DOWN, But THEY MUST
The treasury officials of the present admins

to this is bills must be cut. The
OF the new Republican business management which
win take charge of the government in full on the 4th
day OF next March is that they will be cut.
II is true that the annual interest charge alone

Hundreds OF millions more st remain to be cleaned
up the failure of government operation OF the !
railroads. Hundreds OF other millions of hang-ove
war expenditures are still running on. And there

years. {
Nevertheless while slathers OF expenditures ~

GaUaudet Loses
An Athletic Star
In Noah Downes

Gallaudet College lost one of the
most promising athletes in the his
tory of Kendall Green yesterday
when Noah Downes accepted a berth
with the Petersburg baseball club
of the Virginia League. While il
was req eatedly rumored at Gallau-
det for the last month that the big
fellow was about to leave. Downes
himself, while admitting that he had
received an offer to play profession
al ball. denied that he had any in
tention of leaving the college at this
time. However, scholastic failings
finally forced him to quit.
BY Downes' departure every de-
partment of athletics at Gallaudet
is hard hit. He was one of the great
est. il not the greatest, all-around
athletes the Buff and Blue have been
fortunate to possess. AS a basket
ball player he was uneXcelled. as
his playing in the District Basket
ball League two years ago. finally
resulted in the Kendall Green quint
winning the championship.
Though he had had TO football
experience before entering the Ken
dali Green institution, he rapidly
picked up the fine points of the game.
and his playing last season showed
that he was in a fair way to de-
veIop into an equally fine half back.
On the diamond he showed great
versatility. Besides being the Ken
dali Grcener's mainstay in the box.
he was able to fill any of the infield
and outfield positions.

Program Book of
HaUre de Grace
Meet Now Ready

Havre de Grace. Md. April S.
The program book for the first
part of the impending meeting of
the Hartford Agricultural and Breed
ers' Association has been issued by
Clerk OF the Course Joseph McLen-
nan. 1t provides races for horses
of all sorts and announces the clos
ing on Saturday of the $4,000 Har-
ford Handicap. a race of three-q
ters Of a mile for first-class sprint
ers, 3 years old and over, to be de-
cided on the opening day of the
meeting, next Friday.
There are more races at short dis
tances than either General Manager
Edward Burke or Mr.. McLennan
would like to offer, but conditions
this spring caused the offering of
short distance races. A hard win
ter and a heterogeneous
spring have made the training of
the first-class horses of all ages
that wintered in the East a very
difficult matter. Very rev of these
Eastern winterers are fit to go far
ther than three-quarters of a mile
right now and it is not probable that
they will be a great deal better off
next week.
The indications are. however. that
the Hartford Handicap will draw a
field of smart short-distance per-
formers and there will be no end of
useful material for the overnight
events. The overnight events will
range in value from 81, 200 to $2,500.

Gilfeather Thorpe had to kick
forth to the kink with all his

was an Indian giver, but he was
sore at the method in which Doc
Cook had slipped the work to
the kink of Denmark.
BY the way. we bopped
right into Doc down. in Forth

peddling gumdrop stock in
Texas oil wells. The old boy
looked hale and kippy and
shows every indication of liv-
ing to an unripe old age. He
claims to be the only living dis
covercr of the pole, and is quite
rational, provided he keeps out
of the hot sun. He asked not to
be quoted and particularly alb

IF the Doc sells enough

would dig the well.

II Can't BE Done.

Detroit has the hardest hitting
outfield in baseball, an attacking
machine in general that has been
averaging between four and FIVE
runs per game.
But when you have a pitching
staff that is allowing between four
and six runs to the game. you need
no vast Mathematical education to
see what the ultimate result will
be.
Jennings. with a fine ball club in
other ways, hasn't had a good
pitching staff in ten years. not since
the days OF Bill Donovan, Mullin,
etc. And for ten years Hughey has
never won a flag.
He has another fine club this sea-
son-outside of the pitching. This
may improve. Leonard should be
better and one or two Of the others
may come along.
But in spite Of Cobb. Veach, Flag
stead. Heilman and Shorten. Bush
and others. poor pitching still looks
to be the barrier that will bar the
Tigers from the top.
1t is hard to figure the Tigers
anywhere above third place.
The Pirate Revival.
Pittsburg Topped with Detroit
eleven years ago. Neither has ever
come back.
But last season Pittsburg started
from the bosky dell of the second
division and today Gibson has one
of the best clubs in baseball. A
pennant winner? Not quite.
Last season Cincinnati beat Pitts
burg out by twenty-five full games
This is an extensive margin in a
140-game race.
Pittsburg will be stronger than
last year. but not quite strong
enough to overcome this gap.
