Among economic questions
brought to the fore as a result OF
the present world conditions is that
of fuel. Sweden's fuel supply is
insufficient, hence the import OF
coal and oil is considered, amount
ing to more than 100, 900, 900
crowns (S26, S00,O00) annually.
The annual consumption of coal
amounts to 4 100000 tons, of which
Sweden produces less than 10 per
cent. and this ratio can not be IN
creased enough to have any percep-
tibIe effect on the import as a
whole.

Why Should Rooters Expect Reward for
 Returning Baseballs?

The Boston American league man Aeement has announced that fans who recover balls batted into the stands will be rewarded with a ticket good for the next game upon the return of the sphere. In Chicago the owner of the Cubs has decided to allow fans who recover such balls to keep them as souvenirs
 Just why any arrangement of eith- CT kind should be necessary is hard to explain. Why should fan need a reYard for common honesty? Why should al spectator at ball game get a souvenir costing twice as much as a ticket of admission? writes Ralph S.. Davis in the Pittsburgh Press
 A baseball is just as much the prop erty of ball club as are the players uniforms, or the base bags. Would a fan be Justified in hopping out of the stand after a game, cutting loose a base bag from it's moorings and toting it home as a souvenir?
 If the fans demand $1.25 souvenirs for spending anywhere from 25 cents to 31. then the club owners would bet tor shut up the ball park and save what coin they have earned

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1887 = Ray Bronson, lightweight and welterweight boxer, born in Web ster City, Ia., For a decade Bronson was prominent boy in the light weight ranks, and later did fairly we'll as a welter, although handicap ped by his brevity of stature, as he stood only 5 feet inches. The Hawk eye State youngster began battling professi sionally when he was only IT years old, and by 1909 he was making quite a splash in the pugilistic pond. In that annum he defeated Jack Dil- Ion, now famed as wrecker of heavy weight regulations, and fought 20 round draws with Packey Mcfarland and Matty Baldwin, but was knocked out by Freddie Welsh. The follow ing year Bronson fought Dillon again and held him to draw at Anderson, Ind, besides defeating Jack Britton at New Orleans. Late in 1910 Bron- son made his first visit to Australia, where he lost to Hughie Mehegan. Ray continued to mingle with the top notchers year or two longer, but in 1913 he began to slip, and after that was defeated by several second-raters.

JOHNSTON DEFEATS
 ARMSTRONG TO GET LONGWO0D TROPHY

Boston. Aug. 2.-Playing the fiery game that is nine-tenths of his win ming tennis, William M Johnston of San Francisco: the national champion, defeated Joseph J. Armstrong of Phil adelphia yesterday at the Longwood Cricket club for the Longwood Chal- lenge Bowl. GO, 6-3, &S, 6-2. It was the conquest of rounded game off the ground as we'll as overhead against a player with but two effec- tive strokes. The moral effect of win ming the first set is Il minutes plainly had it's effect on Armstrong.
 By his victory Johnston gained leg on .he trophy, as last years winner. M. E. Mclaughlin of San Francisco, will not defend. Johnston's fiery att tack overwhelmed Armstrong in the first two sets. Both at the net and in the back court the champion was in vincible when going at top speed, but in the third set he tired rapidly as a result of losing seven and a half pounds in his match against W. M. Washburn under Mondays broiling sun. In this set he made little effort to get the deep drives which Arm strong placed in the far corners.
