Inspires Players.

His method Is proving successful. for
the Reds have never played the earnest
and aggressive kind of ball they have
been putting up this season. All of the
players are working their heads of to
win, spurred on by the admirable infu-
ence Of their leader. No team ever had
a better spirit and the main cause of
this is the example and influence Of the
manager. Pat has taught his men not
to be cast down by defeat nor to be I'M
duly elated by victory.
After a losing game they come back
strong and after a winner they think
about nothing so much as winning the
next one. Moran believes In taking each
days work up as II comes along and
srending no time In regret for the past
or in worry over the future The result
is that tho team is on edge for each
days battles and goes into each conflict
with a sincere determination to win that
particular game and let the next one
" ait until the next day.
One noticeable feature of Moran's in
spring methods Is that the team has
had no bad losing streak this year. This
has always been true OF Pats teams,
none of which ever had really serious
slump of any duration. The longest
stretch of defeats suffered by the Reds
to date was the four straight games lost
tC the Pirates in the latter part of May.
At 10 other time has the team lost more
than two games in a row, and usually a
defeat is followed by victory the very
next day.

Doesn't Hog Lime1ight.

Another fine trait of the Red leader
is that he never attempts to hog the
limelight or grab the glory. but always
aims to give most of the credit for win
ming to his players. The fans have
doubtless noticed that Pat often pats
a player on the back and gives him a
word OF congratulation after making an
exceptionally good play. This is no
grand stand stunt with him, but only a
part Of his nature.
Moran is a strict disciplinarian. but
he never fails to credit a worthy player
with any special effort he may make
to win game. Usually he mentions such
plays on the bench soon after they are
made. Pat believes that 1t helps the
morale of the team to recognize and
applaud extreme efforts.
A certain class Of manager is prone
to ignore the good plays made by his
men and to dilate on the mistakes which
even the best of players sometimes COM
nit Pat will call attention TO the mis-
takes, but not for the sole purpose of
criticism. but mainly to instruct against
a repetition of them.

Il HAY DAY arrived with an

IN \
a v Il national fireworks by So
cialists, Industrial Work
ers of the World and the Bolsheviki.
In the United States more than a
score of bombs were discovered in
the mail, riots of soldiers and citi-
zens versus Socialists or Bolshevists
occurred in New York, Chicago,
Cleveland, Boston and as far south
as Tampa. AS though to make the
programme complete, Francisco
Villa, the arch Mexican rebel, broke
forth again.
In Europe, where since 1890 May
Day has been set aside as the time
for general socialistic demonstra-
tions, there was the usual upheaval
and subsequent subsidal, on the
whole no more serious nor signifi-
cant than in years gone by.
The press OF this country, in a
measure divided in their interpreta-
ton of American May Day demon
strations, are agreed that the spirit
of Bolshevism, if not it's corporeal,
devastating self, is with us. The
Bolshevik movement, they would re-
mind US, is no longer an abstract
dialectic entity; it is here in the
concrete, not greatly, but still here.
Remedial suggestions differ. Those
who believe it should be outmatched
by force differ with those who think
Bolshevism is political plant
tweed" some editors say-that sim
ply cannot take root in the soil of
democracy.
No more ingenious exposition Of
the psychology of Bolshevism has
been advanced than that which
Harry Leon Wilson publishes in
'The Saturday Evening Post" He
links the Bolshevist, wherever or
whenever found, with his counter
part, the "bad boy" of school. They
are men with boys minds, danger
Gus, to be sure, since they have not
the mentality that will function for
truth.
In sum, the Red, set forth by Mr.
Wilson's vivid and satiric pen, is
sky-blue thinker. He was once a
Red himself, admits Mr.. Wilson:
Have you little Bolshevist in your
home? Long, long ago knew a nice
old home that had one, and I was it.
And no wonder For the capitalstc |
bourgeoisie had me ground down some
thing cruel. Slave labor in a garden

spirit; dcbasing toll compelled at
