Cubs; Dodgers De-
feat BUGS 8 to 5

Beset in the hostile haunts Of the
ferocious Cubs. John McGraw's New

tional league leadership to the Gin
cinnati Reds.
Jack Hendricks crew moved up to
the head OF the class yesterday by
defeating the hapless Phillies, IL to
4, while the Giants were losing their
second game in a row to the Chicago
Cubs, 6 to 5.
The Reds gained their victory by
the simple expedient of making II
hits off three Phil pitchers. Carl
Mays pitched we'll after the first in

times. Critz was credited with
three Of the Reds five stolen bases.
1t was the Pills ninth straight de-
feat.

sent the Giants down to defeat at
Wrigley Field in a wild game that
marked the Cubs eighth straight
victory. Bunched hits and two err
rors by Johnny Butler gave the
Giants five runs in the third but
Blake relieved Bush and stopped the
McGrawmen in their tracks there
after, tanning seven. The Cubs
soon overcame the invaders lead
and Blake was credited with his
fourth straight win of the year.
At Brooklyn, the Dodgers broke a
five-game losing streak by beating
the Pittsburgh Pirates, s to 5. Bur-
leigh Grimes went the route for the
losers despite the fact that he walk
ed six, made a balk, a fielding error
and allowed IL hits.
The Boston Braves ended the
Cardinals six-game winning streak
with a 6 TO 5 verdict at St. Louis.
Richbourg's homer and a double ac-
counted four Boston runs.
George Uhle turned in a one-hit
pitching classic at Cleveland as the
Indians downed the Philadelphia
Athletics for the second day in a
row, 2 to D.. Only % men faced the
veteran Cleveland twirler.
Four singles, a base on balls and
a sacrifice fly gave the New York
Yankees four runs in the first in
ming and the champions coasted on
to win from Detroit, z to 2. PEN
mock gave the Tigers seven hits, one
of them a homer b. Harry Rice in
the sixth. Koenig got four hits and

VALLEY GAMES
FLOODED away
Rain Soaked Grounds
Bring Postpone
rnent Of Games

Saturday nights heavy down-pour,
in addition to doing a world of ma
terial good, robbed Brownsville's
baseball fans of their Sunday sport,
when the scheduled contest between
the Weslaco and Brownsville entries
in the Amateur Legion league, was
washed out.
The battle was due TO have been
staged at the Victoria Heights dia-
mond, which turned out TO be a
quagmire of mud in the spots that
were not miniature lakes at game
time.
Weslaco, judging by the rain in
her own neighborhood, did not take
the trouble to come down for the
contest, but phoned instead, officials
Of the local ball club say.
All other battles scheduled in the
loop during the day also were rained
out, and the double-header season is
on for fair in this section.
The occasion marks the first since
the season opened that a single game
has had to be postponed on account
Of weather conditions.
All contests probably will be played
as parts Of double-headers later in
the season, according TO league Off
cials.

1890 BY beating Nurmi, then only
10 years old, in the 5,000-meter race
at Antwerp and handing Paavo his
only Olympic setback. Nurmi got
revenge on Guillemot in the 10000
meter race. In 1924, Paavo broke
the Olympic record in the 5000 but
stayed out Of the lO.000-meter event,
which went to Willie Ritola in rec
ord-smashing fashion.
Second place is the best an Ameri-
can has ever gained in either OF
these races. Lewis Tewanima, the
Indian, was runner-up to Koleh-
mainen in the 10,0Q0-meter race in
1912. In the 5000 meters the same
year George Bonhag was fourth and
Tel Berna fifth. Since then the
only American point winner in either
event was Johnny Romig, the former
Penn State runner, who was fourth
to Nurmi in the 5000 four years
ago. Not a single Yankee placed in
either race in 1920.
The outlook is brighter but not
sensational this year. Lermond, a
rugged youngster, should give a
good account of himself ct 5000 me-
tiers. In the longer race, his Bos-
ton c~lub-mate, Robert Dalrymple
is nominated as our best bet by
Jack Ryder. his coach. Joie Ray has
his heart set now in doing the mara
thon but if his feet cannot stand
that route Joie may turn to either
the 5000 or 10000 with a good
chance Of doing something. Among
the college men, Bill Cox OF Penn
State and Dave Abbott Of Illinois,
are good prospects at 5000 meters

The dawn Of the air age presents interesting posi-
bties in connection with the arrival of the muchpre

duction is greater than before and students Of
the automobile industry profess to indication
Of the approach Of the saturation point Some time,
however, it will be reached sooner, possibly, than is
anticipated the airplane sweeps to position Of
major Importance in the transportation field
The important automobile manufacturers of the
United States will be ready for that day. with their
plants ready for the production Of aircraft and motors
Even the aeronautcal industry is awaiting Of
fcia confirmation Of recent reports that the General
Motors Corporation is contemplating the manufacture
Of airplane motors
Immediately after Lndbergh completed his flight
to Paris plane building took spurt and it became
apparent that airplane manufacturers severely
handicapped by their inability to obtain motors. Since
then the capacity of existing motor building plants has
been increased and motors have been developed and
placed on the market.
Today, the situation is much better than it was but
there still exists genuine demand for lowpriced thor.
oughy reliable aviation power plants. General Motors
should be in position to fill this need better than any
Other automobile company. Packard, Ford, Auburn
and Continental in the field and several other COM
panies building airplane motors exclusively, ant
still the demand is greater than the production.

