I'Much Ado About Nothing - J Arthur Schatjpp is under fire. His right to hold the position of city attorney has been challenged on the groond that he had not been a resident of Klamath Falls for jtwo years to assuming the official position. The cajjj has passed the talking stage.- Yesterday a. lawsuit file by Frank Pecholt took the question into circuit court where it will eventually be settled before the circuit judjre." ( To the Evening Herald the affair seems to be "much ado! about nothing." . . . . Let us grant, hypothctically, that allegations in the complaint filed yesterday by Frank Pecholt, are correct Will that change the personnel of the city official family?. JWill it throw the administration into a tur moil? " If the city attorney realizes he received the appoint mcrjt before he had resided two years in Klamath Falls, .we believe he will quietly resign. Mayor Tom Watters will then undoubtedly reappoint him and the council wiUjbe unanimous in its approval of the appointment. .... fio shadow could be cast upon the second appoint melt if such action became necessary for the simple reason that the city attorney's residence in this city would far exceed the two-year period stipulated in the city charter. ... jVithout casting any. doubt on the sincerity of the plaiitiff in the action, the Herald calls its readers at tention to the fact that any taxpayer so minded can search statute books, the constitution, city charters and could probably find technical grounds on which to oust anyjofficiaL ... Such actions usually end with the defendant official Btiltfin office. - They serve the one purpose of filling the ne4s and editorial columns and providing active subject of local interest to discuss. (The simple facts are that Schaupp is the administra tions choice as city attorney, that he has given excel 'lentf service to the city since his tenure of office began, and that the majority of people are unwilling that a legl technicality one of thousands that burden the government of cities, counties and states of this nation should be the cause of his retirement.

' ' fthletic honors, either amateur or semi-professional, seldom been Klamath's lot It has been the old Btorjr; "To win one must have interest; to have interest onejmust win." . . Klamath, by virtue of romping through the first half of tfie Southern Oregon baseball league, stands an even chance of bringing home one of the few championships eveit annexed by a Klamath team.' One thing is necessary a large crowd at the game. Witt a grandstand chock-full of rabid fans, and with weafc spots in the Pelican lineup bolstered up, the chances of victory in. the first game are good. j city ball team is a municipal project which pro vides exciting and inexpensive amusement and which, in return,' expects the support of the citizens it represents. . I - . . v. J . ! The Park Board Acts ' Action of the city park board in providing for con struction of four tennis courts in various districts of Kla math Falls has met with widespread approval. v "Belief has been extant during the past two years, thatj the board has been in a constant state of legarthy. With 48,000 in its jeans, the board, until quite recent-' ly, Had taken few steps toward the development of city park properties, and, in particular, the beautiful Moore city Vk along the south shore of Upper Klamath lake. the board has now swung into action. Brush is being cleared from. Moore park, a well is being dug, a contour map of, the property has been drawn and a landscape engineer will soon submit a definite plan of development Possibilities of development of the Moore tract ; are unlimited and the board plans to expend a large part of its present funds on this prospect The present and fu ture 'work to be done on the tract will be mapped out in detail, step by step, so that the devlopment will be order ly and constructive. Brooklyn Dally Kusle: Pr. Thaddeua L. Bolton, professor of psychology at Temple univer sity. Philadelphia, is undoubtedly right In his theory that a man who will atand In the line for hours for a seat In the bleachers and then about himself hoarse rooting for his favorite baseball team is lacking In mental jolo. suffering from hypertrophy. which to the brain Is what boils, bunions and corns are to the body. Hysterical deration to a single snort" la only a symptom. But the art of the onvtor is to suggest a lot more than be says, and in this Prof. Bolton excels. "Hypertrophy" is a de lightfully expansive theme. How about that hysterical de votion to a particular means of reforming the human race? Fori example, vegetarianism or anti tobacco agitation, or even prohi bition. That In innumerable sad casea of this affliction the sense of perspective is wholly lost is a matter ot common observation. And how about hysterical de votion to a given religious creed, with all that that can possibly Imply. In a land where Calvin's way ot treating Servetus Is no longer practicable. "Orthodoxy la my doxy, heterdoxy la some other man's doxy." Any tolerably good logician could write a fine monograph on the varying forma ot hypertrophy. When the Ideal of 'a sound mind la a aound body has been achieved the corns and bolls and bunions of psychology will sub side and the world will be a lot better worth living in.

Ills words stand forth from a troubled background: "I bcllevo the stage needs a censor, but no rensunhip." Mr. Towse had said everything there is to be said. Ho places his finger anon the core of truth. He continues: "Censorship is theoretically necessary, but It 4a impossible to find a man who could qualify aa censor a man of culture and background uuj understanding and an artistic perception and common sense and, above all. tact and discretion." Mr. Towse is 82 years old and has been a newspaperman since 1.170. always on the suine dully journal. He was a "star" man before some now elderly Journal istic executives were born. He has outlived all his contempo raries, but not his acute percep tions. He has bridged In him self the eras ot "the Klder" Booth and "Abie's Irish Rose" and has been benignant with both. What Is going on In some sections of the theater pains him, but he knows too much to take it tragically. What a background. It Is the earnest hope of everybody with the best Interests ot the drama at heart that he will publish his reminiscences. No man living could tell so much as he. or tell it so well.' A man with such a sound comprehension of whr.it the whole censorship problem impli cates fills his own requirements of common sense, tact and dis cretion.
