CONCLUSION

We believe in the Hakoah. We are
hoping that their class will overcome
all the handicaps, unnecessarily put in
their path. But we are convinced that
it would have been wiser to give them
more time to acclimate themselves and
get into good physical condition
Secondly, to pick for their first op-
ponents a weaker team so that the
Hakoah would get accustomed to
American playing methods. As it is,
we warn the management to insist on
high class referees so that the team
viii he enabled to give its best
It would be calamity from the
financial point Of view If the Jewish
team would draw-or-Iose its first
game Mt the Polo Grounds. We wish
the Hulioah team success in their gi-
gantic task. If they win they are the
greatest soccer combination ever as
sembled.

mission Of the League Of Nations on
the situation in Syria was published
here last week. together with the COM
mentS Of the French representative and
the report Of Monsieur linden. Swedish

The report Of the Mandates Commits

the lack Of continuity in the French
policy in Syria. It mentions the fact
that during the period Of 1910-192j five
different high commissioners were in
office in Syria, excluding the acting
high commissioners one cause for the
Druze revolt was the heavy.lmnded rule
Of one Of the previous governors. \

who showed n want Of sympathy and
understanding for the population. the
report states.
The report of the Mandates Commits
sion also points out the fact that the
Syrian population suffered cconom-
ically due 10 the circumstance that the
Syrian monetary system was based on
the parity Of the French and Syrian
currences which resulted in two.fold
disadvantage to the Syrian population
and affected the immediate economic
condition Of Syria aud Lebanon ad-
vcrscly
The report notes, however, the an
nounccment of the French that they
will in the future assist the population
Of Syria 10 acquire the capacity for
exercising sovereign and self-governing
powers The report expresses the con-
viction that Henri de Jouvcnel, the
present High Commissioner. shows by
his acts that he adhercs 10 this policy.
The loyal cooperation OF the native
races with the Mandatory power is nee
eSsary for the establishment of peace
and stability, the report states, adding
that the commission regrets the con-
tinuation Of considerable destruction of
life and property in Syria"

A CLASH OF TACTICS

Once the regulation handicap is over

face the real fight They are meeting
an unknown foe, for the first time. An
| All-Star American soccer team is n
worthy foe for any team. When meet
ing the Americans. the IIakoah is also
meeting for the first time American
mentality in mntchplaying and Amcri-
can soccer strategy. Here again there
is vast difference between the two
| systems.
The llakoah plays clean COM
hination play. 1t depends essentially
on speed. head play and previously
worked out passing strategy. The team
has always met aggrcgations with
similar tactics. The tussle has then
been one of team against team play
the best team winning. On the Polo
Grounds ii will be different The
American playing calls for rOughcr
tactics Speed is met by force. Team
play is broken mp by individual inter
ference, and man-cOvering has been de-
vcloped to n high degree.
This danger Hakoah supporters dis
regard They claim that soccer foot
ball as played and developed in Europe
is as superior to American soccer as
an American big league baseball club
would he to an European baseball out
fit, Whatever the handicaps, Hnkoah
will overcome them easily, is the
answer of these enthusiasts.
We, however. disagree and more than
that we fear that this overconfidence
of the Jewish camp might prove dis
astrous TO their team.
American fighting spirit is at Its
highest when meeting an invader. At
such special occasions. the American
athlete suppasscs himself He is-what
is called in sporting language-a
money player" which means he is at
his best when the stakes are the highest.

SCOUTS PLAN TO
COLLECT UP ALL
OLD TIRES HERE

The scouts of Douglas will join with
the scouts from the other districts in
the county in a collection of old tires
to be sold in order to raise money for
the work of scouting in each district.
Due to the high cost of rubber, the
old tire market is high, and If a car
load can be secured, a goodly sum can
be realized. Saturday, April, II, has
been set as old tire day, and the
scouts will call on as many homes as
possible to collect the tires.
A general warehouse has been estab-
lished in Bisbee and all tires will be
taken there for shipment. Each dis
trict will receive their share of the
proceeds to be used as district fund
and will not go to the general coun-
Gil fund. Each troop will strive to
collect the greatest number of tires
and count will be kept and published
at the close of the contest. Troops 8
and of Douglas were organized last
night into teams to cover the entire
city i'm the securing of tires. Any one
having old tires or tubes can notify
Scoutmaster Nichols at the Interna.
tional laundry and he will see that the
scouts call for the tires.

