Speaking of Sports
Reformed Red
Infielder Gets
League Award.
By ROBERT McSHANE

a LITTLE more than four years
ago. William Henry Walters Jr.,
tnlrd baseman of the Philadelphia
Fhlllles, was persuaded to forsake
MS Unfolding chores and try a turn
on the pitchers mound.
Today Bucky, right-handed sinker
ball star of the Cincinnati Reds, is
the National leagues most valuable
player, an honor voted him by "a
members of the Baseball Writers of
America, three from each city in
the league.
Had that 1884 suggestion been
made few months earlier ''Bucky"
would have laughed it off. He broke
into organized baseball and climbed
up to the majors as a third base
man. The Boston Braves brought
him up for his first big league
chance, but he failed.
Then the Red Sox tried him, but
again it was no go. AS hitter he
was distinct washOut. He was a
$50 hitter in the Pacific Coast
league, but he couldn't prove that in
the majors.
The Red SoX sent him to Phila-
delphia on waivers. Still he failed
to make any impression on major
league pitching. Johnny Vergez was
holding down the third sack for the

Equity No. $3.50.


The Bill states in substance
that the petitioners are residents
of the State of Maryland and
that they desire the adoption of
Charles Watson Shultz and james
Melvin Shultz, both infants, and
the change of name to Charles
Watson Davis and James Melvin
Davis, respectively.
That the mother of both chill
dren is the petitioner, Dorothy
Lee Davis, divorced from her for
mer husband and the father of
said infants; Roy M. Shultz, by
decree of the Circuit Court of
the County of Rockingham, State
of Virginia, passed August "a,
1882, wherein custody of said chill
dren was awarded to petitioner.
That the father OF said infants
has exhibited no interest in the
welfare of said children and has
not contributed to their support,
but that ever since petitioners
marriage to Benjamin Davis, Jr.
December 81, 1888, the other
petitioner, said infants have been
in the care and custody of both
petitioners and that the best
interests and welfare of said
children will be promoted by
their adoption by the petitioners.
That both petitioners and said
children are residents of the State
of Maryland and Montgomery
County and that the father of
both children is a nonresident of
the State of Maryland and is
believed to be residing in Vir-
ginia.
The bill then prays for the
adoption of both children by the
petitioner Benjamin Davis, Jr.
Jointly with the petitioner Doro-
thy Lee Davis, and the change of
name of Charles Watson Shultz
to Charles Watson Davis and the
change of name of James Melvin
Shultz to James Melvin Davis
and for further relief.
It is thereupon this 31st day
of October, 1889, by the Circuit
Court for Montgomery County,
sitting as a Court of Equity,
ordered that copy of this order
be inserted in some newspaper
printed and published in said
Montgomery County, once in each
of four successive weeks before
the End day of December next,
giving notice to the said father,
Row M. Shultz, or other person
standing in loco PARENTS to either
of said children, of the object and
substance of. this petition, warn
ing him and all of them to appear
in this Court in person, or by
solicitor, on or before the 18th
day of December next to show
cause, if any they have, why a
decree ought not to he passed

Powder Bowl Stars

WINNERS of the first Powder
w Bowl football classic at West
ern State college, Gunnison, Colo,
are eager for new worlds to con-
quer.
Eleven upper-class goods, charm
ingly attired in shorts, tennis shoes,
regulation helmets, shoulder pads
and jerseys, defeated . freshman
sophomore combination Is to 6.
Biggest drawback Of the game was
the girls difficulty in breaking up
huddles. Though the players do not
admit it, reports have circulated
that too much time was wasted In
making barbed remarks anent the
opposition's uniforms, many Of
which sacrificed style for safety.
However, everything is just ducky
from now ON. Alice Shanks, captain
and Quarterback for the winners,
flushed with success, stated,
Il wouldn't be afraid to challenge
the whole world"
Helen Ruth Wilcoxson. 115-pound
tackle. was just as enthusiastic: II
love this football I love to bowl
'em over"
Thanks to assistance volunteered
by members Of the varsity football
team the girls came through with a
wide variety Of forward and lat
eral passes, end runs, line smashes,
rsverses, spinners and kicks. There
blocking and tackling was rough,
tough and effective.

'Hittingest' Pitcher

Though he'll never knock the
leagues leading hitters from their
pedestal, Walters needs no one to
pinch hit for him. Right now he's
the ''hittingest" pitcher in the big
leagues, his lethal bat adding extra
base hits to q large assortment OF
singles to any part Of the field.
To show the esteem in which
Bucky is held, the committee Of "a
sports writer's gave him SOS out OF
a uossibIe total of 1886 votes. His
worth to the Reds in winning n
games was considered such an out
standing contribution to their sue
cess that his nearest rival, Johnny
Mize. st. Louis first baseman, had
only 17S votes. .
Walters is well liked by newspa-
per men. Last July, after winning
the f,rst Of doubleheader from the
pills in Cincinnati, Bucky observed
the second game from the press
coon. During the game he pulled
a brand new ball out Of its carton
