n HE scenes herewith are some OF
the most striking stage pictures
in the presentation OF the Greek
play OF Euripides. THE Tro-
jan Women" acted by the Granville
Barker players at the dedication Of
the Lewiston stadium at the College
Of the City of New York. The play,
which was first produced In AIS b. c.,
is based upon the scenes Immediately
following the fall Of Troy after its
long siege by the Greeks under Aga
memnon. The action takes place out
side the walls Of Troy while the cap
tured Trojan women are being par
celled out among the victorious Greek
leaders. For his setting the stately
architecture Of the new stadium
formed an ideal background.
The principal female parts were
played by Edith Wynne Matthison as
Andromache, Lillah Mccarthy as Hec-
ubd. Gladys Hanson as Helen and
Chrystal Herne as C%dssandrd. the
seeress. '.
In costuming as we'll as in the char
acter Of talent in the cast and the
noble picturesqueness OF the setting
the production was pronounced by the
critics to be the most ambitious at
tempt to present the dramatic work Of
the ancient Greeks ever made in New
York o..
Greek tragedy heretofore has been
considered the proper meter OF the
ambitious mummers Of the senior class
in college. Granville Barker has set
about carrying it to the masses by
the organization Of a company Of well
known performers who are now tour
ing the Eastern States. {
The play chosen for the opening Of
the New York stadium was p%articu-
larly applicable to this year Of world
war. Originally written as the protest
OF Euripides against the wal party of
Athens, 1t attempts to portray in the
most vivid possible the hor-
rors M cruelty Of war. How well the
Greek playwright succeeded may be
judged by those fortunate enough to
have seen the Barker performance.
Four lines Of the play, the apos-
trophe Of hatred Of the sea god Posei-
don against the destruction bearing
Greeks, have a present day ring. The
god mourns over Troy as he might
over the stricken cities Of Europe:
How are we blind,
Ye treaders down OF cities, we that cast
Temples to destruction and lay waste
Tombs, the u~ntrodden s~anctuaries where

NO STAB AT THE
JUDGES OF RELAYS
Romeyn Berry Explains Change
in the Rules Governing Fin
iSheS at Track Meets.

G, Herbert Daley, Sporting Editor,
New York Tribune:
fear very much that what was said
IN this mornings Tribune relative to
tho finish of the two-mile relay race
at Philadelphia on Saturday will.
unless a correction is made, produce
unjust criticism Of the decision Of the
judges.
As your splendid picture shows and
as 1t appeared to every observer on
the line Of the finish, Campbell. of Chi
cago, completely crossed the line"
before Mackenzie. MackenzIes dive,
however, brought his shoulders and
chest TO the finish first.
Under the rule of the I. c. A. A. A.
A., which you quote, the decision on
the above state of facts should have
been given to Campbell But the rule
since February, 1913. The rule now in
force, and which has been in force
since the above date, Is as follows:
Finish: The finish line shall be a
line on the ground across the track
from finish post to finish post, and tho
men shall be placed in the order in
which any part of their bodies chat
is, torso, as distinguished from head,
legs, feet, arms or hands, either
touches or crosses such line. For the
purpose of aiding the judges, but not
as the finish line, thread shall be
stretched across the track at the finish,
four feet above the ground; it shall
not be held by the judges, but fastened
70 the finish posts on either side so
that i may always be at right angles
to tho course and parallel to the
ground: this thread should be breast
ed" by the competitor or competitors
in finishing and not seized with the
hands"
Under this rule. assuming that Mac
kcnzie's torso first touched the mag
mary finish line, the decision of the
judges was nquestiOnably correct.
Almost an identical state of facts
existed in the case of the two-mile
race in the dual meet between Cornell
and Pennsylvania at Franklin Field in
May, 1913. In a close finish Speiden
dived under the worsted and McCurdy
plunged over it. Speiden "died' on the
line itself. He never did get his legs
over. But the race was given to him
on the application of the above rule
to tho facts.
/ fear unless your comment on the
picture is qualified and a further ex-
PLANTATION given what appears 20 be a
perfectly correct decision of the judges
may cause misunderstanding and dis
satisfaction in Chicago, where they are
accustomed to a rule different from
that under which the meeting in ques-
ton was held. Yours very truly,
ROMEYN BERRY.

games without a defeat, sustained his

ended in his downfall.

ENGLISH SOCCER LOSSES
Blackburn Rovers Among
Clubs Hardest Hit This Year.

London, April 26.-Blackburn Rovers,
Of the first division Of the Association
League, completed their schedule OF
games last Saturday, finishing third in
the table. Owing to the big falling OIL
in tho attendance this season, their
gate receipts have dropped $4,000,
which, together with the sum Of $6,2S5,
being season tickets not taken up,
brings their decrease Of revenue to
S46,885 behind last season.
The two highest gates last season
were with Burnley, $S,425, and Man
chester United, $685. Those games
this season realized s2,97O and sl,l90
respectively. This famous club caused
a big sensation last season by purchas-
ing five forwards, who are still with
the club, for the record amount Of
$4,000.
