SPEAKING OF SPORTS By ROBERT McSHANE Rloaid by Wtitorn Nwspopr Union 7 HpHE Indianapolis club of the American association annexed a grand guy recently when Charles Leo ("Gabby") Hartnett was named playing-manage- Gabby went back to the minors after 20 years In the majors, 19 of them with the Chicago Cubs. Dur-ing those 19 years, Gabby played on four pennant winning teams and managed one of them. The jovial, red-face- d catcher came to Chicago In 1922 from the Worcester, Mass., club of the East-ern league. For almost a score of years Gabby was the outstanding catcher in the circuit and the idol of Chicago's great North Side. In July, 1938, he succeeded Charley Grimm as manager of the Cubs and was the greatest single factor in bringing a pennant to Wrigley field. His twilight home run against the Pirates that year will be remem-bered as long as baseball is played. When Gabby was releasedfby the Cubs at the end of the 1939 season, to be succeeded by Jim Wilson, he bad earned a lifetime batting average of .297 and a fielding per-centage of .984. During his 19 years with the Cubs, Hartnett played in 1,926 games. At bat 6,282 times, he accounted for 1,867 hits. During this time he made only 142 errors, averaging slightly more than seven a season. He led National league catchers in fielding percentage for seven years 1925', '28 and '30, and '34 through 37. He caught 100 or more games a season for 12 years, eight of them consecutive, for a league record. Gabby accepted 452 chances without an error from August 19, 1933, to June 20, 1934, also a record, and caught 1,759 games, more than any-oth- er backstop. Cold statistics aren't enough to furnish an adequate indication of Gabby's worth to any ball club. The big Irishman is a baseball player through and through. Like any real ball player, he hates to lose. He never quits fighting and he expects his team to battle it out every inch of the way. Indianapolis fans will like the beefy Hartnett. His popularity In Chicago never was questioned. It's true that he lost some of his bluff geniality when he became manager of the Cubs, but conditions at Wrig-ley field were not too promising at any time during the Hartnett reign. Gabby had too many problems on his mind and many of those prob-lems still remain to be solved. Los Angeles Girds Itself for All-O- ut War With the U.

First Christmas Seals Originated in Denmark To Fight Tuberculosis That harbinger of the holiday sea-so-the cheerful Christmas Seal, has recently made its appearance as the National Tuberculosis asso-ciation opened Its annual drive for funds to continue work in the pre-vention and cure of this dread dis-ease.

The ireTTiJriTI 'n8 year 106 flrst eals were ,old- - ie immediate idea gained almost Ity and soon spread '-- to neighboring coun-tries.

HAPPYjfovttAH C The campaign was frwvwwi so successful that the next year the National Red Cross adopted the idea and conduct-ed a nation-wid- e campaign. From then until 1919 the Red Cross con-tinued the annual Christmas Seal distribution. In their last year the returns had risen to nearly $4,000,000.

Perhaps Official Wasn't Very Good at History A famous alienist met a certain prominent official. After some discussion on the mentally un-sound, the official asked: "Doctor, how do you really tell il a person is insane?" "Oh, we merely ask a few or-dinary questions which ordinary people can answer correctly." t "What type of questions?" "Well," replied the alienist, "this sort of thing: Captain Cook made three voyages around the world and died on one of them. Which was it?" "Oh, I say " objeoted the off-icial, "I'm afraid I've forgotten which one it was." Bowling the Right Way By LOWELL JACKSON (This is one of t series of lessons ia bowling or Lowell Jtckson. one of the country's outstsnding bowlers. Mr. Jsck-so- n bts eighteen 300 gsmes to bis credit tnd has a lesgue syeragt of 210.) r am Curve ball is most difficult. THE CURVE BALL. The curve ball is the most difficult delivery to use successfully in the bowling game, since it requires a tremen-duu- s turn of the fingers and wrist when releasing the ball. This delivery is not recommended for beginners or the mediocre bowl-er because of the strain on the hand and wrist and because it takes a lot of practice to control the curve ball. When delivering a curve, the bowler moves his approach to the center of the alley and lays his ball down at a point in the center of the foul line. The ball is aimed to the right side of the alley and if proper-ly delivered, it will curve back into the 3 pocket. - Occasionally, a bowler will find an alley that seems to have too much polish on it, and if he does, he will find he can use a curve to advan-tage. On a fast alley, which provides little "gripping" for the ball, an expert bowler will not resort to a curve, since a ball aimed for the gutter in the hope it will curve back Into the 1- -3 pocket may continue straight on into the gutter.

Post Office Auctions Gifts 'Lost' in Mails Uncle Sam will soon make profits by selling Christmas presents sent through the mails, but he would much rather deliver them and he would, if he knew where they were supposed to go. American people are so rich and in such a hurry that they don't even take the pains to see that their gifts sent by mail are properly wrapped and addressed. Of course, all are not careless about it, but the post-men do have a hard time during the holidays. Extra mail clerics receive millions of dollars in wages, and a good share of this extra force is kept busy handling poorly wrapped and im-properly addressed packages. Many thousands of Christmas gifts will be sold because they contain no clew concerning their fender or the intended destination. The "unad-dressed- " department of the inquiry section of the post office in large cities resembles a warehouse. Some gifts cannot be held long, such as alligators from Florida, live chickens, turkeys, or fruits. These are quickly sold and the sale price held in a fund which is ultimately turned into the treasury. When all efforts have been exhausted, the un-identified and unclaimed packages are sold by an auctioneer. Patrol Chief '.war - 2 r .)f , . , . - 5n MaJ. Gen. John F.