tween Greenland and Spitzbergen.
If there were no obstruction the
tides at Bennett Island. north of the
Siberian coast, would be the same as
at Point Barrow, he said. But the
tides off Bennett Island rise and fall
two and one-ha1s feet, while off
Point Barrow there is a tide of only
O.4 feet. Mr.. Harris held this to be
proof positive that there is some
great obstruction around which the
tides must flow The hours of the
tides show that they follow the
circle Of the Siberian coast around
ITO Alaska, being seven hours earlier
at Bennett Island than Point Bar
row.
Further evidence of land to the
north was furnished, Mr.. Harris point
ed out, by indications that the Beau
fort Sea virtually is closed in to
the north and eastward. Ice does
not drift freely 20 the northward
1t seems to be caught in a pocket,
! and is of remarkable thickness and
age. Northeast winds will drive the
ice to the westward, but there is
little or no movement of the ice
when the wind blows from the west
"These circumstances, so far as
they CO." said Mr.. Harris, tend to
show that the Beaufort Sea is near
ly landlocked in all directions ex-
cepting toward the west
Mr. Harris cited the accounts and
papers of the navy, page 162, volume
AZ, 1854, which describes how the
tides are affected by the wind at
Elsen's Bay, east of Point Barrow
When the wind was from the east
, or northeast there was scarcely any
rise in tide, but with the wind blow
ing gale from the southwest the
tide sometimes rose three and half
feet. The inference Mr.. Harris drew
was that the unknown coast line
was not greatly distant from the
north coast Of Alaska, making a
pocket in which the tides pile up.
Drift wood carried by ice currents
also gave evidence, little drift wood
being found as far east of the mouth
of the Mackenzie river as Corona
ton gulf Virtually none had been
| found near Banks Island.
That the Beaufort sea is an ice
trap is Indicated by the observa-
tions of several explorers. Osborn
! described it as follows:
"Ice of stupendous thickness and
in extensive floes, some seven or
eight miles in extent, was seen. The
surface of it was not flat, such as
we see in Baffin Strait and the ad-
jacent seas, but rugged with accuri1u-
lated snow, frost and thaws of cen
| turies."
Important evidence also was furn-
ished by the drifting of the ill-fated
| Jeanette, sunk in 1880 after it had
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-04-16

1881, who found innumerable fresh
tracks of wild geese on Wrangell
Island but not a sign of the geese
themselves, indicating temporary
stopping place for great number of
migratory birds.
Mr.. Murdock, the naturalist of the
Ray expedition, located near Point
Barrow in the same year and the
following two years, noted the flight
northward of large flocks, Mr.. Mel
son stated.
Donald Cadzow of the Museum of
American Indians, also noted geese
and ducks flying northward from
Alaska. Mr.. Pope cited still other
naturalists and explorers.
Captain. Edward p. Heredeen, years
ago reported that the natives VIM
tering between Harrison and Cam
den Bays Alaska, claimed that in
the clear days of spring they often
could discern land to the northward,
but this is thought to have been
merely large island.
Captain John keenan, of Troy, N.
Y, cruising the Beaufort Sea, north
of the Alaskan shore, in search of
whales in the seventies, offered more
substantial evidence. After taking
several whales the weather became
thick and he stood TO the north.
When the fog lifted land to the
north was seen distinctly by him
and all the members of his crew, but
as he was not on a voyage of dis
covery and no whales were in sight,
he gave the order ito keep away to
the southwark, he said.
In a later day, Peary on his sue
cessful attempt to reach the pole in
1906, reported that he sighted land
to the northwest of Grant Land. Obs
serving from an elevation of about
1000 feet, he could see land at a
great distance, which he named
Crocker Land Further north be-
tween 1atitudes SSH and 81 degrees,
almost at the pole, he found bear
and fox tracks, indicating that land
was not a great distance away.
AS early as 1882, Mr.. Simpson,
ships surgeon of the Plover re-
ported that the Eskimos of Point
Barrow had a tradition that MEM
bers of their tribe once had been
carried northward in southeast gale
to hilly country inhabited by peo-
pie like themselves, and that after
staying long while there they re-
turned one spring.
However, the late R. A. Harris, of
the United States Coast and Geodetic
Survey, offered what the explorers
believe to be far more substantial
information. Mr.. Harris claimed that
virtually all the tidal movement at
the pole depends upon pressure from
the tides of the North Atlantic ocean
entering the s'circumpolar seas be-
