NEW IDEA
 IN SPORES
 ADVANCED

GLENDALE, Calf, March 30 = lR-The old-time manner of bally- hooing baseball games by announc- CTS riding the streets on horseback may be revived in Pacific Coast League cities, Sports Editor Russ Cochran of the Glendale News Press said today.
 Umpires, in fact, may be asked to put on the act, Cochran wrote in his column.
 He said he had learned from "an exclusive and authoritative source that Pacific Coast League team owners will soon be approached by one of their clan with plea that clubs return to the days of parades, bands and the era of 'Foghorn' Murphy in an effort to get some color back into the game and stir up new interest on the part of the dwindling fans"
 Murphy was an announcer famed for his daily appearances astride white horse in San Francisco years ago. He was not an umpire.
 Cochran said he thought the fans

MRS. KATE SMITH IN
 INTERVIEW IN HAWAII

Mrs. Kate Smith, former presi-' dent of the Business and Profess Sional WomenS' Club who was re- gently transferred from the Juneau office of the Alaska Native Service to North Dakota for the Indian Service, was the subject of the following feature story in the Hon. olulu Advertiser:
 Mrs Kate Smith holds probably the unique distinction of having seen both of Americas territorial legislatures open their sessions this year.
 Mrs. Smith was in Juneou Jan uary 24 for the opening of the AL askan legislature, and in Honolulu last week for the opening of the Hawaiian legislature.
 She has just completed five years as social worker with the Alaska Native Service, and is ending a short vacation in Honolulu before going to North Dakota where she will be with the Indian service. She will be at Fernhurst. the YWCA residence for women, until March 1
 We had no flowers, or leis, or hula dancers at our opening" she laughs. but we had plenty of snow and ice" m
 As in Hawaii, the crowd at the opening overflowed the~gallery into the surrounding halls. The Alaskan legislature meets in modern quar- ters in the federal building in Ju- neau.
 Mrs. Smith was especially inter- ested in the makeup of the Ha- waiian legislature both as to race

I H ES F J A Y $ By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
The Price We Pay

As I watched these curious char acters. Joe Adonis, Frank Costello, Virginia Hill, pass across the tele- vision screen before the Kefauver committee, my mind could not avoid going back to the days of prohibition, the jazz age, the hip- pocket flask, Al Capone, Waxey Gordon, Legs Diamond, and the whole array of bootleggers, hi- jackers, rum-runners and general scoundrels that filled our world of the 1920's.
 And the question naturally arose as to what price a nation pays for its abnegation of morals and when is the price to be collected? For what we, the people who permit ted the prohibition hoodlums to rule over us did was to make pop ular the violation of civil law, the effect was to encourage the vio- lation of moral law.
 It is an interesting phenomenon how these go together. Prohibition encouraged the lie, but the lie did not stop with bathtub gin. Lying became a way of life, just as the pragmatic idea that anything you could get away with was right be- came way of life The test of right was not moral law, which is the product of the whole of human ex- perience over thousands of years, but what anybody could get away with.
 You recall all the jokes about chastity and virginity. They were funny, weren't they? We all laughed. But today we see the con- sequences of our laughter in the violent increase in divorce. in teen- age crimes, in juvenile pregnancies. The sins of the fathers are hitting the grandchildren and hitting them hard. It is no longer a joke. It comes right back at us in broken homes, in disrespectful children, in disregard of proprieties in corrup- tion in public life.
 Just think of Virginia Hills bra zen testimony. Where did she get all the money she spent? From the men she went out with. Then she added that lots of girls get money from the men they go out with. We used to have a name for that and those who pursued such vo- cation were not encouraged to mingle with other folks. The des-

NO WAR III IN THREE YEARS, SAYS STA5SEN

CHICAGO, March 30 --R-Har- old E. Stassen said today that the odds are against World War in the next three years.
 The president of the University of Pennsylvania told the Executives Club of Chicago in prepared speech:
 Careful study convinces me that if the Soviet Union starts war to- morrow or at any time in the next three years Russia will be destroyed at home by American air and atomic strength and will face a counter-revolution of many millions of people now imprisoned in her empire.

PLAYING RULES IN BASKETBALL
 CHANGED NOW

MINNEAPOLIS, March 29 -IR- The joint committee on basketball rules has decided future college, AAU and YMCA games should be played in 10-minute quarters instead |of 20-minute halves.
 This was the only change in the basketball code voted by the group which controls the playing of the game in both the United States and Canada. The rules committee in cludes representatives from NCAA, or collegiate phase of the game, the AAU, YMCA. high schools and of Canada
 High schools will continue playing eight minute quarters.
 The lawmakers said the Pacific Coast conference will play some games under an experimental rule which will prohibit waiving of the free throw. All personal fouls in the final three minutes will call for two shots.

cription is Virginia Hills not mine. Senator Tobey, who is the moral conscience of the committee, must have suffered for his country when this young lady made so light of human decency. It was an astound- ing performance of vulgar impu- dence.
 I wonder whether our people quite grasp the foulness of all this. We got into an argument on. this subject in the club car of The Chief" and one who was present said that he did not believe in the government prying into the private affairs of it's citizens. but when l made the point that those who are engaged in conspiracy to corrupt our land can have no private af- fairs. he wondered He could not realize that these criminals opera ted a dual form of government, they operating separately from the Jaw.
 Yet, this same man would favor investigation of Communists who engage in conspiracy but he can not altogether recognize how dope peddlers could subvert a nation. It was hard for him to realize that an entire nation can be harmed, when agencies are at work delib- erately to break down the morals of a people. Teaching children to take dope can, in time, produce a body of subversive adults.
 The fact is that Al Capone's regime created social and political conditions from which we need now to rescue our country. The real harm these men did was not in their bribing police: it was and is in their ability to contribute to political parties under the table, ? as the expression goes. by this means to participate in the choice of candidates, even of judicial can didates applied to national levels, nothing could be more destructive of our nation.
 Politicians have always had to seek funds to promote their cam- paigns, but in this situation the evidence shows that those who are actually engaged in crime have been building a super government a powerful, nationwide control over the structure of law and authority in the United States.
 It is impossible to take this situ- ation too seriously. The danger is that it will prove a seven days wonder and the corruption will go on as before. The Kefauver com mittee should continue it's investi- gation until the entire pattern is clear. m

These fabrics have q long and

for centuries. However. the House,
of Scalamandre is only 80 years
old in this country, having been
by Franco Scalamandre
when he was "a years Of age after
coming from Italy in 1921. He has

where these silks will hang. Also,
Ibis company was responsible for
the many damasks. satins and
silks used in renovating the
Williamsburg homes.
The background of the family is
very interesting. The origin Is
actually French, but seldom does
the public consider 1t in that light.
It was about 200 or SO years ago
when this family left France and
took up residence / in Italy. Its
members went there to develop

This is the production Of raw silk
by raising silkworms. Later part
of the family took up weaving and
another part did textile designing
Still others taught designing n

When Franco Scalamandrs
