The Announcement that Maurice E.
Mclaughlin and Thomas C. Bundy
may enter the sporting goods business
has created a Juror in national lawn
tennis circles. 1t is presumed that
they expect to continue to play in ma p.
tional and sectional tournaments os in
the past. Under the rather lax meth
eds of the U. S. N. L. T. A. in vogue in
past years it is quite possible theor
amateur status would not be effected
since the east has a number of prom
trent players who have combined ten
his play and tennis business without
losing caste.
The fact that the National Associa
ton subscribed to the recent findings
of the I. C. A.AA.A. conference on
amateurism and will try to read more
stringent rules regarding it into the
constitution at the annual meeting
next month puts an entirely different
complexion on the affair Tennis
would receive a severe blow in the loss
Of Mclaughlin and Bundy but they
will not be without company if the ma
tional body adopts and enforces the
proposed rules.

the tables show that seven heavy

which the battles terminated in a

Interesting Sport Letter
Gathered From All Spheres

The proposed bout between Willard
and Frank Moran is of unusual inter
est in that it brings to bear upon the
heavyweight title several angles which
are unusual in ring contests wherein
this title has been involved. Under
teh laws of the state of New York the
boxers will meet in what is termed a
ten-round sparring exhibition without
decision and if both men are on their
feet at the expiration of thirty minutes
of boxing future ring records will car
~ the bout as a no-decision contest.
Consequently the only way in which
the heavyweight championship could
pass from Willard, the holder, to
Moran would be for the latter to knock
cut his opponent or win on foul so
deliberate there could be no ques-
ton as to it's intent. 1t can be seen
therefore that the chief interest in the
contest hinges on the probability of
either Willard or Moran knocking out
his opponent and thus demonstrating
decisive supremacy.
Since the days when heavyweights
first donned gloves and fought under
Queensberry rules the ring records
show that knockouts in bouts in which
champions have participated have av-
eraged we'll over ten rounds notwith-
standing that the list includes such
powerful mitters as Jeffries, Fitzsim-
mons, Sharkey, Johnson and Sullivan.

SEN. JOHNSON
IS MEMBER OF
AMERICAN FREE
TRADE LEAGUE

New York. August ga bald at
| tempt has been made to deceive the
voters of Maine as to the tariff views
and performances of Charles +. John
son, Democratic candidate for re-elec-
ton to the United States Senate" said
Ralph D. Cole. chairman Of the Speak
ers' Bureau Of the Republican National
Committee, in a statement issued to-
day. Senator Johnson has been rep
resented as endeavoring to do what
ever he can to help the industries Of
his state and further their interests.
LAS a matter of fact Senator John
son is a dyed-in- the wool free trader.
Far from helping Maine industries he
has done and doubtless will continue
to do everything to destroy them that
free trade legislation can do. He
worked and voted for the Underwood
tariff law, and If that is not sufficient
proof of where he stands we have the
further evidence that he is one Of the
vice presidents of the American Free
Trade League, and his name is signed
to an appeal to the citizens of the
United States to do their part in es
tablishing free trade in this country.
This appeal, which was issued by
George Haven Putnam, president Of
the Free Trade League, declares it's
purpose frankly in the following
words:
""The American Free trade League
proposes to do what may be prac-
ticable toward the creation of public
avN1
throughout the world, in support Of
the contention that protection is itself
a form of war and that free.
dom of trade constitutes an essential
factor towards securing and main
tanning the peace of the world. The
members of the League place this
ideal before their fellow citizens of the
Republic with the hope that the in
fiuence of the United States may be
utilized. in the settlement that is to
follow this war, towards breaking
down the protective barriers between
nations. The work of those who be-
iieve in the fullest possible inter-
change between peoples of the world,
not only of goods but of ideas and OF
human sympathy. constitutes the es-
sental foundation for the Worlds
Federation The American Free
Trade League appeals to the citizens
of the Republic to do their part IN
furthering this great work"
Republican campaigners", cont1n-
ued Mr.. Cole, will see to 1t that
Maine voters are fully acquainted with
Senator Johnson's free trade record.
He and his Democratic colleagues,
with President Wilson as their inspir-
ing example, may undertake to fool
the people, but they will not succeed.
Trusting Democrats to enact tariff
legislation that will help American in
dustries is too much like entrusting a
horse doctor with the administering OF
the Geodetic Survey and only Demo-
Gratis do that sort Of thing.
