Mr.. LODGE AND HIS HOME
FOLKS.
Editorial from the New York
Times)

Editorial from the New York
Times.)
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge has
been an insistent advocate of amend
ments to the Treaty. AS chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee he prepared and present
ed to the Senate a report recon-
mending, with all the authority of
that committee, an amendment to
Article X, which, if adopted, would
have withdrawn the United States
. from all effective participation in
the work of the League of Nations.
1t was destructive amendment,
for it could have been accepted
by the allied nations; it would have
left us alone, outside tht League,
under the necessity of making our
own separte treaty with Germany.
Mr.. Lodge still advocates amend
ments. He declares his intention to
vote for the Shantung amendment
and for the johnson amendment.
Mr.. Lodge is the senior Senator
from the State of Massachusetts,
the leader of his party in that
State, the leader of his party in the
Senate of the United States. There
is, therefore, significance not to
be ignored or lightly passed by in
the resolution adopted by the Mas
sachusetts Republican Convention,
held in fremont Temple on Satur-
day, declaring that 1--WE therefore
favor prompt ratification of the
Treaty of Peace without amend
ment." There followed demand
for "unequivocal and effective re-
servations." That was inevitable.
In the interest of party harmony it
was necessary that there should be
some alienation of the terrible
blow the convention administered to
Senator Lodge in repudiating the
policy he has consistently pursued
in the Senate of seeking to de-
stroy the Treaty by amendment.
There had been a prolonged contest
in the Committee of Resolutions,
lasting through the afternoon and
until after midnight, between a

strong party sharing the views of
ex-senator Murray Crane, favoring
immediate ratification, and Mr..
Lodges friends, who fought vail
antly and successfully to save the
Senator's face. But they lost the
fight, the real fight, for Mr.. Lodges
course in the Senate could hardly
have been unequivocally condemned
than in that part of the resolution
which demands "the prompt rati-
fication of the Treaty of Peace with
out amendment" The phrases of
direct commentator of his course
in the Senate ring cracked and
hollow, after this express demand
for ratification of the Treaty as it
stands.
Any person having knowledge of
how such things are arranged in
committees of resolution can see
what happened. The advocates of
prompt ratification without amend
ment were too strong to be beaten
down, they carried their point, they
made Massachusetts Republicanism
indorse their position, and then, to
spare the Senator's feelings and to
avoid the appearance of a split in
the party, they inserted the matter
concerning reservations. This reso-
luton of the Massachusetts, Republi-
cans is not acceptance of a mere
principle, league of nations, some
league of nations; it is a clear and
unmistakable Endorsement of this
League of Nations, the covenant now
before the Senate. "All are agreed"
says the resolution, "that this nation
should do everything in its power to
secure and perpetuate world peace
and to substitute forever for the
horrors and miseries occasioned by
warfare just and permanent
method of settling with honor and
certainty the inevitable disputes be-
TWEEN nations and peoples That is
the whole purpose of the League of
Nations. 1t is an affirmation that
bears not the remotest resemblance
to the multitude of speeches made
in the Senate and elsewhere, many
of them by Mr.. Lodge, against the
Treaty and the covenant altogether,
in support of deadly amendments.

Real baseball backed by real team
work; that is what experts on the
National league see behind the 1919
American league pennant victory of
the Chicago White Sox. But team
work is not the only thing, they say,
that has brought about a winning ag-
gregation.
They point to Eddie Cicotte, who
got bad start in the opening game,
with his famous knuckle and shine
ball, as big reason alone for the
position of Comiskey's mighty base
ball machine. He is declared to be
the pitching marvel of modern base
ball, winning something like thirty
games this season, Without him,
they say, the White Sox's chances
would not have been so bright.
Of course a pitcher cannot do it
all, experts declare in naming Catch
er Ray Schalk as another reason for
the victorious work of the White
Sox. He, they contend, has had
much to do with turning many a de-
feat into victory by his quick head
work, for which he has been noted
since his leap from the minors to
the Chicago club eight years ago.
But the man named as the person
chiefly responsible for the success of
the White Sox is Manager William
kid" Gleason, who has batted for
a perfect average as leader of a
gathering of temperamental athletes.
One baseball critic in calling atten-
tion to his work said:
"Gleason has built to almost base
ball perfection the team that stands
as the American Leagues best; he
has overcome obstacles that the mere
fan would shudder even to think of.
and he has displayed genius to
which White Sox hackers do not hest
tate to point"

