CRON|N MAKES
THIRD CHANGE
IN LINEUP
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff COrresDOndent

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, March q.
Changing batting orders may be-
come a popular pastime for the
Griffmen this year if Manager
Joe Cronin feels that a particular
one isn't clicking just as it should.
This means that the peppery
pilot will be ready to try any,
thing this summer in an effort
to keep his team in winning
stride.
So far this spring Manager Joe
has tried three batting orders
all experimental. The first one
had Ossie Bluege in the second
hole" followed by Manush, Goslin,
Cronin, Schultz and Kubel..
About a week ago he dropped
Bluege down to seventh and
moved his sluggers up a notch
each, keeping Myer as lead-off
man and making Heine Manush
the second batter, or hit-and-run
man.
Yesterday Pilot Joe made his
latest change. He still had Myer
as batter No. /, but had Joe
Kubel as batsman No. 2. followed
by Manush, himself, Goslin fifth,
Schultz sixth and Bluege seventh.
The young pilot says he will
employ this order for a few days
if it works better than any other.
If not, he'll make more changes
until the right balance is found.
until the boys get to hitting
properly, there'll probably be
many shifts" claims Cronin.
1--WE must find the best bal.
anced batting order, and until
we do, there1l be changes. I'm
doing this now because it's bet
ter to experiment at this early
stage of the season than later.
Still, if changes are necessary
later, they'll be made and
prOntO. Sometimes they help a
great deal"
One of the most important rea-
sons why yesterdays change was
effected was because of Goose
Goslin's light hitting so far this
spring. But the Goose will be
moved up one or two notches
later on, as he's too good a bats
men to be stationed so low in the
lineup.
Right now. he's in one of his
characteristic spring slumps. But
it's not serious as the great slug
ger has always been known to be
a light batter at this time of the
year.
It will be interesting to watch
the performance of Joe Kuhel, as
second hitter, for the next few
days. This is new position for
the versatile young first base
man, but his penchant for driv-
ing in runs might come in handy
by his shift to batter number
two in the new order.
Drills Diligently
Joe, incidentally, has been
practicing diligently during the
past two weeks, trying to get his
eye in mid-season form for the
old ball. At Biloxi he used to
sneak out in the mornings before
game time and have one or two
of the kid pitchers throw at him
until he was socking to all
corners of the lot.
This proves that Kuhel is seri-
Gus about holding down that
first base job this year. The
Kansas City prize realizes that
he must make good-now that
the post has been given to him
without any opposition-and he
knows that one of the items
that'll win favor with bosses
Clark Griffith and Joe Cronin,
will be his hitting. He hopes TO
achieve a mark we'll over 800
before next September rolls
around.
He's got the right idea, at any
rate.

Avoiding Mistakes.
(New York World -Telsgram.)

The United States, the of return of beer and light wines and the subsequent repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment will make serious mis- takes if it does not study the problem in advance and profit to the utmost from the mistakes and successes of other countries
 Canada and Finland had to make extensive ad- justments in their original plans of Government controlled sales Rum running and bootegging re- fused to die just because liquor was publicly sold. Finland started out with too rigorous restrictions, which were actually a form of Prohibition, with most of it's evils. These were steadily lberalzed, but bootlegging still goes on
 Nova Scotia has prevented bootleggng in beer and wine by making the price very low But Nova Scotia has attempted to make money by heavy taxation of hard liquor, and bootleggng is thriving las a result.
 So it is apparent offhand that Government in trying to reduce drinking and enforce temperance by high prices stimulates moonshining and general law violations. This clearly shown in our Prohibition days. Government in the liquor business apparently has to undersel free lances or be afflicted with criminal opposition.
 This is but part of the general problem which will be handed to this country for solution when Congress authorizes wine and beer and when the Eighteenth Amendment is repealed Governor Leh- man has board studying this problem in New York State Emanuel Celer has put forth plan for county licensing John D. Rockefeller Jr, is send ing commission to Finland where the wet return occurred only last year
 The drys are building up propaganda to the ef- feet that modification of the Volsead law and repeal would create chaos They draw pictures of the old saloon days coming back
 But the experiments of both Canada and Finland have been successful as to contradict the dry arguments. Government control of liquor sales has lreduced drunkenness, bootlegging and racketeerng It has increased temperance.
 If the United States works out it's problem thor oughly in advance of Congressional action mistakes will be minmized good psychological start upon the truly noble experiment will be indispensable.

Minister of Morale.
Cincinnati Enquirer )


 It seriously is suggested that new member be added to President Roosevelts Cabnet-a "Secre- tary of Public Morale" This is indeed something new, at least since the day of the Puritan in this country
 Here is opened up an intergueing perspective the raising and stabiizing of popular sentiment by official action The modus operandi is not explained but the idea to be the centrazaton of public welfare interests in the hands of an individual authority. Would such addition to the Cabinet re- lieve each other member of his duty to contribute to the general good in his way within the Limitations of his office? And would the influence of the new Cabinet member be extended to private morals as well as public morale? And what should be the qualifications of such political semi deity?
 The suggestion seems to smack of the same spirit which fastened the lamentable Prohibition policy upon the country It proposes final author ity for our goings in and our comings out indus trially, socially and spiritually-the appointing of an official shepherd-doubtess with club or rock behind his back-to overlook the nations affairs to groove its sentiments into appointed channels
 Obviously it would appear to be a gigantic task for any authority centralized diffused to straighten out this disturbed and complex morale of the Democratic Republican parties at this time, to say nothing of confused and harried public interest in any other relation.

