The two are said to have been enemies ever sines Bender came to Manhattan last fall. Tha feud between Lowman and Bender has been a matter of common un Eira Meeker and I. S.

Bheffer with their "schoonetrmobile" have undertaken a cross country trip of I.MO miles, following ths old prairie schooner roads that Mr, Meeker has traveled three times before with ox teams. The machine Is a typical prairie schooner set on a Pathfinder chassis, equipped with a stove, table, cooking utensils and hunting and camping outfits. Kira Mocker, who Is ti years old. Is making the trip In the Interests of a national transcontinental mili thronged by automobiles, history records this as the greatest world thoroughfare of record. Tou can aid In reviving this ancient way by casting your Influence to Induce Congress to pass a bill now pending, for Inaugurating this world for a great national highway, as a measure of preparedness, of development and of duty to perpetuate the memory and to honor the pioneers who first opened the way.

man was to serve as proressor of ths physical education, while Bender was to be the athletic director and head coach. This was a demotion for Low-man and a promotion for Bender. Low-man's friends In Manhattan business circles evidently have taken a hand la the fray and President Waters presumably has called tor the resignation of both officials. vi Lowman was not the onlymber of ths Manhattan coaching staff with whom Bender was at outs.

Blue eyes, brown hair, a rugged jaw, mean something but not so much as they used to. They're seeking ability. And that is not always measured in stature, weight and reach. Likewise in a car. They look her oyer, learn her wheel-base, note the tire sizes, ask the bore and stroke of the engine and then They make her perform.

They make her hit the trail, they roll her up the stiffest hill. They let her out on the straightaway; and they make her accelerate at slew speeds. It's the only' way to judge a car. And we're partic-ularly glad, because we have in the 8400 r.p.m. Chalmers a car that answers erery human wish.

Lee Ftohl declaresbut not boastfully that his Indian crew, is on top of the American league heap "because it has been playing champlonohlp baseball." "Team work is tho real secret of our success so far," ssserts the manager of the Cleveland squad. "The boys all are plnylng together.

Individual starring Is an unknown quantity with us now. And, bent of all, the utmost harmony prevails. When you get such a conblnation you usually find a team that Is up near the top. "Our pitchers are going good. Some folks think thiey will crack later on.

It wouldn't surprise me If they pitched even better baseball when warmer weather comes. Two or three of my slabmen are 'hot day' pitchers. Yet they have been able to win games in near sero weather and hold the opposition to a small number of hits and runs. "Yes, we have been getting some of the But Isn't that part of baseball? Furthermoi-e, we haven't had more than our share. To some folks It seems that a few of our victories have been lucky.

But those who have analysed our record find that most of the so-called luck we have bad 'has been nothing else but the seising an opportunity when It offered and then riding through on It to victory. "Those who say everything Has broken well for as overlook the fact that, Kay Chapman, our shortstop has been laid up with a bad knee. Chapman ranks as one the best short-fielders in the game. This loss naturally has weakened us to some extent, although Wambsganss has filled In ths gap very weU.

Our business is that of the present We are going every game just as If that- one game meant the pennant. That's the only' way. "How about How much has his presence meant? "Much." was Fohl's rejly. "Before the coming of Tria the team Itself ranked only ordinary. But when Tris got into the lineup it acted like an electric vibrator on the rest of the boys.

They knew what Trig could do, They knew about hla wonderful fielding skill and about great batting. Then they sat down and re-flgured their chances. "Without Speaker the boys figured they might be in the fight With Speaker they decided they Would; be In It. Trie filled them with pep and fighting spirit and the result Is apparent now In the standing of clubs. The Indians in 11 home games so far this season have drawn 94,000, Their total home attendance In 1915 was 164.

Should thay- go home from their eastern trip In, first place, it Is certain that during the following 10 games the attendance surely wilt total beyond 65,000, That would mean that the attendance for 20 games In 1918 would be greater than for all the home contests last season. As a road attraction the Indians are the real thing in the Johnson circuit just now. If they keep on drawing at the present rate, they will have played to more abroad crowds by June 1 than they did In all their road games a year ago. And, In the meantime, Jim Dunn, the new owner of the club, Is smiling a smile that continues to linger. DH HE-TOP (Continued from Page One.) HofclttMl.
