THE POLITICAL
w CD u 4 I'D
Nv nv I'D \ u ~ u
GROM THE TINES OWN indianapolis BUREAU)

I for even Democrats themselves are OF
/ the opinion that their party is in bad
shape as far as state politics is con-
/ cerned.
A peculiar situation has developed.
! It is given out on what appears to be
! good authority that Tom Taggart is
taking no part in the selection Of a
state chairman and that he has re-
fused to he coaxed into the scrap. 1t
is known that some of the faithful have
made repeated tours and trips to French
Lick to talk things over with Taggart
and to induce him to give his endorse
ment to this candidate or that candi-
date. He has declined. up to this time
to do this. They coaxe and beg of
him to say just one little word that
might be used to indicate that he was
for this or that candidate or man for
state chairman. but whenever one OF
the smooth ones attempt this sort of
thing il is said that Taggsrt closes up
like a clam on windy day and says
nothing except that any good man will
be all right
1t is said. however. that Taggart
would not be at all wen pleased With
the selection of some of the men who
have been mentioned. II is evident
that there is concerted effort on the
part of a certain element to turn the
party over to the Steve Fleming fac
ton of the party and allow that crowd
70 run things. This, Of course. would
make Taggart's hair stand on end and
his moustache bristle. But some of
those who are close to him do not be-
lieve that this is going to happen. They
muster enough votes in the state COM
mittee to put the party in the hands
of the Fort Wayne brewer. Therefore.
they say. Taggart is resting easily and
enjoying absolute peace at French Lick.
The election of Greenhouse would not
be at all distasteful to Taggart, for
Greenhouse and Taggart have played
the game together for many years Ii
was while Taggart was the master of
the party in the heighth of his political
power that Greenhouse was selected to
fill a vacancy in the office of state
superint endent. and a Taggart commit
tee appointed him to the place. Later
he was elected twice to the same Of
fee. This is not so bad for a man who
was drafted to take the job.
There has been a revival of the talk
about Dale J. Crittenberger. of Ander-
son. as a possible candidate for state
chairman. but he says there is nothing
! in it. Crittenberger has not only been
talked Of for state chairman. but also
for state auditor at the election in
1918 and for governor in 1920. Whether
he is running for any one or all of
these places remains to be seen. He
has been running around over the state
quite a bit and has made some trips

indianapolis suffra gists are wonder
ing just where they are at The
county registration board for the spe-
cial constitutional election has been ap-
pointed and the registrations of women
are in progress at the Marion county
court house. According to the inter-
probation Of the registration law by
the non-partisan committee appointed
by Governor Goodrich. the registration
should begin on June % and close on
August 20 But the county clerk points
out a clause in the. Beardsley law
passed on the last day Of the session
Of the Legislature which says the
county CLERK shall begin at once TO
initiate appoint, organize and. begin
the operation of the registration board
but that the same shall be done in
sufficient time to allow for full
period Of sixty days for such registra-
tion, the end of which period shall be
on the fifth Monday, by retrogression,
preceding such election"
The county officials insist that the
law required them to begin at once"
and they have done so. The women.
however are wondering whether it is
all right. Some of them say that if
the registration has started too earl,
there is great danger that women wh'
register before June p may be chal
lenged when they undertake to vot'
at the special election for delegates Il
the constitutional convention on tn
ground that they are not properly regis
tered. Whether registration is in pro
gress in any other county in the stat
for the constitutional convention cleo
ton is not known here.

TIMES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. June There
is pretty good reason to believe that
when the Democratic state committee
meets, which will happen some time
this week or next. Bernard Korbly will
resign as state chairman. and that
either James r Fleming of Portland,
or Charles A. Greenhouse Of this city
will be elected to succeed him. The
name of Greathouse has been injected
into the situation in the last few days.
since it became known definitely that
W. H O'Brien of Lawrenceburg would
not accept the place under any circum-
stances.
Greathouse formerly was state SUI
nerintendent of public instruction. and
he is rich and a good politician. That
is about all that is required for a
Democratic state chairman in Indiana.

MAY DISPOSE0F
YACHT HAWAII At
PUBLIC AUCTION

Following the announcement Of the
sale of the La Paloma, the first yacht
to compete for Hawaii i'll the San
Diego to Honolulu yacht race, comes
the story Of the proposed sale Of the
Hawaii, the second Yacht to enter in
the long contest.
In the equity action to be filed short
ly by P. L. Weaver in Judge Ashford's
division Of the local circuit court,
authority will be asked to permit the
sale Of the yacht at public auction.
The TranspaCific Yacht Club com
mittee composed Of Judge Henry +,
Cooper, William II. McInerny and
Charles T. Wilder have decided to
sell the yacht Thousands of dollars
have been expended on it, and it is
expected that the sale of the boat
will pay up the Indebtedness.
The committee regrets to sell the
yacht, but inasmuch as there is no
Likelihood of race during the next
few years, it was thought best to dis.
pose Of the Hawaii. The Hawaii won

