VTASHINGTON.--One thing you
w didn't hear about in this falls
political campaign was the battle
IF monographs between the Re
publican and Democratic publicity
stats.
The answer to that is that, al
though the battle ragged, it didn't
make any difference. Nobody paid
any attention.
After 1880, the theory was
widely accepted that Mr.. Charlie
Nicholson, the veteran CORE
spondent whom the Democrats
had hired-with Mr.. Raskob's
money-to Smear Hoover" was
more than anyone else RESPONSE
Bile for the Democratic congress
sional victory which signaled the
complete victory of 1882.
The Republicans. meanwhile,
had got themselves an able press
agent and for two or three years
the thousands of statements the
two press agents hurled at each
other were considered vital new
development in politics which as
sumed almost the Importance of
the campaigns themselves.
But Mr.. Nicholson, who is now
4 close counsellor to Jim Farley
and Emil Hurja, took the cream
of the political press agenting
business, which won't flourish
again until the country is ripe for
change.
A POLITICAL press agent is a
big success when he rides 2
winning horse and almost no use
at all with loser.
AS the depression deepened and
Tie country turned against Hoover
Democrats had much easier time
oashing i'll because Mr.. Nicholson
mad been so industriously turning
oIt statements of their politicians
which could be used in an "I.told.
ynu-sO" refrain.

GLAMOUR OF FOOTBALL DECEIVES
ITS CRITICS
(Bv BRUCE CATION

. Along about this time every year, earl-
est and well-intentioned people are apt 10
. become worried about the status OF college
football.
Week after week come the reports OF
gigantic crowds at college football games
The total figures on gate receipts look ike
- payments on the international debts. News
of the doings of the young athletes NIL the
front pages of the newspapers.
All of this, Jumped together, comes un-
8 der the heading of "overemphasls,' as II
70 is called. A game devised for the recrea-
ton of college students draws so much at
tention that in the minds of many people
it completely overshadows the regular
classroom activities. On the face OF 1t, 1t
looks like an extremely unhealthy sltua-
ton.
Yet there is a great deal Of loose talk
about this. Critics of big-time tootoall
grow Just about as mixed in their consld-
Grafton of values as do the minimizing
boosters. For it is not the fact that college
football draws big crowds and creates
black headlines that is wrong; it IS the
fact that in some institutions the respon-
sible authorities are carried off their feet
by enthusiasm for the sport, and let 1t take
precedence over the regular curriculum
both in their own minds and in the mines
of their students.
1t needs to be emphasized that young
sters in college, for all their effervescence
and high spirits, are pretty level-headed
lot. They are seldom really deceived by
the glamour of football.
They enjoy the game, as participants OF
as spectators; they enjoy the excitement,
the thrills and the publicity. But if they
get anything approaching the right kind
of leadership from their faculty, they
aren't apt to be deluded by it all.
1t is often true that the football coach
draws higher salary than any professor.
But that only parallels the situation in
other walks of life. Prize fighters make
more money than clergymen, movie actors
make more money than scientists, stock
promoters outearn doctors.
Our whole system of rewards is askew !;
football simply gives the college student
an object lesson in the fact before he
leaves the campus.
College football is overemphasized, to
5 be SIRE. But its very overemphasis is typi-
cal VI American life. The youngster at
Notre Dame, Michigan, Stanford, or Ala
bama is not nearly SO apt to be fooled by

Arden, n. c.
Nov. 7, 1884
Editor Times-News:
Dear Sir:
You have done this community
service today by printing a car
ltoon which points out that Huey
Long may be a presidential can
didate in 1886. That cartoon
ought to have been published in
every paper in the nation SO that
the entire population might be
warned of the Long menace. For
too many people refuse to take
Huey seriously; they look upon
him simply as a clown, probably
Ia vulgar one; as a denlagogue,
probably an INSCRIPTIONS one; as
a tyrant, but not dangerous
one for anybody except his enc
mics in Louisiana. In support of
the statement that Long is q pos
sible and a dangerous presidential
candidate, l submit the following
facts:
First, Some years ago, during
President Coolidge's administra-
ton, a picture of the president
and the then Governor Long ap-
peared in the New Orleans Times
Picayune. The heading under the
picture read "The President and
the Future President Of the Uni
ted States" Huey has frequently
made public statements to the eff
feet that he aspired to the presi-
dency.
Second. Rising from obscurity,
Long has become absolute dicta-
tor of Louisiana within less than
10 years. He has undisputed
sway over the legislative, execu-
tive and very largely judicial
departments Of government IN
that state.
Third, He had enough influence
in the last congress to get the
senate committee on petitions and
elections to refuse to give the
womens' committee of Louisiana
an opportunity to present evil
dence in proof of their sworn
charge against Long, that he and
his machine were guilty of fraud
and corruption in the conduct Of
Senator Overton's (Junior Sena-
tor of Louisiana) election activi-
ties.
Fourth, Although Huey con-
dennis the "new DEAL" he advo-
Gates political program very
much like it. which differs from
it mainly in being much more
and necesitating the ex-
penditure of many times more Of
public funds than has ever been
contemplated by the present adj
Fifth, Hardly a candidate for
office in Louisiana's neighboring
states but who fears the invading
Long sound trucks and a whirl-
wind campaign by the "Crawfish"
in support of an opponent. Look
how Mrs. Caraway was elected in
Sixth, And Huey obviously has

