Lafayette, @; Summer, l.
Lafayette won it's first game in the
Playground League on its home
grounds yesterday afternoon, defeat
ing the Summer team by a score of s
to l. The Lafayette victory was due
to the mastery pitching of Mullaney.
He allowed the Summer team but one
hit. He was backed up in faultless
fashion by his teammates. Espasito,
the Summer pitcher, was also in fine
form. He allowed only four hits, but
suffered from poor support 1t was
Espasito who secured the lone hit
and run on Mullaney.
A big crowd of fans witnessed the
game. Commissioner Bernard j.
Owens tossed the first ball over the
plate. Commissioner Mccall was also
spectator at the game. The score:

Cesar Moretti will make his second
start in America tonight and the big
Italian star is feeling at to do him.
self full justice. He has trained
faithfully for this match with Grenda
and expects to come through a win
ner, which viii mean that his next
opponent will be Frank Kramer. Mo
retti showed how serious he is by
training between showers yesterday
when no other rider could be found
at the Velodrome.
If Moretti is up 10 his European
form he should defeat Grenda, for
his jump is good enough to carry
him around the Tasmanian at any
time. Grenda is not blessed with a
jump, and this one thing keeps him
from being a high-class French style
rider. If Moretti rides Grenda as he
did Fogler he is liable to be beaten.
In that match Moretti waited until
the final eighth pole before getting
under way, and such race will
never win from Grenda. The man
from the South Seas will be on his
way long before the bell, and Moretti
will have to beat him to the sprint
to win unless the Italian is greatly
improved over his form of last Sat
urday.
This match means a whole lot to
Moretti. His Italian countrymen
have gone mad over him, and they
want to see him win tonight and then
do battle with Kramer, and they pos
itively believe that he has a chance
in match with the Yankee marvel.

Amateurs May Change Places.

The amateur title race carded for
tonight may make some change in
the standing Of the three leaders IN
the race for the championship, but
the race is so close il seems almost
impossible for any one of the three
leaders, Harry Kaiser. Willie Hanley
and Donald McDougall, to get a lead
that viii make this race decisive in
the tituar struggle. 1t is almost a
certainty that the final race of the
series, the five-mile championship.
will decide the contest. It has been
wonderful contest for the amateur
crown this season and the closest in
the history of the amateur Champion
ship of America. II Kaiser wins to-
night he will stand the best chance
of being the next champion and the
same can be said of Hanley. Nc
Dougall is three points behind Kaiser.
which makes his chances none too
bright, but a victory tonight for the
present title holder would make a
complete change in the situation.

or pleasing a customer. And almost
every merchant who did place an ad-
vertisement in the regimental program
did believe that, the bulk of the money
was for the athletic organization.
There is nothing more certain than
that not one merchant was fooled into
thinking he was getting guild por qou
lin advertising, but some of them
were fooled as to where the money
was going, r
Army Officers chasrined.
The officers did not know either that
the merchants were still very sensi-
tive to charges that had been made
some months ago to the effect that
they were "gouging'' their customers
and considered the army their legiti-
mate prey. and than an official look
ing letter from an army post under
the circumstances would have more
than usual weight. Nor did they know
that Mr.. Maggard appreciated all these
things, and verbally used them with
telling effect
But all this is Just the plain truth
Of the matter, and its realization has
caused the most extreme modification
to every officer and man in the I'd
Infantry. Because they do realize 1t
now, and are making most extraordi-
nary efforts to square themselves.
While of course it isn't so. they persist
in the belief that their honor has been
ttoUched-tO the great embarrassment
of the merchant community.
And the business men are embar-
rassed because they did not appreciate
| the trap into which the army men
had been BETRAYED. Especially is it
embarrassing since. as is now most
apparent they had at their instant
command, the means by which a per-
1ect understa nding would have been
arrived at in very short order That
medium was the vigilance commit
tee which thew all ignored
AS they see it now, here's the way
this matter should have been handled.
In each instance where Mr. Maggard
made his solicitation, he should have
been asked to call again after he hal
secured the endorsement of the ioint
advertising committee The solicitor
would have been obliged to lay his
plan before the members of this com
}rittee. The committee would have
determined very quickly, first, that on
the face Of it. from an advertisement
standpoint, there was little in the
proposition of merit. Second the com
mittee. acting for the entire business
community. it would have been its
duty to get in personal touch with
the army people. and in a friendly
spirit. to have gone into the merits Of
the proposition carefully That would
have ended it and Mr.. Maggard prob,
ably would have sought new pastures.
