AN IMPORTANT DECISION
THE United States court Of ap-

reversed a decision OF Judge An
derson of the federal district court
rendered in 1920, in which he held
that membership in the communist
party is not sufficient evidence Of
conspiracy to overthrow the es-
tablished form of government by
force. The case grew out OF the
action of Secretary Of Labor Will
son under the Woodrow Wilson
administration in arresting lot of
communists and holding them for
deportation. Judge Anderson held
that mere membership in the COM
munist party was not sufficient to
justify deportation. From this de
cision the government appealed to
the circuit court with the result
above stated.
The circuit court expresses the
opinion that Judge Anderson erred
in reversing the decision Of the
secretary of labor without having
satisfied himself that he had be-
fore him all the evidence upon
which that decision had been rem
dered. This is somewhat tech
nical point and the heart Of the
matter is reached by the verdict on
the communist party's attitude to-
ward constituted government.
Judge Anderson in his ruling said :
There is no evidence that the COM
munist party is an organization ad-
vocating the overthrow of the gov
eminent of the United States by
force and violence" The circuit
court on the other hand holds that
no Reasonable mind" is warranted
in reaching such a conclusion.
1t quotes from utterances attrib-
uted to the communist party as
follows:
Civil war is forced upon the
laboring classes, by their arch en-
emies. The working class must
answer blow for blow, if it will not
renouace its own object and its
own future, which is at the same
time, the future Of all humanity
The communist parties, far from
conjuring up civil war artificially
rather strive to shorten its dura.

may be proud of both of it's standard

on not only to play hard and highly
efficient ball but to give ample demon

Both clubs have great pitchers,
great outfielders. stellar catchers. But
it is of the infielders which we want
to write just now There have been
remarkable infields time and again in
this absorbing fight for the champion

LESS between students and alumni Of
the various schools.
Better intercollegiate athletics has
always been the aim of the Western
Conference and 1t has sponsored many
athletic reforms. Even before the Ma
tional Collegiate Athletic Association
suggested their adoption the conference
enforced many rules in the interest OF
clean sport, the value of which have
been so effectively proven that they have
now been almost universally adopted
throughout the country. Some of the
progressive measures In which the Big
Ten has taken the lead are enforcement
of the freshman rule, the three year
playing limit, the all year round coach.
strict adherence to the amateur rule,
the seven game football schedule. the
setting of a uniform date for beginning
football practice In the several institu-
tons. namely, September Is the fifteen
game basketball schedule, termination
of the football season not later than the
Saturday before Thanksgiving, and
many others. all OF which have resulted
in the betterment OF college athletics.
Appointment of this commissioner by
the Western Conference athletic directors
does not mean that conditions had
grown bad In the Big Ten. but rather
that the directors are all alert, practical
athletic men. who are not afraid to
stand by their convictions and adopt
progressive measures and businesslike

That polo is enjoying the most re-

Yost Explains Purposes
of Big Ten Commission
New Western Conference Sport Official Will Help Ath-
letic Directors Fight Existing Evils and Aid
in Enforcing Amateur Rules.
ny FIELDING II. YosT.

