NJ CARTHY IDEAL
CAPTAIN
BY JUNO KINERK

Various and sundry reasons
have been advanced for the phe-
nomenal success Of Georgetown'S
baseball, team this spring. And
all Of them are good ones, too.
Coach Richard Red" Smith
naturally has come in for his
share Of deserved praise. So has
the well,rounded pitching staff of
Poole, Lomax. Noznesky and
White. But not a great deal nor
enough has been related II one
of the prime factors in the
teams success-Capt. Ralph Nc
Carthy.
If any one individual has had
much to do with the string Of vic
tories assembled it is Mac" A
born leader and a fighter to the
last ditch, Mccarthy not only is
proving a source of inspiration to
his mates by his words of en-
couragement but Is doing 1t in
still a more important way-he is
leading the team in hitting, base
stealing and runs scored.
Now any player hitting in
the second hole who "an do
all these things needs little
more be said about him,
His batting average is we'll over
the 400 mark. in fact it is nearer
the 500 average. And once he
gets on the paths, which is about
every other time up, he proves a
thorn in the side of the opposing
catcher. It is nothing unusual
to read in the box ScoreS-Stolen
bases, Mccarthy go.
Daring base running is only an
other of Macs stock-in-trade
values to his team. In the out
field he handles everything COM
ing his way with the ease and
grace Of big Lacquer. Whenever
there are two out and a fly ball
is hit in the general direction of
center field the pitcher just starts
walking for the bench from force
of habit, confident the side is re-
tired, for if Mac can get his hands
on the ball it is as good as caught.
Just like falling in a well.
His all-arOund performance
this season stamps him as q
likely prospect for a tryOut in
the leagues when his career is
ended in June.
Veteran fans have declared it
their belief that while he may not
yet be ripe for big league company,
he certainly is the equal or SUI
perior of Ken Strong, former New
York U. player, who went up for a
trial last year. Right now Mac is
good enough for Glass AA ball,
they believe, and with added ex-
perince may soon make the climb
to the majors.
Too often has Mac" been con-
fused with another famous

the other is his respective field,
and in future years when and If
both achieve greatness. there'n be

SLIP GREATLY

BY BOB THAYER

BY BOB THAYER
PHILADEL PHIA, April 81.
Only two years ago they were
asking:
How about the Yankees?
Who'll stop 'em?"
They, seemed invincible then.
With Miller Higgins at the helm,
the mauling Gothamites had
pounded themselves to baseball's
peak.
When the high-powered COM
bination skidded year ago, the
public said:
"Oh, well, Higgins will get
them back on top. He did it
In 1896"
In the interim, the diminutive
Higgins passed away. And today
the YankeeS-with affable Bob
Shawkey at the helm-are on
the down-grade.
Yesterday the erst while
hOme.run knockers accepted
their fourth 1880 lacing in q
row. They have yet to win

prince of good fellows. lacks Hug

Ter stepped out and uncovered d

pins of the immortal 1928 com
binations, Shawkey seems COM
pletely lost.
In the meantime a deSpised
Yankee enemy-the Philadelphia
Athletics-are looming stronger
and stronger on the baseball
horizon. A cockiness born Of
achievement labels them as the
logical successors to Yankee
greatness.
There's championship
ring to Athletic bats, q blue
ribbon confidence afield and
consistent major pitching
which makes them stand out.
Why this sudden decline Of
Yankee stock? That more than
Athletic greatness is the question
being asked nowadays.
Well, first of all, as was ex-
planned above, there was Hug
gins. He's gone now. But also
there are the rockies. .t
Dusty Cooke, described as
worthy successor to Babe Ruth
last fall, has disappointed mis-
erably. In no respect has he
lived up to his reputation.
At present Cooke is being alter
mated with Sam Byrd in left field:
Byrd is hitting southpaws and
Cooke right handlers. In due
time. it is said, Byrd will be IN
the sun garden to stay.
Then there is the pitching. ,

