FAMOUS PITCHER,
G. ALEXANDER, TO
WED OMAHA GIRL
Grover Alexander, famous bas ball
pitcher, will be wedded to Miss Aimee
Arrant, 418 Sweetwood avenue, rri
day at Camp Funston. '
Miss Arrant had intended going
sooner to meet her fiance, but a long
distance telephone call Tuesday
changed her plans somewhat. The
bridegroom-elect said: "I expect to
be placed in 342d field artillery this
afternoon. Better wait and come Fri
day instead, as my possible short
furlough may be longer then."
Miss Arrant said she rather liked
the idea of not knowing just the hour
when she will be married.
"Of course I'm very proud of Gro
ver and want him to serve his coun
try," Miss Arrant said. "I will re
turn to Omaha to make my home
until the war is over."
1 Mr. Alexander and Miss Arrant met
while they were attending school in
St. Paul. 1
Mrs. Otto Merr, wife of the Rourke
pitcher, will accompany Miss Arrant
to Funston,

THINK You Wfrp
-hv" - HJIt 1 1 M
Wieldina
By FRED S. HUNTER.
II PON looking it up in the book,
Carl Marfisi, whose two at
tempts to promote his maiden wres
tling match resulted in total losses al
most before they were started, has de
cided that Barnum was, all wrong.
"There's two born every minute, not
one," says Carl, "and I am twins."
When Gene Melady delivered his ,
celebrated ukase to Joe Stecher to
wit, that Joe must first beat Zbyszko
before asking for a go with Earl Cad
dock Carlos saw a light. In other
words Carlos saw, or thought he saw,
an opportunity to gang together in
his own pocket a considerable quan
tity of the vagabond shekles of the
community. So Carlos matched Stech
er and Zbyszko and began to dream
sweet dreams of all the spaghetti he
would be able to buy.
So busy was Carlos with his dream
ing that when Stecher and Jack Cur
ley gave him personal checks for the
$1,000 forfeits each deposited as a
guarantee of good faith to make good
on the articles of agreement, he mere
ly put the checksjn a drawer in his
desk.
"It'll be real nice on the night of
the match to return to Jack and Joe
their own money," mused the trusting
Carlos, "instead of tying up their
money for nothing for a couple- of
weeks."
All was well and good until last
Saturday. Then Carlos received Jack
Curley's telegram cancelling the
match. And then Carlos remembered
that personal check. He also remem
bered that one of the easiest things
jn earth is to stop payment on a per
sonal check.
It was Saturday afternoon. The
banks were all closed. The feverish
Carlos got busy. He called a director
of his bank away from the family fire
side, coaxed the director into opening
up the bank for a few seconds and de
positing the check. He is now waiting
to hear the bad news. Carlos is an
optimistic cuss and he is hoping for
the best, but he cut his eyeteeth long
ago and he is only hoping.
"Barnum was all wrong," mused
Carl. "All wrong. There's two born
every minute, and I'm twins." '
