The New York Yaskees man
; age to keep baseball in the
: news daily by overpowering
! itheir opposition in Japan, and
| two renowned baseball figures
' passed from the scene as death
claimed Clark Griffith and Cy
Young.
We never saw Young during
the period when, as a tall, ro
bust pitcher, he was in the pro
cess of compiling his record of
511 victories, a mark which he
always claimed was one shy of
the actual total.
i We only knew him in his
later years, or aifter that great
frame had become stooped and
as gnarled as the cane he al
ways carried. |
He was a familiar figure at j
any gathering oif old-time dia'
mond stars, puffing iaway at his
curved stem pipe, taking a nip 1
when so inclined, holding up
his end of the conversation,
whether the talk was *of the
good old dayls or current base
ball activities. ,
For he didn't dwell entirely ’
in the past. He was interested
in the youngsters, and we doubt
if he missed a Li; tie League
World Series at Williamsport,
Fa., where he would alertly
follow the play of the tykes and
sign autographs iby the dozen, i
But he did love to i.alfk about
his glory days, and glory days
they were. He had a phenom
enal memory, and, like a golf ,
pro who can remember prac- !
tically every round he ever
played. Young could recite de-,
tails of scores of his games. I
He didn’t belittle current
ball players but he was puz
zled by the fact pitchers al
ways were complaining of sore'
arms. He just couldn’t figure
out why anyone should get a
sore arm from throwing a base
ball.
Delegates' ideas
sent four divisions offer a good
basis for state subdivisions.
On the issue of how many
elective officers there should
be, aside from the legislature,
there was a (tendency toward a
greement on there being only
a few.
There would be the governor
of course, and presumably a
lieutenant (governor, although

most did not mention such an
office.
Sen. William Egan of Valdez,
a Democratic leader in the 1955
territorial 'senate, summarized
the case this way:
“I am tin favor Of a strong ex-!
ecutive branch of government,
in order that, the people might
ever be alble to place the finger
of responsibility without (buck
passing. There should Ibe a min
imum of other elective offici
als. One office I feel should
most certainly remain elective
is that of the s'iate attorney
general. It would seem Ito me
that this would provide a safe
guard against a strong chief ex
ecut ive 'usurping the powers of
his office.
The subject of fishtraps in
territorial Waters appears cer
tain to come up as a constitu
tional issue. Two delegaes stat
ed they will offer proposals
thai: traps Ibe outlawed. I
Among other proposals men
tioned iby (the polled delegates,
MoNeeis staid he would favor
dropping Of the voting alge to
19, and Maurice T. Johnson of
Fairbanks added:
“I ibelieve in separation of
church land State; therefore I
will submit lifoe proposal that
no public funds foe used for re
ligious or theological institu
tions. I also Ibelieve in the right
to work laws now adopted in 18
states.”
Whatever the final form of
the constitutional draft, a bit
of the flavor of historic tradi
tion will enter the convention
room with the 55 delegates.
That was the nuimiber who sat
in the United States constitu
tional convention more than a
century and a ihalif ago.
The result of their endeavors
must foe presented to the peo
pie of Alaska for a yes or no
vote fin from 40' to 120 days af
Iter they drop the curtain on
their session at the university.
Then it will be up to congress.
