Evolution By Langdon Smith WHEN you were a tadpole and.l was a fish, In the Paleozoic time, And side by side on the ebbing tide, We sprawled through the ooze and slime, Or skittered with many a caudal flip Through the depths of the Cambrian fen, My heart was rife with the joy of life, For I loved you even then. I FLAKED a flint to a cutting edge, And shaped it with brutish craft; I broke a shank from the wood land bank, And fitted it. head and haft, t Then I hid me close to the reedy tarn, Where the mammoth came to drink; Through brawn and bone I drove the stone, And slew him upon the brink. LOUD I howled through the moonlit wastes, Loud answered our kith and kin. From west to east, to the crim son feast The clan came trooping in. O’er joint and gristle and pad ded hoof, We fought, and clawed and tore, And cheek by jowl, with many a growl, We talked the marvel o’er. I CARVED that fight on a reindeer bone, With rude and hairy hand. I pictured his fall on the cavern wall, That men might understand. For we lived by blood, and the right of might, \Ere human laws were drawn. And the age of Sin did not begin Til our brutal tusks were gone. AND that was a million years ago, In a time that no man knows: Yet here tonight in the mellow light We sit at Delmoijico’s; Your eyes are deep as the Devon springs, Your hair is as dark as jet. Your years are few; your life is new, Your soul untried, and yet OUR trail is on the Kim eridge clay, And the scarp of the Purbeck flags. We have left our bones in the Bagsho stones, And deep in the coraline crags; Our love is old—our lives ire r old And death shall come amain Should it come today, what man may say We shall not live again. GOD wrought our souls from j the Tremadoc beds And furnished them wingi to fly. He sowed our spawn in the world’s dim dawn, And I know that it shall not die. Though cities have sprung above the graves Where the crook-boned men made war, And the ox-wain creaks o’er the buried caves Where the mummied mam moths are. Then as we linger at luncheon here. O'er many a dainty dish. Let us drink anew to the time when you t Were a tadpole and I was a fish. DELfiYIS LIKELY MUI HEARING I Dry Agent, Accused of As sault on Lawyer, Is Away From City Samuel L.

TESTIMONY OF BRYAN RULED OUT Malone Laments Bara Placed Upon Defense in Fighting for Leader By WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON, International News Service. COURTHOUSE, Dayton, Tenn., July 2L—The Tennessee anti-evo- lution case with its violent con flict between fundamental religion and science over the creation of man came to an abrupt end today when a jury convicted John Thomas Scopes of violating the law prohibiting the teaching of evolution in the public schools. By WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON, International New* Service. COURTHOUSE, DAYTON, Tenn., July 21.—Attorneys for John Thomas Scopes, young high school professor, today entered an agreement in open court to have their client found guilty by the jury in the anti-evolution trial. The decision wiped out the' last j vestige of the Scopes’ defense, be cause it barred all religious testi -1 mony from the trial. With their scientists excluded last week, the Scopes attorneys closed their case and the jury was called in to wind up the trial. Given No Hearing. "Our defense witnesses are ex cluded, we are denied the right to cross-examine the State’s witnesses,” said Dudley Field Malone. •‘There Is no need of going on, so we close our case.” Thd agreement came after Pre siding Judge John T. Raulston bar red all the defense’s religious wit nesses from the stand, excluded j their scientists and expunged the testimony given yesterday by Wil liam Jennings Bryan. It virtually i ended the case, as opposing attor neys waived their summing up 1 speeches. The judge instructs the jury to bring in a verdict. In a sensational effort to end the conflict between science and re i ligion. Judge Raulston expunged the spectacular testimony of Wil liam Jennings Bryan from the record of the trial. I The court said this action was taken because Bryan's defense of his faith in the Bible had no bear ing on the Issues of the anti-evolu tion trial. Hatred Checked. i The court made his unexpected ruling as the result of a personal appeal from Attorney General A. i Thomas Stewart, head of the prose j cution, who told newspapermen he would move to expunge the Bryan testimony if the Judge did not act. Bryan sat at counsel table, during the proceeding, eager to resume the stand and more eager to examine Clarence Darrow as was agreed upon at yesterday’s session. The judge’s ruling in j ferentially barred Darrow from the i stand. An exception to the order was taken immediately by defense coun sel. Darrow told the court the testimpny was germane to the de fense contention that the Bible can not be interpreted literally. That brought Bryan to hie feet, holding his fan. He addressed the court with great seriousness. "I fully agree with the court that the testimoiu: taken wxj

(Continued from First Pdgc.) not legitimate or proper,” said Bry an. "I was not in a position to raise an objection myself nor was I willing to have it raised for me without ascertaining my willing ness to be cross-examined.” Then turning to the court, Bryan asked, “You expunged the questions as well as the answers?” “Yes,” replied Judge Raulston. Darrow is Cynical. “I shall make a statement to the press, giving them a list of questions, which I would have asked defense counsel if they had taken the witness stand as they they would,*' Bryan added. “Go out on the lawn and make that speech,” said Darrow, drawling “I object to the speech.” Bryan charged the defense with “hiding behind a screen of the law. M "I object to that” Darrow shouted. “We are willing to meet Mr. Bryan for further discussion of this subject in any forum that Tie chooses,” shouted Dudley Field Malone. Announcing that he would ex punge Bryan’s testimony, the judge I said: X “Since beginning of this trial, f the judge has had many big prob I leans to pass upon. If I have made a mistake, we shall find out when the higher courts pass upon this case. If I did err, it was an erro’* of the heart and not of the'mind. Overzeal Is Blamed. “As I see it, there are two ways by which the court might commit j error; first, by passion of the mind, and second, by an overzeal to be fair. The court feels he showed an overzeal in permitting Mr. Bryan to testify. “I feel that the testimony of Mr. Bryan can shed no light upon any issue before a higher court. The issue is whether Mr. Scopes taught that man came from a lower order of animals. It ts not a question whether God created man all at once or whether God created him by a slow process. “As I see it, after due delibera tion, Mr. Bryan’s testimony cannot aid the higher courts in determin ing that issue. Therefore I am Pleased to expunge the testimony of Mr. Bryan from the record.” It was a chance remark by the judge which signalled the col lapse of the trial. In comment ing on the exclusion of religion witnesses, the judge said the only question before him vqM whether Scopes taught evolution and he thought the professor had. “Well, if he’s guilty,” drawled the impeturbable Darrow, “there’s nothing left but to bring in the verdict.” With that, Darrow approached the judge’s stand, called the State's Attorneys to Ms side and saM, “I’ll enter into an agreement right now to have my client found guilty and well end the trial,” •’That suits me,” said Attorney General A. Thomas Stewart, chief of prosecution. “It’s All Over,** Says Darrow. “All right, it’s all over noV,” Darrow said with a snap of his suspenders. “Let the clerk enter it on the record and we’ll all go home.” “Let’s have it regular,” retorted Stewart. “The judge should In struct the jury. We can waive closing arguments, but you can’t waive the verdict and expect to appeal the case.” “Well, I’ll leave that to you Ten nessee lawyers,” Darrow replied. 1 “Will you help m« arrange our appeal?” Darrow asked Stewart. “Yes. sir; we’ll do all we can.” The attorneys then told the judge they wanted him to instruct the jury without hearing closing argu ments or any further testimony. The judge agreed, recessing court to prepare his charge. Bryan’s Hate Tor Darrow. f The hatred of William Jennings Bryan, outstanding fundamentalist, for his legal opponent, Clarence Darrow, a self-styled agnostic, drove the trial beyond the control of Presiding Judge John T. Rauls ton. It was Bryan who agreed to appear as a voluntary witness for the defense—although his testimony was admittedly out of order —mere- ly for the sake of getting Darrow on the witness stand for his own examination. “We called Bryan to show that no man of intelligence accepts the Bible literally,” said Hays. “Bryan is a Bible scholar, and he agrees with us that this world may be ages old because the story of crea tion cannot be accepted literally.” After hearing Darrow question Bryan, there can be no doubt that Bryan wants to examine Darrow. -The Commoner, given widespread applause at the opening of the battle of wits,” found Darrow get ting the greater hand at the close. Darrow Corners Commoner. There was the time when Dar row turned to ask a colleague what word meant the science of lan guages, and Bryan heard the whis pered reply, “Oh, any word will do for him.” And, again, when Darrow asked him about the age of civilization, Bryan answered, “I don’t think about what I don’t think about,” only to hear the Chicagnuu ask, with studied insolence, “Do you think about what you do think about?” A third time Darrow read of the fall, of Adam and Eve and the'pun Ishment of the serpent, made thence forth to crawl on Its belly. “Do you believe that?” Darrow asked. “Yea.” said Bryan. "How do you suppose the serpent W. J. BRYAN AND JUDGE TALK IT QVER _ Jg|s 111 I 'YUR sir i BJIK 1 EM s

