THE PRESIDENTS VETO

IT HE more studies President Coolidge's
message vetoing the McNary-Haugen
bill, the more convincing must he be-
come of the soundness the Presidents views and
of the unflinching sincerity of his motives in
not permitting the bill to become law. With
directness and conciseness almost uncanny Mr..
Coolidge detects and points out the unwSdom
of the economic provisions and discloses how
the bill, if it became law would work irrepar-
able injury to the farmers and to the Ameri-
can people in general.
1t is not sufficient answer to Mr.. Cooldge's
message to claim that because the McNary-
Haugen bill was passed by both houses of con-
gress by substantial majorites, he should have
permitted the bill to become q law The trainers
OF the Constitution with almost infinite wisdom
foresaw occasions when the action of congress
might be swayed by exterior and Interior motives,
and when need might arise for strong restrain
ing influence. Such considerations unquestion-
ably influenced the men who drafted the Con-
stitution, whereby the President is empowered to
veto acts OF congress, and whereby congress in
turn is prohibited from repassing bill over the
Presidents veto except by a vote of two-thirds
OF the membership of both. houses.
1t is not sufficient answer to contend that
Mr.. Coolidge ought not to have taken into con-
sideration the question of the constitutionalty of
the bill and that he should have left this ques-
ton to the courts. Such contention is merely
advocating the cheapest kind of political subter-
fuge. 1t is the Presidents sworn duty to en-
force and UNFOLD the constitution, and when con-
gress passes law which in his judgment is
clearly and unquestionably unconstitutional, duty
demands he should exercise his explicit power Of
veto.
1t is not sufficient answer to hold that Mr..
Coolidges attitude in vetoing the bill shows that
he is unfriendly to agriculture, when every one
OF his objections remain unanswered and UNI
refuted. Mr.. Coolidge states his reasons for We
toing the bill clearly and forcefully, and
mere general denial of his objections and abuse
Of Mr.. Coolidge offer no proof that his reasons

Badgers Play Chicago
for Homecoming Fray

Madison, Wis, May 10.-The Chi
cago- Wisconsin football game,
scheduled for November 10, at Camp
Randall stadium here, has been
designated as the annual homecom-
ing by action Of the Wisconsin ath-
letic council. At the same time
November "a, the date Of the
Badger Mime sofa game, was desig-
mated as Dads day.
This will provide the out of town
spectators with two headlin, attrac-
tions in additi~ to the Notre Dame
and Alabama games, which are
scheduled far earlier in the sea-
son.
The board Of regents, following a
delay in the new field house project,
approved a plan which calls for the
immediate construction of 1000 con-
crete seats in Camp Randall sta
dunn and an improvement of locker
room facilities.
Thirty thousand dollars will be
spent in filling in the present
west stands with concrete, improv-
ing the temporary wooden bleach
ers in the upper sections, and the
constructing of new storerooms,
showers, and other accommodations
for varsity teams under the east
stands.

Bismarck Plays mandan
IN First Game Of Season
Baseball Clubs of Rival Cities
Will Clash in Homecoming
Game on Sunday, May 20, in
Local Park-Athletic Prece.
dent Is Reversed by Sched-
uled Battle

Reversing the usual order of ath-
letic rivalry between Bismarck and
Mandan, the baseball teams of the
Twin Cities Of the Missouri will
clash in the first home game of the
season here on Sunday, May 20.
Officially designated as Home
coming Day, Neil Churchill, man.
ager of the Bismarck club, an
nounced today that special cere-
monies will mark the 1928 inaugural
Of Americas national sport in the
Capital City.
It is likely that both Governor
A. e. Sorlie and Mayor A. P. Len
hart will participate in the opening
ceremonies. In addition to the pres
cnce of prominent state and city
officials, music will be furnished by
one of the local bands to add gala
aspect to the greeting that will be
given the rival ball teams.
In selecting the crack team that
Mandan is organizing to play the
first game, Churchill has performed
bit of diamond diplomacy.
Sets New Precedent
For many years past it has been
the custom in football, basketball
and other inter-city sports to save
the first meeting of respective
teams to the latter part OF the sea-
son. In that way a championship
game has been worked up.
While championship games have
been played in first rounds Of var
ious sports and titles have been de-
cided in the opening brackets of
tournaments, it is not likely that
the baseball championship of west
ern North Dakota or even Of the
two cities will be decided on May 20.
Growing of baseball champion
must wait until the final games Of
the annual baseball tournament is
played sometime in August and then
the title-holder may not be either
Bismarck or Mandan, Churchill said.
"All of the old rivalry will be
there" said Churchill. "Thc old
fight and the color will pervadc the
park. 1t is to be one Of the classics
Of the season."

