TO PREVENT
CHICAGO, May 1 (by Associated
Press).—Gambling on baseball games
will be curtailed this season, accord
ing to officials of the Chicago National
League baseball club, who have started
^ a movement against the practice. It
is claimed that numerous bets are
made on the strength of who the op
posing pitchers are to be. This year,
I^Miager Fred Mitchell declares, he
will not announce his pitcher until the
time his batting order is handed to the
»
umpire, just before the game.
Manager Mitchell,, whose home is in
Boston, declared he knew of numer
ous instances in which wagers were
placed after the pitchers had been se
lected. He said he also knows of a
certain hotel waiter who was paid $5
a day by a gambler for obtaining from
the visiting manager the name of the
pitcher who was to perform for the
visiting club that day.
“Most of the betting is done in the
pool rooms down town,” said Mr.
Mitchell, “and I believe if the propri
etors of these places do not know who
is going to pitch they will not be so
keen to accept wagers. By withhold
ing the name of the pitcher, I believe
much of the gambling will stop.
“If we desire to keep the sport pure,
gambling must be eradicated. The
f^hicago club will do all it possibly can
to stop it. President William Veeck
always has taken steps to keep it out
of the ball park in Chicago, and I
am going to attempt to keep the men
in the pool rooms from betting by giv
ing out the pitcher at the last moment.
“Gambling is not to creep into the
game and ruin it for the future fans
and players if I can help it,” Mitchell
continued, “and if there is the least
suspicion of it on my team an inves
tigation will be made and the man or
4 men who are apprehended will _ not
stay a minute.”
FARMERS RETURNING
FROM CITIES TO SOIL
GREAT FALLS, May 1 (by Associ
ated Press).—Farmers who left this
section because of last year’s drought
are returning in large numbers, ac
cording to real estate dealers who
have had their property listed for sale.
Officials of the state department of
agriculture declare they believe that
virtually all of the farms which were
deserted last year will be reoccupied
soon.
In many instances farmers left their
families on the farms, supporting them
by working elsewhere. t

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Permanent bonds bear
ing the full number of interest coupons
will be issued beginning today to re

bonds of the first, second and third
Liberty loans, John U. Calkins, gov
ernor of the Twelfth Federal Reserve
Bank, has announced.
The decision to set the date for May
1, he said, was dictated by the fact
that holders of bonds of the first and
second loans must present them for
conversion prior to June 15 and May
15, in order to receive the benefit of
the increased rate.
Bonds of the Fourth loan will not
be exchanged at This time, but prob
