There Are Never Enough
First-Class Cars in the Spring
They always run out, as you know. Last year, many
Hudson enthusiasts had to take second choice. Thou
sands waited weeks for delivery. This spring, despite
trebled output, there will be more delays. Choose your
car now’, w hatever class you are seeking. The leading
car has more orders than cars each spring.
Two tilings are certain: If you
buy a class car you will want a Light
Six, the latest and coming type. Your
first choice will be Hudson.
Hudson — the Ideal
Hudson stands out as the class car
in Light Sixes. Its supremacy ap
pears at a glance. It shows in beauty,
finish, luxury and refinement. It
shows in lightness—2870 pounds. It
shows in every part of the chassis.
Hudson is designed bv Howard E.
Coffin, who created the Light Six
type. It marks his latest achieve
ment.
This Hudson model is a four-year
result. Two years were spent on it
before it appeared. Two years have
been spent in refining it.
Hudson is built by the leading
builder of class cars. Its prestige
gives it permanent value. A year
after buying the Hudson will be
worth more than any other car in its
class.
12,000 Road Tests
But the greatest fact is that Hud
son is known to be free from mis
takes.
Over 12,000 Light Six Hudsons
are running. In twelve thousand
hands they have covered at least 30
million miles.
You know this car is staunch. You
know that it hides not a weakness or
error. Any owner around you will
tell you.
Remember, that the Light Six in
volves a new-type motor. Weight
saving has required changes in every
part. New materials were necessary,
special steels, much aluminum.
It saves half on tire cost and fuel
over old-time Sixes. ' But, like any
new type, it must prove itself fault
less.
Hudson has done that. In another
year other Light Sixes may have
given proof of their staunchness.
But today the Hudson is, by all odds,
the safest investment in this type.
Prove these facts now, while the
car can be promptly delivered.

B OSTON, April 23.—I have seen
Jess Willard, the present heavy
weight champion of the world,
for the first time, and I must say that
I was greatly impressed.
His great size struck me first. Then
the forward manner in which he
speaks. I>ater, in my interview with
him, I learned that he Is a elean-
llvlng man, and that Is what Impressed
me most of all.
Willard made himself the most
popular man In the world by winning
hack the championship for the white
race.
I made It plain to Willard that he
must leave boose alone. Boose Is the
enemy of every man, woman and
child.
I advised Willard not to get a swell
ed head, A swelled head kills public
characters, but I don't think that Wil
lard will be one of the victims.
HE WANTED HEAT.
’Twas slightly chilly in the flat
And to the tenant grabbed hit hat
And hunted up the janitor
And tiarted wild with bloody war.
"I want tome heal,” the tenant cried
In lonet that echoed far and wide.
AMP YET—
The day >('.at cold and raw and dark
And snow\fell on the baseball park,
And at he watched the baseball game
The wild wind whittled through hit
frame.
And yet he tat the livelong dr.y
And never had a word to tay.
A janitor Is an accommodating
cuss. He always gives you plenty of
■team on a warm day.
We have always wondered why a
baseball fan should be allowed to
grow cold when the owner has al
ways so much hot air on tap.
FABLE.
Once upon a time there was a news
paper that did not print the only
original, authorized and authentic life
story of Jesa Willard.
We are tempted to print the life
story of Young Microbe, but we are
afraid that Microbe might swing on
our Jaw.

"Brains.” says Percy Haughton.
"are needed on the football, field.'
But they are needed more among the
persons who emit college yells.
“A boy,” continues Mr. Haughton,
“when he goes to football practice, is
getting just as good mental training
as he does in the sehoolrcom, if net
better." Why not eliminate the school
room?
Frank Baker ie listening to the call
of the game, but he will not answer
until it sounds like the jingle of coin.
It ia evident that Freddie Welsh is
afflicted with spring fever. He hasn't
lost a decision all week.
IT'S ONLY AN ALIBI.
When men become to lary that they
scarce can do a thing
They yawn and stretch and heave a
sigh and lay the blame on
spring.
But when I yawn and stretch and
sigh upon an April day
I 0an not lay the blame on spring—
I always feel that way.

