Fred Clarke Has Won
Four Big League
Pennants

Fred Clarke, who acted as
assistant to Manager Bill Nc
Kechnie during most Of the
present season, became manager
OF the Louisville club Of the Ma

tanned his post for nineteen
successive years, the team be-.
ing transferred to Pittsburgh at
the end of the season of 1899.
He led the Pirates to victories in
the National League pennant

He also led them to the pen-'
nant and the world champion
ship in 1909.
Clarke first joined the Louis
vile club in 1894, after start
ing his professional career ut
Hastings, Neb., two years pre-
viously. Three years later he
became manager of the team.

HERE ARE SOME
SERIES MARKS
HEY'REAFTER

The 1925 diamond classic marks
the thirty.third post series and the
twenty-first under the m d g n
world series. rules ais formulated by
the late John T. Brush.
There seems no likelihood OF a
new financial mark being set in
the matter OF receipts or the
establishment Of any new attend
ance records in the current series.
While nearly every classic &C.
counts for some unusual feature, it
is. questionable whether other new
records will result in fielding, bat
ting or pitching. Here are some
OF the marks compiled in past series
that will be hard to better:
Most runs scored in a series-1S,
made by Hubert Collins, Brooklyn
american Association), in nine-game
series with the New York National
League) in 1889.
Most runs batted in series-7
each by Leach, Baker. Murphy.
Roush and Emil MeuseI.
Most runs batted in a game,
by Elmer Smith, Cleveland; 1920.
Most base hits for series-26, by
w. A. Latham, st. Louis (Ameri-
can Association).
Most base hits per INNING, by
Ross Young in seventh inning OF
game October z, 1921.
Highest, batting mark for series
I-.545, by Hank Gowdy, Boston (Na.

Editorial Comment
Senator King Attacks Conservation

Senator King Attacks Conservation
IN. Y. World)
The work of the Senate Commit
tee on Public Lands is plainly going
to furnish a stalking horse for con-
certed Western attacks upon the
Federal policy of forest and mineral
conservation. But it is not likely 10
inspire more unfounded or illogical
assault than Senator Kings on sat
urday.
Mr.. King, pointing to the stoppase
of work on the chief Federal recla-
nation projects, declares this shows
the unfairness of the Eastefh-pu-
reaucrats to the West. He ascribes
it to the Republican desire to keep
UP food prices in order to make the
tariff seem more effective to the Mid
die Western farmer. But there Is
nothing so Machiavellian about the
cessation of reclamation work. 1t
was dictated by certain blunt con-
siderations revealed by a Federal in
uuiry9in 1928. The Reclamation Act
of 1902 had proved largely failure.
The Government had spent $135,000,-
600, or with interest $500, 100000, on
twenty-six projects They were sup
posed to pay for themselves, yet less
than 8 per cent. of the cost had been
returned. Not once had the receipts
from homesteads equaled interest
charges. Only 1,175,000 acres were
under cultivation, and the owners
were unable to pay the Federal
charges, while new homesteaders
could not be found. The agricultural
depression showed that we didn't
need more food, and if we had, recla-
nation was about the most expensive
Of
Mr.. Kings indictment of Washing
ton for it's belated caution in recla-
nation work is not warranted. But
even if it were, it would have no
earthly connection with his demand
that Congress turn all the national
parks, national forests and other
Federal land holdings over to the
States. The West may ask for slight
notifications of our conservation
policy; it must not ask for abandon
ment.
