storming will be eliminated from thi
spring training trip of the Clevelam
American league club this season

club barnstormed through Texas am

teams injured in the war, according
to A. F. Timme, president-of tht

the time our players left for the army
and navy,” Mr. Timme said. “I am
of the opinion the club owners will set
aside part of the receipts for players
I
wounded in France and incapacitated
for life. Tommy Qulnlln, outfield*#
for Jde Tinker of the Columbia team,
had the worst luck of any player in
our organization, so far as we have
been able to learn. Two of the Mil
waukee players saw active service,
but neither suffered injuries.”

be no spring training trip for the
Columbus club of the American asso
. elation. President Joe Tinker has ten
. tatively planned to have the players

Bloomington and Decatur the plan
would work satisfactorily. Spring
field is under a handicap. There is
no baseball park here and the old
grandstand used in previous years
has been dismantled. A new grand
stand would cost about $10,000. he
said.

WOMEN ACTIVE
ASMEMBERSOF
LEGISLATURE
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Feb. 25 (by
Associated Press).—Greater support
from the state for elementary schools,
equality for women with men under
the law and establishment of a home
for delinquent women, are the meas
ures for which California’s first
women legislators are working here.
In addition to these, each of the four
assembly women are advocating other
bills.
Mrs. Anna L’ Saylor of Berkeley
wants the state to appropriate $20,000
to establish a child hygiene bureau
under the state board of health to as
sist the “better babies,” movement
carried forward by club women and
others. She also favors the plan to
establish a psychopathic hospital at
San Quentin so defective criminals
may be properly treated.
State and federal aid for the con
struction of a highway along the
Feather river is sought by Mrs. Eliza
beth Hughes of Oroville. She will al
so 3eek appropriations for the Chico
state normal school and will support
the proposal for the extension of the
land settlement colony at Durham.
Mrs. Grace Dorris of Bakersfield
and Miss Esto Broughton of Modesto
are also particularly interested in the
development of the Durham project.
Miss Broughton said she hopes the
state will assist soldiers and sailors
in settling on the land, and Mrs. Dor
ris is interested in having the clause
in Secretary Lane'3 land settlement
plan bill, providing that idle lands
may be condemned; incorporated in
any new land settlement law. Mrs.
Doprls said she favors this as a meas
ure to qompel large land companies in
the San Joaquin valley to sell part of
their holding^, which, she said, they
have refused to do.
Placing of a public defender in
every county is another object Mrs.
Dorris said she hopes to accomplish.
She said it was obviously wrong that
the state should place all its influence
behind the prosecution in criminal
cases, providing no really competent
laa’ol AAIIMAa) f ah /) nfnnn/v
Measures" In behalf of labor will
have Mrs. Dorris* support, she said.
She had introduced a bill to limit to
ton hours of domestic servants. She
plans to offer a measure to establish
at Berkeley a separate school for the
blind, dividing the present California
school for the deaf and blind Into two
sections. Mrs. Dorris introduced a
resolution to memoralize congress to
act favorably on the federal women’s
suffrage bill. She also offered a meas
ure to exempt from attachment motor
trucks where they are being used in a
man’s business, automobiles valued at
less than $1,000, and phonographs.
“The family flivver should not be at
tached,’’ said Mrs. Dorris. A change
in the civil service so that competent
persons shall not be discriminated
against because of physical afflictions
has been proposed by Mrs. Dorris.
Measures to prevent undue depres
sion of state irrigation district bonds,
and other measures favored by the
California Irrigation District associa
tion, are to have the support of Miss
Broughton. She said she will urge
extension of the reclamation program
for the assistance of returned fighting
men, and legislation to permit irriga
tion districts to develop power.
Collection of small bills will be
made easier. Miss Broughton said, if
a bill she will offer passes. This
wbuld provide that actions to collect
small claims may be taken up by
justice of the peace informally, thus
eliminating the legal expense that
usually makes such action inadvis
able.
Mrs. Hughes and Mrs. Saylor were
ill during the fore part of the session
and were handicapped in getting their
bills into shape. All of the women
legislators have expressed approval
of the proposal to reduce the number
of bills and shorten the session.
