News From the Capital.
Washington d. G.
March 20. 1913.

As intimated in the last letter
the newspapers have had a lot to
say about the Inauguration of
Woodrow wilson, but they did
not say what was palpable to
every man in Washington who
has lived here for fifteen years
as I have, that the following was
not 100000 hut 100000 people,
which is 100000 more than has
ever come to an Inauguration in
the National Capital.
1t was a soul-inspiring and soul
stirring spectacle, and when
Wilson was inaugurated, he was
indicted into office by the big
gest crowd that has ever filled
the streets Of Washington and
not one-ten-tenth of them hope to
get offices under the present adj
mi~niStratiOn.
Wilson was the choice of the
people, AMI doubly so because
he was thee right man in the
right place. What he has done
since aus President has convinced
the PEOPLE that he was the right
man to elect for the reason that
he believes in the people and is
going to take their saysO instead
of those who usually direct the
President. y., .,o
President Wilson is a Demo
erat and will deal with the Peo-
pie as a Democrat should. He
will not be partial to any section
or any man. He has shown this
as he has progressed as a Presi-
dent and will continue to show
it as he grows Older as a Presi-
dent. He IS being shown up as
the President of the community
at large without any regard tor
politics whatsoever and will con-
tinue to show it as long as he
, is tle President of the United
States.
He will prove himself to be
Just what he considers himself,
President OF the whole people
, without any regard to politics.
1 President Wilson has asked
, the Secretary of Agriculture to
look into the bill of my friend
: Lever of South Carolina, and
report to him if there is amy
thing the matter with it that II
shonld not pass the special SEES
sion of Congress which is called
for \pril LIST. The truth OF the
matter is hat the Committee wllI
. appoint a day on which to see
! the Secretary and explain tC
I him Mr.. Levers bill in the in.

There is no reason why it shoul'
Q not he passed because it is t'
b the interest of the people that j
4 sh0lld be; otherwise, you woult
I not have seen a Democrat IN
. Producing it. The passage o

that it will cut down the charac

and thus places them all IN tn

WOULD ELIMINATE
POPULAR PUNT-OUT
Tad Jones Makes Suggestion to Foot
ball Eules Committee--Numberin
System Also VIII Come Up.

Tad jones, former star quarterback
IT Yale, has made q suggestion to the
football rules committee for considera-
ton when that body cOnvenes in New
York soon to consider the playing code
Jones 5 suggestion relates TO the kick
ing OF goal after touchdown has
been made, and he advances good rea-
sons for change. He argues that the
ball should be kicked from a spot di-
rectly in line with the place where the
ball was downcd when the touchdown
was made. In other words, he would
remove the privilege of punt-out man
which is so popular when the touch
down is not made .close to tie goal
posts.
Jones contends that the punt-out is
not competitive and hence il should
have no place in football There is
practically no defense for it. and it
depends entirely on very slight
amount of kicking skill on one side,
the other team being unable 10 prevent
the kick or the catch. As goal, fol-
lowing q touchdown, occasionally de-
cides a game. Jones figured that the
team which can put the ball behind
tho pests has no more chance than the
team which scores near the side line
the Punt-out putting the teams on even
terms fer the try for goal. Thus
there Is no premium placed on getting
the bali over the line OF what should
be the nest objective point
That the numbering of players sin
again come up for discussion at the
rules committee meeting is an assured
fact. Last year the football doc
tors held 4 long conference on this
point ANA though the majority voted
against making it i rule all agreed

WANT TO COME BACK
Dixie, Light, Solomon and Berran
Among Those Who Would Like to
Wear Local Uniforms-Jimmy Burns
Probable Choice for Greenfield.

+. L. Breckenridge Brattleboro' s
baseball manager for 1911 and 1913,
has been engaged to pilot the local
team through the Twin State league
season Of 1914. This action was taken
by the directors of the Brattleboro
Baseball association at Il meeting held
last evening. For some time past It has
been known that majority of the di-
rectors were strongly in favor of hir-
ing Breck again and their final de-
clslon IN the matter will not come as
surprise. Ills engagement frees the
directors from all uneasiness about the
outcome OF next season financially. and
the TACT that practically all of the play-
ers Who finished last season with him
have expressed Il wish to play under
nm again gives him a good nucleus on
winch to build Il 1914 pennant winner.
Under Breck s. management Brat
tleboro S 1911 team not only won the
Twin State league pcnnant. but was
put through the season ut an expense
that made It necessary to use less than
500 from the association S guarantee
fund. After the disastrous season in
1917 Brock was put at the helm
again last spring. Starting under the
impression that the league salary limit
was 4 thing to be respected he soon
learned that honesty could not Toe made
winning policy Toward the end of
the season, however, :. Breck" got to-
gcthcr team that made all OF its com
pcttors travel one of its accomplish
ments being to take six straight Games
from the club that eventually won the
pcnnant. Financially last season came
out better than was generally expect
Ell, IT beng necessary to take from the
guarantee fund less than $3.50. This
LETT balance large enough to Wipe out
the 1872 debt and carry forward be-
tween 5000 aud $1,000 for next wear.
Among the players who have writ.
ten : Breck that they would like To
play under him next season are Der
ran, solomon, Dixie, Light and Proulx
OF last year 5 team. Berran and solo
mon, OF course, have signed with teams
IN organized ball but their feeling
toward the Brattleboro management
means no doubt that they could be in.
duaed to come here in case they aid
not make good in their new berths.
Brock S plans for 1914 have not
taken definite shape, but he has already
made up has mind to get together i
team that will be in the pennant race
from the first inning of the first game
in the schedule
In engaging him the directors have
shown their appreciation of the fact
that sound business management i
what counts most in the long run-a
view that IS shared by considerable
number of the subscribers of the local
association.

Some Of tho Zig rnen in football
have decided that it is necessary to
restore the field judge, and motion to
this effect will be made at the forth
coming meetings of the rules commit
tee. Another way of looking at the
question is that Il game which requires
the services of four officials in cuforc.
ing it's rules requires to be simpbfied
Immediately and radically. Competent
Officials are too scarce TO waste four
on one game.
Francis Eaton, well known sport.
ing writer of Boston. objects to the
proposition to eliminate the right of a
pitcher to Intentionally pass Il bats

were confined to restricted lateral linn
its the pitcher would be obliged to
send the ball near enough to the plate
Tor q batsman with club to reach il.
That 5 Il new way of looking at it, for
everyone who has attended big league
games has seen catcher step well off
TO one side ana take four pitched balls
that The batsman could not possibly
stand in his box and reach
