ENTERLoCKING DIRECTORATEs

Editorial in the st. Louis Republic:
Why abolish interlocking direc~torates?
For one thing, they put the business
man at the mercy of his competitor.
And the safeguarding OF the rights OF
the individual Is the chief end of law.
Here Ia an Independent iron nanI-
facturer who has an opportunity TO
make certain extensions of his BUSH
ness, IL only he can obtain necessary
funds. He applies to one of the great
banking houses affiliated with the
steel trust. At the table around which
the bank directors gather are found
certain OF the directors of the trust.
Is this situation one that makes for
fredow of commercial development and
expansion? Human nature being as IL
is, la 1t possible for those bank direc-
tors who are also iron manufacturers
to pass on the loan requested by this
iron manufacturer merely as a banker
would pass on it? Will not the qt1es-

minds: why should we let this man

REBUKES
AMERICAN CROWDS

Chicago, Jan. 28.-EIarry Vardon,
the great English golfer. in an article
in the January issue Of a golf maya
zine. rebukes the American public for
its bad while in attendance
at golf matches.
Vardon declares that not only at
Brookline, Mass, where the open
championship match was played, but
in every other city in America which
he and his partner, Edward Ray, Wis
TIED while on their tour last summer,
they encountered mannerisms on the
part OF the spectators that handicap
ped the players.
Vardon did not touch on the incident
at BrOokline, when it was said that
the crowd hemmed him in so tightly
near the ina holes that it interfere<l
with his play, hut said, in part. in his
article:
The American golf spectator has
much to learn. a golfer always wants
to give the public the best he's got
put up his best exhibition-but tho
American public will not let him.
Not only at Brookline, but in near
ly every other city where Mr.. Ray and
I played, the crowd never seemed to
appreciate good shots. and even mar
vicious playing at times never brought
a murmur OF applause. But, strange
ly enough, the crowd frequently would
break into cheers when some rotten
shorts were made" Continuing in his
article. Mr.. Vardon said:
1T - a pity that people in charge
of the olf matches in America do not
manal things better. They can find
an example in the way things arc
handle when we played at Vancouv-
er, r. c. The spectators there were
as keenly interested in the matches as
the Americans, yet the crowd was SO
mannerly, so well instructed in golf
etiquette that It did not cheer until
the match was over"

FARGO INTERESTED IN
GAMES AT GRAND FORKS

Grand Forks, n. D., Jan. 28.-The
basketball fans in the city will have
two games erved up TO them this
week, n on Friday night and one
on Saturday, both of them played in
the Y. M. c. A. gymnasium. The
one on Friday will be between the
Y. NJ. C. A. OF Fargo and the asso-
citation team of his place.
No one knows the strength of the
Fargo team at present. At the be-
ginning of the eason 1t was unable
to give this aggregation much trouble
but at that time it was only just or
ganized. On g. return date they ask
ed that 1t be put off until such a
time as they should suggest that they
might have time to see what ma
terial could be developed. 1t is owl
lent that now the team from that
association must be somewhat differ
emit aggregation than 1t was at the
beginning of the season. and will
probably put up an altogether differ
ent game than it did at the first
meeting.
On Saturday the Grand Forks high
school will either be put out Of run
ming for the state high school cham
pionship, or manage to squeeze back
into the game on an even footing

Of that place will meet the quintette
Of that place here in a return match,
the first one going to Michigan a week
ago when played there.
Before the game Coach Pittman
stated that he could not tell what
kind Of a contest his men would put
up as it was their first Of the season.
He stated that he was unable then
to tell just what to do in lettering
1t until a game had shown the weak
nesses. Since the defeat the locals
have defeated Lakota by a decisive
score and have been putting in some
hard work in preparation for the
game Saturday.
If the high manages to get away
with the game here, they still have a
bug bear in Minot, who last Satur-
day took a contest from Michigan by
a decidedly convincing score. Minot
has been doing this all season and
will undoubtedly be in the front ranks
when the final games for the cham
p1onship are pulled off It the close
OF the basketball season.

The three are Fred Falkenberg, who
