and news service for the public.
The work on the directory is being

The white papers are coming to re-

Wider publicity for the facts Of Ne
gro progress and problems Of race ad-
justment is being everywhere secured
through heartier and more systematic
cooperation among Negro editors and
correspondents. Today men have q
better chance than they have ever had
before to secure accurate and timely
facts concerning the struggles and sue
cesses Of colored people. especially In
the south. An important factor In the
widening and deepening Of public in
terest in the Negro as a progressive
and vital element in American civiliza-
ton is the National Negro Press asso-
citation, organized in 1900 and given
new life in 1912 at the Chicago meet
ing of the National Negro Business
league.

Those fraternal organizations that
sell liquor at public entertainments
cannot hope to draw respectable
crowds and have quiet gatherings, be.
cause they are violators of the laws
Of the state and are responsible for
many alterations, which may result
in murder. People who care for in
toxicants may carry them or buy them
from taverns, but should not be sold
such refreshments by members of
these organizations. There are few
places where Negroes are allowed to

men in these organizations and they
will draw better crowds, when they
advertise mo liquors sold on the
grounds" We also know that Hon. W..
r. Morris is the recognized head Of
two organizations-The Elks and
Knights Of Pythias, and he would fill
his position better of he would bring
this matter before the members Of
these fraternities. There is no rea.
sons why the public entertainments Of
this city should not be in every way
commendable. We are not attempting
to depreciate the standing of our fra.
ternities. or making any apologies.
This is but the plain truth. Let Mr..
Morris get busy and use his influence
to change things. It is too bad that
our leading Negroes often condone
disgraceful conditions. We expect to
have our lowest element entertained,
but 1t should be done by individuals
Of that set, and not by organizations
under the name of secret societies,
whose obligations are sacred and
ideals are divine.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE.

We claim to be the best advertising
medium of the Twin Cities, and when
you're not advertised in the Twin
City Star, you need not show-thats
all. Because the people read the
Star for the news. especially in Min
neapoIis. The day Of the Town Crier
is past. Be up-to-date, Advertise and
Pay for IT. A newspaper is the best
medium. 1t reaches the homes and
firesides of people who attend public
entertainments. These people never
go out and loiter around and read
hand-bills and hang-up notices. They

Magee Sets Hot Pace With Five

year-that of hammering out A four
Dagger when all the bases had oc-
cupants-but the season still is in
its infancy, as Charles Hercules Eb-
bets would say. CraVath has to share
with Alva Williams. of the Senators,
the distinction of having smote for
the circuit when acting as a sub
swatter and Sherwood Magee has 70
share with Charley Stengel, of the
Superbas, the honor Of having con-
tributed two four baggers in the
same controversy. Stengel. like Ma
gee, got his brace of four baggers of
a southpaw, Otto Hess. of the Braves,
being the man whom the Brook
Ignite stung. The number OF home
runs made by the Phillies this year
and the pitchers off whom they were
made will be found below:

Phillies eventually won out 3 TO 2.

F. Otto chose a psychological moment
for his homer inserting II into the

would have tumbled the Phillies into
second place. The lift tied the score
and in the eleventh the Phillies won

