party was Immediately organized as
soon as his absence was dis
covered. A number went to the hills
surrounding but a thorough search

creek bottom has been dragged from the
camp to its mouth and into the river.
This morning dynamite was used to blow
out the small holes in the creek but all
was in vain. Some have the opinion
that the child was picked up and hidden

Larned. OF New Jersey. and to his title as
champion of England added that of cham
pion of the United States. The score was
60, 6-3, 10-S in Dohertys favor, and al
though in the last set the American player
made heroic stand, Larned was worn
out by the British expert and failed to hold
him i'm the eighteenth game.
BY defeating Larned to-day Doherty COM
pleted the clean sweep which he and his
brother have made in this country this sea-
son. Between them they hold both the
singles and the doubles championships of
the United States and England, as we'll as
having won the Davis International trophy,
without the assistance of any other player.
The two brothers hold unique position in
the history of the game, a position that
no others have ever approached.
Doherty won in straight sets, which is
a great deal of surprise, though he had
been thought to be dangerous opponent
for Larned. because of his two previous
victories over the American champion. His
style to-day had all the qualities that have
characterized him before. the one most
prominent being steadiness. He was out

work. reaching apparently impossible balls

viii report for these positions early i'm the

Mckinney and David Allerdice. The last
named Will be remembered as the new ath-

Among the promising men who will try

The ID rule, which has struck terror to
many an athletes heart. will not affect any
of the men named, at the Shortridge
cleared at the beginning of the semester
no matter how bad ii may have been. This
provides, however. that the student must
stand well in the number of subjects he is
carrying.
The question of a coach for the Shortridge
High School team will be an easy one to
solve this season, as Captain Clark received
a letter a few days ago from Lee Jutton,
who so successfully led the blue and white
squad to victory last year, that he would
again take charge. In case he cannot
coach the boys Lundgren, pitcher on the
Chicago National League baseball team,
will in all probability assume control. Lund-
gren was a member of the Illinois Univer-
sity football team at the time Jutton played,
and the two played the positions of right
and left half back respectively one season.
Manager Claude Tuck will also assist in
training as he did last year. Manager Tuck
was a great help TO the team in its out
of town games doing much TO advise the
captain at critical points.
