yACATIONISTS WANT
SANITARY HOI ELS
Ask State Board of Health Cor Rat
ings of Resort Hotels

ings Of Resort Hotels
That vacationists care to run no
health risks this summer, and are
realizing the Importance Of the. law
governing the inspection OF hotels
ard boarding houses, is gathered from
the fact that inquiries are being made
of the State Board Of Health regard
ing the sanitary and health oondi-
tions of various hotels and boarding
houses at various resort places, al,
SO the operation Of the law that will
render such plG,,,es safe from health
standpoint. Unfortunately for sum-
mer travellers and vacationists, the
State Board Of Health makes the
statement that sufficient time since
the passage Of the law in March has
not been had to have put the law IN
full operation by this time, but it is
the purpose Of the board>to have the
law in good working order long be-
fore the summer season is over.
The board makes the suggestion
in this connection that vacationists
and summer tourists can themselves
do a great deal toward bringing about
sanitary conditions at summer ho-
tells and boarding houses by making
inquiry and refusing to engage rooms
or board where any of the following
insanitary conditions exist: Where
flies are admitted to the kitchen, din
ing rooms and sleeping rooms through
unscreened doors and windows, where
the water supply has not been analyz-
ed and approved by the State Board
of Health; where there is no sanitary
means of sewerage disposal, and
where room sanitation is not what
common decency demands, with means
for sufficient light and air.
The board is still Of the opinion
that what people want and show
themselves satisfied with, they get,
and that not even the law will bring
about every sanitary condition need
ed around hotels and boarding houses
as quickly and as effectively as fol
the people to demand these things as
protection of their health. When
hotels and boarding houses will have
to 90 out Of business for lack Of pat
rons, or maintain that state of clean
liness as to food, service, rooms and
surrundings that is not injurious tc
health, then hotel inspection laws will
not be tolerated nor will they be nee
essary.

"As Usual" and Then Some

Greensboro Daily News.
Business as usual and. a great
deal more of it is promised by every
financier whose opinion appears to
be worth anything. There will be
more money in this country next year
than there is now. The Secretary OF
the Treasury counts upon the expend-
iture of s10,0OO,000 900 in the Unit
ed States between June 1, 1917, and
June /, 1918, and ali this comes from
without but remains within.
This is an enormous amount OF
money to put into this country inde-
pendent of the normal expenditures
of the people themselves, but it is
not too much to expect. In fact, ev-
cry circumstance tends to show that
the ten billions will not cover the
amount. There is absolutely no rea-
son for any business Apprehension
and happily enough for this country,
there aren't panieky people enough
now to start a stampede that ends IN
disaster.
The immense war loans to other
governments will inevitably find their
way back through the multi
channels of business. The railroads
will enjoy the greatest. share Of it,
then the factories, the mines and the
merchants. Even the two bill
lions which the people loan to the
government will speedily turn round
and come back to them. 1t is as dip
ping a bucket into a pond and pour
ing the water back at another point
These billions expended here will
assure the highest degree Of activity
! in the industrial and business life OF
the nation: The paradox of the
greatest prosperity during the great,
est sacrifice will be the peculiar po-
sition of the United States. Business
as usual will pass as nationa
watchword, the talismanic phrases fol
calmness. More business than ever
immensely more, will be our motto

CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 3f.-The

spring training trip at New Orleans to-
day, when they try conclusions with
Jimmie Callahan's Pittsburgh Pirates.
Leaving the Crescent city, the Indians
will play at Birmingham, Ala, April

Toledo April 10. and then will hike to
Detroit for the opening game with the
Tigers on April IL.
The members of the club are all in
excellent physical condition. according
to Manager Foil. The Redskins leader
is especially well pleased with the con-
dition of Guy Morton, the big right
handler. whose arm went bad on him
after he had eleven of thirteen games
in the early part of the 1916 cam
paign. Morton has been lcOk ing like
a million dollars during the past ten
days. In his last three trials against
the Pelicans. during which he pitched
ten innings, he did not allow single hit
and only one man reached first base.
Morton will probably pitch the opener.
The Indians lineup for the first
brush with the Tigers will be as fol-
lows: Graney, left field: Chapman.
shortstop; Speaker, centerfieid; Roth,
right field; Guisto, first base; Wamby,
second base: Turner, third base; O'Neil,

