spirit alone prolonged the battle at
least "a hours.
Pat Moran didn't know the mean
ing Of the word quit. 1t was the
spirit of its leader that made the
Cincinnati club such a worthy foe.
Pat Moran was firm believer IN
the efficiency Of a smile. He was
true to his belief on the ball field
and off. His smile will live still to
those who knew him.
The Cincinnati club typificd the
spirit of Pat Moran. The Reds we're
one big happy family.
"Gcc, wish we could win for
Pats sake"
When in Orlando, Fla, last spring
looking the Reds over in training,
that seemed to be the answer Of
every member of the team, when
qucricd as to their chances of WIN
ming the National League pennant.
Pat Moran was fair, true sports
man.
] have umpired in number of
games in which his clubs have taken
part, two world series, and always
found him q square shooter.
National League umpires will miss
him. He never looked for the edge
and accepted the close ones that went
against him as gracefully as those
that came his way.
Too bad Pat Moran had to 20.
Baseball will miss him.

GENE TUNNEY
WINS BOUT
Held Victor on Points Over
Jimmy Delaney

St. Paul. March l8.-Gcnc Tunncy,
pion, outpointcd Jimmy Delaney, st.
Paul, in a fast l0-round bout here
last night, in the opinion of news
papcrmen, Tunney's rapid and vicious
body punching, varied with occasion
nj left hooks to the head giving him
the victory.
Content to let Delaney assume the
aggressive in the first part of the
bout, Tunncy took some hard
punches in the first few rounds
without an effective return. But
later he released an attack against
the body that had Delaney backing
up and covering.
Delaney, at all times moving to
the attack, also flashed forward with
occasional drives for the body which
he varied with straight left to the
jaw, but when the American light
heavyweight champion chose to ex-
crt himself, the st. Paul fighter was
Forced to see cover that proved
Intellectual against Tunneys light
ming thrusts for the ribs.
Tunncy demonstrated his super
iority clearly in the closing rounds
of the fight and for a time he aban-
doncd his attack against Dclancy's
mdsection to swing viciously and
accurately for the head. Several
times he put lcfts and rights to the
jaw, forcing Delaney into clinch
where his gloves beat tattoo against
the lattcr's ribs.
Delaney showed his most effective
work in the fifth round when, just
before the bell, he beat Tunney back
against the ropes with hard lcfts and
rights to the chin, but the American
champion evcncd matters next round
by punching n bloody stream from
Dclancy's nose.
Tunney weighed l76H pounds and

Billy Evans Says

Showing to advantage when the
going is toughest is the supreme
test. Coming through with base
hit, when a safe knock means the
ball game, is far more difficult than
with the bases empty.
The crisis, the pinch as We say in
sport, is the tough spot. 1t calls for
the best that is in the athlete. II
he has a failing in his makeup 1t
will crop out at such time.
Psychology plays its part in the
old pinch. There are some athletes
who are not lacking in courage 'pcr-
haps, yet who Invariably falter when
it is up to them to deliver the punch
that means victory.
Sheir temperament is such that
they cannot rise to the situation.
On the other hand certain athletes
regarded as only ordinary in the
long run shine in the pinch.
! know of big league players who
seldom hit better than $50 who are
more feared by pitchers than men
who boast an average of 100 points
better.
One of the most courageous ex-
hibitions that has ever come under
my observation on the ball field
was the no-run, no-hit game Charley
Robertson Of the Chicago White
Sox pitched against Detroit.
In this game Robertson accom-
plished the unusual feat of not al
lowing a single Detroit player to
reach first base. Each one of the q
men to face him was disposed of in
order.
The remarkable feature Of this
game was the fact that it was in
the spring of the year when pitchers
arc not their best and the advan-
tagc is always with the batsman;
also that it was Il recruit pitcher
working against the hardest hitting
aggregation in the American League.
However, to me the outstanding
feature was the way Robertson
worked under fire, the Detroit club
using every legitimate method to
break him down.
The contention was raised that
Robertson was doctoring the ball.
Trick pitching having been ruled
out. such practice was Of course
illegal.
Time after time, after player
had been retired, several members
Of the Detroit club would insist that
the umpire take n look at the ball.
1t had been raining for several
days prior to the game, the ground
was slow and heavy, and when the
ball struck the black dirt Of the in
field it soon became discolored.
Neither Dick Nallin nor myself
who umpired the game, could see
that Robertson was doing anything
illegal, but to avoid possible pro
tests threw out many balls and made
Robertson work with new ones.
Through it all Robertson merely
smiled, tossed the ball to the umpire
whenever requested without the
slightest show of indignation, and
tended to his knitting.
During the last five innings the
game was delayed score of times
to have the BALL examined. And it
seemed to me as if Robertson, realiz-
ing that he had the Tigers fused.
went through certain unnecessary
operations simply to excite the Curl
osity of the opposition. 1t was the
most courageous bit of pitching J

