Coveted Places.
THRILLING FINAL TILT
BY WOODY

BY WOODY.
Now that the sectional tournament is
over, there comes the hardest and most
criticized task Of aI-the selection of an
u-sectiOnal team.
In picking the team there are many
things to take into consideration, par
ticularly the ability Of the forward to
score, Of the guard to keep opponents
from registering and Of the center to
make a fifty fifty proposition of both.
In the local sectional tourney, Griggs,
II. HarmesOn and Prout were, without
any dispute, the best forward center
and guard, respectively. that were seen
on the floor at the Coliseum. L. Harme-
son of Manual and Nipper of Tech won
places on the first mythical team for their
ability to score consistently. Although
NIpper was placed at guard by Coach
Black he would lit in as a good scoring
forward. What points II. HarmesOn- did
not score for Manual his brother Emil
did Together the Harmeson brothers
scored 40 per cent of Manuals points.
McMulltn was a world of strength to
the Valley Mills team. He played a good
passing and guarding game throughout
the tournament. The lanky center also
scored most OF the Valley points.

Tech displayed wonderful brand Of

PLAYERS GIVEN REST
BY EDDIE ASH,
Daily Times Sports Editor.


CROWLEY, La, March THE In
dams were to stage their first game Of
the season today at the local ball park
and baseball fans from miles around
were expected to witness the fracas. It
was to be a brief affair betwee-> two
teams selected from the squad by Man
ager Hendricks, and instead Of calling
the outfits by the usual training camp
names of Regulars and Yannigans, tina
Tribe pilot injected the spirit Of Louisi-
ana into the affair by using the names
Magnolias and Mocking Birds.
The Tribe athletes were given rest this
morning and nearly all the players took
treat ments from Trainer Wiggam. Ths
hard practices of Saturday and Sunday
had some Of the warriors begging for
mercy last night, so Hendricks called an
armistice and permitted them to remain
in bed this morning. Pitcher Sterling
Striker reached camp Sunday and took
part In the Sabbath day workout. He Ia
overweight and needs plenty Of work,
in shape early.

day. He has been working out with

arrived in time.
Owner Smith announced today that he
would do no more coa1ing in dealing
with Tex Covington and Walter Rehg
and would start negotiating at once with
the view of obtaining men to fill their
places. Both are good hitters, but their
value to the team is diminished when
they fail to take advantage of spring
training. Both grumbled last spring, and
as a result they were not ready when
the season opened and they delivered but
few hits until the race was about three
weeks gone.
Attreau, the Chicago semt-pro, is show
ing up well around the first sack and II he
is able TO hit fast pitching he will be
given thorough chance to ill Coving

League outielder, is a race horse and ap-
parently a good hitter. He VIII make 3

means to give him careful attention. OF
the rookie pitchers in camp Ettling and
Bartlett are showing the best action.

THE "PRoTEcTIoNIsT MIND"

National Republican,
The New York Times critcises
Lloyd George for expressing appre-
hension lest an inundation of the
British market with German made
goods in payment of indemnities may
produce unemployment in England.
Even British statesman's argu-
ments for protection do not appeal to
the Times, which says: "The protec-
zionist mind breads an abundance Of
goods" That is a dishonest state
ment of the case The protectionist
mind breads an abundance of for
eign- made goods accompanies by an
absence of ability to buy them due
to unemployment created by the de
struction of home production. SO
does the free trade mind. when it
operates periodically as is evidenced
hy Lloyd Georges apprehensions Of
dumping Bismarck had common
sense enough to comprehend the in
Jury inflicted upon German industry
by the inundation Of Germany and
the prostration of German industry
by French importatons in satisfac-
ton of the indemnity imposed after
the Franco Prussian war If we did
not have newspapers and politicians
speaking i'm this country for import
ing and alien banking and trading in
forests nothing would be heard in
the United States in favor of de-
stroying American production through
breaking down of all barriers between
the home market and the alien com
mercial invader. If these organs and
politicians would only explain the
viewpoint from which they argue it
would be possible for the public to
place more accurate estimate upon
the valne of their concentrations

BEWARE OF GOVERNMENT OWN
ERsHIP PROPAGANDA.

In the controversy between railroad
employers and employees, which
threatens TO consume weeks or
months before a settlement is finally
arrived at. the public should be on its
guard against the wiles of the gov
eminent ownership fanatics. Despite
the tremendous improvement in our
transportation that has marked the
return to control of the private own
ers of the roads, those men are I'M
willing to admit that federal opera
ton was extravagant or inefficient
They seize upon every pretext to inn
press their arguments anew upon the
people, and a disturbance in the rail-
road world like the present one over
wages gives the government owner
ship agitators just the opportunity
they want to start talking again.
There are certain faults in the rail-
road situation that must be corrected
either by legislation or otherwise, be
fore efficient transportation at a min
imum of cost will be realized. 1t was
freely admitted by the authors of the
act of last year that
the law was not perfect and that
doubtless amendments to IT would
have to he made as occasion required
The interstate commerce experts of
the senate and house are making an
intensive study of the whole situation,
and will report to congress during the
special session the necessary steps to
take to correct matters. The country
may rest secure in leaving the ques-
ton to those men for solution. OF
one thing they may be sure, that bad
off as the roads are today they do not
approach the chaotic condition in
which they were during the two years
IF government operation. 4 return to
hat system would be decided
'hange for the worse.

BONUS BILL WILL IMPOSE A
HEAVY TAX.

We wonder if the ex-service men
who are urging congress to pass The
cash bonus bill fully realize the ex-
tent of the burden it's passage would
impose upon the people of the ma
ton, people who are already taxed
beyond their ability to pay? The
theory of the bill is that those who
were in the military and naval ser
vice during the war were deprived Of
opportunity for profit in the way of
high wages ard salaries. advantages
which were enjoyed by those who re-
NAMED at home and that it is on
y fair that the soldiers should be
imbursed for this lost opportunity.
The proposed measure is wrong in
both theory and fact The defense
of ones country in war is not ser
vice that is properly measured in
cash. 1t is a duty that devolves upon
every citizen. Those who are physi-
cally tit must fight the battles and
those who are not must remain at
home and supply the sinews of war.
That many of the latter take advan-
tage of their countrys' predicament
to exact unjust profits is one of the
unfortunate circumstances in con-
nection with all wars. If these could
be made to disgorge their graft and
distribute it among the ex-service /
men. it would be a happy solution of
the question But this can not be-
and therefore if the proposed bill
should be enacted, the burden would
have to be borne by millions Of peo- /
Pile who enjoyed no extra income dur
ing the war. but who did give until it /
hurt" in their efforts to help win the /
war. The passage of this bonus bill /
would mean a heavy tax for a good .
many years in addition to the present /
heavy tax to meet the running ex-
penses of the government and dis
charge the enormous war debt. The
cash bonus bill according to those
who have analysed it, would impose
