Two straight poles with nails at dif

on the end will enable "you to see how

white and clean that no one minds a

be practiced beautifully on the beach,
and It is a temptation to send clam sheila

6 ft. tall and pretty near as wide and
he is a great left hand pitcher that
don't pitch."' j ; r f ' ; .
Weil l day in May I, had seen a
whole lot of different sporting events
that borea you to death and the
White Sox from old Chi was playing
In , New York city so I thought I
needed a Uttle more boreing and X ;
went out,, to Polo's Grounds .and?
went .down - on the bench, and Mgr.
Gleason was setting-. there and he i
says hello to me, but I Just made a
face at him, but he asked me to set
down a rninute' and 4 boy name Wil
kinson was going to pitch and he
was out there warming up and finer
ly he got warm and come Into the
bench and Mgr. Gleason said:
. :.'Come here and set down a min
ute Wilkie, as I want to talk to you."
;
So Wilkie set dowrt and Mgr. Glea
son said to him: -'j .
"Say listen Wilkie. 'They's a man
on this New Tork club name Ruth
and he isn't Cobb and he isn't Speak
er or, Blsler or Jackson." He's a bird
that If you ever throw a ball where
he can reach it, that bull won't be
available for tomorrow's game and
baseballs costs as much . money as
other commodities jnow days, ao if
you do,n't mind, why when this guy
cornea up there don't pitch him
nothing that he can lay his bat
against it, but roll the ball up there
on the- ground and! I will take the
hitting home runs off of you is to
refuse to pitch when its your turn.
The most useless thing in the world
when, this guy's up there to bat is
the opposing catcher, because if you
can throw ; a. ball past Mr. "Ruth
why it don't make no difference if
its catched or not whereas if you.
try to throw one over the plate, it.
won't never get as far as the catcher.
Park Concerts
Improve With
Each Program
By J. X WaUla J
A MARKED improvement is noted in
jrx. the ensemble or me oyt n""
bend which wasot,ganted by Joel B.
Ettinger for the municipal park concert
engagement this season. . After pfaylng
some 3S concerts and adhering to a
somewhat limited repertoire results are
vastly superior to those obtained at the
beginning of the season when many of
the programs had to be played practi
cally "at sight." 1 -(While
it is to be taken for granted
that every musician engaged" for the
park concerts Is familiar 'with the ma
jority of standard band works and their
technical' difficulties, each conductor ns
his own idea of interpretation and it is
on this targely that agreement has to- be
arrived at before satisfactory result
can be obtained before the public. Even
band concert audiences of today demand
something more than lukewarm, color
less performances. When j , selections
from grand; opera are playedj one wants
the various arias "Sung", with authority
by the particular instruments for which
they have been laid. Unless auch is. the
case, tone and technic count ;for Uttle.
. All of which goes to support the con
tention that the selection of the munic
ipal park band should be made as long
as possible in advance of the season in
stead of a few weeks before .the opening
concert-ha, has been the practice in the
past. Delayed- engagement of the band
not Only prevents rehearsals but alto
makes it difficult to obtain the latest in
band literature, for. without en, engage
men of some';. importance assured the
investment in new popular music for a
large combination . is hardly regarded
Justified. yV , ,v

" htoU the ball up there on the
ground-'
consequences,
sir.
Well they started this game in
the first inning and the White Sox
didn't do nothing and it come the
N- Y. club's turns to get their in
nings and they was 2 out and Plpp
got on 1st. base and along come
Ruth. The next I seen of that two
dollar ball was when it was floating
over the right field bleachers. So
when Wilkie come j in to the bench
Mgr.! Gleason says what did I tell
you and Wilkie said Jt didn't mean
to pitch it where it went.
So the next, time Babe come up
all he got was a 5 base hit cause
they were pitching 1 more careful to
him. Well after a wile it come nec
essary to put in a ! pinch hitter for
Wilkie and little Dickie Kerr was
sent in to . finish the game. Mgr.
Gleason didn't tell Dickie where: to
pitch to Babe because Pickle's what
you might call a old timer, so Dickie
pitched one at, this bird's Adam's
apple and he hit it into the right
field stand for .another home, as I
have nicknamed them. ; - , !
Now. this isn't no reflection -on
neither of these' pitchers which If
hope is. both friends of mine, but, if j
I was manageing a ball club in the j
American League, I would tell them I
how to pitch to this bird. I would j
stand on the mound and throw the i
first ball to first base and the sec- ;
ond ball to. second base arid the third '
ball to third base, and then I would!
turn around and heave the fourth .
one out in right field, because he
couldn't be in all those places at
once and further and more'theys a
rule that makes a batter stand in
the batter's box and if a . person
pitches in that direction with this
guy up why all you can say about
them is that they're a sucker.
For inst. the last time the White
Sox was here, a certain prominent
Chicago baseball writer was setting
next to Col. Huston that owns a.
chunk of the Tanks and this George
Ruth comes up and the Col. says to
him how much will you. bet that he
don't crack one out of the park on
this occasion. So the baseball writ
er says what's the j proper oddsj Bo
the CoL says well' I don't want to
cheat' you and I will bet you' a pt to
a qt. that he murders one. So the
sucker took it and the first ball was
a foul that went into Mr. Schalk's ft.
an the next was a ball and then
the old boy took one right over the
middle for another strike and the
next one hasn't yet been located, but
when last seen was soreing over a
cigarette sign in right center. .
Another way to make bim stop
A couple wks. ago a guy come
here with the St. Louis Browns and
struck the Babe out 5 times in 1
afternoon and, if he is smart he will
let. that gd""down info posterity and
th.e next time they tell him its his
turn to pitch vs.' the N. .Y.- club he
will say he has got a sore arm. ! A-l

The announcement that the railroads
are to be permitted to Increase freight
and passenger rates Is viewed, with
considerable anxiety by those interest
ed in managing the affairs of musical
and theatrical attractions on tour, for
to them it forms a new and serious
problem.
; It is reported that from not a few
bureaus In New York have come warn
ings - that contracts entered Into may
have to be materially altered because
of the Increased cost of travel.
Especially hard hit will be each or
ganisations as the large grand opera
companies and : symphony orchestras,
for the Increase granted Is 29 per cent
fare and 50 per cent for Pullman car
accommodations, a total of 70 per cent.
Industries affected by the advance In
freight . rates Intimate that It will be
for the consumer to pay, and It Is to
be presumed that a similar attitude will
be assumed - by promoters of stage at
tractions. a -
Among new songs published are thrw
by Paclflo Northwest composers that
give promise of meeting with much favor.
These are "Dreaming of You" and "Pear
Old Dad for which the , words were
written py iaa tieue juemaree ana tne
musio by O, Berry, both of Portland,
and "The Golden Dream Boat," poem by
Rdgar A. Ouest and music by W. N.
Alvord of Tacoma. "Dreaming of You"
Is a waits song and its melody Is of the
haunting kind, easily memorised. It has
made a big hit wherever sung. "Dear
Old Dad" Is a comic song of the foxtrot
order and should prove popular on ball
room programs. Alvord's "The Golden
Dream Boat" is a lullaby In slow waits
tempo, introducing bits of old favorite
ballads, so cleverly Interwoven that they
are merely suggested in the melody. It
too, should prove a popular orchestra
number, for which it has also been pub
lished by the composer, '
