Gambling on baseball games »ill be curtailed this ! season, according to officials of the Chicago National league baseball club, who have started a movement against the practice. It Is claimed that numerous bets are made on tho strength of who the opposing pitch era are to be. This year. Manager Fred ‘Mitchell, declared ho will not announce his pitcher until the time his batting order Is handed to the umpire, just before the game. Manager .Mitchell, whose home is in Boston, declared he knows of nu merous instances in which the wag ers were placed after the pitchers had been selected. He said he also knows of a certain hotel waiter who was paid $5 a day by a gambler, for obtaining from tho visiting manager the name of the pitcher who was to perform for the visiting club that day. "Most of the betting is done In the pool rooms downtown." said Mr. Mitchell, '"and I believe if the pro- prietors of these places do not know who is going to pitch they will not be so keen to accept wagers. By withholding the name of the pitch- ers. I believe much of the gambling will stop.” SPAIN IS INTERESTED « , I I ■a • The Whole Secret of A Better Tire Simply a Matter of the Maker*s Policies This you will realize — once you try a Brunswick—that a super-tire is possible only when the name certifies that the maker is follow ing the highest standards. For tire making is chiefly a mat ter of standards and policies—cost plus care. Any maker can build a good tire if he cares to pay per fection’s price. All men know Brunswick stand ards, for Brunswick products have been famous for 74 years. Formulas, fabrics and standards vary vastly in cost. Reinforce ments, plies and thickness are a matter of expense. And these vari ations affect endurance. It rests with the maker how far he wishes to go—how much he can afford to give. For there arc no secrets nor pat ents to hold one back. • To ascertain what each maker offers one must analyze and test some 200 tires—as our laboratories have done. Then it is a matter of combining the best features and building ac cording to the highest standards. Once you try a Brunswick you will understand how we have built model tires, regardless of factory expense. Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the same as other like-type tires. Our saving is on selling cost, through our nation-wide organization. We realize that you expect more from Bruns wicks, and we assure you that you get it. ONE Bruns wick will tell you the story. And then you’ll want ALL Brunswicks. No other tire, you’ll agree, gives so much for your money. THE BRUNSWICK-BALKE-COLLENDER CO. Portland Headquarter«: 46-48 Fifth Street Madrid.
