TWO WOMEN TO
TAME WILD MOR0S
Mrs. Lorillard Spencer and
Deaconess Will Make
Years Crusade.
WANT TRIRESMEN TO
DROP WAR FOR WORK
Schools and Dispensaries Are to
Replace Bullet Doctrine--NO
Religions Plans.

"Purelv humanitarian. and not relig-
ious." was the way Miss Virginia Young
formerly head deaconess Of St George $
p F. church. characterized the work
she and Mrs. LOrillard Spencer are plan
ming 10 carry out among the Moros IN
the Philippines.
They sail Friday. and will so directly
to a Moro village whore they will teach
the Moros how to live.
1T will he a distinctly non-Christian
mission" said Miss Young. The Moros
are fanatic Mahometans and we shall
not be able to reach them through re-
ligion-not at first.
Mrs. Spencers idea is to start dis
pensary, then a farm school for boys ana
an Industrial school for girls. All our
workers will be volunteers and we shall
not be connected with any organization.
II l. reported that Mrs. Spencer Is
financing the expedition. She came to
New York yesterday from Newport TO
complete her preparations for the jour
ney Miss Young will accompany her,
and the teachers and doctor Will follow
Miss Catherine Buffum and Miss Starry
Brown have volunteered their services,
and Clinton Hulburt who will act as
Interpreter. will join them in Manila.
Mrs Spencer became interested In the
Moros. through Mrs. Young's report OF
the conditions she found in the southern
Philippine Islands last summer while on
a trip with Mrs. Spencer.
They are living in barbarous state, y
said Mrs. Young, with no idea OF Amer
ican civilization. They know American
machine guns because numbers of them
are moved down by them every time
they Kill an American We shall try 10
educate them in different way. through
our schools and our diSpensary. We shall
live among them and try to learn their
needs and teach them to be useful MEM
bers OF society.
Bishop Brent is doing wonderful work
among the Moros. AMI it was on trip
to investigate his work with thirty native
orphan children that | became interested
and explored further in the islands.
There is great need for missionary
work particularly OF the educational and
medical sort After while, perhaps,
when the work has been we'll started and
seems to be promising, We may turn over
the mission 10 the Episcopal Board OF
Missions
Mrs. Spencer has said that she expects
10 remain in the Philippines a year.

M'NAMARA-CREBS
RACE IS FEATURE
Sprint Match Billed for the Mo-
tOrdrOme Is Attracting
Attention.
COLLINS IN COMPETITION

The French style match race, best
two in three heats at half mile be-
tween Reggie Mcnamara, of Aus
tralia, and Albert Crebs, Of Salt Lake
City, carded as one of the feature
events on tonight's program at the
Stadium Motordrome, is causing quite
an interest among the fans. Nc
Namara has already entrenched him
self solidly with the patrons of the
Drome by his great riding in the
handicaps. Whether Mcnamara will
also make good as sprint match
rider remains to be seen. He has
shown great strength in the long,
hard races, but has generally not had
the necessary finishing jump when
tackled by Spears. his fellow coun-
tryman This he has attributed to his
lack of condition. due to the long
layoff, and he has been working out
all week, practising jumps and short
sprints, with the match in view.
The second match, multicycle
paced affair, will serve to introduce
Elmer Collins in competition. Collins
rode an exhibition behind human
pace last Saturday night. He will
meet Frank Cory, of Australia, and
the distance will be ten miles All
the best pros at the track will be
used in furnishing pace. Tandems,
triplets, quads and a sextet will be
employed
A fifteen-lap pro handicap VIII
mark the last of the lap races. In
the future all races will be run at
regular mileage distances. Manager
Turville has had the track surveyed
again to verify the figures, and races
will be staged in the future with the
view of setting up new records
In the handicap tonight Spears,
Cory, Root and Hill will be started
from scratch, and the handicaps Will
sprinkle the men around the track
all the way to the 30O-yard mark.
Lap prizes should insure fast pace.
and the back-markers will have to
keep going every minute If they ex-
pect to figure in the prize list
A one-mile open, in which every
man will have to show to the front
at least once before the three-quarter
post If he wishes to avoid disqualifi-
cation at the finish. should insure
hot scramble for the lead on every
lap.
Harry Kaiser, of New York, who
has been winning regularly in the
simon pure division, has been brought
back to scratch along with Tommy
Smith and Gus Wohlrab in the two
mile handicap. In addition, the anna
tours will have a half-mile open and
an eight-lap novice race.
