tasions, but denied he was talking t
him for the purpose of securing him t.
lead his club. 1t is known that Evers
is most DESTROYS of returning to base
ball after an absence of two years. He
declared to the writer that his health
is finer now than it has been in many
years and that he believed he is capa-
bic of taking a club and making a sue
cess of it. While he did not solicit
Bezdek's position, it is known that
several friends went to the front for
him and succeeded In arranging a
meeting with Dreyfuss.
Eyers managed the Cubs in 1913 and
finished third with the team. He re-
placed Frank Chance as leader but
was let out after the race and sold to
the Boston Braves, for whom he
played in 1914, assisting materially in
winning the National league and
worlds series pennants. Evers was
not success as a manager, although
there are few in baseball, if any, who
know more about the game or the run
ming of a club on the field. His only
difficulty was in getting along with his
players. He was too drastic on the
field and by his severity aroused the
displeasure and incurred the enmity Of
his players. Had his men played ball
the way he desired them to the Cubs
might have won the championship that
season.
Evers realized the mistake he made
and now that his health is greatly i'm.
proved feels he can take ball club
and handle it as well as any other
manager in the game. He wants the
chance and is going to get it with the
Pittsburgh club, with which he may
prove himself capable, as the team
has players around whom a champion
ship organization can be nodded
Evers knows this, and for that reason
would rather lead the Pirates than any
other club in the league.

The principal reason for the elation
Of the A. A. moguls is that they kept
their own counsel and decided to play

seeing that the national pastime was

CASEY RANKED HIGH ON GRID
Harvard Football Star Has Yet to
Prove His Equality With Mahan,
Declares Critic.

Football scribes of Boston and else
where are putting Eddie Casey of
Harvard in the same class with Eddie
Mahan. Well, Casey is good, there is
no doubt about that, but it would be
as we'll to bide the passing of Novem-
Der before placing him in the niche
alongside one of the greatest, if not
the greatest, backs of all time, says a
writer in an exchange.
Casey, by the way, has already had
his blooding, metaphorically and liter
ally. He participated in the Harvard
Yale 1916 game and in the first half
got loose and ran through pretty much
all the Yale team over distance OF
some so yards for touchdown. A
Harvard man, however, was detected
In the commission of a foul and the
brilliant run went for naught. The
pathetic part of it was that the run
was not affected one way or the other
by the foul. Then Immediately after
this hair-raising dash Casey was called

TO HELP WISCONSIN TRADE
Senator Lenroot Is Asked to Attach
Appropriation to Rivers and Har-

Change Income Tax Law.

Madison.-That the great harbors on
Lake Michigan and Lake Superior will
soon be accessible to sea-going YES
sells and that the trade Of Wisconsin
will be greatly increased, was the pre-
diction made in the upper house OF
the Wisconsin legislature by Assem-
blyman Ray J. Nye, Superior. He of
fered a memorial to congress asking
Senator I. l.. Lenroot to attach an ap-
preparation to the rivers and harbOrs
bill for the improvement of the st.
Lawrence river, in cooperation with
Canada.
The assemblyman said he fOresaW
the day when the great ocean liners
from Liverpool, Hongkong and other
important commercial centers would
be steaming into Lake Michigan and
Lake Superior ports with their prod
ucts. This improvement, he declared,
would cut transportation on wheat 6
cents a bushel between Superior, Mil
waukee and all English ports. The
resolution was adopted.
Senator PuIlen offered a bill fixing
the minimum salaries of county or dis
trict superintendent of schools at
from $500 to $4,000, based on num-
Der of teachers employed.
In the lower house Assemblyman J.
W. Conner offered q resolution indOrs-

private and parochial schools to dis
play the American flag.
A bill to repeal the personal prop
erty offset in the state income tax law
was offered in the assembly by Assem-
blyman G. e. Hanson of Pierce cOun-
ty. This bill was recommended by the
state ta2 commission in it's biennial re-
port Just filed with the governor. AS
semblyInan Hanson said that he has
been unable to discover any reason
why this personal property offset
should be retained. His measure will
greatly increase the returns under the
income tax law and will materially in
crease the revenues of the state. For
the year 1913 the personal property
offset in the state amounted to $780,
435. The Hanson bill would increase
the tax revenues of the state and To-
calities by that amount. Since the in
come tax law has been in operation
the personal property offset has
amounted to $12, S37, 1927, while the
cash collections have amounted to
$16,502, 300. In other words, about 40
per cent of the state income tax is
dissipated in offsets"
Another bill offered by Assembly
man G. e. Hanson gives the legislature
power to remove an appointive Off
cial. The bill provides: "Any appoint
i've state officer, after being examined
as provided in sections 1928 and 1924
may be removed by the legislature by
joint resolution adopted in each house
by q majority of the members pres
ent. The power to remove appointive
state officers provided in this section is
additional to and shall not be con-
strued as destroying the right of re-
moval by other persons"
