Of Dough YGDkey
Gaze For Joe CrOnin
By BILL CoRUM

that as friends and associates of
the. golden boy, they should be
cut in on Mr.. Yawkey'S sweet
potatoes.
Don't sully Friendship
This also causes Mr.. Griffith
deep grief. It makes him feel
almost as If money is a nui-
sance. If it is, of course, he is
still willing to be annoyed, but
he does feel that his players
shouldn't trade on their friend.
ship for their exmanager. In.
deed, he is thinking of writing
each of them a letter in which
he will point out that friend
ship is too fine a thing to be
Sullied with sordid commercial
ism.
One gets the impression that
"Griff" is still just a little awed
by the magnitude Of the Cronin
deal-the richest in all the
history of baseball, dwarfing
even the $4,000 which Colonel
Rupert and Huston spent in
acquiring Babe Ruth from the
Red Sox.
Incidentally, we talked to
Griffith and his old-and-new
manager, Bucky Harris, about
Babe and the strange situation
in which he finds himself in
baseball.
Both agreed that while it
seemed strange that he should
be allowed to get out of the
American League, they didn't
see how any A. L. club could
refuse waivers on him If any
National League team wanted
him as manager. They felt that
any club that tried to block his
transfer to the older circuit
would be ridiculed for its dog
in-the-manger attitude.
Sensible Men
This didn't surprise me, since
it makes sense and I knew
Griffith and Harris to be
sensible men. Babe has made
too many dollars for the own
ers of the American League
for any one of them to block
his advancement, when that
opportunity presents itself. as
it will.
What did surprise me was
Harris's attitude toward Tom
Yawkey. You wouldn't expect
a fellow to be enthusiastic
about a man who has fired
him. And particularly when it
looked as though his showing
with the Boston team had clear
ly entitled him to another year
as manager. But Bucky Harris
is sincerely enthusiastic about
Yawkey. And enthusiastic about
him both as a man and as
team owner.
Baseball got the greatest
break it has had in years." said
Harris, when that man bought
the Red SOx. He is willing to
60 any length to give the BOs-
ton fans a winner and, of
course, he is going to succeed"

Loses to Humphrey

the brilliant efforts of Klaben, A.

but the latter managed II points

meaning that it was going to take
a few more games before every
man clicked on all cylinders.
To be sure, Eastern did not look
so impressive against Central last
week. The team gathered itself
comfortable lead at the start,
but this was continually whitfield
down by a determined Central
five.
Need Confidence
It is Coach Guyon's idea to get
his men away from these type Of
contests. He realizes it's going
to be difficult with the race such
a tumble this year. but mes con-
fident the team will get into the
momentum expected of 1t, partic-
ularly if the new men gain the
confidence they need.
Buddy Shaner, center; Chick
Holhdge, Fred Scheible. and
Bucky Buchholz, forwards, are
these newcomers. They have not
become polished in their play as
yet.
The youngsters pack plenty of
promise, however. Buddy Shaner,
in particular, looks like the an.
swer to Guyon'S prayer for cen
ter while Hollidge and Scheible
give indications of developing into
crack forwards.
Eastern plays Western today at
the Roosevelt gymnasium at $3.50
o'clock and quite as last week
when Central was met, a deter
mined foe will be faced. Central
meets Roosevelt on the Tech floor
in the other game today.
Western Dangerous

GUS Western five today in that
the Moore-coached team has de-
veloped at fast clip this sea-

eral outside games. The George
towners have one particular
player of note in Joe Brennan,
young forward, who Is mighty
fine scorer. Joe HanleN too, ap-
pears to be a capable centre and
good point scorer.
The Central Roosevelt contest
will be one where each team will
be striving to get into the win
ming column for the first time
in the series. Both gave indica-
tions of making trouble for all
opponents in their engagements
last week against Eastern and
Tech. respectively, and today
should find the pair playing an
unusually interesting game for

Emory and Henry Colleges five

lonials on the H Street court at
8 o'clock. The Wasps will be out
for their eighth straight win of
the current campaign, having an.
nexed No. 7 last night at Catho-
lie University's expense. This was
their forty-fifth triumph in At
contests over a span of two years.
George Washington, seeking its
eighth victory in 10 games, will
pin its hopes largely on Hal Kie-
sci, elongated center, who will be
assigned the task of stopping the
giant Wasp pivot man, Capt.
Glenn Roberts. The latter was a
star in Emory and Henry's con-
quest Of the Cardinals and fig
ures to give the Colonial stap-off

Rosap registered 13 points, ac-
counting for four baskets from
the floor and five goals from the
foul line out of eight tries. Fox
also rang up 13 points for Tenn
pie. five baskets from the floor
and three from the foul line.
Ed Hargaden was Georgetown's
star. The great Hoya player &C
counted for II points, six through
the medium of goals from floor
and five points after fouls. He
and Joe Corless, who scored seven
points, kept Georgetown from be-
ing too badly defeated.
Temple used II men against
Georgetown, among them Dave
Smukler, football star.
c. U. did pretty we'll from the
foul line against the great Wasp
team from Emory and Henry, but
fell down badly in the matter of

JURY GIGGLES OVER
DEFENSE WITNESS
'YES-N0' ANSWER
DOWNRIGHT. 1885. by United Press)

Copyright. 1885. by United Press)
PENNINGTON, N. j., Feb. g.
The Bruno Richard Hauptmann
jury u~nconsciously has revealed its
attitude concerning at least part
of the testimony for and against
the stolid carpenter charged with
numbering the Lindbergh baby.
The jury had q dinner party
last night behind screens in the
dining room of the Union Hotel,
in honor of the birthday of Mrs.
Sue R. Dis, Jail matron and one
of its guardians. Frequent audible
remarks drifted over the screens
to other diners, and frequent gales
of laughter.
A voice was heard raised in a
question.
The reply clear and sharp:
Il wouldn't say yes and l
wouldn't say no."
Hearty laughter followed. The
eight men and four women who
will decide whether Hauptmann is
guilty of the most brutal crime of
the generation, apparently were
highly amused.
The sally was the oft-repeated
remark of Peter H. Sommer, one
of the defense's star alibi wit
nesses.

Primarily a health measure. the
powers set forth in the bill will be
administered by the Division of
Public Health under the Depart
ment of Commerce and Industry.
In a joint meeting of the Natural
Resources Committees of the House
and Senate yesterday, Virgil NJ.
Simmons, Conservation Commits
sioner, presented a draft of the bill
and explained its purposes.
"Our present laws are inadequate
to end this pollution evil" he said.
While we can get an order for a
city or an industry to correct or
abate pollution, we have no legal
way to enforce the order. This
measure would give the state the
power needed to protect public
health and clean up our waters so
that livestock may drink without
danger and fish life may exist.
I'VE will act on the presumption
that persons or cities or industries
that poison streams should pay to
restore them to their natural con-
dition, but it certainly is not the
purpose of this measure to drive
industries from the state or place
an undue burden on the citizens of
any municipal corporation"
1t was explained that the power
to set pollution standards and en-
force provisions of the proposed act
had been placed under the Division
Of Public Health because of the
laboratory facilities of the division
in testing for wastes and pcisons,
and because the protection Of public
health is the most important con-
Sideration.
The bill has the backing OF the
Conservation Committee, a group OF

Court to regulate the practice OF
