TWO WHITE SOX
JOIN GOATS
cicotte and Risbere Take Blame for
Yesterdays Slaughter by
Fierce Batting
Reds
rBy Ross Teney, Written for the
United Press1


CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct 2.-The
White Sox don't boast bit here to-
day-but two of them were added to
the Immortal Order Of World Series
Goats in this worlds series opener
here-Eddie Cicotte ana Swede Rts-
berg.
Cicotte signed his own certificate
of membership when he solemnly
assured Kid Gleason that HIS arm
was In perfect shape for duty. He
thought it was, but that didn't make
It so. He never had less stuff in all
his pitching career and It is doubtful
whether he'll go against the Reds
again until both the White Sox south
paws and Bill James have been tried
out by Kid Gleason. Gleason waited
TIL the last minute before picking
Cicotte to pitch and then did SO only
after Eddie assured him he was
exactly right
Cicotte's fellow-goat Is Swede Ris-
berg, who balled up play that
should have been the third out in
the fourth inning before the Reds
scored any runs. Swede started after
Greasy Neale's bounder in this round
with two down and Kopt on first 1t
should have been an easy force out.
but Risberg hesitated, thinking Eddie
Collins was going for the ball, when
Eddie was merely dashing to cover
second for the force play. Then
Swede started again, bus was too late
and the bail bounced off his glove for
a single. The slaughter of Cicoete
followed this boner and five runs
crossed the plate before that third
ont was made. Swede has no excuse
He should have kept on going TO
cover second If he thought Collins
was after the ball.

HIGH COST
COMMISSION
Taking Pains in Making Plans and
Perfecting Organization

J. The officers of the Kentucky High
Cost of Living Commission, which
has recently been taken over and re-
organized under the direction of the
Department of Justice, have been at
work getting information from other
cities. in conjunction with similar
commissions in adjoining states.
1t is the intention of the Commits
sion to issue Daily Bulletin, show
ing the scope of its investigation and
the information received both from
our State and points in adjoining
States as TO the prevailing prices on
food and clothing. (. 1t has likewise
been determined by the Commission
that instead of making the attempt
to regulate all kinds Of prices on
every commodity, a policy will be
followed By selecting. ten staples in
groceries, five in meats, and an
equal number in clothing, as well as
few staples in shoes, and establish
ing fair prices on these articles,
which prices are to be based on the
actual cost of the materials and not
TO be calculated on any replacement
basis; in other words, the Commits
sion is going to center its. attention
for the present on few essentials
Of life, rather than so-called Injuries.
With this information in hand, the
facts are to be presented to the Fair
Price Committee, the chairman Of
which will be appointed in a few
days, which Committee was formed
and selected in accordance with .spe-
cific instructions from the Attorney
General in Washington, and with the
confirmation of these prices, District
Attorney Slattery, Of COvingtOn, and
Gregory of Louisville assure us they
win be able to prosecute successful

County Almost
 Out Of Debt

The financial statement as published in the Spectator last week, the county h4d on June 30, 1919 only $I, ,584, 10 in out standing ser D. Since June 30. there has been probably $1, 900 in scrip issued a great part of which has been paid, leaving the county in debt at present between S2. 900 and $2. 800
 On June 30, 1918, there was $5, 62O, ,23 of outstanding scrip, which means that the county paid running expenser and $4. 0IS, 12 of it's debts. If the next year We are fortunate enough to have no expensive court trials or other unusual expenses the county should have a cash bal ance to it's credit next June.
 The county officers do not know who holds any scrip. as several have tried to buy it but were unable to do so. It is possible that this $1, 5S4, 10 or large part of 1t has been lost by those who held it and may never be found.
 Itis the intention of Judge Barham to call in all scrip to be presented at the July, 1920. term of county court, at which time 1t seems reasonable certain that Franklin Go. will be on a cash basis.

Training Of Disabled
 Soldiers and Sailors.

In order to tai ke training un- der the Board, a soldier. sailor, or nurse must have resigned or have been discharged from the military service under honorable conditions since April ', 1917. and must have been so disab ed that vocational education is nec- essary to overcome the handi- cap of hie disability.
 In the retraining of the injur- ed soldiers the Federal Board makes use of all the educational institutions, both public and lrivate, that provide courses suitable to his needs. It also makes use of factories, shops, Navy Yards. banks, commercial institutions, etc. which provide courses that may be needed in particular cases. In each in- stance contracts are made with these institutions by which the Board is permitted to supervise the course of instruction given. The Board pays the expense of tuition, books, appliances, etc.. and makes an allowance of not more than $80. per month for subsistence to d single man and S1l5. per month to a married man without children. Additional allowa nces are made for each dependent child.
 Application should be made to the District Vocational Officer S10 Western Indemnity Bldg, Dallas. Tex, who will give each case careful consideration and advise N hat steps to take to secure training by this Board should he be eligible therefor.

There appears to be some miss understanding as to the tim e the returning soldiers boys and and the young men coming of age this year should be warned to work the road.
 The date of their returning from service or of their becom- ing of age, as the case may be, should govern in all cases. In other words. if the boys are at home or of age only six months of the current year they should work only two days of the year.
