BRINGING UP FATHER BY OUT HE CsM there sou come an mM WELL QUAKERS WILL END SEASON AFTER MUG SNAPPING OF SQUAD Final rites for the 1920 Earlham basketball . team will be performed this week. The weather permitting, a group photograph of the first squad was to be taken Wednesday afternoon. Sweaters and letters will be awarded next week. A captain probably will be elected Thursday. Those to receive letters and sweaters are Goar, Hall, Lawler, Carey, Pitts and JohnBon. The Quaker thinly clads continue to gallop around the cinders at Reid Field each afternoon the weather norpAta. The distance candidates are ytji. through a three mile cross-country 'run every other day. Except for light workouts for the battery aspirants, the Quaker baseball candidates are handed the same work as trackmen. Reid field is being repaired and Coach Mowe hopes to start regular baseball practice the last of next week. CUBAN YOUNGSTER STRIKES OUT RUTH Mario de Vitalis the youngster who used to curve them ovef for Brown University, will point to March 3 as 1he red letter day in his life, for on that day this spring he actually struck cut Babe Ruth. There was no fluke about it, either. Devie served up two eIow one3 that the be hemoth sent Phootlng sky high, but foul, and then to see what would happen, he burned over a curve. Babe, like Casey, shattered the air with the force of his swing, and at once the college lad voted himself a major leaguer. Babe appreciated the fact that the drinks were on him, and bawled out in his Toghorn tones: "Got me on that one." The Akron club of the International league announces that it has surrendered its claim to Polly McLarry to the St. Loui3 Nationals, in exchange for Lee Hobbs and pash. Since Hobbs belongs to Memphis, this means, presumably, that the deal was made by St. Louis for Memphis and that the famous Polly will play first base for John McCloskey. One of the players now in camp with Clark Giffith's Washington team at Tampa, Fla., is Stark, a second base'X,n from the Bronx. Stork was recommended to the boss of the Senators by Joe Judge. Cecil Causey, former Giant, who was traded to the Braves last season, balked long and strenuously on the terms offered him. Ho may not be with the club next season. Emilio Palmero, the Cuban southpaw, who was a member of the Giants for a long time. Is to pitch for the Omaha club of the Western league in Hie coming campaign. Palmero was reloaded to the Ompha club by Louisville. The St. Louis Cardinals have signed a schoolboy pitcher named Henry Moad, who stands six feet three and a half inches high and weighs 165 pounds. He is only 19 years of age at that. Ought to b some man when he grows up. He hails from Columbus, Ohio, and Joe Tinker gave him the once over last spring, but he was not ripe then. Down in Havana they don't bother with a reviewing board when a player gets in bad. Adolfe Luque, pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds in season and manager of the Almendares team the past winter, hit anumplre during a recent game. He was jerked before a Cuban judge and fined $100 and costs. Enthusiastic partisans of the Almendares team raised $500 to settle the account. Indians Romp Over Team From Tampa, in the South ViT. PETTERSBURG. Fla.. March 17 -Tommy Leach, who played for something like 25 years in the big leagues, led his Tampa team over to St. Petersburg to battle with the Indianapolis Indians. Despite the fact that Tommv had Wilbur Good of the Kansas City team, Howard Shanks of Washington and several other leaguers in his lineup, the Indians sent them back across the bay on the short end of a 6 to 2 count. The contest lasted only seven innings, for the Tampa team was forced to terminate hostilities in time to catch a boat for Tampa. NATCO SPURNS CHALLENGE. Upon conditions named, the Natco bowlers will not accept the challenge of the A. S. M. for a nine game series of singles and doubles tourney between the two factories. The Seeders want all games rolled at Twigg's allevs, while the Natco's use the Y alleys exclusively. The Natcos will accept, however, if the games are equally divided between the Y and Twiggs. Y" TEAM MAY PLAY The Richmond Y. M. C. A. will probably be represented at a state basnetball tourney at the Newcastle Y. M. C. A., for 112 pound teams on March 26 and 27.

HAVF Bowling The Cleaners and Haberdashers hooked up In a three-game bowling match at Twigg's alleys Tuesday night, and the score sheet Indicated that the Haberdashers copped two games. The Cleaners won the first game by a comfortable majority and lost the second the same way. Only four pins separated the teams in the final contest. The Number One Kaysees finally won a bowling match but by the forfeit route. However, the Krhghts rolled three good games and would probably have forced the Tramps to hump to beat them.

