of the Ball Players By ED A. GOEWEY @k FPaIga Eddie Murphy, Chicago Americans DIE MURPHY, for several ons a Beaute of Connie Mack’s ampion Athletics, but recently sold to the White Sor, for whom he is covering right field, tells the following yarn of the most laughable triple play in baseball history. “The incident occurred during the latter jart of the 1913 season, when the Tigers were raking a strong bid for the flag. Late in the afternoon during a game between the 4ubletics and the forces of Hughey Jennings, ‘Doc’ Johnston reached third and Ray Chapman was on second with no one out. The score was 8 to 5 in our favor and the Tigs were trying hard to put over three runs and tie the score. Olson hit a ball over cond, with the infield playing back. Barry went after it merely to try and knock it down for a short single and that was what he se Ye BARRIS Thomas Jefferson “faner of the Declaration of Independence’ T NOBLE FOUNDER ofthe Democratic sie League himself by writing our Declaration of Independence— the document which laid the foundations of Free Government, not only for our own beloved land,but for.all the world, His country: men twice elected him President and will always treasure his memory jefferson was the most ardent advocate of Universal Freedom of his time,and it was his wisdom and feat which brought about the Louisiana Purchase. Every drop of his Virginia blood loved Liberty, and because he wanted Amenicans to be assured of it for all time he championed with all his might and main the signing of the Constitution of the United States. None of the Fathers of the Republic were more far-seeing than he and none knew better than he that a mild brew of barley-malt and hops is truly a temperance drink. Hence, in 1816, he wrote eee be tcaet Caprait Miller is abu to settle in this country and establish a brewery. I wish to see this bever pales Jefferson lived past his e ei year and all his life he was a moderate user of light wines and barley brews. It is unimaginable that were he alive to-day he would vote otherwise than NO to proposed succeeded in doing. “Of course, with the infield deep, Chap- nan tore for third, as the Athletics were planning their plays at first, but when he got there he found Johnston standing on the tag, though he could have scored easily and should have done so. Ray immediately tumed and rushed back to second, but found that sack occupied by Olson, who had reached it on his hit and Barry’s throw to Baker. “What are you doing here?’ asked Olson. “‘Oh, nothing,’ Chapman answered, ‘I’m | Jest pausing for a second before going back to third.’ “As a result of the scampering which followed, both Johnston and Ray were tagged out around third, and Olson, who tried to advance while the stuff was going on, was caught between bases. That gave us a triple play, which was lucky for Joe Jackson, Rext up, hit one against the fence which would have scored the three men had they remained on the bases. Johnston, of course, "sat fault for not scoring, but if Chapman had stuck to third there would have been re a single force out, and the men still on moe would have tallied on Jackson’s Another very funny play occurred this 8 years Anheuser-Busch have been tyrannous prohibition laws. For 5 brewing the kind of honest barley and hop brews which hoped in his day to see the National beverage of Americans. Exactly such a beer is BUDWEISER. Its quality, purity, mildness and exquisite fmm flavor have won its way to the top. To-day 7500 people are daily fq required to meet the public demand. Its sales exceed any other beer by millions of bottles. ANHEUSER-BUSCH: ST. LOUIS.U.S.A.
