GEORGE W. GOODE; recruiting officer in charge of the army re- cruiting office at Third and Olive streets, has received an urgent request from the War Depart- ment for the enlistment of 60 young men to be given special industrial and technical training at Valparaiso, Ind. Men qualified in the following trades are wanted: Auto driving and repairing, bench wood work, general carpentry, electrical communication, electrician, forg- ing or blacksmithing, machinist, sheet metal worker. The men will be carefully se- lected and must have a complete grammar school education and two years’ experience in one of the trades listed, or the equiva- Urgent Demand for 60 Young Men for the Regular Army lent. It is not necessary that they be thoroughly expert, but rather that they have genera! intelligence in their line and are judged capable of learning quickly. They must be between the ages of 18 and 21 years. They will be enlisted as sgidiers and in event of failure to qualify aft- er training for the special work for which they are desired they will be assigned to other service. With the thorough training given there is no reason, how- ever, for a young man who ap- plies himself to fail to qualify. These men are _ required to reach Valparaiso between June 1 and 5, and recruiting for this service, therefore, will be closed May 25.

S. 10 BUILD BARGE LINE FOR RIVER —— | Waterways Association Would Have Delegation Urge Pro- cedure on McAdoo. Preparations are being made to have a delegation of at least 100 business men, representing every state and large city in the Missis- sippi Valley, meet in Washington 7 next Thursday and call upon Direct- , or-General McAdoo to urge the im- | 7, mediate construction of a Govern- 'ment-owned barge line on the Mis- sissippi River between St. Louis and New Orleans as a war measure and Ai in recognition of the dock and wharf work already done by river cities in : anticipation of such a line. This and the unanimous adoption | | of a resolution demanding the estab- lishment of a lower river water route, were the two most important developments of the first annual con- vention of the Mississippi Valley Waterways Association, which was } concluded at Hotel Statler yesterday afternoon. 15 or 20 From St. Louis The decision to send the delegation morning session yesterday, after Jackson Johnson, president of the Chamber of Commerce, suggested that this would bé the quickest way to get Government action.’ Betweén 15 and 20 St. Louis business men, headed by Johnson, will leave here next Tuesday or Wednesday to join the delegation in Washington. It is probable that the party, when it calls upon Director-General McAdoo, will be accompanied by Senators and Congressmen from Mississippi Valley states. Under the so-called railroad bill, the Director-General of Railroads is empowered to expend any part of a $500,000,000 fund for development of inland waterways. The delegation which will call upon Director-General McAdoo wilil point out that much of the freight congestion at New York and other points on the Atlantic seaboar4 would be eliminated through the op- eration of a barge line on the Mis- sitssippi River by diverting the war material and foodstuffs produced in the Middle West, from East-and- West rail routes to the port of New Orleans. Senator Reed, in his speech before the convention Tuesday, said that a recurrence of the coal short- age of last winter could be prevented next winter by the operation of 2 barge line. Thousands of freight cars would be released, he explained, and these could be used to hauling coal, Shapleigh Elected President. At the final session A. L. Shap- leigh, chairman of the board, of the Shapleigh Hardware Co., was elect- ed president of the association to succeed James A. Smith. Others elected were Sydney J. Roy, Hanni- bal, Mo., s@cretary-treasurer, and M. J. Sanders, New Orleans, vice presi- dent at large. The following district vice presidents were chosen:. W. T.

