Only two years ago, while we
we're seated in a press box, Eckie in
discussing the death Of Walter
Camp. the greatest Of American
football experts, had the following
to say:
Gee. he went out like a light
didn't he? That's the way I want
to die. I'll bet he's telling the rest
of them how a hundred yards should
be run in nine and three-f1fths
seconds now. He has my envy. l
want TO die that way because there
have been so many of US in the
sports world who were stopped by
a heart which refused to beat any
longer.
perhaps that is a queer feeling
but then we all must die so what
the help Camp was lucky. If 1
am that lucky I'll thank whatever
gods there are, for when you drop
dead you beat a lot Of suffering"
A man without ego. Eckersal was
the greatest of all middle western
sports authorities. His one fault
was that he lived in the past. He
couldn't see a modern achievement.

If some one made a ninety-yard
run in a football game, he immedi-
ately referred to the fact that,
Well, that's pretty good. but Willie
Heston who played for Michigan,
1902-05), would have run their
heads off under the same circum-
stances"
Eche didn't say 1--WE, I ran 105
yards against Wisconsin when
was playing in 1906" or he didn't
say, Il made good six drop kicks
against Nebraska in 1906" nor did
he point out that in the same year
his brain work was responsible for
Chicago beating the great ftichi-
gan team, to D, in what perhaps
was the greatest football upset in
all history.
Eckie was a us-minded, quiet
sort of person, but he carried more
sports information in his head than
any other writer in the middle
west. He was a record book within
himself.
His funeral will be held Thursday

On Probation and Of

Secretary of State Otto Fifield has placed
the author of the bone dry law on prooatloii'
It is presumed that if Wright does not
again lend his name to blue sky vendors VINO
once used it to persuade booteggers 10 ouy
s+ocks even more worthless than their own
wares the dry crusader will remain upon the
public pay roll.
That action may not be important as lar
az WRIGHT is concerned. 1t is the tlp-oH on
Fifed.
The blue sky law is presumed to protect
investors. The people might properly eA-
meet TO have those in charge of it sophlstl-
Gated enough not to be caught by the "lleS
of scoundrels who prey upon the pupllc' Inc
purpose of the law is to act as the OiS
brother for foolish people.
To have the department in charge OF
those who put forward as an excuse Tor thelr
assistance to fakirs a statement that they
were imposed upon will give the public lit
tie confidence in the department as pro-
tective agency.
To lend the name of any official of that
denartment to a stock-selling scheme, le-
Ultimate or illegitimate, is about as gross
a misuse of the powers of that office as can
he imagined ~ .
The secretary of state shows little IN
terest beyond the possible effect on his own
political future and permits the episode to
pass unnoticed, except for private reprl-
mand. indicates that he has the Lake county
viewpoint of public office to an incurabe de-
gree.
The incident should serve as another
warning to those who write tickets for the
Republican party that next year is hardly
<the time to carry excess baggage on trial
flights.
The bone dry author is on probation. But
his chief seems TO have about exhausted pub
lie patience and may not be accorded such
leniency.

What Will DIR. Dorian Do?

Walter Grundt may die from the bullet Of Gus
toms guard. During brief return of consciousness
in Detroit hospital, where he was carried by a
passerby, Grundt said he getting out of a row.
boat when uniformed federal officer stepped up and
shot him without warning
He denied that he bootlegger, and the police
said they had record of him as SUCH
OF course the fact that prohibition enforcement
agent shoots without warning an unarned citizen-f
that is what investigation proves Grundt to have been
long has since ceased to be unusual news.
But to keep the record straight, we respectfully
remind James M. Doran federal prohibition commits
soner, of his official announcement of six days ago.
To quiet the rising public protest against lawlessness
by law officers, Doran sought publicity for govern
ment document entitled training OF enforcement
personnel upon their duties and limitations under the
law" which contained official instructions to such
agents.
The definite regulation regarding use of firearms
follows:
while It is not intended that an officer should
remain impassive and Jeopardize his life or the
life of an associate When danger threatens it is in
tended that extreme caution and cool elaboration
should control his actions The officer should remen-
Der that he will be held strictly liable and personally
responsible for the fatal result of any use of firearms
by him"
What does Doran or the administration intend to
do about the agent who shot Grundt?

Naval Limitation VS.. Reduction

Now that the London naval conference actually Is
setting down to work, the public should be prepared
Tor the ebb and flow OF hopes and reports which ndi
cate failure one day and success the next. This
should not produce reaction Of encouragement or
cynicism The bigger the problem the harder the ne
gotiations.
The conference is away to good start. The open
ing addresses were short oratory and long sober
statement The uncritcal optimism which initiates
so many international conferences and crashes in
failure at the end was lacking.
The mood at London, rather, Is to leave the boast
ing until after 1t is earned by achievement, and to
be content in the beginning with expression of sin
cere intentions
That sincerity not be doubted. 1t is based on
two facts None of the governments balance its
budget if there is to be naval building race-though
we could stand the financial strain much easier than
any of the others And none of the governments can
afford to face the public resentment at home if it
returns without an agreement.
While the delegations are TO be congratulated for
their honest confession of the great differences to be
overcome, and while the peoples at home thus are
warned of long and trying negotiations ahead it viii
be wen for both governments and peoples TO ket