ITALIANS FURNISH
DAVIS CUP THRILL
Australia Ousted Surprisingly ;
Nine European Teams Pass
First Step

New York, May 10.-(P-Davis
cup tennis teams representing nine
European nations have safely
passed the first step toward victory
in the European zone. One more
reached the second round by de-
fault, Sweden winning from South
Africa; while India, Switzerland,
Czechoslovakia, Portugal and New
Zealand drew first round byes. Ire
land and Holland have not yet
played their first round tie.
One Of the greatest sensations in
Davis cup history was provided by
Italy in defeating Australia, to l..
The Australians, the greatest fac
tors in Davis cup tennis from their
first entrance in 1905 to the sudden
rise of France, took sudden drop
as the Italians scored their first
important Davis cup victory. 1t
was the first time since 1905 that
the men from down under had failed
to reach either the challenge round
or the final, except in 1913 when
they were beaten by the United
States in the first round. Austria
liza has won the cup six times.
The hero of Italy's surprising
victory was Baron Hubert de Nor
! Ergo, who scored two Of his coun-
try's three singles victories and,
with Caslini. won the doubles. The
young Australian star, Pat Craw-
ford, was the only Anzac to win a
match. De Morpurgo's 1-6, Ga, 6-3,
2-6 81 victory over the veteran
Gerald Patterson provided one Of
the biggest tennis thrills ever seen
in Europe.

FROG HUNTERS
BEGIN QUESTS
FOR LEG FIR Us
Fishing for Crackers Along
Missouri River Furnishes
Great Sport

Joining the army of picnickers,
mixers, fishermen and lovers of ma.
ture who have invaded the Missouri
river bottoms the past week, frog
hunters have begun their annual
quest for the green croakers whose
legs make a delicious outdoor meal.
Frogs may be captured in num-
Der of ways. They may be netted
with a fine cloth mesh at the end
of a six-foot pole. They can be shot
with CD caps in % gun or an air
gun. They can be speared or caught
in small traps. In the case Of the
big bullfrogs they can be "fished"
for with long pole, line and fish
hook "baited" with chunk of red
flannel.
The little leopard frog, we'll
named because of its leopardlike
body markings, does not grow as
large as the bullfrog, but it is the
most delicious eating. This species
frequents the grassy spots around
a lake, pond, pool or other small
body of water. In such a location
a net is the most efficient weapon
to use to catch them.
To get the greatest amount Of fun
out of the chase for the weary
hoppers, Fishing" for them is COM
parable to dropping line for a nice
bass. Rig up the old cane pole with
a line, hook and piece of red flan-
mel. The trick is to dangle the red
flannel under the eyes of Mr.. Frog
and then strike when he strikes.
The result is dandy mess of frogs
which will yield a skillet full OF
"brcast of chicken"
Frogs legs are small but oh! so
good. The meat is white and firm
resembling the color of well-fryed
pike steak. They are easily cleaned
and eaten.
Here's the way to cook frogs
legs: After skinning, soak them for
an hour in cold water, to which vine
gar has been added or put in boil
ing vinegar water for two minutes.
Wipe dry, roll in flour. and try
slowly in butter. Salt and pepper
to taste.

AMERICAN LEAGUE INTERSECTI0NAL
Strife IS READY TO START TODAY
Feature Engagements We'd
nesday Find Giants Shutting
Out Pirates s to 0 and
Charlie Root Pitching Cubs
to ? to l Victory Over
Brooklyn in II Innings

The American League was ready
today to join the National in con-
tinuation Of the intersectional war
fare which has been waged on the
two pennant fronts for a week. Rain
and cold yesterday prevented ac-
ton in the American League sector,
where the Yankees and the Indians
are engaged in a hand-to-hand
struggle for the lead, but teams in
the senior circuit cnlivened the west
with their battles.
The feature engagements of the
afternoon saw Virgil Barnes pitch
the Giants to a 6 to 0 victor over
the Pirates in a game where the
lead Of the league was at stake and
found Buzz McWeeney and Charlie
Root locked in a rare pitching duel
in Chicago. The gray-haired Brook
Ign sCuthpaw yielded to the Cubs,
to !, in the twelfth.
Strategy Spelled
After pitching magnificent ball
for eight innings, McWecney skated
on thin ice from the ninth to the
twelfth. A hit meant the ball game
at almost any time in this period,
and McWeeney finally yielded to
Gonzales. Webb opened the twelfth
with q double and advanced on
Hack Wilson's sacrifice fly. Robby
then called for the old army game
and two men were passed to make
a play possible at any base. Con-
zales spoiled this fine strategy with
Texas league single to center.
The victory marked the second
straight for the Cubs over Brooklyn,
and gave Charlie Root his third sue
cess Of the season.
Virgil Barnes gladdened the heart
Of John McGraw by the craft of his
curves against the Pirates. The
Giants, still shy two regulars
through influenza and injuries, pre-
sented patched-up fighting front.
but Barnes did 50 we'll that almost
any sort of backing could have won
for him.
Almost from the start it seemed
to be only question Of how long
it would take the Giants to get a
run from Joe Dawson. As the game
was played they got two in the Sec
ond and two in the fourth off Daw-
son and two more in the eighth off
Young Brame, his relief.
Barnes Does Fine Work
Barnes pitched hitless ball for
five innings, and gave only five
safe drives through the entire game.
The Pirates filled the bases in the
seventh, but pinch hitter for Daw-
son failed to pinch.
The Braves lost their fifth
straight game when Eppa Rixey
emerged on top in a pitching battle
against Genewich. The score was
q to !. Rixey gave way to a sub
stitute runner after inserting a
single into an eighth-inning rally
which Melted Cincinnati three runs
and the ball game.
There was no news in St. Louis
The Cardinals won as they pleased
from the Phils, and they pleased Z
to l. Littlejohn started his first
game of the season for the Cards,
and the net result proves he could
have chosen no finer snot.
