EARLY MORNING DOPE.

+ NEW YORK, Oct. manager
Higgins made desperate plans today
for the game in hope of stopping
the victorious march OF the Giants.
He plans to use Carl Mays On the
mound II Mays cannot hold the
Giants down he will make an even
more desperate play and use Bush
again with but two days rest.
McGraw with two victorious
chalked down can afford to take
chances and will either use Me-
Quillan CT Ryan with Snyder prob
ably behind the plate.
A heavy mist this morning APP
preaching driZzle combined with
the Weather Bureaus forecast OF
rain made it chance whether the
game will be played today.
Mist Over Crowds.
Nurk and mist filed the dark
hellows OF the Polo Grounds this
afternoon and Old Man Gloom sat
on the Yank's frontsteps
AS the time approached for the
third regular game of the series, des-
pite threatening weather, it was re-
garded probable that the game will
be played.
The Yanks were the home team
and the folks gave funeral well
come. The welcome given the Giants
was a joyful one
I'VE have the Yanks on the dead
run now, said Benie Groh.
The crowd came early and the
weather did not seem to rust the
edge. Even the field needed mois-
ture and the drizzle only served to
allay the dust.

WHEN GOOD is BAD

YESTERDAY VIC printed letter from a
j correspondent IN ChambersburG who.
being himself an earnest churchman. sought
an opportunity to express a sense Of anxiety
that has grown upon him as rcsul: OF tho
over -zealousness Of those workers for
righteousness whose zeal leads them TO
moods Of hysteria or tyranny. The bill
presented not long ago in the Legislature
Of Massachusetts, by a member who wanted
to pass n law making church attendance
compulsory on all citizens was the thing
that led the gentleman in Chambersburg 10
protest. He feared the effect Of this sort
Of thinking on the Church itself and upon
the country. And his fear is justified.
All the laws. all the prohibitions, all the
taboos and ali the police and Legislatures
in the world will not make men good il
they do not want to be good. When you
tell a man that this or that particular
thing must not be done YOU get nowhere
but into trouble. Tell man that thing
shouldn't be done. and you will be on the
right track.
The whole psychology of prohibition <
reflected in the difference between two
words Many people who never drank before
drink now because they We're forbidden 10
drink. There is very definite line beyond
which reformers may not safely 90 in their
efforts to compel righteousness in the people
Sf the United States. And because it is
frequently passed We have more trouble
than We would otherwise have had.

THE rift between the Fnirmount Park
i Commission and the general public will
be widened and decpened by the cold
blooded affront offered TO tho men Of the
Twenty eighth Division when they; were
summarily ordered from the small plaza at
the end of the Parkway near City Hall.
where, with Mayor Moores permission they
had arranged exhibition of arms and .
recruiting station. The commission has the
distinction of administering thc frs: dclib-
crate snub to veterans of the World War.
It Is not n sort of distinction to be proud
OF. The self-respcCt of the city itself Is
involved. The men OF the Twenty eighth
are the guests OF Philadelphia. and the
memory of Philadelphians is not so short
that they do not feel bound by honor and
sentiment to accord all possible courtesy to
the cx service men and to make their reunion
n success. The eviction of the soldiers
from the Parkway plaza may have been due
to red tape or the automatic operation of an
inhexibe rule, or to the increasing ex-
clusveness OF the Park Commission COL
lective mind. In any case it must be re-
gardcd as an astonishing display of bad
manners and bad taste. Mr.. Price and his
associates will live TO regret il. That is
certain. Meanwhile the people Of Philadel-
phia and the members OF the Twenty eighth
Division can only wonder at the incident and
speculate about the mystery Of public COM
mission which appears to be entirely out of
sympathy with the public Il is supposed to
serve.
Ground does no, become sacred when it is
brought under the rule of the Park Com
mission. The Parkway IS public property
and is for public uses. There is. indeed, n
serious question OF the right OF City Council
to give any city thoroughfare into the COM
missions control. That is aside. The
astonishing thing is the apparent inability of
the commissioners to perceive the require
ments Of the present occasion or share the
feeling Of the mass of Philadelphians in re-
lation to the Twenty eighth Division re-
union.
The austerity of the Park Commission
rule has become something Of a trial, despite
the excellence Of the administrative system
applied normally in the Park itself The
eviction of the soldiers from the Parkway
plaza Is reminiscent Of the order by which,
as soon as the boulcvards were put under the
Park Commissions direction, residents on
these great thoroughfarcs were not allowed
to park their own motorcars at their own
curbs. There was no parking rule in Fair
mount. SO there should he no parking
on Roosevelt Boulevard.
The commission has an air Of merely toler-
nting the general public on It's preserves. 1t
will not be permitted 10 maintain that at
titudc of mind for long. Il is now up to the
Mayor and all other municipal officials 10
atone as best they may for the ineXcusable
bad manners displayed By the park admins

eighth. For the whole city must bear at