Twenty cases, appealed from Po- lice Court, were dismissed by Judge Krueger in the Court of Criminal Correction today following a motion to quash by John R. McCarthy. an attorney, in the case of Thomas Ken- nedy, fined $200 on a peace disturb- ance charge. The total fines lost to the city in the dismissal of the cases is $1372. The dismissal is the outcome of the failure of the City Counselor's office to notify the Police Department that the new Wagner code, approved by the Mayor April 12, carried an emergency clause and went immedi- ately into effect instead of requiring the usual 30 days to be effective. The police made charges under the old code, which has been discovered to have been obsolete. Judge Krueger's action probably will defeat the appeal of the city in the case against Harry Schula, chauf- feur of Henry S. Priest, made fa- mous by the appearance of Judge Priest in Police Court. Judge Priest obtained the discharge of his chauf- feur in Police Court by employing his Supreme Court legal battery, but overlooked the opportunity to obtain discharge on the ground McCarthy discovered for his client. a * New Manager Taken Charge of Wur- litzser Store. James B. Moran, formerly secretary and manager of the Conroy Piano Co., who cn Tuesday became manager of the Wurlitzer Co., 1109 Olive street is having the Wurlitzer store re- modeled with a view to the installa- tion of ww large wmtock of automatic pianos in which the Wurlitzer com- pany specializes, many hundreds of the instruments having already been placed in St. Louis homes.

Moran was with the Conroy company 14 years the last eight as secretary and mana- ger. He is widely known in &t. Louls plano trade and music circles.

THE TANK? TEDDY.—M. M. Baker, vice pres- ident of the Holt Manufacturing Co., has explained that it was ma- chines made by his company at its Peoria plant which hurdled Ger- man trenches, walked through for- ests and crawled over shell = ores in the face of intense “We have sold about 3G cate caterpillar tractors to the British Government,” said Baker. “We have had nothing to do with putting armor on them, or placing machine guns, but some of our men at Aldershot, England, were notified that the British Gov- } ernment intended to armor some of the tractors and use them for work other than the usual towing of big guns. Germany had some of these tractors before the war begah and, although I do not understand just how it occurred, I- believe she may have got others since then. We have sent some to France and some to Russia, So far as I know, up until the recent appearance of the motor cars, the tractors were used only to two guns. [I understand that Germathy used about 40 of them in this work before Liege early in the war, and recent photographs show that the British are using some of them now for the same purpose. It is true that these tractors can. go over almost anything or through al- most anything. It looks uncanny to see them crawl] along the ground, like a huge caterpillar. In a thick forest, if they should encounter trees, which they could not brush out of their way, they could easily be used to.uproot them and clear a path.” Baker said the tractors sent to England weighed about 18,000 Ibs. each, develop 120 horsepower and are built of steel. The caterpil- lar feature, he explained, is of the utmost importance, Speaking broad- ly, the tractor crawls on 2 belts, with corrugated surfaces on either side of the body. The corrugated surface is on the ground. On the inside of the belts, on each side of the body, are 2 lines of steel rails, making 4 lines in all. These rails are in short sections, jointed and operated over a cogged mechanism that actually lays them down with their belt attachment as the trac- | tor moves ahead and picks them up again, so that the car runs on its own self-made track continuously. The short joints in'the rails make it easy to turn to right or left. The) body is supported by trucks with 5 wheels, something like small rail- road trucks. These wheels never touch the ground, but run upon the steel] rails. In the ordinary tractor about 1 ft. of belt and ralis is on the ground at one time. Baker said the machine would bridge any trench that was not wider than the length of the track it lays on the ground at one time. The “bow” might hit the far side of the trench far below the top, and the “stern” would undobutedly sink a little, but the tenacity of the tractor,“he de- clared, would enable it to go ahead and climb out.

