State College Complains

William p. Winter, professor of
chemistry at State College, and other
residents in or about that place, call
the attention of the Public Service
Commission to what is termed de-
plorable state of affairs existing at
State College, because of disagree
ment between the borough council and
the State College Water Company over
the sale or renewal of the franchise.
Many of the patrons of the water COM
pany were entirely without water dur
ing the day for the past four weeks,
and there would be an inadequate sup.
ply in the event of fire. The health
of the community is jeopardized by
an unsanitary reservoir, and by reason
of defects in the construction of this
reservoir, water is going TO waste.

ATHLETICS TAKING
 HOLD IN EUROPE Olympic Games Stirring Up Enthusiasm of COnti-
 mental Europe

New York, May 3.-The rapid develop ment of athletic spirit and competition in continental Europe under the stimulus of the Olympic games enthusiasm is well H. lustrated by the remarkable changes in the Hungary sport situation during the past few years. Trainer Al Copeland, the former record holding American athlete. who recently arrived at Vienna to assume the position of Olypmic trainer to the Austrian team, stated just before his de- parture that both Austria and Hungary were making rapid strides in all forms of track and field athletics. His assertions are borne out by recent reports on this subject
 There is no doubt that love of athletics is rapidly spreading among the working class members of the population It is only about five years ago since the Workmens Athletic club was started and this year the members of that organiza- tion won nearly all the cross country competitions. and also the championship. In the country districts also sports clubs are being started by the unions for work ing men athletes, and the great masses, who formerly took scarcely any interest in sport, are now becoming keen followers of athletics
 The minister of education has inaugu- rated board for promoting sport in gen. eral and chairmanship of this board has been accepted by the late minister for education and the late speaker of Parlia- ment. A portion of the income derived by the state from the tax on horserace bet ting transactions is handed over to the board to enable 1t to carry on it's work, and it now has at it's disposal more than s100,O0O, so that 1t will not be hampered for lack of funds.

CARPENTER PUTS
 OFF WORLD TOUR Frenchman to Fight Gun boat Smith at London
 in June

1 New York, May 3.-The plans of Georges Carpenter the French light-heavyweight
 for a tour of the world have been set back boat Smith This bout is to be held in London late in June and the fact that the match was made after Carpenter was in receipt of excellent offers For such a tour indicates clearly the confidence of the French pugilist and his packers. Accord ing to preliminary negotiations between M. Descamps, manager of Carpenter, and "Snowey' Baker, the Australian fight promoter, Carpenter was to have received S5O,OO0 and expenses for three bouts in Australia. It was proposed to match him with Dave Smith. Eddie McGoorty and third opponent with an interval of several weeks between bouts. Carpentier was ex- peeted to return to France via America meeting several boxers of prominence while in the United States.
 ms campaign, which would have netted the French boxer many thousands of dollars, was the principal reason for his exemption for another year from French army service. If he should succeed in de- feating Smith. his ability as a drawing card will be greatly increased, but should Carpenter be counted out there will be little demand for his services in either Australia or the United States so far as championship bouts are concerned. That Carpenter and his packers have every con- fidence in his ability to defeat Smith is shown by this change in the Frenchmans s campaign, notwithstanding that Smith is generally considered the equal of Joe Jeanette, who won a recent decision from Carpenter after 20 rounds of fast boxing.

BRITISH GOLFERS
 ARE BEING SOUGHT

New York, May 3.--It is understood that some quiet missionary work is be- ing done in England by the American golfers who are gathering in Sandwich for the English amateur championship tournament. The object is to secure a representative English entry in the United States amateur tournament to be held over the Ekwanok Country club course the first week in September It is believed that in view of the fact that fully dozen of the leading play CTS of the states made the journey to England 1t Is not unreasonable to ex- pect the entry of at least three or four of the leading British amateurs, includ ing Harold H. Hilton.
 Special efforts are being made to this end since 1t appears likely that the English professionals will pass up the United States open at the Midloth : ian course because of the early date selected for the tournament and the fact that what the English term 'very trying weather" may be expected in the middle west during the latter part of August.

 Under the leadership of John Dobbs, who managed the Montgomery team in the association last season, New Orleans has shown good form in practically all the games played. Good pitching and op- perfume batting have been displayed. and the team gives promise of even more power in it's attack as the season ad- vances.
 Chattanooga, now led by Harry McCor- mick, the former famous pinch hitter of the New York National League club, has shown a powerful attack in the majority of the games it has played. Many fol- lowers of Southern association baseball believe it will be contender for the pennant throughout the season The Lookouts now have won Il and lost 6 games.

 The Atlanta club occupied third place at the close of the weeks play. Injuries have affected the Crackers playing strength, and the team has played in- consistent baseball. William Smith, the manager, expects the club to show im- proved form in the present weeks play with the return to the lineup of some of the injured players.
 Mobile and Nashville were tied for fourth place. The former had won eight and lost eight games, while Nashville
 had won nine and lost nine. Birming-

 Cub Pitchers Weak
 Playing at home early in the week the Cincinnatis took four straight from St. Louis. Moving to PiAtsburg they met stronger opposition, however. and closed the week with a pair of defeats. With al, the pitchers, particularly Benton, are displaying better forn;. Somewhat diff ferent is the case with the Cubs, from whom the Pirates took three straight and who lost two out of three to St. Louis. Cheney seems to be the only reliable boxman, the teams batting has been weak and it's fielding about the poorest in the league
 The St. Louis Cardinals have been doing just about what most experts expected of them. They fell before the superior at tack of the Reds, but outpayed Chi cago in two of the three games which closed their week. Robinson. the ex- Pittsburgher. appears to be their most reliable boxman, but Doak is showing indications of marked ability. Despite reverses they have keot well ahead of the Bostons whose lacr of winning abil- ity so far is one of the baseball pug zles of the year.
 For another week west will continue to meet west and east continue to strug- gle with east in bosh leagues. Early next week, however. lnt NdliolldiS Sctnf of battle will be shifted to the west and the western clubs in the American will travel east. This last shift will supply the test as to whethtr the eastern end of the circuit is really SO much stronger than the western, as sone observers have figured Admirers % l.le Detroits feel that the Tigers, with what some con slider the best infield they ever have had and an improved r..ching staff, will ,1nf +l,a a1,-lre they have been for several years past to most of the eastern clubs.
 Sox in Slump
 St. Louis. too with its fine aggrega- ton of boxmen, appears stronger than usual and up to this week the White Sox were supposed to be more formid- able than before. Something seems to have gone wrong with the Callahans however. The pitching has continued good for the most part. but the team has been woefully weak with the stick. Cleve- land, too, after a bad start, Is doing much better and the return of Gregg to sue cessful occupancy of the box in his turn cannot but help Birmngham's men not ably.
 Features of the playing week were two triple plays, one mads by Washington, which more than effectualy broke up the 1thletics' speciality performance. the double squeeze play, and the other by the Cubs against the Cardinals.
 Western clubs up to date have had a little the better of the first inter- sectional clash in the Federal league, but the leaders-St. Louis and Balti- more-held their positions, first and second respectively Rain and bad weather played havoc with schedules and attendance.
