Dear Sir:
It seems optional that of all the
beautiful climate which can be gath
ered for the mere picking, Rough
town preferred to drench itself in an
atmosphere of flying - science and
Einstein theories. Gink Fowler
was no more champion than whisk
ers are hair. Make one last, game
effort and try to tell the truth about
Slapstick Allen.
Yours until gum drops, early
springs and night falls.
PETE CARNEY,
First National Bank Building, New
Haven.
IT IS true that Roughtown had
but four seasons. Lying, deceit,
knavery and larceny. The three
R's of Roughtown -were rough,
rough and rougher. The present
congrens is not responsible. They
penciled a tax on broad axes, butch
ers' cleavers, gats, knives, brass
knuckles and jackblacks. The tax
was 10 per cent if you got it and 10
per cent if you didn't.
Roughtown crashed up in corru
gated municipal pride at this grease
stain on their unfair city. Thoughts
ran around in circles in square
heads. A big whistling meeting wa3
held in the town ab'batoir. Rough
town would stand for most anything
am' fall for the rest. '
They didn't kick when the Town
Council demanded an extra fine for
improving the condition of the town
jail. That was an improvement that
every citizen could make use of.
They didn't boil over the top when
the Roughtown Legislature plastered
a tax on- the emergency ward in the
Accident Hospital. That was also
a luxury that affected every citizen.
But. when a lot of berry-skulled
law gummers started, to lea-u a
heavy tax on axes, knives, guns,
cleavers, ccpnicstones, cigars, pen
cils,' loaded dice marked cards all
the latest magazines, fixed roulette
wheels, chewing gum. riot .clubs,
daggers and candy there was the
devil to pay and the fire out
Everybody in Roughtown was
madder than a chained watchdog at
a hobos" convention. It was brother
against brother and .father against
both. ... ' . :
Citizens' gathered in angry knots.
iThey were jolly little beggar... Like
the farmers at Concord, they an
swered them, bull for bull. This'
was too much.
What A tax on battleaxes, so
ciety joignards and delicatessen cut
lery? Notta chance. You could
tax anything in Roughtown and get
nothing
But there Was one thing the; jolly
little beggars couldn't tax. . Over
flow meetings were held under a
clogged sink. Citizens spoke out of
turn. Orators passed the lie? the
hat. and on two small pair.
The hill was repealed like a'ban
ana. The legislature curled up like
a busted clock spring and went into
cranial bankruptcy. . Roughtown
hung out banners to the breeze to
celebrate ' the glorious something.
Millions or thirsts were raised by
popular prescription. .
Never again did any Roughtown
legislature try to put a tax on sport
ing goods.

Square Stand of

Costly to Team

When Latter Were Under
Suspicion Comiskey
. Holds Bag Himself.
C. A. COMISKEY.
White Sox owner.
Possibly it does not occur to
White Sox rooters in these days of
olnnm tliat if
Owner Comis
key had been
a different kind
of a magnate he
wtould have
saved some
thing from the
wreck of his
team by trading
some or all of
the eight play
ers under suspi
cion before con
fession brought
their banish
ment from or
ganized base
ball.
There was plenty of time between
the rotten world's series of 1919 and
the exposure of its rottenness al
most a year later for the White
Sox owner to exchange his tainted
goods for at least somewhere near
their equivalent in talent that was
untainted, leaving the other club
owners to "hold the bag" when ex
posure came.
Precedent for' Trading.
The Cincinnati club traded Hal
Chase to the Giants when the lat
ter was under grave suspicion, and
that trade . helped the Reds win a
pennant. The Brooklyn club train
ed Lee Magee to the Cubs, and the
Chicago -club had to stand the loss
when Magee was unconditionally re
leased. . ', . v
Figure wbat Comiskey could have
obtained in exchange for Weaver,
Williams, Jackson and Felsch, to
sayjiothing of the rest of the eight.
Undoubtedly he could not have got
their equal in playing strength, but
there were plenty of club owners

