SENATORS REGRET
COOLIDGE SILENCE
Holder of Dual Role Carries
No Gossip From Cabinet
to Legislative Hall.

VICE President Coolidge has never
been what you might call a garrulous
man. and when he was Governor of
massachusetts, his tongue was not
hung in the middle" But senators
say that in those days he was a veri-
table babbling brook of communica-
ton compared to what he has been
since he took up the dual role Of hold

in the Senate and occupying a seat at
the .capinet table twice a week.

a hand in a friendly game: he would
prove formidable adversary.

They realize, however. that the
Vice President holds a delicate posi-
ton, and that probably his only safe

He is the repository of an unlimited
quantity of senatorial talk, plans and
policies, and il is assumed that he is
just as reticent in -he cabinet room
about them as he is in the Senate
cloakrooms about the cabinet
There is no particular objection to
his performance of the dual roles.

once in a while and discuss with

vises Fairgrounds. is not opposed to
the boys Of Washington being per.
mitted to play base ball on the mu-

permitted to use the small diamond

the soft type of ball. Men have been
given the use of the large diamond
atz Rossdele Sundays for some time.
Mrs. Rhodes stated today that she
has never advocated Sunday base ball
on the Fairgrounds because she does
not believe the Fairgrounds should be
open without a caretaker present. and
working seven days a week.
In declaring himself not opposed
TO Sunday afternoon base ball for
boys. Commissioner Oyster voiced the
belief that it would keep the boys off
the streets. He made it clear. how
ever. that he would not approve of
Sunday ball at any hour when it might
conflict with Sunday school or church
attendance.
While boys and girls have always
gone TO many of the Fairgrounds Sun
day in small groups, there has never
been organized play under municipal
leaders Sundays.

Congress gave the Fairgrounds de-
partment lump sum appropriation
last year for the employment of extra
watchmen at 2o cents an hour, but
this fund has been exhausted. The
new appropriation will be available

At present the only playground con-
sidered for Sunday afternoon ball for
