The W. rld
At a Glance
BY LESLIE EICHEL
Central Press Staff Writer

NEW YORK, July 20. Those
who are crying AGAINST huge
government expenditures" and the
unbalanced budget may BE- crying
FOR them next year. That Is the
opinion Of several economists. Those
economists are not in favor Of huge
expenditures, but they r trying TO
visualize the future.
They are Of the opinion that TWO
courses, ard only two courses, are
possible.
/. Expenditures for a large number
OF legitimate projects, and al stand
ard pay, or
2. Cooperative operation OF all in
dustry and agriculture.
These men argue that a midway
course would fritter away billions
with little beneficial result except to
pile up debt.
No. ] plan might give the present
~capitalistic system the necessary
printing through purchasing power
TO put 1t back On its feet Cbut with
consequent heavy taxation)
NO. 2 plan would lead to pure So
etalism with consequent absorption
Of large earnings for the benefit Of
the state)
The present course seems TO be
midway. The danger TO the present
method, according to these econo-
mists, lies In the hopelessnesS that
Is likely TO accrue. And with hope
lessness often comes needless action.
Constitutional Amendment
There seems little doubt that the
Roosevelt administration will seek a
constitutional amendment to prevent
federal courts, including the supreme
court, from multiplying acts OF con-
gress.
There is nothing in the constitu-
don that gives the courts this power
neither Is there anything definite
opposing 1t. John Marshall, who as
chief justice OF the u. S. supreme
court became a virtual dictator as TO
laws, had established the precedent
BY the time OF his death in 1885. The
federal courts since then have added
constantly TO their power, self-dele-
gated, to set laws aside.
Probably the decision that set the
New Dealers back more than any
other except the NRA and AAA
blows was the one by a U. S. circuit
court IN Cincinnati that the federal
government could not condemn land
IN Louisville for slum re = walls. Even
BY the payment Of reasonable sums
and government payments have beer

cision. take the land even for con-
structive purposes. even though ii
would enhance adjoining property
values.
But the nub Of this decision Is con-
tanned in the implied warning Cby

Oil Again
California threatens TO make a

When It seemed evident that
Governor Merriam would sign the
Burns bill granting Standard Oh a
monopoly over what Is termed the
greatest oil pool In America" a start
was made for signatures for a state

task, as 10000 signatures are re-
Quired to force a referendum.

ball in this sector was that it
didn't have any schedules.
There were a couple Of right
handy teams claiming this as
their home, but they weren't
playing anybody that you'd
look out the window to see.
Looking to Basketball
What George Washington has
done in the interim to cure
that, need not be recounted
here. Suffice it to say the Colo
mails went after football in a big
way, toned up their schedules
from year to year, forced their
local competition to take back
seats and generally took charge
of the D. c. grid situation.
Now, the question arises as to
whether Pixlee is going to
move in" on the local basket
ball territory. It appears On the
surface that might be his aim.
He has secured a basketball
reputation man in Reinhart, who
will also coach the G.. w. foot
ball backfield as we'll as teach
in the physical education de.
partment. This fellow Pixlee,
you know, works silently, but
determinedly.

AL Lopez will do most of the
catching, meaning that most of
the catching will be topnotch.
They overworked the young man
last year, owing to the fact that
Clyde Sukeforth couldn't hit a

I fear Fred Mass, listed as
free agent, won't stick.
The outfield is still Koenecke,
Dan Taylor, Ralph Boyle and a
singular young man from the

from Sacramento. It is my
opinion the latter is either going
to be very good or very terrible.
He hit for the White Sox but
the latter wouldn't pay the pro-
visional price. He has hit down
here and he looks like quite a
man on the bases. More than
that, he's not at all surprised. He
seems to be the Dizzy Dean of
the outfieldS.
They still have Glenn Chap