JOSEPH PULITZER... April 10, 1907. _ LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ee i ; “Honest John Hogan.” Te the Editor of the Post-Vispatch. On May 13, 1858, just 60 years ago, I landed in the city of St. Louis, The Ohio & Mississippi Railroad was just completed. At that time one of the most distin- guished men of the State of Missouri lived on the corner of what is now Grand and Von Versen avenues. He owned a large tract of land 600 feet east of Grand ave- nue to 600 feet west, to what is now Sarah street. He was instrumental in the laying out of Grand avenue from the river on the - fMorth to the river on the south; he wanted the avenue’ 100 feet wide, but this was opposed and it was made 80 feet wide. This same gentleman was Postmaster of St. Louis from 1857 to 1861. He also be- came a member of Congress at the election in November, 1864. This same gentleman succeeded in getting an appropriation of $14,000,000 to improve the rapids at Keo- kuk, Io., while in Congress. He laid in St. Louis the cornerstone of the first Jew- fish temple built west of the Mississippi River. A library which he presented to the public schools is named for him. He gave the street from Grand avenue to Sarah through his property, also half of Delmar, also Vandeventer and Sarah ; @treet. Some years later he sold 25 acres to J. B. Kaime, and when the city wanted to.improve this street, he, Kaime, claimed it as his, so the gentleman who had given it went down to the city hall and made a deed of this whole street, about 4000 feet in length, to the city without any compen- sation. This street was named for himeelf, and his name was John Hogan—called “Honest John Hogan.” *“ Bome years ago a City Council, not hav- ing the fear of God, or regard for man, the name of this street to Morgan % changed gtreet. Recently this same Council changed Morgan to Von Versen, and now they want a to make another change. Now, why don't they call it Hogan avenue? It never should 3 changed. been ohn Hogan was one of the great men of Missouri; he had no peer. I could men- tion many other things he did for St. Louis £ and our public schools, but this will suffice. 7 te, SIMON L. BOOGHER, 6319 Berlin avenue. Honor First Red Cross Nurse. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. z > e | reference to renaming St. Louis streets now having German names, in hon- or of some of our war heroes: In a letter recently received from one patriotic citi- ’ _ Sen, having read the account of the recent of Mrs. Katherine Woodfin Cecil, the Red Cross nurse of this city to give life for her country, suggests that one be renamed “Cecil” in her honor. gave her life nursing Uncle Sam's sol- and ‘to perpetuate her name and by naming a street for her would ting tribute to the great sacrifice she and the willing service she rendered a oe a3 iH Slackers. of the Post-Dispatch. that a man with a suspended not serve in the army, or can- his country? @ craps shooter and “boo gets drunk and wants to have a “shooting up" a negro house or gete a suepended sentence, and it him from being drafted, of which he Still, he has every other right that citizen has and continues to drink # ay 7 Wa cs Mi aids kA wes Soe Ee ee TEERO to er ee RP Ne Mee tye yt ne MAMA 7 IAM SE Med BO URW EY MOIS vm ae ¥ wie oye Pit ag ad i | . ; a ah > deer? . ‘se y : H ; - e p ia the very place for DEFEND THE CITY’S RIGHTS. The avoidance of strikes and the maintenance of service are the prime necessities of the street railway situation in the city. The pledge of in- creased wages for employes must be fulfilled with- in a reasonable time. In view of the critical labor situation, the in- sistent statements of the company’s officials that | fair wage demands cannot be met without addi- tional revenue and the State Public Service Commission’s decision to the same effect, Mayor Kiel would be wise not to attempt to set aside the fare increase order by injunction proceedings at this time, unless he has an effectual substitute to offer. The Mayor, however, should take steps to de- fend in court the rights of the city with regard to franchise contracts. City Counselor Daues de- nies the power of the State Commission under the Constitution to change fares fixed by franchises. His view is supported by two out of five members of the State Public Service Commission. The city should get a decision of the courts on this im- portant point. In the light of developments the clause in the new franchise passed by the Board of Aldermen and signed by the Mayor, practically conceding the right and power of the State Commission to change fares, becomes a wanton surrender of the city’s rights and powers. Unfortunate as the present situation is, and hard as the increased fare bears upon the pop- ulation, especially the wage earners of St. Louis and its suburbs, it is not to be compared in ca- lamity with the granting of an unsatisfactory franchise which will enable the United Railways to continue its disastrous exploitation of the city for 31 years. The increased fare order is an emergency meas- ure, contingent upon experience and a thorough examination of the company’s finances and opera- |. tion. But the franchise will be a continuous eyil for a generation. od = = a CLEAN UP, PAINT UP. It was