ARE UNABLE Hammond" Football Stars Battle to Tie With Redoubtable Racines. st rsvrro chayxen. Flaying only straight football without changing their style of play, thrice the Hammond football team played a scoreless tie af,'ainst the scrappy Racine eleven yesterday in the opening professional came of the season. The Bobcats, for some unknown reason, did not attempt any of their tip formations, while the same can he said of the vialtors, who mostly relied on the forward pass without any success. Hammond also tried a few passes hut all were incomplete. The game was entirely uninteresting save when the redoubtable Klink's Meyers was put in. He i.it the pep In pepper. The game started amid threatening skies. The visitors won the toss for the kick-off and O'Malley punted to Kins, who was stopped on the twenty yard line. Harrett, on the next play, fumbled the ball, hut recovered In time, on two more plays through center Hammond failed to gain their first down and Brickley used h's toe fior his first hoot to the Racine men. Vinnedge received the oval, but was downed by Falcon. A long: pass to McGregor was broken up by Hr3S. The rirst quarter saw much kicking- on both sides with neither side to put over a marker. At the start of the second quarter Racine wis penalized for interference1. Two end runs by Brickly failed to gain any ground. Hess on the next play through center fumbled and Mclniery recovered the ball on the fifty yard line. The visitors failed to make their down, and the former Trinity star again received the pigskin on the long punt by O'Malley. Barrett made the finest run of the game by squirting 2 3 yards on a right end run. King assisted by carrying the ball 4 yards through center. Hammond lost Its chance to score when another fumble w-as recorded. O'Connor and McGregor advanced the ball to the 25-yard Una but failed to count on the next down. The half ended -with the ball in Hammond's possession. The fact that It rained part of the time, end with the day a little too warm for football, both teams played listless ly, making It not as interesting as It should have been. Time and again, with the oval put in action, one side or the other would be laid out. The attendance indeed was disappointing as only 1.700 turned out for the game. Although the Racine team held Ham mond to a tie, which was indeed unci nected. the Bobcat players showed a finer knowledge of football than the vis- i iting eleven, and with another week of careful coaching, local fandom 1? confident that the stars will make a strong bid for the professional championship. When the third stanza opened, the rain that had seitf the fans leaping Into the grandstand ceased and Hammond played with more pep. Dea Jardien took the center Job while Rydewskl was put in Falcon's place, with the latter going tn at King's station. Overbagh relieved He?3 at quarter. Hammond drew a penalty for offside and Brickly punned to Racine. Meinsch carried the ball to the Hammond 30-yard line when it was fumbled. After Brickly had recovered the ball the Bobcats failed to gain and the latter kicked back to the center of the field where the period ended. Eeliger, the giant guard and one of the finest football performers that Hammond has turned out into tho pro raiiks, replaced Jones In the fourth period, and showed skill undreamed of by Coach Carolan- The same can be said of Meyers, another home-town product, who in the last ten minutes of play, made it possible for the Bobcats to brinjr thte ball to Racine's twelve-yard line, only to lose out for a chance to score when King, who again entered the game in place of Falcon, failed to drop kick, the ball faling short a long distance. With only two minutes of play Overbagh benched in favor of Hess, the former Indiana star, who attempted a feai that King could not do. The game ended with I Racine kicking the Dan to me oo-ri line. Detroit, who plays Parduhn's team at the auto town next Sunday, had one of their men In the rark taking notes or the game, but it can be said that he learned very little because Hammond did not uncover a single thing thnf they have shown in their practice sessions.

