Levy Fines

Worries about how the younge
generation is going to take care OF
the national debt were dispelled to-
day, at least in the minds of Juneau
Rotary Club members, when si>
High School boys took over the week
ly luncheon meeting and extracted
$5.01 in fines out of Rotarians whose
usual weekly donation" is about
20 cents.
With Eckley Guerin, Student Body
President, presiding, the boys, all
members of the Senior Glass, put
Rotarians through their PAGES try
ing to recall sight-unseen everything
that is printed on their badges. Each
who missed even SO much as letter
was fined 10 cents. Fifty members
contributed. One generous soul
threw in the extra penny.
Assisting Guerin were George
Alexander, Glass Vice President;
Claude Hirst, Past President of the
Glass; Wendell Schneider, Glass
President; Don Wilcox, Business
Manager of Publications, and James
Lemieux, Past Glass President.
Stan Tollefson of Seattle played

tional League bylaws to slip 6
ringer. or American League entry
into the National steeplechase.
So Larry has gone about it eau
tiously, gradually cutting Nationa
Leaguers adrift and adding Ameri-
can Leaguers. Just to show he isn't
superstitious MacPhil had 10 Amer
lean leaguers on hand as the bod
gers faced the getaway barrier He
probably felt that no superstition
or jinx could harm the seventh
place Dodgers. They couldn't out
tumble the Phillies, who have a
copyrighted claim to the cellar.
MacPhail's latest Daffodil for his
Dizziness Boys is young gent
named Cletus Elwood (Boots) Pof-
fenberger, alias The Baron. Boots
amazed the American League with
his magical powers of disappearance
and his ability to remember bar
tenders names.
He Belongs There
Pcffenberger is natural for
Brooklyn. He'll feel at home among
such quaint characters as Van
Lingle Mungo and Russ tRed
Evans. AS Mungo so naively ex-
pressed it, upon hearing Of Poffen-
berger's purchase: "Thatll take a
load off me-"
Detroit couldn't appreciate Boots
eccentricities. He had the greatest
fadeaway in the league. A playful
habit of wandering. Vamoosing. This
fun-loving winker at training rules
never allowed his scheduled turn on

the mound to interfere with his
French leave.
Slight Misunderstanding
Once Manager Mickey Ccchrane
ordered Poffenberger home when
Boots hove to after a vanishing act.
Cochrane meant Detroit But to
the Baron home was Williamsport,
Nd, and that's where he went,
while the Tigers sent out posses
searching for him.
Dummy how these Dodgers are
home-lovers. Mungo always headed
for Pageland, S. c.. when he got
upset, although he could read the
read signs TO BROOKLYN
When Boots reported to Detroit
this spring he was 25 pounds over
weight. He wouldn't get into shape.
Del Baker, the new Detroit mana
ger, decided he would have to go to
an asylum or Boots would have to
get. Baker doesn't fancy asylums,
so the Dodgers got Poffenberger.
If you'll take him as you find
him, and shrug away his oddities,
Boots will win. MacPhail says he
may win Is games. A pitcher who
can win Is games for the Dodgers
can get away with anything. Larry
would buy Brooklyn bridge and
wrap it up for Boots if the young
man developed a yen for it.
The brave man is Manager Leo
Durocher. He agreed to take The
Baron sight unseen.
Never look a gift horse in the
face" said Durocher, as he ordered
another aspirin.

THIEF-INvITING
DRIVERS fined
UNDER new LAW

CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 23.--It's
against the law now to leave car
unlocked on Cheyenne's streets.
A new traffic code, sponsored by
Police Chief T. Joe Cahill, provides
fine of up to 500 for permitting
motor vehicle to stand, unattend-
ed. with ignition unlocked.
Maybe it will help the memories
of those drivers who virtually invite
car thieves by leaving their machines
unlocked" says Cahill.

BROOKLYN, May 23.-Mr. Larry
S. (for Stupendous) MacPhail is an
Idea Man. He is the No. ! Deep
Thinker of Baseball, and / can't
swear the list extends any farther
His ideas panic the staid old Nation
al League.
Last season he brought Brook
lyn its biggest crowds in years
ing the stands. 1t was the same
ing the stands. 1t avs the same
Flatbush Follies but the paint job
fooled the Trolley-Dodger fans.
He introduced the yellow ball
foot-races, night baseball and fun
go-hitting on the theory folks would
come to see the carnival contests if
they wouldn't flock to see his flock
play.
A Brooklyn Surprise
His latest notion is startling
entering an American League team
into the venerable old National
loop race. Larry probably read
those stories which limited the sem
ior circuit was minor league
and that several American clubs
could win a National League PEN
nant
Now Larry is a man willing to
give any old idea a try. And so he's
experimenting to see whether an
American League team actually
can cop the National loop bunting.
This, of course, is revolutionary
idea and doubtless it is against Ma

Willis Smith has even gone to
California to get votes. He has COW
cred North Carolina from the noun
tains in the west to the eastern sea-
shore and he believes he will be the
successor to Governor Hoey. His
policy is a wise one; he speaks well
of all his opponents and he spreads
his genial personality generously.
J. M. Broughton was running
strong as long as school commence
ments held out, but lately he has
been rather quiet. "A number of peo-
pie believe the race will finally mar
row down to Maxwell, Willis Smith,
j. M. Broughton and Tom Cooper,
unless Dick Fountain decides that
now is the accepted time for him to
make his final effort.
The coming campaign will have
none of the bitterness of the Hoey-
Mcdonald scrap, as all the candi-
dates have learned that such methods
will not win an election; moreover
it hurts the party and leaves scars
that are hard to heal The fight will
be interesting, however,

OTHERS VIEWS
THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE.

ON1<AA AV]AOAe
To the Editor:
Hon. A. j. Maxwell scored per-
feet bulleye in his Greensboro speech
the past week, when he outlined a
we'll conceived plan for fifty mil
lion dollar good roads fund, without
one penny of cost to the tax payers
of North Carolina.
His suggestions seem to have met
with almost universal approval from
both the press and the public of the
State. It is a new departure in the
fiscal policy of the commonwealth.
Heretofore the battle cry has been
tax and spend, even to the burial ex-
penses of highly paid State officials,
who were so unfortunate as to lose
out to the grim reaper. Mr.. Maxwell
touched a popular chord in his ut
terances and his speech will not do
any damage to his gubernatorial as
pirations, if he has any. On the con-
trary, his speech places him definite
ly in the race and also puts all of his
opponents on the lookout for new is
sues, to overcome his obvious success
in going to the head of the class in
popular interest and esteem.
The contest for the governorship
has reached the amusing stage. 1t IS
somewhat similar to the war that
has been going on between China and
Japan for more than two years. No
war has been declared but the fight
ing has been fast and furious on all
front. No candidate has made any
public announcement of his candi-
dacy for the governorship but the
fight is going on under cover with
the greatest intensity, by each of the
aspiring gentlemen. There have never
been so many potential candidates
mentioned. 1t is inconceivable that
all who have been mentioned will
remain in the race until the counting
of the ballots is completed Cover
nor Hoey is being courted even more
assiduously than President Roosevelt
was three years ago, by certain bad
ly scared senators and congressman.
Each aspirant is hoping and praying
that the governors smile will finally
fall upon him.
In the meantime, Tom Cooper, of
