Dear Peoples Voice:
The waters of time do go under the
bridge, and another yearly subscrip
ton is due. So far as l know l am
the only subscriber you have at this
post office and yet we are an agri-
cultural community.
| The farmers of our county park
have been held in the organized sway
of the Farm Bureau Federation. 1t
seems that under the triple alliance
of the Grange, Farmers Union and
Farm Bureau, the two older organiza-
lions have left this county to the
Farm Bureau.
1t (the Farm Bureau) has made a
sorry spectacle at educating the farm
ers of our county to the need and
strategy of farmer cooperation in eco
nomic self defense as against other
organized groups and businesses, all
fighting specifically for themselves
the devil take the hindmost, while the
farmer has clearly been the hindmost
Strange to say, the farmer, even
though bellyaching necessarily that
his group is the -hindmost and taking
the worst of it, too many of us just
don't cooperate in organized strategy
of hold to and enjoy our own in a
just and reasonable mutual public
economy distribution of wealth..
God indeed does help those who
help themselves.
Not strange to say that the farmer
does get liberal cooperation in the
prayers which ascend to heaven in
the interest of a bountiful annual
harvest of agriculture to that end
there seems to be an all out mutual
wish and prayer.
The farmer expects to and does
prepare the seed bed, plant and SOW,
weed and bug and worm in protection
and promotion of the growing crop,
then harvest and store the crop ready
for market. Here the tug of war in
controversy begins. What is a just
price for the farmers varied, diver
sified and indispensable crop.
In this connection it has occurred to
me that If the farmer the banker, the
baker and candlestick maker only
knew statistical, experimental and
theoretically the sum total of what the
whole of us know collectively what a
difference it would make in the
thoughts that we think and the words
that we speak on those multitudinous
questions.
Moreover, if the whole of us only
used the charity, give and take, live
and let live that few so commend
ably use, that too would help the
farmer and banker, the baker and the
maker to a face to face
and eye to eye state Of agreement
and justice in all that pertains to
tearing away the barriers from be-
tween the oppressed and the oppres-

1t has occurred to me that a three |

to the satisfaction of all readers of

In the third paragraph of Mr.. O'Con-

That is in reference to bushels of

In losing their fourth straight

two years ago. Hollingsworth scat

its only run in the sixth when Mike
Chartak singled and Roberto Ortiz
fetched him home with a double.
By that time, though, the Browns
hardly were fretting over that run,
for they had hammered Early

Bill Kennedy walked three and

The Browns added their final run
in the eighth without benefit of one

CHICAGO, May 81. - Johnny
Colan's bid for a crack at the world
ght-heavyweight boxing title COL
lapsed under 10 rounds of punching
last night by Anton Christoforidis
of Cleveland, former champion and
ranking challenger.
A crowd Of 8.708 in the Chicago
Stadium paid Sl5,17l to see the bout
in which Christoforidis' experience
and aggressiveness caught up with
the New Yorker who had won 38 of
AZ bouts, including seven straight in
Chicago.
Christoforidis, weighing 1887 to
Colans 173, won the first round,
dropped the second and unloosed in
the third a smothering attack to
the head and body that he followed
up to the finish. A left hook to the
chin dropped Colan in the fifth
round, but he was up without
count.
The 20-year old Colan bore the
barrage gamely and at the finish
had the former champion backed
off into corner.
Christoforidis won the title year
ago from Melio Bettina and five
months later lost it to Gus Lesne-

May SteoI Show
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON.

