Po,oeu No,o Is Mighty Happy
He Didn't Forsate Base Ball
To Pound a POliceman's Beat
BY PAUL NICHOLSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, October ALVIN
M Jacob Powell. who became 20
disgusted with base ball three
a years ago that he wanted to
quit the game for q policemans beat,
was hailed today as the world series
hero of 1886.
Base ball experts, almost mani-
nously, rated the hustling outfielder
who came from. Washington In the
deal for Ben Chapman last June, as
the hero of Yankee heros. Not only
Gid the graduate from Washington's
sandlots lead both teams in batting
with a ASS average and top all the
sluggers in runs scored, but his per.
feet fielding, brilliant base running
and hustle were big factors in the
Yankee drive to the world champion
ship.
Powell got 10 hits in a chances,
drove in runs and scored 8. He
handled IL chances, 2 of them tough
ones, perfectly. Giant pitchers classi-
fed him as one of the hardest men
to pitch to they ever had encountered.
Persuaded TO Change Mind.
IT WAS while playing with Dayton.
Ohio, in '33 that Powell decided
base ball wasn't his line. Discouraged
and disguised, he took the first exam
ination for q policeman's job, telling
his friends: "I'll be q good patrolman
for the law, If I can't be one in base
BALL"
But his friends dissuaded him. sug-
gested he try again, and Powell got
. Job next season with the Albany
Senators. Since that day he has
been a star Of the first dimension.
Manager Joe Mccarthy liked him 10
well that he went against good base
ball advice by swapping him for Chap
man.
Back-tracking the big show:
Giant hero-Jimmy Ripple, the
slugging rookie freshman from Mon
treal. Jimmy kept the Giant hopes
alive as long as they flickered with .
vital four hits, good for . 800 batting
average.
Greatest surprise-The hitting by
the pitchers. Foremost was Lefty
"Goofy" Gomez, who drove in three
runs with two hits-almost rs many
as he got all season.
Gamest player-Col. william Terry,
pilot of the Giants. Bills knee hurt
like q boil all week, but he stayed in
from the first to last out
Greatest boner-It was pulled three
times by Terry. Some one told him

John Barleycorn
Still Hot Issue

Washington-The third anniver-
sary of prohibition repeal find
friends and foes of John Barley
corn battling with some of their
old-time vigor.
J. M. Doran, spokesman for the
distilling industry, hailed the ami
versary as the birthday of "a new
national conscience on the liquor
question"
Prohibition repeal, he said, gave
Jobs to 100000, brought modera-
ton in drinking. Practically elimi-
mated racketeering groups of the
dry era.
Volunteered Edward B. Dunford,
attorney for the Anti Saloon league
which hopes to see state and natio-
nal prohibition restored:
Such statistics as are available
show that consumption of alcoholic
beverages under the pressure of ad-
versising and social convention has
increased while bootlegging is pre-
valent and crime increases.
'1n the administration of the liq-
uor law the major emphasis has
been on revenue rather than on So
cial safeguards"
Treasury figures show that dur
ing October alone distillers produc.
ed 20,29s,744 gallons of whisky,
and had a total of 352,63s,e66 gal
Ions ageing in government bonded
warehouses. If the present stora5 &c
rate is maintained, alcohol admins
tration officials said, by 1888 there
will be an unprecedented supply of
storage whisky-595,247,950 gal

New Homes
Predicted For 1887

That 425,0OO new homes may
be built in the United during 1857,
an increase of perhaps 50 to IS per
cent over 1886, is the prediction
of William C. Bober, head of the
Johns anville statistical research
department, which will appear in
the January statistical issue of
American Builder, it was announ-
ced here.
American Builder emphasizes
that for the first time in history, a
building estimate shows the entire
potential of residential construc>
ton in this country. This was
accomplished by giving proper re-
cognition to building activity in
small towns and rural areas consti-
tuting a large percentage of the
total U. S. volume-activity which
is largely "hidden' because most
statistical building reports fail to
include it and which therefore has
previously been largely overlooked
and underestimate.
In dealing with one totally I'M
practicable circumstance which
may have a bearing on the volume
of construction he says, "In case
fear of initiation should become a
much more pronounced factor
than at present, this figure of
425, 600 houses may become much
higher as cash seeks refuge real
estate"
Before predicting the number OF
homes to be built during the COM
ing year, Mr. Bober made a cere-
full analysis of homes constructed
during 1886, which in view of oul
highly inadequate building figures,
may be roughly estimated at $780,
900.
In arriving at the 100000 fl
CURE, he based his computations On
data collected by the F. W. Dodge
Corporation and the division of
construction of the U. S. Depart
ment of Labor, the two most inn
portant sources of information on
the production of homes in this
country.
