the Australian wonder horse died

This was the result of patho-

To START
SERIES
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent

BOSTON, April 13.-The season
in it's infancy, Manager johnson
already is thinking about and
formulating plans for his teams
showing against the Philadelphia
AS who will be met Saturday for
the first time this year, and SUM-
day, Monday and Tuesday of
next week.
To try and win from Connie
Mack's men from the beginning
is the idea of getting off right,
is Johnson's hopes and plans.
Therefore, with this thought
in mind, the earnest pilot an
nounced today that Gen. Alvin
Crowder and Big Fred Marberry
would be his pitchers in the
first two games of the series,
leaving it up to Lefty Lloyd
Brown, Carl Fischer and Monte
Weaver to win the rest with a
strong accent on the winning
business.
Gwen though the Yankees
are supposed to be most dan
gerOus contender for the pen
nant, it's still the AS we must
beat il a flag is to be won this
year." said johnson this morn
ing. "Thus, it is my plan to
use Crowder and Marberry in
the first two games in the idea
that they will get us off to a
flying start. Lt'll be up to the
other three-BrOwn, Fischer
and Weaver-tO get those other
two games, and whoever starts
has a good chance, 1 believe, If
we back them properly at bat"
The Griffs engage the AS Sat
urday at Philadelphia in the first
game of the series of four sched'
uled. Sunday the two teams drop
down to Washington to play the
Sabbath encounter of the set,
while the teams jump right back
to Philadelphia Sunday night,
where games Tuesday and
Wednesday will finish the series.
Must Win
Of course, the Griffs must win
from the Boston Red SoX, whom
they play today, tomorrow and
Friday, to keep up all good work
begun last Monday. But victories
over the AS will react so much
more favorably on the players,
Johnson believes. that success and
continuation of it will be the
teams as the season progresses.
Jim Mcleod was to join the
Griffs today, by the way. The for
mer Chattanooga Shortstopper was
late leaving "Engel City" Monday,
thus his arrival today to the
Griffs, late as it may be.
Your Uncle Clark Griffith came
near getting that seasoned in
fielder recently, it was learned this
morning. But negotiations fell
through just when Griff was about
to make an announcement of the
acquisition of this player.
Wanted Flowers
Jake Flowers, former st. Louis
Nd4N44ldA, was VIC uldI WIZ dl"
most became a Griffman. Flow
ers is now with the Milwaukee
Millers of the American ASSocia-
ton. Griff phoned, wrote, tele-
graphed and airmailed all last
week for Flowers services, it de-
velops, but the deal crashed when
Milwaukee officials could not see
their way clear to let the veteran
National Lacquer get away from
them.
The incident brings out the eff.
forts your Uncle Clark Griffith is
putting forward these days, how
ever, to get an infielder to balance
Manager Walter JohnSon's utility
player department. Maybe a sea-
Soned performer will be corralled
yet if Griff keeps on trying. In
the meanwhile the youngster Nc
Leod will be carried until some
body better is found

CONVENTION NAMES
WALSH PERMANENT
CHAIRMAN AT CHI
Enthusiasm Generated for
Nomination of Gov.
Roosevelt

CHICAGO, June 2S.-(AP)
O-Three times a Roosevelt
hurricane smashed the OPP
position in Tuesdays intense
session of the Democratic
convention, elevating Senat-
or Walsh of Montana to the
perm a n ent craftsmanship,
settling in its own way the
two delegation contests and
in general hurting on with
an enthusiasm generated for
a supreme effort to capture
the presidential nomination
by a two-thirds majority.
But the majorities in every in
stance were more than a hundred
short of the ITO that will be re-
quired to nominate, the attempt
to allow leeway for a simple major
ity nomination having been given
up finally by all hands. Ending the
six-hour meeting, the convention
specifically adopted the 100-year-
old rule.
Senator Walsh received a 626 to
528 margin. In the other two pa
tience-trying roll-calls, the Roose-
veltian flock seated the Senator
Huey Long delegation from Lousi-
ana by 638& to 514h and the
Minnesotans led by Einar Hoidale
on a count of 658h against 1921.
The veteran and scholarly Mon
tana senator it was who presided
thru those days of torrid dispute

