IF YOU have thought of Prince Albert as
tobacco for pipes only, you’ve heard only
half the story. Just take this for all wool
and a yard wide: P. A. makes the grand-
est home-rolled cigarette that ever poured
its fragrance on the air, fought to know!
First of all, P. A. is crimp-cut, which
means that it rolls easier and burns better.
Less waste with this tobacco that stays put
in the paper—get me? But even more
important, Prince Albert is real, honest-
to-Pete, quality tobacco. Your first pull

Don't forget that Grimth is sin-
cere in the belief and hope that the
good luck Ormsby first brought him
will repeat. «
How Does This Sound?
IPHEN I commented on ’the fact
* that the Nationals ought to
make plenty of money in the series
of games, scheduled on the way
north with the New York Olanta.
Griffith admitted the possibility,
then laughed, as he remarked;
“Aside from the chances of mak-
ing some money, I also played a
hunch when I arranged the games
With New York.
"I really believe the series of
games we played with the Giants in
the spring of‘1925 was responsible
for the winning of our second pen-
nant."
I asked him to explain whaa
seemed to me a conundrum, since I
could see no connection between ex-
hibition games and the American
League pennant.

In other words, clothes
that have the custom-tailor

And now for the first time
it is possible to get that kind
of clothes at a price that is

Several years ago, when Wash-
ington was winning its first pen-
nant. I noticed one day that Grif-
fith was sitting far down in the left
field pavilion, his box being de-
serted.
When I queried him about taking,
a seat so far removed from play, he
replied.
“This is a lucky seat. Ever since
J have been sitting down here the
club has been winning cunsistently.
I am going to continue to sit here
until I wear out the charm.”
Washington won the pennant
that year and "Grim" will tell you
he held down the same seat all sen-
son.

“A spring series for 1925 was ar-

“When New York won five of the

we went out and won five of the
next six. The series ended all even,

players out. e
In all Fort Worth got 34 hits while
the Legion team got six hits. But a
large majority of the Cats' hits and
16 of their 32 runs were scored in
the seventh, eighth and ninth in-
nings. a"
henton Scores First a
The first three players from Fort
Worth went out In order on a high
fly to right field, a strike-out and a
grounder to second The first two
Legion team members were struck
out and then Hundley got a sizzling
two-bagger over deep left field fence
And it was generally conceded that
this blow would have gone for four
bases in almost any ball park. Do
Smith, Fort Worth catcher, loaned
to the Legion for the game, follow-
ed Hundley and lifted a single over
second base and Hundley scored.
This was the last score made by
the Legion until the last of, the
ninth when. after two were out, the
home team scored three runs. Clark
went out second to first. Montgomery
fanned and 8. Moore walked. Cul-
lum got to first on an error and
Haynes, pitching for Denton, lifted a
two-bagger over the left field fence.
Moore and Cullum scored and then
Haynes scored when Nicholson sih-
gled into left field.
Morgan, Denton pitcher, went
fairly well until the first of the
seventh. He had allowed six runs
but the game was interesting and
he seemed to have plenty of stuff.

here has been exclusively a man's

This British baseball is exclusive
0 the London League, which is
made up of teams composed cf
sesident American players. These
Englishmen play the regular Amer-
ican game.. In Wales there is a
game played which is called base-
ball. but it is an entirely different
game, which might be Judged by
the scores running frequently into
the hundreds
The difficulty of popularizing
baseball among the English is due.
to the fact that athletic young men
lack the baseball sense. The child-
hood training in throwing, batting
and catchih. in the baseball man-
ner, is practically non-existent. But

"I think Helen Wills is a poten-

everything a star woman player
ought to have and I think she can
be induced to take up the game
seriously.
"She has the golfer’s instinctive
form and the balance that goes
with a champion's game
"Helen is better fitted for goit
than she is for tennis. Tennis re-
quires quick thinking, quick act-

better adipted naturally to the

Mary believes that under expert
tutelage Helen can be developed in-
to a golf headliner. Tennis and goll
do not conflict, she says
it may be recalled that when
Miss Browne finished her tennis
campaign in 1924, she practicea