Recruit the "land battleship," which has been "anchored" for two years in Union Square near Broadway, went out of commission Tuesday with the lowering of Old Glory and her commission pennant. The Recruit, which untouched by ocean waves, induced thousands to join the navy during the war, will "sail" by land for Coney Island and will "dock" at a safe distance from the Atlantic ocean. Larry Kopf. Larry Kopf, dashing shortstop of the Cinci Reds, can look the world baseball and otherwise in the face this summer with a broad smile. For he goes into the coming campaign with the Clncl fans with him and full of confidence himself. As I've stated before, Kopf was considered the weak sister of the Reds' infield last season when Moran started his outfit toward the pennant. "If the Reds could land Herzog for their infield, we'd cop in a walk.", said one scribe, for instance. Kopf knew the general opinion of his ability, but kept his head up and played the limit. When the grand drive was on in full blast the world awoke to the fact that William Lawrence was covering short like a bear-cut and was handling himself very capably, thank you, on the offense. And in the world series we have to recall it frequently he proved one of the Red heroes. He made but one boot in 39 chances and slammed out six hits, good for 10 bases in the eight melees. Kopf was born in Bristol, Conn., in ISO 3 and started his baseball career at Fordham College, where the Cleveland Indians found him in 1912. They farmed him to Toledo and later let him go to the Athletics. He played second quite consistently for them in 1914 and 1915 and then was sent to Baltimore. The Reds signed him in 1917. When the war came along Larry played with the Fore River boys a while and then joined the army. Last year the Dodgers sought him and Moran asreed to let him go in the deal that brought Daubert to the Reds. Kopf balked a lucky hunch on his part. HOLD BOXING BOUTS OXFORD. O.. March 17 Sixty Miami University boys will hold preliminary boxing bouts Friday afternoon, the best men to meet the following day in the finals. The Winners of these will meet the boxers of the Cincinnati University on Saturday, March 27, in the first inter-Collegiate tournament ever pulled off in Ohio. Frank Mills and Lou Bauman, of Cincinnati, well known referees, will be in charge of the fistic festivities. Steam plowing was introduced in England in 1832, but never made great headway.

They'll fight twelve rounds, no decision. Jack and his enthusiastic manager are sure Perry will stop Britton. The Pittsburger has given Britton some tough fights. Britton's friends aren't anticipating any sensation, however.

YANKS WALLOP REDS IN EXHIBITION GAME MIAMI, Fla., March 17. Inspired by the presence of Colonel Til Huston, who arrived from New York just in time for the second contest of their series with the Reds, the Yankees lit into the World's Chompions at Tatum Park Tuesday afternoon and administered the sort of walloping which Manager Moran's minions seldom receive. Errors by Sam Crane at the short field and the painful ignorance of the location of the platter exhibited by Eddie Gerner in the later rounds enabled the American leaguers to run up a total of nine tallies, while our boys could achieve nothing off the puzzling curves of Bob Shavvkey and Jack Quinn. It was a complete rout by the forfeit score of 9 to 0, but there was no forfeit about it on the part of the Reds.vyho st-ugglcd through the nine round's" to conform to the rules, but were innocuously helpless before the skill of the Yankee hurlrs.

Valuable Copper Mine Philadelphia Ledger One of the most important applications of geological science in the ! pointing out of places likely to yield stores of mineral wealth. Ana yet, where copper is concerned, the really great discoveries in this country have been made by pure luck, j It was 'Old Man Royale's pig that located, according to the story, the richest copper mine in the world the famous Calumet lode. i Old Man Royale was not interested j in mining: he kept a boarding house. But his pig was gifted with the valuable quality of enterprise. Grubbing in the back yard it "snooted' up a prehistoric Indian cache. The cache contained a large quan- . ty of copper, a fortune in itself. But examination of the rock beneath dis closed veins of the metal, and mining operations thereupon undertaken developed the Calumet lodf, which has since paid $145,000,000 in dividends and $500,000,000 in wages. "Native" copper was used to a considerable extent by the Indians in pre-Columbia days, for ornamental purposes chiefly. Ancient aboriginal rkeletons have been dug up wearing corner masks. In Michigan thfv got i against thorn; and huge nuggets of i "mass" copper weighing hundreds of pounds have been found in the Lake Superior region which showed signs of unsuccessful attark. The Indians had no tools with which to cut up such great lumps, and Ihey could not carry ihem away bodily. Copper is the American metal par excellence, and of all the metals it. is the most useful to mankind, Iron alone excepted.

