NEWARK ATHLETES
ENTER A PROTEST
FuItz and Walsha Claim Mis-
take Was Made in Distance
of Race.
PRIZES AWARDED, THOUGH

A rather disquietlng aftermath to
the Entire Nous Lyceum games that
were held in Paterson on Saturday
afternoon was unearthed by the pro-
test made by James Fultz and C. A.
Walsha, both of this city. The two
athletes named competed in the 1,000-
yard handicap event Before the race
was started the announcement was
made that the runners would cover
three laps of the track and an added
hundred yards, making the distance
an even thousand yards. Louis Cor
dom of Yonkers, was placed on
scratch, with Joe Bromilow, of Pat
erson, on a thirteen-yard mark, Fultz
on a thirty-yard mark, and Walsha
on forty-seven-yard handicap.
When the runners completed the
hundred yards the limit men were
closely punched. During the first lap
the back men caught up. little, am
the second lap found the men still
tunehSd, Brownlow forging rapidly
ahead at the heels of Fultz and Wal
sha In the third-lap the three men
ran ahead of the field and Fultz,
Walsha and Bromilow finished in the
order when the men came to the tape
at what they thought was the finish
of the race. They slowed up. Louis

started to leave the track with the
rest of the exhausted men when the
timers yelled to the runners to cover
another lap. The Yonkers crack re-
turned to the track and covered an
other lap. Walter Poswe and John
Hopkins, New York, who had stayed
on the track, finished first and third,
with Gordon in second position. The
referee, George Hattersley, then
caused a time of two minutes, eight
cen and three fifth seconds to be an
nounced.
Fultz, Walsha and Bromilow pro-
tested that the winners had covered
1900 yards, and in this they were
backed up by Gordon, Harry Coates,
Jim Kinlock, and a host of athletes.
Instead of holding up the prizes UNI
til the protest was settled, the prize
committee awarded them to the men
they declared the winners. When
asked concerning the time announced,
Hattersley said that he didn't re-
member which timer had given him
the time. According to Bromilow,
someone at the tape caught Fultz in
the time of ais as.
1t is understood that the matter
will be taken up with the A. A. U.
authorities.

AND BEHR
CONTINUE BATTLE
Rivals for Place in Davis Cup
Doubles Meet on Champion
ship Court.
SITUATION STILL MUDDLED

Another trial In the interesting
tussle between Karl Behr and
Thomas c. Bundy for a place on the
Davis cup doubles team took place
yesterday on the championship court
of the West Side Tennis Club at For
est Hills, Long Island, where the
challenge matches are to begin on
August H. The shift to the scene of
international competition appeared to
put renewed Vigor INTO the Davis
cup squad and they played splendid
tennis, but at the end the doubles
situation was far from beinaacleared.
Behr was the first to team with
Maurice Mclaughlin against T. *.
Pell and r. Norris Williams. End, in
a two-set match and then Bundy
took Behrs place against the same
opponents. In each case MeLough-
Inns side triumphed in straight sets
and the scores were almost allke,
Behr and Mclaughlin winning, 81,
6-3, and Bundy and Mclaughlin,
60, 6-3.
Those who have contended that
Mclaughlin plays more effeetiVely
with Bundy than with any other
doubles partner had another strong
argument to present, for certain 1t IS
that the national champion was fifty
per cent better Ia the second match
than in the first At the same time,
however, the facts must not be over
looked that Pell and Williams We're
fresher and far steadier against Behr
and Mclaughlin than against Bundy
and the national champion, that
Bundy entered into the activity when
Pell and Wnliams's game was losing
power. and that individually Behr
played equally effective and far more
aggressive tennis than Bundy.
Behr. in fact, did the bulk OF the
work in the opening match, his speed,
particularly at the net, offsetting
McLoughlin's unusually numerous
errors. Pelrs fine driving gave his
side a 4 to 3 lead in the opening set,
but Behr and Mclaughlin overcame
the handicap by taking three straight
games.
The second match was all Nc
Iougblin on the attack and Bundy
on the defense. The latter was lar
steadier than either Pell OF Williams
but his play lacked power. 1t was
who usually ended the
rallies with smashing placements.

POSTOFFICE OR RAILROADS?

