White Sox Team
~ May Embarrass
.
American League
BY HERBERT W. BARKER
Associated Press Sports Writer 1
On the basis of the early returns;
the Chicago White Sox threatenl
to become a source of considerable
embarrassment to the rest of the
American League.
Thanks principally to the addi
tion of such batsmen as Al Sim
mons and Mule Haas, the pale hose
had won eight games out of elev
en from the St. Louis Browns,
Cleveland Indians and Detroit
Tigers Teusday.
They are in a virtual first-place
tie with the New York Yankees
and generally were getting much
better pitchisg than any one had
reason to anticipate.
Lack of pitching, the experts
said, would ruin Chicago’s hopes
of pushing into the first division.
It still. may but so far Lew Fon
seca’s moundsmen. have been more
than adequate. They've allowed
only 34 runs and 73 hits in 11
games while the Sox were scoring
52 runs on 101 hits.
They made it three in a row over
the Indians Monday winning a 5-4
decision as Vic Frasier and Joe
Heving outpitched Wes Ferrell
Frasier allowed only seven "ts in
the first eight innings but eak
ened in the ninth and Heving came
in to stop an Indian rally one run
short of a tie.
Meanwhile the Yankees were
suffering their second successive
defeat at the hands of the Wash
ington Senators, 11-10. Successive
doubles by Goslin, Cronin andi
Schulte in the eighth gave the Sen
ators the two runs they needed to‘
win for Al Crowder, fifth Wash
ing pitcher, stopped the world
champions with one run in the
ninth.
Jimmie Foxx went on a batting
spree, clouted his third home run,
three doubles and a single and led
‘the Philadelphia Athletics to a 16+
10 victory over the Boston Red
Sox. Detroit made it three in
succession over the Browns, 4.3,
although St. Louis drove Carl
Fischer to cover with two out in
the ninth and had the tying and
winning runs on base when Elon
Hogsett retired the side.
The National TLeague program
was restricted to two games, the
New York Giants beating Brooklyn
14-o, and the Phillies nosing out
| Boston’s Braves, 6 to 5, in 12 in
nings. ; {
Carl Hubbell gave Brooklyn
only four hits in winning his 2nd
successive shutout while the
Giants made good use of the eight
hits they made off Joe Shaute.
Hubbell has pitched 30 innings this
season and allowed only one run.
Al Todd’s pinch single .in the
12th with the bases filled was tHe
blow that gave- the Phillies a
thrilling victory over the Braves.
Chuck Klein hit his first home run
‘of the season in the fifth and &lso
contributed a double and single.’
Athens High Track
Star Is glnel' ible
For DistricltglM t
ee
By F. M, WILLIAMS
With only one more week be
fore the Tenth-district track meet,
the Athens High Maroons were
struck a severe blow Monday when
Carey Wilson veteran 440-yard
dash man was declared ineligible.
Wilson was regarded as one of
the outstanding athletes in the
high schoel and has been a eonsis
tent winner in the 440-yard dash
this year. He was conceded a gool
chance of winning the event in the
district meet.
Cary was declared ineligible be
cause of his age. The rule con
cerning this declares that no per
son 20 years of age or over is eli
gible for high school athletic com
petition.
i The Maroons, however, are not
giving up and are working hard to
get in shape for the meet. “Brick”
Stone will take Wilson's place in
the 440-yard dash in the meet.
Stone is the only man who has
beat Wilson this eyar,
The Tenth district meet will be
j?em,_in Washington this year in
stead of in Monroe, This fact will
thinder the athletes, participating
Yecause of the bad track, Most all
of the dashes either start or end
ap hill and some of them start
and end up hill. However this will
not be any harder on one team
than the other. Washington, being
acquairted with the * track wili
have a slight edge over the other
schools. A :
“This year the Maroons are prac
tically assumed of two first places,
the 100-yard dash and the broad
jiinp. Harold Epps, winner of these
twe events last year will be. the
Athens man in these two events
this year. i
i Washington, Monroe, Lincolnton
@nd Athens are the four leading
teams this' year.” Washington has
a strong team, having taken one
victory over Athens by a 2 point

11930, after a long period of soli
‘tary = confinement, Harvey = was
working in a field with several
other prisoners and one guard.
‘Harvey pushed the guard into ai
ditch, disarmed him and marched
thim and the other prisoners to a.l

