a A ANY and varied are protests
M about this and that In sandlot
vi circles, especially where teams
in the weekday leagues are
concerned, and not the least of these
is this business of adding players just
prior to the weekday series for the
city title. - +.-
Although no two of the six leagues
have the same rules some sandlot folk
rightfully protest against this sort of
business. Some cite as an example, the
Calvary Drake lineup. Almost over
night the brakes doomed as 'Sure-fire
winners In the Georgetown Church
League and a powerful contender in
the city series. All Of which came about
through some eleventh-hour examining.
While there probably never will be
a compromise made that will please
every one about this matter of taking
on new players, here Is q suggestion
potent with interesting possibilities.
How about a ruling whereby all new
players must joint the last place team?
This would give the tail-enders a
chance to work up and while, Of course,
some teams will descend. they, too, will
have an opportunity to strengthen.
And there's no telling but that a fall
TO last place might prove of benefit in
that some valuable cog might be picked
up.

The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce is now negotiating for a boat for their annual ex- cursion of 200 to Alaska next June
 1t IS rumored they have en- gagged the SS Aleutian to leave Seattle June l4 and go only as far as Seward and then return without visiting the Interior. ac cording to a telegram received by the Seward Chamber of Conn merce from Ernest Walker Saw yer, of the Alaska Railroad. It was read and acted upon at the Tuesday luncheon of the Cham Der. but not to the full extent htat MT. Sawyer desired.
 He suggested that the Seward Chamber wire urgent invitation to Los Angeles definitely to visit Seward and to spend at least 48 hours norht of Seward This an nual excursion is not a pleasure boat ride,' said the message, but was inaugurated and de- veloped by me definitely to ac- quaint the business people of Los Angeles with the Interior of Alaska. Wire your Los Angeles and steamship friends to assist you I have notified Los Angeles that am against any expedi- ton that goes only as far as Seward
 There was much discussion when this communication was read It was finally decided to wire an invitation to the Los An geles Chamber and their friends to come to the Gateway City where the most cordial welcome would be accorded them. It was deemed probable that a train would be available to take any who might wish to go to Anchor ace but it was entirely up to the visitors to decide were whether they would like to spend any time or the Interior, especially as it wa5- not known how long the steamer could be held for them.

Drunken Drivers Should
Be DrastiCally Punished

To the Editor OF The Star
Drunken and reckless automobile
drivers are literally getting by with
murder. They speed over the road with
wild abandon, and deliberately, with e
fearful gesture, disregard human life
The drunken driver often leaves a CORY
trail eolored with innocent blood
themselves, often as not, escaping in
jury with q drunkard's luck.
Sobered by shock, they blubber their
remorse in the hySterieal aftermath
and their t-insufficiently
severe-is forgotten in the lapse Of
time. Their selfish indulgence, in all
probability, has cost the lives of per-
sons whose existence in this world was
far more desirable than their, own.
Is 1t not clear that a man or wom-
an who drives a car while the senses
are dulled by intoxicants is a deadly
menace to society? Should not the
punishment Of such person be dras-
tic2
/, for my part, can find no room in
my makeup for pity of any one who
is so low as TO risk human life while
INDUCING in their lust for strong drink
I have witnessed accidents caused by
just that kind of brute, and it has
left indelible impressions In my mind
as awful results of drunken folly. Give
the drunken driver his Just deserts and
he will be seen less often in the hor-
rtble pictures of bitter tragedies.

Washington to do something about that

right pitiful and somebody ought TO feel
uncomfortable. Bravely surviving the
bitter winds that sweep in Winter and
the pitiless sun that beats down in
Summer, she has been sitting on her
horse for several years now surveying
one of the ugliest hillsides that cor
roding streams Of rain water ever
carved. Her accomplishing and noble
attitude should spur somebody into ac-
ton. While the unwilling of the
Buchanan statue and the parking
around the base of that memorial has
frightened her prospect some, one feels
that the Maid of Orleans will never be
completely satisfied until that hillside
is done away with.

dollars, has been authorized for a cas-

ton of improving the landscape and
completing the park is fine. But the
money with which to do all this is tied
up with other funds now awaiting re-
lease from the conference room on the
District bill at the Capitol.
If the members of the House who
have been holding up the District bill
will forget all about their views on the
lump sum and take an afternoon of to
visit the Buchanan statue, then gaze up
the heights of the clay bank In Meridian
Hill at the forlorn Joan of Are, they
will relent and hasten back and agree
to anything. If the pitiful sight does
not inspire them, nothing will.

This distinction between the lawful

eteers as . measure of their crime ana
menace to society does no credit tn
Chicago. Indeed, it shows a n,seen-
eePtieH Of the duty of the n,unicipal
government in dealing with lawbreak-
ers. The gang murders heretofore have.
1t is true, renewed undesirable peeple
and have cost the community netting
in the way of valuable lives. But these
have been merely evidences, by-prod-
ucts as 1t were, of the terribly COSTLY
crinlinality of the gangs. The victims
we're executed because of jealousies
arising from conflicting CRAFTS. The
lack of gang murders simply meant that
the racketeers were working har-
meniously in pursuit of their extortions
and hlackmail enterprises
1t is of no moment at all in fact,
whether Lingle was himself involved in
relations with the crooks. His murder
grew out Of the decentralization from
which Chicago has been suffering for a
number of years, the breakdown of law
enforcement, the incompetence or verse
of police, the lnenieiency of the courts.
Honest citizen or ally of the criminal
gangs, he vas the victim of the lawless-
