( I'.y II C. HAMILTON") BT I'VITEH I'RFSS.I NEW "lOKK, May S. It has com to a point whore the fans just can't keep of? Heinle Zimmerman. The example set by the rabid bleacherites : t Chicago is being we'.l followed )n New York. Heinie is made to feel at home every time he figures in a play that works with reverse English on his jrlory. Memories of the famous rlay in which Heinle pursued Eddie Collins across v. ;th. a run during: the Inst world's frits must rankle in the breasts of the New Tork fans, for they certainly have picked hi:n out to ride, and everyone is a Jockey. A short time ago Heinie srav th fans a chance, and they went after him stronp. Ivy Olson was the brilliant bird in this rlay. which took place in Kbb"ts feld. Brooklyn, during the Giants' s-.rh r of opening victories. Ivy popped :p a dinky fly over second base which KaufT started after. George Burrs also had an ide-. he could take care of it, so he beat it after the ball. Arthur Fletcher r.nd Larry Doyle also decided to horn in and they wont after the ball. The four of them, shouting for the play, suddenly stopped to "let George do it." and George wasn't handy. The ball fell safe. Olson had reached first by this time and. noting that second base was unprotected and because Fletcher and Ioyle had gone out to chase the fly. he beat it for second. Heinie Zimmerman was the on'y member of the Giants to take note of the situation, and he dashed for second base, yelling for the throw-. No one threw, so Olson, discovering that third base also was denuded of a protector, kept on and made that hassock without any trouble. And the crowd rode Heinie Zimmerman. Zim was the goat. He was no more to blame for what had happened than he was when Fill Rarid"n stepped out of the way and let Heinie chase Collins with the ball in his hand. Fletcher was the man to blame, for he. as captain of the team, should have called the play on the fly ball. Thus either himself or Poyle would have been left to protect the middle bag. But Heinie Zimmerman wouldn't be L... . --

er way is to mark a $375 Player at $650 and pay some person from $30 to $75 secret commission who poses as a "friend" of the customer for steering the customer into the store. Still another way is to mark a $375 Player at $650 because the customer who buys it might want to trade In a used piano and the dealer can easily iffer $200 for the old piano then resell it for $100 and Btill make a big profit, rafter paying a nice, fat commission to the "friend" who influenced the customer to purchase a very cheap piano believing it to be actually worth $fi.-)0, only to wake up later and find that the whole proposition was a skin gam" and the piano buyer was made the goat. THIS METHOD OF PIANO SELLING IS RUNNING AT FULL BLAST IN HAMMOND EVERY DAY. The Strauba plan of absolutely one-prlce-no-commisslon is the ether way of felling. At this store you are not forced to buy just one kind of a piano. Dealers who are tied up to one factory are forced to sell only such pianos as made by one factory. You have no choice. At Straube's such fine reputable makes as Kranich & Bach, Haines Brother, Behr Bros. Marshall &. Wendall, Kohler 4. Campbell, Straube, Players, Grands and Uprights ate offered to you at the lowest prices in the United States. We pay no commissions because our prices are so low that we can not afford to do so. If we paid commissions the "friend" would select a poor piano and you as the customer would pay from $100 to $150 more than the riano is worth. Before you sipn a contract or pay one dollar nn a piano, go to Straube's and make a liid cmparipon both in price, quality and business methods.
