KELLEY MISSES
STAR QUARTER
OUTDOOR spoRT

Although he does not expect his
squad to measure up full strength
until next week, Mike Kelley,
mentor of football at Eastern High
School, Is worried over the pro.
tracted absence OF Everett oxley,
one of his star backs OF last falls
late games.
Oxley, whose home is In Detroit,
was expected to report the fore
part of this week for the daily ses-
sions which Kelley is conducting on
the Eastern field, but hasn't put IN
an appearance yet, and, frankly,
Kelley is worried about him. He
had been counting upon the rugged
little youngster to fill the quarter
back berth this year.
II OxIey fails to come back
Kelley will have to reOrganize
his baclzfield plans and develop
new signal caller. He has
several Iettermen available but
would have to make them over
from halfbacks to quarter.
Capt. Tom Nally. tackle on last
years eleven, hasn't reported yet
for practice either, but Kelley
knows that he will be back. In
fact, he expects him to be on hand
Monday along with several other
players who haven't come out for
the early practice because they
have been working or out of the
city during the summer months.
At present Kelley has a squad OF
nearly 40 players going through the
daily sessions, which consist mainly
of kicking, punting and passing
drills for the backs and charging
and blocking drills for the linemen.

Following the signing Of the former
Providence College collegian yester-
day, President Clark c. Griffith was
warm in his praise OF this latest
acquisition.
A keen Judge Of slab material the
Washington executive had followed
closely the young southpaw's motion
in batting practice until he ID now
satisfied that Coach AL Schact made
a ten strike in uncovering his
prodigy.
"WineappIe has as much stuff
as any left-hander I've seen In
years." Griffith confessed after
looking him over. II look for
him to remain In big league har-
ness and we're certainly going
to give him his chance to make
good.
Don't be surprised II we start
working him as a finishing pitcher
right away and later on Walter may
decide to have him start games. In
other words he looks good enough tC
gamble with and we'd like to get
him into full stride before $780,"
Schacts performance in lining UP
Wineapple for the Griffs was nc
easy one. No less than four other
big league teams were hot on the
collegian's trail, but avoiding these
ivory hunters expertTy, AL steamed
into port with his prize.
The youngster proved himself q
banner all around athlete at Syra
cuse University before transferring
to Providence College a year ago
His exploits there were even more
sensational.
With Syracuse he was a great
| pitcher, a fine basketball man and
regular fullback on the varsity
eleven. Also he was a crack semi
pro baseball man and as such made
quite a name for himself in the New
England section.

Southen Leadership.
(NeW York Times.)

Realization brought to mind by the death of former Senator Underwood of Alabama mpel The Enquirer-Sun of Columbus Ga. to apply the rule of reason to recent romantic address made at Emory University by Ivy Lee of New York. MT. Lee, of distinguished Southern ancestry, followed the inn pulse of most voluntary expatriaes returned to na- tive soil by descanting the purity of the Nordc blood of the South and calling for Southern lead ership in the social and governmental problems of the Nation The editor of The Enquirer-Sun, son of Joel Chandler Harris, takes up the poetic sug- gestion and dismsses it with the sensible reminder that, before important leadership can come from the South it must develop such leaders in Sen- ator Underwood it unanimously rejected before his death
 Underwood refused to destroy the logic
 of Democracy by supporting a sumptuary
 law and rejected the assumption of the 100
 per cent Nordic masked gang that it could control decent courageous representative of the people. He made way for Heflin,
 idol of biogts and masked gangsters And
 while Glass of Virginia has not yet decided
 to quit the political struggle, he is discov- ering that his following has turned to Bishop
 Cannon the Cardinal Richelieu of the new
 political dispensation.
 The pulpit is in politics, thinks MT. Harris and it will require a long pull and strong pull to get it out Meanwhile, such suggestions MT. Lees can be dismissed as rheoric for occasion. Upon the press and the universities of the South depends its hope to develop again such as Underwood and Watterson To this the University or NorIn CaroHna anu tiilory CoHeSe are cOnTlDuJ- ing noticeably, and although MT. Harris does not mention himself, observers from afar know that he is doing his share. He says
 If the press of the South holds stead
 fast, there will gradually develop ctzenry
 which will demand the highest type of lead
 ership And when that demand is strong
 enough, the leaders will appear Then and
 not till then will it be time enough to talk of Southern leadership in social and gov
 ernmental problems of the Nation. l He quotes the Rev Samuel Small as supportinp his point that bigotry and politics in the pulpit are the present political handspring of the South MT Lee may not heed this for rhetoric and poetry are an indispensable part of press agents wares but the thoughtful and the observing know that Nov. G. 1928, proved it.