One Of the biggest upsets in ath
letics is expected within the next few
days. II present plans are carried
out it will mean an election Of new
officers in the A. A. L. from top to
bottom. w. T. RaWlins, John Soper,
Jack Longley and Lorrin Andrews are
the men who will be involved in the
situation.
Certain members Of the various or
CARNATIONS in Hawaii want a change
in the local A. A. U. According to
their statements the present officials
have not been satisfied with the hand
ling Of affairs, and believe that with
an entire new board of governors and
officers athletics will be given a big
ger boost
On TeehnIeaIIties
Much Of the opposition appears to
be conferred on grounds Of lack Of CO.
operation. The opposition parties
maintain that little technicalities have
been given too much consideration,
and that the local officials of the A.
A. U. have not cooperated with the
clubs along these lines.
The matter was brought to a head
when the local officials protested
against recognizing the records OF the
swimmers in the Y. M. c. A. meet.
At q meeting Of the games commit
tee Of the A. A. q. on Wednesday It
was announced that swimmers with
out A. A. U. cards could not compete
without being announced as post en-
tries. This was not done in the case
Of all the swimmers.
Rules Of A. A. v.
John Soper, chairman Of the regis.
tration committee, said that he did not
see how the records could stand, I'm.
less the national body Is willing TO-
overlook the infractions Of the rules.
The other officials said that they had
20 choice but to live up to the rules.
There appears to be much discussion
regarding the printing Of the names
h the programs, when the swimmers
announced as post entries should have
been left off.
. At any rate there has been much
opposition IN certain quarters to the
local A. A. U. officials, and it is known
that three or four Of the clubs will
take action to make some change in
their Representatives.

Girls Swimming Meet Would
Be Biz Feature For Honolulu
If Feminine Competitors and Women Officials Could Be Secured
Such Meet Would Without Doubt Attract Many Stars
Ruh Stacker and Maroy Capps Favor PIa-Young ladies
Are Confident That They Could Carry on Meet With Success

Why not stage a swimming meet
in which ,mermaids will be the only
competitors and girl officials act in
stead Of men? Throughout the main
land swimming for girls is receiving
a big boost, and Olga Dorfner, Claire
Galligan, Dorothy Burns and Frances
Cowells are better known than the
men swimmers.
With the prospects Of seeing
worlds champions in action. much in
tereSt is being taken in feminine
swimming, and with a meet for girls
alone, there ought to be a large num-
Der Of entries. It would bring out
much talent which has heretofore
been absent at the meets.
Ruth Stacker Favors Plan
When seen today, Miss Ruth Stack.
er, who has perhaps done more than
any other swimmer to boost the game
here, said that it would be an excel
lent plan. and was confident that
enough girl officials could be OBJ
tanned to carry on the meet success
fully. The Outrigger club has taken
up swimming in earnest, and without
OOuDI COuIu SulSI uuuUSE OI cali
didates.
Miss Marjory Caps, swimming in
struCtor Of the Y. W. c. A., is en-
thusiastic about the plan, and is con-
fident that a number of her pupils
will enter. She suggested that a
number Of different events be staged
in order to give all classes Of swim
mers an opportunity to compete. This
is an excellent idea and will perhaps
be carried out.
many Punahou Stars
It is known that there are a number
of young ladies in the city who can
swim, and they would all be given an
opportunity to show what they could
do in such a meet. In the Punahou
meets in the past excellent time has
been made in a number of the events.
The suggestion was made to one
of the local feminine stars, at the
first nights meet at the Y. NJ. C. A.,
and the plan Endorsed by two of
the local swimmers. If the young
ladies of the city will take the plan
in hand it is certain that they can
make it real success.

A. B. CAMPBELL WILL
ENTERTAIN MEMBERS
OF SWIMMING CLUB

A. B. Campbell will act as host to
the members Of the Outrigger Swim
ming Club at the beach on Tuesday
evening A chowder dinner will be
held, and short talks will be given by
the members Of the club The dinner
will be a celebration Of the advent Of
the Outrigger Club into the swimming
game.
The Outrigger Club made an excel
lent showing in the recent swimming
meet at the Y. NJ. C. A., and there
were a number of surprised spectators
when the beach club ran up a big
score on the first night A number of
new swimmers have made their ap-
pearance since the Outrigger Club en-
tered the game, and Chapins victory
over Shigi Matsuguma, means some
thing for the club. The youngsters
are being developed, and this fact in
itself is more than worth while.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-08-14

In the past the Outrigger club has
not paid much attention to competi.
tive swimming, but this year they are
going after the events in the right
manner, and with Dad Center on the
job, this club should have at least 20
entries for the feminine swimming
meet, II one can be staged.
With Gerd Hiorth, Josephine Hop
Eins, Kathleen Law, Helen Rosa and
one or two other entries in the open
events for the so. 100, 220 and 40;
with the Outrigger and Palama girls
in another class, as novice events, and
races for girls under Is years, there
would naturally be a heap Of interest
in such a program. 4
With breast stroke back stroke
events and a relay the young ladies'
would, without doubt, furnish a pro-
gram which would be interesting. It
Is rumored that there are three or
Tour young ladies at Punahou who
could make up a relay team, and with
entries from the Kunalu boat club,
Palama, the Outrigger and Y. w. C.
A, enough entries could be secured
to make up a real program.
Many Young Swimmers
The showing made by little Edith
Kenn in the open event at the Y,
NJ. c. A., shows the progress made by
the swimmers at Palama. Although
she is but 13 years old, she kept up
with the older swimmers and was de.
feated by a narrow margin. Eleanor
Lyser Of the Outrigger club also made
a great showing in the Friday meet,
and this competition has a tendency
to improve the quality of swimming
here. Before many years It is ex-
pected that Hawaii will have a real
champion to compete against the best
on the mainland. a
A girls meet this month would be
timely inasmVch as Claire Galligan
Is coming to Hawaii, and possibly
Dorothy Burns and Frances Cowells
will be here for competition. II the
various organizations will send repre-.
sentatives to a meeting, something
may be worked out which will give
the feminine swimmers an opportu.
nifty to show what they can do IN
