couldn't sing much. but she
was sultry and seductive. if

When she had known Ban
a week she asked him to
marry her-just like that. He
mentioned it to Katie the next
day when she came in to
make up his room. 1t was
all very surprising and fiatter-

first girl who had ever pro-
posed honorable marriage to
him. And it wasn't leap year,
either.
Huh" snorted Katie.
"DrusiIla'd leap no matter
what year il was; you can tell
by the face on her" She
dabbed her dustcloth over the
daring likeness of Drusilla,
which currently decorated
Bans chifforobe.
KATIE UNIMPRESSED
Katie was not impressed by
Drusilla's bold looks nor her
safe society background. In
her own young days Katie
Kilfeather knew society with
an upper case S. She had spent
years. before she came to the
San Pedro, as child's nurse
among exclusive old New
York families. Drusilla was
never on the invitation lists
of these families.
But she was a famous
young woman for all that.
Two seasons ago she had
made lavish debut, which

"A friend" is not a certain definite
sort of human being who conforms to a
certain ideal standard of behavior; nor
do friends lust happen to us. through the
mysterious hocus-pocus of love.
A friend is an ANSWER-an answer
to some NEED WITHIN OURSELVES.
We create our friendships. Con-
sciously or unconsciously we choose our
friends to fit certain personal desires. to
compensate for certain personal lacks; and
so our friends are as noble as our own
needs, as fine as our own desires.
How noble is your need? How fine
Is your desire? Why do you really want
that friendship? What do you really ex-
pect from that friend?
At once a charming picture rushes
through your mind. You see yourself and
your friend enjoying a beautiful compan-
ionship guiding each other through the

said Katie when she heard of
it, "a rich girl like that taking

Ban didn't even need to

"She loves Drusilla," he
said.
Then what does she want

CASES OF VITAMIN DEFICI-
ENCY
In other cases of vitamin dap
flciency-scurvy - something
lacking and hemorrhages appear
under the skin and from the
gums. In other cases the blood
platelets are depleted and mas
sive hemorrhages appear from
the bowels and the gums-pur-
pura.
There are many means OF
treating these coagulation or
hemorrhagic disturbances of the
blood. once the correct and ex-
act diagnosis is made. Trans
fusion of healthy blood, OF
course, supplies and replaces the
blood platelets if they should be
deficient.
VITAMIN X
A fascinating new field has
been opened up by the use OF
Vitamin X. as was indicated
above.
We all get plenty of Vitamin
K in our food. but for its alb
sorption it depends on bile in
the intestines. In jaundice. where
no bile reaches the intestine. as
is well known. hemorrhages are
common. That is what has made
hemorrhages in jaundiced pa
tents so hazardous.
Now the surgeon can give his
patients grass juice-obtained in
a form known as cerophyll-
supply Vitamin K. which when
given with bile salts by mouth
renders the dangers of hemor-
rhages negligible.
Grass Juice contains. in fact,
a number of vitamins and miner.
ais useful in blood and nutri-
tional conditions.

By star Correspondent of The Star.

ORLANDO, Fla, March 81
Uncle Clark Griffith welded a nice.
sharp ak and today chopped up
what was passing for his Washing
ton ball squad. With terse, type
written bulletin he broke 20 hearts
and made pennant contender Of
his Piedmont League farm at Char
Iotte.
OF the IA rockies who turned in
their Nat uniforms, more than half
will move directly to Charlotte.
Three will go to Greenville of the
Sally League, two will stay in Or
lando to join the Florida League
subsidiary and six more are sticking
around on borrowed time. Not
until April l, according TO baseball
law, may this half dozen be farmed
out.
Meanwhile the Mats, holding a
flve-game winning streak and a
record Of seven wins in 10 eXhi-
bition games, were on their way TO
Miami for a five-day jaunt during
which they will play the Phillies
tomorrow and the Giants on Sat-
urday and Sunday.
Wolves Converge in Pack.
Late yesterday the grapevine car
ried the word that Griffith was
ready to swing his ak and chop off
little boys heads. In pack, the
wolves converged upon Orlando.
From Daytona Beach came Joe
Engel, president of the Chattanooga
club, and Manager Ki-Ki Cuyler.
John Camel of the Orlando club
put in an appearance. Joe Cambria
fingered behind potted palm. But,
of them all, young Calvin Griffith
was the only big winner.
The adopted son of the Old Fox
and manager, treasurer and presi-
dent of the Charlotte team emerged
with a pair of bright outhelding
prospects, Jim Mallory and Joe Mel
lendeck. In addition he got Teddy
Ratenski, third baseman; Charles
Roberts, a shortstop, and Ray Hoff-
man, second baseman and outfielder.
For pitchers he got Bob Overstreet.
Dick Poydock, Bill Kennedy and
Carlton IWyble.
Greenville got three pitchers, Aga
pito Mayor, a Cuban left-hander:
Phil Mccullough and Louis Truman.
Orlando was awarded Pitcher Joe
Cleary and Second Baseman Jimmy
Robertson, little brother of Calvin
Griffith.

Those who are packed but who

are Pitchers Joe Beck, Hardin Ca

edly will wind up in Charlotte, where
he may win a pennant for Calvin.
Hahn also may return to that team.

CHICAGO, March 27.-The good

Fielding H. Yost says they were

game as played today is "the best
we've ever had, the most interesting
for the spectators and the kind the
boys who play it enjoy most"
Michigan'S grand old man of the

express an opinion on the subject.
Coach for rs Years.
On April 80 he will be 10 years old
and next June 80. at the end of the
academic year, he'll retire as Mich
igan athletic director, post he
has held two decades. AS Michi-
gans football coach for quarter
century, he produced some of the
greatest individual stars and teams
in collegiate football history.

Yost said, football hasn't changed
much over the years. Years ago

Today every team has about 80 OF
them, but there isn't much differ
ence in the fundamentals. To-day
there are lot more good coaches
and a lot more good players, but

Sports Make Money.
Yost, guest of honor last night
at banquet given by the Michigan
CLUB of Chicago, leaves the Mich
igan setup with a deep sense of per-
sonal pride in the part he played
in building up the great Wolverine
athletic plant.
During his 20-year term as ath.
letic director, he said, total revenues
from athletics were S8,742,145. The
school, he said, financed its athletic
program almost entirely from Its
