BY PAT ROBINSON

Judging by recent events, some
Of our more astute baseball prog.
noSticators may have to eat their
predictions unsalted before Oc-
tober rolls around.
Crawling out on a limb Is q
hazardous pursuit at any time
but particularly foolhardy at the
start of a season for many q
training camp Ty Cobb becomes
just another Joe Glutz some
where west of Peoria before June
Some Of the boys, for instance,
said Connie Mack'S outfit would
be lucky to finish in the Ameri
can League, and on what the AZ
showed down South, that seemed
a fair estimate Of their worth
But Old Connie may fool them
Ball players insist he has q
pretty fair club: Thursday the
old man uncovered Harry Kelley
a rookie good enough to trim the
Red Sox with three hits and yes
terday he covered Dusty
Rhodes who breezed to a 81
victory with eight hits.
Hit Marcum
The AS scored all their runs
off Marcum in the first heat, q
fact which must have given Con
ME a few chuckleS, for the Sox
gave Connie a satchelful of bank
notes for Marcum and handed
him Rhodes on a platter.
Despite all their high-priced
talent, the Sox must get pitching
to stay near the top. They are
sure to get it from Grove and Fer
rell but they have yet to prove the
others are good enough to win con-
Sistently.
The Dodgers also may cause a
few hasty reviSions of opinion.
Casey Stengel has good pitching,
If he has nothing else, a fact
which the Giants will readily ad-
nit. Big Van Mungo made it two
in a row for the Dodgers over the
Giants by tanning eight of them,
giving eight scattered hits and
winning 8 too.
Lon Warneke, the Cubs prob
lem child, set the clubs fears
about his arm at rest, when he
held the Pirates to seven hits
while his mates pounded Blanton
and successors for a 81 decision.
Bees Come Through
The Bees are still another team
who will be tougher than rated.
They may finish last, and prob
ably will, but they will not be dis
graced. at least not so long as they
can get a veteran like Danny Mac
Fayden to hold the Phils to six
hits as he did yesterday. The
Bees got 10 hits off Curt Davis
and JorgenS to win 4 to /.
With Averill and TroSky hitting
for the circuit, Mel Harder had
little trouble giving the Indians a
60 verdict over the White Sox.
Rajah Hornsby probably is
moaning low these days. He is
getting enough hitting to win al
most any game but his pitching
has been the worst in either
league. The Browns made ten
hits, including a homer by Bell,
off Bridges but the Tigers wallop-
ed a trio Of Hornsby's alleged
throWerS for an easy 8 to 3 count.
If the Rajah can't dig up some
pitching. he, and not Mack, will
wind up in the basement.

ANNAPOLIS, April 25.-With a
program of moderate interest here
today, Annapolitan sport follow
ers will direct their chief attention
to the performances of two of
their teams on other fields.
The local contingent has keen
interest in the lacrosse game
which will be played between ST..
Johns and Maryland at College
Park. The contest is regarded as
a test of whether st. Johns is to
maintain the standard it reached
under the coaching of Dinty
Moore, now the Navy mentor.
Moore has been succeeded at
st. Johns by John Donohoe, who
played under Moore only last
year, and the friends of the col
lege feel sure that he will con-
tinue to develop winning teams at
the college of Is students which
has produced national champions
in the sport. The probable lineup:

The lacrosse game with Syracuse
was expected to lend interest
to the home program today,
but its defeat by the Army,
by 8 to /, stamps it as below
the standard of Orange teams.
Thus the chief interest in the con-
test will be a comparison of scores
with that made by the Army
against the same team.
Other events at Annapolis will
be baseball with Lafayette, golf
with Georgetown, and tennis with
Swarthmore, while the plebe nine
will meet Mckinley High, of Wash
ington.

TO TREAT
GRAIN FOR FARMERS

Many local elevators in western
and northwestern Minnesota viii
treat grain for farmers this spring
to aid in the control of smut and
other seed-borne diseases, reports
r. c. Rose, extension plant disease
specialist, University Farm, St.
Paul.
Forty-four such elevators in
stalled seed treating machinery
last spring, treating total of more
than 100000 bushels for their pa
irons, he says. Others have signi-
fled their intention of putting in
such equipment this year.
Although the farmer, If he
wishes, can treat his own seed
grain, 1t costs him but little to have
1t treated at the elevator, and the
service saves him much inconveni-
ence. Most Of the elevators charge
only three cents per bushel to treat
seed, and of this amount IN to 2
cents per bushel represents the cost
of material.
New Improved Ceresan is now
recommended in preference to cop
per carbonate or formaldehyde, Mr..
Rose says, because it controls seed
ling blights more effectively than
other fungicides.

The capitals of Europe resound

that the statesmen who are guild

toward removing the irritations
that threaten to break out into OPP

Germans to do so.
Much of the unrest and irritation
that has plagued Europe since the
Armistice may be ascribed to the
Treaty of Versailles, which was

German people upon whom it was

Free Speech
Quite a number Of good Ameri-
cans have shown indignation over
the fact that Earl Browder, secre-
tary of the Communist Party, was
allowed to broadcast speech on
his party's principles the other day
Many more American citizens have
got all worked up over the fact
that some schools and colleges ac-
tually try to explain to their stud
ents the principles Of Communism
along with the principles of other
forms of government, including our
own.
One of the prime principles OF
Americanism Is the right of every
body to speak freely on any sub
ject. Another American principle is
that everybody should understand
as much as possible about his own
government-and others. If we are
afraid that Communism or any
other "ism" Is so alluring that most
