RS S0 00000 0.0.008.06.0.8.0.$.000090600000008ese0e: The Life of Bucky Harris Written by himself, will be published exclusively here in he Foening Star The Sunday She Beginning Monday - January 5th and continuing every Evening and Sunday to its completion “Mine Boy to Manager”’ —is more than the story of a base ball triumph. Itis a homily on suc- cess won by grit and determination — that used defeats as stepping stones to higher achievements. That turned discouragements into victories. That made base ball magnates reverse their judgment and acknowledge his mastery of the strategy of the diamond and his gen- eralship in maneuvers. Whether you are a base ball fan or not, you cannot read the life of Bucky Harris without a thrill inspired by his dauntless courage—and learn a lesson in the possibilities of persistency from his dogged deter- mination. Bucky Harris is more than a hero; he is a model of manful attain- ments—who is now modestly relating the exciting vicissitudes through which he has passed from a humble mine boy at the colliery to the pin- nacle of sporting fame as manager of the winning team in the great- est contest ever waged for the world championship in America’s na- tional game. It is a story full of human interest — that will wring your heart with the pathos of crushing defeat and carry you to the heights of enthusiasm as you read chapter after chapter of Bucky Harris’ steady climb to the top—bringing to Washington the ‘coveted pennant and the cherished championship. It’s the .v;tory of a star—one who knows what it is to make the crowd go crazy as he wallops the ball out of the park and trots home safe when the world championship is at stake. It’s the story of a plugger, who keeps at it, studying his game every day of his life and every hour, in spite of failures in the bush leagues and failures in the big leagues, of hard luck when his club dlsband< and of being passed up by as keen a judge as McGraw himself. It’s the story of a manager who knows how to use his wit and gen- eralship against wise old-timers and bring home the bacon where they never tasted bacon before in their lives. t’s the story of a turn in fortune—of opportunity after weary \earb, and two driving runs in a 14-inning game as a big leabue debut . two runs off Mays, and slammed out with a broken finger at that. . It’s the story of a boy who saved his pennies (and it was cruel ~a\mg) to make a long rail trip to watch an exhibition game—and he didn’t see the game itself because he had eyes only for Donie Bush. Bush, a little man—and Bucky Harris is little; he all but gave up hope that he would ever be big enough to play professional ball. It’s the story of a big brother, a ball player, too, who just laughed when he bunked the kid into losing a game, held the kid’s arms when the youngster tried to fight, and grinned as he said: “Remember, now —always keep your mind on thc game.’ A lesson Bucky learned well. And it’s the story of a mother. A mother who helped. A mother who understood. A mother who had an alibi in the onions in her lap when tears came as Little Bucky, tiny but exultant, gave her $2 in chicken feed his first base ball earnings. The mother he bought a dress for first thing when the scouts took him up. The mother who could share his tnumph even when it was a triumph won on the back lot after working hours. There have been volumes written about Bucky Harris — but no- body knows the real story of this remarkable career as does Bucky himself—and he tells it in the soul-stirring terms of suffered dhap- pointment and the elation of success, in “Mine Boy to Manager.” It begins next Monday---and you must not miss a single chapter Order The Star delivered to your home by carrier 7 Issues a week---60c a month Phone Main 5000 Circulation Dept. 4**4444¥¥¥¥4¥44444¥¥¥¥¥4¥44444444444444444 e XN XN XXX o ot ot b 8 8 8 6 o8 o8 0 o0 0 R o o o R S B D 0 8 8§
