DeIicacy in Georgetown.

To the Editor Of The Washington Times:
Please give me space enough in your valued
paper to thank the city authorities for what
they have done in Georgetown. There are few
cities more picturesque than old Georgetown,
and no more picturesque spot in it than Road
Street, from Twenty ghth to Thirty fifth.
With a delicacy Of sentiment remarkable
in those 50 old, the city fathers have pro-
vided about four little gas lamps for this en-
tire section Then, too, policeman is al
lowed TO appear in it after dark. As a result,
Road Street is one of the very darkest and
most lonesome streets in Washington. bar none.
Of course might be knocked on the
head theTeabout. and no one would be the
wiser. but that only adds a dash OF romance
TO a stroll along Road Street.
The care Of the city fathers in adding to the
picturesqueness of this old street has been
commented in the very strongest terms. 1t
is only right that everyone should know how
their efforts in this direction have been appre-
GATED Sincerely. GEORGETOWNIAN.

themselves. That the people of Cleve-
land have faith in him Is atteeted by
the fact that he has twice been elected
mayor by large majorities, ard has
practically transformed the Ohio me-
tropolis from a Republican into a
Democratic stronghold. His admins
tratlon has at least been free from
those scandals which crop out in al
most every municipality, and his ef-
forts IN behalf of taxation reform and
The equalization of assessments ought
TO commend themselves to the friends
Of good government.
Within a few years Tom johnson
has come To be the absolute master of
the Democratic situation in Ohio,
which, while It may not afford him
more than an empty honor, neverthe-
less demonstrates his ability to com
mind, and minority party is not
infrequently more difficult 10 com
mand than majority parry. The
fact that there was so spirited an an
te-convention contest for the guberna-
tOriGl nomination between Mr.. John
son and Mr.. Zimmerman might be
taken as an indication that the Demo-
Gratis have some hope of success this
fall were it not that the odds are so
heavy against them.
A struggle for the distinction of be-
ing defeated Is somewhat unusual, but
perhaps Mr. johnson believes that his
magnetic personality will aid in the
canvass. AT any rate an interesting
campaign is assured by Johnson's
nomination. Should he be elected
governor by any chance he would I'M
questionably be one of the foremost,
IL not the foremost, candidate before
the national convention next year.
Should he be defeated by a narrow
margin, he might still command
strength as candidate for Presi-
dent, but should he be overwhelming
y defeated, as most politicians believe
he viii be, his field of future opera
tons will most likely be confined to
the boundaries of the city Of Cleve-
land.

To the Editor IF The Washington Times
As a dsintcrested but enthusiastic lover OF
college athletics, l would like 10 express my
appreciation Of the good work done by Michael
Thompson as araduate-manager Of athletics at
Georgetown University and my surprise at the
action OF the faculty in removing him at this
time.
Mr. Thompson las done wonders for George
town athletics. and has placed them on a
higher plane than they have been for many
moons When he assumed charge the mivcr-
sity was. as The Times said accused of an the
SINS IN the athletic calendar. Its name was a
hyword for violations OF the usual codes gov
erning sports, aud managers Of teams OF all
sorts felt when they played Georgetown that
they were going up against unknown propO-
sition IN the way Of professionals and men who
would be disqualified by the eligibility rules Of
any OF the other large institutions 1t was not
denied that Georgetown turned out some Won
dertul legitimate amateurs who were a credit
TO college sport but there were other promi-
nent athletes in the institution who were
openly charged by other coliegians and By the
sporting authorities with being tainted with
professionalism.
Mr.. Thompson took hold and slowly eradi-
Gated the greater part Of this bad od0r until
today the schools athletics are ON a higher
plane than they ever would have been had it
not been for the energetic actions of the gradu-
ate-manager. Il takes years for school to lose
bad reputation, and Georgetown today is still
feeling the effects Of its bygone misdeeds, bat
II believe that if Mr.. Thompson had been re-
tanned it would not have been long before the
carpinG critics would have been slenced and
Georgetown would have been ranked with the
most conservative colleges in the country. As
II Is, there is great fear that the athletic
management at the school viii fall into I'M
trained. and therefore incompetent hands, and
that the good results which Mr.. Thompson at
tanned after much hard work viii be disai-
pated in short time.
1t is to be hoped that the faculty will think
better OF its apparently hasty and untinely &C
ton, and that before the football season ar
rives Mr.. Thompson viii be found at his old
post. EX-MANAGER