wisely decided that St. Louis should have a continuous “clean up and paint up’’ campaign this year instead of a mere week set aside for the purpose. It is to start May 20 and every business concern and household in the city is expected to participate. ; It is a fine thing for any city to be as spruce as paint and soapsuds can make it, but more im- portant things are at stake than tidiness. One unpleasant thing that no St. Louisan should forget is that our city has an unenviably high death rate from tuberculosis. And, as a bulletion of the National Association for the Study and Pre- vention of Tuberculosis truthfully remarks: ‘The scrubbrush, soap and water, paint and whitewash are deadly enemies of tuberculosis.” | The prevalence of the white plague in any city is not merely a misfortune. It is a disgrace to that city, because tuberculosis has ceased to be a nonpreventable disease. The one preventive is cleanliness, but it must be universal cleanliness. It is the civic duty of every individual to do his share. ' Another thing St. Louisans should remember and that is that the annual fire loss in our city is higher than it ought to be. We compare favorably with other cities in this matter, but there is vast room for improvement. Fires frequently start from rubbish accumulated in outbufldings, cellars and garrets. Part of a general clean-up plan is to do away with the dangerous rubbish pile. Uniform co-operation in the clean-up, paint-up campaign is as much a civic duty as paying taxes. = = * vw SS ’ LETTERS FROM HOME. Major-General H. C. Hodges, commander of Camp Beauregard, La., has written to the Gov- ernors Of Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas, from which states most of his soldiers are drawn, asking that the Governors assist him in getting a message to the mothers and sweethearts of the soldiers. Gen. Hodges says that it is his experience that a majority of the desertions are explained by the footnote on a letter, “I want to see you; please come home.” The writers, he says, mean that the soldiers shall get furloughs, but these are not always obtainable, so the men go anyway. The result is arrest for desertion. Gen. Hodges explains his admiration for the courage of the women of the South in previous trials, and he knows that they do not realize the havoc their requests make. He says that the women who merely make use of this phrase as an expression of sentiment should keep before them this pic- ture: : | “The sight of a prisoner wearing ball and chain is a pitiful one in private life. That of a soldier being driven to unpleasant duties of a prisoner under guard is just as shocking, but it is not an infrequent sight in this camp. The greatest number of the reasons for this predicament are letters written by the folk at home imploring him come to them.” nd so he asks the state executives to ask the women of their states to keep their letters cheery and to be as brave as their foremothers. ° = = a oe Who'll be the first to go over the top in the spring charge on the straw hat counters? = = — a. aes TRIFLING WITH THE SUPREME COURT. The constitutionality of the selective-draft law was unanimously affirmed by the United States Supreme Court early last January. The Justices wasted no words in argument. The unquestioned power of Congress to declare war necessarily in- cludes the power to compel citizens to render mil- itary service at home or abroad or wherever the war can best be waged to resist invasion or repel aggression. To deny this would be to deny that the United States ig a nation or in possession of the sovereign of a nation. Some particularly disputatious pacifists, how- ever, have since then sought to narrow down that decision of the court to the draft itself as distin- guished from the power to send the drafted men abroad. They have failed quite as ridiculously as the other complainants failed. Their habeas-cor- pus proceedings in stoppage of sending a drafted Missouri soldier to France were promptly thrown out by the lower court, and this action has as promptly been sustained by the Supreme Court. This must mean an end of the attempts to bring the draft law into question. If they are not in- inspired bya disposition to trifle with the courts and the sovereign. powers of the nation as exer- ciged, by Congress. . | MORE WILLIAMS OF WIED. In the process of keeping localized the danger- ous issues arising during and subsequent to the Balkan War, a process which taxed Europe's pa~- tience for many months, Potsdam and Vienna were permitted to dictate the selection of William of Wied as hereditary. Prince of Albania, which was erected into an independent state under the treaty of London, May 30, 1914. Perhaps no ruler or would-be ruler of modern time appears in a more ludicrous and humiliating light. “His people” did not want him. Europe outside of the Teutonic Powers did not want him. His first Cabinet went to pieces in a few days. One of his principal Ministers, Essad Pasha, promptly organized a rebellion against him. He once had to take refuge on a warship in the Adri- atic because of the hostile manifestation of “his people,” but was persuaded to return and managed to hold out until after the general European war began. He fled ignominiously from the