SPEEDY INDIAN TO
TURN PROFESSIONAL
LONGBOAT TIRES OF RUNNING
FOR TROPHIES
Had Several Amateur Races In Pros
pect, but Suspension Knocked
Them out-May Race
Alfred Shrubb

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July S1-Close upon the
heels of the news that Tom Longboat
was likely to get into trouble about his
amateur status ere long comes the an
nouncement in the Hamilton (Ontario)
Herald that the speedy redskin has been
suspended for three months by the Can
adlan Amateur Athletic union, and in
consequence will turn professional.
The reason given for Longboat's sus-
pension is a very slight one. 1t seems
that Longboat has been cutting up some
high capers, and news of his antics
reaching the West End Y. M. c. A, that
body promptly suspended him for con
duct unbecoming a member" The c. A.
A. u, followed the lead of the Y. M.
c. A, and dealt out a three months
suspension to the lanky son Of the for
est
Upon hearing of this, Longboat imme-
diately announced tnat he was through
with amateur sports for good and would
Immediately see Arthur Duffey in regard
to match race with Alfred Shrubb of
England. .1ere is the Indians statement:
II didn't want to be professional, but
there is nothing left for me to do" he
said. 81 wanted to run DAILY here on
July 20, and was here training for the
event. When the West End suspended
thought it would not interfere with my
running. Now that l am prevented from
running amateur L might just as well
turn professional now as any time. I
have done nothing wrong except have a
little fun in Hamilton when l was on my
holidays. 1 don't want to work all the
time. Just because I go away and have
a little fun they suspend me-"
Longboats suspension just at this time
dashes Canada's hopes of winning the
Marathon race at the London Olympiad
next year, and his loss to Canadian anna
teur athletics is almost a knockout blow.
1t is thought in local circles that there
is something more than personal behavior
behind Longboat's suspension. 1t has
long been known here that his amateur
standing was in very shaky condition,
and in all probability the Indian had been
caught with the goods" and will have
to take his medicine. Suspending man
for his behavior off the athletic field is
new move. according to the local experts,
who are quite sure that professionalism
Is Longboats real offense.
One may now look for some great pro-
fessional running races between Long
boat and Shrubb, in which some worlds
professional records are bound to fall.

LONG BEACH CHOSEN
FOR PASADENA PICNIC
Committee So Decides at Meeting This
MISREPRESENTATION at
Naples Are Insufficient
for Large Crowd

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, July a.-At a meeting OF
the committee of arrangements for Pasa-
dena day at the beaches held at the
hoard of trade rooms yesterday 1T was
decided to abandon the plan of hold
ing the annual celebration at Naples
August Is.
While the water course there Is all
that could be desired, there are not
enough boats to handle such CROWD
as is expected to emanate from this city
on that day, the accommodations Tor
l1nching would hardly meet the demands
of five or six thousand people and the
shade available is hardly adequate for
such an occasion, if the day should be
q hot one.
Last night the members of the COM
mittee iourneyed to Long Beach to learn
more definitely what that city has to
offer.
Its facilities for caring for crowd
are ample but there would not be the
same exclusiveness which might be Sc
cured for the party at pretty quiet
place like Naples.
However, Long Beach offered attractive
inducements and the picnic will be held
there on the original date, August 10,
and the round trip fare will be 70 cents.
AS A. badge for Pasadena day the COM
mittee has chosen white button on a
poinsettia, appended to which is a red
ribbon Pasadena" will be the magic
word upon the button.

In her testimony she charged that the
two police officers were on the lookout
watching for chance to arrest her on
the charge of speeding; that she had
learned to know them and cautioned her
brother not to drive too fast on the day
in question because she expected they
were on guard along Orange Grove ave-
nue.. That she kept an eye on the speeuo-
meter and that their speed did not exceed
fifteen miles an hour over the section OIL
street where they were timed by the Of
ficers She was handsomely attired In
