Winchester Brakeman Is Killed in Wreck

Sport Snap Shots BY JACK KEENE.

When the baseball season rolls around it is almost certain that at least one familiar National leaguer will be missing. He is none other than Jake Daubert, the veteran first

baseman of the Robins, so says am eastern scribe. However, if Daubert' 5s wearing a Brooklyn uniform next spring, the fans can rest assured that he is playing for less than he ever received from President Charles H. Ebbets. Five year sago, in the days of the Federal league, Daubert held up Ebbets for a five year contract calling for a yearly salary of $9,000. Ebbets, in 'order to keep Daubert In organized baseball, was forced to give In to the players demands, and since the contract was signed until the close of the abbreviated season of 1918,

the last year of the fat contract, ho has been dancing to Daubert's music. But now the worm has turned, and

Ebbets evidently is going to let Daubert l'now that he no longer holds the whip. If Daubert wants to play ball he will have to play with the ' Brooklyns, and for what Ebbets offers ; him. If he is not satisfied with thej contract, he will have to remain idle as far as baseball Is concerned. Dau-j bert is on the reserve list of the Brook-1 lyn club, an dhe will be offered a contract with all the other members of the team. Daubert will probably be j asked to play ball for about $1,200 i or $1,500 per peason, which is quite' a drop from $9,000. If Daubert refuses

to sign the papers Ebbets is not going to worry. The president of the club Intends and while he is on the list no other club can dicker for his services. It Is expected of course thatDaubert will not sign the contract offered him, and finding that the Brooklyn club refuses to release him from their reserve list he will probably go in business for himself. With Daubert absent the Flatbush fans will probably see Ivan Olson, who guarded shortstop for several years, on the Initial bag. Ray Schmandt will remain at second and Ollie O'Mara at third. Olson's place will be looked after by Chuck Ward, who is now In France, but is expected back before the team starts for the training, camp. Playing first base will not be a new experience for Olson. Several years ago he was a member of the Cleveland Indians and was stationed at the first etop off and on.

On The Screen

WASHINGTON Geraldine Farrar saw her first Goldwyn Picture, "The Turn of the Wheel," in the drawing room of her Pullman on her way to Wyoming, where many scenes of her second Goldwyn production, "The Hell Cat," by Willard Mack, were photographed. The diva started for the west the day following the completion of her first picture, regretting that she would be unable to see "The Turn of The Wheel" until her return from Wyoming. Learning of her chagrin In not being able to view her first Goldwyn work, studio officials arranged a jolly

surprise for the star.

Miss Farrar, needless to say, thoroughly enjoyed both the big surprise and "The Turn of The Wheel," which comes to the Washington today. MURRAY. Germany's attempt to subsidize the American press, through purchasing

newspapers here, is the basis of the plot of "On the Jump," a comedy featuring George Walsh, which will come to the Murray theater for two days, commencing Wednesday. Walsh is seen as a reporter, who gets an interview with President Wil

son by means of strategy. He later turns his talent toward selling Liberty

Bonds and disposes of $100,000,000 worth. Then he digs up the fountain head of the German spy system, the sabotage headquarters, and the de-" positary of the $30,000,000 fund

which the German ambassador left In this country for the purchase of American newspapers.
