After he had been away on his solitary journey for something short of two hours exciting news reached press headquarters. “Mehlhorn is ¥ out in 32" were the tidings, with the interesting comment, “He has a great chance to take the lead.” The golf writers started out to find Wild Bill to ask what all the shouting was about could reasonable be exp the first nine holes in i in 271 ‘(llvkl‘\ none could acobt that it was “Wild William"” himself. \ ted to be, especially one Tactful inquiry brought the information He was located on the 12th tee, mad as a golfer | who had played that the wild one had taken 12 strokes on the first two holes L'Oming[ home—conceded himself defeat. This year he has been in and out, but the El Paso event won in record breaking figures, was not his first victory of the winter se: son. He won the Hawaiian Open. POLO GROUNDS GOOD PLACE FOR PRACTICE All last summer when the Giants were playing at field, the Polo Grounds, a big red headed boy came out each after- noon and practiced with the National leagues. He attracted the at- tention of Manager John J. McGraw, and was tqld, “Go up one. He did. In fact, Manager McGraw said the youngster * it.” ~So he was told to “sock” another, and then during the many more. 0 The white thatched leader of the fighting Giants was too busy trying to win a pennant in 1928 to think about 1929, lad to leave his address when he went away and he would send a contract to his Bronx home before the next training camp call was sounded. However, the matter slipped the mind of the manager, and perhaps the boy did not dare presume too much on the kindly invi- tation, so the first snow came with no record in the Giant offices o( ; the redhead who could “sock the ball” in the summer, ‘ Several times during the winter Manager McGraw said to Secre- 1 tary Tierney: ‘ is. I would like to look at him in training camp.” | After the manager went away to Cuba the semi-pro worked up courage enough to drop in at the Giant offices and when he identi- fied himself as the big redhead who could sock the ball he was signed to a contract. ‘That’s why John Kavanaugh is going to San Antonio with the Giants. He is an infielder. L, will not remember his name when e reports in the shadow of the Alamo, but he will know he is the big redhead and he will get pienty of chances to “sock the ball.” their home AmI hit cked summer - JIMMY HAMILTON CHANGES HIS BASE James A. Hamilton, Jimmy for short, for six years manager of the Nashville club of the Southern association, has changed cities and jobs. He will be president of the Canton club of the Central league. Jimmy should be a wow of a president. When simply a manager, with the formality of getting the approval of his president, to bring ball players on for trials he kept the railroads busy. It was said that Jim always had three teams, one playing, one going and one com- ing. few months.

Oh, how good that first one tasted! I'm really keen for Lucky Strike— the toasted flavor is delightful. I smoke a Lucky instead of eating sweets —that’s what many men have been doing for years. 1 think it high time we women smoked Luckies and kept our figures trim.” Grace M.

Lucky Strike, the finest tobaccos, skilfully blended, ti;en toasted to dev lfiu flavor which is a delightful altertmive for craving for fattening sweets. Toasting frees Lucky Strike from impurities. 20,679 physicians recognize this when they say Luckies are less irritating than other cigarettes. That's why folks say: “It’s good to smoke Luckies.” Authorities attribute the enormous VWOIE, | ¢ increase in Cigarette smoking to the improvement in the process of Cigarette man. ufacture by the application of heat. It is true that during 1928, Lucky S%e Cigarettes showed a greater increase than other Ciga- rettes combined.