country on Sept. 3. Now the Hohenzollerns and Hapsburgs are pre- paring to raise up more Williams of Wied. They have selected Teutonic princelings to rule Lith- uania, Courland, Esthonia and Poland and, with the help of the hyphenated element in the Finnish population, hope to provide still another William of Wied for Finland. Their teriure may be a trifle longer than that of their prototype in Albania, but it will be short at best. This selection of Teutonic rulers for petty states is now too clearly recog-, nized as a part of.the German reptile system to be tolerated further by the allies. It is a part of that system which has already brought unac- counted woes on Europe. , It was because of ‘his sarcastic comments on the Albanian situation. that George Fred Williams, the silver leader of Dedham, Mass., lost his job as Minister to Athens. Indeed, George Fred as- serted after his return to this country that he could have been King of Albania himself, had he wanted to, but that he rejected the crown the Albanians offered him. How much water has run under the bridges of Europe since! American sarcasm on the several Williams of Wied in Lith- uania, Courland, Esthonia and Poland would gain tributes for patriotism and sound judgment rather then censure for an indiscretion. a 4 +s » ww Se REGULATION WHICH HELPS. Excise Commissioner Lewis’ order to the brew- ers to dismantle vacant saloons under thelr con- trol, so that the premises can be let for other purposes, and his request that they discontinue the }.ractice of loaning money to saloon keepers to he used in cashing pay checks, are interesting, but his announcement that the brewers are pleased with his order and request and will cheerfully comply with both is more interesting. . The attitude of the brewers toward an action which might have been expected to arouse their opposition, is an evidence that, under the stress of competition, policies become established and piactices are followed which ara of doubtful soundness as a business proposition and as dis- tasteful to the brewers as to the public. Among these, it would seem, is the scramble for presumed strategic advantage in holding lo- cations and maintaining intact vacant saloons to keep a rival organization from getting posses- sion of the property. It is nut difficult to under- stand why the brewers welcome the action of the commissioner, Who stops the scramble in a manner fair to all concerned by ordering such places dismantled. And it is difficult to imagine the brewers finding fault with the request to cease loaning saloonkeepers large sums for the cashing of pay checks. Both the policy of holding locations and loan- ing the money to. the saloonkeepers have been continued because each brewing association feared to lose advantage by abandoning either. The Ex- cise Commissioner is making good use of the au- thority of his office when he helps brewers to end evils growing out of the keenness of competition which they deprecate but cannot eradicate, be- cause of the very conditions which create them, without the commissioner's help. a, Ap Ae 7-~ Fre FIRST AERIAL POSTAL ROUTE. At 11:30 a. m., on May 15, an airplane piloted by Lieut. Torrey H. Webb left Belmont Park, N. Y., with mail pouches for Washington, D. C. At 11:45 a. m. on the same day an airplane pilot- ed by Lieut. George L. Boyle left Potomac Park, Washington, with mail pouches for New York. Thus the first aerial postal route between Washington and New York which, like the origi- nal telegraph route between Washington and Baltimore, is the forerunner of a similar service between many, perhaps all, the important towns of the country, was inaugurated. Of course the comparisons are made which are usual when a notable improvement in facilities of communication is recorded. A Senate utter- ance is unearthed which referred with pride 86 years ago to the reduction to 36 hours in the time of letter transit between New York and Washington. To further reduce the time to about five hours was a work of many years. The airplane achieve- ment which cuts this five hours in two is really of less importance than the achievement which ultimately cut the time from 36 hours to 5 hours, but is nevertheless very interesting. We may re- member that when practical means of conyeyance have already developed what we consider under existing standards a very high rate of speed, to increase that speed by 10 per cent even, to say nothing of 60 per cent, ordinarily involves a very difficult and costly advance. : A postal airplane route between St. Louis and Chicago should, of course, be next established. As such routes are multiplied, the effect on the business of the telegraph will become apparent. To engage for a few weeks in the service might be made the final period of training for military airmen prior to their departure for France, a very valuable training in long-distance flight it ought to. prove, too. : A car carrying mail matter is officially called a “ratiroad postoffice.” Doubtless an airplane carrying mail matter will become an aeria) post- office. If an average of 10,000 or even 5000 letters is carried at a postal charge of 24 cents, each spired by disloyalty they are to be considered as round trip will add materially to postal revenues.