who would have been willing to take
a chance with any one of the four
mentioned, and to give up good
players in exchange for them.
Couud. Be on Easy Street.
Cicotte and Gandil were so near
the end of their major league careers
they would not have brought much
on the market, but Risberg and Mc-
Mullm were highly negotiable goods.
With what he could have obtained
for the bunch Comiskey could have
gone smihn through last season
and this, with a possible pennant
winner both years.
For no one doubts, now the cat is
out of the hag, that the While Sox
of 1917, 1919, and 1920 could have
won their league pennants by wire
margins each year if they had tried
to, and if the eight doubtful players
had beelT scattered among the other
teams Comiskey probably could have
obtained enough, strength ja . ex
change to leave him a pennant con
tender this, year.
Commy Not That Style.
But Comiskey was not that kind.
Tune and time again when trades
were rumored he denied them with
the reiterated remark, "If there is a
black one, I want to be the one to
put him out of organized base ball
forever." And within an hour after
Cicotte spilled the story to the grand
jury all eight of the implicated
players were under indefinite sus
pension, which continued until they
were given unconditional releases .
If those players had been scattered
by trades to other, clubs it is a cinch
the facts , never would have come
out, for until Cicotte coughed up
there was not a tangible bit of evi
dence that would hold in any. court
of law.

Atlantic City, N.'J., June 3. I am
in somewhat of a quandary just now.
For some days
past I have been
bothered with my
breathing appa
ratus. and without
saying anything
to ' the boys I
went to one of
the local special
ists for a thor
ough examination
of my ' nose and
throat.
I had an op
eration performed
on my nose quite
a while ago by a
doctor in Phila
delphia but it

seems to have been entirely unsuc
cessful and now I will have to un
dergo another.
But I cannot stop my training for
a trip to the operating room and so
I will have to get along as best I
may. My breathing isn't go badly
impaired that I will not be able to
fight, but it is bad enough to cause
me discomfort. If the fight were
further off I would certainly have
the nose attended to but I can't af
ford to stop work now. The best I
can do is get daily minor and local
treatments and they will probably
help me a great deal. - ;

who performed the operation in the
ring with me for a few minutes with
or without gloves.
Mentioning gloves reminds me
that Teddy Hayes, my trainer,
brought out a pair of rubber linings
today. These are the shape of a
boxing glove and arc inflated and
then put inside the glove. This pre
vents bruising when landing a punch.
It will he a big help to my sparring
partners.
This is my last day of idleness and
all my punch trainers and myself
are, ready to go tomorrow. Jack
Renault, the Canadian; Larry Wil
liams, of Bridgeport; Martin Burke,
the New Orleans heavy, and Red
Dolan, of the same town, as well as
my old standby, Alex Trambitas,
Babe Herman and Gentleman Joe
Benjamin are on the job. I varied
my' program again today. My pal,
Mike Trant and I, started the day
with a shooting match which is be
coming a feature of my training pro
horses. We rode a few miles along
the seashore with a brisk wind whip
ping the blood into our taces. it
was great stuff and I intend to do a
little riding every now and then just
enough to. stir the blood but not
sufficient to become sore and stiff.
I had one of the newspaper men
as my guest at lunch today and
"Mother" Hutchinson, the cook, set
out fish, fried potatoes, stewed to
matoes, stewed corn, cakes, apri
cots and coffee for us.
That horseback ride certainly gave
me a relish for a heavy meal and I
did justice to Mrs. Hutchinson's 'fine
cooking. . ,
As we were getting up from the
table the big wireless telephone and
telegraph apparatus which is in the
dining room began to buzz and we
listened to a wireless call from a
passing ship One rainy day last
week I heard a man on shipboard
advising a friend by wireless that it
was a shame to have his golf
spoiled by rain. They talked about
the stock market for - awhile and
then one said "so long. Charley,"
and the other answered, "goodby
Fred, see you later."
-.After lunch I played my new
phonograph for a while and practiced
headlocks on Mike Trant to jazz
tunes and talked of this and that and
finally got around to bandages.
They were all ratiicr surprised
when I told them that in my early
days 1 had a lew lights m which I
did not use any bandages under the
gloves. Of course, I was taking a
chance on breaking tny hands but in
those days I was always willing to
risk anything but I was lucky.
Nowadays I use a lighter bandage
than most boxers. Just enough- of
smooth soft cotton wrapped around
the knuckles to fit somfortably and a
foot or two of adhesive tape to keep
it in place is all I need. I usually
bandage by. own hands while train
ing, but for a big fight. my manager,
Jack Kearns attends .to the job.
It is just as important to have a
small detail like bandaging done well
as it is to have big thinRs just so.
I had an early dinner after the ball
game, took a short walk and got
under the covers about 10 o'clock.
