American youths do, without any help

THUS are modern parents handi-

affairs OF their children. They realize
with despair that they lave no juris-
diclion over the hearts OF their foolish
young ones, and So they stand helpless

who is dearer than life TO them, take
the fatal step that plunges him or her
into lifelong misery.
OF course not every i'll advised
match can be broken up, bul most OF
them can by the use OF a little iinesse
and diplomacy. The reason why pa
rents so seldom succeed IN this deli

Another fatal blunder that parents
make is in openly opposing a match
OF which they d%isapproye. Nothing fans
the flame OF love as does opposition
lust as nothing smotherS it out as does

man ever fell in love with the husband

they are in love with because their
family objects to him or her.

Title Bike Races TO SevUe
As Cocktail for 6-Day Mil
Five One-Mile Heats Under
Point System-Events
for Amateurs

The first real series Of worlds cycling
championships in five years will be de-
cided in Madison Square Garden next
Saturday night These international
events for the recognized worlds titles
are being put on as a sort of a cocktail
to the six day races which Will start
at midnight on Sunday.
The programme arranged for next
Saturday is one of the best ever offered
indoors in this country. The list OF
events includes ten-mile motor paced
race, in which the champions Of the
United States, France. italy and Aus
trala will ride behind splitting motors
that will be tuned up to circle the ten
lap saucer track under mile minute.
The big feature, however, is race
of five one-mile heats, under point
system, in which are entered Frank
Kramer. the worlds greatest sprlnter;
Bobby Spears, of Australia, who often
has taken the measure Of the Newark
hier: Francisco Verri, the best rider
ever sent here from Italy, and Marcel
Dupcy, the champion of France.
This race is to be a thorough test for
every entrant. Each man will ride in
four heats This is made possible by
different rider resting UP in each of the
first four heats and all five meeting in
the fifth or final heat at one mile. The
winner of each of the first four heats
will score five points, the second three,
and the third, one.
In the final heat the winner will be
credited with fifteen points, the second
man five and the third three. In this
way every rider will have chance to
display his real ability.
In the championship motor paced
race the entries are Oscar Egg, Swift
zerand; George Wiley, champion of
America; Vncenzo Madona, Italy's pre-
mier pace follower, and George Cory,
champion Of Australia.
The half-mile handicap for profess
sonals will bring out the best men in
the world, and the ten-mile open cham
pionship will see al the leading for
eigners in competition. The latter
event is going to be the first real test
in sprinting of the men who are to
compete in the six day race. For the
amateurs there will be half mile
handicap and a two-mile scratch race.
The six day race will see at least
seventeen well-matched teams. All the
leading sprinters of the world are in

Black Greeted as FeLZ07v
Yale Man by U-Bout Officer

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. %. y
mariner, ancient or otherwise, page
Cupid Black, one-time Yale football
star, that reports recently circulated
place in Germany through the machini-
nations of submarine commander
former Harvard opponent Of the FL
captain. Cupid was not captured by
any marine commander, according t
Guy Bancroft, former Harvard crew
captain, but did meet up with a sub
mersible chief who recognized him as
a fellow Yale man and therefore spared
his life.
The story has been circulated gener-
allv that when the President Lincoln
was torpedoed Black was taken aboard
the U-90 When an American destroyer
was seen approaching the commander
of the submarine was reported as shov-
ing Black below deck, fastening down
the matches and scocting off for Ger
many. The submarine leader recog
nzed Black, and said that he played on
a Harvard football team against the
Ellis when the New York roly poly was
at Yale.
Bancroft's version, however, is en-
tirely different. He says:
"a friend, Captain Leslie Clyde, a
Harvard graduate, was returning to
this country on the President Lincoln
last spring when it was torpedoed by
German submarine. "Cupid" Black
was an ensign on the President Lincoln.
1t seems that after the boat was tor
pedoed Cupid Black and Captain
Clyde found themselves with others in
the same lifeboat. The German sub
marine had stayed in the vicinity and
mannvred around among the different
lifeboats. When it came up to this
particular one German officer spoke
With Black, recoenizing, him as fcl-
low Yale man, although the German
black.
at seems that Captain Clyde had an
oar in the lifeboat, and in keeping the
boat oft the submarine his oar slipped
and hit one of the German sailors. The
sailor turned quickly on Clyde, drew
his gun and threatened to shoot The
German fficer yelled at the sailor in
German to the effect that if there was
to be any shooting around there he
would do it. Soon afterwarA the sub
marine disappeared and Clyde Black
and others were rescued by the y. S. S.
Warrenton.
"The story was told me by Captain
Clyde soon after he landed in this
country. and although | only made a
mental note of it at the time Ifeel sure
of the main facts, and have since con-
frmed them with Clyde's uncle"
Speak up, Cupid; you're among
friends!

Plan to Organize
Baseball League Abroad

LONDON, Nov 23-It is proposed
in various sporting centres in England
TO organize baseball league to be
operated throughout the coming spring
and summer The game has had mar
Vellous vogue since the arrival of Cana
dian troops here early in the war and
especially since the coming of the
Americans. The game is now played
by English teams in preference to
cricket. This is particularly true in
barracks where the British soldiers
nave been in constant contact with
their American fellows
1t is pointed out that there will be
many Canadian and American soldiers
in England during the coming spring
and summer, unable, for various rea-
sons, to return to their homes in Can
ada and the United States. 1t is felt
that the presence of these players will
give the game an additional flip here.
Baseball is bound to assume perma-
nent place on the calendar of British
sport.
