not keep on the lawns. as they were
supposed TO do, and the Mayor stopped
TO have look al one of the so-called

The Mayor appeared shortly after 3

Sunday last year. l never heard any
thing about the opening of the tempo

But there were thousands of persons
on the lawn supposed to be given up ex-
clusively to the tennis players The
Mayor observed all this. He had re
yiously asked which of the lawns were
open. Near by the one assigned to ten
mis- was a closed one. Yesterday It
couldn't hold many more persons.
From there the trip took in tour Of
the east and west drives, during which
time the Mayor looked over the North
Meadow, which has been ploughed up.
and later over the ball green, which has
been similarly treated.
While some of the more conspicuous
lawns were free of people many of those
in secluded places were crowded. Tho
police said 1t was impossible to keep the
crowds off of such places.
The Mayor got out Of his car several
times and looked around, but made no
observations when he returned to his
car. Finally after visiting the carrousel
and looking over other sections Of the
park, he told the chauffeur to head for