CONCENTRATION
MAKES WORLD
SERIES PLAYER

CINCINNATI, Oct, 2.-(By AS
sociated Press just as a good
golfer must keep his eye on the
ball, so must a champion baseball
player keep his mind on the game.
The ability of the Cincinnati play
ers to think baseball, dream base
ball, talk baseball and live baseball
has made them pennant winning
aggregation, according to Manager
Pat Moran.
''If the fellows had thought about
automobiles, shows and everything
else in the world but baseball they
would not be where they are now,"
said Moran in explaining how his
team captured the National league
flag, and became contenders for the
worlds championship. 81 guess that
holds good in most any game you
are playing. A player must be in
terested and he must think about
his game. When he does this he is
Americus times-recorder., 1919-10-02

always up and coming, taking ad-
vantage of every opportunity"
Pat has been characterised as a
miracle man, wonderful leader and
so on through the catalog of de-
scriptive phrases but he modestly in
sists the players are responsible for
the success of the Cincinnati club.
Il have great ball club that's
the whole story" he said "Not only
is it a great ball club, but It is a club
of fellows who take care of them
Americus times-recorder., 1919-10-02

Many times the manager has been
accused of over-working Cicotte and
Williams. his leading aces, but when
the regular fan stops to think about
those working in the bull pen almost
every day, he comes to realize that
Cicotte and Williams are conspic-
uous by their absence Only once
this season was Cicotte sent to the
bull pen to warm up for five min
utes before he went in and finished
a game. Williams was sent to the
bull pen only few mites. In this
way Gleason did not overwork his
leading twirlers, as many fans have
been lead to think.
Other reasons for the victory
are enumerated by these same critics
of the game. They include, Charles
Risbery, surprise infelder of 1919;
"Lefty" Williams, who has been TAX
ing his regular turn with Cicotte,
and delivering the goods, being the
best southpaw in the American
league; and Eddie Collins, playing
in the best form of his long base
ball career. In addition there is Joe
Jackson, fielding as he never did
before, and hitting the ball on the
nose, until he is flirting with the top
of the American League batters;
George Buck" Weaver, one of the
most daring baseball players in the
game, with his pep and dash; "Nemo
Liebold, "Chick" Gandil, and Hap
py" Felsch, Eddie Murphy, John Col
Inns, and Dick Kerr, the dimunitive
pitcher who toward the close of the
season, had developed to the point
where he became an ace. Kerr is
one of the gamest pitchers in the
league, and there seems to be nothing
in a ball game that he cannot do
well.
Americus times-recorder., 1919-10-02

Eddie Roush, who Cincinnati fans
expect will be an important factor
in the present world series games
with his heavy hitting, would not be
be playing baseball today, but for
an inherent love of the game which
enabled him to overcome a severe
handicap some years age.
When Roush began playing profess
sional baseball he was an infelder
and a right-handed thrower. Now
he is an outfelder, considered to be
one of the best in either league and
throws with his left hand.
The change was brought about
through an accident in which Roush's
right arm was broken. 1t didn't
heal properly and when the cast was
taken off, Roush found that his arm
was so weak that it would be impos-
sible for him to ever whip the ball
across the diamond with his old
speed.
First he decided to quit baseball
but found that was easier said
Americus times-recorder., 1919-10-02

than done. With the warm weather
came the longing to get hold of a
bat and glove-but the right arm
had no strength.
Determined not to be kept out of
the game, Roush decided to learn
to throw with his left hand. 1t took
him year-but he stuck to it. Now
he is considered one of the greatest
throwing outfelders in the game as
many National league base runners
will testify.

The sun was pouring streams Of
light on the little gray cottage on the
highlands, the sunshine Of golden Au-

In answer to familiar whistle,
which echoed through the valley, the