A couple of slightly out-of focus
gents will try to horn into the 1912
heavyweight championship picture
tonight at Griffith Stadium where
Lou Nova, reformed Yogi, and Lee
Savold, another potential Cinder-
ella-man, tangle in the 10-round fea-
ture.
Sharing top billing with a middle
weight match of even greater i'm
portance in its class and involving
strictly homegrown talent, George
Abrams VS.. Steve Mamakos, the
heavy fight is expected to be a
bloody brawl and for sheer action
one of the best ever presented here.
Proceeds, after. expenses have
been deducted, will be turned over
to the Navy Relief Fund, cause
that needs no champion before the
American public. 1t is in the nature
of benefit, but this time the tables
are turned and the fans are on the
receiving end of what shapes up
as the finest ring card ever assem-
bled in Washington.
Nova and Savold are in the pink,
fully aware of the importance Of
their clash. Lou needs a decisive
victory, a knockout if possible, to
erase the bitter memory of his hu-
initiating defeat at Champion joe
Louis hands last summer and to re-
establish him as q genuine title
contender. The odds are with him.
They were 81 at last report and
slowly rising. He was expected TO
enter the ring a 81 favorite.
Savold Must Work Fast.
For Savold the fight was Old Man
Opportunity pounding on his door
with both fists A veteran of 10 years
in the ring at the surprisingly young
age of 26, Lee can obliterate all the
mistakes and bum breaks of his
checkered career by emerging the
winner. Victory for him would
plant his tattered banner in the
forefront Of the thinning list Of
challengers for Louis throne and
assure him of another lucrative test
this summer if not an outright
crack at the title. He is one of the
few heavyweights who have not met
the champ and the heavy sugar such
a fight would toss his way is
powerful incentive.
Ring experts anticipate savage
fight ending in a knockout. Most
concede Savold only an outside
chance at best, with everything de-
pending on the first three rounds.
Getting over a kayo punch before
the end of the third is Savold's only
hope, in their opinion. If the fight

Apt 10 Gef 3,OO0th
Hit Next Month
Rv the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, May 21.-One day in
June, which happens to be only II
days away, the baseball auditors
will add a seventh name on the
list of major league players who
have made 5000 hits-that OF the
39-year-old Paul Waner, who was
known as Big Poison" in his prime.
Paul, a quiet and inoffensive per-
former who has maintained a 10
year major league slugging average
of 1888, now is a valued member OF
the Boston Braves outfield.
Due to his age, he has not been
playing regularly this season, but
he still is rated as a dangerous
pinch hitter and a most efficient un-
derstudy for Casey Stengel's younger
fy-chasers.
Paul has not had any too many
opportunities to hit this season, but
he has taken due advantage of every
one of them, with the result that
he needs only 81 more blows during
the remainder of the Braves sched-
ule, which totals 120 games, to
achieve his goal and prominent
place among the greatest hitters Of
all time.
When the current season opened
Paul had a total of 1856 hits to his
credit. So far, he has come to bat
80 times and has banged out %
hits for a slugging mark of .280.
But Paul still has plenty of time to
get his 3,O0Oth hit and, at the rate
he has beer betting, it seems to be
q matter of about a fortnight.

ST. LOUIS, May 21.-Symbolizing
the little man who wasn't there is
the Mats Ted Madjeski, an abbre-
waited third-String catcher who re-
mains myth to Washington fans.
He wasn't out there on the field
again last night as the Mats ab-
sorbed a 10-1 trimming from the
Browns.
Madjeski is a catcher who has
caught no games, nor is he likely
to handle the Mats pitching. He
doesn't even catch batting practice
Coach Benny Bengough does-nor
does he warm up relief pitchers in
the bullpen. That, too, is Ben
coughs assignment.
The diminutive Madjeski owns
one Of the Softest jobs in major
league baseball. He has seen no
action-not even as a pinch-hitter
and doubtless is the only player
on a major league roster who has
seen no service.
Stayed When Deal Failed.
He may be bidding for the all
Time All-American Bench-Warming
club, for Prexy Clark Griffith Of
the Mats hasn't indicated he'll be
clipped from the team and Manager
Bucky Harris hasn't indicated he
knows he's around. He may hang
around for WeekS-perhapS the en-
tire season-and never swing a bat
or throw ball in competition.
When the Mats failed to complete
a deal that would have landed
Angelo Giuliani as a third-string
catcher while the Mats were train
ing at Orlando, Fla, Griffith in
formed Madjeski he would stick
with Washington. MadjeSki was
Floridas happiest character, for he
had no reason to suspect his pres
ence would be desired among the
Mats.
A catcher with the class D Deland
team of the Florida State League
last season, Madjeski didn't dare
dream of making what has been re-
garded as a tremendous leap. He
wasn't sensation in training camp,
maybe because he never had a
chance to prove himself one way or
the other. In the Mats 81 exhibit
ton games, Madjesh caught one
inning of one game.
His current role with the Mats Is
ironical Labeled a catcher, his
only labor for the club consists of
pitching the final two minutes or
so of batting practice. But how he
is expected to develop as catcher
by putting on uniform, pitching
a few balls in batting drill, then
