Y m Vk M Those features x, still exist but lately they have GrantlandRlce been clogged with strikes, unions at work, Mexican lawsuits, football players being haled before the courts for contract troubles, lawyers' law-yers' pleas, judges' decisions. The gaunt shadow of Blackstone has fallen rather drearily across the scene. The courts are becoming enmeshed en-meshed in football, baseball and racing cases, with lawyers, judges union leaders and politicians horn ing in on what once were tests of skill, courage and stamina. It all is part of the badly befogged times. There isn't any questioning the fact that manv thinss have been out of line. Neither football nor base ball contracts can be held legally valid when the employer can hold a man for life, but also fire him on 10 days' notice. That of course, is not a contract. It may be a neces sary way to handle certain intricate situations, but there is nothing legal about it Club owners in baseball long before this should have set up a minimum big league wage and also should have made some provi sions for division, with the player in Question of the price for whicn tne Dlaver was sold or traded. Many baseball club owners are extremely liberal, others are not strictly to the contrary. The ballplayer de serves better protection than he has received in too many cases here tofore. In professional football we read where most of the clubs in the two leagues sign up from 50 to 60 play ers apiece bat their league rules say they can keep only 33 of these players. What about the contracts the others have signed those who will be released on short notice? If a player can be fired on Quick no tice, why shouldn't he jump on quick notice for better pay? It is a tough problem, since base ball and football are strictly com' petitive games wherein certain ball parks, because of their size, such as the Yankee stadium, will draw more paid admissions by mid-June than smaller parks in cities such as St Louis will draw over the course of the season. It isn't often that a Tom Yawkey comes along who has little interest in the financial side of his team and who is willing to spend millions to get a winner.. What the Future Holds All this happens during the best season baseball ever has dreamed of in the way of crowds and public interest; and to what looked to be the best season professional football foot-ball ever has known. Just how the sports public will react re-act to all these complications still is a guess. It may be that the public has taken such a beating from so many wrecking strikes that it has become numb and no longer feels any pain. Every side has been protected pro-tected and defended except that of the public, which happens to represent repre-sent more than 100 million of our population. These 100 million apparently appar-ently don't count. They are only around to be shoved aside. Just how the keyed-up fanatics who pay the toll will react to all this outside trouble is anybody's guess. The odds are that most ol them won't bother. The public always al-ways has been a glutton for a beating, beat-ing, and habit is hard to change. There are many tangles and tough breaks to beset the athlete. Those drafted or sold to tail-end teams get all the worst of It A college player play-er can pick his own campus and most of the better high school players play-ers like to be enrolled with winning teams. It'a better to win than to act as a door mat on an outclassed squad. It may be that a union could help in professional baseball and tnnt. ball, but it would have been a bet ter way U the leading players had arranged their own oreanizatinno to deal with club owners. An outsider out-sider stepping into the working clubhouse club-house of a ball club or a football team to harangue the players is someuimg out 01 line. It wouldn't have been bad idea If baseball and football nlavpr. ri lowed the lead of the golfers, who have had their Professional Colfo association working ably for some time. This organization has hB well directed by Ed Dudley, the president, and a capable board of lirtctors and other officials. The one cheerful note in all th;. is that a large part of the is turning more than ever to the playing side rather than tj that of the spectator.

Simply baste the top curtain to the lower one over the curtain's top row of stitching. Run the curtain rod through the heading on the under curtain. Top one gathers with it. Short Existence Although some May flies require three years to develop in the larval lar-val stage, they experience the shortest adult existence of any living liv-ing creature. Upon emerging fully matured from the film encasing them, they mate, lay their eggs and usually die within 12 hours. To remove scratches on woodwork wood-work and floors, rub with a littls lard, then rub off with a clean cloth. ' J In order to get much Vitamini C, turnips should be eaten raw.