Recently Kid Gleasoa ,put him on first, replacing GandiL Hammond Industrial high school opened its football season Saturday by trimming the Chicago Heights team by a score of 13 to 7. It was a typical opening game and while there was little of what would be called real brilliant paying. Coach, Viinkers was able to size up his material and lay his plans for the stiff games which will follaw. Hammond's touchdowns wre made by Eearles and 'Cearlng who sho 1 themselves to be scroppy players all through the game. However, It is feared that Searles will be out of the game for several weeks. He received a bad wrench and It is believed he pulled a tendon In the back of his leg. Next Saturday the team will take or the Morgan Park Military Acodemy team. Morgan Park is considered a little out of the class of the high schoo'. team, but Mr. Viinkers believes he. has the material in his lineup to carry off the honors. Saturday the Morgan Park team beat the alumni team. Saturday's game will be played at the Hammond Athletic park. MAYWOOD A. C. DEFEAT STATE LINE JRS. The Maywood A. C. defeated the State Line Jrs. by 32 to 7. In the first five minutes of play Swede Anderson ran 25 yards for a touchdown. On the next kick-off Schenks. the former high school star, ran 35 yards for another touchdown. Anderson again circled the end for another one. Hf'.mke took the next one over on a plunge. Seidenbecker scored another-one when he Intercepted a pass and ran 40 yards. The State Line Jrs. scored their touchdown in the last three minutes of play on a pass, Xeiman to Cigrand. With a little more practice the Maywoods ought to turn out a Junior chammonshiD team. Orend, Ketcbell and Tague cannot be beat. The Maywood A. C. would like to book a game wih any 125 to 135 pound team for Sunday to be played at Morris Park if possible. Would like the Standards or North Side Twisters. The Maywood lineup Is as follows: Tague, 1. e.; Petersen. 1. t.; Otto, 1. g.; Lukmann. c; Erlckson. r. g.: Todd. r. t.; Ketchell. r. e.; Andersen, q b.: Schenks. 1. h.: Seidenbeckcr. r. h.: Heimke. f. b.

REAL FACTS ABOUT HUNGARY Continued from page five.) the support of their ecclesiastical establishments, their churches enjoying complete autonomy. It Is well worth noting also that the Roumanians in Hungary had a splendid chain of pros- ' perous banks used to a considerable extent for illegitimate political propaganda. It must be evident that the story of racial oppression in Hungary is a malicious statement. Is our government paying subsidies to any Mexican Ecceleslastical establishment In New Mexico or Texas or are we maintaining their schools where Mexican alone in taught. Yet. that ia what I Hungary, has been doing for the Roumanian, subjects and because Count Albert ADDonvi as one time minister of Instruction, compelled the etudy of 1 Magvar three hours a week, he Is attacked in the article and derided being referred to as the Angel of Peace. Let us scrutinize Rumania's conduct during the armistice, the period during which the gentlemen on and in behalf of Rumania wrote as follows: "This time Rumania refused to listen to peace conference dictation. She occupied Budapest, installed a government, and named the terms of peace which she wanted. The I-'rench are. chuckling. The American and British delegates are furious." Is it necessary to elucidate further and does this assertion not make our blood boil that in the 20th century we have a country and subjects of that country who revel in their ingratitude toward America and England, countries who made it possible for Rumania to aga'ii become a nation and who openly brag about their defiance to humanity and international laws? The long growing anti-German feeling became so strong in Hungary and

It was quite logical to I v. v, ,1 Y,a ffftvprnmpnt fori he had been the leader of the party in the Hungarian parliament, opposed from the very first to the alliance, with Gein.any, and h.ld openly even with considerable risk to his person, uvowed his friendship for America and England, and had been a radical democrat and pacifist. It is too well known that it was the allies who by their opposilicn, neglect and humiliation had drven the decent and orderly Knro'.yl government into despair. If it had given the same j some well deserved encouragement, the' chaos, bloodshed and suffering prevailing in Hungary and eastern Europe could have been avoided and bolshevlsm would never have come to" power in Hungary. The Rumanians were angered and sore beset for liaving made peace with the Central Powers. They were quite sure that in consequence of the ir treachery, the allies would never give them the coveted parts of Hungary, and the best they could hope for was some rev.sion of the peace of Bucharest. It was at this time that a note shrouded in mystery was addressed to the Roumanians Xoverber 5. 131v stating that we were not unmindful of the aspira tion of the Rumanian people without as: well as within the boundaries of the j kingdom. This, coupled with the fact' that when on November 7. 131S. Count; Karolyi with a staff of experts went to Belgrade to conclude an armistice with ; the French General Esperey. command-( er of the allied forces in the east, this, distinguished general had treated the head of Hungary, a noble ration who had dedicated in 1S96 it3 millenlum ex- j istence. as no gentlemen would think of j treating a servant, telling him that he i held the fate of Hugary in the hollow of; I his hxr.d and could destroy her by turn ing her neighbors loose on her (since fulfilled) using such language in answer i to a request to facilitate the importa-j tion of coal for the mills to keep going.) "What the h 1 do you want coal for?j A hundred years ago you used wind-j mills. Why cannot you get along withj them now?" The armistice dictated was most severe. The Hungarian army was I reduced to a little more than nothing;; one-third of Hungary was occuplid byj the allied armies, to be settled finally hy the peace conference. It was granted,! however, that the civil administration of! the occupied territory should remain In j the hands of th Hungarian govern ment. assuring the continuance of the; distribution of food and other neces-j saries of life. Accordingly in November1 the Serbian army occupied the western part of the territory laid open to occupation and the Rumanians the eastern part. The first thing the Rumanian armv did was to annex the occupied by Handvix.

