the Bees on shoe
string. The contrast is amusing.
Those Tickle Fans
1t would be odd, indeed, if Bos-
ton fans should decide to string
along with the under-dog, as Am
erican sports followers often delight
in doing, and patronize the Bees at
the expense of the Red Sox. That
would, of course, be obviously UNI
fair to the owner of the Red Sox
for he has made an expensive eff
fort to give Boston winning ball
team.
Then, too, it is possible that the
Bees might finish higher in their
league standings than the Red Sox
in theirs. 1t is possible, though
highly improbable. On paper, the
Red Sox have pennant contender
of the first water but the stars
may not "jell" in the manner that
means victories.
McKechnie's team has everything
to gain and nothing to lose. The
Bees could not possibly be as bad
as they were last season when
playing under the name of the
Braves, they set new modern Ma
tional League record in losing lis
games and winning only 38. Pre-
viously, the mark was held by the
Philadelphia Phillies who suffered
100 defeats in 1923.
/ The Bees leader has managed
by a bit of wise trading, to scrape
together a ball club. And it may
prove to be fair one if McKechnie
gets a few good breaks. If Johnny
Lanning, rookie pitcher from
Knoxville, lives up to his spring
training promise, and one or two
ether youngsters come through, the
Bees may surprise even themselves
Berger the Mainstay
McKechnie is banking heavily on
Wally Berger, and is optimistic
enough to believe that the big out
fielder is set to come through with
the best season of his career. Berger
won the National League home-run
crown with "a circuit clouts last
year but his average dropped be-
low the 800 mark He led the
leagues sluggers in batting in runs
with total of $780, Over a stretch
of IL games he scored IA runs
which must be some sort of a
record.
Berger has been a durable work

Season
Started Sunday

Juneau tennis season was olfic-
tally inaugurated Sunday when sew
eral members of the Juneau Tennis
Club engaged in the first play of the
year. The courts are reported in
need of certain repairs and this will
be done within the next ten days.
New equipment will replace worm
out nets and reels, according to
Charles E. Harland, in charge of the
Improvements.
Later, early in May, Mr.. Harland
said floors of both courts will be
painted and the lines also renewed.
The courts will then be in first
class shape for the balance of the
season.

er for Boston, but he has yet to live
up to the promise he showed when
he first came up six years ago. In
1884 and 1885 he fell shade be-
low the 300 mark for the only
times in his career. If the Bees
show some signs of life he may yet
reach the heights-hes only 30.
The uneven battle being waged
in Boston for patronage will be in
teresting to watch, especially so if
the teams do not perform accord
ing to the advance dope. In any
case, the Boston fans are in for an
interesting season of the national
pastime.

Charlotte Womack and Kath-

vantages Of saving leave in the
Government service.
Saturday. the two pretty work
erS embark on the S. S. Prince
Henry, from the Battery in New
York city, bound for a vacation
that Is the envy of their numerous
colleagues in the office governed
by Acting Comptroller General

stop will be Kingston, Jamaica.
Then they will visit Havana, Cuba,
and Colon, Panama. The spot
farthest south at which they will
touch, however, will be Cartagena,

to describe the two G. A. o. clerks
as excited over the prospects Of
the trip is to put it mildly, indeed.
According to those who work
with her, Miss McLain resembles
Tallulah Bankhead, the motion
picture star, and is charming
personally as we'll as overwhelm-
ingly popular with employees To-
Gated in the old Pension Build
ing. Likewise charming is Miss
Womack, a dark-haired Dixie prod

eral occasions.
The projected jaunt of the two
employees, however, emphasizes the
Importance of saving annual
leave under the laws passed by
the last Congress, as their trip
will require a total of IL days and
still will leave them with suffi-
cient accumulated time off for
emergencies in the future. With a
possibility of 80 days Of accumula-
tion henceforth, many Federal
folk are expected to guard their
annual leave privileges with ex-
treme care, particularly because it
is now a privilege and not a
gift"
