There are two things we may look forward to, which will lessen our diff ficulties; one is that the rebellion in south California will simmer down, just as all attempts to buck the all- powerful dealers association, and the other is that we may edge in between the w A. A: and the A. A. A. and run our race under sanctions from each. Still. I am inclined to believe worry on this matter is premature and if as many suspect. Los Angeles is going to throw us down for San Francisco on a fall road race, there yet remains the run from San Diego. Personally 1 would be sorry to see the old Republican Cup Race given up. but if the selfish little automobile dealers and the disgruntled drivers, who constitute the body and bones of the new Western Automobile as soeiation. do as I predict, it will Le a case of have to. and the city by the hay will be our only hope"

STARS SELDOM
 SHINE AT START
First Year Phenoms Often Prove Lemons Under Fire and Everything Combines to Make Boss Say; 1" 1 Should Worry

A few big league managers are in- dulging in hopes and worrying at the same time They are the managers of the teams which rejoiced in the possession of phenomenal first-year pitchers last season. They are hoping that the same phenoms will come back in 1913 and prove to be just as effective, but they are worrying for fear Che youngsters will follow the example of other famous one-year pitchers and settle back into medi- ocrity
 There are any number of hurlers who have gone through the big league the first year as easily as Lutllei McCarty would beat bunch of featherweights. but tho pitchers who show gradual improvement arc the ones who are 0ac big stars and tie high -salaried mound men today.
 Addie Joss. Christy Mathewson, Joe Wood Eddie Plank. Ed Walsh, Jack Coombs, Chief Bender. Mordecai Brown, Ed Reulbach. and Walter Johnson are examples of the class referred to. Christy Mathewson was about the only one Of those .Inentiorca Sao was ! phenom the first year in fast company. The others started just fairly well and added to their effectiveness later on.
 Then there are King Cole, Grover Alexander. Chalmers Babe Adams Willie Mitchell, Gene Krapp. and Cow lngton, ;lsi well as others further back their first year out, only to disap- l.s aa Iy. Cole pitched Inc Cubs into a cham pionship and helped win the only game taken by the Cubs from the Athle tics He came back all right in 1911. but fizzled last year

CHAS. FISCHER IS
 FOR TUCSON ROAD
Is Head of Millionaire Com pany and is Banking on This State as Passage for Year-Round Route Across America

Arizona may yet be the connecting link in the national highway, and that highway will go through Phoenix, if the present plans of a number of en- thusiasts are carried to completion. Arizona lies right in the path of an all the year round route. as distinguished from the three and five-months in the year routes for which so much is now being done by some selfish localities not in Arizona.
 Among the most enthusiastic and earnest promoters of the highway scheme is Chas G. Fischer. the million aire Presto-lite manufacturer of In dianapolis. who has put much time and money into the project According to report MT. Fischer is strongly in favor of locating the highway where it will t.a of the greatest benefit to the auto mobile tourists of the country.
 In the near future Mr. Fischer ex- poets to make a tour through this sec ton of the country and it is the opin- ion of Vernon Coombs. general west ern sales manager of the Presto lite. that all that will be necessary to get Mir Fischer to use his vast influence to get a route through Phoenix is to have him compare tic southern road from an economic standpoint to the north route.

ONE PHASE IF
 THE M0T0RCADE
Need of Highway Protected by Culverts is Strongly Shown by Tour to Tue son; Road Built at Less Than $100 the Mile

Of inestimable good to the cause Of road building was the Phoersix Mo torcade Like nothing else that could have happened. it showed the need of proper highway protection on the state roads from the capital city to the other great towns of the state One of the most impressive things on the whole trip was the demonstration of the need of culverts for all the desert roads. that pretend to be highways for auto travel.
 1a desert country there is always strong drainage at certain seasons of the year And on the flats the water invariably takes courses across the country that are determined solely by the caprice of the elements. For this reason the surface is continually being cut by washes. weaving, struggling and meandering Wherever the washes cross the roads, there is trouble. There are straight up ard down banks that are not only impossible to the motor, but dangerous to horse and wagon travel When there is rain. these washes are running full. and will often stall an automobile by sheer weight of water
 The road may be graded. cleared and surfaced as much as you please. But the first rain will bring the water down in such volume that at every little. wash there will he a torrent, and the cuts appear like magic. As long as the desert is unforested and there is lit- tie vegetation that will check the rain water. this condition will prevail. and as there is no chance of the desert be- coming forcsted, it remains to provide man made outlets for the run off. The only solution is culverts, and this was impressed most strongly on the en- 2ineers, the governor. himself doing the lecturing on the Motorcade last week. The mead of great year round high way from Tucson to Phoenix is undis- puted The need of culverts to keep it open during the rainy season is also well enough known. Now it is up to the road makers to find a way to get the little bridges. Governor Hunt says, If some one will provide ls with the culverts. CT the money to buy them, We will put them in with convict la bor. I think we have demonstrated we can clear and grade roads with prison workmen at from s60 to $i00 mile. At least not over $1oO and averaging much less. We can put Tn culverts even moro clreaply. if we get the cul verts.'

 Roger was obtained from New York at a cost of four of the best players then with the Cardinals: Murray, F'romme. Karger and Bugs Raymond. lst the very lowest. these men were worth in the aggregate S40,O00.
 When Bresnahan was released, in- stead of being sold or traded, the club sacrificed a sale price of at least $15,- 900 or the equivalent in players.
 In addition, to get rid of Roger and his contract. the club had to pay at least ,500 to drop the incubus" so many clubs have sought.
 The grand total of this conservative estimate is S66,500.
