AUTO RACING
=. TO STOP NOW
Controlling Body Opposed
to Issuing Sanctions for
Race Meets During War

Chicago, May 24.-Automobile rae
ing probably will have a brief and not
altogether glorious career in the
United States this season. .
The American Automobile aasocia-
ton, controlling body in racing at
fairs, Is considering putting q ban on
the issuance Of sanctions for races
o the duration of the war, and It is
likely that this course Of action will
be adopted.
This will limit tho seasons racing
to the affair held two weeks ago at
Uniontown. Pa. the Memorial day
ace at Cincinnati and the June ls
affair at Speedway park. .
Az sanctions for the latter two
events have already been Issued and
the promoters allowed to incur con-
siderable expense. Il is not deemed
probable that any steps will be taken
to call off the events.
It IL understood that this action by
the A. A. A.. Is in accordance with a
suggestion made by the war depart
ment. Virtually all the leading driv-
ers and mechanicians of the speedway
circuit are enrolled in one or the 9TH
or branches Of the army and SO are
liable to q call to the colors at almost
any time.
Most Of the leading drivers are en-
rolled in the aviation service and
many others will be needed for their
expert engineering ability in the vari-
out divisions Of the army in which
he gasoline motors are required.

2 Drops, and the Corn is a "Goner::"
When you've got to walk on the
sides Of your shoe to get away from
those awful corn-pains, there's only
one common-sense thing to do. Put
. o. 3 drops of "Gets-It' on the corn
right away. Pain and Inflammation
will disappear, the corn will begin to
sRrivel from that instant-then It
loosens and falls right off.
There's no other corn-remover in
the world that acts like "Gets-1t." No
new discovery has been made in corn
removers since "Gets-1t' was born.
Don't forget that fact. "Gets-It" does
away forever with the use of salves
that irritate, %bandages that make a
bundle OF our toe. plasters that half
do the work, knives and scissors that
draw blood. Use 'Gets-It"-no more

Earl Caddock Showing His Scissors
Hold (abOve) and Wrestling Pose.

Earl Caddock Showing His Scissors
Hold (above) and Wrestling Pose.
II Earl Caddock. Of Anita. Ia, is
able to defeat Ed (Strangler) Lewis.
he will be voted the worlds wrectling
champ.
Caddock's defeat of Joe Stecher,
for some while the hero Of the mat,
has brought him into prominence and
real ~contenders for the title. Lewis's
defeat Of John Olin has put him near
the top of the bunch and a match
between Caddock and Lewis is
urged by many who believe that 1t
should settle the title question, which
has been a problem Of the mat game
since Frank Gotch retired unde-
feated.
Should Lewis and caddock meet,
the latter will be at a great disad-
vantage in the matter of weight.
Lewis weighs between 224 and $50
pounds while Caddock after many ef-
forts to build himself up has eve
managed to make more than $50
pr unds. Stecher in his best form has
always weighed eos pounds or there
bouts.
Though Stecher has slipped some
from the high place he held in wrest-
ii" not a year or so g he is still
worthy Of consideration among the
games leading stars on the strength
OF his past performances. Whether he
will be able to produce any sort Of a
comeback Is to be seen. It is clear
that he is not the hero he was when
he went for quite a while undefeated.
Both Stecher and Lewis have had
great popularity with wrestling fans,
mostly because of their clean sports
manliEe methods and the fact that
never has fraud Of any sort. too pre-
valent in the mat pastime, attached
to them. Caddock. who was formerly
the amateur champion, comes for
ward with a clean record and these
three are at present the best perform
crs in the game in every way.
The winner Of a Lewis Caddock
match would have every claim on the
wrestling title although Joe stecher
may yet have to be considered. Cad
dock has a clean-cut victory over
Stecher while Lewis won from Olin
who had a referees decision over
SteCher.

Chicago. May 24.--The surprising
class Of the Cubs, a feature Of the Ma
tional league race to date. may be
largely ascribed to Fred Mitchell's
skill as pilot. but there have been a
few other things to help. The Cubs
have been fortunate in several ways.
Rollie Zeider's amazing comeback
has been q big item in h Cubs fast
play and few supposed when the sea-
as he has. His fielding has been
more than merely fawless and his
batting has improved with each week.
On the bases he is regarded as the
Ty Cobb Of the National league. At
present he 10 the most valuable man
in the lineup.
Vic Saiers injury at the first Of
the a made things look blue for
the Cubs till Fred Merkle was bought
from Brooklyn to NIL the gap. Merkle
had been Of little use to the Robins.
but just now he looks like q million
dollars to the Cubs. He has been
playing in his best form at frat and
has strengthened the team q great
deal.
Leslie Mann and Cy Williams have
been working for Mitchell much bet
ter than they did for Joe Tinker. very
largely because Mitchell knows how
to get the most out Of every man.
Both Of them have been hitting most
opportunity. which is nor than they
did last season. -, :
There is apparent in the work Of
all Of the Cub players asgreat desire
to please their new boss. Mitchells
gift as q manager seems to be his
ability to keep all Of the mon going
at their top stride. He has been for
tunate in a few respects, but the Cubs
surprising speed may be accounted
for mostly by tho talents Of Boss
Mitchell. When the season began tho
Cubs seemed nigh hopeless at first d.
vision prospects and now they may be
seriously considered as pennant con.
tenders.
