THANKS
PUBLIC FOR
SUPPORT
By GARRETT WATERS

Joe Cronin, the ball players
player, sat in the clubhouse,
perspiration streaming down his
forehead, cap back on his head
and a pleased grin on his coun-
tenance.
The victory that clinched the
penrant for his teammates had
just been registered and there was
Just that certain lull around the
room following the players JOY
GUS departure for their homes.
Smiling and very happy, Man
ager Joe" was ever willing to en-
gage in a little chat with your
correspondent as chair was
brought up. He began with a
contented sigh:
"WelI, we did it, didn't we?
An / want to tell you it's all
been very great. Now, that it's
all over, / want to thank the
players, press, radio people
everybody-fOr their great CO.
operation since the opening OF
the campaign, and I want to ex-
press my appreciation for the
fine manner in which the boys
have worked with me through
thick and thin"
GANG A SWELL BUNCH
"They're d swell bunch, the
rang, the best I've ever had the
pleasure of assOciating with;
I'd even like to go further by
saying they are a credit to the
game.
'It's been a long, hard strug-
gle, but the boys have stuck
with me to the limit and now
that we've clinched it, know
we all feel very happy about
it. Naturally, feel great and
I really wish I could express
nv feelings the way 1 want to.
I'm too happy right at this
moment, 1 guess, but I think
my many friends will under
stand"
Joe, yesterday evening, was the
toast of thousands because Of
the success that went with the
winning of that needed game
from the Browns. Today, he's
probably the toast of thousands
more as he really is the new
sensation of the baseball world.
He is certainly deserving of all
the honors that are being be-
slowed him. For there has sell
dom been a more personable chap
in the game before, nor a fellow
who has labored tirelessly to keep
his fellowmen plugging away until
the pennant-winning feat was
accomplished.
Congratulate CrOnin
Before the many Griffmen de-
parted from the clubhouse yester.
day, Cronin was the center Of
their congratulatory remarks.
Every member of the roster
slapped him on the back, reached
for his hand, or shouted his feel
ings that it was great that he had
directed another pennant Wash
ington's way.
And so it can easily be seen why
Cronin sat placidy in the club
house after the din of excitement
had ended. He was resting, yes,
even reviewing the entire cam
paign in his mind when he opened
up to your correspondent:
"WelI, we did it, didn't We?"

conditions surrounding his scouting by
Joe Engel in Kansas City, his price, etc.
It was like this:
Along about mid-season in 1928 Joe
Engel dropped off a rattler at Kansas
City to satisfy his curiosity about a
young infielder he had noticed prac-
ticing before the Washington Pitts
burgh 1925 world series games in Pitts
burgh and whom he later took a fancy
to in 1925 when the young man had
been shunted off the Pirates to the
New Haven club of the Eastern League.
The lad was Joe Cronin and meanwhile
he had gone back to Pittsburgh until
April, 1928, whence he went to the

CENTRAL
GR|DDERS PLAY

Tech and Central High Schools
get their first taste of football
under the lights this season when
they clash tonight with out-of'
town opponents on foreign fields.
Elmer Hap" Hardell, the bride
groom-football coach, who always
manages to turn out a strong
team for the Manual Trainers re-
,gardless of material. again sounds
his note of pessimism, without
which no local season is complete.
He picks Eastern as the team to
beat with Central also due for a
strong showing.
Because Baltimore Polytechnical
Institute hasn't been practicing
long, he believes his boys have a
chance to win tonight. He will
start Coiner and Mclean, ends;
King and Josselyn, tackles: Geiger
and Hadaway; Baxter, center;
Pisani, quarterback; Heatwole
and Wahl, halves and Hess, full
back.
Bert Coggins, Central's mentor,
picked up one star yesterday as
another went to the bench with
a broken finger. Frank Kocsis,
who had been on the sidelines
for more than a week with an
infected toe, rejoined the back
field group as Nick Pistolas, regu-
lar guard injured his finger.
Against the Charlottesville Elves
tonight at Charlottesville, Cog
gins will start Whedon and De-
Lisio, ends; Holmes and Hay,
tackles; Nickoloupous and Chaim-
son, guards; Dunn, center, and
Kocis. King. Richardson and Dun

It is quite a romance, this
story of Cronin's from here on,
a baseball romance, understand
us, for insofar as anyone
knows, no other type of ro-
nance has ever come into Joe
Cronin'S young and eventful
life. Next to his mother Joe
Cronin loves Mrs. Tom FIaher-
ty, a woman who is probably
the age of Joe's mother: be-
cause it was Mrs. Flaherty's
deceased husband who guided
and encouraged Cronin in his
personal life Immediately he
came to Washington. The
Cronins and Flahertys, mind
you, are from Frisco.

NORTH CAROLINA SHOUTS MOI"

North Carolina, despite the special
campaigning there of Postmaster
General Farley, voted decisively
against prohibition repeal more than
two to one, apparently.
The tremendous wave OF demand for
change, which more on less paralleled
the tremendous wave of demand for
prohibition when it was adopted is
not to produce Il unanimous lineup OF
the states. That is all it means.
But ii Is not too early to warn the
vets that If in their greed for profit
from the liquor business they forget
all their professions Of an interest in
true temperance" and all their pro
fessed hostility to return Of the sa-
loon, and if in the fights over control
legislation ia the several states they
go out after everything that can be
grabbed-if, in short, they OVer-reach
themselves as in the past they always
did-NOrth Carolina may be saying. Il
told you so in the not so distant flu
ture. And others may be agreeing -

SALOON SHOWS IT'S HAND.

T. Although solemn promise was made
by all political leaders who urged re-
peal Of the Eighteenth Amendment
that under no circumstances would
return Of the saloon be considered
there already has been started in Mon
tana movement to secure immediate
change in the law so that liquor may
be sold just as it was previous to De-
cember 81, 1919 when the State went
dry
" The law adopted by the last Legis-
lature provides that all sales of Ii
quor shall be handled by the State
in one store i'm each county in charge
Of an agent appointed by the Gov
ernor, and that no purchase can be
made without a permit BY provid-
ing for the sale in original packages
only and at all times under state con-
troll, it does remove the possibility of
the return of the saloon.
The sponsors of the petitions which
originated in Butte and which now are
being circulated i'm Missoula, express
their fear that the new law will
prove lone of the creates menaces
TO the American home, namely the
turning into barroOms of homes un-
der the system set up through state
stores" Their objective is frankly
stated in this paragraph: I'VE believe
that liquor can be sold by the glass for
consumption on the premises or
original packages, without impairine
public morals or corrupting the
citizenry."'
Thus the saloon shows it's hand. II
hopes to come back to Montana, not
in two years or in a year, but right
away 1t would cause the State tc
spend 100000 for special session OF
the Legislature in order to change the
law for the sole benefit of those who
would profit through restoration OF
the old barroom.
We are not going back to the sa
loon. Even should the Legislature b,
induced to change the law,s of which
there is little chance the fight agains
the saloon would be taken up in ever,
community. The change in sentimen
on the Eighteenth Amendment has no
gone that far.-MissOuian Montana
