GETS A $50 PRIZE.
"Cy' Neighbors Hit Tobacco Sign With
a Line Drive

''Cy'' Neighbors will get the $50
prize offered by the Durham tobacco
manufacturers for driving the ball
against the sign advertising that to-
bacco on the right field fence at the
ball park Friday. Neighbors is not
sorry. Spring training is expensive for
players as we'll as managers and sal
aries began only Friday, That fifty will
buy lot of smoking tobacco and until
pay checks begin to appear will prob
ably furnish a lot of spending money
for the remainder of the team.
Never in the history of baseball in
Topeka has the ball been driven over
the right field fence Many times have
the VictOrs been lost over the left field
fence. Neighbors' hit was a smashing
drive which scarcely curved toward
the earth until it crashed against the
big red bull on the east fence 1t was
one of the longest hits ever made on
the local field.
Neighbors is an old A. A player and
the hit he made would have brought
him some money in A. A. towns, where
the fences are further back. But Pen
nell was watching the ball and grabbed
it as it bounded off the fence and
Neighbors did not get as far as he
would have had the ball been given a
chance to roll.

CENSOR new HISTORY
High School Students Must Remove
Two Cuts From Book.

II was with elongated faces that the
management of the book entitled Forty
Years Of History in the Topeka High
SchooP' heard the decree made by the
powers that be- to the effect that
there could be no distribution of the
history until two half tone cuts OF
alumni fraternity groups-Delt Oms-
cron Omicron and Kappa Alpha Pr
were cut out.
Distribution of the issue of the books
was advertised to take place at the end
of the closing period of school FRIDAY,
but at the last minute the decision was
made, which caused something of
sensation among students
The Illustrations that caused the
trouble were printed as alumni CHAP
tiers, and not as active fraternities, and
on this account those especially inter-
ested in the publication were decidedly
''up in the air.
Lee Fergus, the editor of the publica-
ton, this morning said: 1.-The illustra-
the word 'disbanded' should have been
used instead of alumni chapter. We
were all up in the air about tit was
general misunderstanding"
I'm my judgment the titles would
have put the people concerned in an
embarrassing position" said Superin-
tendent L D. Whittemore in speaking
of the matter.
1T would have put the boys who were
fraternity members in the position of
having falsifed-it would not have
been justice to the boys"
According to the management of
the Western Printing company, the
printers of this $50 page history, the
high school students in charge of the
publication will sustain loss of about
SIS on account of the ordered change.
A thousand copies have been ordered,
and the distribution will probably take
place Monday or Tuesday.

SESSIONS A WEEK
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Committee Is Hur-
rying Its Work.

Washington. April 23.-With the
evident purpose of showing that there
was conspiracy between Clifford Pin
chot as chief forester, and certain of
his subordnates to accomplish the re-
moval of Secretary Ballinger, the de
Tense" in the BalIinger- Pinchot inves-
tigation today put on the stand Direc-
tor George Otis Smith, of the geologi-
cal survey to relate a conversation he
had last September with Acting For
ester Price.
MIR. Smith swore Mr.. Price had said
to him that I'VE like you, but we
don't like your Chief
Smith said he int1mated in reply if
he did not like Mr.. Ballinger he would
resign as director of the geological
survey.
Well. we know you are in an en-
barrassinG position, said the witness,
quoting Price, = but it won't last much
longer. If we don't get him one way
we'll get him another
The defense" regard this as an i'm
portant disclosure, indicating II Pin
chot were unsuccessful in bringing
about Ballinger's downfall by prov
ing the CLAWS charges he was prepar-
ed to attack him from another quar-
ter
Mr. Smith occupied the stand dur
ing the entire morning session with
the exception of the first half hour,
during which c. c. Hoffman, former
chief of the mineral division of the
land office, told how claims were clear
listed.
Mr. Smiths testimony dealt with the
relations OF his department to the
forest service in conservation matters
He was still on the stand under dl-
rect examination when the luncheon
recess was taken.
In order to accelerate the progress of
the injury the committee decided to-
dav to hold sessions on Thursday, Fri
dav and Saturday of next week.
