STOCKHOLM. July 7.-One, two,

finished IN the first track event OF the
Olympiad, the hundred meter dash. the
final of which was this afternoon, I'm

lean flags We're run up on lofty poles
at the end OF the stadium denoting
that we had won first second and
third places. or total of six points
in the grand summary.
1t was the first time in the history
OF Olympic contests that three flags
of the same country had been raised
at the end OF single event. and the
Sunday crowd that packed the sta

the United States.
Craig Equals Record.
The hero of the second day was
Ralph Craig. of Detroit, and Michi-
gan university, who won the event In
ten and four-fifths seconds, equaling
the Olympic record. A yard behind
him came Afvan r. Meyer, separated
inches from Donald r. Lippincott, who
was like distance ahead of Belore.
Last OF all was Patching. the speedy

entire American teams, Including

BOOST THE GAME
FOR FUTURE GOOD
GIVE THE COLTS TIE GLAD
/ HAND AND SEE THEM WIN
THE PENNANT.
BY HARRY TUCKER.

Baseball is now sailing on In the
even tenor Of Its course. There hava
been no disasters or wrecks reported
for some time. and 1t is to be hoped
that the present condition will prevail
the remainder of the season.
Richmond has fallen back into the
habit OF shouting itself hoarsa for the
Richmond team. feeling that as long
as they could not get better ball, the
worst Is better than the worst
II must be said that the Virginia
state league clubs are handing out
SOME good ball, and with Richmond
going as is being shown at this time
there will be little differences between
the standing of the Colts and the lead.
All loyal fans hope there will be no
difference, but Ii must be remembai ed
that announcement In every way
helps the players. Knocking does no
good, and the knocker should place
himself In the position OF the player.
Give the Colrs the glad hand, and
boost them on TO the pennant for.
everything along that line will mean
something greater next year.
And that liz What Richmond wants.
There is little doubt thar the local
magnates Will give the fans what they
want, and, getting that, peace win
reign But 1t is up to the fans to keep
baseball Ia the air Once 1t is killed
by knocking or otherwise. there will
be no sort of ball here for several
years. This is the history of the game

UNDERWOOD
AND THE PAPERS

The careful reader of the newspapers
is surprised at one notable feature of
the papers from practically every sec
ton of the country. This feature is the
general notice and attention paid to Con-
gresham Oscar Underwood as candi-
date for the Democratic presidential
nomination, and the uniform praise
which invariably accompanies the mem
ton of him and his candidacy. This is
all the more surprising because Mr.. Un-
derwood maintains no press bureau. On
the other hand, prominent candidates
for the Democratic nomination like Gov
|ernor Harmon of Ohio, Governor VIII
son of New Jersey and Speaker Clark
of Missouri, maintain large and active
bureaus, which are continually sending
out campaign literature to the papers
Of the country.
Notwithstanding this, at the present
time Mr.. Underwood is receiving more
attention than any other, we might say
any other two, presidential candidates
combined. The attitude of the voters
towards Mr.. Underwood may be doubted
until that attitude is made clear in an
election, but it cannot be doubted that
his record and his strong personality
are admired by the newspapers Of the