Brain May (rack From Heavy Load It Carries (Los Angeles Times.) We have contended right along that there is grave danger of the human race cracking its brains with all the knowledge it is trying to load up on. The brain won't stand it. And it is a very serious mistake for any one man to try to know all there is to know, or to know one-millionth part of one-tenth of what there is to know or to be known. Some one once asked late General Horace Porter what a "mugwump" was. General Porter replied: "A mugwump is a person educated beyond his intellect. We are in danger of becoming a race of mugwumps. Have you ever read what Renan said on this subject? Well, here it is: "A great danger impends becauae the accumulation of knowledge and power is unlimited, while the human intellect does not expand. There is reason to fear that the human brain may collapse under its own burden; that there may come a moment when Its very progress spells its ultimate decadence. It will be like an equation that carries its limits within its own statements." That's a terrible thing to think of; isn't it? Anyway, It Is not necessary to be smart or'to be intellectual even. Personally, we know lots of people we love beyond words to tell who never heard one single wonder-man in either science or art. We have a neighbor who eats with his knife and drinks tea out of his saucer, and who never read Ibsen; but, oh. dear folks, he is the best neighbor in the world. God save us. It is a fast pace we are going. And every time we think of it we talk to our yellow cat in front of the fire and try to be as serene and as truly wise as he is. WOMEN'S BUREAU KEEPS TABS ON MEN'S MORALS GLEN CAMPBELL, Pa.-The women of this community can leam whether their husbands, fiances or prospective bridegrooms drink, smoke, chew, swear, gamble or Btay out late at nights by visiting a "moral bureau" just organized by leading clubwomen. Mere man will be listed at No. 1 if he is free from all moral iniquities, while if he diverges from the narrow path in any particular his rating will be materially lower. "It's for our own protection," said one member. "We want to know every man morally." HUSBAND'S HYMN OF HATE EDINGURGH, Scotland. Mrs.Catherine Mackenzie Tillman was granted a divorce from her husband because of desertion and misconduct.

VENUS, NEIGHBOR OF; ' EARTH, .MAY' HAVE i irr nu ounrinr

urn un ounrAUL The most interesting place lmaito' able to visit would be Venus. Almost any clear night we can see ner saining brightly In the sky a veritable twin of Earth, only a little smaller, and somewhat nearer to the sun. Why does she shine so brightly? It Is because a perpetual envelope of clouds completely covers her. Ton have noticed that the "thonderheads" which often appear in the summer sky shine as white as snow when illumined by the sun. The sun is shining upon Venus and her cloud envelope brilliantly reflects the light. Seen through a great telescope, Venus looks as big as does the moon to the naked eye. Once In a while she passes between us and the sun and then her disk is seen to be surrounded by an illuminated ring. This is her atfnosphere, which is supposed to be filled with vapor. A damp planet Venus must be. Unfortunately, her envelope of clouds so hides her that nobody knows what she really looks like. But for that, we should already have a pretty fair notion of her geography, inasmuch as she is so near a neighbor. It may be taken lor granted that the surface of Venus is mostly ocean. The planet only three-fourths as far away from the sun as we are gets twice as much heat from that source and evaporation is correspondingly greater. Hence we must figure Venus as a very rainy world, with swollen rivers and Immense areas of swamp. Thanks to the cloud envelope, the climate must be pretty much the same all over Venus; at all events, there are no great differences. For that reason also, it is probably no hotter there than here, although one might imagine the humidity to be frightfully oppressive. Under the conditions such as those described there must be an extraordinary luxuriance of vegetaticn. Indeed, the landscape of Venus today may easily be Imagined to resemble those of our own planet during the coal forming nge perhaps with a similar fauna of extraordinary reptiles, and as yet neither birds nor mammals. Venus, in other words, would seem to be a younger sister of earth, not yet ready, perhaps, for supporting the higher forms of life. Mars, on the other hand, was old long ago, and now is certainly very dead. The notion that venus always presents the same face to the sun no longer gains accecptance by most astronomers. Apparently she revolves on her axis once in 24 hours, her days being thus about the same length as ours. Her diameter is 7,630 miles. VIGRAN TRUNKS 617 Main St DR. R. H.
