Only three men are in the
American League today who were
active at its formation in 1901.
They are Connie Mack, CLARK
Griffith, and the dean Of umpires
Tom Connolly. We still hear OTTER
of the first two, since Tom went
behind desk his name seldom
appears in print.
Mr.. Connolly has come a Ions

His judicial turn of mind wa,

when ST. Louis was here for {
double-header Fifteen rows oI
circus seats we're in right and left
fields to accommodate vast over

Ground rules were in force. a
hit into the crowd was cut TO two
bases.
Behind these seats, and alonl
the right field wall, was 10-foo'
high wire fence that formed &
passage from the old bleacher:
into the pavilion.
A hit over and above this screer
was A. home run. The drawback
was the wire fence could not be
seen because of the temporary
seats. This condition gave The
extra headaches.
The Tigers were leading, 81
in the late innings of the frs
game St. Louis put runners or
first and second with Harry Rice
up.
Harry rammed the ball over the
heads of the patrons in the right
field circus seats. The plate UNI

He argued that the courses which
the plaintiffs sought to study were
not available at any state supper

University of Tennessee constituted
race discrimination and was a vio-
lation of constitutional rights based
solely on race and color.
The court held that equivalent

A HIGHWAY
TO ALASKA

1t took a WaT to bring serious consider
alton in official circles Of 4 highway IL
Alaska, and if serious consideration does
not take concrete form pretty soon the
war may come too close toe soon to make
the project anything but Il dream that
came too late.
Right now it is apparent even to those
who hay deluded themselves IN the past
that the /. -Canadian-AlaSkan highway
might be 4 vital link in defense Of tins
continental highway as important To
North America Is the Burma road Is to
China No amount of opposition by self
iSh shipping interests, standing grim pol
itic3l Guard over their monopoly on tfa1-
fic to Alaska. should be allowed to inter-
fcre with construction of this route aS
soon as possible 1t will take at least
10 months 10 complete such 4 highway
Add to that every month which intewencs
between now and the time construction
is started. and YOU have the vital time
element which make quick action mandA-
tory.
How important is the proposed high
way?
Well. how important are American
lives.
II is not It all fantastic TO suppose
that Alaska might one of these days be
the landing point for considerable IN
vasion force aimed at subduing the
North American continent. II such a
force were landed, certainly il would be
backed up by strong naval forces. IN
cluding submarines and airplane carriers.
Against such powerful enemy naval units
we would have to operate IN sending
troops by ocean-going transport to the
Alaskan territory. Bombs and torpedoeS
would make them Significantly eligible
to attack Military and naval tragedy
might very Well follow.
With highway crossing Canada to
Alaska. on the other hand, troops, guns
and supplies could be moved by land,
with far greater safety and with far less
possibility that one enemy blow could
account for a major share of the defense
forces.
We were asleep at Pearl Farbor. We
were virtually unprepared throughout
the far east.
Are we going to be unprerared on our
own continent as well?
