OFFERS WEALTH FOR OWNERSHIP OF LUCKY CENT Menke Recounts Story of Good-Luck Piece Presentv ed to Stallings When the Braves Needed Boosting. BY FRANK G. MENKE, Sporting Editor of The International News Service.

HAVANA, April 8

Twenty-five . thousand dollars In real,

regular money was

offered for the twin

I brother of the penny that won a pen

nant and a world's series for George Stallings, chief of those trackless Bos

ton. Braves. The

'offer was rejected.

Huston, part owner

of the thoroughly renovated and probably rejuvenated Yankees, made the offer. Captain Cushman Rice, the foremost American in Cuba, and owner of the penny, spurned it. And now Cap Rice fears that Cap Huston, who lives in Havana when be isn't living elsewhere, will bang him on the knob some dark night and try to take the penny away from bim or hire some one to burglarize his rooms. Will Keep Penny. "But I dont' care what happens, Cap Huston can't have that penny,' says Cap Rice. "I might need that penny myself some day." Cap Huston wants the penny so that he can pass it along to Wild Bill Donovan, who is serving time just now as manager of the Yankees. Wild Bill wants the penny because he feels that If he gets It he can win a pennant and a world's series just as did George SUlllngs. Cap Rice gave the penny to Stallings early last summer. At that time the Braves were hopelessly in the rut. "Take this, George, and keep it with you; it will bring you luck," oaid Cap Rice, during the presentation ceremonies. Stallings took the penny, and everybody know 8 what happened afterward. On the same day that Stallings got that penny the Braves won a game. The next day they won another. And they continued to win until there was

no more use of winning. They had

won everyuung in sigm. Penny Turns Luck. Stallings will tell you that it was the penny that whirled the Braves from the cellar position to the crest of baseball. Some persons think it was because the Braves played better baseball than any one else. But that's an erroneous idea. The penny did it the very same penny that Cap Rice gave to Stallings. Stallings never permitted the penny to leave his possession. Many men have wanted to examine it, but they have made their examinations with Stallings holding the penny in his hand. One day, while Stallings was showing the penny to an anxious inquirer, one of the players touched it ".iust for luck." The next time that player stepped to the plate there were r.hreo men on bases. He tripled, and 'he Braves won. Ever afterward, v-hen the Braves needed a hit in a pinch, Stallings ordered his men to touch the penny. When they did they usually delivered. (

Williams, Thompson and Quigley kept Pence t the Muncie goal Jumping around pret ty lively most of the time, keeping up a consistent bombardment of the cage. Fahroer was forced to retire because of injuries received in a recent game. : f

The Fence Factory had a hard time in getting enough of their men on the floor to play the game, and as it was they played with eight men. Last night was surely the time for them to get into the first column If they are ever going to, because they caught the Ad

Lucas lead in the hitting with four safe smashes out of five times up. Zeb Pottlnger essayed to twirl for the Fence Factory, but after the first inning he gave it up as a bad job and was content to go back to his position at first.

SEEDERS WIN FROM NATCOS BYJJCORES Themer and Williams Prove Effective on Mound Holding Total Score Down to 16 Markers.

With the Natcos and Seeders fighting it out to see who would be on even terms with the Ad-Hill team for tie for second place in the league standing the SeederB won out in the lowest scored game of the schedule, winning by a 11 to 5 count. The work of the twirlers was much more effective than

in previous games, and but sixteen hits were rolled up by the two teams. Themer for the Natco crew was the champ batter, with an even percentage of three out of as many times up, one of which was good for two sacks. Winters put up a nice game of backstopping for the losers, having fourteen put-outs to his credit. Williams showed good form in lobbing them over the pan, getting fifteen via the strike-out route.

LOWERING OF EARLHAM

(Continued from Page Oe )

A. and of the International Sunday School association are everywhere insisting that students during their undergraduate days should keep In touch with the local church and Bunday school. The Young Friends ; movement Is developing a new loyalty to Friends and their work. I do not favor any secarlaa movement, but in these days of tolerance and interdenomlnatlonaUsm, we recognise that to work In the church universal means to work In and through some denomination of the church. Each has its own work, and feels that Its own young people should be trained to take it up and support it Intelligently. For the college to refuse to do its part in this denominational education is to be false to its obligation and opportunity. "The . culminating result of the college was when it refused to make any practicable arrangement with West Richmond Friends meeting and lost its one good chance to keep- the Quaker students In a Quaker meeting. I could no longer assume responsibility for work others controlled contrary to my views, nor for a policy that I do not believe the yearly meetings owning Earlham understand or approve."

EARLHAM BOARD

(Continued from Page One.)

if,-..!

there seemed but one thing to do and

that was make the decision we did.

"The board unanimously passed a resolution thanking Professor Russell for his past services to the Col

lege and its regret over his action in! resigning." "Is it true," asked the interviewer,;

'that Professor Mendenhall is slated for Professor Russell' position?" "Most certainly not," replied the official. "Professor Mendenhall has entirely another department Such a thing was not mentioned." Kenworthy's Connection. "Is it true that Murray Kenworthy. who resigned as pastor of the West Side Friends church, is to be considered?" "The board of trustees has never at any time employed Murray Kenworthy. He is not in the employ of the board. He has, therefore an agreement with the West Side meeting, some classes in the Biblical department but this was a purely local arrangement and one with which the board has nothing to do. "Professor Russell will continue with the Biblical department until the close of the school year. "Please say that the resignation had nothing to do with either theology or politics. There was absolutely no discussion of or reference to theological matters. "Neither has the fact that Professor Russell ran for Congress on the Progressive ticket anything to do with the affair. Some of the trustees are Progressives and the political situation had absolutely no part in the matter."

Many of the "straw" hats of Europe are made of wood.

work of the Friends church is not so presented. I have never insisted that the faculty should be composed wholly of Friends, but I do maintain they

should be in sympathy with Friends' ideals. The ideals of public education generally and the supposed desires of the non-Quaker students have apparently more influence in shaping the policy of the administration, than the needs and ideals of the church that supports the college. To my mind this is fundamentally wrong. I do not believe in sectarianism, but if I

sent my son to DePauw university, because of its superior moral and spiritual influences, I should expect him to hear frequently about the work and history of the Methodist Episcopal church. I should expect him to hear the bishops present the claims of the Methodist ministry upon Methodist students. I should think be did not understand where he was and why he was there, if he felt such work out of place. "Today the leaders of the Y. M. C.

A poor Refrigerator the most expensive. Refrigerators with damp, leaky interiors are simply microbe breeders. They are worse than none at all. The interior must be dry and cool.
