There's been so much smoke thus far that 1t wouldn

names been mentioned in connection with the base
ball scandal, principally those who played in the world
series against Cincinnati last year
Ban johnson has been on the stand some testi-
mony, but it is said he has been holding out on the
jurors and will be recalled
John Heydler president of the National League, said
he was told the game of the series that some
Of the Sox players trying and mentioned 1t to

mark and that ended the subject far as Heyder was
concerned
Eeyder also said that Kid Gleason could have stopped
the scandal had he gone to the with the suspected
players after he had been told that crooked work had been
going

Some Dope on Jim Se,ceH

TLENELAND'S great showing in tho last couple of
- weeks has been due in large measure to the great
playing of Jim Sewe the shortstop. Pcrhaps he
will not be allowed to play in the worlds series but he
will do all in his power place the Indians in position
to battle tho National League leaders He Joined the
club after August 80 and, unless the Brooklyn club allows
him to play, he will be the sidelines
Sewells name is a in big league circles and
there is reason He is just kid and this is his first
year in professional baseball He graduated from tho
University Of Alabama last June. went to New Orleans

TTow many students Of sport have
II ever appreciated or dissected the
full value Of change of pacei
The general belief seems to be that
change of pace applied only to pitch
ing, whereas II is a vital feature in
numerous competitive enterprises.
II your opponent becomes adjusted
IN one speed he can soon set himself
TO meet this pace and handle 1t.
But when he is crossed with a series
of pace changes he Is no longer able to
hold his balance, and is affected not
only physically but mentally.
Killing Speed
TT IS no great trick for ball players
i to kill sheer speed that has no slow
ball nterpolation-unless 1t be the
binding speed of Walter johnson in his
prime.
But when one pitched ball zins hy
like bullet and the next, thrown with
the same motion, is only n third as fast.
the batter is soon in the fluttering
throes Of duck fit.
Tilden's Success

have played against all three and have
studied their tactics. You can very
often tell pretty well just what yor
are to get from Johnston and Williams
is coming back. But Tilden Is another
matter. He'll kill one and cut another
One comes over the net at a mile a
minute and the next may be chopped
over with lot of spin, but with little
speed. This change of pace has the
tendency to keep you guessing and ir
that way completely wreck your menta
poise. You can never get set in youl
defense, for you have no idea wha
speed you will have to meet. In ad
dition to his killing service. Tilden''
change of pace is undoubtedly one o
the big factors in his winning game"
In Football
YOU may recall the tactics 1al'
l. used against Harvard last fall
The Blue presented fine combination
of driving power and sheer, raw game
ness, but there was no change Of pace
or change of tactics.
1t was oil smash smash smash-o
crash crash crash.
Az consequence, llhENdih " VIC
! fense was able to hold It's balance
to get set for the expected line plunge
The football offense now must be ba
anccd to overthrow the opponent
mental and physical balance. If you
opponent is unable to get set--if hi
mind is in flutter as to what is com
ing-his defensive qualities will b
greatly weakened.

G. O. P. Responsible for Un-
stable Condition Of Foreign
Exchange Says Nominee.
BY HARRY l.. ROGERS.
Iaterna tionsI News Service.

SOUTH BEND. Ind. Aug. 1s.-With
women enfranchised throughout the
United States Governor James M Coz.
Democratic candidate for President,
today emphasized his determination
more than ever TO make the League
OF Nations the supreme issue In the
1920 campaign.
In his speech here today he chal-
lenged the Republican opposition to
bring forward an effectual alternative
for the league. and declared there
isn't enough money in the world to
stop it," He accused the Republican
leaders of being "evasive. ambiguous,
and hypocritical," and blamed them
for the high cost OF living.
"If~the League OF Nations had been
ratified months ago" said the gov
ernor. exchange would have been
stabilized" and he then went on 10
explain that the delay OF Senatorial
action on the peace treaty was di-
rectly responsible for the erratic con-
ditions of foreign exchange, which.
in turn, he said, caused the imitation
of prices.
SENATE KEPT WAR TAXES.
"In fact. Europe would be buying
the things we can spare" the gov
ernor contended: Europe would have
started it's work OF rehabilitation; it's
countries would not have made a
drain upon our food supplies. Europe
would be buying the things of which
we have at present a surfeit The re-
suit of this would be self-evident.
War taxes, which should have been
modified or repealed when the war
was over. were not touched and the
Republican oligarchy In the Senate Is
directly responsible.
THE prevalent opinion is that the
Ways and Means Committee in the
House of Representatives at Wash
ington desired to shape the laws
which carry war taxes. But the re-
straining hand OF political policy was
imposed by the Senatorial leaders.
Business men in this State who
called upon Chairman Penrose came
back home firm in the opinion. which
they expressed without reservation.
that the Senate would take no action,
and that it was impelled by a desire
to continue burdensome taxation up
until 1920 on the theory that the peo-
pie would blame the executive rather
than the congressional administration.
REASON FOR BIG DEBT.
"The Senatorial leaders occasion
ally refer to the staggering war debt
of Europe, with a hint now and then
that it will never be paid. To be-
gin with. the national debt in Europe
before 1914 ran into billions and bill
lions of dollars, and they were oc-
casioned by the competition in the
building of armaments.
Each country kept its eye on it's
neighbors and the building of war
ships by one power meant the con-
struction of a dozen of warships by
several other powers. So that the
existing debt would not be nearly so
large except for the circumstances
here recited.
Nothing would more reasure the
world than the certani knowledge
that every nation could meet it's legal
obligations. If the world does not
proceed to arm itself to the. teeth, the
cost of armament is diverted to the
payment Of interest and sinking fund
on the bonded debt. then there is
more than a hope that civilization
can work its own way out to a
could fortify financially and econom-
