Approve McLean Plan for State
Radio Station.
Raleigh, Feb. 10.?Enthusiastic approval
of Governor McLean's state
radio broadcasting plan, which has
?~i ?t?ontinn. was given
received n&Liuuas ?-?,
yesterday at a meeting of the representatives
of the 21 state departments
of government.
The principal purpose of the station
is the linking up of the various state
departments with the world, and giving
the state national advertising, but
the most novel feature of the plan
is that it is designed to be developed
around the rural school centers.
Governor McLean was greatly
pleased with a report from State Superintendent
Allen in regard to this
feature of the service, in which he
predicted that 500 school houses will
install sets as soon as the broadcasting
station is put into operation. The
station is to be made strong enough
to reach all parts of the couuntry, it
is stated.

Jennings, the human lawn mower of
organized baseball, accompanied by
Mrs. Jennings, Tuesday reached Asheville
for a short visit enroute to Sar
a toga, Fla., the New YorK uianis
Bpring training camp.
Mr. and Mrs. Jennings, at the Hotel
Langren here, said they would remain
here two or three days, not desiring
to make the jump from the
frozen north into the sunny South
without a few stopovers to break the
monotony of traveling.
Jennings for years was manager of
the old Detroit Tigers, winning American
League pennants in 1907, 1908
and 1909.
For the past few years he has been
assisting John McGraw with the New
York Giants, going to the man he
played beside in days of yore at
Baltimore when the memorable Orioles
were in the height of their

McMillan comes to terms
WITH JOHN McGRAW
Nehf and Greenfield Also Sign Contracts
With Club for Campaign.
New York, Feb. 10.?The New York '
Giants took right, title and intjerest
to a real pitching staff for 1925 yesterday
when they came to terms with
Hugh McMillan, who has been at
odds with the club ever since he
was suspended in July of last year,
and signed Art Nehf, clever and
crafty veteran lefthander, and Kent
Greenfield, star of the young righthanders
of 1926.
That was a real day's work, and
J. Tierney, pinch hitter for John McGraw,
who is now in Florida, as to
Giant standbys for the next season,
smiled all over when it was finished.
McMillan has been at odds with
the Giants ever since he was and
denly suspended on July 1, last year.
He brought suit for action for the
recovery of $2,028, which he alleged
was due him for back salary, and that
kept him in the good graces of the
club. Now he is willing to go to
pitching again, and let the minor differences
be worked out.
Nehf had a bad start last season,
and really didn't get in real pitching
condition until after August 1.
As to Greenfield, he was the youngster
sensation of the year, coming to
the rescue of the Giants when Nehf
and McMillan failed.