Phil Ball, Chief Owner of St.
Louis Team, Holds Long Con
ference in Comiskey’s Officei
C HICAGO, April 23.—Negotiations
for peace between organized
baseball and the Federal
League, which were begun here yes
terday, were continued to-day. If
the plans of the magnates are suc
cessful, baseball Is In for a revolu
tionary change. Instead of three ma
jor leagues, there will be two, with
the Federal League magnates buying
into the National League.
These facts came to light to-day,
after It was learned that Phil Ball,
chief owner of the St. Louis Feds, had
spent a long time In the private office
of Charles A. Comiskey, of the Chi
cago White Sox Robert I,. Hedges,
of the St. Louis Browns, also attend
ed the conference.
* • •
B ALL was on* of a party of Comls-
key's friends who were celebrat
ing the opening of the American
League season he rip. In the same
party were President Johnson, of the
American League, and Judge George
H. Williams, of St. Louis.
President Weeghman. of the Chi
cago Federate. not only attended the
opening day festivities at Comiskey
Park, but was the host for a box par
ty of ten persohs One member of his
party was President Gilmore, of tho
Federal League. Neither Weeghman
nor Gilmore was seen in Comiskey’s
office, however.
• • •
TYjRING the conference in Comis-
key’s office there were long-dis
tance telephone conversations be
tween the offices of President Gilmore,
of the Federal League; President W.
F Robertson, of the Buffalo club, and
President George B. Ward, of the
Brooklyn club, both members of the
Federal League executive committee.
None of the magnates to-day would
admit that peace negotiations were
progressing, although President Gil
more made a remark considered sig
nificant w’hen he said: “You know
there should have been peace In base
ball a long time ago.”
WalshTries Arm and
After Good Workout,
Says He’s Come Back
•-
I OS ANGELES, April 23.—Ed
Walsh, White Sox pitcher
who remained in Los Ange
les to have his arm treated by Dr
Spencer, has regained two-thirds
of his former efficiency.
Walsh warmed up with “Nig”
Clarke, the Seal catcher, the other (
day. This was the first time Spen
cer would allow Walsh to “cut
loose.” Big Ed had tremendous
speed, and once or twice he tried
' his famous “spitter,” knocking
Clarke's glove off his hand. Every
time Ed threw he let out a wild
S whoop of joy. He pounced upon
the local bail players, and in gen- .
eral acted like a small boy out on a
i vacation.
”1 have ’come back* to stay,” said
Ed. “This is no boast, but the simple
truth. Dr. Spencer has performed
the impossible, and I could hardly ,
believe it myself until my workout )
with Clarke this afternoon. I am
glad on account of myself, of
courso, but the best part of it all is
that I will be able to repay Comis
key for all he has done for me. As
yet I have not reached my best con
dition, but ins'de a week I expect to
be in the best possible shape.”
They Can't Come Too
Big and Tough for
This Whitney Battler
They can’t come too tough ai.d too
big f.w this Frankie Whitney boy.
Frank has two bouts pending for the
near future and in each case the
'‘Fighting Carpenter’’ will be forced to
give away from ten to fifteen pounds.
Whitney is offered a bout with Jake
Abel in Chattanooga next month. The
match is practically closed, but Frank
is holding out for one more ticket
than the promoters are willing to
give.
Frank is also matched to meet Han
lon at the Bijou Theater Thurs
day night. Eddie is a near middle
weight, still Frank is taking him on.
There may be better fighters in the
game than Whitney, but very few are
gamer and more willing than Atlan
ta's favorite glove-wielder. Whitney
says he will make 136 pounds for any
of the top-notch lightweights, but it
seims none of them care for his
game.

Lieutenant Governor Barratt O'Hara,
of Illinois, is one high State official who
believes that the tight game properly
handled should be given the heartiest
encouragement.

In answer to an attack on the game
by a Chicago minister. O’Hara paid: I
have knowm some very splendid boys,
clean-cut and devoid of bad habits, who
were professionally in the fighting

known many men of high standing who |

THE WHOLE FIRM.
It Is Willard alone when there's fighting
on tap. *
But in matters concerning Spondulix
or Bores
It’s a blooming quartet out for all It can
get.
And it’s Willard and Curley and Fra-
zee and Jones.
Perpetual motion has been discovered
at last in thp form of the three cullud
heavyweights McVey Jeanette and
Langford. Jeanette defeats Langford.
Langford defeats McVey and McVey de
feats Jeanette, and so on around the lit

Um, yum, but won’t these McFarland

goes over. Seven promoters connected

by offering the pair jter cent of the

At that the 10 per of the kind of a
