ATHLETICS STILL
HOLD INTEREST AT
EASTERN SCHOOLS

New York, May 21.-That ath-
letics continue to hold interest at
the eastern colleges is amply dem
Onstrated by the remarkable entry
list received for the 42d annual
championship track and field games
OF the Intercollegiate Amateur
Athletic association.
Seventeen Of the IS institutions
holding membership in the orgaui-
zatiOn had entered teams at the
time of the formal closing and this
number is likely to be augmented
by several more at the special
meeting to be held in Philadelphia
on May 81. the opening aay OF the
games.
Il the majority of the delegates
present vote in foyoT Of permitting
what would virtually be post-eu-
tries. Harvard and University OF
Pittsburgh athletes will surely be
among the starters later in the
day, with a possibility Of repre-
sentation from one. or two more
colleges.

GOLF STARS TO

Chicago, May 21.-Jerome D.

pion in 1907, 1908. 1912 and 1913,

runner-up for the national title in

rem X. Wood OF F'lossmOor in a
four ball match for the Red Cross
at the Ravisloe Country club on
June s.
President Charles F Thompson
OF the Western Golf association,
who is in charge of the Red Cross
exhibitions of that organization, re-
ceived word yesterday from eastern
players they would appear. and
there is no doubt a match Of this
caIibre will draw a record crowd.
Chick VS.. Jerry.
The merits Of Chick and Jerry
have been the subject Of much dis
cussiOn, and it viii be recalled that
the last appearance OF TrayeTs here
was in the final for the amateur
championship at the Chicago Golf
club in 1912, when the Upper Mont
clair player won by comfortable
margin.
The Ravisloe club gave the golf
ing public a treat when it staged
the match between Harry Vardon
and Edward Ray and Chick Evans
and Warren Wood in 1913, In view
of the sectional rivalry, the coming
match should prove equally attrac-
tive. The course is harder than
when the famous Euglishmen were
here and affords a fine test OF golf.

SpOrtitOriQIS
BY '@TCFFY."

When Mike McNulty got wind of
the defy hurled at him by Peanuts
Schieberl and Mike Dundee. McNul-
ty said: Dundee might beat Roy
running, for it seems Mike can
sprint, but as a fighter he is a punk
Roy doesn't claim to be a runner !;
he's a fighter"
SO much for Mike.
Peanuts Schieberl, hearing of Nc
Nultys statement, said: Roy
Moore is all right and is a good
boxer, but Mike McNuIty is bunk.
III match Dundee with Roy any
time and at any place outside of
Rock Island I won't fight him
here for a while. for l think that
the fans are tired Of watching him
perform That was shown by the
small house that witnessed the Pur-
year bout"
From this, there seems to be sew
eral little differences between Pea
nuts Schieberl and Mike McNulty.
In regard to Mikes statement, we
opine although admitting that Roy
Moore is a mighty GOOD boy, that
Mike Dundee during his ring career
never has displayed any of his
sprinting powers in the squared
circle He has met some of the
best Of the bantams and has fought
them to a standsUIl. In his bout
with Roy Moore, the wop took all
that the harp had to offer, and was
coming back for more in the last
frame And as far as being punk,
Mike is far from that He is the
best that Rock Island has to offer
in the boxing game right now, and
IS this burg's only hope and chance
for a championship However, to
settle the dispute, We would like to
see Mike and Roy swap punches
once again 1t would be some scrap.

nine sweaters. two pairs Of socks

The Nauvoo city council ought to

prohibiting the smoking of cigarettes
in Nauvoo by children under the age

prohibit the sale of tobacco in any