Perhaps there's further—tragedy.” I knew what was in her mind. That if Vicky hag done the thing, she might have, in an agony of re- morse, taken her own life. Thrilled with this new fear, I fol- lowed Lowney and Mrs. Reeves. We went downstairs frat. We exam- ined all the basement rooms and the city back yard.

Everywhere the most exquisite appointments of silver, crystal and embroidered fabrics, and a bed fit for a princess. It seemed profanation for the little detective to poke and pry around in ward- robes and cupboards, though I knew it must be done. He was not only looking for Vicky, but noting any- thing that might bear on her disap- pearance. But there was no clew. Every- thing was in order, and all just as a well-bred, refined woman would have her belongings. ; The bedroom was over the dining room, and back of this, over the pantry, was Vicky Van's dressing room, 12 dressing table, chiffonier, robe chests, and jewel caskets were all in keeping with the personality of their owner. The walls were paneled in pale rose color, and a few fine pictures were in absolute harmony. A long mirror was in a Florentine gilt frame, and a chaise longue, by a reading table, bespoke hours of ease. Q | Ruthiessly, Lowney pried into everything, ran his arm among the gowns hanging in the wardrobe, and looked into the carved chests. Again no clew.

And if the lady doesn't show up, we must examine the stuff.” On we went to the third floor of the house. The rooms here were un- used, save one that was evidently Julie's. The furnishings, though sim- ple, were attractive, and showed a thoughtful mistress and an appre- cjative maid. Everything was in or- der. Several uniforms of black and of gray were in the cupboard, and several white aprons and one white dress. There were books, and a work basket and such things as be- tokened the life of a sedate, busy woman, We left no room, no cupboard un- opened. No hall or loft unsearched. We looked in, under and behind every piece of furniture, and came, at last, to the unescapable conclu- sion that wherever Vicky Van might be, she was not in her own house. Downstairs we went, and found Coroner Fenn and Inspector Mason in the hall. They had let Dr. Rem- son go home, also Garrison and Miss Gale. The waiters, too, Had been sent off. ; “You people can go, if you like,” Fenn said, to Mrs. Reeves and my- self. “I'll take your addresses, and you can expect to be called on as witnesses. If we ever get anything to witness! I never saw such a ease! No criminal to arrest, and no- body knows the victim! He must be from out of town. We'll nail Mr. Steele tomorrow, and begin to get somewhere. Also we'll look up Miss Van Alien’s credits and. business ac- quaintances. A woman can’t have lived two years in a house like this and not have somebody know -her antecedents and relatives. Mr. Steele brought his friend here, and then, when this thing happened, he savas scared and Lt out.’ “Maybe Steele did the killing,” suggested Lowney. “No,” disagreed Fenn. “I believe that Dago waiter’s yarn.: I cross- questioned him a lot before I let him go; and I’m sure he’s telling what he saw.

