Baseball Honeymooners Spending
Vacations On Beaches of Pacific
BY M. C. LAKKIN.
VENICE, Jan. 12.—A circus
and three big league ball players
are wintering here. This story
is not about the circua.
Two of the ball players are hon
eymooners. The third has been
married three yearn. The honey
raooners are Otto Miller, backstop
for the Brooklyn Nationals, and
Hpliu- Oroh, Inflelder with the
Cincinnati Reds. Max Carey, out
fielder with the Plttsburg Pir
ates, 1b the third one.
This 1b the first triu to the
roast for Heinle Uroh »rU Otto
Miller, but Carey spent ajtfrealf at
Ocean Park, near here, itiat win
ter, before he went to 1-Jtgiolulii.
Helnie Oroh was the lightning
wooer. Ten days after he met
lil.« bride she was wearing his en
gagement ring. Three weeks after
they met they married. That wan
IBBt February. "And If we had
waited 40 years we couldn't be
happier," said Mra. Oroh.
The three players camp west
with the all-National team. They
played 30 ball games en route,
and arrived in San Francisco for
Thanksgiving.
A merry time these ball tossm
have had since their arrival at
Vnice. They have forgotten base
ball. The nearest they get to
it is an occasional game of catch
as they cavort on the beach in
their bathing suit*. They have
rented a 7-passenger machine and
are "burning up" the fine roads
of Southern California.
Of the three men, Carey is least
enthusiastic for the coast as a
wintering place.
"Of course, it's all right," he
said, "and a canal for a street
Is fine for a while, but I'm afraid
PETER'S
IFFLE
Tommy West, well known
baseball player, who was
badly burned some time ago
when he threw kerosene on
the kitchen fire, is happy to
day. The doctor has allowed
four half-healed fingers of
one hand to stick through
the bandages, and Tommy
wriggles them with delight.
West 'H growing new skin,
and his hands and breast
are healing rapidly.
• • •
After, watching a game of
ice hockey and seeing three
0 or four players carted to the
hospital, we wonder if Gen.
Sherman was right about
that war thing. Had he seen
a hockey game, perhaps he
would have used another ex
pression for war and let his
famous quotation refer to
hockey instead.

Les Darcy, Australian Sensation,'
Forced to Fight On Battlefields
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 12. —
Lea Darcy, the great Australian
middleweight, must shoulder a
rifle and add his strength to
Europe'swar.
One more soldier added to the
British firing line means a dis
appointment to American fight
fans. Jark Kearna, who landed
here recently, is one of the dis- j
appointed. He had arranged to
bring Les Darcy to the United i
States under a three years' con
tract, but the order compelling
the latest ring sensation to take '
up a new sort of fighting shat
tered Kearns' plans.
"All Australia made a protest
against Darcy coming to America,
with me," said Kearns, "until
finally the agitation reached such
a stage that the authorities posi
tively refused to permit him to '
leave his native land. Hundreds j
of mothers who had sent their I
boys to the front protested
against granting a one year's
leave, which I had asked of
Speaker Richard Maher of the
Australian parliament.
"They held that inasmuch as
they had offered up their boys to
the country's cause, the fact that '
Darcy was a champion pugilist '
shoujd not. entitle him to any
consideration.
I pleaded with the speaker
and even offered to put up a i
large cash bond to guarantee i
Darcy h safe return after one year
but he would not yield. He '
agreed with me that It would he <
a shame to send Darcy to the i
front to be shot, but he had to
heed not only his own conscience, 1
but public feeling as well.
"The agitation to compel Darcy
to go to the front became bo heat
ed that a close watch was kept -
upon the boy.as it was freely I
charged that I had planned to i
kidnap him." ,
