Stocks apparently awaited news from the Republican convention at Rochester However, the quiet confidence displayed by the genera! list at the best levels of the cu it advance indicated the belief that the larger questions of policy would be handled in conformity with the views of the national Administration. New highs on the present move were reached by Studebaker at 41% and Baldwin at 124%. while fractional gains were scored by United States Steel, 109 I *, up *4. Sharp contraction in dealings followed up the setbacks which took in the market leaders during Hb morning hours. Sluggishness in the trade pace on the reaction in comparison with the million share volume which accompanied the preceding advance was a promising indication of immediate higher prices. It was obvious that important interests were not parting with their holdings.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Billy Evans Says M*“" 3 AJOR league magnates like close pennant races. They ; make for money. The two big leagues arc experiencing them this year. There is a possibility both races will go to the ! final game before the winner Is determined. However, there is another angle that makes such races detrimental rather than helpful to the game. * • • mN every pennant race where : there are two contenders, a 1 certain team and manager usually stand out as being more popular than the rest of the field. While fandom may be pulling for that particular team to win, it views xvith suspicion any unusual happening that may enable their favorite team to go over. This, of course, is unfair to the player, but the ever suspicious look on the happening in that light. • • Working with the leading con - tenders down the home stretch. I have observed several happenings that might have created gossip lmd they come up other than they ; did. • • mX the final series between Now York and Detroit, the latter team won the first two games of the series on fluke plays. The loss of these two games was a terrific setback to the hopes of the Yankees. Had Noxx r York won the games on such plays, the ever suspicious could hax’o pointed the finger of scorn at the happening. In the first game, Joe Dugan, who seldom makes a bad throxv. made a three-base heave on an infield tap by Ty Cobb, permitting the Detroit manager to pull up at third. It came in the ninth inning with the score a tie. Cobb later scored the winning run. In the second game, Dob Rhawkey, usually very reliable, made a wild pitch in the ninth with the bases i filled that permitted Manush to cross the plate xxlth the xvinnlng 1 un. • • • Since the pennant contender was defeated by loose ploy the Incident passes unnoticed. Had Nex\- York xvon both games in a similar manner, some of the xv!Reacres would he calling the victories gifts, pure and. simple. SHAVE brought up the decisive play in these two very Important games as a, defense of the honesty of the game. It is possible Dugan’s poor throw on Cobh and Shaw key’s wild pitch may cost each member of the Yankees an extra $6,000, the amount pulled doxvn by the world- series winners last year. Big Names on Variety Bills Nina Payne, American dancer, who has for the last three years been ih Paris in the "Follies Hergere,” returned to Nexv York last week to make her appearance in a dance production at B. F. Keith's Hippodrome. Miss Payne was featured in vaudex'llle and rex’ues before she went to Paris, and xvas the toast of both American x-isltors and native Parisians xvhile she xvas in the French revue. Foreign acts are being imported by the dozen by the Keith and Orpheum Circuits to offset the invasions made In the ranks of vaudeville by musical comedies and re X’ues. Among those who arrived in New York last week xvere Boba, an Esthonian boy musician, and Christo and lionald, acrobatic wrestlers. Baseball fans xxill have a chance to see three members of the Nexv York Yankees In a skit on diamond life at the Keith theaters this comlng winter. The three Yankee players who will appear in the act. opening after the world series, are Wally Rchnng, catcher, “Bullet Joe" Push, pitcher, and Penny P,engough, second catcher. The sketch will be called "Aw, Gimme a Chance" and is based on Bengough’s battle cry, coming through the fact that Wally Schning handles most of the regular battery work during the season. Ethel Barrymore, who is rehearsing a nexv play in New York, xviil probably appear for a week at the Palace Theater there soon in her old reliable x-audeville sketch, Barrie’s “The Twelve Pound Look.” Births —-Boyw--Phillip and Lillie Chasman.

The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is more than a vendor of petroleum products. It is an organization of service. When we say that the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is an organization of service, we mean much more than the everyday tangible service rendered our customers through the manufacture, sale and delivery of oil products. “Service” is a comprehensive term. It means anticipating the needs of the public and preparing to supply these needs when the demand comes. 1 The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is laboring day after day to widen the sphere of usefulness occupied by the petroleum industry. It is broadening the field of service which oil products offer to humanity. It is extending the application of exact science in this most fundamental of all modern industries. It carries on continuously a search for knowledge which shall be of value to society. In carrying on this great work, it calls upon human ability in every field; it seizes upon the most daring ideas and labors to make them practical through unceasing effort Problems which presented seemingly insuperable difficulties have been overcome —limitations which threatened to hamper the development of the industry have been removed. Improvements in refining, marketing and distribution have been developed, perfected and put into daily operation. Yet this is but part of the great service rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana;. This generation scarcely can appreciate the role which oil wfll play in the future. Anticipating the demands which will be made upon it the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is attracting to its ranks, men with the training, knowledge, vision and enthusiasm necessary to pioneer in the development of the petroleum industry as it will be tomorrow and in the days to coma The core of Standard Oil Service is in the keen minds of the men who labor in the laboratory and the workshopunseen and unnoted by the public.