Every time | sent man to the
box In the first part of the season, |
sent a prayer with him, and usually
II did no good"
The theory that a team can win
with bad pitching was long ago dis
proved in baseball. The best club in
the world cannot. The addition Of
Ames. Devore and GrOh has put new
life into the Thinkers" This may
sound like criticism of McGraw's
Judgment I'm making the trade, but, in
reality, IL Is a boost. A change of
venue, as the lawyers say. often
benefits a ball player for many rea-
sons, the same as a change of climate
will help the health of sickly per
son. Sometimes the fans get on" "a
man, and ne becomes discouraged in
the city. He will 90 somewhere else
and play his head off. Then the
traded player always wants TO i'm
press on his Old boss the fact he has
made mistake in letting him go.
NEITHER Devore nor Groh was
IN good enough to play regularly
on the Giants this year, I'm McGraw's
opinion. and his judgment Of a ball
PLAYER has been confirmed by his rec
ord. This does not mean that Nc
Graw thought either one was a poor
performer. but he believed he had bet
ter men to put In the game every day.
Players sitting ON the bench are of
small benefit to any manager. The
Giants needed a pitcher for the com
ing dOuble-headers. McGraw liked
Fromme and got him. Wait until he
has had a fair chance, and he viii
vindicate McGraw.
DevOre has always been a fast,
game ball player, and, contidentially,
McGraw hated to let him pass along,
but Tinker insisted and refused to
accept anyone else. Josh has been
going great guns since he Joined ont
with the Thinkers" and l hope he
keeps it up. Ames has always had
hard luck in New York. He has
shown real stuff in Cincinnati. and
will doubtless build up a reputation
for himself there. New York is the
hardest city in the country for a ball
player 10 make good i'm, because every
body is always out 70 beat the Big
Town boys.
THE trade viii probably work out
l. In the same way with Hal
Chase, who was passed along to the
Chicago White SoX by Frank Chance.
IL won't be two weeks before fans
win be saying that Chance was crazy
10 let a player like Chase go, because
Hal viii get his back up and play for
his life. But the Yankees were in

IN st. Louis the Philadelphia club
i will strike no soft spot, particu-
larly if it meets the mercury at the
nlace we found It. The Cardinals are
accustomed to playing in that heat.
They are a great in-and-Out bunch.
one day they. will act like champions
and the next like a flock Of dubs. 1t
is not a steady team. If the Phillies
catch them In a championship spell,
they want to watch out. Griner'
Harmon and Sallee are moving very
smoothly in the pitchers box right
now. Let me conclude by saying that
I do not fear the Phillies for the pen
nant. Maybe the st. Louis club looks
better to me, because 1t has always
been a hard crowd for the Giants to

IN NINTH ROUND AT AKRON

in the ninth round Of "a scheduled t2-
round bout by the knockout route

NNE Of the reasons why the Phil
lies. after reaching the top
rung Of the championship lac
der on May 4, have managed to keep
possession Of II has been the ability
Of the players to punch out four
baggers. The Quakers easily are
the home run kings of the major
league world, and 10 May "a, in
elusive. had made sixteen Of he
siXty-eight circuit clOuts manufac-
tured i'm Tom Lynchs organization.
To the same date in the American
League twenty eight four bag blows
had been struck, so Dooin's Daisies
have TO their credit one sixth OF the
major league home run output Of
1918.
Sherwood Magee, Luderus and
Cravath are the dangerous athletes
on the Quaker combination. These
three men have whaled out twelve
four baggers and have broken up
many a combat Magee has five
homers to his credit, Of which three
were secured off right handlers and
two off left handlers. Sherwood OBJ
tanned his first loop the-lOop swat IN
April 20, off Hub Perdue OF the
Braves; his second and third off
Ruhe Marquard, Of the Giants, on
Nav 5. his fourth off Marty O'Toole,
81 the Pirates. on May 70. and mis-
fifth off Howard Camnitz, Of the
same combination, on the following
day.
Luderus Has Four Homers.
Fred Luderus has poled four
homers, his first hit OF this kind be
ing made at the Polo Grounds off
JEFF Tesreau and the next three wal
lops being manufactured in Phila-
delphia The pitchers "Ludy" mall
treated at home were Steele. OF St.
Louis, and Harter and Brown, Of
Cincinnati Luderus has had the
happy faculty Of making his four
baggers 81 opportune moments, for
the hits off Steele and Brown won
games for the Dooinites.
Cravath a Great Hitter.
Cravath, who. If he could field as
well as he can hit. would stand an
excellent chance or winning the car
offered by Hugh Chalmers, Of De
troit. for the National Leagues most
valuable player, has three homers
10 his credit. He gained the first
while acting as a pinch hitter, smit-
ing the first ball served him by
Christy MatheWson and promptly
driving Il out OF the lot. Rube Mar
guard and Howard Camnitz are the
other Fingers whom Cravath has
Jared for homers.
