NEXT TUESDAYS ENORMOUS
BALLOT A MENACE TO
GOOD GOVERNMENT

The increase in the size of the bal
lot is a menace to good government.
II has grown so large as to preclude
an honest vote for honest men. Voters
have to swallow it almost whole or
lose a day picking their choice. Chi
cago voters next Tuesday will be con-
fronted with the biggest election bal
lot ever printed in the city. Political
experts think it breaks the record for
size in the history of organized poll
tics in the United States.
Men and women will be handed d
blanket sheet of paper that measures
80 by SO inches-almost yard square.
This will contain only the names OF
the candidates for presidential cleo
tors, state, congressional, legislative,
and county candidates.
The ticket containing names of can
didates for Municipal judges will be
on q separate sheet of paper that is
small in size, compared with the main
ballot A third ballot contains the
propositions-the fifty ward bill, the
aldermanic term of office question,
the daylight saving issue, and the ref
erendum on the private banks bill.
The names of presidential electors,
state officers, county officers and SAM
tary trustees should be on separate
ballots by themselves.
The voter would then have chance
to discriminate.

Get Three Runs at Starr
BY r. ]. Kelly

The Fordham baseball team, coached
by Arthur Devlin, the one-time Giants
third baseman defeated the Colum-
bia nine in the second game Of the
series for the championship Of the city,
at Fordham Field yesterday afternoon,
by the score of 4 to 2. The Blue and
White aggregation won the first con
test several weeks ago and, as no ar
rangements have been made for third
game, the title VIII have TO remain
undecided.
Waters, Fordham's sensational twirl-
er, held the visitors to four hits ard
registered nine strike outs. Hauck, the
Columbia twirler, allowed only six
safeties, but four Of these were punched
in the first inning. After this ronud
the Bronx collegians were unable to
fathom his offerings and eight Of
them were retired on strikes.
The fielding of both teams was very
ragged. The players COM
mitted three errors and the Maroon
fielders were guilty of four misplays.
Hoctor, the Fordham third baseman,
played a wretched game. He fumbled
two grounders and, in addition, made
numerous wild throws to first base,
!! but these were converted into put-outs
by Mclaughlin, who caught the pegs
several feet from the bag and tagged
the runner.
Columbia started we'll and scored a
run in the first inning on Lefevre's
error and Schnaars's double to left
field. Fordham came back in its half,
however. and went the visitors two bet
ter. Mclaughlin led off with a single
to center field and Buckley followed
with another single to right. Both run
ners advanced when Goodman allowed
Buckleys hit to roll through his legs.
Halloran then chased two runs across
the plate with a triple to deep right
field. The latter completed the circuit
a moment later on Lefevre's single to
left
The Bronx collegians tailed again
in the third. Buckley got his second
hit of the game, a single to left field.
He then reached second on Hallorat 5
sacrifice bunt Finn drew a base on
balls and Lefevre, the next batter,
forced Finn at second. Wechsler threw
wild to first in attempting to complete
a double play and Buckley scored from

one hit for the remainder of the con-
test and not one of the home players
reached second.
Columbia staged a rally in the ninth
inning and threatened to tie the score
Schnaars was safe on Hoctor's error,
and Alderman singled to left. Hauck
then flied out to Donovan and Good
man popped up to Finn. Wenstein
