Messrs. Buck Grier and Frank
KerSey speaking almost in uni
son. They handle the Northern
Red Birds and Knickerbockers re-
spectively. All season they have
found it extremely difficult to
schedule games, games that they
think would prove beneficial to
every party concerned.
In other words, MeSSrS. Grler
and Kersey feel that the Mohawks
and ApacheS should welcome an
opportunity to schedule them
ever out-of-town teams where no
interest locally carries with the
teams that come to town.
And they wall.
The Northerns' walls are sub
sided somewhat in the game the
Apaches have arranged with them
for next Wednesday night at Gr11'
fith's Stadium under the Hood
lights.
But the Knickerbockers are yet
to be taken care Of. They want
a game with the Apaches also.
And they want one with the MO
hawks. "Why won't either or both
Of these elevens schedule us?" say
they.
And before the wailing is done,
the st. Marys Celtics are at
tackled for side-tracking. why
say the Northerns and KnlckeI-
bockers won't the Celtics book
them at Alexandria? Surely
they say, it would prove just as
interesting an attraction as a
game involving a Baltimore or
Virginia eleven. a
Such is the sandIOt Situa-
ton every football year.
There are always the smaller
teams which cannot get
games with the bigger ones.
The NOrtherns and Knicker-
bOckerS are the smaller ones
in this instance and the
Apaches, Mohawks and Gel
tics, the bigger ones.
You can hardly blame the
Northerns and Knicks in q way.
Yet you cannot help but see the
reasons why the Mohawks,
Apaches and Celtics don't or
wait to schedule tho loyal teams.
It's a matter t6 be- settled be-
tween the teams concerned how
ever. Good games, purely local,
though, would go over, IS the
thought, and it might not do
either the Apaches, Hawks or
Celtics any harm to try them,
even in their early season plans.

Office Buying-and Selling.

Senator Robert F. Wagner, chosen as
xeynoter Of the New York State Demo-
cratic convention at Syracuse, had
difficult task to perform yesterday in
his necessary reference to the judiciary
scandals that are just now of greater
interest to the people of the State than
the prohibition issue or any economic
matter involved in the campaign. The
reference was necessary because of the
announced intention of the Republican
candidate for the governorship to pitch
his campaign in the key of Tammany
corruption and the Governors relation
to 1t. So the Senator had TO face the
question in behalf of the Governor, who
is being nominated today for second
term, and of Tammany, of which the
keynoter is a faithful member. This is
the way he did it:
The Democratic party has always
stood for the highest probity in public
Office. The Democratic party Is ruthless
In its demands that the courts must be
kept pure and undeflled. kn1w that !
speak for the rank and file and the
conscience of the Democratic party in

: disllones. means should be driven
.4.eIefrom as also from he ranks of
cur party. 1t is needless for me to say
tllst similar treatment must be accorded
TO these who dishonesty ess.st him.
Sitting within the range of his voice
were several of the Tammany district
leaders and ofaceholders who last week
refused to appear before the special

with fresh and fearful memories of
fallen comrades and torn battlenelds,
should be the most ardent and effective
disciples Of peace. Another Is that
theatrical entertainment which takes
the form Of display of wars horrors
is terrific sermon against war. But
these theories, unhappily, are not
founded on any proved fact. And If
any lasting safeguard against war is
ever set up, it will make its appeal to
cold intellect alone, and not to the
emotions, for these do not respond as
optimists like to think they do but as
human experience knows they do.

grand jury which is now sitting under
Gov. Rooseyelt's mandate in investiga-
ton Of the Ewald 1udgeship appointment
scandal They had refused on the
ground that they had been insulted by
the requirement that they waive i'm
munity. They doubtless joined in the
applause that marked Senator Wagner's
reference to the necessity of keeping
the courts pure and undefiled. They
were perhaps gritting their teeth over
the duty of voting for the renomi-
nation of Gov. Roosevelt who has Just
written letter to Mayor Walker urging
him to require the oficeholders under
him to obey the summons of the grand
Jury and to waive immunity and testify.
But they also recognized the political
necessity of the Senator's ringing de-
nunciation of those who obtain
judicial or other public office by dis
honest means and those who dishonesty
assist them.
The special grand jury has requested
the Governor to remove the limitations
which in his mandate he imposed on
the attorney general in order that
the investigation may be conducted into
other suspected instances of office
buying corruption than the Ewald case.
No word had come in response from the
Governor when Senator Wagner deliv-
cred his keynote speech. It is possible
that no word will come until after the
convention has made its nominations
The political preoccupation at the
moment prevents more prompt action
And meanwhile, when the delegates
have returned from Syracuse to New
York, they will perhaps receive the
mayors orders to go before the grand
jury and tell all they within
reason-regarding the sort of thing that
Senator Wagner so definitely denounces
as contrary to democ: attic principles.
