Sixteen-Year-Old Girl
Successor to Suzanne
MHe Leila Anet, aged sixteen, Is ;
bailed, os the tennis nlnver on
pable of filling the vacancy left by
Suzanne Lenglen, the former amateur
tennis champion. ~
Suzanne adnfth# that she expects to
njarry itatdwln N. (“Lucky”) Baldwin
of California, and that even now her
tennis days are over.
Mile Anet has been playing tennis
ever since she was strong enough to
hold n racquet, and scoring victories
over older adversaries since she was
thirteen years old.
She Is the daughter of M. Claude
Anet, well-known author. He fully
sympathizes with her ambition to be
come a court star nnd gives her the
benefit of hls amateur success, just
as the late M. Lenglen trained Su
zanne.

Struggle for National
League Pennant Narrow
For several seasons It has been
ngreed nnd demonstrated that the
struggle for the National lengue pen
nant lies among four teams, with the
other four merely in there to make
possible a 154-game schedule and to
fill up the second division berths.
New- York, Chicago, St. Louis and
Pittsburgh are the actual pennant con
tenders. Cincinnati. Brooklyn, Bos
ton and Philadelphia will fit Into their
old grooves In the second division.
The American league, despite the
supremacy of the New York Yankees,
has witnessed the rise and fall of a
number of other clubs, so that the first
division is not all booked up like a
tourist pullman until the season gets
well under way. Even the Yanks
tumbled right down into seventh place
when they ceased winning for a sea
son.
Bib Falk Tells Why He
Is Glad to Be Indian
Bib Falk, the lean Texan who used
to play plenty of outfield for the
White Sox when he happened to feel
like it, has more than one reason for
rejoicing in his trade to the Indians.
Ills first Is that he thoroughly hated
the Chicago management. His second
is that he likes Roger Peckinpaugh,
his former teammate, and wants to
play ball for him. His third is that
he is joining the club that has two
of the six good southpaw pitchers in
the league, for he doesn’t like to hit
against southpaws.
“I’m sure glad I’m on your side,”
he told Joe Shaute and Walter Miller.
“Now there’s only Pennock and Wal
berg left, and they say Tennock’s arm
may be gone.”
Manager McGraw Has His
Pitching Staff Intact
Manager McGraw has his 192S pitch
ing staff intact and expects Carl Hub
hell, who joined the Giants late in the
season, to declare dividends on his ex
perience gained under major league
fire. Ilubbell will be a starting pitcher
with Larry Benton, Fred Fitzsimmons,
Joe Genewich and Dutch Henry, a
southpaw who seems to have regained
his earlier form.
Carl Mays, the veteran underhand
performer, may Join the group ns ids
arm has recovered at least a part ot
its old cunning. John Scott, another
veteran, will be a valuable man in re
lief roles and Curly Ogden lias shown

out by the recruits with the end not
yet in sight.
Small Oat Hullers Now
Available for Farm Use
Small oat hullers with capacities of
45 to 50 bushels per hour are now
available for farm use. They are
usually owned by individual farmers
bt are sometimes used by a group of
neighbors or occasionally mounted on
a farm truck for custom work. Ma
chines of this kind, which can be
driven by a 5-horse-power electric
motor, will also hull and scarify clover
seed, crack corn, wheat or rye, hul
speltz or skin and crack barley. These
added uses of the huller help to keep
it busy, cutting down its cost per hour
of operation and lessening the expense
of making a more valuable feed out of
the oats crop.
