Something lively on a dry subject!
Both Will Begin Eight
. eenth Year as Big
, League Pilots ,
This Season.
New York, April 7. John Mc
Graw and Connie Mack, veteran
field generals of the National and
American leagues, and rivals of long
landing, will commence their eight
eenth year as managers when the
base ball season opens next April.
They! veterans have records that
speak eloquently. McGraw has won
six National league pennants with
the Giants in his 17 years as a man
ager and has captured one world's
championship.
Mack's famous Athletics famous
in years gone by have also annexed
six pennants under his leadership,
btit they have outdistanced the Gi
ants in the matter of winning
world's championships, having
pulled down three.
When the bell rings April 14
Mack and McGraw will go out to
get the lump on each other in the
matter of winning pennants. They
hold the record in modern base ball
as pennant-winning managers and
there is no questioning the rivalry
between them
McGraw's Giants were fairly out
distanced by the fast-going Reds
last season. But this is another
year, and despite rumors that he
would probably retire at the close
of the 19J9 season, the coming
spring will find McGraw again on
the bench and the coaching lines
uiging his team on to victory.
Mack's Atnletics, composed large
ly of young players now, will enter
the coming American league race in
the "dark hoss" class. But Mack
is through selling stars. He is go
ing to try his hand at building up
affother pcni.ant winner.
With the exception of George
Gibson of the Pirates, there will be
no new managers in the field this
year, and a majority of the field pi
lots in both leagues are pretty well
established in their managerial
berths.

Wife Grows Wrathy as
Judge Tries to Force
Her to Take Alimony
C'hlmfo Tribune-Omaha Bee, Leased Wire.
Chicago, April 7. "I do not want
him or his dirty money," said Mrs.
h i i .
caroime iiaianu, 10 wnom judge
Sullivan granted a divorce today.
The court had tried all his bland
ishments to induce her to accept
alimony from George Haland, but
she was obdurate. "You are en
titled to alimony, why won't you
accept it?" .
"He is not working and he abused
me," she replied.
"That is no reason why you
should not have alimony. It is an
additional reason- why he should
pay."
"I don't want to live with him."
"You don't have to."
"I do not want him or his dirty
money. I do not want any excuse
for ever seeing or hearing from him
again. I am working and making
more than he can earn. He h no
good and I do not want anything
from him." "
"Well," said the judge, "have your
own way about it, but I think this
man should be forced to go to work
and pay something toward your sup
port." Fails to Decide Case of

As far as James B'oynton Blake was
concerned the League of Nations
and the Prohibition questions were
petty, insignifcant squabbles com
pared to the problem of getting
Toby's Bow.
You see, Toby bowed only to mem
bers of the Vardeman family and
Blake had fallen in love with the
fairest flower on the family tree.
So you can't blame him for throwing
a bombshell of vim, vigor, pep and
punch into the staid old Vardeman
household to ret that bow from
old Toby.
