BOSTON BRAVES

Dazzy Vance gave truly
artistic example of how to throw
a ball and Del Bissonette painted
a masterpiece of how to hit one,
Brooklyn taking a twin affair
from the Braves, 8 to 0 and
s to 4 yesterday.
In the shut-out the Dazzling
Maestro allowed only three hits
and famed Dynamite Berger. the
dangerous Boston slugger, three
times. BisSonette won the tea
tilt with a dramatic circuiter in
the eighth with the score tied,
the bags bulging and two out.
Del smote the first ball heaved
by Sherdel and shortly thereafter
the Boston hurler went to take
his bath.
The halted Cubs dropped
the fourth in a row to the
decIasse Cincy Reds, A to 3,
in ten innings. Strip singled,

Sothern singled, O'Doul safetied
and Klein doubled in the ninth

There is still a breath of life

of the Community Center Colored
Senior Baseball League.
"And when An 'sez hit dat

The batter in question hit the
ball, not mere single, but q
homer and as he trotted around
the bases the Black Baron coach
excelled in the fact that his team
had beaten the invincible Red
Sox and his idol had answered
his pleas to hit the ball and hit
it like cannon shot.
More than $500 youngsters en-
thuse daily over these Community
Center Senior League games.
They have become as much a
part, of them as rain and sun
shine is part of the every day
happenings of life.
To go down to the Dunbar
Athletic Field and not find a
game there would be treason
to them, so interesting has
the Community Center'S move
ment become stree the start
of the vacation period last
month.
It is the aim of the Community
Center to give the kiddies OF the
colored section as good time in
the summer months as the many
white boys and girls in the city.
And to give them fun in the way
of a baseball league is excellent,
to say the least.
The youngsters learn organiza-
ton the best way, in that they
are all under competent instruc-
tors, who dole out the idea OF
organization and sportsmanship
to the nth degree.
The baseball league is a result
of, their efforts. Unprecedented
interest has been the case every
day, with no let-up seen for the
remainder of the summer.
The league in question has
six teams, namely: the Red
SOx, Black BarOnS, ElkS, G. p.
O., Pullman, and Willow Tree.
Games are PLAYED every day
in the week, with a champion
named at the end Of the sea-
son.
Two games have already been
played this week between the Elks
and G. P. o. and Black Barons
and Red Sox. Tomorrow the Red
Sox play Pullman, while Friday
the Elks and G. P. o. mines en-
gage.
An interesting schedule has
been arranged for the remainder
of the month, which will keep all
the teams busy, not to mention
the Stubby headed coach of the
Black Barons, who yells his head
off for hits from his teammates.
The schedule follows:

 NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-A small package containing one midget ball player, consigned to Cincinnati may be the cure the Reds need for a very bad headache.
 The headache, it seems, was con- tracted when Ciney bought whole ball club to get one promising rock ie. That rookie fizzled but the club next season produced other prospects that promises to make the original investment pay a good return.
 Chic Cuccinello is the new young ster who is counted upon to make Rockville forget the disappointment over the failure of Jersey Joe Stripp to come up to expectations
 The dope is that the Reds de cided to buy the Columbus fran chise of the American Association two years ago after finding that the price of Stripp alone represent ed a sizeable portion of the value of the whole club.
 Stripp was not big success buI while he was falling down Young Cuccinello, alternating between sec ond and third, was setting the A A. on fire.
 Furthermore Chic finished second among the big humping troupe ir the A. A. last year He whalec the ball at ,358 clip, getting $ doubles, ten triples and 20 homers And that's tolerably good swattine for a fellow who weighs only 15s pounds.
 Chic, natice of Astoria, N. Y signed with Syracuse in the Inter national league in 1926. He wa: farned to Lawrence in the New England loop where he batted .28; and for the same club in 1927 ht batted BIO.
 Going to Danville in the Three-l circuit in 1928 he again hit .31t and late in the summer was bought by Columbus where he batted .39t in IA games.

HIGH, SCHOOL FIVES TO MIX IN DOUGLAS

Although the outcome of the Channel Series was definitely set tied in the Juneau High School gym last Friday night, the local teams will cross the bay to Douglas next Friday for another double header.
 These games will be somewhat in the nature of search for new ma- terial in anticipation of possible intersectional tilts later this sea- son, it is understood No definite games have been lined up as yet. Coach Durham expects to use a different lineup against Douglas in the Nat, and some of his bench warmers will replace the regulars for a large part of the game. While the Douglas girls are gen. erally conceded permanent posses sion of the Sout h ca st Alaska basketball cup offered by Charles Goldstein to the team winning it three consecutive years, they are open to challenge from the best team in the southern end of this district.
 They have won it three years straight on the Channel, and the two years previous to this won the 1 District honors.