By DAVIS J. WALSH
ORLANDO, Fla, March 81.
Mr.. Charles D. "Casey" Stengel,
of the Brooklyn ball club,
likes to kid himself. But more
than that, he has to kid the club.
With his agile mind and adroit
tongue, it may finish at the head
of the second division. It's just
another fair National League club
and there's too many of that kind
already needing a trustworthy
southpaW pitcher. You'll have to
pardon Mr.. Stengel when he
speaks thus:
Frey, at shOrtstOp, was an ex.
pertinent last year. He's now one
of the best young infielders in
baseball. We didn't know about
KOenecke in center field at this
time last year. Look at him now;
he's established. Sam Leslie, at
first base, always a hitter, is i'm
proving with every game at first
base. He couldn't learn to play
the bag while sitting on the
Giants bench, could he?
REGAINING FORM
81 got an old club dumped in
my lap last spring. I now have
a young club. Strip, at third,
and CuccinelIO, at second base,
are young men. The latter has
come back tremendously down
here and is suddenly fast. He
seems to feel the tempo of che
camp"
Nevertheless, it is pretty much

"Huh!" / thinks to myself,
"Jim isn't absenting himself all
this time for scenery. That
rascal is up to something

During Jim'S absence the
rumor spread through Wash
ington that Dick Hanley, the
erstwhile Northwestern coach,
was coming down to Washing
ton to take Pixlee's job; but
that report didn't ring true, yet
1t seemed funny that Pixlee
had abdicated so suddenly,
once the local football season
was over.

"Jim isn't out there just

to myself. "He's up to some
thing. Might schedule Wash

those big-time Western teams!"
Well, time has a way of heal
ing all these speculations and
uncertainties, and time has GER
tainly cleared up the case Of
Jim Pixlee and his sudden dis
appearance from washington
last December.
Because Pixlee walked right
into this bureau with his expla-
nation and reason for his pro-
1onged absence which straddled
the old and the new year.
It was Little Bill Reinhart,
the pint-and-a-half tutor who is
going to do some severe doubling
in brass, yes and tripling, too,
around George WaShington'S
athletic department starting
when the golden rod blooms.
Pixlee is bringing Reinhart to

of Oregon as an earnest of his
faith in the future Of collegiate
basketball around washington.

having double vision.

OPEN TOURNEY
SATURDAY

Few bowlerS whose names grace
the Who's Who in bowling will
be among the IL teams that have
been honored to open the eighth
annual National Duck Pin Bowl
ing Congress tournament which
starts Saturday at the Arcadia,
yet the first nights attractions
will not be lacking in shooters
who on occasions have turned in
sensational scores.
Washington will have seven
teamS competing among the four
cities whose bowlers will start the
ball a-rollin'. Norfolk will have
two teams, Baltimore one, while
probably the most conspicuous
will be the Carolina Bowling Club,
Raleigh's first national entry.
Paul Harrison Rolls
Henry Hiser's Motion Picture
League crew is the only nearby
suburban team among the first

On Wednesday he outsmarted

and the next night he received
the nod over Bernie Perry,
Washington Boys Club, in a five

AS if this wasn't enough strain
on his sturdy young body, an
hour before weighing in WedneS-

Cappola was originally the

The boy made such an impressive

keep the boy at least until May Is.
Two Indians on Shelf
Walter the Lion-hearted spread
his ample hands in a deprecatory
gesture.
The gnarled fingers that ruled
the pitching hill when Washing
ton was first in war, first in peace
but in the second division Of the
American League brushed circum-
stance aside. A smile, slow and
wan played over his rugged fea-
lures.
Walter the Lion-hearted is the
one and only Walter johnson,
probably the greatest pitcher of
all time, and certainly the greatest
hurler ever to wear the uniform
of Washington.
Now he is manager Of the Cleve-
land Indians who open a two
game series with the Griffs here
today. Popular here as every
where he goes, Johnson will be
the guest of honor tonight at a

no other club ever had two men
down with appendicitis at the
same time. Well, we always
believed in making records"
A smile played around his lips.
''You can't discount q player
like KnickerbOcker," johnson
said. "He means a great deal to
our ball club. Maybe he will
mean the pennant. But as long
as this thing had to happen,
I'm glad it happened this

"YOu see, everyone knows
that Knickerbocker is a star"

"And there's another reason,
too. We have Roy Hughes, who