Twice Bryan doubted the literal ists’ version the Divine creation. Once, be 1 sakf that the days re ferrer to in lionesis were “not days of twenty-four Mons each.” Then he declared that there were three days and three nights before God made the sun, moon and stars. But again he’denied that the days were twenty-four hours apiece. Their length he could not determine. This was a real victory for the defense as ail their scientists in reconciling the theory of evolution to the Divine creation maintained that the earth, man and animals were created over a long period nf time —millions of years.' Bryan con firmed this as It related to the earth. He did indorse, however, the Biblical story of man created from dust.

LONDON, July 21. —Grave fears were entertained here today for the safety of D national News Service LONDON, July 2JL&C-Another di vorce case involving the English smart set came up today and drew from the presiding judge the com ment that it was "odious and dis gusting.” The case involved cross petitions of Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin Raper, the former once a member of parliament, and the latter, the former Marchioness Conyngham. The husband’s petition named Dan Metz as corespondent. When Raper's solocitor requested that because of the nature of the evidence the case be heard in camera, th* .fudge, In over ruling the suggestion, remarked with fll-concealed scorn:. “1 can’t imagine anyone listening to this case unledh duty required it." Mrs. Raper, before her marriage to her present husband, was the divorced wife of the Marquess Conyngham. Raper’s solicitor, Sir Edward Mar shall HaH. the famous advocate, said she had collapsed an hour be fore her marriage with Raper, due to alcohol. She promisikl her husband she would go on the "water-wagon” and leave alcohol entirely alone after her marriage. This promise she failed to keep, Sir Edward told the court, but in stead "went on with her regular life, frequenting night clubs and dances and generally following what seemed to be the normal trend of society life.” Counsel for Raper went into de tails regarding acenes in which Mrs. Raper struck her husband, threatened to shoot him, and spat in his face. He declared that although Mrs. Raper never made complaint against her husband, she had filed a cross petition for divorce containing a "diabolical charge.” While counsel argued whether this accusation should be read out in court, it developed it was Mrs. Raper’s charge that three days after their wedding Raper acted unnaturally.

She does this, it is explained, because the defendant has refused to return the monev. She asks also for an accounting. The complaint was filed here by Matthew C. Fleming, a lawyer of 170 Broadway. Inquiry at Mr. Fleming’s office disclosed the fact that only one copy of the complaint had been sent here and that the only information had here was con tained in the papers. Lawrence Copley Thaw first ap peared in the newspapers here In January, when he was seven teen years old. An order made at that time by Surrogate Fowler appointed Frank C. Turnei as his i guardian. The appointment was due to a statement that Frederick E. Young of Oatman, Ariz., his step father, would contest the will of his mother, Mrs. Freda Marsh Young, because she had not mentioned her second husband tn her will. The papers explained that Mrs. Young’s first husband, the father of Law rence. was Edward T. Thaw, who was a half brother of Harry K." Thaw, from whom Mrs. Young was divorced in 1905. The will bequeathed one-half of l the estate to friends and relatives and the remaining half to Lawrence, from which was derived an annual income of $31,000. During the con test of the will Lawrence was to re trive an annual income of SB,OOO. and two months after the appoint ment of his guardian the latter, ‘hrough counsel, applied for an al lowance for Lawrence of $25,000 a year. The application was allowed and later the entire income from the fund left him was paid over to his credit. In April, 1924, Lawrence and Miss Margaret Ludlow Stout were mar ried and thereafter little was heard «:f the defendant In the pending ac tion except accounts of his social activities. "Word from Pittsburgh was in the form of a statement by United States Senator David A. Reed, of counsel for Mrs. Thaw, who said (hero was little background in the case, that while Mrs. Thaw was ill her grandson played upon jjer sym pathy and obtained the $600,000. Senator Reed said that Mrs. Thaw ssvmpathized with her grandson and gave him the amount sued for in cash at different times. At the Park Lane, 299 Park ave nue, where Lawrence Copley Thaw hss an apartment, it was said that he had gone to Rye for the sum mer. His Rye address was not known at the Park Lane.

They recommended especially the removal of the special 'service charge of 2 cents on parcels post and the increased rate on majlingy cards as being injurious to the farmer. E. B. Reed, of the American Farm Bureau Federation, declared that a “house-cleaning” in the postal serv ice would resnlt in a large saving to the people and give better serv ice. He said that from $15,000,900 to $20,000,000 could be lopped off the cost of postal service by more effi cient management. A reorganization of the rural serv ice and reduction of residential de liveries to one a day would save $15,000,000 annually, Reed said. A. L.

With virtually all\ possible major reductions in Government expense accomplished, the Bu reau of the Budget has launched a new economy drive that goes down to a careful scrutiny of pennies and nickels, and maximum tax efitting by the next Congress is the objective.

President Colldge has limited Gov ernnfent* expense exclusive of postal costs to $3,000,000,000 for the year ending June 30, 1927. This figure, in spite of the fact that the Gov ernment is the greatest growing business In the world, is mote than $150,000,000 under that expended for the year ending June 30, 1925. With the public debt reduction totalling approximately $50,000,000 as a result of cutting the debt, about $100,000,000 mst be chopped off (the estimates of the Govern mental departments.

