HUNGARY ATHLETES
ARE MAKING GOOD
SAYS AMERICAN COACH

The rapid development of athletic
spirit and competition in continental
Europe under the stimulus Of the
Olympic games enthusiasm is well IL
lustrated by the remarkable changes
in the Hungary sport situation during
the past few years. Trainer AL Cope
land, the former record-holding Amer
lean athlete, who recently arrived at
Vienna to assume the position Of
Olympic trainer to the Austrian team,
stated just before his departure that
both Austria and Hungary were MAX
ing rapid strides In all forms of track
and field sports. 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 Workmen's Athletic
Club was started, and this year the
members of that organization won
nearly all the cross-country competi-
lions, and also the championship. In
the country districts also sport clubs
are being started by the unions for
working men athletes, and the great
masses, who formerly took scarcely
any interest in sport, are now becom-
ing keen followers of athletics.
The minister Of education has in
augurated a board for promoting sport
in general, and the craftsmanship OF
this board has been accepted by the
late minister for education and late
speaker of parliament. A portion OF
the income derived by the state from
the tax on horse race betting transact
tons is handed over to the board to
enable it to carry on its work, and It
now has at its disposal more than
800, 900, so that 1t will not be hamp-
cred for lack OF funds.

CARPENTER THROWS
UP AUSTRALIAN TRIP
TO MEET GUNB0A1

The plans of Georges Carpenter,
the French light-heayyweight, for a
tour of the world have been set back
as the result Of the match made with
Gunboat 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 clear
=ly the confidence of the French pugi-
list and his hackers. According to
preliminary negotiations between M.
Descamps. manager OF Carpenter, and
Snowey" Baker, the Australian fight
promoter, Carpenter was to have re-
ceiyed $4,000 and expenses for three
bouts in Australia, 1t was proposed
TO match him with Dave Smith, Eddie

Many calculations have been upset
in baseball since the season started.
The clubs that expected to get the
jump have fallen down and the sup
posed weak ones have come through

velopment from my point Of view But,

ITALIAN IMMIGRATION
NOT TO HALT COMMITTEE
No Way in Pending Bill to Favor
One Country as Against
Another.

Members Of the Senate immigration
committee are inclined to ignore intima-
tons that the italian government will not
sign new arbitration treaty with the
United States unless assured that the
section of the pending immigration bill
providing for United States health in
spectors on immigrant ships shall not
apply to Italian steamers, and that the
proposed literacy test shall not interfere
with Italian immigration. The committee
views similarly the assertion that Italy
will not participate in the Panama-Pacific
exposition if immigration legislation is
unsatisfactory.
Notlhcation reported to have been given
to the American ambassador by the Ital-
ian foreign office has not been brought
of1icially to the attention of the immigra-
tlon committee. and discussion was in
formal. The members of the committee
say. however. that they see no reason
will be pushed to final consideration
early next week and reported to the Sen
ate without changing the provisions for
a literacy test and for health inspectors.
Steamship Company influence.
Senators are inclined to attribute Ital-
ian opposition to the influence of steam
ship companies. They point out that
Italy is the only country that has re-
monstrated, though it would be no more
affected than other countries, and that no
country Is likely to be SO interested in
having its citizens leave as to oppose
restrictions on immigration by other coun-
tries. Steamship companies, they believe,
are interested for two reasons. Restric-
tons on immigration would cut down re-
ceipts. and the duties of the health in
spectors on immigration vessels would be
to observe and report violations by com
panies of1aws for the protection and care
OF immigrant passengers
Committee members believe that even If
they were disposed to favor Italy, there
is no way to frame a provision for a
literacy test so as to make an exception.
Of any country, and that they are not
disposed to let the attitude of one coun-
try change their position on the entire
question.
