Sent Up the Ohio River

Then Chick was sent to the Reds and a year later Sidney Well paid out some more cash to Messrs. Hickey and Breadon, and Bottom ley joined him again.
 For three years they rooned to- gether, bunked across the train aisles, consoled each other about being sent from a world series club to a last-place club. At this point MacPhail entered the picture again. Chick was down with a bad cold at the time and when he said he wanted to go back to California to get over it, MacPhail pointed to the number of people who get over colds in Cincinnati. So Chick went anyway, and MacPhail had him suspended.
 Thus Jim was left almost alone All those brash youngsters that are over-running the Reds renaissance lineup are of different baseball generation. His only consolation is that MacPhail has picked up, late ly. two comparative old-timers, Xix! Cuyler and Babe Herman. Jim car discuss remember whens" with these two, and after you've had g dozen years in the league it seem: this is one of the real pleasures oi the game.

 INFORMATION
Brother of Local Official / Prominent Minister
 in Dallas

A. A. Andrews of Dallas, Texas, attended the Shriners' ceremonial last night where he met Attorney General James s. Truitt, and dis covered that his friend Dr. George w. Truitt, one of the outstanding ministers of Dallas, is a brother Of the local Territorial official.
 MT Andrews, who came to Juneau as the personal representative of Gov. James " Alfred of Texas, to invite Gov. John w. Troy to attend the Texas Centennial Central Expo sition at Dallas in 1886, stated that he is enjoying his first visit to Alas ka very much. He hopes that many Alaskans will attend the Dallas Ex- position.
 "!Six flags have flown over Texas" Andrews said, ''The flags of France, Spain, Mexico, Texas, the United States and the Confederate States i the Stars and Stripes since 1865 The color of these flags has not faded-Texas is color itself. The Texas Centennial Central Exposition will be just as colorful as the flags that have flown over her 265,86s { square miles of beauty"

scared high at the start of the race but not long after a series of un- fortunate breaks dogged the team and it slipped down the ladder.
 It all began when Bill Knicker- booker was stricken with appendi- citis and was lost to the club for over six weeks. Joe Vosmik and Earl Averill, the two best outfield- CTS; Frank Pytlak, the first string catcher; Monte Pearson, Oral Hide brand, Clint Brown, Willis Hudlin, all starting pitchers; and Bruce Campbell have been on the side lines for extended stays at some time or other during the current season. No club in the American league has had any such misfor- tune in respect to injuries.
 The wonder of it all is that John son accomplished as much as he did. All the time Johnson took all the bad breaks without a whimper just as he had done in the past.
 It seems a pity that one who had played the game so fairly and so well has failure ringing in his ears. Walter Johnson deserved a kinder fate.

By JAMES E. REsToN
(By The Associated Press)

James LeRoy Bottomley, who is known as Sunny Jim" around the National league, isn't very sunny these days.
 That is due to various reasons. First, he squabbled with Larry MacPhail general manager of the Cincinnati Reds. That was during spring training. So MacPhail told him to go to Nokomis, or some where like that, and Jim did.
 When he got to Nokomis, he found his wife severely ill, so he decided to forget about baseball and stay in this little Illinois town and take care of her. But Mac Phail discovered in the meantime that maybe he couldn't get along very well without Bottomley, and Jim was eager to be back about that time, so they settled their dif- ferences.
 Jim got away to a good start. He was the anchor man of the Reds young infield, until he contracted lumbago, which reduced his activity to sun-bath on the roof of the grandstand each morning.
 But What 4 Roomie!
 The other doleful details of this tale are that Jim's mother fell sev- eral weeks ago and has been laid up ever since. And then, to top it all, Jim lost his roommate.
 With so many other things to worry about, you wouldn't think he'd worry very much about the loss of roommate. But with Jim Chick Hafey wasn't just another roofning assignment.
 In 1922, Jim's first year as a reg ular with the Cards, Hafey was brought into the Cardinal chain The following year Chick started at Houston but was brought back to St. Louis in the middle of the year, so for six years then they played together-four times they were in the world series.

N In all the 28 years Walter John son toiled in the baseball vineyard he enjoyed few good breaks. His debut into the big leagues on August 2, 1907, was marked with defeat at the hands of the Detroit Tigers by a score of 3 to 2.
 Johnson spent the greater part of his career with a team that never figured in the pennant race and it was not until the twilight of his pitching days that he managed to take part in the classic which is the dream of all major leaguers- the world series.
 It was in his 17th season with the Washington Senators that his chance to take the mound in the big fall series finally came along, and then he was not able to do himself justice.
 He spent his entire playing ca Areer of 20 years in the majors with the Senators and with little help from his teammates hung up record on the mound that insures him lasting place among the games immortals. The end of his career as an active player was hastened when his leg was broken by 'batted ball. He played his last game of baseball in 1927 and became manager of the Newark team of the International league in Sl928.

