tContlnued from flTSt fdSe-l
ern New York state are rejoicing at
the announcement made today that
during the coming winter the Trunk
highways leading from New York TO
Canada win be kept clear OF snow,
thus affording them, they believe,
opportunity to make rum running
year-around occupation.
On the other hand. federal pro-
kibition enforcement agents and state
troopers declare that inauguration
Of the open-road policy during the
winter will mean the almost certain
capture of more liquor smugglers.
They point out that the total lack
of open byroads and much-used
short cuts will work havoc with the
plans of the smuggling agencies.
Such Of the roads as are cleared of
snow will be carefully patrnlled by
the authorities, it is learned here.
and there Is likely to be less chance
for the successful escape Of pur-
sued motorist.
With the coming of colder wealth
er, bootleggers who specialized in
running beer and ale earlier are
turning their attention to cargocs OF
hard liquors, principally whisky ana
gin. The low alcoholic content of
the beer makes it an undesirable win

of freezing, they explain.

ARLETT UNMOvED BY
BIG LEAGUE OFFERS
Oakland Club Turns Down
Chance to Sell Pitcher.
Garry Hermann of Cincinnati and
Charley Ebbets Of Brooklyn Sur
prised When Pacific Coast
Team Refuses TO Sell.

Some big league moguls, notably
Garry Hermann and Charley Ebbets,
were surprised that offers for Pitcher
Buzz Arlett of Oakland were turned
down by Cal Ewing and Del Howard.
They seemed TO have the idea that
any Coast league club had its price,
but they found that the Oaklanders
were not moved.
The Oakland club has signed Arlett
to a contract for next year and
means to keep HIM one more season,
after which he will be permitted to
60 to some major club IL he desires
but when it comes to desiring" the
story is that Arlett prefers the coast
to big-show fame and glory. And the
players wishes are entitled to some
consideration.
Talk to the Oakland magnates and
they will tell you that their city is
the coming metropolis of California +;
that they will have the best baseball
town in forty states in time, and that
when it comes to dollars and cents
stuff they wouldn't trade their pros
poets for a mortgage on any one of
a half-dozen major league cities.
Oakland last season inaugurated
the policy of playing all its home"
games at its own park instead of
splitting them with San Francisco.
Despite a lot Of bad luck, the expert
ment was satisfactory and the attend
ance all that was expected for a be-
ginning, and it is the conviction of
Ewing and Howard that Oakland will
the coming year rank well toward
the front in the matter of drawing
crowds.
Oakland's big asset is that it has
'room to crow" it already has pop.
| ulation of some 100000 to draw from
and the surrounding territory is
booming San Francisco, on the other
hand, is cramped for room and can
go so far and no farther. It is much
like the borough of Manhattan. Oak.
/ land is to San Francisco what Brook,
Ign is to New York.

Charles H. Muir, who commanded the
Twenty division, In which Col.
Onel Thompson commanded a bat
talon, decorated the Pennsylvania Le-
gion leader at Washington Previous
TO the ceremony Colonel Thompson
was entertained at luncheon by the
Pennsylvania delegation in congress.
The citation for the Congressional
medal came to Colonel Thompson as a
result of an act of valor in action near
Apremont. France, October I, 1918.
Counterattacked by two regiments
Of Germans, Colonel Thompson, then
a major Of the One Hundred and
Tenth infantry, encouraged his bat
TALON in the front line by constantly
Drawing the hazardous fire of machine
guns and artillery. His courage was
mainly responsible for the heavy re-
pulse Of the enemy.
Later in action, when the advance
Of his assaulting companies was held
up by fire from a hostile machine-gun
nest and all but one Of the assauItlng
tanks were disabled, Colonel Thomp-
son, rushed forward on foot three sep
arate times in advance Of his line, un-
der heavy machine gun and anti-tank
gun fire, and led the one remaining
tank to within few yards of the
enemy machine-gun nest. The tank
succeeded in reducing the nest, there
by making it possible for the infantry
to advance.
