Rickey Disposes of Cardinal Interest

lly I'nitrd Press ST. LOUIS. Dec. 19.—With ,announcement of a $lO share dividend on St. Louis Cardinal baseball stock, it was revealed Branch Rickey, vice president of the National League club and right hand man to President Sam Breadon, had sold his interest in the team to C. H. Howard Jr., St. Louis, a minor shareholder. Breadon said there was no significance to the the deal, as Rickey “owned very little stock.” Breadon owns 76 per cent of the Cardinal organization while the remaining 24 per cent is divided among 140 stockholders. Rickey refused to discuss the sale, saying it’s “my own personal affair.”

A Dog f s Life By Leon F. Whitney

WELL, well, I guess I stirred up a tempest, and it was not in a teapot, by my story about reasoning ability in dogs. Letter after letter has come to tell me that dogs do reason and that as one person said, I am “all wet.” But I stand by my assertion that so far no one has been able to devise a laboratory experiment which would demon-

strate that a dog can actually reason. in the sense that that term is used by psychologists. Here is one letter which mentions an occurrence that looks like reasoning ability on the part of a dog. Maybe it was. Asa matter of fact I have seen dogs

sslllilMfe * -• <

perform feats under natural conditions that certainly look like reasoning to me, but when I came to duplicate them under laboratory conditions, I couldn’t demonstrate a thing. ‘Dear Mr. Whitney: A few days ago I read your article Does a Dog Reason?’ Well, I imagine by now you are just coming up for air through your ton or more of answers to that question. For that is a sort of challenge to every man or woman who at one time or othdV has owned a worthwhile dog. “Our Smoke was one of these great dogs—a mongrel, half shepherd and half bull, short-haired, brindle, and weighing about 50 pounds. He offered a double threat to any dog who foolishly took a try at Smoke's cache of bones. This I think you will credit to instinct, the second, I am inclined to challenge if you lay it up to instinct. “My brother took Smoke on a long hike through the woods late one fall afternoon. They were about six miles from home when it started to snow. My brother slipped on the snow covered leaves, twisting his ankle very badly and throwing him to the ground. He tried to rise, was in great distress, but managed to struggle along a ways, then fell again. The snow storm increased and it grew bitter cold. Each time that Jack fell down Smoke was upon him. dragging at his clothes, licking his face, barking in his ears and pawing his breast. It took them hours to reach a road and help. Our love of that dog lasted as long as he lived. He had saved Jack from freezing to death.—F. W. L. More about feeding dogs starch tomorrow. Do you nave a dog problem?

But don't look for him in the telephone book or the Indianapolis directory, for rules of the contest required that compositions be submitted under pseudonyms, and he must remain a mystery until the winners are announced. The jury which will make the awards (first prize $1000; second $500) is soon to be formed. Dr. Frederick Stock, conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, is to head it, the other members to be selected with his approval. As eagerly sought as the cash award, however, is the signal honor that comes to the winner, that of having his cun,posit.ion played by the Chicago Symphony. The idea for the nation-wide competition of young American musicians—those participating must be under 40 years of age was conceived by Mr. Swift during the engagement of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at the Swift exhibit at the World Fair last summer. Plans were made in collaboration with Dr. Stock, who is himself a composer of note and long a friend of young and striving artists. In all, 118 entries, including those of 13 women, had been received when the contest closed. The type of composition specified in the contest was that of the larger symphonic form not to exceed 20 minutes in performance. u tt tt Announcement is made today that “Flirtation Walk,” with Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler in the cast, will open a five-day engagement tomorrow at the Circle. Indianapolis theaters today offer: Laurel and Hardy in “Babes in Toyland” and “The Band Plays On,” at Loew’s Palace; “Behold My Wife,” at the Indiana; “Music in the Air,” at the Apollo; “West of the Pecos,’’ at the Circle; Olsen and Johnson, at the Lyric, and “Mr. Skitch” and “Sitting Pretty” at the Ohio.