most consistent pitcher yesterday

longtime mainStays-have ap-
parently shot their bolt. George
Pipgras and Tom Zachary are
once-in-awhiles and Ed Wells an
in-an-outer at best.
And the smuggling. OF course,
there's the $4,000 Ruth. But he
isn't any younger. And faster.
Lazzeri is still a young man,
and figures to hit with the elite,
while Earl Combs and Bill Dickey
can also get in some damaging
socks. But how about Lou Gehrig?
Columbia Lou was no better than
the average in 1929. Always a
poor fielder, he clouted an even
300, and was of little use to his
club.
Bob Meusel is gone and other
spearheads of the ex-curdererS'
row are either playing elsewhere
or else are on the verge of a
fade-out.

and all in the course of two short
years!

THE NEW LEADERS

The convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood is over. Louis Shotridge of Klukwan is the head of the organization, made so almost unanimously. Son of the famous Chief Shot, ridge of the Chilkat Valley, Louis has made himself force among the Thlinget people of South eastern Alaska by virtue of his ovn ability.
 He attended the Sitka Train ing (now Sheldon Jackson) School at Sitka as a boy. In his own words the. only encourage ment he received from his fam lily to continue. his struggle was letters telling him of death in the family nd for him to re- turn home immediately. When in his early twenties, he went to San Francisco where he had charge of Alaska Indian exhibits of large trading company. While in San Francisco he took up vocal study and in the course of time was trouping through out the United States. In Phila- de]phia re entered the Wharton School of Commerce and while there became interested in the ethno7oe'ca department of the University of Pennsylvania and csuecially in the Alaska depart- r~~-o+ T7o was made an assist ant in that department which position he has held for more

He could not be in Alaska during the past year so refused to run for any office. This year he was prevailed upon to do so with the result that he was easily elected.

The Vanishing American
(St. Paul Dispatch)

NJ &uA oN0UN
Much has been heard from time to time about the So
called vanishing American" meaning, of course, the
American Indian. But if figures do not lie, the red men,
both in the United States and Canada, are not only far
from the vanishing point. but are increasing in numbers
year after year.
In Canada. for instance, says a report by the Depart
ment of Indian Affairs Of that country, the Indian popu-
lation has increased more than 5000 in the past five
years. bringing the present total to slightly more than
100000. In the United States, the Bureau of Indian At
fairs estimates that there are approximately 355y 600 In
dans, or an increase of nearly Ill 1000 in the past ten
years.
Since the discovery Of America there has, of course,
been q, marked decrease in the number of full blood In
dians on the North American continent. In 1892 it has
been estimated that there were $4,000 Indians on the
continent. This decrease. spread out through more
than 400 years., no doubt has given rise to the vanish
ing American idea.
While there always have been fluctuations in the In
dian populations of the various states. the total gain has
beer; steady and especially marked within the past quar-
ter Of a century, during which time the increase has been
approximately 1900 annually In the United States.
Health education, Of course, has done much to reduce the
mortality rate among the Indians, but even before these
measures were put into effect by the government the In
dian population was increasing.

Editorial Comment
It's a Small World
/" (Judge)

1Judge)
Six million people are destitute. They are eating elm
leaves, chaff, rubbish. Two million are dead already,
either by starvation or freezing. Two million more are
certain to die before spring. Thousands are too weak
even to commit suicide. Families offer to give their chill
drcn to anyone who will feed them. Entire villages
have disappeared, even the houses having been torn down
for fuel. And there is no present hope. Even if there
were enough food, there is no way to get it to the hungry
millions, for there are no railroads and no highways fit
for motor cars. and the only means of transportation is
gone because all the wagons have been broken up for
fireWood and all the horses have been eaten.
Is this a nightmare or the raving Of a mad irnagina-
ton? No; it is taken almost verbatim out of the cable
dispatches from China, telling ~truthfully what is hap
pening today. How many Americans even read such
news? We are very busy calculating just how good Or

of prosperity, planning to abolish poverty. We are also