MINE BLAST
CAUSE GIVEN
Probably Result of Fire Boss
Forcing Pocket, Says
Statement

Salt Lake City. March lS-A
statement issued by c. b. Hotch-
kiss, assistant manager of the
Utah Fuel company, said that
evidence showed the explosion
which resulted in the death Of III
men in number 2 mine at Castle
Gate was probably caused by the

to force small pocket of gas out
of room in the sixth left dip in
the mine.

The statement follows:
IAN exploration party composed
of experienced state and govern
Ement officials and coal mine Off
L,cials. made Il thorough examination
|.of the sixth dip entry in the Castle
|sGate mine number , and found
,cvidence that the origin Of the eX-
|sploSion in number mine may
Fhave been at the face of number :,
lroom in this entry. There were
f.also certain conditions which might

Fration party. The indications are
Fsthat n small amount of gas had

MOBILES REFERENDUM

The Mobile Register is conducting a popular referendum on the question of whether or not the people of that com munity are for or against the Ford offer for Muscle Shoals. That great public interest is being taken in the bal loting is shown by the fact that at the close of the second day 2,925 votes had been cast. Mobile has been placed in an unwelcome light before the people of the state, who so cordially supported the program of seaport development of Mobile, by the testimony in Washington of Mobiles mayor in opposition to the Ford offer. Day by day it becomes con- vincingly clearer that the mayor spoke for himself and for the power trust, and not for the people whom he purported officially to represent. The people of Mobile resent the situation into which they were thus unwittingly plunged. There is good reason to believe that their response to the rest of the state by means of this balloting will be entirely reassuring

FATHER INTERNATIONAL LAW


 The three hundredth anniversary of Hugo Grotius, called ''the father of international law" falls in the same year with the death of Woodrow Wilson, who will be remembered as having done more than any other of his time to promote an association Of nations, to extend the scope of international law and to bring an everincreasing area of international disputes within the reach of peaceful settle ment In his work concerning the law of war and peace, which he was 20 years in writing Grotius was the first to make the attempt Ito obtain principle of right and basis for society and government outside of the church or the Bible." He found the source of his law in the nature of man as social being, and is entitled to the honor of being held the "founder of the modern science of the law of nature and of nations
 Grotius was in his day the "awakener of the conscience of humanity" and has had a profound influence on jurisprudence and diplo- macy ever since. America gave some intima' tion of her gratitude when the president of our delegation at the first international peace congress- held at The Hague in 1899. laid a wreath upon his tomb. It is particularly fit ting that the bar of America should have a part in celebrating the tercentenary of his birth by a memorial gift to Holland, where he was once a prisoner and whence he was later exiled, but into7.whose bosom he was finally received with pride and gratitude.
 America, mourningsat the grave of Wood' row Wilson, her great international states man, should. when she turns her face again toward her neighbors, remember his earlier international forbear, Hugo Grotius of Hol- land
