One of the most profitable sessions
OF the City B. Y. P. U. ever held in
this city was that of Friday night. The
topic for discussion was "Destitution
of Workers Among Baptists."
DR.. w. B. Crumpton ably discussed
Need of Baptist preachers and what
we are doing to supply it," The
speaker stated that there are a great
many unemployed preachers, and gave
as the reason the fact that a great
many of them are unframed for the
most efficient work. The restitution
in many cases, said the speaker, is
caused by the fact that a great many
churches are employing a pastor for
half or all his time. leaving from one

PARENTS OF SCHOOL BOYS
DEMAND. INVESTIGATION.
Say Students Who Were Barred From
Athletics For Taking Souvenirs on
Seattle Trip Were UniustIy Treated
Appeal May be Taken

AS a result of the action of PRINCIPAL
Wesoott of the North Division high
school forbidding the members Of the
schools football team to take part in
any other branch of athletics it is the
intention OF the parents of some of the
players to visit the principals office
today and make formal demand that
the whole Seattle matter be investigat-
ed and the real facts ascertafned.
The action of Principal Wescott was
the outcome of the charge that the
football team had broken into the lock-
ers in the gymnasium Of the University
of Washington and carried away the
coptents in their suit cases. When the
parents of the boys who are members
Of the team heard of the princina1's
action several of them declared +ha
head of the North Division high school
had exceeded his authority and had
gone too far with the matter. Others
stated he had made no Investigation
whatever, and had acted solely on
press reports.
If Professor Wescott refuses 10 in
vestigate the affair. it will be taken to
the school management committee
which endorsed his action.
One Of the parents was highlv in
dignant and said last night that so
long as Professor Wescott had refused
to sanction the trip Of the football
team to Seattle. he had gone too far in
taking a hand in the matter at the
present time.

Sport Is Clean Cut Although
Track Conditions Are
Unfavorable.
]. MARTIN IS CRITICIZED
Favorites Win Majority of Races
Juggler Is Undoubted Cham
pion Of Winter Season.

New Orleans, La, Jan. 14.-The CITY
park meeting enters on its second week
today. The sport in the main has been
of the clean, cut variety that appeals
to race-goers, and while the track CON
ditions have been unfavorab1e well
backed horses, first and second choices
have won majority of the events.
Inconsistencies of form at the meet
ing gave rise to more or less adverse
comment, as always is the case where
the accidents and incidents of racing
are not taken into account. ]. Martin
generally conceded to be the best rider
on the American turf. has come in for
good share of criticism when he has
failed to win under circumstances
where his admirers believed that he
should have a walkover. When Mar
tin, however, has had an even break
in the matter OF mounts he has given
a good account of himself, and it is
possible some of the criticism against
his riding has been unmerited.
Good Performance by JuggIer.
OF the performances of the last week
lldL Oh JuSSlST IN mile handicap in
which he lowered the track record
stands out as one Of superlative merit
Without question this horse is the
champion Of the winter season, deserv-
! ing to rank with RAMS Horn, McChes-
ney, and other noted runners which in
| previous years made name and reputa-
ton here. Juggler is a patched ur
cripple, but for which he would figure
among the best of the handicap division
on the eastern tracks. Burley & O'Neill
| have handled him with rare Judgment
and barring i'll luck he will more thar
likely turn out to be the biggest indi-
vidual winner of the season.
The Crescent City Derby with s1O.-
600 guaranteed and the City Park Derby
With $4,000 added are eliminating
features Of the local racing, and are at
tracing attention in view of the per
formances of some Of the prominent
candidates in both events. 1t is toe
early to form any adequate idea as tc
the most likely contenders in the
Derbies, but the 3-year-olds have so fan
shown enough to make it certain that
high class fields will go TO the posi-
in both races.
