CRIME AND THE LAW

Judge Scott Onutt, president of the
 Maryland State Bar association, arises 10 remark before the annual conyen- ton of the association thatathe reason why there is more crime in the United states than in Europe is because there are so many different races in this country and because the newspapers have been read by jurors, whose verdicts oftcntimes he described as merely 'the ratification Of popular public verdict"
 The learned judge is careful not 10 place any blame forscrime upon legal procedure as it has been developed in thls country. The absurd technicali- ties Of defense lawyers which SO fre- quently make il impossible 10 con- yiet criminals, obtains the customary whiteWash.
 The judge Is one Of those persons who blame all the crime in America upon foreigners who are supposed to have no respect for the law. The native born, however, has contributed his full share to crime statistics and has been proficient in not getting caught or getting freed after he was caught. Gun-toting in the south and southwest Is common. and inc gun owners arc usually native born. Fends and murders abound; also lynchinEs and ku klux outrages. To assume that contempt for law Is concentrated in foreigners is an error. It is serious enough among a certain class Of for- cigners. but the point is they are not alone in their disregard for jaw.
 The main trouble lies in tho difficult ty Of conviction. which is entirely due 10 inc complicated process. The judge says Iurors are svaycd largely hy the newspapers: fl That were tf1e. and jurors voted according 10 such mental influences instead Of listening to inc spacious pleas and sympathy rtapirap tsrrared in ths e5urtroUms. they w"uiI ,rte EtHlty nine times out ot feu.
 Heretofore the whine has hreu that Inc newspapers tend 10 make jurors conclude a criminal IS really guilty btfare the trial. This Maryland judge is tho first uho claims that ths news aperz d1 the reverse. It is a common practice st tfIais 10 asi. prospective jurors # they have read tbe ness- papers in regard t0 tHe csse. and those Hh0 answer in ths anirmafise arc looked 8ugn with suspici5n by agl good 8tfaHra tswysrs The assumption is strong 4n such cases that tHr jurors hsta already decided that tha prisoB- ag at tHe f4r is rtHf'y as nost nrHs- paper atrUBnts oI serious crime eiear- .y rsnee; details thst usaally are un- tstors HIe to ths prisoner.

his educated toe has more than once
during his career gained several
yards for the Bison team by means

Greatest of All Times
OTHER BIG GAMES

Chicago, Oct. 2O-The big games
of the 1924 football season got fair
ly under way Saturday. Thrilling
contests with Il few surprises result
ed. Huge crowds attended games,
probably the largest crowd in the
country being the 10000 that jam

The outstanding performance in
football east or west, was the vic
tory Of Illinois over Michigan by a
80 to Ia score. The two teams fin
ished the Big Ten season last year
unbeaten. Harold Red" Grange, the
versatile Illinois halfback, gave one
of the greatest individual perform
ances in the history of football. The
fleet half back took the first k-oif
and ran 80 wards for Il touchdown. In
the first quarter he made three more
touchdowns, running 65, 80 and 10
yards respectively for the scores.
Coach Zuppke then took him out. He
returned to the game later to heave
several successful passes and scores
a fifth touchdown in the last half. He
ran with the ball 81 times and ncttcd
5G2 yards. Michigan scored coucn
downs in the second and final per-
iods.
An innovation in football was the
wearing of socks by Illinois players,
exposing bare shins.

Billy Evans Says

Baseball fans will always regret
the fact that Brooklyn failed to win
the National League pennant of 1924.
Victory by Brooklyn would have
offered the greatest pitching attrac-
ton in the history of the series.
Walter Johnson versus .Dazzy
Vance would undoubtedly have been
the pitching selections for the open
ing game.
What treat that would have
been. The veteran speed-ball king
of the American League pitted again
st the National League ace.
In some quarters the question has
been raised as t. whether it would
have been good judgment to send
Vance against Johnson had Brooklyn
and Washington been the winners.
Perhaps not--but the desire to win
the all-important first game would
have found both managers depend
ing on their one best bet.
Very often the world series games
are drab because both teams insist
on playing safctyfirst ball. In u
short series it usually isn't wise to
take chances. Get Il run is the sys-
TEN generally adopted. Johnson
versus Vance, however, would have
been real dessert.
1t is a rare occurrence to have two
outstanding stars of the Johnson
Vance type in big series, pitchers
who have gained success through the
same medium, a dazzling fast ball.
For that reason Brooklyn fans in
| particular, baseball fans in general,
will regret the fact that Brooklyn
just fell short of landing the Nation.

Vance, enjoying the greatest year