The railroads are very busy these days III seek
ing to mould public opinion TO their way OF
thinking that they should get increased pay from
the Postofice Department for carrying the mails.
And as to there being any reduction IN the pay
there is a howl coming from the railroads
Newspapers throughout the country get cr-
cularized information from railroad sources Wnich
set out that the railroads ought to get more
money for hauling the mails instead OF less money
and the railroad side is set forth with well
phrased pleas. The effort is to have the public
believe that the railroads are being very badly
treated by the Postofice Department, and every
time that a paper prints one of these railroad CIR
culars the railroads are getting in their work OF
attempting to influence public opinion.
The Postofice Department has turned over a
surplus to the government for the past fiscal year,
and it IS saving money. We have a well dehned
idea that the people would rather be guided by
the judgment of the ~postoffice officials as to what
ought to be paid for transporting the mails than
by the railroads.
The view taken by The Commoner is the cor
rect one. In the current issue Of that pubhca-
ton here is what is said: The railroads are
bombarding the people with appeals not to per
NIT the Post6f6ce Department to reduce the
price paid them for carrying the mails until after
a committee appointed two or three years ago
has been allowed to report that their pay ought
to be increased. The chances are that the people
will conclude that the Postof6ce Department,
which is trying to save them money, is a better
Judge of the matter than the railroads. They
remember that the express companies were much
perturbed because the Postofhce Department in
sisted on establishing the parcels post, since which
time the express companies have been operating
under greatly reduced rates.

A NEEDED LAW.

One of the most important matters before Con
sress is the bill aimed at the elimination of eamb-
ling in cotton futures. On such a bill final agree
ment has been reached by House and Senate con-
ferees, the dispatches say. This is we'll, as the
evil is one which has existed for a long time and
one the curling of which the best interests of the
people, particularly the cotton growers of the
South, have demanded for a long time.
Congressman Lever, of South Carolina, who
has been the patron of the bill in the House. saws
it will save the farmers of the South one hundred
million dollars and will increase the foreign trade
Of the country by more than forty million dol
lars a year. 1t is possible that Mr.. Lever is too
sanguine as to the good effects which will Aow

SHYING AT CAPITALS.

A tendency which is becoming more and more
marked among the newspapers Of the country Is
to use a lower case letter in place of a capital in
many names and designations of positions in
which in years past the teaching was to use
capitals.
Here are illustrations: President lof the United
States as president; Democrat as democrat and
Republican as republican,, in referring to these
two parties; Secretary of War as secretary Of
war. And yet in the same papers we find King
and Queen and Gar and Emperor begun with q
capital letter.
We recognize that there are what are known
as up" and down styles among newspapers.
This paper prefers the up style, and it has Il
curiosity to know the reason for the down style.
outside of that which it has heard of it being
easier on the compostor and the writer to AVOID
capitals, and lets out of a hole those who do not
know how and when to capitalize.
In this connection we once heard Of a man who
directed his clerks never to dot an "i' or cross u
It" as he saved money on ink bills by such a
method. And that man is said to have a1nassed
a fortune, but whether by saving IN ink or not,
we do not know!

PIG N

A distinctly progressive step in the farm lite
from time to time of the boys and girls into clubs
of various kinds which have had to do with mat
tiers connected with the farm.
That the boys corn clubs and the girls canning
clubs are ~exerting a valuable influence on the
agricultural life Of North Carolina is evident to
those who will only look. The example set by
the younger people has had a most stimulating
effect on the older people and we may confidently
expect this to extend.
Another movement in the concerted club work
is now under way, this being in the organization
of pig raising clubs. If there is one thing in
which we need more effort in North Carolina it
is in the line Of raising meat, and the new clubs
for boys in pig raising will give an impetus to
this, just as the boys corn clubs have helped in
the raising of corn and the girls canning clubs
in relation to the raising of tomatoes.
In the Boys Pig Raising Clubs there is more
to be done than merely to raise pigs. The North
Carolina Agricultural Department, which has un-
dertaken to organize these clubs, plans to have
the boys in the clubs given instruction in feed
ing, raising, curing Of the meat, the growing of
the proper crops for the raising Of pigs, and the
marketing. The value of this new work is evi
dent and it is a forward step which deserves full
support. We commend it most heartily and trust
that the boys on the farms in North Carolina will
90 into the work with a vim. Pig and Progress
sounds good. Hog and Hominy likewise.

It has been feared that the passage OF a bl
