LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER t PAGE SEVEN fit TF you want the best pipe tobacco on earth, just travel around lookin' for it, then drop into the shop on the next corner an' ask for some vuL,VJbjr. i v. THERE Is No Better Pipe To bacco than Velvet. We hon estly believe that. Smoker after smoker has told us so. Before you agree or disagree, we ask you -to put Velvet to any test that will con vince you personally. Velvet is the best Kentucky Burley tobacco the variety American pipe smokers have agreed to be the world's finest pipe tobacco and the natural qualities of this tobacco have been brought to perfect maturity by two vears or at?ein$? in woouen uosiieuus. j a i several. Minor leaguers know Sutton better perhaps than any person now in the seout business. And they know also that when Larry comes into view they've KOt to trot out the best they have. No one yet has been cnug.it puting one over on the veteran grass comber. He has the eye for young ball players and he rarely picks a fliv ver. All his selections, of course, are ( not doing duty in the big leagues, but most 01 tncm are, ana thnts a bettor record than a great many of them can boast. Larry spends his winters in Newark, N. J., where he reads proof on a news paper. He formerly was a composi tor. He chases over to New York whenever there's anything going on and he usually has the best tips on everything. There are few matters m baseball unknown to him. ' Mathewson's Reds seemed booked for an upbuilding process that will ac complish something besides seventh or eighth place every year.

The upper berth is not, primarily a place of rest. Jt's a gamble. Like ooker. and marriage, and storage eggs. The main idea of the upper is first, to see if you can get in it and second, to stav there till morning without breaking your neck. The chances are $2 a piece and 11HJ to 1 that you lose. If you win you ray the porter a quarter. If you lose, vou pay your own funeral, expenses, Life in an upper is just as calm as life in a bathtub on a flagpole in cyclone. If you insist on trying to sleep in one, put your clothes to bed and hang vourself on a hook. The only right way though is to ap proach it as a purely sporting proposi tion.

Within a short time Ruby Robert Fitzaimmons, for mer middleweight and heavyweight champion, and James J. Corbett, for mer heavyweight champion, are ex pected to reach far back into history, dig up the old moss-covered axe and begin their feud right where it left off. The reason for the mediaeval incli nation is found in an approaching contest between Billy Weeks and Rod dy McDonald, middloweights from Canada. Each of them claims the Ca nadian middleweight ' championship and each has made something of i record. Corbett claims the equal of Billy Weeks of Vancouver, British Colum bia, does not live, while Fitz has se- I lf prl MpTlnnnld t.n enrrv the Fits- simmons standard in coming ring bat tles. Fitz isn't given to raving over youngsters, but after having seen Mc Donald in action the one-time cham pion made the assertion that he ex pected the youngster to capture the middleweight championship. Corbett already has made his state ments regarding Weeks. Now he wants to see the two youngsters get together and decide who is the best picker. McDonald is a native Canadian. Weeks was born in Boston and has spent most of his time in western Canada. McDonald lived near Cape Breton in Nova Scotia. Each weighs about 155 pounds in good condition and each stands about 5 feet eight in ches high. McDonald already has appeared in New York bouts, while Weeks started from Canada to work himself to thh settlement. ' Promoters already are angling for a match between tho two, with prom ise of success. SUTTON HAS THE RECORD TO HELP THE REDS TEAM BY H. C. HAMILTON. (United Press Staff Correspondent.)
