When Pete bowling was pitching Tor

by the Cubs for Bowling to sign was
satisfactory as to salary, but it carried

Pete Bowling put on an iron man"

games both wins In the first game,
Pete had the San Francisco club eat

the manager of the Miners, wanted
Bowling to pitch the second game, but
at the time, he and Pete weren't so
friendly, due to the fact that Pete re-
fused to go to the Chicago Cubs.
Wilmot asked Bart Monahan, club
secretary, to see what he could do with
Pete about pitching that second game.
AS Bowling came to the bench be-
tween innings, Bart whispered some
thing in Pete's ear. Pete said nothing
doing"
Bart then told the finger that he
had bet 500 with a fan that Pete
could pitch and win the second game
from the Seals. He offered to give Pete
half the bet.
You're on" said Pete, but I'll do
it for you and the fifty bucks, but
not for Adilmot.'

The distance between Belt and Great
Falls is % miles, or was in the horse
and-buggy days. The distance didn't
mean much to a bird named Hanson,
who in 1905 covered the 22-mile trek
in fast time, not on a bet, nor In
race, but because he happened to be
in a hurry, and couldn't be bothered
with any kind Of transportation other
than leg power.
Hanson was known in that part Of
the state as q distance runner. Com
petition over marathon courses or dis
tances Of less mileage was an old story
to him along Minnesota and Montana
roads.
Jack Collins, Great Falls master
plumber, who later was sheriff Of his
county, happened to be in Belt one
day. He had a fast team Of horses, Of
which he was quite proud. He was
looking for company on the homeward
trip and inquired at stores and the
hotel to find out if anyone was going
to the Falls"
Collins found out that Hanson, the
runner, was planning to walk and run
to the big city. Collins sought out the
Swede and asked him If he wanted
ride.
Hell no" said Hanson. I'm in
Collins thought the Swede was crazy.
Hanson took to the road, Collins
following in about is minutes. Jack
never saw Hanson, though he kept an
eye out to see how the Swede was
faring.
Upon arrival at Great Falls, Col
Inns drove straight to the Gerald cafe. (
The counter was crowded. AS a man
got up from chair, Collins took his
place. The man was Hanson. The
Swede had beat horseflesh into Great /
Falls, and had finished his dinner by
the time Collins arrived
Jack Collins soon afterward traded

CORETTE-EMERY NET DUELs


There was one tennis title that Bob
Corette of Butte wanted to win, and
couldn't. The same story applies Ia
Cal Emery of Billings. The two young
men abandoned Montana university
two years ago by graduation.
Between them they owned titles In
his junior year, Corette won the uni
versity championship. Pitted against
him in the finals was Cal Emery. A few
weeks later the intercollegiate cham
pionship was played at MiSSoula. En-
cry won, having Corette staring him
in the face in the final round.
The next year the university cham
pionship was again fought out by Cor
cite and Emery. Corette won easily.
Emery wanted that title. Then along
came the intercollegiate championship,
which was coveted by Corette. No
trouble was experienced by Emery in
disposing of his opponent in the finals.
Yes, his name was Corette.

Many a wise movie mogul
shook his head in negative fashion
when Jack Warner announced
that his company had purchased
Harvey Aliens vast novel,

for this noddle shaking? Wise"
men of the movies felt that the
story was too weighty, too great
an undertaking, and there was
too much risk in attempting such
a difficult theme.
Jack Warner didn't think so.
After all, these same head-Shak-

"A Midsummer Nights Dream"
They had been wrong. Tiny Di-
rector Mervyn Leroy wanted
most of all to megaphone the i'm

was more than enthusiastic
even after he had spent nearly an
entire year endeavoring to script
the tremendous and lengthy ad-
venture tale.
And SO, the other night, after
many months, the arduous task
was in its complete form. Now
came the tickliSh part-the pre-
view at which the most jaded Of

for one week. 1t will then 60

rangements for a theater will

"Julie the Great" is the work
Of John Taintor Foote, the well
known short story writer. It is,
in fact, based on one Of his
stories, named "Julie," that was
published a few months ago in
the Saturday Evening Post. At
the request of Mr.. Yokel, and after
considerable urging, Mr.. Foote
dramatized his own piece.
Although Mr.. Foote has had
considerable experience in the
theater, having written '"Toby's
Bow" Flying Colors" with John

Dragon" with the late Augustus
Thomas), and several other plays,
he was reluctant to leave his
