BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, January 23.-Re-
cuperating from a cold, Connie Mack,
veteran manager of the Philadelphia
Athletics, has left for the South to do
his own preliminary training for the
coming base ball season.
Mack is going direct to Mount Ply
mouth. Fla, where he will play golf for
three weeks before moving on to Fort
Myers to watch Thomas Edison grow
rubber trees and wait for the members
OF the Athletics to arrive for training.
The pitchers and catchers, 20 in all,
will report on February 81, Mack said,
and will have good workouts before the
other players arrive a week later.
Base ball fans are in for q big sur
prise this season." said Mack. Most of
the clubs have been strengthened and
that is an advantage in our favor.
Naturally, II the other teams man.
age to take more games from the
Yankees the New Workers won't have
the same big advantage as in the past,
and that is why think the Athletics
have better chance than last year."

Since making my home in New York
have discovered that some of the
best drivers in the country are to be
found there. Among them are Maurice

man on the tee than Phil Finlay, the
Harvard boy, who was a member of the
Shinnecock Hills Country Club. He
can poke golf ball greater distances
than any one I know. Next to him
would name Bobby Jones. Bob is
Straighter, on an average, but even
he can't keep up with Finlay when
that boy lets go with everything he has
Phil made the greatest drive I ever
in the last national amateur cham
pionship at Brae Burn. On hole 535
yards long he carried over the green
with drive and spoon. His tee
! shot was a good deal more than 300
yards, and straight as string, 1t was
| a wonder, and the spoon shot was
| pretty hefty, too, clearing the remain

facts must be remembered as the basis
of a drive, but the matter of the open

will be decided by the player himself.
Because I use a slightly open stance
is no indication you should.
The drive is one of the great shots
of golf. You'll get few keener thrills
from golf than a long, straight drive

The TIMES goes on and says, If the crying need for abler and more unfettered Judges could be met, it would go far to still some of the con- plaints about the administration of justice in this country. * high minded industrious and public spirited Judge is indeed one of the con- munity's most important assets. But if the com munity does not bestir itself to secure that sort of Judge it will continue to suffer from the oth- kind.
 Eternal vigilence is the price of liberty" Many citizens are not interested in this subject until for the first time in their lives they brought face to face with the power of the court when they realize the difference between fair judge and one seeking vengeance for some fancied wrong.
 Very often new judge begins his term of of flee by making public declaration that "now have been made judge, will be fair, impartial, weighing in the scales of justice with even and unbiased hand" But after that he makes his own record for all time whether he is Daniel come to judgment" another Jeffereys court.

OUR MOST IMPORTANT ASSET

Charles Evans Hughes used this phrase in a recent address in New York City when speaking about the value of "a good judge" to the munity. The occasion the appointment of three federal judges under law and the general knowledge that the men who were re- commended by the politicians" did not measure up to the highest tests. This is because what MT. Hughes put aside entirely out of place, name ly, ''the solicitations and intrigues of politics." have had too much to do with such candidates
 "Character, learning, experience and tact the qualifications for the bench. The best guar antee of fitness is sound professional reputation. The prestige of the bench is largely dependent on the distinction of those who appointed to it. I think it is mistake to suppose that highly petent lawyers cannot be obtained for these places"
 It seems that in New York elsewhere many applicants have no thought as to their fitness for the high honor except that they get the job. The pull" that is the thing
 The New York Times discusses this very Ques- ton and points out the responsibilities of the Bar Associations -"What the various bar associa- tons doing about raising the standards of our judiciary. Chicago lawyers have acted with in telligence vigor and large degree of success in securing better judges. New York lawyers have been more timid and feeble x x There should be 8 more active inquiry into personalities and the politicians behind them. Urgent representations should be made at Washington, so that these ju- purely political basis, and behind closed doors, ships"

He raves and he curses and women alike. He first puts handcuffs on unresisting men and then he has clubbed them without mercy. He is fre- quenter of bawdy houses himself.

 The bull escaped while it was be- ing taken to it's pen, preparatory to bull fight. He raced through the streets, with the populace scattering in every direction. Finding a door open he entered the house of Vim cente 'Porta.
 Sonora De Porta was in the kitch- en busy with her work when the bull appeared in the room, knocking her down. He found his way to a rear door and entered the stable where three horses were eating. He buttcd the horses and returned 10 the street searching for more victims, after having made complete search

PORTABLE SCHOOL PROGRAM RAPED
Mayor Condemns Policy al
 Meeting Of Finance Board
will attend.

Members of the board of finance and taxation nodded agreement and Chairman E. r. Hall was outspoken last night when Mayor Paonessd ended criticism of the school com- mittee's program on the use of portable schools by declaring he would want no child of his edu- cated in one and asked the finance commissioners if they were not of like mind.
 The mayor, a militant opponent of the use of portable buildings as educational centers, referred to these structures as hat boxes in the summer and ice boxes in the win ter"
 After other matters before the board had been disposed of, the mayor inquired whether any mem bers of the board had been ap- preached regarding appropriations for elementary schools. and when he was informed that none had he said:
 we are all interested in the proper education of children. I be- lieve a mistake was made by erect ing the Senior High school addi- tion, but let's forget about that. The school committee is erecting portable schools at the Stanley school site, and I understand more will be placed at the Franklin school site. These portablos were pur- chased during the war when We needed all our man power but We haven't gotten back to war times. If elementary schools are needed, the school board should come here and ask for money, but the port able buildings shouldn't be used. Had the board asked for the money and been denied it. there might have been some reason for using these hot boxes in the summer and ice boxes in the winter but such is not the case. I wouldn't want any child of mine educated in one would you?'
 Chairman Hall agreed he would not, and other members bowed ac- quiesencc.
 Knocking down the portablcs al the Monroe school and transportinp them to the Stanley school and erecting them involves an expense of about $1,00O a room, it was said.
 Since there was no request fol an appropriation, discussion stop. | ped at this point.
