THAT ACCURACY BUREAU

The St. Louis Republic has estab-
lished a bureau of accuracy and fair
play. The bureau will investigate all
complaints of inaccuracy or unfair
ness in news and editorial articles.
Where deserved, corrections and re-
fractions will be published.
1t is a beautiful scheme. Every
newspaper, from the Bingtown Bazoo
to the New York World-which origi-
mated the idea two years ago-should
have a bureau of accuracy and fair
play. But why limit it to committee
of the staff appointed for the purpose
To be sure it is better to have one
polite and refined child in your fam
lily than to have them all uncouth and
nncultured. But ugh! How the 9TH
ers get on your nerves.
Likewise, fair play dished out by a
committee after formal investigation
and deliberation is infinitely better
than no fair play at all. But it has
drawbacks.
Not long ago a daily paper erron-
eously reported a mans death. The
man that wasn't dead came to the Of
fee and protested. Suppose he were
requested to fill out a formal COM
plant blank, duly alleging that he was
not dead as stated in the daily and
that he desired a retraction. And sup
pose he were told that he must wait
until the bureau of accuracy and fair
play had it's next meeting and could
investigate the matter of his death or
failure to die as reported, before any
thing could be done In the matter.
It would be fine for the reporter,
who, being waylaid by an irate sub
scriber with a grievance could
blandly announce, "Sir, I will report
your case to the bureau Of accuracy
and fair play for their consideration
in due time. Good day!"
But why not have every man on the
paper, from the publisher down to the
cub, a member of the bureau, instead
of limiting it to committee Of a Sc
lect few? wouldn't complaints be
fewer then, and adjustments more
prompt?

HELP THE ARMENIANS

And now again America must come
to the rescue of another race which
the war has made helpless. This time
it is the Armenians, probably the most
unfortunate people in the world. Be-
fore the war there were a million and
a half of them, of which less than a
million survive. Thousands are be-
ing massacred by the barbarous Turks
or are starving. Help must come soon,
or the race will be exterminated.
To whom can they look for aid?
Only to America now. And America
is still able to save these 100000
Christians. No one disputes the fact
that America alone saved the Bel
gians from starvation. We have also
aided the no-less- worthy Poles and
Serbians.
Probably the Armenians need help
most of all Just now. Columbians re-
sponded generously to the Belgian re-
lief cause. May they do as well this
time. Let us think of ourselves in
the same predicament. Most of US
can spare a dollar, and a dollar will
go long way toward saving life.

GOOD PITCHERS Who
were AMBITEXTROUS
ONLY Two Who Could Use Both Arms
Ever Attained Any Great
Success.

The successful amb;deXtrous
pitcher is almost nonresident. There
was Owen keenan,, who hurled for
Youngstown. Ohio, in 1855, doing
equally we'll with either arm. On
July 4, 1885, Keenan, beat New Castle
in two contests, working his left arm
in the first game and his right in
the second.
The famous Larry Corcoran of the
Chicago team in the early sos was
one of the great hurlers OF the period.
Larry lost use of his right arm dur
ing the season of 1885. This almost
broke his heart, for Larry was not
old in years. 1t dawned upon him
that he might make left-handed
pitcher, for he was always clever at
throwing with his left and used TO
practice frequently. In the season OF
1886 Corcoran signed with South
ern league team as a lett-handel
pitcher and reported for practice as
such.
He worked hard to gain control
for he developed rare speed. Larry
pitched few exhibition games, and
in one of them he kinked his remain
ing wing so badly that he was re
leased, so he had to quit the game
for he had run out of pitching arms:
:Windham, originally right-handed
pitcher, lost the use CT his pitching
arm through an accident. He made
a shift and began practicing with his
left arm. He was very successful
and made splendid record with the
Worcester team of the Eastern
league during 1903, so good. in fact
that he was signed by the ST. LOUIS
Americans for the season OF 1904
However, his pitching from the LETT
side was not natural for him, and in
stead of his arms getting stronger
and better he weakened his whole
left side and finally had to give UP
pitching.
