COOPER TRIES
BUT CAN'T GET
CARDS IN LEAD

NEW YORK, June &c. CUP)-The
st. Louis Cardinals langulshed nine
games behind the National leagues
pace-setting Brooklyn Dodgers Fri
day but it wasn't the fault OF Pltch"
er Mort Cooper.
Cooper's success on the mound
is the only bright phase of a gen.
orally diScouraging st. Louis out
look. The Cardinals have been able
to win only three of their last nine
games and Cooper has pitched and
won them all.
His two-hit, 40, triumph over
the Boston Braves Thursday was his
10th of the season, eighth in a row
and sixth shutout of the year. Not
a run has crossed the plate during
Cooper's last 80 innings and only
one in his last five games. He dis
posed of the first 16 Boston batterS
in order before Chet Ross connected
with a blooper to right.
Only two other Braves to reach
base were Max West. who walked
and Ernie Lombardi who got a
handle hit, in the seventh. The
Cards shelled Al Javery from the
mound with three runs in the third.
The Dodgers won their third
straight by defeating Cincinnati, 40
behind the five-hit pitching of
Johnny Allen. 1t was Aliens fifth
victory and was effectively clinch-
ed in the third when Brooklyn belt
ed Ray Starr from the mound with
five successive hits producing four
runs 1t was Starr's third loss
against 10 wins and broke his five
game winning streak.
Bill Lee won his ninth victory
pitching Chicago to a II triumph
over Philadelphia. Lee held the
Phils to five hits. The Cubs sent
five runs over in the third, Rip
Russell's single scoring two and
Sal Hernandez one-bagger pushing
over another pair
Detroit blasted Tex Hughson from
the mound with six in the eighth
defeating the Boston Red Sox, 7-3
HughSon, winner of four straight
allowed only one run and four hits
until the eighth.
Cleveland cuffed the Philadelphia
Athletics, Al, for their third in
a row.
Buck Ross won his second victor
for Chicago, limiting the Washing
ton Senators to six safeties for a
20 decision

Bill Garbe walked, was sacrificed,

CRAMER'S TOPS
NEWSiES, 1917

1t looked more like a foot
race than a softball game as
Cramer's team outlasted the
PoSt-Press, 1917, Thursday
night in a B league game in
FL Centre StaGium.
Every man On beth teams col
lected at least one hit and each
tried to outdo each other in making
errors.
Jerry Womack chucked the first
four innings f3: the PoSt-Press and
was relieved by Lloyd Mullins in
the fifth. Rosenbaum went the dis
tance for Cramer's, doing duty for
Charles Ccffman. regular hurler.
Womack gave up six walks and
Mullins gave five free trips to first.
Rosepbaum walked but three men.
Gilett, Cramer's third baSeman
hit three times in four times at
the plate. collecting a homerun in
the process.
Bert HJls, newspaper shortstop,
homered twice and both Womack
and Mullins had fourbaggerS 10
their credit.
Cramers had a 12-4 lead in the
fifth only to see it vanish as the
Post-Press battered all the way
around and brought in II runs.
But the bakery lads added seven
rams more to- finish the game.
1t was undoubtedly the poorest
showing made by either team since
league play started but provided
plenty OF exercise.
The win sent Cramer's into a tie
with three other squads, Imperial
Irrigation District office, Telephone
company and Ortiz Al-Stars. for
second place behind the leading
City of Fl Centre team.

NEW WHITE HOPE
Ever hear of Johnny Colan? He's
the 20-year-old lad from Hell's
Kitchen, New York City, who is
rising rapidly in the realm of fisti-
cuffs and may soon be big enough
to give Mr.. Joe Louis quite an ar
gument.
Colan was a l25-pound kid with
nothing but an awkward style and
a big heart when he was taken ON
by one of the better known fight
managers. Everyone thought the
ring pilot was a little off when he
signed up the lad but he began to
teach him a little about the fight
game and saw that he had enough
to eat for a change. The kid was q
south-paw two years ago and had
to learn to fight right-handed.
From 125 his weight has shot up
to I78 and with it his ring savvy
has gone up proportionately. AS he
started to climb he started chop
ping down opponents methodically,
always knocking them out in the
early rounds.
His handlers feel that in a few
months he will be ready for Louis,
that is if the Brown Bomber and
the Army are agreeable.

