IS SISLER THE NEW TY COBB Baseball World Swinging From Regime of Georgian Peach to
 New Rule of Peachy George Brown Star Reaches Greatness
By Dean Snyder

They've called Ty Cobb the Geor. gia Peach for The last 15 years, but at this point in the drama enters Peachy George.
 It now remains for the world to staRt calling the Brown star-THE GREAT GEORGE SISLER.
 This tribute is certainly due the superb St. Louis first baseman
 Pushed by .one of the hardest hit ting fields in the history of the game, SisleR is climbing higher into the hall of baseball fame each week.
 During the last four years of Ty Cobbs reign in the Johnson family of swatters, the Brown first baseman has been approaching greatness.
 This year with the Georgia Peach in the background, due partly To a getaway slump and later to accident Sisler has occupied the batting throne.
 His bat has clicked through the first half of the 1920 American League season at a AT pace.
 Each wEek he is being forced to extend his powers. For looming back of him is a wonderful trio of rivals Joe Jackson, Iris Speaker and the rampaging Babe Ruth
 Asis the general rule with all ball players, their fielding improves along with their hitting. A new con fidence is born in player, when he is connecting regularly. He takes bigger chances. The crowd psychol- ogy boosts him and the breaks go with him.
 Fleet-Foot
 Like Cobb, Sisler is fleet-foot There aren'T any faster runners in the big. leagues than George. The slightest hesitation on the part of a fielder in handling a ball off SislerS bat and that ball goes for a base hit
 His sensational fielding at first has revived the same kind of thrills thar Hal Chase used to give the GUS torc-s. He works over head with quito as much grace as when hand Iing tho low throws.
 Sisler is a college product, having filtered through the university halls at Ann Arbo-, Mich. He is just in tho r-.rro Of his career, being 27 vc5T3 old.
 What is Ahead WtCtnor he can maintain the Ter rife batting pace he has set during the first half of the season is an op- en bit of speculation' with the odds in his favor.

Hartman is going up against one of the hardest men that he has ever fought. Goetz has just returned from the Philippines, where he did some fighting in the army camps.
 The first preliminary will be four rounds between the ever smiling Battling Herrera and Fighting Red Rawley of the Motor Transport Corps, stationed at Douglas. This fight will be interesting from the fact that Rawley is also Bisbee boy and has won all his fights by send ing his opponent into. dreamland.
 The curtain raiser will be four rounds between Red Milburn of Tombstone Canyon and Young Cha veg. a promising young Mexican youth.
 From all appearances, there will be as many out of town fans at this fight as local men. A block of about 50 seats was sold yesterday after noon to Tombstone fans and several will come up from Naco and Cananea Tucson and Douglas fight enthusi- asts have already made their reser- vations and a large delegation from each city will be at the ringside.

Bolshevism is not confined to
a small group of bearded bomb
throwing aliens. For centuries
there has been groups of this
class known at different times
under different names, but it
has been only with in the last
two decades that the scarcely
less obnoxious types have invad-
ed other than political and gov
ornamental fields.
On closer inspection, however
it may be said that Bolshevik
of this class spread a more in
siduous form of propaganda
and are even more dangerous
than those employing the crude
methods necessary for haste.
Instead of seeking to cut out
the rotten and decaded portions
they have fought all institutions
as a whole and through their
cunning and subtle suggestions
have sought to gain public OPP
inions and enlist men with the
sanest of minds as advocates Of
their cause.
Every available medium has
been utilized for getting their
systems Of destruction before
the public and the time has come
when only both personal and
national freedom from gossip
and greed can the clean minded
fight this menace.

The school term will be one

this term, instead of one humid
red and twenty (120) days as
formerly. (see section 81, page
25, School law
Schools must be maintained
for the full term and can not be
closed for "lack of funds" as
Boards of education have power
to lay levy sufficiently high to
provide the necessary funds.
(See Section 5 (c) page 70
School law
With this additional expense
on the Taxpayers it is impera-
tive that all children of school
age should be kept in school.
To that end the "Truancy Law
should be strictly enforced. If
possible teachers should inform
themselves as to the cause of a
pupils absence before report
ing to the Attendance officer"
We sometimes hear parents
say" I don't like that teacher
and won't send my children to
him." Let me say right here
that if you could find a teacher
that everybody LIKED, he could
not afford to teach school, as he
could command much higher
salary as a curiosity in a'Dime
Museum"

The continuing depletion Of

The continuing depletion OF
coal at the mines and the inabil-
ity of the railroads to fully sup
ply the coal with cars, has been
causing a great deal of concern
in Washington; and the old
champions Of government own
ership" ideas have been in evid-
ence trying to show that
the railroads under private own
ership are not operating to their
greatest efficiency. They are
even crying out again for "gov
eminent operations" Of the coal
mines.
There is no use ignoring the
fact that the Government did
not supply new equipment for
the Railroad Administration
was in charge; and it also sho-
uld not be forgotten that for the
past five years the railroads
have been so upset by political
interference that investments
in this class of securities slowed
down, and new development
came to a standstill.
Handicapped on every side,
the Commission of Car Service
Of the American Railroad As
ISOLATION with the cooperation
of the Interstate Commerce
Comission, has been doing a fine
service for the country in fight
ing against a coal famine.
In spite of strikes and insult
ficiency Of labor and the esult-
ing congestion, and in spite of
the shortage of cars, the rail
roads have transported 40,100,
900 net tons of bituminous coal
in excess of the production dur
ing the corresponding period of
1919. The year 1920 is still APP
proximately 16,500,000 tons be-
hind 1917, but with the special
efforts toward improving the
transportation of coal made pos
slble by the recent orders OF the
Interstate Commerce Commiss-
ion authorizing the railroads to
give preference to coal ship
ments, it is hoped that the bal
ance Of the year will show an
even better record.
Anthracite shipments during
the year have been 40,099,000
net tons, or 9 per cent over 1919.
The figures are taken from the
weekly bulletin of the United
States Geological Servey, which
attributes the failure to make
even greater records Largely to
the effect of the railroad stri-
kes.
