Gleason Would Make j Star of Bob Meuselj If Bob Meusel is traded to the Chi cago White* Sox, he will be a 50 per cent better player than be was with the Yankees. Bob Meusel should We one of the greatest stars in the game, whereas he is just in the ordinary class. Meusel's greatest fault is lack of ambition. Baseball is anything but a serious proposition with him. Bob Meusel has much more ability than his brother, Emil, of the Giants, yet 'he isn’t nearly so valuable a player. Huggins lacked the ability to make Meusel a fighter. Meus'M needs a man ager who will constantly prod him when he falls down. With Huggins his failures were usually overlooked without so much as even a reprimand. If Meusel goes to Chicago he will find Kid Gleason a much different in dividual than Manager Huggins. Glea son is convincing—-Huggins just the opposite. Woe to any ball player who fails to do what Gleason tells him to do. Gleason runs the Chicago club, and the sooner a player finds out that fact the better it will be for him. With New York, Meusel did just about as he pleased. He might be told to sarifice, but if he decided that the hit-and-run play was more proper, that Is what he would attempt. ' > Then again. Gleason has a kindly way of appealing to a player that will cause him to put forth his best efforts. | If such a method fails, Gleason, despite I his 50 years and then some, is Still able to physically chastise any player who will not respond to gentlemanly treatment. Some people seem to think they are^ doing wiong by living. \ Legal Notices (17} EXECUTOR’S NOTICE The .undersigned having Qualified as Executors of L&st Will and Testament of the late James F..Woolwin, deceased, hereby give notice to all persons hav ing claims against the estate of the said testator to place jthe same with the undersigned for payment on or be fore the -22nd day of December, 1923.

CHICAGO, Jan. f. — Elizabeth (“Honey”) Sullivan, 21, who police say is confessed queen of a bandit gang of eight sleek-combed youths, bemoans the loss of her pearl-handle automatic while in jail here preliminary to facing a score of robbery charges. No big Amazon, this holdup tigress de luxe, clad in her up-to-the-minute regalia. She is a fragile slip, with wide staring eyes and a mouth that in trigues even as it pouts. From behind the bars of the Jail here today ^Elizabeth told the story of her life—how she first took up banditry in quest of thrills and continued it to se cure money to fill her hope chest to be used when she was to wed her alleged bandit “sheik.” She said: “I want excitement like most girls do. I wanted to wear the latest clothes and be a flapper up to the minute. "All day long I worked in my moth er’s candy store and life looked pretty stale inside the little shop when I watched the automobiles filled with women all dolled up pass by and me with only one glad rag to my name and no place to go. “About a year ago I met Glen. He got to be my shiek and we planned to get married some day, although he’s not 21 yet. “Both of us decided in order to bring up a family properly and live in these modern babygrand, apartments we’d have lots of coin and the only way left for us to get it quick was with a gun. Needed Cash, “Jlaybe I was working for my hope chest.

They often showed the yellow feather. "But my shiek, Glen, was brave and they haven’t got him yet and I hop, they never will. “I guess it’s all up with our hopes for the double act because the cops have got most of the ewag. Blames High. Prices. “But I’ve had my thrills out of the game and will take what they hand out. No, I can’t blame anything, or anyone excepi m'abe if prices weren't so high for clotnes and things you need to set up housekeeping with—perhaps Glen and I could have got married and settled down without all the money we thought we needed. “It's sure hell for lovers these days. Why, you have to be almost a million aire to do the harness act right. “I’d never been in this mess on my own,” opined she. “It was my sheiKs —those damned baby kids 1 had along ! with me who turned yellow—that put the kibosh on my game. ' “But my own sheik 'Glen—he was the cat's ankles. “I don’t know how many Jobs wo pulled. We averaged five or ten a night. The kids always got cold feet Why, I feven had to stick a gun at tile head of one and threaten to blow out his brains if he up and ran.” The bandit queen and her arrested aids have been held to the grand jury under bond, and shortly be turned over to psychopathic experts for exami nation. — SIDEWALK TRAFFIC Pedestrians will be under as strict control as autolsts. if the suggestion of Police Commissioner Enright of New York is enforced.
