ican merchant sailors of the future
must be as much at Inline in the wter
as on it. In other words, they must
know how to swim. The United StaU.-.,
shipping board bas ordered its re
ifuitine service, which is ftrftning
thousands of young men for the mer
chant service, to include swimming
lessons in its training program.' It I
is expected thift this instructTon will
reduce Io,s of life at sea, as many mer
chant sailors today are unable to swim
a stroke. Life saving also will be
taught apprentices on the shipping
board's training vessels.

Peace has paved the way for the
come-back of baseball, and tho future
of the game, as sec it, is brighter
than ever. But the measure of suc
cess the minor leagues will enjoy de-
pends entirely on tho minora them
selves. The Nntional Association gut what
it asked for in the way of Independ
ence through the abrogation of the nn
tionnl agreement and the lifting of
the draft. It is up to the minor leag
uers to make the moat of it.
, To my way of thinking there nre
. two great evils in miner lengue ball.
There Is the man who bunks tho
public with "cheapness," and there
is tho othur extreme the man who,
because he wants to win and has
.livfPly.of money, spends niore than ha
takes In at the. turnstiles. This man
forces his associates to spend like
wise, and eventually disrupts his or
gunizntion. , .
junior lengue hnsebnll will never
achieve success in its full measure
- until these men arc eliminated from
the game. The game mutt be put In
the hands of sensible men with busi
ness ideas; men who will give the pub
lic what it nsks for its money's worth
no more, no less.
Applications should be properly
rxocuted and filed with the Commis
sion at Washington, 11. C., at the
