SPEAKING OF BY FRANK GETTY

By Frank Getty Jacks of All Trades When the Philadelphia Athletics! trot out onto the field for the opening! game with Washington next Tuesday,! the players themselves may be a bit confused as -to what positions to take. I President Hoover and other fans ■ who will attend the opener may be diverted by the spectacle of two or three Mackmen reaching for the first baseman's mit and a couple of others trying to don the catcher’s pads. There may he an outfielder in the pitching box and a pitcher in the outfield. For Connie Mack's men arg a versatile lot. Most of them can play two or more positions. It has been said of the Athletics that they can play everything except the Yankees. Take the case of Ossie Orwoll. The Philadelphia roster lists him as a pitcher, but Ossie can shake a leg around the outfield and is a crackerjack firs* baseman, to boot. Or rather, not to boot. Jimmy Fox, who probably will start the season at first base, if he can grab the mit before Jimmy Dykes or someone else gets to it, can go behind the bat at a moments notice, or less. Even Nick Borelli, the newest ar rival, who made good at Muhlenberg, doesn’t know whether to head for the outfield or the infield when Connie * Mack gives the sign. But with all this versatility, it is doubtful if the Mackmen can head the Yankees to the wire. All depends upon their pitcher. Will Bob Grove have another good year and win 24 games for his club? Probably he will, it' his finger heals, for he is one of the real good southpaws in the pitching business. But that injured finger may keep him out of action for some time. And the other pitchers are all uncretain performers. Longer or Better Bouts.. It is doubtful if the demand for lon ger championship bouts stimulated by an offer from Tia Juana, of SIOO,OOO to Tommy Doughran for a 45 round bout w’ith Mickey Walker contains the true solution to the present unsatisfactory state of affairs in the realm of fisticuffs. Jack Dempsey fought in bouts over ten rounds length only three times during his entire career. Thus far, no one has complained about the former

A little display of fighting spirit on the part of the contestants would do nicely. Are the Cubs Over-rated Surprisingly enough, a majority of the baseball writers who are accompanying National League teams on the | homeward trek feel that the Chicago ' Cubs are over-rated and that the New ' York Giants are the best bet to win I the National League pennant. Rogers Hornsby unquestionably will add strength to what already was the greatest offensive power in the 1 National League. But will everything ' go smoothly, and will the team pull together? Some of the boys doubt it. The Cubs, they say, were over-rated before the addition of Hornsby was taken into consideration, and the addition of "The Rajah" Is not 100 per cent profit. o Get the Habit—Trade at Home, It P»vs ''

The "Jud nd Jill In The Box" act by the fourth grade made a very pretty picture on the stage, with the colorful costumes and unique arrangemen's of boxes. "Similar Twins,” by Ith eflfth grade, also was made-up of 'pretty costumes, and drills, dances land songs were given. ' The next act, “Patriotic Greeting", Iby the sixth grade, was portrayed be- | fore a wonderful piece of scenery, painted under the direction of Sister IM. Caroline, with the assistance of I several other Sisters. The scene was the picture of a beautiful home, laid among tall trees and circled by a high I wall. Side wings also finished the details of the stage setting, and the .work was a lovely piece of art. "Boy Scouts and Red Cross Maids," by the seventh grade, was a very ipretty drill and song number. The last number, “The Legend of Sleeipy Hollow," by the eighth grade, marked the climax of the program. The playlet was based closely upon the story, the principal parts being taken by Deloris and Donald Klepper. The play was in two acts, the first being the school room of Ichahod Crane, and the next, the home scene of Herr Von Tassle. 0 McNARY WANTS DEBENTURE PLAN WRITTEN IN BILL (COIVTiNI'BD FHOW rtr.lt OW Intent to the pending bill.
