de Crédit, at Porte de Montreuil; Union Parisienne v. American Express, at Arcueil. John McGraw played his first game of professional baseball as a member of the old Baltimore Orioles in 1891. Since that time he has watched the stars of the Big Leagues come and go and has had more players on his payroll than any other manager who ever ruled over the destinies of a major league club. McGraw came to the Giants in mid-season of 1902 and played in thirty-four games that year, which was his last season in regular harness. Since that time he has worked
season in regular harness. Since that time he has worked in a managerial capacity although he went in as an occasional pinch-hitter, making his last appearance on the official score sheets in 1906. In the seventeen years that McGraw played professional baseball he hit for an average of .334, a mark which he can tell any of his trusted men to go and shoot at without much fear of being bettered. McGraw’s proudest personal reminiscence comes from a game which was played in Brooklyn in 1900 when he faced “Wild Bill” Donovan five times and got four walks and a
Bill” Donovan five times and got four walks and a dead ball, these five free passes being the only gifts which Donovan made during that game. McGraw has given New York ten winners in the National League and three World’s Championship pennants. He rules his team with an iron hand, but his players respect his fairness and have seen the result of his discipline in the results obtained. It is not unusual for John McGraw to use five or six chuckers in each game, and he yanks a hurler without mercy when he begins to show signs of wobbling. John
mercy when he begins to show signs of wobbling. John McGraw would never have let Walter Johnson stay in the box for fear of hurting the Old Master’s feelings, as “Bucky” Harris did in the recent World’s Series. McGraw presents the best market in the world for promising baseball material, for the bottom of the Club’s purse is the limit when a likely recruit is dangled before his eyes. And the New York Nationals’ purse is a deep one. Centers Likely Winners Tonight The Stanford basketball five which has taken its two games without serious difficulty in the Paris Basketball
its two games without serious difficulty in the Paris Basketball League will get its first real acid test this evening when it clashes with the fast Memorial Centre quintet on the floor at the American Gymnasium at 79 Rue Denfert-Rochereau. This game will be the second clash of a double-header, the first battle being between the American Legion bunch and the fast moving American Tourist aggregation. The Memorial Centre boys were known as the Palette Club last year and they won the Neidecker Cup, which was the prize of the League. With three of their old players, and two bang-up

The Stanford streaks will lack the very valuable assistance of Reg Hirschman tonight and this loss, coupled with the recent desertion of Milt Esberg, leaves the Cardinals limping around in search of more material to build up their scoring machine.

League, but the ex-soldier-sailor-marine outfit claims to have dug in for a "passeront pas" defense. The Légion's policy is to defend its own goal basket with five men, and to depend on long shots such as Romanov and Carreno showed last week, to give them a winning total of points. Manager Gaston François has announced that the games will be called at 8:30 promptly, whether full team strength for the various teams is ready or not. This feature will make a great hit with the fans, who made a great protest over the tardy commencements at the games last Saturday

LORD DERBY SECURES BIG LIVERPOOL RACE LONDON, Saturday. — Lord Derby's Sierra Leone proved a sound investment for the Autumn Cup at Liverpool yesterday. The horse became a strong tip after doubts about Pharos and she started at 6 to 1. Regio was second, and Twelve Pointer third. It was Lord Derby's day out, as he captured two other prizes, with Burnt Sienna in the Croxteth Plate, and Spendthrift in
with Burnt Sienna in the Croxteth Plate, and Spendthrift in the last event on the card. The Council of State, the highest court of administrative law in France, holds that a mayor may prohibit boxing matches. Going against the plea even of the State Attorney in the case of the Mayor of Châlons-sur-Marne, it has decided that this municipal magistrate acted within the law in banning boxing bouts. The Mayor of Châlons prohibited boxing matches within the limits of the town he administers because they are “brutal and at times savage,” and because he finds them subversive to public morals.”
savage,” and because he finds them subversive to public morals.” The Independent Sports Club of Châlons brought suit for the annulment of the decree, claiming that the mayor exceeded his powers. Counsel argued that the mayor had banned boxing for reasons extraneous to the Law of 1884, that his political authority is limited to the preservation of order, and that it is not for him to judge of the moral effect of boxing bouts on the spectator. M. Calix-Salvador, Commissioner for the Government, went even further, reaching the conclusion that bouts are not simply spectacles, but sporting affairs as well,
bouts are not simply spectacles, but sporting affairs as well, and therefore are not under the control of the police so long as they do not create disturbances. Court Sustains Mayor. The Council of State rejected the conclusions of the Government Commissioner, together with those of the attorney for the Sports Club. It holds that boxing matches are public spectacles, and it points out that the law gives to mayors wide powers to regulate all exhibitions in the interest of public order. Those that fall under the classification of spectacles de curiosité may be given or refused authorization at the
de curiosité may be given or refused authorization at the discretion of the municipal authority. The Court considered that the Mayor of Châlons prohibited boxing matches for the reasons he enumerated, and that, as these reasons are undeniably connected with public order, he acted within his rights and did not exceed his powers.

