NEW YORK FANS
 WELCOME BASEBALL
Plenty Of Enthusiasm USherS in
 1922 Season at Polo Grounds

New York. April 12.-Warm wealth CT, but overcast skies ushered in the baseball season Of 1922 here today, Weather forecasts, however, brought cheering assurance to the fans of Manhattan and Brooklyn that the clc- ments would not mar the big day of the year for those who went to the Polo Grounds to see the National league teams of the two horoughs begin hostilities.
 Douglas or Nehf were the pitchers considered as most likely to face the barrier for the Giants. while Dutch" Ructher, whose work had shown re- markahle form, was looked upon as the hurIer for Brooklyn,
 Frisch Out Of Game New York was without the services of Frisch, second hascman. who was sent home from the south with an in fected foot, hut his place was taken by Rawlings. who played a star gamc in the worlds series last fall. Brook lvn presented her strongest lineup. High, the new Dodger shortstop and De Berry, a catcher, new to the lofOOklyn uIllDTill were lHt SlTdHSf faces in the outfit commanded by Wilbert Robinson.
 John J. McGraw, pilot of the New York Giants, worlds champions, be- iieved his combination was q better one than last years aggregations, but nevertheless he said the breaks would determine the outcome.
 Rn,vliprS Good Sub
 Heinie Groh has strengthened the tear, at third base, but an injury to t'risch the star second base man, may detract for a time from the all-round playing of the first defense. Johnny Rawlings, however, is not poor sub s;itute in McGraw's opinion.
 "I never predict where my team is going to finish at the end of the sea son." said McGraw I'm too long in the business for that. But we'll be right in the fight from the start and the fans can look forward to a lot of good baseball at the Polo Grounds this season. E..

C0NGRATULATES TIGERS
Yale Daily News Editorially Compli- mcnts Princeton For Stand Taken iR Barring Eighteen Athletes.

New Haven, April 12.--The Yale Daily News told Princeton yesterday that it did good job in barring eigh- teen athletes and it warned Yale and Harvard athletes to watch the danger signal. Editorially The News said:
 Though the loss of men may be keenly felt, Princeton may hold up Ter head in pride that she has made ! move which is definitely in the di- rection of clean athletics. Sport for sports sake and not for vctory's is the aim of the American university in the present day. Princeton is to be congratulated on her advance to- yard this goal. s.
 Tt must be firmly borne in mind that there is no charge of profess sionalsm against the barred Prince ton athletes.
 'The failure of the men lately de- clared ineligible lay in their failure to report their financial status to the proper body This action on the part of Princeton spells danger in red letters to other Yale, Harvard or Princeton athletes at present or fu- ture, who neglect this full report Of finances"

STARTS FIGHT
TO REDUCE SALE OF DRUGS

whole movement for drug control is
officially described as follows:
Under the international convention
of 1912 it was provided that the sta
tisticaI information concerning the
drug traffic should be received at The
Hague, the Netherlands government
being charged with the appropriate
duty in this respect. Under Article
23 Of the Treaty of Versailles It was
agreed that the general supervision of
the execution of the international
agreement relating to opium should
be transferred to the League of Ma
tions.
AS the United States did not ratify
the Treaty of Versailles the matter,
so far as the United States is concern
ed was left subject to the internation-
al convention, which the United States
has been at all times ready to carry
out. 1t could do nothing else. The
Dutch government was so informed as
the treaty in existence could not be
modified, so far as the United States
was concerned, except by new treaty.
That, in a nutshell is the American
attitude toward the League on the
opium question. Hughes has sent no
recent communication on this subject
as there has been no occasion for such
Ia communication. Officials believe
reports of information transmitted to
the league by the Dutch government
may be based upon the transmission
of data obtained by the Dutch lega-
ton here and forwarded to The Hague.
Secretary Hughes has designated e.
Il. Neville, of the United States consul
lar service, and formerly in the far
eastern division of the state depart
mcnt, as his official representative up
on the committee formed under the
Jones' Miller law.
Statistics now under consideration
by these officials show that Turkey,
Persia and India are the principal
producers of opium, while China also
produces considerable amount. The
greater part of the opium used in the
United states comes from Smyrna.
