NOT A NECESSITY. suppose any screed dealins the sub.iee of bashall he-Ion . on. the sporting paee, but we are ivl Roing to incur the wrath of the sporting editor by i.-kina him for spae.- for This Kind of a baseball editorial. Baseball mdzna'es, and we of course have here to do with magnates at the head of 'he reat leasues, have not endeared themselves very much to the coneral pu'v lic because of their attitude to the war insofar as it affects the sport thev profess to sponsor. The John D. Rockefellers of baseball mishr just as well understand risht off the bat that this nation wi',1 never die out it' professional baseball is thrown into the discard entirely. Th ball players, who are of the fine.-t physitju". should be fighting the kaiser anyway. They belong ia the trenches instead of on the diamond. It is all very well for the magnates to say that the nation needs relaxation and amusement. The nation can set alcns very well without professional baseball. ?u:n of us see a bi? league game about once in ten years and then are bored to death by five innings of it, so it i ridiculous to claim that baseball is a necessity. All lux

uries should be cut out for

that it is the mayor's business and not. theirs. i Y believe that. Mr. Brown made some coo-.l appoint- j ments. As to whether some of the m-m he chose will be j a credit to bis administra' ion Mmo will only ! 11. Ilccarse ! a man is a barber by trade, it does not follow that he w.ll j not make a lmvhI controller. Th" new controller-io-be was j preceded in oftice by the best eouttolbr Hammond ever j bad. Ken his bu.-ies? enemj it" be has one canno' say j that Mr. Smalley was no' ;.n A No. 1 controller, for bis j rt nutation in that line was unimpeachable. j

The