THE WASHINGTON TIMES TAe National Daily TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1925 BRITISH GOURI I BARB HANOI DIVORGE Denies Decree to Wife Whose Mate Wanted to Wed Second Woman f By International News Service. LONDON, July 21.—Should a wife be allowed to divorce her hus band for the mere fact that th© husband wishes to marry woman? Should the courts be used to en able a man to break one matri monial obligation in order that he can enter into another? These two questions have been answered by the British divorce court with a strong negative. This was the story: Mrs. Alice Lucy Buszard, of London, petitioned the court for the dissolution of her marriage with Roland Buszard, al leging misconduct. She complained about his conduct with another woman in October, 1923. And the husband wrote her, at that time, this letter: “I am going to aek you to keep your word. I am going to appeal to’ your womanhood and sense of fairness. “A few years ago, in one of v our letters’to me, you said, if possible, you would divorce me, for my sake. "At the time it was impossible, but now .the lawxis altered, and to prove misconduct only will give you yottr freedom." "This looks very much like col lusion," said Judge Rigby Swift, after hearing thia letter read. "I am here," he continued, "to give relief to innocent persons who have been wronged by marital' offence, tut not to make it easier for those who have broken one matrimonial bond to enter into another.” Noel Middleton, the wife’s lawyer, argued that the whole queetion was whether there was an agreement between the husband and wife. If tji e wife 4iad changed her mind be cause of the entreaties of the/hus band, he continued, that was not evidence of collusion _to obtain a divorce. r "I really did not want to divorce him. I only changed my mind so that he could marry the other girl," said Mrs. Buszard on the stand. “Are you particularly anxious,” asked the judge, “that your hus band should marry someone else, or did he persuade you to do it?” “Well, he keeps on worrying me to divorce him,” returned Mrs. Buszard. Whereupon the judge dismissed the petition for divorce both on the grounds of collusion and public policy and laid it down clearly that in England an erring spouse can not persuade his partner to agree to a divorce merely because he is anxious to marry another woman. l SHIPTTTLES 4 BITS 111 lit TYPHOON Pacific Liner Arrives at Manila Late Due to Crew Walk Out By International News Service.

SEGURITTPAGT PROPOSALS LAUOED French Press Holds German Note Opens Way for New World Peace By FRANK E. MASON International News Service. PARIS, July 21. —Germany’s re ply to France’s security pact pro posals, characterized by the French foreign minister as satisfactory and affording a basis for further nego tiations, met a friendly reception in the Parisian press today. "World peace has taken im portant step forward,” seemed the almost unanimous opinion. Although foreign minister Briand did not make the text of the Ger man note public, his announcement of the favorable Impression created by its contents furnished commen tators with the foundation for optimisms, In place of the air of pessimism which has hung over security pact discussions recently. Peace Die Cast Germany has cast the die for peace based on the League of Nations, in place of adventures with Moscow, was the opinion of Gaulois. With more conservatism, Le Martin expressed satisfaction with Germany’s answer, but pointed i out the difficulties of the negotia tions which will follow.

Hit By Army Paper. The only adverse note was sound ed by the army’s favorite news paper, Echo De Paris, which warn ed its readers that a "chasm exists between the French and the Ger man conceptions of a peace pact.” "France’s ideal is the protection of the European system founded on the Versailles treaty,” the news paper continued, "whereas Ger many’s dream is to obtain revenge for the provisions of the treaty and isolation of France through the -league and by preventing Anglo- French preparedness.” Conciliatory, Says London.

4 JEAN ELIOT’S NEWS AND GOSSIP OF SOCIETY WOMAN’S PARTY CAPTURES LION Doris Stevens to Speak at Headquarters on Day ton Adventures By JEAN ELIOT. ECHOES from Dayton, the cen ter of the controversy be tween evolution and William Jennings Bryan, will, be heard in Washington on Thursday evening when Doris Stevens will spvak at the headquarters of the National Woman’s Party on her recent ex periences in the little Tennessee town upon which the eyes of the world have been centered. Although not appearing offi cially,” Miss Stevens may be de scribed as the only woman who has had actual participation in the x- Scopes trial, as she prepared some of the briefs used by her husband, Dudley Field Malone, whose im passioned plea for the freedom of education was perhaps the high light of the trial to date. An ardent advocate of the princi ples of Lucy Stone League, Miss Stevens’ insistence upon using her own name is sadi to have caused a tempest in a teannt in Dayton, and it is more or less au thentically reported that tnere were many consultations among pro nrletors and owners of the Dayton Hofei before she was permitted to occupy a room with her husband, wife bears a different name. Stevens is to be a guest at •irffiie Woman's Party headquanei-s, where Miss Alice Paul, the "peer less leader,” is again in residence: and on Thursday evening there win be a reception in the garden at head quarters for the visitor, with such of the party leaders as are in town taking part. “Peerless Leader’s” Program Proves To Be Very Interesting, Think what you please about the methods of the Woman's Party, its members certainly have an apt? tude for getting things done. And Miss Paul’s experiment in organiz ing an international advisory coun cil to lobby before International gatherings much as the Woman’s Party advisory council has lobbied before Congress on matters preta.’n- Ing to equal rights for women, will be watched with great interest. The Woman’s Paity is, of course,, lining up solidly behind Mrs. Robert M. LaFollette in an effort to per suade her to run for her husband’s place in the Senate. The Govern ment Workers* Council and the Students* Council aic. also backing Mrs. LaFoliette. To their offers of support she has expressed much gratitude, but she has refused to commit herself definitely about run ning and her friends seem to think that «he would rather have the honor go to her son, "Bob, J*.” Peo ple who know the political situation in Wisconsin, however, concede thajt Mrs. LaFoUette could carry the State. 4 GREEK ENVOY *AG AIN AT BUENA VISTA.

BLACK SUN RAYS JOLT GRAVITATION tHEORY MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July 21. —H. J. Smith, an engineer, has physicists here fn a quahdery and admitting there may be a joker in the Newton theory regarding the forces that keep the earth in its orbit. The quandary is the result of positive demonstrations with what Mr. Smith has termed the hitherto undiscovered "black rays’’ of the sun. Science has held that the sun exerts a pulling power on the earth and that this, with centrifugal force, hast kept terra firma in its place. Smith set up a delicately constructed weighing* instrument with a dial and pointer. The pointer indicated the full rays of the sun seemed to exert a pushing instead of a pulling effect. Smith called in Doctor Henry A. Erikson, pead of the physics de partment, University of Minnesota, and other scientists, and they could hardly believe their eyes as they saw the mysterious force exert a’ greater pushing power than ever. niE,° Ct< i r Er,kßon at °nc« canceled plans for a vacation and locked himself in his laboratory construct of the Sm lth “attracto strlßß of experiments, to arlve out a statement, but admitted frankly that he can that he IxBB Been and i« exert- ing a pushing force on the earth, folm C itß work cut out to 2 rr 8 thßor y to take the place of tan K lea,t w J p lemen t the Newton tan theory of gravitation.

IRIS CALLED GREATEST ISSUE Dr. Sidney L. Gulick Cites Five Urgent World Problems CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y., July 21. The solution of the war problem Is the greatest moral question be fore' the churches of the world, Doctor Sidney L. Gulick, of the Federal Council of Churches, de clared today in speaking before the Chautauqua conference on interna tional relations. FM-e urgent world problems face the United States from the view point of the churches, according to Doctor Gulick. "The first problem Is that of a new world order free from the menace of war," said Doctor Gu lick. "This may be summed up under the headings: The perma nent Cow*t of International Jus tice, the League of Nations, secur ity, disarmament and the outlawry of war. “The second problem concerns the white and yellow races. This includes re-establishing right rela tions with Japan in regard to the immigration law and helping the nations of the West to adopt sucn commercial, political and treaty re lations with China that China will feel she is receiving courteous and equal treatment. "Russia is the third problem. This involves such attitudes and treatment of Russia that she may be brought in the circle of the na tions which co-operate for the or derly development of economic, in dustrial and social institutions and permanent international peace. "The fourth problem is that of our relations with Europe. Press ing, indeed, at the present is the question of allied debts to the United States. Another important question is how to co-operate with the League of Nations in general world interests. “The fifth great problem is that of Mexico. This country should treat Mexico from a Christian point of view.” CRYING BABY GIVES ALARM THAT SAVES 3 FROM FIRE ALLENTOWN, July 21.—A cry ing one-year-old baby gave an alarm that probably saved the lives of three members of the family of ■William McNeal, of this city, whose home was on fire.