Is there anybody with knowledge of the facts, who
honestly believes young girls of today are less inte
gent and less deserving of respect than the girls
of twenty forty or sixty years ago? Does the pro-
fessor, who publicly said the present generation of
young women is beautiful to look at" provided
attempt made talk to its representative members,
know or only think he knows whereof he speaks?
Does he really believe the great Of alert young
girls who flock each morning to the Offices stores
and factories inferior in mentality and knowledge
to those Of preceding generations?
Is it concdental that the present generation places
its value much higher than that of past genera
tions and that the older generations always speak of
the good old times" and find little worthy of
mendation and approval in the younger generation?
More likely it is of looking through different
glasses. Old folks always remember the good things
of the past and only the evil of the present. and
the young things up by dragging out the family
skeleton of the past and taking notice of only the good
achievements of it's own times
No doubt the shiny-nosed, demure, timid and shyly
modest madens of yesterday would be intoerabe

THE HORRIBLE EXAMPLE

November 18th will be the tenth anniversary Of the
signing Of the Armistce.

harder Today all the world is trying hard to keep
out of fight. Ten years ago the world, frantic with
JOY, convinced had witnessed the last There
have been several little SINCE and rumors of war
float in and out with great frequency before 1914
The "war to end war" failed Of its purpose, but it
will keep alive this generations passion for perma-
nent world peace. Those who remember the hor-
and suffering Of the World will live out their
lives on the side Of peace by arbitration.
In pre- volstead days the most powerful influence

Armistice Day should continue to be observed for
two reasons: On this day let the nation remember

IN NEW YORK

New York. Oct. 2O.-The Dutch
street gem market remains, year on
year, Manhattan's most exciting out
door sport.

unusual sights in the strange col
lection framed upon this island. And
thank heaven, the tourists buses

Dutch street is a long way from

And. il you come upon it in those
hours when diamond trading has
ceased to be a sidewalk diversion,
you'd probably fail to notice it. For
Dutch street is what most towns
would call an alley. Only history
dignifies it with working title. It's
a lane left over from the early days
and lost in the weller of downtown
streets.
Yet on the curbstones Of this alley
millions in sparkling jewels change
hands annually. If, at the moment,
the market in brilliants is bit bear
ish, this is due to the gradual move
ment of the gem trade into the more
fashionable shopping belts.
Here, on at least five days Of the
week, gathers curious group Of
traders. Their wares. as ! have
said, are diamonds. Those who form
this crowd are well known to one
another. They have dealt thus for
years on end. Its operation is based,
oddly enough on a mutual confidence
among its members. There is no
fear here Of sharpers or crooks or
fakes. They might appear once
but never again. For, in spite Of
Manhattar's reputation for SHARP
dealing, the men Of the diamond
mart give little heed to the POSSIBLE
ity Of being clipped"
Their trading takes place on the
open sidewalk. Crowds brush by
a few sometimes stop for moment
to watch the proceedings, but thou,

and great furore arose as every
one demanded to know just what
kind Of an agreement England had
made.
Perhaps no more sensational
major international incident has
occurred since the Versailles treaty.
The United States is sore. Italy is
sore. Germany is sore. Japan is
sore. And so, apparently, is most
Of the British press. The British
government has also let itself in for
the possibility of an election defeat
and the likelihood that our Congress
will put through q big navy bill at
its next session.
II is almost impossible to believe
that Chamberlain and Foreign Min
lister BRAND of France thought we
would be willing to come to new
conference after it had already been
arranged to deprive us Of our trous-
ers. Ifsthey did they must have had
q rude shock.
Everyone, in fact, must have been
shocked, especially Secretary Of
State Kellogg. to whom the news
or large part Of twas broken
just as he had triumphantly signed
the anti-war treaty in Paris. KEEL
logg deliberately refused to visit
London on account Of the agreement.
Meanwhile the State Department
and Navy Department at home were
equally excited. Admiral Hughes
raced out to Wisconsin to tell ,Presi.
dent Coolidge all about it and then
even Coolidge became excited. The
president has been mad ever since
Just how mad he has been was in
dicated by the forceful tone Of the
note in which the United States re.
jected the Franco British deal as q
basis for discussion Of further nava
limitation.
Now it appears that the British
government, rather than the Unitet
States, is going to be the goat. W.
won't have anything to do with thu
agreement. France is tickled t.
death, believing that the entente ant
her submarines and military plan:
will be left undisturbed.
But whereas the Coolidge-kellogt
attitude has proved rs popular a
any move in our foreign policy to
many years and whereas the Frencl
press and public are enthusiastic
