TRAINING

"Reds" Barry will conclude
training today for his eight-round
scuffle with frankie Wine Mon
day night at Fort Washington.
Wine defeated Dewey Kimery in
10 rounds at Charlotte, N. c.,
last night.
The local heavyweight has been
hitting the road every day this
week to strengthen his leg
muscles. His hackers are again
predicting that Barry will sur
prise those on hand Monday
night with a demonstration Of
swiftness that will dazzle those
who are predicting he will be
flattened within four rounds.
Wine will arrive here tomorrow
evening and workout in the after.
noon at the Terminal gym
nasium.
The promoters added another
four-round preliminary to the
card. Soldier Sager, Of Fort
Washington will clash with Soldier
Smith, Of Fort Myer, in the
opener.

Southern California and st.

experts figure the Trojans are

Psychology is also in favor of
the AS and give me credit for
spelling it right. The first two

Suppose the AS and Cards split

On the train bound East,
Connie Mack will say to his
team, "BOyS, we've got the next

Even if he let 'erl ride in lower
berths, that would still make 'em
fighting mad.
When money players like the
AS realize that after the first
four games they are playing for
nothing. it spurs them to finish
up quick. There will only be one
incentive. for players to prolong
a world series and that is when it
is between Montreal and Mil

have mastered the art of prop

ods of Mills, Colrick and Leahy
will work wonders with this team
before the season is over. Always,
of course, providing, individuals

My chief reason is that the AS
are always first in alphabet soup,
But I did not let this sway me
until it was corroborated from
many other angles. For instance.
Philadelphia was a going town in
1776, whereas st. Louis was not
founded till many years later
This gave the AS a longer time
to practice. My third reason is
the same as the first two.
Now I hope this clears up the
mind Of anxious readers.

SO long as it goes seven games,

The AS have so much conf.

hand, the Cards were so busy pro-

three times, and his best players
didn't even dare take time off to

AS very fresh. Of course Mickey

HELD
FOR RELIEF
WORK
By GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent

llme0 SIaI1 IOEFeSpOuueHt
NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The
necessity of playing safe in every
game for the remainder of the
season faces the Griffmen more
so now than ever following yester-
days defeat at the hands of the
Yankees, 8 to 3.
Manager johnson has decided
to keep big Fred Marberry, his
most powerful pitcher, as an ace
in the hole.
johnson does not plan starting
the big pitcher on the mound in
either Of the two games scheduled
today with the Yankees.
"I think Fred can be more
valuable to us as a relief pitcher
now" says Johnson. "He'S the
sort of player who can do his
best work under pressure, and
I'm thinking there's going to be
lots Of that before we leave
here"
That's the reason I haven't
started him before. He certainly
finished the way we all figured
he would in Wednesdays open
ing game against the Yanks,
and he would have halted things
Yesterday, il it hadn't been for
Rice's unfortunate miscue. I'm
wninU tn hold Fred for every
emergency which might arise
today. Even though it might
for both contests"
With this thought in mind
settled johnson has announced
that Lefty Lloyd Brown and
Bump Hadley would be MS
pitchers in today's double-header.
81 figure with any sort Of
support, Hadley might come
through for us in one of the
tits" says Johnson. "And
Brownie, by pitching carefully
should work his way to victory
in the other. Yes, Lloyd has
had enough rest. In fact he
wants to hurl again. I'm go.
ing to gamble with Hadley and
Brown today. And with Mar
berry behind them both as the
relief man, feel safe that we
have q chance to win one Of
the games at any rate"
The Griffs, by losing yester:
day, dropped a full game gained
on Wednesday, by the way.
Their margin over the YankS at
the present moment stands at
half a game-a slim lead, but a
lead Just the same.
81 believe well win out" says
Johnson. 81 realize the task
that lies before as, but Pm not
afraid of it. And neither are
the boys. Any of them will
tell you that losing the way
we did yesterday was just one
of those things"
Getting back to Marberry.
johnson stated he'd use Fred
Sunday against the Boston Red
sox at Griffith stadium-provid-
ing, of course, he did not have
to work the big pitcher too stren-
uously today.
Naturally, we've got to
swing the best we have in Sun
days fray, now that it's 60
ing to mean so much to us.
And Fred'S the man to bring
us through, there's no doubt
about that"
All Of which brings out the in.
teresting facts that Marberry
has become the Griffmen's Man
of the Hour"
"T'm ready" is Fred's only
comment.

New Jersey. President Wilson, after
clearly stating that he favored local

But the questions involved are So
cial and moral, and are not susceptible
Of being made parts of a party pro-
gram. Whenever they have been made

the utter confusion of political action

every other question, however ifnpor-

made constructive party action innpos-

myself am concerned, therefore, I
can never consent to have the question
of local option made an issue Between
political parties in this State. My
judgment IN very clear in this matter,

be said that some of the rank and
file on either side demand partisan
steps on this question instead of nom

need more enlightened and courageous

misunderstanding Clouds True Purposes
Of U. S. in Standing by Monroe Doctrine

The error, It seems TO ne, was In defiii-
ing the. doctrine as regional tinder-
standing.
That the intentions Of the covenants
writer's were not offensive for Latin
America mag be clearly seen from the
various draft formulas Of Article XXI,
which were suggested before the present
text was adopted. 1t appears now kx-
treniely interesting to remember them.
Former President William Taft's for
rrlt1la read: ANY American State or
any American States can protect the
integrity Of American territory and the
independence Of the government whose
territory Is endangered, be this mem
Der Of the League or not, and may, In
the interest of American peace, oppose
and prevent the future transfer of
american territory or sovereignty to
any power foreign to the Western
Hemisphere"
President wilson's formula said ::
Nothing in this covenant can alter
or deny the right of any American
state or any American States to protect
the integrity Of the territory and the
independence of any American Govern
ment whose territory is Endangered,
W v. e,ai this Is a member Of the League
or not, or in the interests Of the Amer
lean peace, to oppose and prevent the
future transfer of American territory
or SQvereigntv to any power outside
the Western Hemisphere"
Wording Is Unfortunate.
Finally, Sir Robert Cecii's projected
formula was: Nothing In this covenant
can be interpreted as altering any in
ternattonal obligations OF agreements
TO preserve world peace, as the arbi-
tration treaties or the Monroe Doc
From these formulas to the text Of
Article. XXI actually inserted ia the
covenant there is a considerable dis
lance, IT seems to me that il any
one Of these formulas had been adopt
Cd, instead Of the text defining the
standing" many unfortunate incidents
like the. recent Mexican Remuneration
would have been avoided.
