Constructive Program

After no end Of talking about the agricultural
-nrob,en. without arriving anywhere, it remains for
tbe Chamber Of Commerce Of the United States to
come across with really constructive program,
which it promptly proceeds to put into effect
Z: Oct and 2 meeting is to be held at Salt Lake
City, under the joint auspices Of the local ana the
United States Chambers of Commerce. to consider
the agricultural question in the states Of Arizona.

: Later, the idea is to have similar meetings. in
scluding other groups of states.

the dry farmer, the sheep grower, the cattemar.
the truck farmer the rancher the dairyman farmers
-who farm garden patches, farmers who farm by the
thousands of acres, farmers in the outskirts Of big
towns farmers remote from railruads--no more

sets them all down farmers and tries to legisate

: Naturally it can't be done Naturally also, they
don't pull together. Propositions that the wheat
raiser is enthusiastic leave the cotton planter

: "For several years now, comments the United
States Chamber Of Commerce, agriculture has beer,

aspects. This is perfectly proper but in endeavor

Heresy From an Unexpected Source

Certain near Minneapolitan II the wife of a

remarks about grand opera. Ordinarily a person
who speaks in this vein is promptly put down as a

opera. "Why do you bother the poor people with

The business mems conference, called

SANDLOTTERS'
SALT AND
PEPPER
By r. D. THOMAS

The average young ball team
bends its ingenuity to meet the
qualifications of the youngest class
possible for 1t when entering cham
pionship competition.
Witness q notable exception. Bill
Sanderson, boss OF the Auth seniors.
who have just won the champion
ship Of the Capital City Baseball
Association, has entered his team
in the UNLIMITED division Of the
MISUNDERSTANDING series, also
conducted by the Capital City body.
This means that SandersOn win
match his youngsters, all within
the senior age limit, against the
strongest sandlOt clubs I'm this Sec
tor Of the land. And, according
to SandersOn, they expect to be
among the leaders.
sanderson's kids have been win
ners ever since he organized them
as midgetE. They won a couple Of
city championships as the Southend
Midgets and the junior title as
southend Juniors. Then they be-
came the Auth seniors. to win again
In another class. Now for a shot at
the big title.
The idea Of trying for the un.
limited class title occurred to
SanderSOn when his infant gang
the other day achieved . notable
victory over Lefty Mcintyre, the
City's leading sandlOt southpaw.
Lefty, pitching for Center Market,
was knocked from the hill by the
Aufhs.
Speaking Of Lefty, by the way,
there are sandlot observers who be-
lieve that this young fellow could
be made iAto a highly serviccaf lie
finger by some minor league club.
Mcintyre has been a sandlot star
ever since he was q small boy. and
each year has brought marked i'm
provement. He's O natural pitcher,
with whom experience and condi-
tioning might work wonders.
