Editorial Comment
Recreation, Heat and Daylight Saving
Chicago Tribunc)

Director of Recreation Wheeler estimates that
over 100000 were at play in some form in the
parks, Fairgrounds, beaches, golf courses and for
est at eight o'clock of either Of the recent
hot days This does not include the crowds that
rested in the parks or watched the games, much less
the legion whose recreation is motoring.
City people arc learning how to enjoy out-of-
doors. They are learning also that heat prudcntly
dealt WITH need be no deterrent Of sport. The Brit
sh who keep IN better condition in the tropics than
any other white race. arc dcvotces of sport there
as anywhere else. Ask American army man
how he keeps fit in the canal zone heat, and he
will say by not neglecting exercise" Baseball and
tennis have always been played through the hot
spells. Condition is essential for amateur as well
as professional sportsmcn and also prudence in ex-
ertion. With these sport is valuable in hot
weather AS in COOL If healthy people suffer greatly
from heat, it is mental error not bodily afflic-
ton. Recreation is the true cure.
But what VIC started to say is that when the next
attack tho daylight saving ordinance is made, let
the hundreds of thousands Of Chicagoans who have
had chance at recreation because the hand OF the
clock put forward an hour rise to its defense
We have been told that daylight saving does not
give the city bedroom chance to cool off before
bedtime and that is fair enough point to make
But if We set off against that objection and every
other We have heard from city folks, the e4od that
| comes to the people who will our multiplying
facilities for open air recreation, daylight saving
will never be repealed.
The recreation director estimates that 29515O hours
Of recreation day are gained by the people Of Chi
cago by daylight saving The evening test is i'm
prcssive. 1t is estimated that 32l50 people an
recreating in Lincoln park alone ct p. M and a
that hour on hot days 100000 on the city besches
| The city Fairgrounds average $4,000 at that hour
The other parks, golf courses, and preserves within
the saving bring the total up to 295,150.
i The daylight saving ordinance may be attacked
The attack will be easily defeated If the sum 0
health and happiness which the daylight savin
plan produces is given consideration.

It's Fast Company

Jack Delaney who recently the light heavy
weight championship from Paul Berlenbach prob.
ably already knows that he's in fast company. The
activities Of the lghtheavy division in the last few
years have completely cutshadowed the doings Of
the heavyweights and established name for fight
ing that Delaney must hump to keep up.
Berlenbach, as the titleholder, fought anyone who
looked sideways at him, and we hope Delaney will
do the same. Pugilists are given to the world for
that purpose. There was day when heavyweights
fought ALSO and that hasn't been 1000 years ago
either
The ringsiders want fights, and lately the heavy
weight division has come to mean but enc thing
'heavy gate" or no fight. The heavies have them
selves to blame for the shift in popularity to light
heavies.
Pretty soon, except for press reports about sign
ing Of terms, arguing about shares, being pinche'
sor speeding and having ones nose modelled ate
the vogue Of Apollo, we'll have forgotten that there
ever was heavyweight hoxing division.

took office, Pershing became chief
of staff and stood side by side with

It was during this controversy
with Congress that Secretary
Weeks first revealed the policy of

mel, were needed for the national
protection, although he accepted the
Congressional edict in good grace
and had to again reorganize the
Army, this time to fit the $4,000
strength.
Nor did he desist in his open way
of getting his opinion of congress
before the country at large. On one
occasion, in 1922, he delivered an adj
dress in Cleveland, and roundly de-
nounced congress. stating, among
other things, his belief that 1t was
| "at it's lowest ebb Of efficiency"
The utterance was that Of a cabinet
office and former member of the
senate and the house, and, as such,
! it brought sharp works of retaliation
upon him. 1t was made, however, in
| strict keeping with his bold and free
manner of speaking and actipg-that
| of a man possessing conviction and
| courage.
The strictest sort of application to
! affairs of the War department and
| the long hours he labored there left
| their mark on Mr.. Weeks. He re-
| luctantly gave up golf and all other
! form of out-doo life, which re-
! quired more time than he had to
| spare. twas not long then until he
was ordered by the doctor to shorten
| his office hours and be more consid-
crate of his health.
About this time. Americas In
, known Soldier was brought from
| France for interment at the Airing
ton, Virginia, National Cemetery.
For this hero, Secretary Weeks
| countered the physicians advice and
| insisted upon walking as one of the
mourners from the Capitol to the
Virginia burial grounds, four mile
march which tested the physical en-
duranca of men of sounder strength
than his 81 years had left him.
He afterwards said he was glad
he had made the long march, al
though he was afraid more than
once after he started that he would
not arrive at Arlington ION his feet"
He paid heavy penalty for what the
doctors called this 'indiscretion"
Rumors were circula ted more than
once during the year following the
burial of the Unknown that Secre-
| tary Weeks was a sick man" and
would resign on account of health
Few knew however, that his suffer-
ings resulted from the march to Ark
ington and his determination to pay
his own tribute to Americas In
| known Warrior from France.

the arms Of q nurse at the edge of
the crowd. The child welcomed her

Mayor Sims asserted that he had
never known the city to accord a
more hearty welcome to anyone.
Bobby's fame, he said, was "aug-

Through it all, Jones slouched IN

balcony and said: ct is wonderful
to be home again." Then he bowed
and sat down.