In spite of the fact that Sum mer is considered a silly season and seaside romances are sup posed to end in a foolish foam upon the shores of our heart, it's, a cinch that some vacation (Ur tations will develop into affairs and end in marriage. Love gets everybody sooner or later. Life without love is like food without salt. It’s a thousand times better to have “loved and lost than never to have loved at all!” Even those who sound the most soured on love, have lov**d in their time, and the fact that they are so soured on it, proves that they were ultra-sentimental or they could have forgotten all about it. Some love more and some love less, but everyone loves a little. Some may sigh in secret over some ideal they never hope to meet, and others may cry a lit tle over some love that proved false. Life can look so rosy and won derful when we are in love. It looks to us as if everything is going to be 0. K. forever, but it is always best to figure that it isn't going to be, for we must re member that every couple that ever made vows jto each other and broke them were just ai» seri ous as we are at the time. It is safe to make sure that you really are in love. It is quite easy to be mistaken and forever is a long time! It’s so easy to believe that everything is beautiful and serene in such surroundings. In the moonlight and the star-.- light, or in the soft light of a case with mellow music in the offing it is hard to think of rent coming THE WASHINGTON TIMES Th* National Daily TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1925 due, and jobs being lost and stuffy cheap apartments. Walking in a pretty park talk ing of a happy future is not test enough for one’s heart hero. Try taking a stroll through some more unpleasant surround ings, and think seriously if you could be happier in the poorest section of the city, with little or nothing, AND HlM—than any where else with everything— WITHOUT HIM! Two who really lov*e each other can be happy on very little. TRAIN STOPPED TO FEED BABY DES MOINES, la., July 21.—The travelers’ aid representative at the Rock Island station here was a tit flustered, but equal' to the emer gency, when she was handed the following message by a railroad operator: “Get nipple and bottle, can of Nestle’s food. Meet No. 7.” Less than half an hour later No. 7 pulled in, and a grinning con ductor took the nipple, bottle and Nestle’s food and placed them in the hands of a worried young mother, who had forgotten to bring enough food for-her six-months-ojd baby.

ILL SUS SEWIIEO IM FIIMCt Reconstruction of Devastated Areas Complete—A Tre mendous Task Gradually the scars of the great war are disappearing from the old western front in the north of France. “Reconstruction in th® devas tated regions is now beginning to draw to a close, and another year should see a complete fulfillment of the extensive program inaugu rated by the French government shortly after the armistice," Amer ican Commercial Attache C. L. Jones, of Paris, informed Secretary of Commetce Hoover. "Os the 7,250,000 acres of land rendered unsuitable for use at the time of the armistice 95 per cent had been restored by the spring of this year. "Practically all of the land cov ered with barbed wire entangle ment has been cleared and 95 per cent of the earth that had been thrown up in making trenches has now been used for filling in. “Os the nearly 5,000,000 acres of farm land unsuitable for agricul ture at the time of the armistice, 4,525,000 acres had been leveled off.” Most Buildings Replaced. At the time of the armistice the number of destroyed buildings reached 893,792. By the beginning of this year 508,319 of these had been rebuilt, according to the infor mation. A considerable number of the remaining damaged structures will be re-erected, however, as their owners have accepted war damages with no Intention to rebuild. More than 22,9e0 factories were destroyed by the war in northern France. Over 21,000 of the manu facturing plants have jieen rebuilt or repaired. About one-half of the 6,081 schools and 3,311 churches destroyed by the Germans have been replaced. Approximately 75,000,000,000 francs have been paid out by the French government in restoration of the devastated regions. It is estimated that about 20,000,000 francs addi tional will be required to com pletely rehabilitate the old war grounds. More Modern Homes. Considering the frightful havoc that was wrought by shell fire, lay ing of trenches and other operations of both allied and enemy armies from the Channel ports, down through Belgium to Chateau Thierry, along the Marne, Verdun, St. Mihiel tnd the less active sectors to the east, France's feat in rehabilitating the front is remarkable. Thousands of men were employed in accomplishing the restoration. A tremendous volume of raw materials and manufactured products were re quired for the project. Officials said that the general class of homes and business structures throughout northern France has been improved by the restoration, since thousands of the destroyed structures were of ancient type and unfitted for mod ern use.

6 UN FICES HOT FIGHT OINIW Powerful Cliques Arrayed Against Each Other on Admiralty Demands By DAVID M. CHURCH, International New* Service. LONDON, July 21.—Premier Baldwin was working energetically today to stave off a cabinet crisis which loomed omiqpusly as a re sult of the opposition of Winston Churchill, chancellor of the ex chequer, to the naval building program advocated by W. C. Bridgeman, first lord of the ad miralty. Compromise Sought. Baldwin has been striving, with out success, to reconcile the "big” and 'little’* navy men in his offi cial family. The cabinet having failed to reach an accord yesterday, today was being given over to pri vate and Informal discusions in"the hope that the elusive compromise might be found by the time the cabinet again assembles in Downing street tomorrow. The controversy having got into the realm of politics, there is much more at stake now than the mere question of the number of cruisers to be laid down this year and the continuing program. Political issues of the utmost gravity have entered the quarrel, and with tactful handling might es idly precipitate a ministerial crisis. Powerful Clioucs Opposed. Pitted against etch other are the powerful cliques headed by Church ill and Lord Birkenhead and the "Big” navy group The latter are rallying around Bridgeman, first Lord of the Admit alty, who, with Earl Petty, first Sea Lord, and the entire Admiralty E«-ard threaten to resign if their recommendations are discarded. The Admiralty group accepted a new compromise today as a basis of settlement. They expressed themselves as satisfied with a build ing program calling for laying down of three cruisers this year, but in sisted that four must be the mini mum next year. Churchill Group Not Pleased. Churchill and his group still are dissatisfied They refuse to go so far. And Churchill holds the whip hand as Chancellor of the Ex chequer and thus the watchdog of the treasury. Since it is all a mat ter of taxation, Churchill has a strong card. But there is a strong group who insist upon proper safe guards for national defense. And these two opposing groups are as wide apart aj the poles from the compromise which Premier Bald win seeks.

The semi-official letter dispatched to Abd-el-Krim, the Riff leader, ;n viting him to state peace terms with France and Spain, is still un answered. If the Riff leader continues to maintain silence the only alterna tive must be the heavy offensive against the Riffs, for which Mar shal Petain, already in Morocco, now Is perfecting plans.

Coolidge Rides Many Hobbies, High Horse Being Economy By WM. K. HUTCHINSON. Thia is the first of a series of sketches which teveal the national political figure as a "brother under the skin" to the man behind the plow, the white collar worker, or the day laborer. Others will follow. President Calvin Coolidge might be classed as a leader of the “hobby legion” in the official life of the nation’s capital. Coming out of New England with simple tastes and his character moulded by the rugged life of his childhood days in Vermont, he has developed as many hobbies here as any other man in Washington. His hobbies are simple—ordinary even but over them is laid a mantle of sincerity which adds a touch of the dramatic. The President loves economy. It' is his brain-child and greatest hobby. He practices it as ardently in his private life as in his public office. He loves politics, too, and the lure of public service might be given second place In a list of his fancies. His favorite “sport” is walking, and he gets most enjoyment out of strolling unconcernedly about the streets of Washington. On these jaunts .he will rub elbows with crowds of Government workers, women shoppers and bevies of high school girls, apparently oblivious of their fascinated Interest. He simply acts “at home”-among them. But the theory of practical PERPETUAL.

