Mauna Loa Bursts Forth,
Spraying Lava and Caus-

HILO. Hawaii April 1O.-The vol.
cano Mauna Loa began erupting early
today. The flow of lava appears to be
concentrated three miles southwest of
the summit. terminating in one big
fountain from which lava is shooting
high in the air.
The outbreak began at 3 am. Prof
Thomas A. Jaggar. jr., in charge of
the Hawaiian volcano observatory,
described il as casting a weird, un-
canny glow over the countryside. with

crest of the mountain in a great cres-

Preceding the eruption, several
earthquakes rocked the island of
Hawaii, with tidal waves on it's East
ern side.
Prof. Jaggar estimated that the
point of eruption was l2,0 900 feet above
sea level. The summit of Mauna Loa
is 1865 feet above.
Jaggar said he would not be sur
prised if kilauea. largest active vol
cano in the world, began erupting.

Mauna Loa and also on the Island
of Hawaii. For three years Mauna
Loa has given signs of coming to
life. Jaggar said
The lava flow apparently broke out
in several places. including the vicin-

Curly pitches for the Washington

Tim Ogden is the third baseman

They come big in the Ogden

The ogden family is a close

When Jack finished his college

TODAY,s SPOR TORLAL
BY KIRK MILLER

There has been no end Of dis
cussion within the past five
years as to the comparative
popularity of baseball and golf
the number Of people that each
game attracts, and whether Or
not the Scottish pastirne has
made inroads on the national
pastime or whether the latter
has increased in drawing power
in proportion to the c0ntagion
Of golf.
You will find folks Of all
shades of convictions about this
controversy and indeed we
doubt il there is any conclusive
course by which the real truth
might be brought out. Further
more, we do not propose to
here settle the argument for or
against either form of recrea-
ton.
Red hot baseball fans will
tell you you are cuckoo when
you talk about golf outdrawing
baseball in point Of interest.
On the other hand, incurable
golf addicts will look at you
pityingly if you dare concede
that the combined ball parks Of
the country yesterday, Sunday,
outdrew the combined country
club and municipal links.
The answer is that there is
no answer. The questions do
not mix. Baseball is not q
solvent for goIf, nor vice versa,
because one game is a game for
the spectator, and the other Is q
magnet for participants. Each
draws its own quota Of interest
and indeed in the proponents
Of one will be found the advo-
Gates of the other.
However, this discussion was
not prompted by. any review of
baseball audiences nor golf two
somes nor foursomeS. The
writer does not expect to live
to see the day when either Of
these sports will kill off the
other.
What brought the topic to
our mind is the prevalence of
interest in horse racing, a game
that undoubtedly does bid
strongly for many Of the dol
lars that might otherwise be
spent at bali parks.
We believe that baseball will
have to hustle in order to hold
its own against the sport of
kings, which is at present being
conducted over five courses either
within or very near the borders
of the United Estates.
Races like the Preakness ard
the Derby with their rich purses
and the coming 100000 Ameri-
can Derby at Chicago, do much
to focus the attention on the
turf. People cannot turn their
eyes away from such sporting
propositions where tens of thou
sands OF dollars are won within
the space of two minutes.
The race tracks have found
they can attract the cream of
patronage by making their races
valuable to horsemen and there
fore a magnet to the race going
public.
Furthermore, racing was never
conducted so legitimately and
antiseptically as it is at the
present. The cleansing which
baseball underwent several years
back following the Black Sox
scandal has been repeated in q
mild way at many of the race
tracks; notably Kentucky and
New York within the past few
fortnights.
The nearby State of Mary
land handles its tracks in man
ner that is above reproach. It
is bidding for, winning and sus-
tanning interest of inunAarahIa
