'r>HE recent exploding of 14-inch
gun at the army proving grounds
Il Sandy Hook, is a matter or tar
more vital concern TO us than most of the
community recognize. The disaster to
that gun is in a large measure the wreck
ing OF a system, and upon that system our
military ordnance experts have tenta-
lively placed the burden of protecting our
seaboards against hostile demonstra-
ton.
We are gravely assured that thor
ough and searching inquiry will be inst-
tuted by the War Department, but the
question is, "Will our coast defences be
the better when official calm is restored" ~
The man in the street is still likely 10 be
left wondering. but fortunately there are
some sources OF public information which
may help to a popular understanding OF
the circumstances that have led TO the
failure of this particular gun upon which
the ordnance department of the army has
been pinning its hopes.

ton Braves, or Miller Higgins, of |
the St! Louis Cardinals, there
may be another name added to
the long list of Redland failures.
Since Garry Herman broke
into baseball more than a decade
ago he has tried as hard as he
knew how to produce winner.
Money has been spent lavishly by
him and trades of all sorts pulled
off, but the jinx still sticks.
Managers have fallen down on
the job in Cincinnati only to go
elsewhere and bob up with win
ner; but win in Cincinnati why,
it's getting to be a joke of the
babeball world.
Joe Kelley was the first of the
failures. After several years of
Indifferent success, while toiling
for Hermann, he went to Toron-
to and produced a winner right
off the reel, and he has kept that
team up in the race every year,
except one when he was cajoled
into managing the Boston
Braves.
Ned Hanlon, Kelly's teacher at
Baltimore, followed his former
pupil as boss of the Reds. Han
Ions success with the red hosed
athletes was noticeable only for
its absence. Herman was really
grateful when Hanlon, Disguised
with baseball in general and with
the Cincinnati brand in particu-
lar, retired to his Baltimore domi-
Gle to enjoy the fortune he had

can be in the uncertainty of base
ball.
Although he had previously
won one pennant in the American
league and had lost another
through wild pitch only, Clarke
Griffith couldn't produce win
ner, in Cincinnati. But take a
slant at his success since leaving
the Reds. Taking the Washing
ton club at the start of the sea-
son, he has converted that peren-
NAL tailender into a real pennant
contender which has not yet been
counted out of the race by sin
gle critic the country over.
And now we come to the case
of Hank O'Day. Poor old Hank
1abored under the delusion that
umpiring in the National league
was the worst fate that could
come to any man. He sees his
mistake. He has worried more,
has lost more sleep and spent
more anxious moments since the
opening of this season than ever
before in his career. And his
troubles aren't over, for his team
is still slipping. Now he has be-
gun to count the days until the
October 6, when the Reds meet
the Pirates in the final game.
With these failures in mind, is
it any wonder that budding man
