HORSESHOE GAMES
NOW in PROGRESS
TWO LOCAL TEAMS COMPETE FOR
WHITESIDE AWARD IN
TOURNAMENT

TheWhiteside awards in a horse
shoe pitching contest between two To-
cal teams chosen by Captains Snow
den and H. Collins, will have beer
won or lost by each team sometime
Friday evening, according to the
schedule for the game that began al
twO-thirty to determine the victOrs.
The teams commenced the tourney
at two-thirty Friday afternoon but the
game which was slated to consist OF
to enable the six men of each team
to meet every one of the players OF
the competing team, had not been
finished when The Star-Mirror went
to press.
The awards offered in the contest
consist of a two dollar prize for the
winners and one dollar prize for the
other team, according to awards put
up by w. w. Whiteside, local contrac-
tor In addition clash prize of
fifty cents will be given the high point
man of the series.
There is much ado in the realm of
horseshoes today regarding who will
receive the cash bonus. The contest
for first honors will be severe, it is
predicted and the man who wins, will
have earned the honors.
Those doped to take leading part
in the race for initial honors are w.
E. Snowden, drayman and veteran at
the game, who has consistently fea-
tured in the leads Of the various con-
tests played; Connie Estes, lad of
seventeen, who though but recently
made a member of the association, has
demonstrated considerable ability in
student at the university, who also
pitches wicked shoes; and various
others.
others who will be right along with
the names just mentioned when the
final count is made are Chas. Blanch-
ard, H. Collins, L. E. Brooks and W..
M. Hedge.
In fact the entire personnel of the
two teams is picked from the best
players of the city and whoever wins
will have done so only after mighty
1t would be hard indeed to
pick the man who is most likely to
come out on top, because Of the
strength of the lineups.
The members composing the teams
are: H. Collins, captain first team,
Chas. Blanchard, Connie Estes, L. r.
Brooks, K. Collins, T. H. Mcmillan;
w. E. Snowden, captain second team,
w. NJ Hedge, M. Mickey, G. Westover,
Glenn Robbins, e. M. Curtis.
Regulation games of fifty points
each are being played. The scoring
is also standard. Each ringer counts
three, unless it is topped by the op-
ponent, when it is cancelled. Each
shoe other than ringers counts one
point, providing 1t is the closest to.
the peg and is itself not more than
six inches away.
Numbers have been assigned play
ers for the first team from one to six
inclusive and for the second team from
seven to twelve, inclusive, and the
sets are being played off according to
a schedule prearranged.

BASEBALL BETTEH OF YEAR
 OF LANDlS SUPERVISION

Baseball after a year of Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, Is a rather nif- tier and more wholesome pastinae than it was when the famous 1jurist was first appointed high commissioner. Baseball justice, without fear or fa- vori mercy and forebearance without naudlin sympathy or sentiment, are meted out by Landis. He deals his cards squarely, predicates his every ac- ton upon the principle that the game is bigger than the individual, and rules with firm courage. If the judge con- tinues to administer the affairs Of base ball during the next several years, as he has contracted to do, there is not a shadow of a doubt in the minds of those close to the game that the many strides forward: already taken will be continued.
 Two serious problems have con- fronted Judge Landis since he first assured the post Of commissioner. He has had to deal with the five leagues which refuse to accept the ] draft, and he has been forced to sus- pend Babe Ruth. Of course, when one sinners the Ruth case down, it was not serious. A Zulu run amuck is a hard person to handle until some one cuts him down. As a rule the Zulu has HIS military poilCeIndIls anu fbuth sure met his Landis.
 | / A lot of steam has been hissing in the past couple of weeks about this draft. The minors are going to jump the reservation, and the majors are going to boycott the minors. Baseball is cutting up like two kid brothers over a bit of pie. But before the boys | got very far Judge Landis stepped in with sane and conservative sugges- 1 ton that will make for better under
 standing. His proposals U the minors
 carrying guarantees preventing whole
 sale raids and fixing what is believed to be a fair price for players, are
 sure to bear fruit.
 It may be that the Pacific Coast
 League, which refuses to admit it 1 not up to the standard of the major,
 may endeavor to obtain special clas Gification. It is hinted by those Whl

know that President Billy Mccarthy will urge the Pacific Coast League be declared a third major league McCar- thy's oratory, which is only second in beauty to the flora and sunshine of the Golden State, may say that the league ranks with the climate of the west, which is another way of saving 1t is second to none.
 But whatever the genial Californian may say in his own behalf Judge Lan- dis will answer in behalf of baseball The commissioner may not be as elo- quent as the gentleman from California but what he will have to say in refu- tation will be clear, concise and very much to the point. Terse utterance is characteristic of the jurist. Nothing of the big stick, except where necessary and then staggering force tempered With perfect justice. There you have Judge Landis.
 The American League is squirming bit under the force of the now ia nous Babe Ruth decision. Every cinb is affected but none asSgreatIy as the Yankees. Tet the New York owners are not protesting. Judge Landis gave Ruth every chance to present his case Tn dignified courteous manner. Now Ruth must abide the result of his act, and with him all of baseball. But don think for one minute Lardis will back down. He has spoken, not as Judge Landis but as Baseball Commissioner and his words in this are final.
 Just few days ago, at Buffalo. q baseball man sad: They'll bet all they want of Landis pretty soon." An other man of the game replied: Yes and~>its good thing. Baseball, has needed the Judge for a long time, and now l hope nothing will take him out of the post he holds. No petty politics may swine him. ne is severe but emil nenty just I'm for him, even if we are affected by his decision.'
