The King Georfs court lias reeeotly rendered a decision in the Herrell-ilaaon case, iMving attl«Bulalia Gray Herrell, three a a d a haU years old, daughter of BCr. aad Mn- Bobert E.

A deciei<m was hande^ down Friday by Judge B. H. L. Chichestw fai the Rerrell-Mason ease, whidi has been fai the circuit court of King George coun­ty siqee last January, leaving the tody of little Eulalia Gray Herrell, aged th^ae and one half.jrMrsf HI bands of her grandparento, Mr. and Mrs. Henry A< JKasen, of King George county.

The court declined to snnul the adoption order and held it valid,refus. ing the petition on the part of Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Herrell, parents of the girt; to change the .present statna a£ the child and return her in their cus­tody. The court also directed that a decree be drawn, providing for the vii-ita of the parents to tfafdr child and the child to hue patants, until she be­comes of proper age, aa conditions justify. ..

The Herrell-Maaott case has « i l i s t^ widespread interest and involved some. of the most pathetic phases that have be«i presented before a court in this sectiJMi of Virginis. It is stated tiiat Mr. and Mra.HerMl wiB Itave their attorneys take the case to tfaa stato snpre^ie court .of Appeals. .

Mr. Frank M. Chichester, of tiiis city, and Col. T. J. D o w ^ g , of Lan. caster, are coiinael for Mr. and Mrs. JCasoii. Judge Alvin T. Embrey ancT Mr. William W. Butsner rej^eaent Mr. and Mrs. HerreU.

The attraction which threatens to put the pretzels on the blink is a ball player. He ia employed by the Beading dub of the Intemi-tional League. He is a humdinger, which is slang for "the Babe Ruth of the Bushes." His name is Frank Brower, color, whit^; bom in America; weiphs 185 pounds; six feet'two and one-quarter inches tall; plays first base, hits well and has p«^ect table manners. But he wont remain in Readir.g very long, as he has been bought by President-Manager-Scont j ran deci< Clark Griffith of, the Waahington | Frank .Americans, and Reading may have to returrmrpretzela to Stay in linleligl

Brower originally was a pitohor. He graduated from Waahl^igton and Lee' University in 1914 apd airtwward sign, with the S t Louis terds.
