sist they are doctoring the ball, re-
sorting to trick stuff.
The reputation gained for triakery
when that style of pitching was
much used, still clings to these GER
tain pitchers. Opposing clubs al
ways have an alibi on that score
when they fail to hit. Players have
the best of memories.
The custom of "dusting off bat
ter" throwing the ball close to his
head in an effort to intimidate
him, is also another unsportsman-
like act that makes for much trou-
hle.
In baseball certain pitchers early
in their career get a reputation fol
using the bean ball" in an effort to
increase their effectiveness through
intimidation.
While there really is never a de-
sire on the part Of the pitcher to
actually hit the batsman, his intent
is to come as close as possible.
1t is a dangerous and unsports
manlike act that has no place in the
game but has always existed.
Here again bad reputation works
for evil.
If a pitcher, who has a habit of
"dusting off the batter" accidently
hits player with pitched ball. it
is never so cons idered. His bad repu-
tation makes the players feel thai
the act was premcditated.
1t is to be regretted there is no
way to actually determine just how
far the pitcher is going in this dan
gerous practice.
Years ago some one suggested to
Walter Johnson, veteran star pitcher
Of Washington, that he would be fan
more effective if at times he purj
posely became wild, to which he re-
piled.
when l have to do that to win
ball games, am going to quit."
Would there were more Walter
Johnsons. Baseball would be a bet
ter game.

Tommy Titmouse settled down on
palm tree to rest.
"My, it's hot" said Nancy.
Eyes, Egypt is warm country"
said Johnny Jump Up. "While we
are resting, I'll, tell you little about
it. Soon we will come to river.
1T is called the Nile and it is the,
longest river in the world. There
is no water in Egypt except along
the Nile River, so all the people live
there. Egypt is thousands of miles
long, but only few miles wide. 1t
is like a long ribbon"
"Come on, I'm rested now" said
Tommy Titmouse. 81 wonder if we
will see our friend, the stork, whom
we met in Holland. He said he lived
in Egypt sometimes"

Holland said Johnny Jump Up.

it gets cold in Holland
."Why, there is the Nile River
now" said Tommy as he flew along.
"Do look at those queer pink birds
with the long necks wading in the
water"
"Those are flamingoes," said John
ny Jump Up.
ooh, and there are some men rid
ing, on camels," cried Nick. "They
look like circus"
"People in Egypt use camels in
stead of horses" explained Johnny
Jump Up, "because they can stand
heat better and don't sink into the
sand"
Here are the pyramids" said
Johnny Jump Up. "They were built
by the kings Of Egypt thousands of
years ago. There are no doors or
windows or any way to get in or
ou."
"Where is King Tut's tomb ?"
as Nancy.
"Over there" said Johnny. "But
there is nothing much to see but a
hole in the ground. The sand has
blown over it and covered it all up
in three thousand years"
"Oh, look" shivered Tommy Tit
mouse as he flew along the river
bank. what are those creatures
lying there in the water? They've
got eyes like teacups."
.They are crocodiles," said Johnny
Jump Up. asa
"Well, I've seen enough of Egypt"

STRIBLING IS
TOUGH BOY
Billy Conlev, North Dakota
Boxer, Tells of Fight
With Him

Young Strbling. the Georgia
school boy boxer who has made a
rapid climb to pugilistic fame, Is
not over-rated. according to Billy
Conley Fired Barth), North Dakota
middleweight, who recently fought
Stribling in Ohio. Conley stopped
here to visit his brother, Jacob
Barth and sister, Mrs. II. Dralle. on
his way to Wallace, Idaho, where he
fights Bob Sage of Detroit in 20
round battle on July 4.
"Stribling is good in-fighter,
said Conley, "but | think Harry Greb
will beat him on July A. l believe
Stribling could knock out Georges
Carpentier-I could knock him out,
too. Carpenter is one-hand fight
err. and that's all
Conley was forced to quit his bout
with Striking, but he knocked the
Georgia flash down early in their
fight.
After | knocked Striking down,
he put his right hand up to his jaw
and kept it there; then he bored In
and Rugged me close" said Conley
"He is "a purely an in-fighter and a
good one | think he fouled me ~
times but the referee didn't call
them. Stribling is a cautious boxer,
too"
Conley wants to meet Stribling
again and he hopes to fight Harry
Greb. Conley, who weighs 160
pounds, left Mott, North Dakota
seven years ago and has been fight
ing on the west coast until recent
ly, when he has been in Ohio. He
is willing to box in North Dakota on
his return from idaho providing
he can get good match. He expects
to fight Jeff Smith in Indianapolis
July 25, he said.

now laying claim to the distinction
of having the champion marathon

compiled total of 10,098, an

His high game was 266. 1t took him
just seven hours to successfully

Secretary Mellon has maintained
from the first that the masses of wage
and salary earners who pay income
taxes will benefit from reduction
of the surtaXes.
Position Of Republican Party.
The position of the Republican
party on this matter is shown by what
the Republican national committee has
just had to say on the subject:
The Democratic tax plan would
)ntinue to drive men of wealth to
invest their capital In non-taxable Sc
curities and thereby diminish the
taxes which men of wealth pay the
federal government. The Mellon tax
plan reduces the surtax rate to point
where men of wealth would find II
more profitable to invest their money
in industry, business and other profit
able enterprises and pay taxes on the
profits they make at the surtax rate
fixed by the Mellon plan, than they
would to invest their money in tax
exempt securities"
The Democrats combat this view and
so prominent Democrat and financier
as William G. McAdoo, one time sec
rotary of the treasury has declared
the Republican argument ais all bunk"
The desire of the Republican leader
of the house of representatives
Nicholas Longworth, is to effect com
promise on the surtaX rate matter
which will bring to his support those
Republicans who believe that the sur
tax should remain where 1t is at
80 per cent figure rather than be re-
duced to the % per cent figure asked
by Mr.. Mellon.
The Democrats in their plan have
agreed upon a Al per cent figure for
the surtaxes. If the Republican
leader can effect the compromise tina;
he wishes 1t is believed that the final
surtax figures will be 80 or 81 per
cent.
Arguing Against a Deficit.
One of the Republican arguments is
that the present tax law together with
the tariff law as 1t exists provides
enough money to meet the operative
costs of the government and to admit
q surplus of over S350,0OO,000. This
surplus, they say, could be used to
pay off the public debt at n faster rate
than Is now the case, but they add It
also could be squandered in appropria-
.tions. The Republican declaration is
that the policy of the administration Is
to do neither of the two things. at
proposes to reduce the taxes sufficient
ly to eliminate the surplus" But"
1t is added, sit is apparent that taxes
cannot be reduced in the aggregate
more than the existing surplus, else
there will be a deficit. 1t is not
economy, it is not even common sense.
to propose tax reduction program
which on the face of it Immediately
will produce a national deficit"
The Democrats in congress are meet.
ing such statements as this with their
own arguments in rebuttal. They
maintain that the taxes can be re-
duced S623,000,000 without injury to
surplus or anything else. 1t will take
a good while for any tax reduction bill
to prove whether it will work i'll or
good to the country. Therefore il
seems to be certain that during the
coming campaign all that can be said
for or against the effect of any tax
legislation must largely be in the ma
ture of surmise.
