Motor truck makers are jubilant
over the recent announcement from
Washington that the United States
would officially and thoroughly test
commercial motor vehicles for use in
the army. The decision to investigate
the truck, with view of adopting it in
the service of the army, has been
hailed with joy by manufacturers, for
they see a broad. new market open
ing for them. They are supremely
confident that, with thorough test.
the truck will so clearly demonstrate
its superiority over the horse and
mule that it will be designated as
regular army equipment within a
very short time.
1.-THE government, as represented
by the army, is bound to be a Gus
toner for trucks soon," said a promi-

worth to cause a revolution in army

view of determining how much
more efficient and economical it is
imam the horse-and-wagon system
now In use. The Importance of this
test cannot be overestimated. We
are confident that it will result in an
excellent showing for the truck. and
IL this proves true we will have a
vast new market opened for our prod

GOLFER SMITH HAS
NO AL|b| COMING
Admits Americans We're Fairly
Beaten, but Had a GlOr-
iOus Time.

NEW YORK, July 15.-Alec Smith,
of Wykagl, former open champion
of the United States and several times
the metropolitan open title holder,
returned from abroad on the Caronia
yesterday in company with his
daughter and Mike Brady, the VOL
laston professional. Smith captained
the team of American pros" that
went to La Boulie, France, to COM
pete in the first Franco-American
team match in the history of the
game, the members having previous
ly taken part in the British open
championship at Hoylake.
IT have no regrets nor excuses,
said Smith, 1--WE had a glorious time
and were treated like princes. We
were beaten at La Boulie by golfers
who knew the ground, and they sim
ply putted like fiehds. The criticism
sent to America of the links there
was true to the extent that the man
who pulls and slices can get away
with it, which more than offset our
own method of keeping everlastingly
on the flag.
when a man is not we'll punished
for a drive which is off direction.
and can, moreover, putt so well. what
can we do with him?' asked Smith.
HE has no disadvantage at lack of
distance, for that is the way the links
is built, and when he can do better
than we on the green, why, 1t Is
simply a case of being beaten.
For all that, they are fine players.
and don't you forget it. 1t will be
interesting to watch Teller and Mas
sy at Brookline in our open tourna-
ment, where to get away with drive
which is not strictly on the flag Is to
court disaster.
ST think Gassiat. the French cham
pion, will come along" Smith said.
although it is doubtful. Gassiat's
style is not pleasing to look at His
swing is almost ugly, but he is won
derfully effective, and through his
ability to get results he is a danger
Gus man in competition.
81 have nothing but praise for
McDermott and Mcnamara in the
British open. They played like the
champions they are. They arrived
home Saturday on the Amerika and
went at once to their homes.
"All of us professionals hope that
the six famous players from France
and England can come over, for we
will give them an interesting time
at Brookline. No, hardly think the
American title will go beyond our own
shores. McDermott will see to that.
Brady is going finely too, and McNa-
mara is always dangerous. I'm play
ing we'll myself and l think that there
are others who will help a lot to
repel the invasion.
tied Ray is wonderful golfer, but
| imagine he will not be able to play
Brookline to any extent. Vardon IS
the only dangerous man for us to
consider I hardly think Ray will
finish among the 6rst dozen, and
Warden will do little better, although
Harry knows our courses much better
than the others and is more adaptable
to circumstances. / tell you we are
just keen for them to come over.
You'll see some great golf"
Smith has arranged to meet the
Celtic when that ship arrives in this
port early next month with Vardon,
Ray, Reid, Massey and Teller aboard.
The Celtic will sail from Europe on
August s.

LAST OF STOLEN GEMS
FOUND BURIED IN PARK


NEW YORK. July 15.-The final
confession of young William Beck,
who stole 100000 worth of jewelry
from his employers, Udall & Ballou,
has now been obtained. The last
$500 of the loot was found by de-
tectives. 1t was buried in Central
Park.
Beck had insisted. until yesterday
that he had told all. But Inspector
Faurot finally got him to reveal the
hiding place. The police were told
to enter the park at One Hundred
and Tenth street and Eighth avenue
and count eighteen stone blocks in
the wall to a spot where small
bush grew. Buried six inches they
found nine diamond rings and a paii
of cuff buttons.

Between
Ourselves

A Pennsylvania man, famous
for his luxuriant raven locks
also for his nimble habits of jail
breaking and l-jumping--was
recently sentenced by a stony
hearted Judge to have his hair cut
TWICE A MONTH FOR ONE
YEAR.
Think of the terrors of such a
thing!
According to the papers he
begged piteously to have the
sentence suspended, but the court
was obdurate.
Snip! Snip! Snip off must come
Handsome Harry's ebony locks
twice every month.
Here arises the question of how
often a man should visit his bar
Der in order to be always prop
erly shorn. Some say once
month. Some say every six weeks.
Some men who affect the Buffalo
Bill style of coiffure maintain
that it ISN'T NECESSARY TO
INTERVIEW A BARBER AT
ALL.
The writer is prone to agree
with the Pennsylvania Judge. A
man, to appear at his best,
should have his hair cut or trim
med every ten days or, at the
most, every two weeks. Nothing
denotes character. or lack of
character. so much as the way
ones hair is trimmed. The UN-
DER BARBERE ED man has a slim
chance these days.

This action is evidently a result OF the

Wesleyan Wins at Basketball
by Accurate Shooting.

New Haven, Jan. Yale showed
strength in her opening basketball game
against Wesleyan tonight. although de-
feated by a score Of % TO Il. 1t was the
fourth straight victory for the visitors.
The game was fast and clean, both
teams playing clever passing game.
Yale was stronger in floor work. and if
her shooting had been anywhere near as
accurate as Wesleyan's would have won
easily. Wesleyan had few chances To
shoot but was remarkably accurate. Yale
apparently has the strongest team in re-
cent years and with experience should
prove formidable.
Wesleyan led at the end Of the first
half. 10 to Q. scoring two goals In the
last half minute OF play. In the second,
accurate shooting maintained Wesleyan
lead For Yale. Captain Swihart and
Detz starred. and Hayward and Allison
were the main factors in Wesleyan $
