C, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1925. Arrangements have been con- cluded for the exclusive publi- cation in Wash- ington in The Star--- Firs t.Of a thirty-day series of articles, ® beginning Monday, March 2— giving Bucky Harris’ personally expressed ideas on “How to Pla Base Ball” This series will go into details, telling you exactly what Bucky thinks is the best way to play each position; what manner of man is best fitted to play it—and why. What makes for club, as well as individual player’s, success; and what weaknesses doom both to failure. After you have read these articles you will know what this star manager-player—winner of the most phenomenal world series in history —considers the most important factors in the make-up of a team. S .Following this series will econa: be published once a week, throughout the base ball season to the end of the world series—Bucky Harris’ observations on the progress of the teams in the American League in their race for the coveted pennant.

YOO XX XN XK Bucky Harris Is Going to Keep Star Readers Posted On Base Ball i Nothing of this kind has ever been done be- fore. You will have the opinion of a recog- nized authority—backed by his carefully ex- pressed views on plays and players. What Bucky Harris knows about base ball he has learned in the hard, uncompromising school of experience. As a poor mine boy at a colliery in Pennsylvania he had a burning am- bition to become a ball player. Everything was against him. He was undersize and awkward; but he had the “hunch” and he persevered in try-outs on semi-professional teams; discourag- ing turndowns by big league scouts—until he won. At the age of twenty-seven he was made manager of the Washington base ball team— and piloted it not only to its first pennant vic- tory, but made it the winner of the world series. The youngest manager of a world champion- ship team in the history of the game. Certainly if one knows the formula of the game—its strategies and its tragedies, and is competent to review the work of his cotempo- raries, it is Bucky Harris. The Thirty-day Series—“How to Play Base Ball’—Begins in The Star—next Monday—March 2. The weekly Reviews will immediately follow. The fans will find the base ball news of The Star more interesting than ever this season with Bucky Harris summing up the week’s games. Make your arrangements to receive The Star regularly during the base ball season—beginning Monday, March 2— either through your newsdealer—or by Star Carrier direct to your home. 60c a Month Phone M. 5000, Circulation Dept., for carrier service kK 2 2.0.2.8.0.0.8.0.0.0.0.8.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.8.0.0.0.0.9.0.0.2.0.0.0.8.9.¢.¢ LS
