INDUSTRIAL TRAINING
FOR CHILDREN URGED
American Federation of Labor
Officers Favor Plan

WASHINGTON. Oct 23.-The social
and industrial conditions in the United
States demand that industrial educa-
tion for rich and poor alike should be
democratic. This conclusion was reached
by many prominent leaders of worlSin g
men and industrial educators address
ing the American federation of labor's
committee on industrial education to-
day.
Suggesting that European countries
were far ahead of the United States in
the matter of fitting young girls and
boys for a trade, Charles F. Richards of
New York city. originator of the ma
tional society for the promotion of in
dustrial education. argued that the
committee should light for a plan that
would relieve the American schooIboy
of the confusing plight of not knowing
what to do when turned away from
school. He declared more than one
fourth of the boys left the public
schools in New York before graduation

he regarded as due to the lack of indus.

Vice President James Duncan of the
federation strongly indorsed the propo-
sition of introducing Industrial training
into the last grades of the grammar
schools.

HAZEL HOTCHKISS NERVOUS AND
MAY SUTTON TAKES EASY VICTORY
Former Worlds Champion First Appearance San Francisco
Makes Crowd Marvel Her Skill

Several thousand spectators wit
messed the exhibition tennis matches
played on the Golden Gate park courts
yesterday The weather was ideal for
tennis ard the contestants did their
best to give the large crowd run for
its money Most Of the matches proved
close and interesting. and the honors
were about evenly divided between the
northern and southern players.
It was the first appearance of former
worlds champion May sutton on the
local courts in match play. and she
proved the big attraction. In National
Champion Hazel Hotchkiss she met a
contestant well suited to show her off
at her best It was the same old
story Miss Hotchkiss tried every trick
she knew and made the effort of her
life to lower the coIors of the worlds
best woman player but all in vain.
Miss Sutton won two straight sets. but
had few anxious moments at the
close Of the second set The score in
Miss sutton's favor was e-l. e--4.
Miss Hotchkiss was nervous at the
outset the large crowd and the fact
that she was opposed to Miss May sut-
ton, throwing her off her game Miss
Sutton. on the other hand waded right
in from the start and, as usual. was
ObIivious of the crowd She had her
strokes well in hand. and Miss Hotch-
kiss found it Impossible TO penetrate
her defense After number Of unavail-
ing efforts 10 work Miss sutton out Of
position. she gave up and took ali kinds
of chances. Miss sutton went right on
with her steady game. with the result
that Miss Hotchkiss began 10 net the
balls and put Them out of bounds with
surprising regularity.
Miss Sutton won the first five games

Hotehkiss seemed determined to take
al ieast one game and made a supreme
effort She brought tie score to deuce
and finally won the game The next
game Miss sutton took easily
Miss Hotchkiss shed her nervousness
during the first set and came out for
the second set determined to do her
best and at least make . creditabIe
showing against her relentless oppo-
nent Miss sutton, despite her easy
victory in the opening set. did not let
down a particle, with the result that
she took the nrst three games Of the
second set and it looked like another
waikoser for the former champion.
Aiss Hotehkiss, however took an un-
expected brace. and TO the surprise of
tho spectators evened UP the score at
s-s and took tho lead in the seventh
game at go From this point on it
was = desperate fight and the closing
games proved one Of the prettiest CON
Anuts ever played on the public courts.
The San Francisco call., 1909-10-24

Miss sutton had her back and forehand
drive working to perfection and placed
the balls wherever she pleased Miss
Hotchkiss was on the run constantly
and the pace became SO fast during the
last game of the match that she tainted
and was unable to proceed for 10 min
utes. When she regained her strength
sufficiently to proceed she again took
up the uneven struggle, but she had
made her last desperate stand when she
brought the score to deuce, and the last
two points of the match Miss Sutton
won easily
Miss sutton played her usual game
and showed neither Improvement nor
retrogression. There is little room for
Improvement, in fact. and throughout
the match Miss 4Iotchkiss seemed to
realize that it was no use. Outside of
her stand at the finish she never was
in the hunt and Miss Sutton. scored as
easily as she does against all of her
opponents. Many of the spectators had
never seen the much heralded worlds
champion play before and they left
satisfied that the praise bestowed upon
her has been well earned. She has lost
none of her skill and looks to have the
championship title al her mercy for
years to come, if she cares to go after
it.
The first match of the day between
the strachan brothers and Charles
Rodgers. junior champion of the coast,
and Willie Johnston. a local junior.
proved about the closest Of the day.
The four youngsters fought like ban

doubt right up to the finish The

probably because very few northern
