George Stallings calls him brainy and urges Yankees to hire him as coach while Miller Huggins seeks a Rochester replacement.

Souvenir Wheat Emblem Plate For Kansas Licenses
Topeka January 9 At least the first 100000 buyers of 1924 Kansas auto license plates will receive a five by eight inch metal souvenir bearing The Kansans emblem with a wheat bundle and the motto Kansas Grows the Best Wheat in the World. Kansas booster leader Woody Hockaday of Wichita says 100000 wheat tags have been delivered to the license bureau and funding is lacking to furnish 300000 more plates. The wheat tag costs four dollars each, and Hockaday has invested about four thousand dollars to date. The state plans to issue over 400000 plates this year with one wheat emblem mailed with each license plate. He suggests attaching the wheat plate to the front of the car for visibility. The enrollment grows while the project proceeds amid calls for treasury support and broader distribution.
