BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO, Jan. 22. George Wharton Pepper. Philadelphia attorney, retained to defend organized baseball in Judge Landis' court, today was scheduled to lambast the Federal league and paint the American and National leagues as -white as the driven snow. And Mr, Pepper, who talked for two hours Thursday afternoon, proved then that he was equipped to do that very thing. He impaled and held suspended the third organization and brought out these startling facts: That organised baseball no . longer depends upon the reserve rule, and that players signed to contracts running for a single year , could become free agents at the expiration of two seasons. ' That the case now being tried by Judge Landis waa not a question for the federal court to de . elde, snd therefore, the Jurist' did not hav jurisdiction. ' That the Federal league attempted to become a major organization' by resolution.

That the Federal league was at-' tempting to reap the benefits which the American and the National leagues were ten years in developing. That baseball was not com. merce; certainly not of the Interstate brand, and since nothing else of a federal nature had crept Into the proceedings, that It was not ... for a United State court to decide. The statement that organized baseball no longer depended upon the reserve clause, - and that every player within its folds could become a free agent was the most sensational of the .arguments of the attorney. The banplayers gathered about the railing and even the judge upon the bench could scarcely believe that they heard aright And the judge asked that the statement be repeated. Explafna Statement. . Even then there seemed to be some doubt, and he explained it in this manner: 'The player signing a 1915 contract comes to terms with the club owner. Seventy-five per cent of the sum named in the contract applies as salary for the season and the remaining twenty-five per cent is an option on the players services for the following year. If the player and the club owner cannot agree on terms for the 1916 contract then the salary which was paid in 1915 is to hold. But there is no further option and when the 1916 season contract expires the player Is at liberty to negotiate where he wills. If he desires to accept terms with the Federal League' he Is permitted to do so."

THE JOHNSON-WILLARD FIGHT. The Sensational Comedy Film. Round 3 Johnson laughs out loud as the round begins. Eventually something happened to tickle him. During the laughing process he exposes his metal teeth. They are terrible look

ing. Willard, seeing the teeth, and noticing that Johnson is coming , his way, rushes toward the referee:

"Hey, lookit, lookit" shrieks- Willard. "He's gonna bite me: .Taint fair. Taint fair." Referee cautions Johnson against exposing teeth, threatening to award fight to Willard on a foul If it happens again. "No use trying to scare an opponent to death" adds the referee. Gong. Round 4 As the round opened a lady like voice sang: out from the gallery: "Hello, there, Jackie, dear!" Johnson turned his ebony knob so

his eyes could search the gallery in

quest of the voice. That gave wiljard courage. . With the, agility of an : ele

phant, Willard stepped forward and

shot a terrible wallop at the back part of Johnson's head. However, the, blow did not land. Just at the very second that Willard swung, Johnson "spotted" the lady and made a sweeping bow. The blow whizzed over his head. Gong

HUNDLEY'S PET BILL COMES DP IN HOUSE Legislators to Consider Making Memorial Celebration on Sunday. A bill for which L. aT Handley of the post office has been fighting for several years and which he asked the Sons of Veterans and G. A. R. members to endorse will he introduced into legislature, asking that Memorial day be fixed as the last Sunday in May Instead of May 30. Mr. Handley stated work in the interests of the nfovement several years ago when Memorial day began to take the aspect of a Saturday holiday for jollification purposes, baseball leagues scheduled morning and double afternoon games and amusement places flourished. The object is not only to eliminate the unnecessary holiday on a week day but to, stop the desecration of the day which has been kept only by the persons attached to families of veterans. The movement was endorced by the local Sons of Veterans and Sol Meredith Post G. A. R. .

WHHLOCK FREED AIDE AND NURSES Brand WhUlock, former mayor of Toledo, Ohio, now United States Minister to Belgium, who has bad a number of clashes with the German military authorities now in control of the greater part of Belgium. Whitlock had great trouble concerning the release . of seven English nurses who were under his protection and who, after faithful promises frm the supreme authorities in Brussels that they should not be molested, were imprisoned at Mons, despite the presence there of a representative of Mr. Whitlock. Whitlock's aide was also placed under arrest in spite of his diplomatic character and the possession of perfect credentials, both German and American. It was only when Mr. Whitlock became emphatic in his demands that the nurses were liberated and allowed to contine their journey to England

games last night and Quite a few were forced to shorten up. But two accidents were registered last night, Bradfield getting a bump on his head and Oesting being elbowed in the eye by Fry. This is far different than last week when practically all the players were cut up in some way or other.

Neglect of children's colds often lays the foundation of serious lung trouble in later life. On the other hand, it is harmful to continually dose delicate little stomachs with internal medicines or to keep the children always indoors. The ideal way to avoid colds is to keep plenty of fresh air in the bedroom and at the first sign of trouble apply Vick's "Vap-O-Rub" Croup and Pneumonia Salve over the throat and

chest, covering with a warm flannel i. cloth. . The. .body heat releases anti

septic vapors that are inhaled all night

long, opening the air passages and

healing the inflamed membrane. In addition, Vick's is absorbed thrugh the skin," taking out the soreness and tightness. Vick's contains no harmful drugs whatever. At druggists 25c, 50c, and $1.00 adv.

PeeMal Lemises The word "PUNKTAL" is of German origin, meaning in this application a lens which reproduces any given definite point of any object as a DISTINCT POINT in the image. In other words, we have at last obtained an ophthalmic lens which is corrected for astigmatism in all powers. Even the flat form of lenses would be satisfactory if the eye always remained stationary in its socket and only used the center of the lens. The eye rotates, however, in viewing surrounding objects, snd even in reading, and one compelled to wear ordinary lenses can only avail himself of this rotation within restricted limits, according to the form of lens used. The narrow visual field of usefulness in the flat form of lenses was materially increased1 by the introduction of the Meniscus and Toric lenses, but these did not entirely eliminate all the blur caused by the astigmatism of oblique pencils of light. Desiring to eliminate all this astigmatism of oblique pencils and recognizing the impossibility of doing so when using a fixed base curve for all foci. Dr. Moritz von Rohr, of the scientific 6taff of Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany, Instituted extensive investigations in this field and published his findings in 1911. He succeeded in correcting for all foci the astigmatism noticeable toward the margain or ordinary lenses by computing the power of each lens and Its correction separately. Problems of manufacture were then undertaken and have now been solved satisfactorily. The result is the New Punktal Lenses PUNKTAL lenses are made only in the deep curved form and stand for the ultra refinement in ophthalmic lens manufacture, representing what may safely be regarded as the highest achievement in ophthalmic optics. Inasmuch as PUNKTAL lenses are the product of precise workmanship, a guarantee of the accuracy of their curves and surfaces is assured. Each lens therefore bears upon its surface, near the margin, a small trade mark of the Bausch & Lomb Optical Co., (they having the exclusive American rights), which serves as a mark of identity upon this product. We are now prepared to furnish you with these new PUNKTAL lenses at a slight cost above the regular Toric or Meniscus form. Miss C. M. Swenfecr Phone 1099. OPTOMETRIST. 927& Main St