LIKES HIS PITCHERS.
Mack Believes He Has Winners in
the Two Johnscns.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ATLANTA, Ga March 31-The Ath-
letics arrived at the Ansley Hotel early
this morning from Albany, and after
breakfast Harry Davis had the squad
in military drill at Ponce de Leon Park.
Macks team appears to be in perfect
physical condition. The popular leader
is well pleased with his pitchers since
the Johnsons have come through. In
Elliss and Jing johnson the Mackmen
have q pair of twirlers who are eX-
pected to rival Walter johnson, it is
claimed.
Jing Johnson, the former Ursinus Col
lege twirler, has worked in three eX-
hibition games, and not a man has
reached third base on him. He op-
Grated in one game against the Braves,
one at Jacksonville and one yesterday
against Indianapolis. It would not be
surprising to see Jing Johnson open the
season with Washington's famous john
son at Shibe Park next week.
Frank Thrasher, the cleaner-up, fence
buster of Connie Mack's rejuvenated
Athletics, made his bow before the
home folks in the spangles of a big
Lacquer today. Eighteen hundred of
the home folks were out to see Frank
Thrasher-Frauk, because there are
two other Thrashcrs of the same fam
lily tree with the CraGkers-make his
debut under the big tent. 1t will be
recalled that Thrasher as recently as
last season broke up ball games for
Atlanta. Today he probably had for
gotten that he was playing against his
alma mater.
The Mackmen viii be idle TOMORROW,
but renew hostilities with the CTa ckers
on Monday. There are three games
more to be fought to decision. Con-
ME Mack will get out his Scotch plaids

JOURDAN TO SECOND TEAM.
White Sox's Boss Reduces Yanigan's
SQUAD to Thirteen.

Special Dispatch to The Star
FORT WORTH, Tex. March 31-Just
to provide for emergencies, Manager
Rowland Of the White Sox shifted Ted
Jourdan to the second squadron for
the rest of the exhibition trip. Kid
Gleason's squad has been reduced to
light marching orders by the disposi-
tion of so many recruits. and if any
thing happened to any of his men he
would have to get into the game him
self or use a pitcher, of whom he has
none too many anyway.
The White Sox roster numbers only
twenty-nine men at present, which
means that Manager Rowland has to
weed out only four more players before
the middle of May to reduce his team
to the American League limit of TWEEN
ty-five. The rest of the journey to st.
Louis will be made with sixteen on
the first team and thirteen on the sec
ond. Gleason is not afraid Of the hoo
doc number.
Rowland at first thought of giving
his lieutenant the use of Jenkins as
we'll as Jourdan, but decided to keep
the backstop with the regulars. If
either Schalk or Lynn should get In
iured 1t would mean overwork for the
other. and the Sox boss does not intend
to take any chance of that.

ST. JOHNS WINS OPENER.
Defeats Rock Hill College in Loosely
Played Game. II to 10.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md. March 31.-St
Johns College opened its season OF
base ball games this afternoon by
defeating the nine of Rock Hill Col
fcge in slow and uninteresting game,
II to 10. 1t was the initial game of
the year for both teams. Although they
had been doing outdoor work for some
time. the players performed in loose
and ragged style.
The wildness of Copely. who started
the twirling for the Ellicott City lads,
prevented what might have been a
good game. But Copely was clearly Off
form. He issued several free passes in
the opening stanZa. and the cadets with
only one hit gathered in eight runs be-
fore the session was over. Forced to
the defensive thereby. the Rock Hill
boys made n plucky uphill fight. They
outhit the cadets by one. but the latter
batted in more timely style and took
full advantage of the several miscues
of their opponents.

NOTEWORTHY CHESS
IN THREE CONTESTS
Games Printed in This Column
Today Worthy of Particu-
lar Attention.
MASTERS TOURNEY is OFF

Three noteworthy games are printed
from the LaskerT Tarrasch match, the
correspondence game between Janow-
ski and Shipley, and the only game
won by Howell in his match with
Black. In the LaskerTarrasch game
the worlds champion is seen in his own
an inferior position. More advantage is
needed to score a win from Lasker than
from any other living master-that is
why he is champion.
In the second game, played to test
variation Of the Gledhill attack
against the French defense. Shipley, the
American amateur, after WithStanding
a brilliant but not altogether purpose
full display of fireworks in the opening,
scored a well merited victory. Janowski
held that the variation arising from
Skt-I<t3 gave black superior posi-
ton. Shipley and many others failed
to see anything in the French cham
pion's claim, and the event demon
strates that Shipiey was right. The
third contest is fine example of ac-
curate handling of rook and pawns, the
most common. and the most frequently
misplayed, of all end games.
j. w. Byler will be the lecturer at
the regular beginners evening at
the Capital City Club on next Thurs
day evening. Mr.. Byler Will speak on
Queen Traps" and all those interested
are cordially invited to attend.
