Sport Chatter

Harry Keck, OF the Pittsburgh
GaZette.Times, who is making his
second annual swing around the
football training camps, is not over
" optimistic about the West Nlr
Einia university football outlook
for the present season. According
to KeCk the success or failure OF
the West Virginia team this year
depends in large measure upon
whether or not the elusive MT.
Beck comes back into the Varsity
fold.

that they are not counting very
much on getting now | am mere,
now / am not here" Beck back
again, and following keck's line OF
reasoning West Virginia therefore
Is up against 1t.
But Ne would hate to believe that
West VirEinIa's hopes for the pres
emit season are builded upon one
man. II the Varsity Is wreck
without Beck, 1t would argue that
there is something loose down the
river. 1t is our candid opinion that
IL Beck does not come back, Tub
by" will find some ono to fill his
place acceptably.
The thing that causes the most
regret about the case of "Beckie
is the fact that he got so uarncu
much FREQ advertising and then
kicked his advertising managers IN
the we'll known stats.

bit of advice with q grain or SAT-
IN the football world. If West Vir-
gInia's football wagon Is hitched
entirely and alone to star Beck we
fear the ride is going to be, mighty
rough. However, we hold that this
is not correct in every detail.
But getting away from Keck and
Beck. other correspondents OF the
metropolitan papers who visited
the Mountaineers' training camp
were impressed with the makeup
OF the team and feel that the Vars

Florept Gibson, the FATTY Ar

trip to the Pitt training camp at

won't spread out and grab his

field that will make ON play up

who act like q George McLaren In
some degree ad can serve as a bat

Another Interesting feature about
the Pitt tenn this year, we are
told will be the fact that the team
won't have any ends. Instead OF
ends, "Pop" Is going TO draft 4
couple of extra tackles on his ma
chine, one on tho outer side OF each

lions are almost standard. AS Pop
himself puts It:
1--WE may have to make plays
look like what they ain't-some.
Well have to fool them little bit.
Now in '16 and II we didn't give
a boot If the other fellows did know
where we were going. We went
there, anyway, whether they knew
and wanted us to or not. And the
last two years we had to do things
n little differently. This year we
may make things a little different,
still, for we can't walk right over
all OF our opponents, and we may
have to trick EN- some. Wait and
see how 1t turns out"

the trailer to turn with the truck, to
which it is attached by a steering

Deputy Prohibition Com
missioner Of United

H. NJ. Gaylord, deputy prohibition
commissioner of the United States,
issued here yesterday a statement
scoring agitation for modification or
repeal of federal prohibition as ",ise-
less and tending only to excite pub
lie unrest"
He said, however, his visit here
had no connection with the recent
announcement of early publication
in Omaha of the first issue of Pub
lie Sentiment" anti-prohibition
weekly, whose hackers claim it will
have national support.
"The prohibition battle is over
and the nation is dry forever" Mr..
Gaylord asserted. "The present con-
gress is \ dry congress and the
next one will be even more dry All
of the thinking people of the coun-
try are back of rigid enforcement
Of prohibition measures. There will
be no real fight against enforcement
anywhere. Any segregated out
breaks or agitation will be mere
flashes in the PAN"
Squelches all Hopes.
Mr.. Gaylord, here to confer with
James H. Hanley, prohibition COM
missioner for Nebraska, squelched
any remaining hopes Nebraska
"wets" might have, that drug store

in this state. 49,.

U. S. Operation
OF Ships Melted
$l66,493,990
Payne Tells Senators Food
Administration Owes the
Board Is Million and War
Department $50 Million
Not Profitable Now
Chairman Urges the Govern.
ment to ''Cet Out Soon as
Possible and Stay Out''

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Govern-
ment operations in the shipping bus
mess resulted in net profit. of $780,
493,990 up to last June 20, Chairman
Payne to-day told the Senate Mer-
chant Marine Committee, making pub
lie for the first time complete statistics
covering the financial aspects Of the
boards transportation activities. This
revenue does not include unpaid bal
ances due from other government de-
partments, he said, adding that the
food administration owes the board
about $15,O0o,000 and the War De-
partment about $15O,0O0,00O.
On February l, he said the board
was operating 1897 bottoms of $685.
900 deadweight tons, including 1,O46
steel cargo ships.
Each of the eleven standard types of
ships owned by the board can be dupli-
Gated in commercial yards at less than
cost to the board, Chairman Payne
told the committee, submitting table
of comparative cost and selling prices
for these types. The boards schedule
Of selling prices per ton, he said, is
higher in every case than the esti-
mated cost of reproduction at this
time.
The sales department up to Febru-
ary Fl had disposed Of 1877 ships for
total Of Sill, 1922 ,41O, the chairman
said.
The "active" construction program
Of the Emergency Fleet CORPORATION
was said to comprise 2,311 ships, with
a, total tonnage of 1882, 900. More
than 10,00O000 tons have been de-
!ivered to date, 100000 tons now are
being Quilted and about 100000 are
on the ways. The balance represents
ships the keels of which are vet to
be laid. About 100000 tons of the
total, Mr.. Payne said, are oilburning.
Not one cent will be asked OF Con-
gram, Chairman Payne said, since funds
from operation and sale of ships will
take care of estimated expenditures of
5307 100000 for the next fiscal year.
He reiterated that the government
should get out OF the shipping business
as soon as possible and stay out"
Very much, too, much, has been said
ships,' he remarked, ."since some ap-
pear to believe that Congress can be
induced to force the shipping board
to sell it's vessels for S1OO or $3.50 q
ton. This has made many prospective
purchasers hold off, but when the de-
bate is over they will move faster"
he asked only two sections be added
to merchant marine legislation, one
turning over to the shipping board the
North German Lloyd and Hamburg
Line docks at New York, now under
army control, and the other requiring
owners of American vessels to obtain
shipping board permission before sell
ing them to aliens
Government operation of the pres
cnt fleet Mr.. Payne did not consider
profitable, though the government had
some cash from it. Individual Amer
leans, he said, could operate ships sue
cessfully at profit, in competition
with foreign owned vessels.