BurQer ct a.

There can be no doubt as to the
far-reaching Importance of the
Supreme Courts decision to deny
eight NaZi saboteurs recourse to
habeas corpus proceedings in their
efforts to escape trial by a special
military commission. Ernest Peter
Burger ct al. versus Brigadier Gen
eral Albert L, Cox, provost marshal
Of the military district of Washing
tom undoubtedly will go down in
jurisprudence history alongside Eek
Parte Milligan," the case which
seems most closely to parallel that of
the saboteurs.
The court in effect has strengthened
the hand Of the Executive in dealing
with violations of the law of war
which threaten the security Of the
Nation. Had the court entertained
the petition for writ and, in pur-
suance thereof, thrown the trial of
the Germans into the civil courts,
precedent would have been set that
would have hampered the President
and the military authorities in deal
ing effectively in the future with
such crimes as those charged against
Burger ct al. And, from what FBI
officials say, other saboteurs may be
at large and, when caught, may have
to be dealt with according to the
gravity of their offenses.
AS matters now stand, the already
extended but nearly concluded mill
tary trial has been sustained as valid
and there remain now only closing
arguments by counsel and final
weighing Of verdict by the commits
sion. The Supreme Court hearing
brought out the fact that the de-
tense has conceded some of the more
important charges of the Govern
ment, namely, that the eight defend
ants were trained for sabotage in
Berlin, that they landed by subma-
rine on our shores under cover Of
darkness and that they brought with
them explosives and other equipment
which are the tools Of the saboteur.
Their defense was that they accepted
this grim assignment solely for the
purpose Of escaping" from Germany
and that they had no intention of
carrying out the nefarious mission
which had been intrusted to them by
Hitler's Gestapo. Several members
OF the Supreme Court indicated that
they were not deeply impressed by
this defense. Their skepticism is
fully shared by the people OF this
country.

IS Years Ago
In The Star

History nener repeats NTH perfec-
ton. There Invariably are points
OF unriation betTeen one epent and
another Yet some OF the issues in
poIued in the case OF the German
saboteurs. decided By the Supreme
Court yesterday and those in the
case of Millignn and his associates,
decided December II. 1866, haze
enough in common so that the ed1-
torial printed in The Star concerning
the latter seems interesting to repro
duce, as tollo1DS.:
The Supreme Court of the United
States in the case of the Indiana con-
spirators who were tried by a military
commission during the war, yesterday
decided against the power of such
commission to try a person not in the
military or naval service. in q State
where the ordinary courts of justice
were open. This decision is very I'M
portant one and will doubtless lead to
a great deal of litigation in the civil
courts by persons who have suffered in
person or property through the action
of military tribunals. To be sure, it is
too late to undo much of what has been
done, but the civil courts will have to
conform to the ruling of the Supreme
Court in all cases brought before them.
It has always been urged by many loyal
citizens whose patriotism could not be
doubted, that the trial of persons in
civil life by military tribunals was in
direct opposition to the spirit of our
institutions, but their action was ap-
proved by the loyal masses, as were
other measures, which were deemed nee
essary to save the life of the Nation.
Had the executive. from the incipiency
Of the revolution to overthrow the Gov
ernment, and during the dark and
gloomy days of the war, weakly and
tamely have opposed only by regular,
legal and constitutional means a rebel
lion which was organized in defiance of
the Constitution and laws, and was
utterly unscrupulous in regards to the
means used to insure success, such a
course would have been not only foolish
but criminal, resulting as it would no
doubt have done, in the disruption and
ruin Of the country But the rebellion
having been suppressed 1t is the duty
Of the judiciary, as 1t is of other
branches of the Government, to demand
and enforce a strict conformity to the
laws, to right the wrongs committed
while the Nation was struggling for
existence. and to efface, so far as can
be done, all traces of the disorders