It is persistently rumored that the territories, remove all the Hungarian officials who refused to take the oath of allc-giar.es to the ruler of the invaders, denationalize the Hungarian schools. discharge the Hungarian professors and test of Karolyi addressed to them and tn th.m rteaei conference. The Rumanians were not yet quite satisfied. Having madi sure that Hungary had disarmed herself, she transgressed the ll-e of demarcation, pillaging, robbing and destroyir.g everything they could lay hand upon and gradually advanced to the Rivfr Tisza. claiming soverignity over all the coveted Hungarian territory except two counties where they clashed with the Serbians. It is needless to state that the procedure was not only illegal, dishonorable and cowardly but s without a parallel in modern history that such disgraceful war shall be foreed on a disarmed country during a period of armistice. Yet the allies by their ur.mindf ullness gave their tacit approval and made Karo'yi's position more and more untenable, and finally drove what was left of Hungary into the arms of bolshevism, which could and ougit to ha"! been averted by a little Justice and humane action. What followed is too well known.

So our noble allies, the Rumanians, roached on the Hungarian preserves, while the peace conference calmly winked the other eye.

They are a hang-over of a world that was 300 years ago." It is needless to go further. However, this article would not be fulfilling its duty if one of the common practices of the Rumanian would not be recited: "On May 10th the Rumanians relying on military force declared the University of Kolozsvar to be the property of the Rumanian kingdom and decreed that the professors take an oath of fidelity to Rumania and its king.

As to the Ruminran , - . , claims, they base their claims on the theory that the Vlachs as the Rumanians had been known until recently, are the descendants of Dacians, but ' ths has been proven to be untenable, even by the Rumanians themselves. As it is now an assured fact that the VTachs are Balkan Slavs who had become Latinized In their speech between the fifth and tenth centuries. They are described by the Byzantine authors as goat herders and thieves. gradually pressed from the Adriatic shore eastward and crossed the Danube Into what was called in Hungarian documents of the 13th century Cu mania, later Ungro Vlaehia. viz. the present Vallachla, whirh was then a dependency of Hunrcry and is now the southern part of the Rumanian Kingdom. They gradually filtered into Transylvania around the 13th century. Could there be a more conclusive proof of the fallacy of the theory or the Transylvanian origin ot the Rumanians than that they have borrowed the very name of Trnslvania from the Hungarian ? They c?Il that territory Ardeal. which has no meaning whatever in the Rumanian language, being merely a corruption of the Hungarian Erdely, a contraction ot the older form Erdo-elve, meaning Transylvania or the land beyond 'be forest. If it were true that they had been there before the Hungarian, they surely would have had a came for that country and would have preserved It at least in their traditions.

It is impossible to cut out any large unbroken territory for Rumania without incorporating large minorities of Hungarians and Germans, whom It would be unjust to subject to Rumanian rule, especially because the Hungarians and Germans comprise the majority and becauso In point of educatlon and everythln, that counts for advancement they are far superior to the Rumanians. They further put forth a sentimental appeal to the union or as some say the reunion of all Rumanians in one body politic. To speak thus is foolish for what has never been united cannot be re-united. And as to the union of all Rumanians ti could never be complete as portions live in Russia and other portions on the Balkan peninsula. So, from whatever angle we examine the real facts. w come to but one decision and that Is. that tho claims of Rumania are at the expense of Hungary and call for th economic starvation and splitting up of the Hungarians, a race far superior In civilization, religious ar.d racal tolerance and political capacity to the Rumanians and that such act cannot be reconciled to Justice.
