Idaho Last Foe
For Loggers

Coach Leo Frank drove the
College of Puget Sound Loggers
through a hard workout over a
rough, cold field Wednesday after
noon in preparation for the sea
sons finale with the College of
Idaho Saturday at Caldwell.
The game is expected to be
close, with the Loggers slight
favorites. A glance at the record
book shows that CPS trounced
Linfield. IA 10 S. tied Pacific.
o TO o. and defeated Whitman,
q To o.
Idaho laced Linfield. 10 10
o. but against Pacific and
Whitman the Coyotes were
held even, the score being
g to 8 In each case.
The Loggers seek some sort Of
revenge for the way they were
treated by Willamette at Salem,
Ore. The score. 80 TO o. was
surprisingly large. but a victory
over Idaho would help Coach
Frank forget a thing or two about
the Willamette affair.

the best OF them.
BY HENRY TLFMORE

United Press staff Correspondent
DALLAS - Thank goodness,
The Cleveland Indians have
named a manager for the le4l
season.
Now there won't be any lack
Of amusement for the baseball
fans during the long winter
evenings. They can gather
about the fireplace, stove or
radiator and start guessing who
will manage the Indians in 1912.
/ don't like to scoop my fell
low reporters (as you must
have noticed during the past ~
years. but I have a red hot tip
on Peckinpaugh's successor
From a source who il 50 close
TO the Cleveland front office that
he doesn't fit. have learned
that the following men are being
given serious consideration a.
the Indians pilot season AFTER
next.
l. Mickey Cochrane. former
Detroit manager who is now IN
the automobile industry, but
who is said to yearn for the
good old days of second-guessers'
fair weather friends, and abrupt
dismissals.
2 Babe Ruth. whose followers
still feel he was given a raw
deal by baseball.
3. Bucky Harris, manager OF
Washington, who is said to be
determined to get with a ball
club which has pitchers with
names he can pronounce.
4. The author of Take me
Out to the Ball Game
5. Cy Slapnieka. who has
been managing the Indians for
years.
S. Alva Bradley. president Of
the Indians. who is said TO want
place on the bench so he can
hear player complaints more
readily.
I. Oscar Witt. the manager
who was just fired. The report
is that the Indians dislike VIII
so much they want TO punish
him to the utmost. and the best
way they can think of TO do
this is TO re-hire him and give
him another season on the Cleve-
land bench.
Now that Peckinpaugh has
taken the job for 1871. the eoun-
try shouldn't wait too long be-
fore arranging national cele-
bration in his honor. He had
the Job once before-I think he
started in 1928 and lasted until
he got the pink slip In the
middle of the 1888 season-and
his willingness Ia have another
try merits NATIONWIDE APP
plause.
The hiring Of Peckinpaugh 50
many months before the start
Of the 1871 season was
thoughtful act on the part OF

The head of a nationwide chain
store system denounced TO-DAY the
Patman bill (HR1) to impose grad
uated taxes on individual chain
store units.
Earle c. Sans of New York, presi-
dent of the J.. C. Penney company,
contested, point by point, arguments
advanced earlier before the house
ways and mea committee by pro
p%onents of the measure.
He c%ontended the greatest Of the
chain stores assets were the pool
ing of experience, the elimination of
error, the establishment of success
full methods, and the higher stand
ards of personal accomplishment"
He said he could not conceive OF
the possibility that chains would
ever m~onopolize the retail mer'
chandising field and control prices,
as p~rophesied by some advocates OF
the measure, because the competi-
ton among themselves was too
keen.
He declared that chain stores had
brought lower prices to consumers,
and that enactment of the bill
would increase living costs and deal
a staggering blow to the entire
economic life of this country"
