is more explicitly stated by the Chief
Executive than ever before. In 1896,
for example, the President went to
Nebraska and Endorsed Senator George
w. Norris for e-election-slthough
the Democrats had put forward regu-
larly nominated candidate for the
Senate. Norris. however, in the past
had been nominated as a Republican
and had given his support to President
Roosevelt against the Republican party
nominee for President. He was rum
ming as an independent"
Back in 1884, President Roosevelt
had kind word to say for Senator
Bob" La Toilette. who was seeking
reelection in 1884. La Toilette was
a candidate on the new Progressive
party ticket. The Democrats had
nominated John NJ. Callahan and
Callahan received more votes than
did the Republican nominee that year
Party Men Troubled.
Regular Democratic party men are
considerably worried over this atti-
tude Of the President. The Demo-
cratic Congressional Committee has

all regularly nominated Democrats in
the contests for House seats. Chair
man James A. Farley of the Demo-

along with the President in the lat
ters effort to eliminate Senator Mil
lard Tydings of Maryland. That is.
Mr.. Farley is supporting, along with
the President. Representative Lewis,
the New Deals candidate for the
Democratic senatorial nomination.
Whether the Democratic chairman
could ever bring himself to campaign
for a Republican senatorial nominee
against Senator Tydings. in the event
Tydings wins the Democratic nomi-

The Presidents invasion of Maryland
yesterday in support of Representative
Lewis against Senator Tydings is
another test of Mr.. Roosevelt's ability
to tell the Democratic voters of

of Maryland have in the past sup

If they leave him now and renominate
Senator Tydings, 1t may be easier for
them to leave Mr.. Roosevelt again in
the future. That is the danger which
the President runs in every State

States do not follow him now, they
may not follow him when he seeks
to have himself renominated-if he
does-or when he seeks to dictate who

RACING PLANTS

BALTIMORE, July 6.-The one
per cent increase in the betting
take" granted to the Maryland
State race tracks, Havre de Grace,
Laurel, Pimlico and Bowie, will
benefit the plants anywhere from
$250,00O to 100000 a year, with
Pimlico receiving approximately
100000.
The grant was made when Off
cials of the track signed an agree
ment to improve "the quality Of

to improve facilities for the COM
fort and convience Of the general
public, the working force en-
ployed on the tracks, and the
horSemen who contribute so much
to the success of any meeting"
The increased per cent "take"
will give the track cut 81a per
cent. However, the tracks, in turn,
must pay the regular l per cent
State tax. Breakage will remain
on the dime" thus assuring the
tracks approximately another ~

In contrast with other States,

takes 10 per cent, and Florida de-

Included in the agreement, the

YANKS 7-1O TO COP PElNNANT |
ALL-NEW Y 0 RK
WORLD SERIES
STILL FAVORED
BY LAWTON CARVER

International News Service Sports Editor
NEW YORK, July GN.S0
While some of New York's baseball,
experts admittedly detect ominous
signs of a collapse in the all-New
York world series which has pre-
vailed for two straight seasons,
Broadway Jack Doyle, the betting
commissioner, steadfastly clings to
the notion that it again will be a
shuttle between the Yankee Sta
dium and the Polo Grounds next
fall.
Doyle backs his opinion today
with his customary midSeaSon
prices on the pennant races.
YANKS 7-1O
This date approXimates the half
way mark in the pennant races and
by tradition teams which are out
in front now will still be there at
the finish. AS a result, the Yankees
are quoted as 7-to-10 favoriteS in
the American League and the
Giants are held to be an even
money bet in the National.
The Yankees, as matter OF
fact, are not exactly leading at
this time. Instead, they are tied
for the topmost rung in the stand
ings with the Cleveland Indians,
but Doyle still thinks the cham
pions should be favored. He holds
the Indians at 2 to /, the third
place Boston Red Sox at 4 to l,
and the fourth-place Detroit II.
gers at S to i.
In revealing his odds, Doyle ex-
plains that because of the close
ness of the races they are subject
to momentary change, then he
places the Pittsburgh Pirates next
to the Giants at to 2, with the
Chicago Cubs at 3 to 1 and the
Cincinnati Reds at to l, follow
ing in the National League.
NO SHOW PRICE
The Yankees are l to 5 to fin
ish no worse than second in their
league and the Giants are / to 3
on the same wager in the Ma
tional. Both are "out" in so far as
show is concerned, along with the
Indians and Pirates.
AS the clubs stand today, there
are three red-hot contenders in
each league. Besides the Indians,
with whom they are tied, the Yam
KEGS have the Red Sox on their
hands, only two and one-half
games back, and perhaps the
Tigers, too, may yet come on.
They are eight and one-half games
out of first place.
The Giants are three and one
half games ahead Of the Pirates,
six ahead of the Cubs and eight
in front of the Cincinnati Reds.
Thus the National League race
is running pretty much to form.
except that the collapse of Dizzy
Deans arm has thrown the Cubs
out of their position as cofavorites
with the Giants.
In the American the thing is
distinct reversal of recent cam
paigns. The Yankees are not
going to spreadeagle the field as
they did in the past two races.
In fact, they may not even win.

Bassin was sent to Wilkes-Barre in the New

the Yanks for further conditioning. Harry needs

Harry was moved on, after a week, to Wilkes

under the able guidance Of old Mike McNally,
a former Yank player.
HITTING 400
During his two weeks as q member of the
Wilkes Barre team he fieIded spOtlessly except
for that "bOOzle" that ripped open his hand Sat
urday. But the smart feature of his session so
far with the BarOnS is the manner in which he
is clOuting the apple. Yessir, he is punching out
hits at a 400 clip, which no doubt is going over
big with the Yank front office force.

Basin, after a week with WilkesBarre, had

now the secret is out.

he feels like a different ball player. No lying