A CAPABLE ORGANIZATION.

The Alaska Legislature started off yesterday in most promising fashion. It did splendid days work when it completed it's organization installing capable experienced and efficient men in the posi- tions of President of the Senate, Speaker of the House Secretary of the Senate and Clerk of the House.
 Senator Allen Shattuck is as nearly ideal for the Presidency of the upper branch as can be found. He brings to the position wealth of experience from both private and official life As President of the local Chamber of Commerce many times, he gained familiarity in presiding over public bodies As Representative and later Senator he acquired a knowledge of the procedure of the Legislature which finely equps him for the presiding office. An indefatigabls worker conscientious and painstaking sanely progressive sound questions of public pol icy possessed of an innate sense of dignity, he is everything that the President of the Senate should be
 Joe Mcdonald, now entering his third suc- csssive term in the lower branch, is also welftted by experience for the Speakership to which he was elected by a unanimous vote. Quiet, unassuming earnest and sincere he has earned the mered repu- tation of being one of the most valuable members of the organization. He knows the ways of the House how it conducts business and be depended on to carry it on with all possible dispatch. He possesses the confidence of his fellows in degree not surpassed by anyone. He is always fair, court eous and generous in his dealings He will fill the Speakership with credit to himself and honor tc the House.
 In Mrs. Agnes Adsit for Secretary of the Senate and Claud Helgesen for Clerk of the House, both bodies have chiefs of staffs who can be depended to carry out their orders and render them the highest class of service Seldom in it's history has the Legislature had two such efficient and capable aids at the time. With a corps of able assist ants, they will handle the business efficiently and expeditously

CARING FOR OUR GAME RESOURCES

The current activities of volunteers in feeding deer over large north, south and west of Juneau, and similar relief of migratory wild fowl on the flats bordering Gastneau Channel from town to MendenhaI constitute the finest sort of reply to those uninformed individuals somewhere east" of the Mississippi who impute to Alaskans the desire to do nothing but extermnate the Terrtorys wild life. Of course, there not many of that class who have appointed themselves to be the sayiours of our game. The great bulk of sincere wild life protectionists who have personal acquaint- ance with Alaskans and with conditions that obtain here are under such false impression.
 Except for such volunteer work that being done by the party that left here recently aboard the Alaska Game Commissions vessel Seal, to cover hun dreds of miles of shoreline Admiralty Douglas and Chichagof Islands, hundreds of deer would die of starvation. These men asked for no pay for their work and their time. Both they are donating as good sportsmen and good citizens The local sports men who are contributing money for the purchase

MAYOR ANTON ]. CERMAK.

In the life of Anton J. Cernak, Mayor of Chicago, whose death in Miami the result of bullet wounds at the hands of an assassin who sought to take the life of President Elect Roosevelt, is typified all of the of America. He died in manner typical of his ving-waging gallant fight against great odds. From the first medical attendants entertained but little hope for his cry but he refused to give up and if the will to live had been al-availing, then he had not died
 That the spirit that characterized Mayor Cermak's rise from poverty stricken immigrant lad to the head of the second greatest city in the land of his adoption. He didn't gain the peak by 8 sudden brilliant coup, rather by persistent fight to overcome handcaps that might well have defeated a weaker character. He mounted the ladder of success steadily if not rapidly. Each step was planned and taken orderly And his defeat of Big Bill" Thompson famed far and wide as boss of Chicago, brought him into national prominence. Since taking that office he has abored nightly to drive out the forces of hoodlumsm and racketeering not without material success He was not less active in seeking to raise his city out of the financial depths to which it had been dragged during the long Thompson regime.
 President Roosevelt paid him a real tribute shortly after he was wounded, saying: The Nation needs you" Chicago and the nation does need men like Cermak. His tragic and untimely end is indeed a loss to his city and his country.

of grain to be fed to ducks and geese present in large numbers in nearby flats are motivated by the spirit.
 The need is serious and will be for short time. In both many can aid. All who go afieId in the eer-inhabted regions can, by equipping them selves with a small axe, cut small trees and brush for browse for the animals. And small contribu- tions from all local sportsmen will assure abund ance of grain for the wildfowl The benefits from this relief work are obvious, aside from the humani- taran aspect which is not inconsiderable. Deer saved undepeted stock and continued good hunting in coming seasons. Birds fed near here apt to remain over the breeding season, giving the stocking of these areas new impetus and providing better shooting in the years to come All who ought to share in these activities

The Dime-Tip Era.
(New York Herald Tribune

The lament of the speaker at recent meeting Of nationwide organization of headwaiters to the effect that maitres dhotel and captains no longer receive the lavish fees of prosperous years for their services and that the average garcon today considers himself lucky if he receives thin, worn dime for his pains serves to remind that at least the depression has accomplished the rehabilitation Of the 1o-cent tip. Just how long ago it was that dime was in vogue pourbore and was received with respectful gratitude only odtimers and chron- iclers of our social mores compute
 Now, however, there seems to be true renas- sance of the dime tip Even the half dime" a coin long supposed known only to numismatists, is received with smilink obesance. The nickel shine flourshes once more, at least along the sidewalk reaches of the metropolis and who knows when the l0-cent shave may not return? Perhaps it would even be expedent for Treasury experts to look into the possible use of the three and two cent pieces whose coinage discontinued long ago.
