Swanson Young Cincy Outfielder Clouts Ball Well in Early Games. DALE HELPS DETROIT First Sacker Drives in Many Tallies. BY GEORGE KIRKSIY t nitrd Frfjs Staff Corr.-pondmt NEW YORK. May 20—The two prize rookies of 1929 are Evar Svanrcn flashy Cincinnati Reds’ outfiplrier, and Dal'' Alexander, giant first-baseman of the Detroit. Tigers. •Jack Hendricks, manager of the Feds, think.-. Swanson will develop .nto on*' of the really great outfield- ■ r of all time and is extravagant in his praise. The Reds bought Swanson from ••.e Mission 'Pacific Coast Leaguei r ;b. where he batted .346. Swanon is leading the National League n base-stealing with eight to his credit and is hitting well above .300 Tigers Get ‘ Breaks" Alexanders heavy hitting has been one of the reasons for the early success of the Tigers. The it r 215-pound Detroit fim-sacker is 1 ishing his team-mate. Harry Heilmann. for American League honors v the runs-batted-in- column. The latest averages reveal that Heilmann :.• driven in twenty-n’ne runs and Alexander twenty-sevt n. Alexander’s batting average aas .321. Detroit has been the most fortunate major league team with its i mng players, having picked up ti ree regulars. Besides Alexander, Fd Phillips, former Toronto catcher, and Rov Johnson, tho $75,000 San r-ancisco purchase, are holding down regular berths Another San Francisco outfielder who is making the major league made is Earl Averill. Cleveland center fielder. Averill has shown himself a hard hitter, a flashy base runner and a ball hawk in the outfield. Hoffman to Get Job Clarence Hoffman, who played o ith Sacramento last season, has been playing well as an alternate outfielder with the Chicago White Fox and Johnny Mosul's injury probably will give him a regular berth. Few young infleiders have made good. The Reds have a good looking player in Joe Stripp, a third baseman. Charley Gelbert is fielding sensationally for the Cardinals, but has been hitting poorly. Larry French, 21-year-old southpaw from Portland, probably is the outstanding young pitcher of the year. He has won three straight games for Pittsburgh. The Pirates a'so have a promising hnrler in Steve Swetonic.

Helen Wills, Extended by French Girl, Leads Americans to Victory ■Little Poker Face’ Scores Three of Four U. S. Wins in International Tennis Series.

By United Press PARIS. May 20.—Although Helen Wills was extended to the limit by a frail, blonde French girl in a singles match, it was the superlative play of the California girl which enabled the United States to defeat France, four matches to three, in an international team series. Miss Wills won two singles matches and with Edith Cross, her California doubles partner, won the deciding match Sunday by defeating the French team of Mme. Mathieu and Mme. Lafaurie, 6-2, 2-6, 6-4. Not since Miss Wills was beaten by Suzanne Lenglen at Cannes in 1925 has she been at such a disadvantage as faced her in the first set of her match with Mme. Mathieu.

Trading drive for drive with the American champion from the baseline, Mme. Mathieu had the gallery in a frenzy when she led Helen, 6-5. Only by bringing every resource into play did the California ace win the next three games and the first set. Mme. Mathieu continued her hard driving in the second set, but Miss Wills played invincible tennis and won the set-, 6-0. In the other two singles matches played Sunday, Mar.iorie Morrill of Dedham. Mass, beat Mme. Klein - adel. 10-8, 3-6, 7-5, and Miss Cross lost to Mme. Lafaurie, 6-3, 9-7. The other three matches were played Saturday, Miss Wills chalking up the only United States victory.

Sampson purchased it, planning to drive it himself. Sampson, who also owns the car which Lou Meyer, the ruling American champion, will drive, is the youngest racing magnate at the track. Last year Sampson purchased the car which Meyer drove to victory. This year he promoted a second car for his string. “But next year,” declares this slender young man, “I’m going to drive myself.” De Palma was leading the race three miles from the finish in 1912 when his car broke up and he was thrown out of the race, but e won in 1915.

Never a day passes but that the Konjola Man, who is daily explaining all about this new medicine at Hook's Dependable Drug Store,

Illinois and Washington streets, this city, hears of another remarkable accomplishments of this new compound. Day after day, year in and year out, a never-ending stream of happy, sincere indorsements, praising this new medicine for the relief from suffering—new health—it brought, keeps pouring into the Konjola files, until they are filled almost to overflowing. Different from all other medicines, Konjola is designed to attack the very cause of the suffering at the source, and to act as an aide to Nature in removing that cause. It is not made to give mere temporary, fleeting relief. It contains no alcohol, no nerve deadening drug, no heart-de-pressing chemical. It is an honest medicine, a medicine that Nature herself might recommend. All it asks is the chance to prove its merit—results will speak for themselves. Does it not stand to reason that what Konjola has done for one it can do for others, for you? Read then, of the happy experience that Miss Grace La Compte, 431 Nortli Illinois street, this city, had with it. Miss La Compte recently made the following statement to the Konjola Man: “I feel better than I have for a long time, and I owe all this new health to Konjola! For the past; year my health had been falling. My condition in general was rundown. I was always tired and nervous. I lost my appetite, and did not enjoy the food I forced myself to eat. Naturally, I did not get my proper nourishment. I was subject to dizzy spells, and was bothered considerably by the appearance of black spots before my eyes. I just felt weak, tired and worn-out. I felt sure that if I did not soon And something to correct this condition, more serious complications were likely to follow. “I had read so many good reports about Konjola, and so many people were recommending this new medicine that I decided to see if It might not help my condition. Well, it did! I cannot praise this new medicine too highly. By the time I had finished the second bottle I knew that I had found a real medicine. I have now used six bottles, and feel better than for years. That tired, worn-out feeling is gone. My nerves are calm, and my appeite has improved wonderfully. I enjoy my meals, and benefit from what I eat. lam no longer bothered by dizzy spells, and the spots never appear before my eyes. I feel immeasurably better! I owe ail this new health to Konjola, and I hope that my experience will help others to find their way to health!” Another glorious victory added to Konjola’s already surpassing record! Is there any wonder Konjola is called the master medicine? The Konjola Man is at Hook’s Dependable Drug Store. Illinois and Washington where he is meeting the public daily, introducing and explaining the merits of this modern medicine. —Adverttettooafc