DECLINE OF COFFEE

IF you happen to be the average American
coffe drinker you drank less coffee last
year than in the year before-some Is cups
less, to be exact. This IS on the word of the
New York Coffee and Sugar Exchange, which
has Just finished survey showing that the
consumption of coffee in the United States
fell of during 1e34-which, by the way, was
the first full year Of repeal
Now there are two possible explanations
of this fact, neither of them. to our notion,
worth a great deal.
You might say that lot of people who
used to drink coffee are now drinking alco-
holic beverages. and that that is why coffee
consumption has dropped. Or-remelnber-
ing the desperate way in which a man gropes
for lots of black coffee on the morning after
a thorough bender-you could argue that the
decline in coffee consumption last year re-
fleets a similar decline in the drinking Of hard
liquor.
AS We say. We don't think much Of either
explanation.

TELEPHONE INQUIRY

ONCE its creation last summer, the Federal
~ Communications Commission has been
without funds to conduct the investigation
which Congress ordered it to make into the af-
fairs of the telephone monopoly
Meanwhile, the American Telephone & Tel
graph Company officials repeatedly have Of
fered to furnish the commission with any in
formation it may seek. While this enlight-
ened self-interest Of the A. T. g. T. officials is
conmendable the commission properly has
preferred to employ its own accountants and
investigators.
The commission can start its telephone
work when Congress acts on the Wheeler
Rayburn resolution authorizing s75oOOo for
the inquiry. Commissioner Walerk, chairman
of the telephone division, said that amount
was not enough for complete audit Of the
telephone SYSTEMS books, but should prove
sufficient to unearth most Of the basic facts
needed to guide Congress in future telephone
control legislation
No member Of Congress who really wants
the commission to do a good job will oppose
the resolution.

JUDGES COMMENDED FOR
MOVES TO CLEAR COURTS
Bv william NJ. McMastsr.

was interested in your articles
concerning the conditions around
and about the Municipal Criminal
Courts. These conditions are not
new but have been known to the
bar and the public generally for a
long time.
Some time ago when there was
vacancy in the criminal division f
the Municipal Court which, under
the law, was to be filled by DEM
ocrat I visited Gov. McNutt and
recommended for the place a lawyer
whom I knew not only to be well
qualified but who had worked out
definite program to correct and
avoid the conditions which are
brought to public attention. I was
sorry that the Governor could not
find it expedient to follow my
recommendation because it meant
the loss to the community Of most
admirable program for the cor
rection of the many evil practices
engaged in about the police court.
I am glad that the judges Of the
Municipal Court, in response to an
organized protest by lawyers, are
now assuming a responsibility in the
matter Of the wrongful practices
that have been so openly engaged
in in the very corridors of their
courts. They are to be commended
for their recent order and it is to be
hoped that this start will be the be-
ginning Of definite and compre-
hensive program to correct the

POOR WOULD BENEFIT
UNDER EXEMPTION LAW

By C. NJ. Scott.
If I am not badly mistaken the
first week the state assembly con-
vened, one Of our Representatives
indicated that he would put a law
through TO exempt home property
under $4,000 Why not put a law
through to exempt property $500
or under and give the common
working man a chance to save and
get home?
Why can't we have a law passed
now and then to help the little
fellow who has to work every day
for a small wage? Our Governor
sure helped us when he gave us
another year to pay our taxes which
are in arrears. I would like to
know why an exemption law Of this
kind couldn't be put through and
give the Woodworking people a
new deal or chance to have a
home? This kind Of an exemption
law would reduce house rent for
the benefit of the poor.

NeW Deal Is Raped

need it worse than they do now.
Why not use some of the money
that is being spent for unneces-
sary work and start industries and
put people to work? Wouldn't
it be much more sensible to have
our industries running and let
supply and demand take care of
everything than waste the money
on grubbing bushes for starVa-
ton wages?
Times will get no better under
such conditions. Labor made the
wealth of the country. Nov labor
is kicked out and called indi-
gents. People have been very pa
tent considering what they have
gone through.
see in a Shelbyville paper
where the new council is talk
ing of passing an ordinance pro-
hibiting house-to-house peddling.
Why in the world don't they stop
the farmers and people from other
towns coming in and taking the
work while the home town peo-
pie walk the streets and are eX-
pected to pay the taxes to keep
up the town? Then they have the
nerve to tell you to boost your
home town. The next time you
vote, stop, look, and listen.

Sixty-one per cent of the prop