CHICAGO, May 16.—Jess Willard, holder of the world’s heavyweight fight championship, left this city today for his ranch home near Lawrence, Kan. in the ring. He is quoted as having said: “Since they have seen fit to stop my fight with Fulton I will never battle again. I wanted to fight for two reasons: First, to help the war fund; secondly, to see if Fulton had the stuff to take my title from me. “On every hand I have been un- justly condemned and told to go to France to fight. I am far above the draft age and have a large family. When my turn comes I'll shoulder a gun, too. I have offered to fight for the Red Cross and to give every cent of the receipts to it, but I was turned down. I also intended to give my share of the Fulton fight to war charities, but they stopped that plan. “So I am through, as my honest Before departing he told a Chicago newspaper man who has been his close friend that he had fought his last fight and would not again compete efforts to help have been laughed at.”’ Willard says he is nearly 40 years of age. He won his title April 6, 1915, from Jack Johnson at Havana, the only title fight in which he has participated, before or since becom- ing champion. In over three years he entered the ring but once. That was in 1916, when he received $55,- 000 for fighting 10 £no-decision rounds against a man 650 pounds lighter than himself. It is estimated that in .his circus ventures he has made a fortune of $300,000, chiefly due to his drawing power as the world’s greatest fight- er. He made enough’ money in two years to buy out the entire circus, which he has since leased or sold to the Government. Washington Wins Longest Game in A. L.in 3 Years Wild Pitch Loses Hurling Duel for Williams Against John- son, 1-0, in 18 Innings. ‘The longest game played in the American League for the past three seasons was staged yesterday, result- ing in a 1—0 18-inning victory for the Nationals over the White Sox. In 1916 and 1917 the longest battle in the A. L. was 17 innings, with the Browns participating in each of these clashes. In 1916 they went 17 innings to a 0—0O tie with the Red Sox and last year lost to the Yan- kees, 7—5. Only 18 players took part in the game yesterday, which probably is a record. Walter Johnson and Claud Williams each went the full route, the former giving 10 hits and strik- ing out nine, while Williams yielded only eight safeties.

With Myers turning in a five-hit game, the Athletics gained a 3 to 2 victory in 13 innings over the Indians.

T admit a deal was mentioned to me but I did not assume the initiative in the matter.”’ This dismisses for the present, va- rious and sundry reporte circulated about Cardinal Field .that the Knot Holers were involved in a trade which would bring an American League out- fielder to the club in exchange for Packard. The rumors started with the appearance here of Bob Connery, scout for the New York Yankees. Rickey claims premature publicity halted the transaction. Connery still is in 8t. Louls, but Rickey'’s statement leads to the con- clusion that the deal, “if there was one,” as he says, is off. Rickey still claime to have several matters in mind which “might affect the per- sonnel of the Cardinal club,” but says he ia not yet ready to announce them.

MISS BROWNE 10 TRY FOR TENNIS TITLE THIS YEAR Former Champion Writes That She Hopes to Compete Against Miss Bjurstedt. WON RED CROSS SERIES In 26 Matches Against the Title Holder in 1917 California Girl Won 16. 7 In a letter to the Post-Dispatch an Eastern tennis authority writes that Miss Mary K. Browne of Cali- fornia, national champion in 1914, expects to compete for the national title this year. He states that Miss Browne had recently written to a member of the United States Lawn Tennis Association Executive Com- mittee that she had not retired from the game and was eager to regain her hold on the championship which she relinquished after 1914 by re- tirement. Miss Browne is trying to make arrangements to compete m the national women’s championship event at Philadelphia next month. Miss Browne is known in St. Louis, where last year she appeared in con- nection with her Red Cross tour with ’YMiss Bjurstdet, the Norse title hold- er—a trip that yielded nearly $75,- 000. Miss Browne was called from this city by her mother’s illness before her scheduled match with Miss Bjurstedt in singles could take place. But they appeared in doubles as op- ponents, greatly to Miss Browne's advantage, according to expressions of opinion heard among the gallery. Miss Browne Has Advantage. In fact, Miss Brown is unofficial champion, if the Red Cross series of 1917 be a criterion. Miss Bijurstedt, the titleholder, met Miss Browne 26 times, and 16 times the California girl took the measure of her oppo- nent. In their 26 matches , the rivals played 540 games, Miss Browne win- ning 282 and Miss Bjurstedt 268 games. Park Tourney Opens. Play in the men’s tournament sin- gles division of the Forest Park Ten- nis Association opens today. The first round must be completed by Satur- day and the winners must report Sunday and play as far into the tour- nament as possible. The following pairings have been announced: Davison Obear vs. H.