Through a newspaper I f learned of Lydia p Pinkham’s Veg etable Compoundand thinkingit would help me I tried it. It quieted my nerves, I was less annoyea and more lively.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound is a dependable medicine for all these troubles. For sale by drug gists everywhere. economy is a pet with the Presi dent. He enforces it in the man agement of the White House kitchen as rigidly as in a Govern ment department. The trend of the Presidential mind along this line may best be illustrated by an anecdote of his early married life m Northampton, Mass. It is revealed by Mrs. Coolidge. It seems that Mrs. Coolidge— she who has captured Washington society as few other mistresses of the White House has done in de cades —was "taken in” by a smooth tongued book agent, who sold her a volume of home remedies which she thought might be helpful in rearing the Coolidge sons. The Coolidge homie was being run on a strict budget, and the book was relatively expensive. No Panacea, Says Cal. As the story goes, Mrs. Coolidge postponed telling Calvin about it. but placed the book in a conspicu ous place. Several days passed, and the President-to-be apparently never noticed .it. Then one day Mrs. Coolidge opened the book to look some homely remedy and found inscribed on the fly-leaf: “I see in here cures for almost every ailment, but I find no cure for suckers. “(Signed) C. C.” That love for economy is rigidly enforced in the White House today. A budget is maintained at all times and even John ’Coolidge must ac count for every expenditure at his preparatory school. Mrs. Coolidge recently told friends that the Presi dent made John keep a personal budget, which must be submitted “to home” each month, and that every extravagance was severely reprimanded. And the Coolidge salary is only $7.5,000 a year. The President is thoroughly hu man. He loves pets. In the White House grounds are Rob Roy, a white collie, and Tige, a nondescrip cat. For Economy of Time. On numerous occasions the Presi dent has sat petting these animals while engaged in important con ferences at the White House. As for the mechanical horse, which the President rides in bis bedchamber, he uses that— merely for exercise. Ho actually likes horseback riding, but “there s too much lost motion in it”—this he once confided to a friend. The “lost motion,” he explained, came not upon the horse’s back, but in donning a riding costume, walking to the stables, taking a ride and then returning to the White House to change back to business clothes before “going to work.” Therefore his exercise comes from short walks through the streets of the capital and by riding "Old Ironsides.” I Since becoming President, Mr. Coolidge has developed a fondness i for baseball. It is a hobby now, jfor he was one of the most enthu siastic rooters when Washington won 4he world series last fall. ’This year he tossed out the first ‘ball at the opening game and par ticipated in the exercises attending the raising of the “world cham pions” flag. More recently still he has shown a real liking for the theater, and he told friends he “keenly enjoyed” •the current version of the "Follies.” BIGTEETIEftD TO ROBBER'S CAPTURE Sailor Tells Police He Thought Norfolk Stores Would Be “Easy” By International News Service. NORFOLK, Va., July 21. —Thomas Hart, twenty, of Wilmington, N. C., a rookie coast guard sailor, thought Norfolk stores were "easy picking." according to his alleged confession to police. He "stuck up” the Thom Mean shoe store in the heart of the retail shopping district, he told police, but his enormous feet proved his undoing. A No. 10 shoe on a man five feet five inches tall was "easy picking” for a detective who over hauled the sailor an hour after the robbery as he sped to a beach to enjoy a swim before proceeding to Charlotte, N. C., for a brief visit. "I could remember those big feet anywhere,” the manager of the store told police as he identified the prisoner.

Consequently, it is these you choose from in our mid-summer sale. These coats are made in slack season when producers are anxious to keep their or ganization intact---when fur workers are content with lower wages. This means more time and better workmanship. g Prices are lower now because furriers are willing to take less for their coats in order to stim ulate business in the dull sea son. We, too, are willing to do the same thing for the same reason. You, therefore, receive the benefit of both the manu facturer’s and our reductions, and save from 25% to 40% of the coming Winter prices.

I’ll have to write Tom Blanton about Tt.” A well-known naturalist said recently that several species of mammals would now be extinct if man had not come to their rescue.

BUILDERS TO AID DI ON BIDS I Ball Calls in Contractors for Suggestions on School Projects Formation of a pdhey will permit the District gijJPi ment to obtain bids for school buildings within the limit of ap propriations without sacrificing necessary details in construction will be discussed at a conference of contractors with Engineer Commissioner J. Franklin Bell this afternoon at the District Building. AU Bldg Too High. Commissioner Bell is anxious to receive suggesgons from the con tractors who usually bid on Dis trict contracts. Several of the low est blds received recently have been considerably above the amount of money available for the projects, making it necessary for the city heads to frame a building policy which will not delay the construc tion projects authorized by Con gress. “I have been told that other cities are able to get blds which are lower than the ones we get in Washington," Commisslonerr Bell said today. “I want to find out how much truth there is to these reports. If it is because the con ditions on which the bids are sub mitted are different, then I would like to work out a plan whereby we can make the conditions for bids more liberal, if thereby we can obtain lower bids.” To Give Them More Time Commissioner Bell pointed out that more satisfactory bids may be obtained by giving the contractors more time in which to submit their specifications. The bids are gow advertised ten months in advance. Colonel Bell has in mind a modifi cation of the time limit so as to give the contractors a year in which to, make their bids. He believes that by giving them some assurance of work for a long time ahead, the building cost may be reduced sufficiently to make a lower figure possible. FIBSTDEATTAG CASE TRIED HERE Defendants Are Freed Under Personal Bonds After Conviction Charles Edwin Welch of 42 Co lumbia avenue. Takoma Park, was freed on his personal bonds today after being convicted of releasing an automobile without turning in the tags. This case, the first of its kind, is part of a campaign of the Traffic Bureau to stop automobile drivers from using dead tags. Henry Elmer Garner was stopped several days ago by Traffic In spector Brown while he was driving the car formerly owned by Welch. He was unable to furnish a registra tlon card and was cited to appear at the Traffic Bureau with the card. He did not show up, however, and was brought to court today along with Welch, charged with operatlm? a car on dead tags. Tn the meantime he had obtained new tags for the car and so the judge took his personal bonds.

DONALD LOWRIE’S STORY New and Amazing Serial Describes One Man’s Long But Losing Battle for Freedom I SPOKE that night on sheer nervous force. I had eaten nothing since morning and I was angry clear through. At the con clusion of my talk I felt weak physically. I was told afterwards that the lecture was very intense and one of the most convincing I had ever delivered. Invitation for Refreshments. While talking I was surprised to see George in the audience at the back part of the room. When I finished he was one of the first to come up to -the rostrum tb greet me. "Come on back to Los Angeles With me,” he invited. “I’m stop ping at the Lankershim. You look tired and worn out. We’ll hurry back and get some refresh ments.” Barry had joined us while George wai speaking and before I could accept the invitation he made some remark to the effect that he, had first claim on me. George regarded me keenly, evi dently sensing that there was something wrong. “Sorry, Mr. Barry,” I laughed, “but I haven’t seen George for some time. I’m going over to Los Angeles with him. See you tomorrow.” Barry said nothing, but when George and I left the hall he came along with us. The lady under whose auspices the lec ture had been arranged was alqp with us and voiced her disap pointment again that I was un able to accept her invitation to remain over night at her resi dence. She had extended the in vitation to me when she handed me a check before the lecture, but I had politely declined. I knew that before the lecture was I would want a drink badly and I confidently expected that Barry would drop me anil let-me go my way. We’ll Meet Again. This lady held ue in conversa tion on the sidewalk for several minutes before entering her car and driving off. Then I turned to Barry, extended my hand and ■aid, “Well, good night, Mr. Barry. Cancel my room at she Mt. Wash ington. If I don’t see you sooner, we’ll meet again in San Fran cisco.” “No, Lowrle, I’m going to re main with you," he announced. "I promised '“You are going to do nothing of the sort!” I Interrupted angrily. “I’ve put up with enough from you already. Good night!” Barry Ignored my preferred hand. I turned and walked off, George accompanying me and calling, “Good night, John.” Barry followed, expostulating. We all “stood still again and it developed into an argument. What followed is hard -to de scribe. Several times I- was -on the verge of striking Barry. How I refrained from doing so I don’t know. We strode* up and down the main street of Pasadent talk ing loduly and gesticulating. It was close to midnight. Barry cajoled, begged, argued, used all the eloquence at his command, trying to persuade me to return to the Mt. “Washington with him. Finally I stopped short and con fronted him with clenched fists. “You’re going to stand right j A„ An, f I IMiiiiiilll i You 1 j the New g Radiola Super-Heterodyne J I PORTABLE For Indoors and Outdoors A For outdoors —a neat, compact walnut-finished case—a o 5 real Radiola Super-Heterodyne—with a loop in the cover g 5 and a loud speaker built in.

