" Al Wilson from Sharples,
L ' W. Va, as running mate
for l-A1nerica Clint Frank this
Fall Coach Ducky Pond says
Wilson is toing to be another Red
eagle Only reason you didn't
hear more of him last season was
because the turf in the Yale Bowl
wasn't suited to his peculiar close
battle-ground style of running ..
This will be attended to pronto.
Under the pretext that the bowl
needs a general going over, the Ellis
will plough it up this Summer and
lay down a brand of sod that will
be right down Wilson's alley -.

THE wonders Martin has wrought in
this his thirty-fourth year South
with ball club, have been little short
OF amounting to miracles. Unbeknown
to President Griffith or Manager Bucky
Harris this Spring he conducted q
study Of tonics. both liquid and tablet
FORM He eliminated remedy after
remedy. Finally he arrived at for
mula designed for Weaver.

New York Americans next season
If the Americans are still in the
National Hockey League >. Those
who know say Gus Mancuso never
has been given enough credit for
the skillful way he handles the
Giant pitchers.
Rollie Schefter, vice president Of
the Portland Beavers, once played
with an italian team under the
name of Schefrano On the
same club, Jack Wilson, Red Sox
pitcher, was known As Wilsona and
Eddie Murphy, the first sacker, wa
billed a signor M,lrfetti.

Bodies BY Martin.

HOGAN'S progress in the other di-
rection has been too we'll followed
to bear repetition. Ever since Shanty
came to camp the writing boys have
been issuing hourly bulletins on
Hogans weight. Goading, encouraging,
prodding. back-slapping, Martin has
driven the giant. The 2S6-pound
Hogan Of last August has lost approxi-
mately so pounds, or more than any
player known to major league ball.
Whether he'll stay down is another
matter, but Martin can take credit
for having done more with Shanty
than any one else was able to do.
Those new-fangled. nine-syllable
contraptions with multiple buttons
may be all right. So. too, may be a
diploma from physical education
college Martin has neither, but you
can't argue with success Bodies by
Martin" 1s no idle paraphrase.
Evening star., 1937-04-06

In 1892 Weaver weighed approx
mately l65 pounds. He fell i'll in 1888
and for the next three years was use
less to the Nationals. He even bounced
to the minors but was reprieved be-
cause Of an acute shortage Of pitching
on the Washington club. He contrived
to last the 1886 season but he weighed
only 1873 pounds and was decided
risk
All last Winter Monte conducted
campaign to build up weight. When
camp opened for him on March he
stepped on the scales and weighed
only lat. Martin approached with
his formula. Monte had nothing to
lose. For four years he had spent his
own money in great chunks to rid
himself of his anemia.
Today Weaver weighs 1el, stripped.
Fourteen pounds in four weeks.

Negro Goes on
Trial for Life
CircumStantial Evidence Strong
in Murder of Young Woman
During Last Month

A mass of circumstantial evidence
so much that the State contends a
confession would be superfluous-
faced Major Green, negro porter,
when he was called for trial Monday
in New York city for the murder of
Mrs. Mary Robinson Case, 25-year-
old former Lancaster, Pa, belle.
A bride, who had taken up resi-
dence in New York less than a year
before, she was found beaten and
strangled to death in the bath tub
of her apartment January II by her
husband, Frank w. Case, who hur-
ried home from work when she fail
ed to answer his telephone calls.
|: Three days later District Attorney
Charles P. Sullivan announced he
had confession from Green, in
which the porter admitted entering
the apartment, bent on robbery.
Latest of the many bits of evil
dence is the story Of Green's wife,
Juanita, as related by police, that
Green broke long habit by not ac-
.companying her home from the
apartment house, where both work.

Fine Progress
Heart Diseases Lead i'm Causes

From Auto Accidents .

The thirtieth annual meeting of
the stockholders and directors of the
Jefferson Standard Life Insurance
Company of Greensboro, was held
on January Is. Langdon L. Scott, of
this city, is representative for the
insurance company here.
Reports from various department
heads and other officials of the
company were heard and then Pres
ident Price presented a general re-
port, which was hailed as indicative
of splendid progress.
II can say without reservation"
President Julian Price stated at the
annual meeting of the stockholders,
Immediately preceding the session
of the board Of directors, "that as
the company commences the cele-
bration of its Both anniversary it is
in the best financial condition in it's
history.
"Our admitted assets show an in
crease of over $5,0OO,OOO for the
year," said Mr.. Price. We have been
very active in the mortgage loan
field during the year, placing 10 mil
lion dollars of first mortgages, and
we show an increase of approx
mately 100000 in our mortgage
loan assets. The substantial decrease
in our policy loans indicates a con-
tinued improvement in the financial
status of our policyholders."
Total income of the company dur
ing the year showed an increase of
approximately 10 per cent over that
of 1885. 49,.
During the past year the compa-
ny's mortality ratio was 59.6 per