henchmen contribute heavily in

CAVALCADE is FA VORED TO WIN IN RICH ARLLNC
EXPERTS SEE
!! !D|SCOVERY
As THREAT

CHICAGO, July 13 UN.S0.
The position Of chief contender in
the $4,000 added Arlington
Classic, mile and a. quarter blue
ribbon event which will be de-
cided here tomorrow. is moving
away from Joseph E. Widener's
Peace Chance and going to Alfred
Gwynn Vanderbilt's Discovery.
Two conditions are held re-
sponsible for this shift-the re.
cent sparkling performances Of
Discovery IN the East in which he
trounced some prominent older
thoroughbreds, and the sudden
report from Arlington Park,
where Peace Chance Is quartered,
that the Widener representative
suffered an injury to his knee.
Following his sensational six
length score in the Belmont
Stakes, Peace Chance loomed as
the chief threat to Cavalcade's
claim of superiority in the three
year-old division. High Quest, re-
garded by Trainer Bob Smith Of
the Brookmeade Stable as good a
colt or better than Cavalcade,
finished second in the Belmont
Stakes, decisively vanquiShed.
This served to heighten interest
in Saturdays Classic in which
Cavalcade and Peace Chance were
expected to settle the question Of
superiority in a battle Of Titans.
Cavalcade Favored
Cavalcade, which has been
training excellently for tomorrow's
test, reigns the undiSputed favor.
ite but it now appears his chief
opposition will come from Dis
covery unless Peace Chances
knee heals sufficiently to keep his
potency intact.
High Quest, nominated earlier
for the event, will not start, &C.
cording to latest information and
the Brookmeade stable may send
its good performer, Good Goods,
into the contest as Cavalcade'S
running mate. Good Goods re.
Gently qualified in bang-up fash.
ion for the big run tomorrow.
Time Clock and Anarchy, other
Brookmeade eligibleS, are not ex-
pected to start.
Discovery is young Wander
bilt's only nominee for the rich
prize, the 21-year-old sportsman
putting his sole reliance in this
smashing son of Display. Like
wise, Peace Chance is Joseph E.
Widener's only eligible. Discov-
cry, although he trailed Caval-
cade in all their meetings this
year, has nevertheless shown
great Improvement with every ad-
ditional start.
In his most recent outings he
has been putting to shame some
of the most hono1ed veterans of
the turf with ridiculous ease. In
cluded among the vanquished is
Dark Secret, conqueror Of the
champion Equipoise last year.
Dark Secret failed to make the
slightest impression on the Van
derbilt three-year-old in their re-
cent meeting in the East.

Times Staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND, July 13.-Rained
out yesterday in the scheduled
opener Of a four.game series with
the Cleveland Indians, Manager
Cronin announced today he would
follow through" with his original
pitching assignments, beginning
with Lefty" Walter Stewart to-
day, Earl Whitehill tomorrow, and
Monte Weaver and Tommy
Thomas for Sundays double
header.
This arrangement, he said,
would enable him to begin with
General Alvin Crowder in next
Mondays game against the De-
troit Tigers at Detroit, which con.
test, incidentally, should help
Crowder in mind, if not body, as
it was in that city that the vet
eran turned in his first full nine
inning effort Of the campaign, the
last time the Griffs visited there.
CrOnin Confident
Cronin said today:
II really look for Stewart to
get us off to a winning start
against the Indians today, as
his past record shows he's
triumphed every time he's faced
'em this year. Then again, yes
terday'S day of rest helped him
a lot, as he had q fine OppOr-
tunity to get the kinks out of
his arm after the train ride
from Detroit"
The GriffS will be meeting an
other team in the throes of a
slump when they face the In
dians. This is shown by the rec
ords of Earl Averill, Joe Vosmik,
bad News Hale and Bill Knick-
erbocker.
Averill, as example No. /,
chalked up but one hit in his
last % times at bat. Vosmik,
although only recently back in
the game since recovering from
a leg injury, hasn't collected a
hit in 13 trips to the plate, while
Hale and Knickerbocker have
played as poor a game as any
pair Of infielderS could.
Touching on the pitching a bit,
only Oral Hildebrand, who hurls
today, has looked good in recent
weeks, while Mel Harder has been
the lone other finger who has
been able to turn in anything
like an acceptable effort on the
mound.
The Griffs, however, plan not to
take JohnSon'S team too lightly.
They've taken this stand follow.
ing a recent series against Phila-
delphia. which found the GriffS
coping the first two games easily,
but dropping the next two by wide
margins.
Cronin said:
'It's got to the point where
we can't figure any foe too
lightly now, as it seems every
team gives us o run for the
money. Still, If we receive good
pitching in this series we should
walk away with q couple Of vic