PINCHOT NOT WANTED.

Fasteners are still urging Clifford Pnchot for ap pointent as Secretary of the Interior in the Hoov CT Cabinet The circumstance that the activities o the Secretary of the Interior nearly all tht West and not the East probably emphasizes tht Eastern Pinchot enthusiasm In the meantime for midable protests against the possibility of MT Pin chots appointment are drifting into Washington from the West If there is one man mentioned fol Cabinet position that above all others is moi wanted in the West it is MT. Pinchot.
 The Seattle Times is conservatively within the facts when it says:
 The States of the West, which afford vr-

 the Interior Department, naturally hope that
 this post will be filled by capable Western

Alaska College Needs Funds.
 Seattle TimeS.)

Steady growth of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines augurs well for both the cul- tural and the material progress of the Territory The most Northerly institution of higher education under the American flag offers the usual subjects of study but emphasizes courses that can best be utilized to develop Alaska resources.
 With constant increase in students the need for additional funds is persistent Appropriations by the Territorial Legislature have been generous-an aggregate of about $50O000-but they have not been sufficient for requirements Federal aid has not been inconsiderable-$50O00 yearly-but yet not large if account be taken of the huge revenue that the Northland pours into the Federal treasury A bill granting $25000 more annually is now before Con- gress and should be passed
 The college, located at Fairbanks was established In 1917. It's enrolment, in excess of 200 is drawn chiefly from the high schools of the Alaskan towns but also comes in part from the States because of the opportunities for practical instruction in mining In conjunction with the college laboratory is man tained by the Bureau of Mines for testing ores and an experimental station has been established bv the Biological Survey for the study of carbon and reindeer.
 The college is worthy of liberal support from inc Federal Government. If accorded adeouate aid inc young institution will be powerful factor in the Territory's advancement

ward and provided the Graf with blended gas
made by mixing West Virginia product with

cylinders to Toxic, where it was mixed with
enough hydrogen to make the specific gravity

at Los Angeles for the hop to Lakehurst.
Ethane derived from natural gas, was the
third brand of fuel supplied and was loaded
aboard the Graf for the completion of the hop

Neqv York Indian Py0blems.'

THE Indian situation which has bobbed up so
often to haraSs the Federal authorities is
not worrying Uncle Sam so far as New York
State, home of the Six Nations, is concerned.
New York, being one of the thirteen original
Colonies, has no land to which the United States
holds title other than that which has been con-
demned or purchased for Federal buildings and
military posts
This left the question of Indian lands entirely
up to the State, and since the founding of the
Nation the State has carried on and met its
obligations through establishing and operation
of schools for the children construction of high
ways and enforcing of health and other regula-
tions without any cost to the Federal Treasury.
All disputes involving lands to which the In
dams have claimed title have been handled and
settled by the State, and the situation has given
no trouble to the Government In Washington at
any time.
Some of the most romantic of the Indian
stories such as "The Deerslayer," 1.-THE Last OF
the Mohicans" and others Of the works of Feni-
more Cooper, were written about the history Of
the Indians Of New York State, and much Of
the upstate territory abounds in Indian names.