HAIL STRIKES FARM
LANDS WEST OF E
d ON

While rain fell at various points
in Carbon and Yellowstone coun-
ties Saturday, a hail storm struck
the benchlands west of Red Lodge,
causing damage over a wide swath.
The general path of the storm
extended from the mountains south
of Luther to Shane Ridge, beating
down a strip eight miles wide at
some places. Hailstones we're re-
ported to be larger than eggs.
Damage to crops in the Luther
vicinity was reported.
On the subject of hail, the state
board of hail insurance in it's an
nual bulletin to Montana grain
growers remarks that this year the
smallest amount of hail insurance
for several years has been written.
Drouth and poor crops for the past
two years have resulted in neglect
by many growers of the precau-
tions usually taken in favorable
years.
Losses and expenses in 1881
made it necessary to charge the
maximum rate, says the hail board.
All losses were paid in full, how
ever, and so per cent of the ac-
counts had been paid in full be-
fore December, 1881.

RI. SCHOOLS ARE
FORCED TO RUN ON
HALF-TIME BASIS
Voters of District Refuse
Special 12-mill Levy
for Maintenance

FAILING to secure permis-
sion of the Red Lodge vot-
ers to impose a special r.
mill levy for maintenance of
the city schools for the COM
ing year, the school board
has found it necessary to
plan operation of the schools
for only one half of the usual
time next year, according to
announcement of Carl J.
Pelo, clerk of the board.
District voters defeated the spe-
cial levy measure by a count of 81
to SO, in the special election held
here Monday. On Tuesday the
Board met and passed the follow
ing resolution:
WHEREAS, the special levy for
general maintenance of our schools
has not been authorized by the
voters of this district at the special
election called for that purpose;
and
WHEREAS, the school board
has exerted every effort to reduce
operating expenses and has re-
duced salaries from 10 to 1872 per
cent and have reduced operating
expenses of the district almost
100000 from last years budget;
and
WHEREAS, the board is COM
PEELED by law TO operate within its
income and the income for the en-
suirg year will not permit a full
nine months term of school and
will only permit approximately
four and one-half months of school;
now
THEREFORE, BE 1T RESOL-
WE'D that it is the sense of this
board that school district No. One
reduce the ensuing school term to
four and one-half months or one
semester only and that all teachers
and janitors be requested to advise
the board Immediately if they will
accept employment upon the four
and one-half months basis for the
ensuing school term"
In comparison with the 10-mill
levy allowed by Red Lodge voters,
it is noted that the Roberts school
district allows a levy of % mills;
Fromberg, district 80, has a levy
of rs mills; Bearcreek, no. 81, al
lows 80 mills for its schools; and
Washoe, no 81, contributes 81 mills.
The total Red Lodge school levy
formerly was 35 mills-a levy that
was reduced this year by five mills.
Passage of the special levy would
have given Red Lodge a total 30
mill levy, including the levy allow
ed by law, the special 12-mill levy,
with the county common school
levy and the interest and sinking
fund levy-the latter two being
granted by the county, and not
subject to control by the city.

SHUTDOWN ORDER
is RECEIVED HERE
BY WI OFFICIALS
Low Market Said Cause of
Suspension; Notify
Contractors

Closing of the last and only coal
mine in operation in Red Lodge
was announced Monday by officials
of the Northwestern Improvement
company here.
Notice of the closing was re-
ceived late Saturday by Harry
Bailey, acting superintendent of
the Red Lodge mine, from c. C.
Andersen, general manager of the
Northwestern Improvement COM
pany at Seattle, Wash.
Local operators were ordered to
cease all operation, and to instruct
contract miners to remove tools
and equipment. The order became
effective Monday, the mine to be
completely closed June 80, indefn-
itely.
The low condition of the coal
market was given as the reason
for the Red Lodge shutdown.
The only coal slope in operation
in the Red Lodge field for the
past one and a half years has been
the No. 8 slope on the east side of
Rock creek, the west side mine
having been closed in 1924, and
the shafts on the east from time
to time during the years since
then.
Except for a suspension during
the general strike in 1922, coal
mining has been carried on stead
lily here for 43 years, the first
mine having been opened in 1889.
During the years of greatest pro-
duction, 1916 and 1917, there were
four slopes in operation, the Sun
set mine, the One-and-a-Half, the
No. 2 and the No. 4, and the No.
8 tunnel. During the period of peak
production the mines were deliver
ing about 1900 tons of coal a day
| employing slmost 1000 men.
