signals to flash to batter or base
runner some play decided on.
Likewise in the field the players
have signals which tell who shall
cover the base on a throw from
the catcher, also when a throw is
desired to catch a man mapping
Some teams have more compli-
Gated code than others, although
managers prefer a simple signal,
being content to change if the OPP
position is getting wise.

England All Het Up Over Poor Olympic Outlook;
Jap Breaks Marathon Record In Olympic Tryout

1t will be a wonderful team of
athletes that sails from New
York next June to represent this
country in the Olympian games.
The pick of the amateur world
will accompany Mat Halpin and
James Sullivan, to uphold Ameri-
can supremacy against the world.
Everywhere young men, who
shine in some branch of sport are
preparing themselves for the tests
whereby the team will be selected.
An indication of the form to be
expected is shown in the recent
performance of Ralph Rose, the
giant California shot putter, who
broke the worlds record, and the
running of M Sheppard, in re-
cent indoor games.
The United States will not be
represented, officially, in at least
one event the women's swim
ming and diving competition.
Secretary Sullivan has declared
that the A. A. u. will not take
women competitors abroad.

Usual Plan in Distribution of Tickets
to the Candidates.

Chicago. May 30.-Colonel Harry S.
New, chairman of the sub committee
on arrangements for the Republican
national convention, today, refused a
request from Senator Dixon. head of
the Roosevelt committee for 250 tick
cts to the convention. Colonel New
explained that in other conventions
the national committee had never
recognized candidates in issuing tick
cts. Four years ago $50 tickets were
given to President Roosevelt, but none
WAS issued to Mr.. Taft. This year
the committee has arranged for $50
tickets to be given to President Taft
for his friends. cabinet officers and
government officials. but no provision
has been made for the supporters of
Colonel Roosevelt.
The question of what pictures should
adorn the convention hall was settled,
today, by Chairman Upham, who de-
cided that the likeness of neither
President Taft nor Colonel Roosevelt
should be used in the decorations.
