lie found drastic ordinances in sone
municipalities that could only serve
to make the citizens fight them; he
found in other cities. laws that could
not possibly be forced. AS a result Of
his Investigation. he declares that the
progress can be made in cities
by the authorities insisting that in all
new buildings furnaces shall be in
stalled that are absolutely smokeless.
In his report he quotes a number of
the different smoke ordinances, eX-
plains where they are good and bad,
and builds up a series of ordinances
that might prove Of value to munici-
palities of various sizes.
Cooperation Necessary.
Mr.. Flagg says: ut is quite certain
that the greatest advances in smoke
abatement in our cities have come in
the past and must come in the future.
through the organized effort Of the
city smoke inspection departments,
supplemented by the active co-opera-
ton Of citizens. 4. strong public senti-
ment in favor of smoke abatement is
almost an absolute necessity, If sat
isfactory results are to he accomplish
ed. The time. may come when public
sentiment against permitting the es-
cape of dense smoke will be so strong
that every plant owner OF operator
will feel obliged to prevent such es-
cape of smoke regardless of the eA-
istence of an ordinance or of his own
personal feeling or inclinations. This
condition does not prevail today in
II city in the United States. Just as
soon as each individual realizes that
it is not only his duty. but that it will
work to his own benefit t q cooperate
! In that which will result III the great
est good to all. Just SO soon will the
necessity for a smoke ordinance dis

ing hituminous coal are radically
changed. such Il necessity will exist in
those localities where large quanti-
ties of such coal are consumed.

Here and There in the World of Sport--Winter Season Cossip
Not Properly Designed.

Under present conditions It 10 too
often the case that buildings r 30
designed as to leave insufficient room
for the proper equipment. Boilers are
so placed tina they can not be prop
erly cleaned or operated; hence they
crowded In. and smoke-producing con-
ditions result. It is therefore import
ant that the situation Of the boiler
plant and the providing Of adequate
space for 1t should receive considera-
ton no less than the proper design Of
furnaces. Obviously, to accomplish
these ends, persistent and systematic
as we'll as scientifically correct meth
DDS must be adopted. In other words.
organization is necessary, and tho Or
dinance should specify not only how
the work is to be organized. but also
carry 1t on. Satisfactory progress will
ton is such that certain oficials or
employees give their entire attention to
the work of smoke abatement and =
held responsible for the results pro-
duced. If the installation Of improp-
erly designed furnaces is prevented.

Will eventually be reduced to a mini
mum The ACCESSIBILITY Of making this
sort of provision is clearly shown in
nearly any one Of the cities where
this protective work is not done, by
the fact that some Of the newest
plants have been so constructed that
dense smoke emitted a large part Of
the time, even though the firing MAY
be done with n fair degree Of care
and intelligence.
THE most important conclusion
reached is that smoke abatement by
ordinance can not hope to succeed I'M
less supported by public sentiment.
N that a smoke ordinance should
look to future prevention rather than
an immediate prohibition. In other
words, strict control of furnace con-
struction offers much greater hope for
smoke abatement than desultory inn
position of severe penalties on the es-
cape Of dense or black smoke.

RYAN INVENTED
CROUCH START
Former Irish Amateur and
Famous Splinter First
Used Style in 1884.

AS the result OF an investigation IN
regard To the first user of the crouch
start for foot runners, made by sew
cral followers of athletics in this vi
cinity, it has been rather definitely
settled that Jimmy Ryan. a former
Irish amateur. who later ran Il num-
he: of professional races in the west,
WAS the first man tn put the now ac-
copied best style OF starting into use.
NJ. *. Kittlennnn of California, one
of the fastest sprinters OF his time.
stated that Ryan in all his contests
west of the Rockies and prior to 1881
adopted tho ''all-fours" style, and, as
it had not been mastered by n other
ped" at that time. he was said to be
in a class hy himself at what Was
then considered II peculiar style OF
starting.
Acknowledged to be a yard and a
half better than amy system OF getting
away from the mark which has ever
been used. the "crouch, when proper
~ used. has the advantage over the
stand-up style of enabling a man to
hold his mark for il greater period,
get Il stronger pushawaN, n get in
to his running quicker.
Many Have Claimed Distinction.
prior to its appearance the nearest
approach to the crouch" in the mat
ter of getting into action quickly was
that which warranted a mans rum
ming out IF his hole" from the back
leg, which was simply the down start
standing. This style was hut little
used, most runner affecting the dab
a pecking action with the forward
leg, after which the back leg had to
come through. This latter style COM
PEELED the runner to make two move

running from his back leg did in one.
with the result that the user of the
latter style was into his running Il
yard or more to the good of the user
Of the dab"
There have been many claimants to
the distinction of inventor of the
Crouch" which is thought to have
been discovered by some one who had
a penchant for breaking over his
mark with the use of the dab" fall
ing on ''all fours." in an endeavor to
save himself. only to have the start
er's pistol crack. w%hereupon he
found that it was IA natural thing to
get off his hands and right into his
runniE, as is the vogue now.
In making inquiry as to the first us
er, James f. Sullivan. president of the
Metropolitan association of h Anna
teur Athletic union, asked the dean
of American trainers. Mike Murphy.
what he knew about the matter. The
latter asserts that he used it as far
back as 1881. No one can be found
to su%bstantiatc Murphy's contention in
regard to his use of the style as he
used the stand-up method in 1886 in
a handicap run at the old Williams
burg A. c. grounds.
In his reply to Sullivan. Murphy
stated that when he tried the style
first he thought it the fastest method.

today, destroys the popular notion
thai smoke may he lessened by the
use OF Il so-called "smok. consumer"
