Johnny Corriden's Indians were in
st. Paul today to begin their long
road campaign that will keep them
away from the home park nearly a
month. Many Indianapolis fans are
looking ahead to the Tribe series in

the day after the running of the
Kentucky Derby. The May 16 game
there will be postponed and played

the athletes turn in for the night.

Nation Sees No Substitute
For Corvallis Surrender

like asking the Nation to forego the cele-
bration of the Fourth of July" The
Dayton Daily News offers the judgment:
Since Yorktown. America has had 116
years of unbroken peace with Great
Britain. In one war. our latest. we have
been allies. We must go on with our
memory of the time We rolled John Bull
in the dust. If he wants to be even for
the surrender at Yorktown in 1871 he
can celebrate the time we surrendered
to him without fighting at Detroit in
1872. After that We can be friends
again for another l16 years.
Was ever anything more ridiculous?"
asks the Roanoke World News, with the
statement as to historical consideration:
In the first place, Wfat is the sesuui-
centennial for. but to mark the 15Oth
anniversary of that surrender. which
ended the War of the Revolution and
MADE possible the establishment of the
Government Of the United States? But
more than that. what intelligent Brit
lsi1er could possibly be offended if the
pageant IS even remotely true to the
IactS Oh history? Has not Sir Esme
Howard, British Ambassador, spoken of
yorktown as the greatest victory for
English liberty? Was it not SO regarded
by Edmund Burke, and the great Will
liam Pitt, and other liberal leaders In
the British Parliament? Did not the
eloquent Charles Fox give up a place
IN the North ministry to defy King
George and espouse the cause of the
struggling American Colonies?"

The Davis Cup.

In winning the Davis Cup for the
fifth successive year France has again
demonstrated her tennis supremacy over
the rest of the world. With the United
States eliminated by England it gave
that nation the right to play France for
the title. and although the matches were
close the British were unable to shake
Frances tenacious hold on the silver
bowl emblematic of the highest honor
to be won on the courts.
There WIS time, not many years
ago. when the United States was the
ruler of the tennis domain. but since
the heyday of Tilden and oilers no
team has been developed that can COM
pete successfully with the stars from
the European continent. The United
States has several young players who
have not yet reached the peak of their
game. and it may be thai another year
will see America in the thick of it for
Davis Cup honors. Uncle Sam does not
like to come out second best, or as in
this case third best, in any sport, and
1t is assured that every effort will be
made to regain lost laurels.

Stand of Wickersham
On Juveniles Hailed
From the Milwaukee Sentinel

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
Attorney General Mitchell, in a pub
lie statement, fatty denies the charges
of cruelty to children confined in Fed
eral prisons
At the same time Mr. Mitchell agrees
with the main conclusions of the Wick
ersham Commission and asserts that
its study and recommendations will
iortl1y the Government in the position
1t has long occupied with respect to
juvenile offenders.
The main conclusions of the COM
mission were that the Federal Govern
ment is not in a position to deal
satisfactorily with youthful offenders,
that the welfare of juveniles will be
better served if they are left under
the control and supervision of local
authorities and that the responsibility
for caring for juvenile delinquents
properly rests on the communities In
which they live.
There can't be very much question
as to the common sense of the COM
missions recommendations and it is
gratifying to know that they coincide
with the views of the Federal au-
liberties
The idea of putting children Of IS
and Is years of age in Federal prisons
is repugnant to thoughtful persons,
particularly in Wisconsin, which pos
sesses the most enlightened juvenile
code of any State. Under existing
laws the Federal Government is re-
quired to take care of youngsters con-
victed of Federal offenses and the re-
port of the Wickersham Commission
opened the eyes Of the public to a
startling number of juvenile convic-
tionS in Federal courts.
Legislation which will permit the
transfer of juvenile cases to State
courts, where more enlightened meth
DDS of dealing with youthful delin-
quents prevail, is sensible. humane, and
ought to be enacted without delay.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Nature seldom pursues the even tenor
of her ways. Mostly she is at extremes.
Last Summer she gave the country
sample of dryness. this season she
floods our gardens with water.
This is particularly unfortunate for
grass situated under trees and in other
shady places. Grass in such places Is
always the most difficult to grow.
Last Summer, when gardens were
bone dry, grass under trees did very
well, where it did not die out entirely.
TIE continued rains during July have
caused many shady yard which had
done we'll hitherto to become soggy
with moisture.
Most forms of grass growing in
shady hooks Is Of flne-bladed char
acter, easily trampled out. Excessive
rains mat this easily and cause moss
and other growths to spring up freely.
The result is that bare. soil Is show
ing through in many such yards, after
a preliminary season which bids fair
to break all records for grass growth.
Lack Of sunshine, of course, Is at
the bottom of all such failures.
Lawns which get the full sunlight all
day long do not suffer, but have in
many instances, got the benefit OF the
broad-leaved varieties which some peo-
pie call June grass"
Yet it is a question, among those
sincerely interested in good lawns.
whether most grass plots look as well
as they might be expected to, consld-
ering the plentiful rains.
1t may be that all vegetation Is SUI
fering from the effects of the drought
Nature is resilient. possesses great
deal of stretch, as it were: is able TO
come back" after receiving the most
severe punishment.
Maybe the drought of 1880 was Just
a bit too much, though.
X X
Grass remains the bad boy of the
garden.
One can sympathize with the
wealthy gentleman, whoever he Is, who
has filled his front parking with nice
round yellow pebbles.
The entire plot, once covered with
grass OF a sort. is now given over to
neat pebbles. which are the same in
season and out of season.
The effect, while not as good as
good grass, is perhaps better than
poor grass. Certainly thousands Of
persons who have wrestled with recall
citrant lawns will sympathize with the
owner.
No doubt that is one way of cutting
it is one which most people will not
have the heart to attempt.
Nor, indeed. is their house of the
architecture to permit it,
Green grass is the best framing ma
terial for 999, 999 out of every 100000
homes. That fact is realized by every
one. that is why every one tries to have
good grass.
And how hard they try!
Homeowners use stakes and wires to
keep thoughtlesS children off. They re-
sort to every sort Of makeshift in order
tc give their plots of grass chance to
grow.
Often the results are negligible. but
the attempt has been made. One of
the most interesting studies one can
make. in going around the city, is to
examine the lawns and to see how other
people have attempted to solve a diff
cult problem.
A few have good grass.
Farther along there will be lawns not
so good, with here and there one in
which only a few blades of grass are
growing.
