The rain storm stopped the gain after four and a half innings. Free hitting marked the contest. Batteries for the Transportation team were Sorlien and Svendsg: and for the Hardwar Critz Riley. There was a noticeable i crease in atten night. Billy Evans Says i ' Jot down Mr, Weather Man as pennant factor. He will have considerable to-say as | to who will win the 1924 flags in the major leagues. The double-headér menace is ready looming up pig before the eyes of a half-dozen major league leaders. Perhaps no two managers fear it more than Miller Huggins of the Yankees and John MeGraw of the Giants. The leaders of the two pennant , Winning New York clubs must over- come it if they are to repeat. Practically every major league S leader is seeking pitching strength. The staffs of many of the big league clubs are unbalanced. Sev- eral have -eapable first string men, j but none for relief or emergency work. .Some have only one or two first string. men with many promis- ing recruits. Double headers are a great strain on a pitching staff. Proper selection of pitchers must be guided by the rest the men receive between starts. - A succession of double headers often so throws a staff out of routine ‘that it is weeks before it is back in shape ‘and running. smoothly again. It is doubtful if there ever has @ worse spring for baseball ‘than, the 1924 brend.

Thirteen years ago a young man, Ben Hollinger by name, was tramping through the low bush prospecting when his eyes hap- pened to alight upon an outcrop of rock in a desolate waste. He strug- gled over to it, and on examination found it contained gold. Today the Hollinger mine rivals the great mines of South Africa, and last vear outstripped the greatest of j them, the New Modderfontein, which had previously held the anteeing the capital a ! world’s record for gold output.

Fi irst Phonograph History mentions talking ma- chines as early as the Thirteenth century. In 1762 Rev, John Wes- ley states in his diary, be saw at Lurgan, Ireland, a clock with an automaton of an old man, which, every time the clock struck, opened the door with one hand, drew back the curtain with the other, turned Ris head and then said‘in a loud, agticulate voice: “Past 1, 2, 3,” and go ou. The inventor, a man named Miller, told Wesley that he had made many successful experiments and could make a man who could talk and sing bymps, but he was too busy on “other wark. In 1783 Abbe Mical presented fo the French Academy of Sciences an invention that talked, but he later broke it up, having religious scruples. In 1877 Edison brought out his -first talking machine, which, by the way, was first displayed in Paris. The standard of dancing in London is higher than that of any other town or city in the world, experts say.