Much has been said about the reported
refusal Of Elmer Berry Of the Springfield
Training School to accept the position
as commissioner for the Western Con-
ference Athletic Directors, the position
to which Major John l.. Griffith has re-
Gently been appointed. The inference
has been drawn that Mr.. Berry did not
accept the position because he feared
the athletic directors would place such
restrictions about it as to hamper his
work. Any such idea as this is entirely
erroneous. The facts of the case are
that, although Mr.. Berry was inter-
viewed about the work. he was never Of
fered the position. He was, however,
stated that he considered 1t very pro-
gressive step that should accomplish
great good for intercollegiate athletics.
Mr. Griffith was the original and
unanimous choice of all the directors
and as soon as II was definitely known
that he was willing to undertake the
work no further consideration was given
to anyone else.
BY unanimous agreement, and of their
own accord. the athletic directors Gre
ated this office and asked their respec-
tive boards In control to appropriate sur
ficient funds to carry out the program.
The directors felt that conference ath-
letics were big enough and important
enough to warrant the expense OF hav-
ing one man give his entire time to ath-
letic matters which concern Jointly all
the Big Ten Institutions.
The work of the commissioner will
be along many lines. He will conduct
EDUCATIONAL campaigns TO get the many
bene fetal influences and real advantages
Of competitive college athletics before
the people who do not yet fully appre-
cate them He will assist the directors
In eliminating any evils that may exist
and will COOPERATE with them m the en-
forcefnent of the rules on amateurism.
The best methods OF handling rule in
fractions viii be determined and acted
upon by the commissioner. All the di-
rectors are committed to this plan of
cooperation and are sincere In their de-
sire for clean sport Unless II can be
proven that some are not sincere In
their Intentions II Is a gross injustice
to doubt their motives
Although probably 95 per cent. OF our
athletics are above reproach, we hear
SO much about the other per cent. that

Figures Are Intriguing.

Still figures always are interesting
They provide a concrete basis for dis
cussion-and discussion is the stuff
which gives a fine flavor to every world
series. So let us HE ourselves to the
mathematics for the infielders OF the
Giants and the Yankees-figures for hit
tina and figures for fielding.
FHr world series discussion the infield
of the National Leaguers is composed OF
George Kelly first base. Frankie Frisch,
second base Heinie Groh, third base
and Davy Bancroft. shortstop. With
Groh's knee always in danger of going
out of kilter the inner works may have
to include Rawlings once more as second
baseman, with Frisch shifted TO third.
The Yankees have Wallie Pipp on first.
Aaron Ward on second. Joe Dugan at
third and Everett Scott at shortstop.
Let us consider the highly important
factor Of batting first In this detail
the Giants hold the advantage in three
positions. Only Groh must yield to his
rival in the matter Of hitting. for while
Heinie has an average of .2S0. Dugan
shows mark of .299 Groh has been
Handicapped greatly by injuries this
year and his potential batting ability
is greater than that shown by the fig
rres However, there they are, with
Dugan leading him and showing the
greater effectiveness with men on bases.
The New York herald., 1922-09-24

1915 to 1858, but that means nothing
whatsoever. Kelly shows just one point
over Pipp 1898 to 992, Frisch shows
Just one point over Ward .9I3 to .972.
Scott shows twenty-five points over Ban
croft, and Dugan is six points ahead Of
Groh.
The shortstop situation of course Is
the most striking. Taking them for an
entire season, we would rather have
Bancroft than any other shortstop In the
game He Is the class of them ala
hard hitter, a great fielder even IL he
does make errors. Bannie is fast In the
aeld and on the bases. and he is out
there thinking all the time. He studies
his hitters and has an uncaDny way of
placing himself for the ball. He is ag-
gressive and game.
Scott, however, is one OF the greatest
money players in the history OF baseball
He is cool, phlegmatic. undisturbed by
the roar of the crowd and the fact that
big sums and coveted laurels are at
stake. He stays out there and does his
job. Bancroft is far more tempermental
he is of the nervous type, which is not
the best type TO have for worlds
series. However, he has everything in
his favor except temperament and
may field right up with Scottie.
Bnnnie Is Faster Man.
Bancroft is a master for starting
double plays and scooting over second
TO cut down hits. Scott looks better be-
hind third than he does over to his left.
Both are marvels and we may see one
OF the greatest shortstopping duels In
the history of the classic.
Rawlings Is not quite as fiashy a
fielder as McNally, but he is steadier.
Johnny hardly ever errs, and he goes
after everything. He Is not of the
ostentatious kind--but he gets there.
Great players all--these stalwarts OF
the New York innelds, greater than the
iniclds which played last season. Groh
must be regarded as an acquisition for
the Giants. Dugan Is tremendous inn
provement over Frank Baker whose
ground covering possibilities were not
very great last year. Pipp Is n new
player this year and Ward has de-
veloped remarkably both In grace and
general knowledge OF how to play his
position. This has helped Pipp no little.
