SCOTT SMASHES
 RECORD Al MEET Aggies' Entrant in Big Meet Sets New Conference
 Record

Chicago, June 3.-Two worlds records were equalled, four old "big nine' marks were beaten, and one eastern intercol- legiate record was tied at the conference track meet here today, which was won by Wisconsin with 49 points. Don Scott Mississippi A. and Ms sole entrant, smashed the conference record and tied the eastern intercollegiate record in the half-mile sprint, which he won in 1.53 1-5
 Illinois won second place with S5s4 ; Chicago third, with 2Oa4, and Missouri fourth, with 2o4. Other colleges finished as follows:
 California F, Perdue F. Mississippi A. and M. 5, Kansas Az, Notre Dame 4, Minnesota 3a4, oberlin 3, Northwestern ?, Indiana 2, Ohio 1, Ames l.
 The disqualification of the California star Liversedge spoiled a new record in the shot put; which he did at 47 feet 5 inches. Liversedge and his teammate, Nichols, it was announced, were found to have competed for an athletic club
 Bob Simpson,, the Missouri hurdler, won the 120-yard high hurdles in his own worlds record time of 14 3-5 seconds, and broke the conference record by doing the low hurles in 2S 4-5

TERRIFIC FINISH.
 DEFEATS ROAMER Ed Crump, Owned by Mem phis Man, Wins First
 Money in Big Race

Louisville, Ky, June 3.-Ed Crump, a four-year-old, Peep O'Day, Evaline colt, owned by John w. Schorr of Memphis, Tenn, overcame Andrew Miller's Roamer, American champion of 1913-14 and favorite in the betting, and in a terrific stretch drive won the fourth annual running of the Kentucky handicap at Douglas park today by half length. Roamer, shipped here from New York for the race, found his impost of 132 pounds too much w. J. Young's filly, Water Witch, lasted well in the stretch and was third, length back of Roamer and an equal distance in front of w. J. Weber's Hodge The time for the mile and quarter was 2:04 3-5. Ed Crump, coupled with Dick Williams as the Schorr entry, was third choice in the pari-mutuel wagering at odds of slightly better than 5 to 1.
 At the rise of the barrier the Il starters were away we'll punched and in this order passed the grandstand first time around the course. At the quarter Marion Goosby held a slight lead, but lost it to Harry Payne Whitney's Borrow, last years handicap winner, while rounding into the back stretch. Borrow was unable to en- dure the strain of pace-making and stopped to nothing. Roamer had been running well up to this stage and sprint ed into the lead, to hold well into the stretch, where he gradually succumbed to the winner. Jockey Guy Garner on Ed Crump rode a well timed race.
 Jefferson Livingston's English bred Royal II, and Dick Williams always were well up, but never could get to the flying leaders, Water Blossom, Hank ODay, Marion Goosby, Brook and Old Koenig finished in the order named and were

 AND ABROAD EASILY Barons Play We'll at Home But Make Poor Showing on the Road-Chicks
 Work Into Fifth Place by Se-
 ries of Home Victories
 

Uneasy under the kind of baseball which made the first six weeks of the league race resemble more and more runaway for New Orleans, the teams of the South ern association exhibited a reversal of form this week that not only robbed the Pelicans of the leadership, but took from them the title of road champions as well.
 The Nashville Volunteers, who usurped first place yesterday by decisively de- feating New Orleans, also found them selves the fastest team on the circuit away from home, at least for the games played thus far this season.
 While New Orleans still clings to second place in the number of games won on the road with nine victories against ten defeats, and percentage of .474, Chat tanooga is pressing the Pels closely for this position with 12 won and 15 lost. get ting mark of .444.
 New Orleans, however, with 20 games won and six lost, leads on home grounds. and if the call for help in the form of pitchers which has gone up from the Pel camp since the slump began this week brings results, Manager Dobbs asserts he will hold fast to this distinction. To do this, New Orleans must take the two re- maining games with the sprinting Volun- teers, who are close on his heels with 15 won and five lost at home.
 The rejuvenated Memphis Chicka saws. with record of seven straights since last Saturday, nosed into fifth place with the At Homes' during the weeks upheaval. The standing of the games at home and abroad. including yesterday, are as fol-

Lananese Troons :- China

The Worlds Work for June.
 little more than year ago 500 or 600 Japanese troops under orders from their government proceeded by rail de- spite the protests of the Chinese au- thorities to the city of. Tsinanfu, strategic central point on the north and south railroad that connects the capital, Peking, and the principal ship ping port. Shanghai Japanese troops (about 500) were already established in barracks at Hankow. in the heart of China. This latter contingent had con tiol of the other of the two railroads that connect Peking with the Yangtze river. And Japanese troops still occupy these two cities. It is. geograph icaiiy. as If St. Louis and Chicago were oc- cuDied by foreign soldiers.
 In Wuchang. across the river from Hankow. and in and around Tsinanfu, large permanent Chinese armies have been maintained. At times there have been hundred thousand Chinese sol dfers at Wuchang and probably 10000 near Tsinanfu. Yet the Chinese govern ment restraints its troops, petitions the Japanese in vain to withdraw, and has sought to persuade Great Britain and America to induce the Japanese to de- part

Alaska, New Vacation Land athlhen Hills in Ieslie,s

NdtLieeH I1lllS, III ISSllG 5.
 Travellers are always looking for some thing new and novel. They will find it in Alaska. The European war has fo- cussed attention on Alaska as one of the most delightful places for a summer journey. Last season all tourist records were broken and with a wider knowledge of the attractions of Alaska, thousands more are proposing to take the trip this year.
 Numerous coastwise trips to our north west territory from Seattle, Victoria and Vancouver give one an excellent idea of the vast Alaskan peninsula, but to thor ough,y know the territory one should take longer trip into the interior, down the nightly Yukon to Nome, returning by the open sea route. Coastwse tours range from 9-day trips at s6o, stopping at the principal points as far north as Juneau and Skagway, to 1S-day tours at $1OO, extending over 800 miles farther on to Kodiak and Knik, calling at such characteristic Alaskan places as Yaku- tat, Katalla, Cordovo, Valdez, Seward and Seldova.
 No tour in the world surpasses an Alaskan trip in majestic scenery and unique interest. There are great inland waterways, hundreds of mountains, 'snow-capped and flanked with glaciers, beautiful waterfalls, old Indian villages, distinguished by their odd totem poles, rich in mythology and ancient folklore; cities that grew in day and whose his tories are romances; gold mines that gave Alaska it's first interest to the white man and lured adventurous dream CTS by thousands; the midnight sun, and above all, magnificent distances-days and days and hundreds of miles between points, Nowhere in the world can one crowd so much into such a short space of time and reap such interest on his investment.