Paris, Saturday, November 8, 1924. THE BREED If America in its "melting pot" experiment is running the risk of becoming for a while a "polyglot boarding house," the late Theodore Roosevelt once warned, there is still ample evidence that the old strain of blood which made the country great persists in vigor, and has not yet lost its dominance. The latest evidence is in the national election, which chose two men of the truly New England breed to guide the destinies of the country. And no matter who the winner of that election had been, the evidence would have been
of that election had been, the evidence would have been the same, or of the six candidates for major office, every one was the product of a pioneer family, his character molded to an American model by an ancestry which had grown up with the country. Puritan England flowed West from the old Bay State. Old France came down from Quebec, restless and virile Scotch, Irish and Welsh, adding their national, imaginative, daring qualities to the sober "common sense" of Calvinist dissenters were all in the blood of the men standing out as political leaders for the country. There is
standing out as political leaders for the country. There is no Klanish bigotry and inference in the attitude of satisfaction which Americans may take in seeing the old stock of the race which is growing America, still potent in breeding men for farce. There is no slur implied toward the modern pioneers of all races who are adding to the greatness of the country, not only their sinew but new cultural forces from their lands. But the old Americans have given the land some institutions, and a dominant culture peculiarly their own, adapting it by modification and change to the
their own, adapting it by modification and change to the new environment of the New World. Their descendants are being submerged, numerically. But they are holding their own in power. It must be acknowledged that the new America is becoming something quite different from the old. And that is just as well, or better. Strong races, throughout history, have been mongrel rather than pure-bred. But the ultimate mongrel, fighting and strong, only the product of the strains within him. And in the American mixture the earliest breed was too good to be lost. WAGGING THE HORSE By all accounts periodic
to be lost. WAGGING THE HORSE By all accounts periodic introspection is good for the individual; it tends to promote humility and to forestall suffering. It may be believed then that it is good for that magnified individual, society. Let us moderns who so plume ourselves on our mastery of the world of mechanics and on our time- and labor-saving devices, take a moment’s stock of ourselves. Of course, let us do this only if we can find time and are not too exhausted. We have, among other things, invented the automobile. We all believe it to have multiplied man’s
the automobile. We all believe it to have multiplied man’s comfort and made life infinitely easier for him. How strange then that the Paris authorities have just banned man from certain Paris streets in favor of the automobile. How strange that they are tearing their hair incessantly in an effort to find room, more room, for the motor car. How strange that a trip to Paris has ceased to be a pleasure, but is an act of courage, a risk of one’s life about equal to a day in the trenches. How strange that the number of deaths yearly due
trenches. How strange that the number of deaths yearly due to automobile accidents runs into the hundreds of thousands, that mothers are in constant fear for their children. It would appear that the tail is beginning to wag the horse. Mechanical devices are crowding man out, forcing him to such a speed to hold his own that he has no time for repose and joy and falls down exhausted at last. Man is always overbold and reckless. He starts that blindly which afterwards destroys him. THE WORLD’S PRESS American Comment. “People usually respect the laws if the laws respect people.”
“People usually respect the laws if the laws respect people.” — Baltimore Sun. “Some people imagine they are being sympathetic when really they are only being inquisitive.” — Springfield Illinois State Journal. “The price of cranberries for Thanksgiving is said to be down this year to a point where everybody will be able to have one.” — Detroit News. “Things would be better if, when the nations stack their arms, the diplomats wouldn’t stack their cards.” — Columbia Record.

d’Affaires in London to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the Russian Revolution, the Daily Telegraph expresses astonishment that invitations should have been sent on such an occasion to all diplomatic representatives, including those whose Governments have not recognized Soviet Russia. It calls attention to the fact that Mr. MacDonald did not attend. This paper devotes considerable space to the fear felt in English industrial circles that the industrial restoration of Germany and a Franco-German agreement on coal and steel will constitute a grave menace to Great Britain. The chief argument of the extremely cheaper cost of production in Germany is
of the extremely cheaper cost of production in Germany is the principal basis for the fears of the British manufacturers. Financiers, however, are inclined to belittle such apprehensions. The Westminster Gazette praises the faithful and loyal manner in which General Degoutte has carried out M. Herriot’s orders for the evacuation of the Ruhr, thereby effectively improving Franco-German relations. “These more friendly relations,” it concludes, “are one of the advantages, and not the least, of the excellent work accomplished by the London Conference.” An English understanding with Egypt has not been rendered impossible by the failure of Mr. MacDonald’s discussion with
rendered impossible by the failure of Mr. MacDonald’s discussion with Zaghloul Pasha, according to the Times, nor does England object to negotiate with Egypt to conclude a federal agreement. A little good will is all that is needed to establish cooperation between the two countries. French Comment. Why Germany’s revenue should suddenly jump from 5,200 millions to 6,600 millions, immediately after the rest of the world has been solicited to spend so much for the Imperial Budget, is the cause of considerable irritation among French political writers. Their feeling resembles that of the man who sees the beggar he has
that of the man who sees the beggar he has just aided riding home in a limousine. What arouses them particularly is the fact that “impoverished” Germany’s prosperity is so great that she can “reduce taxes, increase considerably the salaries of Government employees and take effective measures against the high cost of living,” in the words of M. de Villenues, in the Echo de Paris. “To signalize the new era,” continues this writer, “the Reichsbank will in a few days put into circulation a new gold coin, which will indicate the complete recovery of German finances.” Writing in the Œuvre,
the complete recovery of German finances.” Writing in the Œuvre, M. Georges Bonnet takes sober satisfaction in the first steps of the French Government towards balancing the Budget and restoring credit, while insisting that they are but the first steps and that the load France must carry is heavy and that the end of the journey is a long way off. As material evidence he points to the fact that the reimbursements just made to the Bank of France have had the result of bringing Government 3 per cent to 49frs. 95 from 48frs, in two days. “There can be
49frs. 95 from 48frs, in two days. “There can be no better propaganda to assure the success of the coming loan,” concludes M. Bonnet. In a more mature consideration of the personnel of the new Cabinet in London, the French press finds particular occasion to rejoice over the appointment of Mr. Austen Chamberlain to the Foreign Office. The Matin recalls that on July 31, 1914, when Mr. Asquith’s Cabinet split seriously on whether or not to declare war, Mr. Lloyd George brought numerous objections, the Prime Minister received a note from the Conservatives, urging him to align England with France
