Myra captures this specimen, has him cleaned and accoutred with the habiliments of a gentle- man, teaches him the fundamen- tals of the gentle art of polite conversation and drawing room etiquette and turns him loose up- on her fashionable and exclusive #et, where he is immediately lion- {zed as a London socialist.

'Barnard Knows From the Busmess Sld(’ ; BY BRIAN BELL | oclated Press Sports Writer) | [ (Ace NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—BErnest| Sargent Barnard, named to suc- ceed Ban Johnson as president of | {the American League, probably has a speaking acquaintance with fewer American League baseball players than any club official. Although he has been connect- ed with the Cleveland club for 24 years hs has spent little time in c'ubhouses where personal con- | tacts would have resulted. Most {of his baseball business has beea transacted in the office. He started his career in sport | as a 16 year old football coach and in 37 years, by shifting his ! allegiance from football to base- | ball, has become president of the | American League. “Hard Boiled” Barnard has been called boiled” by some of his acquaint- ances, but his friends insist that| he is only “fair.” He never tried | Ito make a “good fellow” of him-, Iself, but in 25 years of dealing, with ball players none of the ath-| letes who paused for a time in Cleveland and passed on enta:-| {tained hard feeling toward him.! He was more closely assoclated with Napoleon Lajoie than any other player connected with thj)| Cleveland club, During the fiva! years the great Lajole managed {the Indians, Barnard was still traveling with the club and they | roomed together. | His Ideal “Larry” has always been Bar- nard's ideal when people start to talk about the great players of the game. Next to Lajoie, Ty | Cobb was the player for whom he entertained the greatest ad- miration. Only the fact that Barnard saw Cobb first and was prejudiced in his favor kept him from bracket- ing Tris Speaker with him as the ‘“greatest player.” Barnard set him apart with Lajoie and Cobh as the greatest trio he has known | in the game. Barnard has always been an admirer of Ban Johnson's bull- dog fighting spirit. With Umpires As president he may be expect- ed to stand firmly behind his um- pires. As Cleveland executive, Barnard has been proud of his record for fair dealing. | | “hard Baseball ERNEST 8.