Entries for women's singles and doubles may also be made Saturday and Sunday. The women's events will begin one week later. Husband-Wife Tourney. New York is exploiting a new idea in the tcnnis world. This is the husband-wife tournament, in which married couples enter as teams in a mixed-doubles event. It is even pro- posed to have a national champion- ship husband-wife tournament. A good guess at the world’s cham .- pionship pair, if euch an event were promoted, would be Thomas Bundv and Mrs. May Sutton Bundy. As May Sutton, Mrs. Bundy won the world’s championship for women. With Mau- rice McLoughlin, Bundy won the world’s doubles championship several season's in succession. LEFFLER IS ELIGIBLE TO COMPETE IN HIGH SCHOOL TRACK EVENTS Dean Leffler, star athiete of thé McKinley High School track team, was declared eligible to compete in the coming Interscholastic track and field meet at a meeting of the officials held yesterday at -Central High School.

Philadephia fans experienced a se- vere attack of Frigiditis of the Foun- dations, following © 1917 wreck- ing of the al wrecked world’s champions. In their minds the sale of McInnis, Strunk, Bush and Schang was like substracting nine from four, leaving minus five representing the team’s strength. In. vain Connie lifted his hand ma- jestically and tried to etill the popu- lar wrath—the heehaw was the bert they gave him. Whereupon Connie shut up and went his way. : He picked up three players from the Red Sox; he bought Burns froru Detroit, and sandwiched in a young- ster* or two, abstracted a pitcher from George Stallings—George salé it was a steal, but it wasn’t—and to- day we find Connie with a club that might run second in the National | / League. oe Not So Bad, Bo.

Pratt had one of his bad days, while Gedeon, Nunamaker and Shocker picked out the occasion to do their very best. The former Yan- kees drove in four of the five runs credited to the Browns, Nunamaker hitting in the winning marker. Pratt, after making only one safety in five ;attempts agafnst Shocker, was taker out and replaced by Fewtser. However, on performances yester- day, one need only go as far as Gede- on and Pratt in an effort to find that the Browns out-traded, out-gamed and out-everythinged Miller ie wer: s in the shift that sent Derrill New York. Gedeon made two hits in four attempts and drove in a run; while in the field he handled eight chances cleanly. Pratt hit. 200 and had four assists. One of Gedeon’s smashes went for two bases. He also tallied a run. | Former Yankees Slug the Ball. Nunamaker and Shocker, with their hefty batting averages for the day, proved mere extras. Nunamaker batted .750 and Shocker .600. Be- tween them the trio made eight of the Browns’ 12 hits and scored two runs. The swat mark was. 615. With Mali- sel, who went hitless on one occasion thrown in, the figure falls to 571. Urban Shocker, starting his second game of the season won, which is all that is needed. But Urban did not show in his best form. He was hit for nine safeties, four of them comin in the first inning, while he walk 10 batters—a record for the season. Shocker managed to keep the Yan- kees from hitting when runners were in @ scoring position except in the first and ninth, when Huggins’ men scored all their runs. Here Is the Evidence. The men sent to St. Louis by Hug- gins also did their share in the fleld- ing, handling 20 chances without a slip. Following are the figures on the players: Gedeon ....... eo Nunamaker Shocker In landing the verdict, the Browns chased Slim Love, who has been the winning pitcher for the Yankees this season in four innings, while they also pounded Ray Caldwell, who replaced him.

For, after dismantling all that seemed good of a club that finished last, in 1917, he bobs up with a team that pleases. Accord- ing to the ‘“‘dope,” Connie’s club ought not to be better than a class A contender. Mack’s bacon was saved by his ri- vals, the Philadelphia Nationals, who sold Alexander, and Killefer. The Philly fans have not forgiven that deal, chiefly for the reason that the Quakers’ management has not attempted to strengthen the team with the proceeds of the sale. ao « ° The Bravest Man.
