In the white r>f> too) chortle lluit
Joe I/ouli Is to mrnrrjr rl«ht ntti'r
hla nil 1 np with Mai Rarr on the
24th of thla month.
And as (Icrfullr lb* yoktla on
th* pavcnrala ftln and grunt, "1
told joa bo."
While I'm not tba lad who la to
Irll the prractacr "1 do," I'm atlll
In the poaltlun where I can get a
load off my chest on the subject.
I'm too grltzled and rou(h-aud-
tnmhle a aort of cttra to appre-
c-Mite I he fine sentiment the so-
etrtr liojra and (tla who louf for
qnlet home life, or advocate It for
ncmebodj elae, to *et eiclted
■hout Joe'a niartlmonlal future.
I can't see a thins but a two
flated son-of-a gun who baa bat
t<-r<d bis war up froui nowhere
going tb« way of all prlieHgbterm
wlio listen to the sons of lore. I
rant re* a thing In thla engage-
ment of the ratflal boxing hope of
«laf!-Urtuned America, but woe
an 1 tribulations for the box of-
til*.
Joe'a a good boy, but he's done
s'oue wfenc. to my notion. You
folfca must bear In mind that I'm
•s-clng thla thing through the eyea
of the man who cherka the re-
ceipts ; th: lada and laaates who'll
yell "hit him hoy" In the aerenth
rrjod of the big fight, when the
«'J r trllow la wolilillng on hla
ptea and seems on the way out.
Mlsa Vans Trotter, the lucky
young lady, la aa charming a se-
lection aa Joe, or anyone elae,
could bare made. But I really
aad truly wish Joe was still a me-
chanic and had never eyed the
boxing racket as s meana of gain-
lag a living.
In that way we wouldn't hare
to abed tears over hla demlae aa
a single man. or to a can tbc fu-
ture with anxloua eyes while shad-
ows of doubt, sinister n"ti forbod-
lng hover In the foreground.
Priseflgbters, and history beara
me out, fade after getting Into the
stralghtjacket of matrimony, took
at Jack Thompson, Harry Wills,
tJene Tunney, Larry Johnson, etc.
Well, I guess you think mo a
werewolf of the newspaper racket,
always draining the life blood out
of the glamor, the exciting and
tbc glory of the game by harping
on the prosaic side of the ques-
tion. Can't help It a bit
I like things to stsy as they are.
I like to see Joe In there bang-
ing away without the knowledge
thct the madam or anyone else
hss s claim on Ills attentions.
tineas It had to tie that way.

California Pacific International
Exposition, returned Friday eve-
ning after spending a month on

BALTIMORE, Md.— (ANP) —
Coach Hurt, announced Tuesday
that Carl Drake, All American
goard of last year's team will lead
tbe 1030 team. Drake hails from
Belmar N. J., and for three years
has been one of the main cogs In
the Bear machines that have won
three CIAA championship".
Two of the most popular manag-
ers In the game have won out
for managerial berths In tbe
North-South Baseball Classic to
be staged In Memphis. Tennessee,
September 20th. After a pro-
longed discussion and review of
the talent to be considered, Oscar
Charleston won out for the North-
ern team, and Reuben Jones for
tbe Southern.
Charleston, bustling, colorful di-
rector of tbe Pittsburgh Crawfords
since 1002, was a choice over Mc-
Donald of the Philadelphia Stars.
Jim Taylor of Nashville, Dave Ms-
Isroher of Chicago, and William
Bell of Newark, and Is considered
one of the game's keenest strate-
gists.
President Greenlee of th* Negro
Nationsi league and Dr. J. B.
Martin of the Southern agreed on
both choices. The press was In-
formed. however, that neither
Charleston nor Jones was selected
because of the demerits against
other memliers in the field, but no
recent and present performances.
Reutien Jones, had the hardest
road to travel, competing with
Hensley, ' Frank Johnson, and
Sandy Thompson. Hensley. man-
ager of Claybrook, ran tbe Mem-
phis mentor up to split points. One
of tbe best argument* to favor
Hensley was built around bis
work with Claybrook, a first year
team, but known and talked about
In every city of the Union. His
first professional game was play-
ed in St. Louis where he was
one of tbe hurling aces for year*.
Frank Johnson of Monroe, has
managed several pennant winners
tn the Southern League, and la ac-
credited with a perfectly disciplin-
ed team at all times. Johnson has
developed suck star* a* Money,
Morrla, Washington, E. Williams,
Zollle Wright, Mayweather. I
Brown. Sandy Thompson, a pro-
tege of Rube Footer, starred with
Cuban House of David, now man-
aging a New Orleans team, one of
the game's best pinch bitters, ac-
curate "bunfci" and smart base
runner, ■
Principal among tbe points to
favor Charleston, are the Craw-
ford* copping first half honor*,
and bis good Judgment In direct-
ing bis team to an 11-8 win in
the East-West gsme.
Both managers were 'Selected
from a field of good material, and
If their past record* can be taken
aa a gauge on the outcome, t p-
tember 20th, will show off to
Memphis one of the hardest play-
ed games ever staged anywhere.
Both manager* will stiimnoe*
probable lineups next week.
