Gov. Stuart Tells Committee Stock
Raisers Need Comuetition.

GOV Stuart of Virginia. who raises
cattle as side line to his executive
duties. told House subcommittee to-
day that stockraisers have lost money
in the last year, due largely to the
lack of competition among beef pack
erS.
He was testifying in favor of the
Borland resolution to Investigate the

antitrust laws are being violated
I'm the thirty years that'I have been

one conclusion to reach about what the

Boston continues to rule a heavy

But even money is wagered for any
game RUDE MarqUard pitches against
the Red Sox. This is a remarkable
tribute to the southpaw who wasn't
good enough for the Giants. But it
isn't humanity possible for him to
pitch more than two games of the
series. He isn't built on irOn-man
lines.
National fans boost the Dodgers
because Of teamplay. But the Dodg-
eTs are going against nine men who
play together like a machine and
have the better of the pitching. They
face a team that is not a clouting
aggregation, but has the happy fac
ulty of rising to the occasion at the
crucial moment and hammering the
best pitchers hard.
In their engagements with White Sox
and Tigers during the closing stages

average. They needed runs, and they
got them.
Coach Stages Maroons get away

Prendergast pitched good ball
against the Sox Friday, almost as
good did Claude Williams. But the
Thinks are not used to baseball as it
is played in the American league. In
the third Eddie Collins scored from
first base on a short double by Joe
Jackson simply because he was pull
ling the unexpected and took the
jump on his opponents.
Kelly knocked down Joe's drive,
then made a desperate try for the
Dixie Flyer at second. Collins sim
ply>kept on running, and landed cas-
lily.
Leslie Mann is buIking largely as
the North Side hero Of this struggle.
He has hit all South Side pitchers
and his defensive work has been Of
the highest quality. He stopped
Felsch at third when Hap tried to
make three bases on a blow to the
fence in left, and later shot John Col
Inns dead at the plate when the Sock
tried to score from second on a sin
gle by Eddie Collins.
Both of Mann's throws were line
shots that travelled accurately to the
man awaiting them.
Some of the able dopesters will get
a rest today. The worlds series
starts in Boston between Red Sox
and Dodgers, and we will get relief
from the eternal psychological angle,
with the experts basing their predic-
tons on whether certain players eat
pie with knife or by hand.
As usual, most of the dope about
this series has been ridiculous. 1t is
prdicated on features that have no
part in baseball and will be shot full
of holes when the actual play be-
