GRIFFMEN
GRIST
BY FRANK BUCK O'NEILL


Mickey Cochrane, who was
struck on the left instep by foul
tip off Powell's bat, hopes to re-
turn to the lineup in a few days.
Cochrane telegraphed your agent
this morning saying:
"Win have foot x-Eayed today.
Opinion Of physician foot mot
broken. viii be back in .
couple Of days 1 hope.
MICKEY"
"WeT win anyway" COch-
rane said before he boarded the
train last night for Philadel-
phia. 81 suppose we have some
hard luck coming, but I GER
tainly do not want to be injured
now. It's bad enough to have
Greenberg OuttOf the game, al
though Burns will do q swell
job at first base"
The first phase of the Western
invasion fails to establish any
power west Of the AlleghanieS.
The Tigers won the only victory
in the first West VS.. East brush.
And do those Yankees look like
ready money right now? They
certainly poured the grief on
Cleveland.
Charley Gehringer hit late at
a Speeder in the first frame and
sliced q double into left field. In
the third inning with the bases
loaded and one out, he hit into
a double play.
Newsom had a lot Of fun with
AL Simmons. The first time AL
went to bat, he struck out. The
second time up he slapped one
back at NewSom, who patted the
ball before making his throw.
There was nothing unearned
about Washington's run in the
fourth. Dee Miles hit the right
field fence for a triple and scored
on a slow roller by Buddy Lewis.
Kuhel made a nice catch of
a foul fly by Burns in the fourth
inning, but he muffed a throw
by Travis in the fifth, which
he should have caught. The error
was charged officially to Travis.
Goslin muffed Travis fly in the
last of the sixth, the hitter getting
credit for a double. That's one
way to reach the $50 mark.

Man Rules All Living Things But Himself

Sydney Heads, Australia in April, 1886 Weight,
1,036 pounds; length, 13 feet 10 inches.
You see pictures of big game hunters, stand
ing over dead lion or a dead gorilla-either Of
which would have torn the hunter to pieces
if the hunter had not had gun.
But mans intelligence invented the gun, and
before that the bow and arrow, and before that,
spears and knives fashioned from Clipped stone.
Mans intelligence has fulfilled the prophecy in
Genesis:
80 God created man in His own image
male and female created He them. And God
blessed them and God said unto them, BE fruit
full and multiply, and replenish the EARTH and
subdue it; and have dominion over the fish OF
the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over
every living thing that moveth upon the earth
Mans intelligence has given him dominion
cover every living thing" except man HIM
SELF. Man invented spears knives, arrows,
sling shots to enable him to kill animals for food
Then as man grew "clvillzed, =" he invented
gunpowder that he might kill other men. So to-
day, science works in Neutrality-suspicious. shifts,
perfecting more murder machines, to kill, not
animals but MEN
Mans intelligence has strayed into the path
of mans own destruction. But scientists have
begun to rebel against this misuse of their in
ventive genius for the destruction of man. Read
these impassioned pleas from scientists meeting
at Blackpoo in England.
Professor J. c. Philip brilliant president Of
the chemical section of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science, said:
'Tmpelled by patriotic motives, most scientists
have put themselves at the disposal of the State
in time of need But many are hesitating to
admit that patriotism must always override con-
sideration of humanity. They are increasingly
impatient at the extent to which their knowledge
is made to serve inhuman ends. It is time for
chemists and scientists in general to throw their
weight into the scale against the tendencies now
dragging science and civilization down and de-
basing our heritage of intellectual and spiritual
values
Men Of intelligence, men of science, must band
together, pool their knowledge and their influ-
ence, and say to mankind "That way lies Death
and destruction. STOP TURN BACK"
But will mankind listen to the voice of inteli-
gence, or will men forever follow eloquent men
not speaking the truth"7
If man is to extend his dominion over himself
then must listen to the voice of INTELLI-
GENCE.

Iwhen the evening comes. Softly
the shade slants westward from
the pines.
The grasses fuse from gilt to
ashy pink, from pink to lilac, then
to cinnamon. The pines are shafts
of darkness. Through tn cir
trunks the lower brush burns
clear, unearthly green.
A small wind rustles through
the tawny fern the poplars
tremble like shaken flame
The shadows pour, wine ruddy,

Across the west, there lies one
crimson bar.
Then suddenly, there is no light
at all. Only blue dusk, as soft
and thick as down, blurring the
lines of rocks and trees and hills
And, from the dusk, the owls
first booming call
And, in the sky, the first, white,
wavering star.
