Hewitt wasn't the only southpaw in
the game that was wild. BOardman had
HIS share OF trouble in finding the
plate, and tied with Hewitt in pass
giving. Boardman found himself in
trouble in nearly every inning, but his
ability to tighten up saved him.
The wildness of the pitchers slowed
up the game Jumps Davey was forced
to call the contest in the last of the
seventh on account of darkness, de-

.SWEDES Plan
DEVELOPMENT
OF TRAINING
Increased Popularity Of
Track and Field Athlet-
les Responsible
CIV Associated Press.l

New York, June ga broad develop
ment Of the present Olympic training
system now in vogue in Sweden is
planned for the coming summer.
During the past few years, Coacn
Ernie Hjertberg has carried most of
the work upon his own shoulders, but
as the popularity of track and held
athletics increased it was seen that the
task was rapidly outstripping the
capacity of the original coaching stan.
Until recently Hjertberg has had but
two assistants, and it was impossible
for them to cover Sweden thoroughly
and give the Swedes the benefit of
steady coaching all summer. HJert-
berg was compelled to travel from
place to place with the result that
many cities had to content themselves
with one or two weeks instruction dur
ing the whole season. and several
promising towns, for lack Of time, were
neglected altogether. In an effort to
remove this handicap the Swedish A.
A. U. made plans to install ten coaches.
with Hjertberg as instructor and
supervisor of their work.
These coaches, who were selected by
the S. A. A. u, are all men who have
had experience In athletics, However,
practical experience in athletics was
naturally not deemed sufficient In order
to qualify as a coach, and it was there
fore decided that they should receive
q special course of instruction. This
course covers all branches necessary
for the making OF successful coach,
and includes: Practical and theoretical
coaching, training, first aid to the in
jured and hygiene. benefits of light
gymnastic exercises, massage, how to
lay out athletic fields and tracks and
the care of same, and the organizing
of clubs.
This teaching of the men in the
organizing of clubs and the general
methods used for this purpose is done
with the thought that these coaches,
who are to serve as members of the
district organization In which they be-.
long, will be in a position to advise
and help in the formation Of new clubs
in their respective districts. When
these men have completed this course
and are deemed competent to handle
the work intended for them, they will
be sent to the different districts, and
each coach will have charge of the
athletes instruction in his district,
under the supervision Of Hjertberg.

"A. C. R.-HIGH COST OF RAIL.
ROADING,
Over One Hundred Thousand More Exc
pense to Handle Seventy nine
Thousand More Business.

Railways of the United States were
forced to spend over S104, 791 900 more
in operating expenses and taxes to
handle about $79,000,000 more traffic
during the first quarter OF 1917, in
comparison with the same three
months of 1916. Net operating income
remaining after taxes. in spite of the
continued additions to gross revenues.
as a result fell almost $26,000,000 un-
der a year ago. The figures apply to
the country's entire railway mileage
Of over 100000 miles and are based
on the Bureau OF Railway News &
Statistics, Chicago, on official figures
just compiled by the Interstate COM
merce commission for a partial mile
age Of 230,973 miles, including only
the so-caIled large roads.
How the rising tide Of operating
expenses, so long trailing behind the
rapid climb in gross revenues, has
overtaken and is engulfRg all inn
provement in railway earnings is
shown by the March figures. March
traffic, at 1928, 792 900. was $22,000,00
less than that hauled in October, 1915.
the largest in any month of railway
history. Yet expenses Of performing
this smaller March business COM
pletely outstripped those Of the great
est traffic month OF history, crossing
1888, 900 and exceeding by nearly
$50, 100000 the expenses OF October
1915, the highest point ever before
attained.
Herein are reflected the tremendous
burdens OF increased taxes, cost OF
materials and wages principally due
to the Adamson law) under which
United States railways are laboring
to cope with traffic and perform eff
ficiently an emergency service more
vital than ever to the nations well
fare. TO do 500 in gross business the
eastern railways in the first three
months of 1917 spent in expenses
1881 against s70.7S agar ago. while
southern roads paid $685. against
$65. 90 and western roads $70.21 against
$6s.44. 1t will thus be seen that the
effect OF rising costs Is most con-
spicuous in the east where trafic is
densest

an unexpected announcement that he
had subjugated all of the rebellious
elements that previously had been en-
countered in his perfection OF talking

the human voice.
Mr.. Edison's announcement was of
the bare fact that "all of the rebel
lious elements are under control" and
he refused subsequently to elaborate
upon the cryptic statement.
