INDIANAPOLIS
CLUB WINS, 27O

The Indianapolis Football Club de-
feated the Alexandra Tigers at Eagles
Park yesterday in a hard-fought and
wen-played game. q to 0. The Ander-
son Starlands were to have opposed the
local team but were unable to get to-
gether and the Tigers filled the date.
The winners used the aerial game eff
fectively, making many long gains from
forward passes. while the visitors had
little success at open play and still less
al line plunging. The local backs ripped
off several lengthy runs and were given
ample protection by the line, which held
better than on last Sunday. The Frank
fort eleven will provide the opposition
for the locals at Eagles Park next Sun
day. In the preliminary game the Rupps
won from the Belmont Seconds, 80 to 6.

the ponies land between the three
places the Maryland race tracks are
open several months each year. They
are patronized principally by Balti-
more, Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Washington race track enthusiasts.
1t has got to such point that every
newsstand in Washington is covered
with race track newspapers. The
columns of the daily newspaper carry
all kinds of tips, and the crowds be-
fore a bulletin board in Newspaper
Row when the Maryland races are In
progress, might lead one to think
that the returns were coming in from
a presidential election unless he
knew otherwise. Admittedly Mary
land is the arch-hive Of racetrack cor
ruption, and it's legalized forms of
gambling have spread far and be-
yond it's border. If Mr.. Davis's
testimony, as noted above, is correct
and it likely is, the Pimlico, Laurel
and Havre deGrass bets may be
multiplied a great many times to
represent the turnover occasioned by
the racing on those tracks. Betting
on races is against the law in the
National Capital, but police reports
show that the law in the National
Capital is broken, for out of fifty ar
rests of bookmakers there were only
one or two convictions. Quite often
members of the police department
sent out to round up the bookmakers,
fail in their purpose because they
are let in to take few "sure things"
instead. Joseph P. Tumulty in his
stories of "In the White House
Looking Glass" has told amusing
anecdotes about a certain Sem
ator's gains and losses at
the Maryland tracks. To their ere
dit it may be said that but few Sena-
tors bet on the races, and the charac-
ter of the House membership causes
most of them to likewise abstain.
Nevertheless in the diffrent stratas
of life, from Senators to bootblacks,
there is positive mania for betting
on the ponies. The epidemic has be-
come so widespread that Congress is
attempting to curb it. The propos-
ed remedies seek to shut news of the
races out of the newspapers, and this
has resulted in concerted opposition
on the part of publishers who have
been telling the Senate committee
that the proposed measures would
@muzzle the press" In support of
this contention they point out that
the same character of news is con-
tanned in all daily newspapers that
carry market reports and the quota
tions and sales of stocks and bonds.
Evidently the lawmakers are not get
ting at the root of the racetrack evil,
and when one asks them about it
they ask in return how they can do
anything to prevent an evil which

BETTER DAY FOR
THE FARMERS
The report of the Secretary Of
Agriculture is radiant with optimistic
hopes for better conditions for the
farmers. This Department is in
position to carefully analyze the
affairs of agriculture, and when it
talks about the better times that
should come "from now on" the
message should be considered as pre-
saying in some degree, at least the
improvement of unsettled conditions
in agriculture.
The most formidable political
group there has been in the Capitol
within a generation is made up of
the agricultural bloc" of the Sen
ate and House. This nonpartisan
group merely takes the position that
agriculture is the most important in
dustry in the country and that it
should be considered first in matters
of legislation. A program of leg
islation is gradually being agreed
upon, and while nothing in this pro-
gram will seek in any way to inter-
fere with the regular channels of
lom;clo five hucinacc thp work has
gone out, and everyone understands,
that agriculture and its interests
must come first. Even the Repub-
lican program in regard to the tax
bill had to suffer defeat at the hands
of this "bloc" which insisted on
amending it according to what it be-
lieved to be the s'first interests" of
the farmers.
