idol at the West and South Side ball

has been i'll for two years. but it was
not until a month ago that he gave up

TIME self effacement of John
Arthur Johnson is of no i'm
mediate help to the white
race.
No matter what may be said on
the subject and how the public
may choose to figure out a techni-
cal and a tactical reason for put
ting him out of the championship
he remains the champion still and
always will be so regarded.
And another thing sticks out
prominently when we are told to
hope for the early return of SUI
premacy of the white race There
are exactly three large, dark clouds
on the horizon that must be tapped
before such a situation can be
brought about.
No White Man Capable.
These clouds are labeled Jean
nette, Langford and McVey, If we
could but find a white man capable
of sloughing either one of them we
might find cause for rejoicing, but
alas and alack, there isn't a white
person in sight who stands the
ghost of a chance with them.
So what matters it if Johnson
does retire. speaking now Of white
hopes? The title may revert to
white man in time and that man

One must know that Johnson is
pretty sick of the fighting game
when he will deliberately turn his

could gather as easily as he gath

the lure of the coin amounts to

THE frequent arguments that
arise over balls hit under the
row of signboards in right field
aren't really necessary. It has been
agreed that players are entitled to
what they can get" on balls hit
there, That makes it necessary for
the outfielders to do a lot of undig-
nifled scratching and scrambling
and paving to get the ball out in
an attempt to hold the runner at
third. Crawling under fences after
the pill isn't legitimate part of
baseball. All this trouble could be
obyiated by boarding up below the
signs. Then no ball could go un-
der, and every bali which went over
would be a legitimate home run.
