WalbrOOk Eleven Is
Next Vigilant Foe

Expressions of JOY were heard on all
sides today when the news that an ex-
tension of injunction had been granted
the Vigilant a. C., which will permit
the nlaying of Sunday football at the
Vjgilant Park throughout the present
season. Through Attorney Daniel
Baker. the Commissioners have issued
the extension pending a writ of GER
tiorari In the Supreme Court, which will
be acted upon during the winter term.
Next Sunday the Walbrook Athletic
Club, the speediest eleven OF Baltimore
city. and in fact. all Maryland, will op-
pose the Big lads at the local en-
closure, and ii is thought by the closest
followers of independent football that
one of the closest contested games Of
the season will be witnessed. The Wal
brooks have reputation second to none
in Independent football circles of the
East, but this has not kept Manager
OIiveri from matching them with his

CHAPTER ",

The asphalt glittered with the gla2e of recent rain, rehecting countless, lights of many colors. The sidewalks crowded with gay theatergoers, were as colorful and animated as the chang ing figures of a child's kaleidoscope and he smiled at them. Even the odoi of burned gasoline which drowned the peril of fair women's presence seemed as frankincense and myrrh to him-for this was Broadway, the be loved thoroughfare.
 And was it not to be his last night in it's glitter, his last hearing of it's medley. his last glimpsing of it's nery of the prisoner who sees his friends and joys in them before he marches to the guillotine.
 In the restaurant there was obvious stir when he arrived There always WAS q stir in restaurants when he ar rived. With practiced and a clever eve he exa.nined with great care the private dining-room wherein was to be sung. the swan-song of his speudthrifti- ness. It was extremely well arranged the table was dazzling sight. the flowers were gorgeous and of al-per- vading fragrance, the colored candle shades cast a subdued. artistic glow upon the whole. The head waiter himself, his neck enchained in sign of office, was in personal control of details. his staff had been we'll picked

that red label differed from the red of the red roses! It was not at all the red of the red lobster!
 In his dining he had reached that stage where over-stimulated emotion found an outlet i'll the bitterest self condemnation which he yet had man aged to evolve since the beginning of his self-condemnatory days-that is, since he had been awakened to the realization of the disappearance of his patrimony and the utter hopelessness of everything. He looked at the great decoration in the center of the table and said gravely, so that all might hear, although he was addressing no one but the lobster:
 You may be big, old chap, but know bigger lobster than you ever were"
 It happened at that instant that a pause had come in the excited ie" ousness about him-one of those brief, unexpected silences which never fail at least once in every dinner party. to reveal to everyone some saying which the saver wished to have unheard bv the majority. Always it is something awkward inadvertent. stupid or un- wholesome which Is thus made bla- tantly the property of everybody's ears. This night it was our young hosts confidential statement to the great. red decorative lobster in the center Of his dinner table.
 There was a chorus Of inquiry. If rroadwsy knew bigger lobster who was he and where?

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1o-The
Chinese government through Ameri-
can Minister Reinsch is urging the
American Red Cross to influence
American bankers to advance an i'm
mediate loan OF $1,000. 900 on the pro-
posed Huai river project SO that suf-
ferers from the late flood in that dis
trict may be kept from starvation
through employment on the great re-
clamation work.
Minister Reinsch in a dispatch TO
the state department today said IL
the work could be commenced imme-
diately "a vast additional benefit
would be gained by affording work
and relief TO the million or more OF
people who would otherwise be ex-
posed to suffering and death" Point
ing out that the immediate advance
OF this money would combine in one
enterprise immediate and permanent
relief" Minister Reinsch added that
the report Of the engineers commits
sion upon the project was so favor.
able that all doubts as to the eco
nomic soundness and the lasting ben
efits to be secured had been dispelled.
More than year ago the Red
Cross began negotiations looking to
the Improvement OF the Huai river so
that the floods that have devastated
the region throughout the ages might
be prevented. Upon receipts OF an
expert report that the plan was feas-
ible, the Red Cross undertook to in