PROHIBITION MUST GO. DE-
 .CLARES REPRESENTATIVE J.
 M. BECK OF PENNSYLVANIA

A recent notable address on the inatter of prohibition was that made in the House of Representatives by Representative Jame M. Beck of lPennslvania, as follows, as taken from the Congressional Record:
The Kusko times., 1930-05-10

ture and use of alcoholic beverages should be encouraged and that every citizen was commanded by its terms to drink an alcoholic beverageonce . day. would the fanatical drys, in that event, have the same feeling as to the sanctity of the Constitution and it's infallible wisdom7 Would they not argue, ast he vets now ar- que, that such an amendment goes yond the fair province of govern ment?
 Certainly, the leaders of prohihi- tion showed scant repect for the Con stitution when they wrote this lle- gitimate amendment into that noble instrument and thus destroyed it's perfect symmetry and turned a wise compact of government into . mere police code.
 The preliminary report goes on to say, "We must not forget the many historical examples of large-scale public diregard of laws in ou rpast." The report might have added, in the past of the whole human race, for the political progress ef civilization has always been marked by rev0lts against unjust and oppressive laws, and it is igniticant that, in the long run, the pirit of the individual has been triumphant.
 Edmund Burke nnle said that you could not indict people; he might have gone further and said .yon cam not indict 8 substantial portion of the people. The fact that, after ten years of enforcement, with the ex- penditure of hundreds of millions of dollars and a ghastly sacrifice Of many lives, the prohibition law is still largely unenforced damns it be- yond any defense, and the only rem edy suggested by the gentleman from New Jersey Representative Fortl proves its futility-
 The great argument for prohibition was the injury to the home from e1- cessive drinking, and our colleague well said, -'There is man who does not know, even the moderate drinker, that his use of liquor never added anything to the happiness of his fam fly or the comfort of his .hame," and yet our esteemed callaeague, as a last attempt to enforce the unenforceahle, would make every home a potential brewery or wine press.
 If law have any reasonable justi- fication, or is even within the reason able province Of government, then the American people are .as loyal to it as any other people, hut they re- fuse to believe that a law is either in fallible or omnipotent. They know better. To the American the law is but the reasoned adjustment of hu- man relations and its true sanctity is largely in ifs reasonableness and not in the fiat of tthe state.
 An increasing number of American people who once believed firmly in prohibition, no longer !believe in .k after the practical test of tan .year2 They have seen some disadvantages in the policy. Nne Hhe effect of this

 of the phrase in the report, "We must note the attitude of the pioneer to- ward such things" We are still a race of pioneers. It is true that we have cleared continent of it's onre virgin forests, but the American peo- pie did something far greater than that. They cleared the mind of Amer ica from the obsession of past ages that q state had an unlimited and di- vine power to regulate inall respects the conduct of the individual. A race of individualists does not defy the state. It refuses to believe that the oil of amounting, that once was sup posed to sanctify the head of the monarch and clothe his utterances and acts with infallibility, has now fallen upon the multitudinous tongue of the majority. . ;.
 The preliminary report further em- phasizes it's meaning by a most sig niticant analogy. It says: "The Whig tradition of a right of revolution; !; the lonception fnatural rights, clas- sical in oour polity; the democratic tradition of individual participation in sovereignty"
 What does this ,allusion to the great Whig tradition mean? The word Whig first became associated with the liberal tendencies of the free yeo- men of England before the revolution of 1888. James II, an arbitrary mon- arch, believed that it was his divine right to impose his ideas of morality upon individuals and to enforce his mandates; he sent out his Lord Chief Justice Jeffreys on what was known as the Bloody Assizes." Within four weeks Jetfreys had tried and convict dover twelve hundred men and wo- men, and even children.
 Of course, this is not a record for efficiency, as compared with our gov- ernment in the matter of prohibition, for last year, according to the report four able Attorney General, there were terminated 56,455 criminal prosecutions under the Volstead law. Jetfreys, therefore, only converted free Englishmen into criminals at the rate of three hundred week, whereas our benign government is indicting the American people at the rate of one thousan da week.
 However, the analogy of the Whig tradition may refer to the use of the name in American politics, and this suggests an analogy of profound in- terest and significance. The Whig party, from 1850 to 1860, waas great party. It had such leaders as Henry Clay and Daniel Webster. Its weakness was it's disposition to ad- just questions of profound morality in the spirit of compromise and sur render.
 The result is sinister omen for the Republican party, even in this day of it's great power. The Whig party perished and the Republican party came into belng. say it with regret, hut say it as necessary warning, that the Republican party cannot longer acord to sell its soul to the fanatical drys, and if it does, and thus becomes the party of lroi.ibi- tion, it may have 8 like fate The party did not emancipate the slave to put the white man in the chains of an intolerant policy. The Re- publican party cannot hold forever large number of self-respecting men and women to whom the intolerance of prohibition is a moral affront. It can not forever be half wet and half dry.
