Great Things Predicted
For Young Fancy Diver

waiting until the eleventh hour to an
nounce the change of plan.
The victories scored by Rud Goodwin
and Albert Downes, of the New York
Athletic Club, in the national outdoor
championships are worthy OF special
note because of the amazingly long
period of activity both men have en-
joyed in the field of competition. Good
win won his first swimming race elgh-
teen years ago, and he has held titles
continuously since 1901. DowneS start
ed even earlier. This is his twenty-hrst
year of participation in athletics, al
though, as a fancy diver, he did not
figure prominently until 1910. !
Many of the youngsters now bidding
for laurels in national contests were
not born when these two veterans
fought their first successful battles in
sport
The National Wonen's Lifesaving
League has set August % as the date
for its annual championship water car
nival at Sheepshead Bay.
The fve-mile marathon swim for the
George F. Pawling trophy will this year

For some reason or other handicap
matches at billiards have not been
popular in this country, although for
many years they have attracted the
leading British players. There are few
other branches of sport in which handi-

equalization in skill. The end aimed
at is close competition, and when this

officials of the Brunswick Bake

A special club medal has been de-
signed for the Asbury Park Kennel
Club, and is considered one of the
handsomest ever offered at any show.
The design shows a mermaid arising
from the sea, holding an emblem or a
bulldog head. One Of these medals will
be offered for the best in each breed
at the show on September 22 and %. A
very handsome gold plated stickpin will
be offered in all breeds for the best
novice dog or bitch and the best in the
limit classes. The list of judges num-
bers twenty-five and includes several
well known breeders who will make
their debut in the ermine.

Save the Trees.

The National Highway Protective as
sociation reports that two states have
adopted It's legislation TO mitigate the
evil OF defacing trees. fences and
buildings alcug public highways with
advertisements. The states that have
shown this wisdom are Rhode Island
and New York. The measure is not
drastic. II merely requires that no
advertisements can be placed on trees,
fences or buildings fanking highways
without the written consent of the
owner. A moderate penalty Is i'm.
posed for violation. II is not to be
hoped that this will wholly prevent the
evil, but II will exercise a wholesome
check on its prevalence. Other states
might we'll follow the example. and
even more drastic legislation would
be In order.