Take your choice— a quiet separation or a street brawl with arres’s. 1 mean what I say. Stay right where you are —or fight.” Apd I walked rapidly away from him. My words and anger must have convinced Barry. I looked back as I. turned the cor ner half a block away. He was there where I had left him, lopking after me, Soon as I turned that corner I ran. I feared that he might change his mind and follow me anyway and that would have compelled me to strike him. An hour later I was at the Lan kershim. I retired, drunk, along toward daybreak. I do not intend to say any more about him in my story I might as well add a para graph here about George. Al though somethin? in his tem perament was dangerous to me. I must admit in .justice to him that he has “made good” since leaving prison. Apparently he has helped others as profoundly as he hurt me through my own weaknesses. He left prison be fore I did, and has not only stayed out or prison—as I have not been able—but has done good work for a prison reform or ganization and has recently writ ten a very instructive book. "The Twenty-fifth Man,” about prison conditions. AU this and the many other efforts on the part of my friends to control me passed through my mind as I sat there on the cot in that cell at the emergency hos pital, waiting for someone to coma and let me out. The recollections. Instead of making me grateful, made me resentful and savgge. I felt that it had all been an Unwarranted interference with my personal, liberty and that it was time for me to make a final declaration of independence. CHAPTER XXXIII. It-was John Boran, one of the reporters no the paper, who came into the Emergency Hospital to get me—“ Johnnie,” as we called him at the office. I did not know him as well as I knew some of the other boys, and wondered why Older had sent him in preference to “Scoop” Gleeson or George West or Crowley or "Ely, all of whom I knew would not balk against my having a drink or two during the day. Johnnie was small In stature, quiet and unobtrusive. To my immense relief, he proved to be all right. We had not sooner ar rived at Market street, just a half block from the Emergency, than I Suggested the need of a drink to steady my nerves, and he ac quiesced readily. “The only thing, old man,” he admonished, half apologetically, “is not to take too many. I’m not stuck on this guardian job at all, but I couldn’t very weh refuse.” (To Be Continued Tomorrow.) THE WASHINGTON TIMES The National Daily TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1925 FOXY GRANDPA STORY IDO believe I haven’t told you anything lately about Tango, tlje pet elephant which we had in India, have I? I think you liked Tango. I know I did. He was such a smart elephant. Os course, all elephants are clever and have wonderful mem ories, but Tango was the very smartest elephant I ever knew. Now, the story I am going to tell you will make you agree with me that It isn’t only the ones who walk on two legs that have the brains and use them. Bobby was sick—not very sick, but just sick like boys and girls get sometimes when a good dose of castor oil. Is all that they need. So I put the little fellow to bed and we decided It was a bil ious attack and that calomel was the thing this time instead of cas tor oil, which pleased Bobby very, very much. He was to take a pill every half hour until he had taken ten of them, and he didn’t think It was so bad taking those. little pellets. It was hot In India where we lived and Bobby’s bed was out on the veranda, it was nice and cool. And besides, he could talk to Tango, our elephant, who was allowed to roam about the yard loose. Because, you see. Tango loved us so much that he never would have tried to ryn away for all the baled hay in the world. So there was Bobby sick on the" porch, and there was Tango keep ing him company. As it happened I was obliged to go into the village that day. Bobby had taken his nine pills and there was only one little one left. As I stood by my bicycle—l was gbing to ride into the village on it—l said to Bobby: “Now, Bobby, don’t forget there Is another pill for you to take. Take it at half-past three, and above all things, don’t get out of bed until I come back. I won’t be gone long.” I rode out the gate on my wheel, and as .1 passed Tango I said, laughing: "Now take care of that boy} Tango.” He wagged his ears and winked at me with those funny little eyes of his, I often wonder how elephants see as well as they do with their small eyes, but it is a known fact that their eyesight Is splendid. I rode to the village and attend ed to my business and started home. When I rode into the gate there was Tango taking his afternoon tea of half a bale of hay. I called: “Did you take care of Bobby, Tango?” Again he wagged his ears at me and blinked. “Good boy,” said I, as he hand ed me his trunk to shake. Bobby had fallen asleep while I was gone. So I sat down on the porch near him and waited for him to wake up. Soon the boy stirred. “How do you feel, Bobby?” "Oh, much better, thank you, Foxy Grandpa. I’ll be all right In the morning.” "Did you take your medicine, Bobby?” I asked. “Yes, Foxy Grandpa,” said Bobby. “Tango gave it to me.” "What do you mean, Bobby?” “I dropped the pill on the floor, Foxy Grandpa, and I couldn’t get up to get it because you had told me not to get out of bed. But Tango picked it up for me.” “Tango picked it up for you— an elephant picked up that tiny pill with his trunk?” “Yes, sir," said Bobby, “and then he put It In my mouth and then he blew down my throat to make sure it went down!” WHEN DID IT HAPPEN?

Whether the crow flies or'not, it’s still a long hop from the as saults and batteries of “Twin Beds” to the ornamental niceties of Lonsdale’s, drawing room masterpiece, “Aren’t We All?” but the distance only serves to increase our enjoyment at an enchanting effort. What might have held a mid-stream menace for many a better established company is just another well-stocked hamper of meat and groceries to that Paavo Nurmi of all stock troupes, the National Players. At bridging the chasm, spanning the stream QV skinning the thespic cat, this crowd puts the rest of them in thV* marble-shooting class. One of the fascinations of a versatile stock company is in the kaleidoscopic possibilities of its members. Benefits accrue from the personal equation between actor and audience that are never writ ten in the book nor inscribed in the experienc of traveling troupes. The pious hyprocrite designated as the vicar of Shropshire-on- Worcester near Hants, is the same fine, pretty fellow who was last week variously discovered under a strange lady’s bed, in a hamper of soiled clothes and on the fire escape in pajamas. Here’s also Lady Frinton ordering butlers around whereas only a fortnight ago she ate in the pantry. And so on. A goregous democracy it is that lives behind the footlights. Estates rise and fall, aprons are traded for frocks, morals change their tints like an opal in the sun, and seven days is a cycle for an Empire. The illusion is helped by this, rather than retarded and that seems to me to be the most rigid of tests for competency.

TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1925 NOU), JULIA,CXM i IS 'lit'® MACKMEN STAUNCH IS EVER Harris Is Confident Cham pions Will Triumph in Showdown Series By LOUIS A. DOUGHER. NEW YORK, July 21.—More and more apparent is it that Con nie Mack’s contenders will carry the pennant fight right into the remaining six games scheduled with the world champion Washing ton Griffmen. Succumbing to the brutal as saults of the champions in fourj of their five tussels in June, the Mackmen staggered badly. They came here and fell before the bruised and broken Yankees. They fought back hard before the say age attacks of the Indians in Cleveland. Then, as by a miracle, suddenly those contenders found themselves. They slambanged the Tigers, cleaned up the White Sox in four games and fought tooth and nail against George Sisler’s Browns. Today the Mackmen who seemed about to craek under the strain of the pennant hunt, are as formidable as ever and if the world champions are to win their second successive banner, they may have to do so at the expense of the Mackmen them selves. The race in the American League, therefore, may continue a see-saw affair for six weeks yet. Not until Labor Day, September 7, will the champions face their strongest rivals for the honors. Then they will have four games in three days in Philadelphia. The asphalt in field and the bandbox dimensions of Shibe Park should give the Mack men an edge in that series. Two more games with the Phil adelphians remain to be played in in Washington, one on Septem ber 13 and the other on the final day of the campaign, Sunday, Oc tober 4. It is possible, therefore, for the pennant to be determined on that last day of the season. The Mackmen won most of their victories in the West by sheer hit ting strength. In Detroit and Cleve land, Washington players were re galed with tales of the terrif.c slugging of the Mackmen. Fans and home players pointed out dis tant places where rude slams sailed over ihe walls for home runs. “That’s all very well,” said Bucky Harris, “but they were not facing the kind of pitching we'll givb them. That must be taken into con sideration. We have something on them, and they know it. If it comes down to a fight just between Washington and the A.*s I’ll stake my l.fe on our end of the argu ment.” Today the world champions, escaping with their lives from their second tour of the West, are playing an exhibition game in Utica. The Jersey City Interna tional are their opponents, chosen by Judge Landis to assist an American Legion post in that city. The world champions are due here just before midnight and to morrow will do netting in prepara tion for their coming trio of games with the low spirited Yankees. The first game is booked for Thursday. Friday is a day of .uieness and then come games on Saturday and Sun day. with the champions making a wild rush to reach the Capital by midnight Sunday night. The full strength of the Griffs should be on the field during this final series of the season in the Metropolis. Walter Johnson very likely will appear on the hill for the first time since June 30. when he held the Mackmen to two scratch hits. Roger Pecklnpaugh’s sore thumb Is so much better that he probably will start Thursday’s contest at short. Everett Scott has improved con siderably, probably because of his being used regularly, but Peck’s return to the Infield is desired by Manager Harris. Peck fits In bet ter with the machine, while his hitting is timely, though not heavy. With Johnson once more taking his turn on the rubber, Bucky Har ris will have his first string pitch ers in action. The quartet did not go to Utica but came right on to New York from Cleveland. Zachary should face the Yankees Thursday, with Ruether hurling Saturday and Johnson next Sunday. Six games will be played next week in the Capital. The White Sox, opening with a double header, will start a four-day visit on Tues day. The Detroit Jungaleers will arrive on Saturday for four more games. As both Chicago and De troit have battled the Griffs hard all season, these games should be well worth seeing. i Good for Hack Hack Miller, of the Oakland Club, In the Pacific Coast League. hasn’t made an error yet with the Oaks, and he has batted safely In twenty six consecutive games.

MACCABEES have swarmed into Washington and di verted some of our at tention from Jayton and Dar row. They Haven’t distracted anybody off Bryan, for every ohe stopped paying attention to him years ago. For the next three days the visiting firemen will endeavor to learn our traf fic regulations. And then, about the time they J are able to walk across the street alone, a/T will decide our J.A sidewalk sys tern is some kind of new de- nl gree. A I Droves of S/ I these invading J Zouaves have A/ been seething up and down i our thoroughfares gobbling up all the scenery and threatening to leave none for the next con vention. People* have been coming here for years to inhale the public buildings and grounds and still there seems to be plenty left for the next trainload of sight absorbers. There is lots to be seen in j Washington in the way of muni- j cipal pride. You can’t sit down on a park bench without won dering if the city hasn’t been cleaning up and painting up. First thing the Maccabees did was to promise Washington it would be a dry old time. That stood to reason unless they brought it along with ’em. Not one point of public in terest is being overlooked by the visitors who haven’t missed any thing from the city incinerator to the district pound. Great stress has been laid on our resilient sidewalks which are built to move back the i buildings in case distinguished i guests come to town. Parks and playgrounds dot the city like red and black pins on a staff officer’s map. You can sleep in any of these with out fear of being called an evo- i lutionist. j If the Maccabees miss any of these civic assets, it’ll be be cause they aren’t interested in outdoor America. We’ve got plenty of it here.

Waeh|nT FORE! —AND AFTER —By ROSS CONKLIN— Only a bare two weeks remain before the six Washington munici pal champions start their trials in the national municipal links tournament over the links of the Salisbury Country Club, at Garden City, Long Island. Just two weeks from today the competition for the Harding cup will be played. Thia Harding cup play is more or less the bqnk. The winners, four, play for the trophy, get the cup’s custody for a year, until the cup wears out. Just now it is hale and hearty and there seems no chance of its being taken out of circulation for two or three cen turies. Four players compete for it, and the four scores they make in the qualifying rounds are the basis for determining the custodianship for the year. Washington’s play ers will probably get together and elect a captain, and that cap tain will select the four men to play for the cup. Entries have to be made in the event before August 1. Entries for the tournament closed Monday, and the writer' has in his hands the receipts for the entries of John Shorey anti William Cox, Times Municipal Links champions. This paper will send them to Gar den City with all expenses paid, and the |5 entrance fees were also paid. The first qualifying round will be played Tuesday, August 4, and the second eighteen holes will have to be played the next day. On and after that date all those who were also rang can jump aboard a rat tler and come home, saving the well-known dollars. Or, if uncles and aunts abound in New Tork, temporary or permanent stays can be made at their homes. Heartaches and groans for missed putts, topped drives, foozled ap proaches, and unplayable balls will cease then and there, for with only thirty-two to qualify for the match play, and with around SOO entered, there is certain to be some spirited playing. Thursday, August 6. the first two rounds of match play will be held. Eighteen holes, more or less, are the' limit. Friday two more rounds will be played with the semi-finals starting on the hour of 2 o’clock fish day. Saturday morning at 9:30 o’clock the finals will begin, with the two remaining contestants scheduled to play a measley thirty-six holes. To go through three rounds of thirty six holes is a hardship on anyone, but it must be done. Players have obtained a $3 a day rate at the Pennsylvania Hotel so: two people. The hotel at Garden City has made the same arrange ment.

TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1925 SUNKEN SEAM FURTHER HANDICAPS PITCHER IN CURVING SPHERE The athletes continue to knock the ball out of the lots and the •xperts, at least some of them, continue to howl about the pills having been given added life so that hitting would predominate and the cus tomers attracted to the turnstiles. Meanwhile the big men in baseball, the presidents of the two majors •nd the club owners, all of whom should know whether or not the construction of the ball was intentionally changed, either remain silent on the point or state positively that if an alteration was made m Ithe ball it wasn’t done at the suggestion of the leagues. V All of which may be true" enough, but the ball could be con s verted into the "Jack rabbit” variety without the knowledge of the magnates, because the ball manufacturers have to meet speci fications only as to weight and size and neither of these has anything to do with the distance the pill will travel when hit. The ball used In the major leagues is a combination of cork, rubber, yam and leather. The cork, about the size of a marble, is the center, and it is an established fact that cork gives greater life to the ball than a similar amount of rubber. Around the cork is an un broken layer of rubber of approxi mately one-quarter inch in thick ness. Next is the yarn and then the hoss hide cover. President John Heydler, of the National League, recently visited the baseball factory at Philadelphia and afterward said that so far as he could determine there was no reason for the baseballs to be any livelier than they had been. Heyd ler, 'however, explained how the had developed im r proved methods for-burning out the I pills, and it is barely possible that the makers have unknowingly added distance to their product at no advance in price. Under the present method of pre paring the covers it is possible to produce them so that the thick ness of the leather doesn’t vary. If the leather Is thinner than in the past it naturally would afford less protection against a blow from a swinging bat. The manufacturers also informed Heydler that mechanical devices had resulted in stitching that leaves the •earn virtually at a level with the rest of the cover. Comparison of balls of recent manufacture with last year’s products didn’t reveal much dif ference, but it could be slight enough to escape the eye and yet be enough to affect some of rhe pitchers. With most hurlers the seam al ways has been utilized as a means of getting a better grip on the ball. With the ends of the.fingers di rectly over a part of the seam it ris far easier to get a spin on the pellet as it leaves the hand and it is the spin—forwards, backwards or sideways—that causes the object to curve, hop or dip. If the seams have been depressed, as the makers contend, it is possible, then, the pitchers aren't getting the stuff on the ball as they did before, and with less deception the batters are swinging freer and connecting oftener.

His achieve ment of striking out seventeen batsmen in a nine-inning game under the four-strike rule is the greatest in that line. This would mean that he sent over sixty eight strikes more than were consumed by Sweeney, Daly and Willie Mitchel when they regis tered their marks of nineteen and twenty in nine-inning games. Ramsey’s lifetime record in major leagues stands 1,571 for the 231 games he hurled. This would be ap average of 6.57 a game, the best record in the history of the game. “Dazzy” Vance, with 6.52, stands next. Waddell averaged 6.32 for his career in the big leagues. Walter Johnson averaged 5.34 per game. These are the best marks on record.

Collins is running the White Sox more intelligently than any pilot since Kid Gleason resigned the com mand. Eddie has initiative, force and tact besides bedrock baseball i knowledge sfnd one must have these qualities to prosper as a big league manager. Everybody ever appointed to the post of baseball manager knows the game, but the obstacles are else where. He must have the person ality to gain the respect and con fidence of his players. He must be quick-witted and able to know what is going on the opposing team and to counter successfully. Eddie has these qualities, and he is glnving the "White Sox a good i ride and making big money for DEPRESSED STITCHING IN HORSEHIDE ADDS TO PITCHERS’ TROUBLE WASHINGTON TIMES SPORTS Jack Flynn Wizard of Baseball Pitchers Only One Year Jack Flynn was an entirely unknown hurler prior to 1886. In that season he appeared in the uniform of the Chicago Na tionals when Pop Anson was absolute in baseball. Flynn stepped right into the big game and performed in a manner which led fans and management to believe that another Clarkson or McCormack had been unearthed. A percentage of .833 in games won placed the historic name of Flynn at the head of all hurlers in the senior circuit. In the thirty complete games he hurled an average of 1.05 earned' runs were made off his delivery. After that season Flynn was lost to baseball. The name of Flynn never appeared in the box score of another big league game; in fact, his name was never found in the box score of any club or league playing under the national agreement, and death, at that time, had not taken him. iNDHROIS 15 NEW STAR WITH BAT Cubs’ Rookie Hits Nine Home Runs in Seventeen Games In his first seventeen gardes in the National League Jonathan "Mandy Brooks, of the Cubs, poled as many official home runs as Ty Cobb when he was the king of swat back in 1909. He hit nine for the circuit and plucked them in pairs in two afternoons. Immediately the baseball fan who feasts on new idols wanted to know something about this new sensa tion. Brooks? He had not occu pied the headlines of the sport pages. Then who was he and how should he come in and disturb the home run market? Jonathan "Mandy” Brooks carries his fame without the blink of an eye-lash. He does not say he is go ing to erase Babe Ruth’s name from the home-run record book. He is just a youngster trying to make his living as a ball player and hopes he will succeed. As for crowding T?abe or anybody else out of home-run honors. Brooks is not making such a forecast. He’d like to, of course, but saying it and doing it is another thing. In 1924, Brooks with Columbus, played in 145 games and had but seven home-runs. The year before in 145 games he had exactly two. Thus in seventeen games in the major league he tied his home-run record of 290 games in the .minors, Charles Comiskey, his owner, for big crowds come out every day at the Sox park. Eddie said to this writer: "I am happy in this new post. It hasn’t affected my playing, and Comiskey is making everything pleasant for me.” “I enjoy managing a ball team and want to try out some of my ideas when the proper time comes. I intend to make managing my life work although I will continue to play at second base as long as I can move and hit the ball.” MAN 0’ WAR’S COLT SIRE’S WORTHY SUCCESSOR That Man o’War should given the turf in his first year at the stud what seems to be a worthy successor in American Flag is addi tional proof of the superiority of the great son of Fair Play and Mahubah, whose claims to greatness as a race horse have been grudgingly acknowledged in some quarters. While it is too early to become hysterical in the praise of Ameri can Flag, the most cold-blooded of the critics must give the chestnut colt his just award as a race horse to date this season. When Man o’War was racing the turf had some shifty three-year olds. He vanquished them all, no matter what the weights were, and rounded up his career by meating one of the best four-year-olds in Sir Barton. The argument advanced in connection with the three year-olds beaten by the Riddle champion was that they were devoid of class. In the ease of the four-year-old, the claim was made that Sir Barton was not at his best at Kenilworth Park. In the case of American Flag the contention is much the same, and it must be admitted that there is truth in the claim thaj. the three year-olds of 1925 as a whole are sadly lacking in class. Ouslde of Silver Fox, whose limit at present seems to be around a mile and a furlong, those in the East are far below the average. Broadway Jones on his recent races seems to be the best of those, in the West. This is unfortunate for the turf, as it deprives some of the classics of the season of that combative ness, which is the backbone of racing. At the same time the class of the few’ good individuals in different parts of the country are enshrouded in doubt. For those students of the turf who scrutinize the individual race horse and scan the physical make up critically, a comparison between American Flag and his sire Is in teresting. American Flag has little of the masculinity that made his sire such a forceful figure at the same age. He has less fire, too, end is modeled more closely after the grayhound type than his illus trious parent. He is of lighter mould all over with the quarters of a real stayer, and a neck as un furnished as that of a gelding. He most nearly resembles his sire as he charges down the stretch at the finish of a race. Then there is the same determination to win, as was a characteristic of Man o’War. But horses of quality come in all shapes. It would be difficult to find two of the same age more unlike than American Flag and Silver Fox. The latter is now generally recog nized as American Flag’s strongest rival, and there are some who maintain that the gray colt Is the superior of the chestnut at sprint ing distances. Silver Fox is a big horse, but one of the most truly formed thoroughbreds this country has seen in some years. He has substance and a balance that com pels the attention of every man with an eye for the beautiful in a thoroughbred. He and American Flag have saved the day in the East in the three-year-old division.
