hold It's regular annual meeting at the
clubhouse next Tuesday evening, be
ginning at eight O'Clock. An election
of officers viii be one of the features of
the proceedings. and then the proposed
night tournament wiz come under dis

Some of the tennis players want to
run off an invirational series, to begin
next Thursday evening and continue
for three nights. This proposition IS
not favored by all the members, and
will probably bring about gentle
manly clash during the session on Tues
dav night. While the club is said to
he strong financially and on the right
side of the balance sheet, some improve
ments are urgently needed. and the
more conservative element of the club
wants TO hold up all activities until
there are sufficient funds in the treas
ury to install dressing-rooms and other
adiuncts which 90 to make up well
regulated tennis club.
Every time one of these invitatlonal
tournaments IS pulled off, It was de

fifty dollars for lighting and other in
cideutals. in addition to the excellent
array of refreshments. which. however,
are generally donated by individual
members at considerable personal eX-
penSe. The conservative party would
hold up the festive functions until,
what thew insist are necessary, improve
mentS are made.

LOVE LIKES MATCH
The Native Cyclone May Meet
Trooper BaursoCks at
Orpheum.

jim Hoao says he VIII accept the
challenge of Trooper Baursocks of the
Fighting Fifth Cavalry for a fifteen
round go and +. J. Love saws he will
cyclone at the Orpheum pretty soon
now for the fstic fans to indulge their
emotions. Both men have fought Sol
der Mccullough and were not knocked
out. 50 they class up like a pretty good
pair for the matchmakers. Hoao's last
scrap was with the doughbov, and the
native lad got the decision. He took
no chances in his fuss with the iron
man. but the time before. when he put
It all over Tim Terrien. the two went
at IT like a pair of whirlwinds turned
loose, and Tim turned turtle when the
third squall hit him.
Love said last night that he ought
to get the Orpheum for a reasonable
rental, and he thought this match would
fill the house at reasonable prices. Joe
Cohen expects show down on the
steamer Makura from Vancouver, which
is due here on the eleventh of October
ana Love explained that he would have
to pull off his stunt before the the
atrical bunch landed, if the fight was
to take place at the Orpheum. With
these two men for the principal bout
he said he could get up a couple of good
preliminaries. Joe McGurn is anxious
to mix it with Jim, and he viii have a
chance to challenge the winner.
Love promised to get busy on the
deal the first of this week, and he
thought that he could work it up by a

OREGON WONDER IS
NOW It ON ROLLERS
Makes Faster Time Than For
rest Beat Him in Racing
With Manuel Freitas.

George Wilkinson Is Il, now that Joe
Forrest has left these parts. He came
in about half a lap ahead in his race
with Manuel Freitas at the rink last
night, covering the seventeen and
quarter laps course in three minutes.
twelve ana d half seconds This is
three and a half seconds faster than
Forrest made in his last race here when
he beat Wilkinson. His time then was
three minutes and sixteen seconds. The
oregon dyer won the toss and got the
inside Of the course. He rested his
TOE on the starting line and when E,
J. Love, who shot them off, pulled the
trigger Wilkinson rolled out on the
other foot, giving himself good start
by a kick back with his foot that toed
the line. In this manner he got away
N the lead and kept ahead to the finish
although young Freitas nestled close to
him most of the way.
Twice toward the finish Manuel got
little unsteady on his rollers, each
time loosing some ground. The first
time he regained the interval and hung
onto the Portland boys heels, but the
second wabble put him out of it. VIII
kinson seemed to be handicapped a good
deal by the continuous turn and he
swung his arms violently as he rounded
each corner. while his wheels creaked
under the strain. With such a narrow
track it might be well to bank UP the
course all around. which would give
the skaters chance to turn on the
high gear.
There was a preliminary race be-
tween Joe Frnitas and Joe Frayne.
Freitas beat Fravne about a lap and
a half, covering the mile in three min
,utes and thlrty-eight seconds. Frayne
didn t have enough ballast to hold him
down and he couldn't always keep
headed up to the course. The three

Il was announced after the races that

would either pull off a tug of war or

next Sunday night. There was some
talk last night about the length of the
race course One opinion was that the
seventeen and a quarter laps made a
short mile. Some time ago. il was said
sixteen laps were called a mile and the
whirlwinds on wheels were breaking all

P|T|FUL
CASE Of
INSANITY

Barney Schaffer. 81 years old, said
to be employed in the Inland Steel
company plant at Indiana Harhor, be-
came insane last night at Gary Mercy
hospital and he grew so restless and
noisy that 1t was necessary to summon
the Gary police and take the unfortu-
nately young man to the police station
for the night.
Young Schaffer who is said to be
married, was brought to the hospital
two weeks ago for treatment. He was
under the care OF DIR. George orr OF
the Harbor, and the man was suffering
from paralysis of the side.
II is thought that the malady af-
fected his brain and last night Schaf-
fer startled the rest of the patiens by
his loud yells. Effors to quiet him were
found futile, and as the hospital has nc
ward for such cases it was necessary
to house him in the police station over
night.

declared upon his store this morning.

employees of the grocery to cease work

However, later Mr.. Jarabek decides

NEW PLANT
OPENS Up At
CALUMET
Chicago Flexible Shaft Com
pany Begins Manufacture
of It's Products With so
Men as a Starter-Year's
Orders Ahead.

Indiana Harbor, Sept. 2-The plant
of the Chicago Flexible Shaft Company
located at 145th and Carey streets in
Calumet has been completed, the equip
ment all installed and this morning
smoke is pouring out of the big Chin
ney. the company having started on the
manufacture of their product. Fifty
men are empoyed today in the work of
turning out charcoal bricks to be used
as foot warmers in carriages.
The company has orders enough
ahead now to keep them busy for a
year at their capacity of a car load a
day, the bricks being shipped all over
the United States. The charcoal from
which the bricks are made is shipped
from Northern Michigan and is then
mixed with tar and other ingredients
after which the mixture is, put through
a big hydraulic press and cut into the
shape of bricks after coming out OF
the press. The bricks are then put
into the furnace and burned and from
the furnace they go to the cooling
room. When they have arrived at the
proper temperature they are packed In
boxes and loaded on the cars.
Onshoot of Chicago Concern.
The plant in Calumet is an offshoot
of the Chicago Flexible Shaft Com
pany which has an immense factory a.
sos LaSalle avenue. Chicago and the
warming bricks which they manufac-
ture here constitute only of
number of articles that the parent plan
produces. The plant here is ideally
located having the very best transpor-
tation facilities that can be found il
the country. They have a switch tracl
from the Indiana Harbor Belt r r
running right into the works, tina
the bringing in of the raw materia
and shipping out of the finished
product is done at the least possible
expense.
While the Chicago Flexible Shat
Company does not employ many mel
at this point as some of the other in
dustries hereabouts, the fact that the,
will run at their full capacity tn
year round makes 1t one of the bes
industrial acquisitions that the twi
cities have acquired in a long time.
