Waseda University pays all expenses of the trip. That it is something more than a mere baseball excursion la Indicated from the fact that the Indiana University team was asked to be prepared for various social functions which will be In the na

The Twin City Knights of Columbus have placed their baseball team in the field for this season and Judging from the enthusiasm being shown by the players It looks like a promising and successful season. , The Twin City team has been entered in the K. of C. Suburban League. This league will consist of Hammond, Whiting. South Chicago, Harvey and East Chicago. The fact that all of these teams are
about evenly matched will make it an Interesting struggle for the pen-
ant and should also make It very Interesting for the fans to follow up their favorites, also to come out and support their choice for first honors.
There Is nothing more helpful or encouraging to the ball players
than the undivided support of the
fans for the home team.
The Kaseys of the Twin Cities
can boast oi sucu siur men
John McShane, who will cover the
territory known as center field
Mike Keenan will play the Initial
corner, and it Is a real treat for any
one to see Mike play, but best of an

enjoy the ball gam. They can Hartnett of the Chicago Cubs
"Gabby" but, oh boy. if they ever
heard Mike In action Hartnett would
sound like a mouse to them in the
future. On second, Johnny MIkula,
Elmer Piper or Johnny Duffy will
perform and show their numerous
stunts, while on third base we will
have the old reliable Harry Feirock
who played with the K. of C.s two vars sco and last year with the
Aristos. He hails from Ludlow, Ky. and swears that he has never touched a drop In his life. Joe Whelan
anot'ier promising youngster from
East Chicago, will knock them down at short and judging from his past performances the opposing team will have a hard time trying to get
a ball throujrh him.
In the outfield we have young Joe

Andrew Lott, Bill Quinn, acquired
from the Dodger A. C. at East Chi

IN THE BEST FORD FIELD IN AMERICA
CARS
Right Here in the Calumet District flfl am the new Ford and Lincoln Dealer at Whiting, Indiana, and am building an organization of men who can hit the baU and play the game exactly as thty SHOULD in return for an income of $5,000 per year or more. SJI'da not want men who are lazy, dovenly, rattle brained, ov lacking in plain liorse sense. f JMy men must be energetic and well dressed, clean men with dean habits. 1 will not tolerate Liars, Ma.hers, Joy Riders, Bunk Artists, Loafers or Grafters. CJ Just Real, Regular, Red Blooded, God-Fearing Men, who are Ready, Willing and Anxious to f oUow my orders and deal every card off the; TOP of the deck. CJMen who will tell the absolute truth at all times out of preference who wttl work continuously from 8 a. m. OR EARLIER, until 6 p. m. OR LATER, make daily reports covering every cafl, foUow my orders and dd things as I want them. done. CJ To such.men I will grant an opportunity to realize the exalted hopes of sky high ambition. Cf I want NINE men, because I am getting together a Pennant Winning Team and will continue to hire men, fire most of them and hire others until I am satisfied with my personnel. CjfAnd when that time comes I shall point with pride to my outfit and teU the public aU about it in a fuU page advertisement in this publication, with illustrations of my men and facts of interest regarding each. QNolhing short of men like Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Ray .Schalk, Tris Speaker, Jack Dempsey, Joie Ray, Eddie Rickenbacker, Ralph De Palma and Douglas Fairbanks will do. INine men Eke these will give me the calibre of team which I WILL assemble into & reality, with a couple of understudies like Al Jolson and Will Rogers for good measure. CJ Which will be SOME ORGANIZATION you must admit C Therefore if you think you belong in this kind of company, and have been hungry for a chance to get into the game with both feet, come to Wniting Sunday afttvnoon and show me that I have GOT to have you on my team. CJBut keep away if you lack good perception, common sense and respectability. - J I don't want to employ any man who already is on the pay roll of any other Ford dealer in this locality, neither do I want to consider any other dealer's discards. CJ Every man I employ must already live in Whiting or arrange to make that his place of residence in strict accordance with the policy of tho Ford Motor Company governing the subject of salesmen. JNo Salaries No Drawing Accounts No Money Advanced Just plain commissions on clean cut sales with no loose ends left to be takenj care of by me. CJI havent the time or inclination to help my salesmen do their work right. vjjckuba.i... . CfThe whole proposition is cold blooded business Cflf you want that kind of job and will follow the orders of your salesmanager, see me Sunday afternoon at my place of business in Whiting and come prepared to work fast.

Read My Fixed Policy qi claim to underttand EXACTLY what Henry Ford wants his dealers to do. CJ I contend that tha Ford Car yon buy of me is no better in any way than the one yon buy of any other dealer. fj But I know that it makes a difference to you where you get your Ford Car because of the yariation among, dealers in their interpretation as to what contitntes so-called Ford Service. CJ My understanding of it is this: CJ"To demonstrate GREATER Personal Interest in my customer's satisfaction AFTER he has paid me his money than before the sale." CJI believe that PERSONAL INTEREST counts BIG in this business and I am sure that many of the people who have ordered cars of me since March 29th, (when I began to do business) already have told their friends and neighbors that "Van Skklen, the new Ford Dealer in Whiting, Indiana is the kind of a man who plays fair with the public and is safe to deal with." CJBUY YOUR FORD IN WHITING and give me the chance to show you what Henry Ford intends you shall have in the line of Personal Interest After You Become a Ford owner. ... CJMY PLEDGE TO THE PUBLIC IS THAT "No Transactioi. with me is complete until the customer is Absolutely Satisfied."