He eommandeered a car and sped
‘away. But six days later he was
recaptured, irenically enough, in
‘another ditch.
} 7.—He passed a year and a halt]
in a death cell after that. But
idur_ins the terrific heat of the
summer of 1931 Harvey was sent
into the fields again. It was all
the opportunity he needed. He
carved a dummy Dpistol out ot{
wood, blackened it with shoe pol
ish, and proceeded to holl up and‘
disarm the guards. Ten days later
‘he was caught in Chicago. |
' B—For “safe keeping,” the death
cell again received him. But last
January 22, he made his eighth
escape. Though he was allowed nb‘
visitors and was searched by‘
guards, an iron and several hack-l
saw blades reached him in solj-‘

COALITION RUMORED
WASHINGTON —(AP)— Rum
ors of a possible coalition of reg
ular Republicans and “free silver”
Democrats to eliminate the gold
cnotent reductio nclause from the
inflation bill and to put over the
free coinage of silver amendment
of Senators Wheeler and King
went the rounds of the senate
Tuesday as debate was rimgimed on
the floor.
Senator Reed (R-Pa.), opposi
tion leader ,said he had heard the
proposition suggested, but did not
know ho wfar it had gone.
Reed, however, said he would
prefer the free-coinage amend
ment to the gold authorization
clause as the “lesser of two evils.”
~ Senator Wheeler (D-Mont), who
with Senator King (D-Utah), have
offered the amendment to author
ize the President to remonetize
silver at whatever ratio with gold
he deems advisabfe and for free
coinage of both gold and silver,
said he had not been aware of the

POWER OF PEOPLE

(Continued l"rnln_-l.'ug:«,- One) ‘
velt's handling of congress has
given. Many people scek to ex
cuse the ineffectiveness of our na
tional government, under Republi
can administration, in combatting
the economic and moral depression
by claiming that President Hoo
ver lacked the necessary majority
in congress to ,put through his
program. And they point to the
majority the Democratic party has
in the present congress. But we
should not be deceived into be
lieving that the suecess of Presi
dent Roosevelt has been due en
tirely to ‘the large majority his
party commands in congress. Re
cent political history has demon
strated that you cannot determine
lthe political prinéiples of an office
(holder by the party label under
!whlch he operates. The Demo
cratic majority, large as it may be
on paper, in reality is a cohesive
and unified group only through the
leadership of Mr. Roosevelt. When
we divide ‘the Demoeratic con
gressional majority = into its con
stituent parts we find we have
enough variety of political opinion
to justify the creation of several
political parties. To have united
the divergent groups represented
in the Democratic congressional
majority demanded the character
of leadership which President
Roosevelt has shown, a leadership
which has won the admiration and
support of the American people,
Needed Authority
“In order to carry out the huge
program of the President, it was
necessary to entrust him with
such a concentration of authority
‘that has seldom been witnessed n
our nation, certainly not in times
of peace. Much has been said and
written concerning this concentra
tion of power in the executive. It
has been commended and con
demned as a dictatorship, and
some persons have expressed Lhe
fear that such a dictatorship is a
menace to democratic govermnent,
This fear, I believe, is based on
the fact that those who express it
have confused in their own minds
the two types of dictatorship;
that Wwhich is based on the con
sent of the people, and therefore
democratic, and that which is the
result of arbitrary usurpation of
authority by the executive. The
dictatorship of President Roose
velt, if such it may be termed,
should not create fear in the
minds of those who believe in
democratic government, for the
reason that it is a temporary ex
pedient te get things done that
otherwise would be difficult, if not
possible of achievement within a
‘reasonable length of time, and for
the more important reason that it
is based upon the consent of the
people. The President has not
appropriated to himself these un
usual powers against the will of
the majority. You may be assured
‘that if the members of the United
States congress did not believe
that a majority of their constitu
ents are behind the President in
this emergency they would not
agree to vesting him with power
which, in normal times, the con
gress reserves to itself.
“In times of stress the tempta
tion exists in many executives to
take advantage of the despair of
the people and in the name of nec
essity wrest from them the power
which the people should exercise
through their legally elected rep
resentatives in the legislature. His
tory has shown that this type of
dictatorship is possible only when
the people are without meaus to
prevent it such as the lack of op-‘
portunity to express their will
through duly constituted legisla
tive bodies, o ‘through “coercion
of the peoples’ elected officials by
executive will. : |

“The President has not. only
demonstrated. that leadership in
the executive is necessary for the
enactment of programs for bene
fitting the people, and that vast
power. can be delegated to the
executive by the people—when it
is done by constitutional means—
without endangering democratic
government, but he has given us
a new definition of the purpose of
democratic government. He has
shown us that democratic govern
ment is the kind of government
that, by the consent of the peo
ple, undertakes measures designed
to improve the conditions under
which the people live. And he has
shown that whenever the people
endorse and support legislative
measures designed to -help them

no matter by what names, or w?&,
