ANDERSON RETAINS
LAURELS IN TENNIS
Defends Metropolitan Junior
Title Successfully Against
G. Donaldson.
ny EUGENE n. o,CoNNELL.

Frank T. Anderson Of Commercial
High School retained the junior metro
politan tennis championship yesterday
He defeated Cecil Donaldson. another
Brooklyn boy. in the Anal OF the titulnr
tournament on the courts OF the Kings
County Tennis Club in Brooklyn. Ander-
aon met Donaldson last year in the fight
for the metropolitan title and won after
a hard battle. Tho row he had to no,
last year to gain the supremacy, how
ever, was not nearly as tough as was
his path to victory yesterday. Anderson
won only after the hardest kind of h
struggle In FIVE sets. at 6--1. e., 81,
Is. Ga.
In the totals Anderson Is credited
with three sets, twenty-seven games and
1b6 points against two sets, twenty
games and 113 points for Donaldson
The actual playing difference between
the two boys was not nearly that great
Anderson won the match because his
staying qualities were a little better than
those OF his rival II Il were necessary
to pick out any special department OF tn.

advantage over the other there would be
great difficulty for the picker.
1t Is true that Anderson made better

but even on this stroke comparison
could be made only as relative to the
outcome Donaldson double faulted fire.
duently. He had n total OF thirteen
double faults for the match and some
helped Anderson to victory. When Dom
aldson was not double faulting his SER
vice was severe enough to give Anderson
trouble.
Anderson Starts Strong.
Anderson started the match in n con-
hdent manner and ran through the first
three games with the loss on only two
points. In this early stage of the con-
test, he seemed to tower above Donald
son. The latter brought out some excep-
tional gets In the fourth game and won
It. The fourth was the only game that
he won in the opening set, although he
made bid for the seventh and brought
Il to deuce twice before II was decided.
In tho final set Donaldson was never
dangerous. He had worked himself
out in the third and fourth sets bring
Ing the match to a tie and could not
muster up either the strength or the
speed to accomplish anything in the
final set.
In the seventh game Of this set when
he led at 1910 Donaldson made two
double faults which allowed Anderson
TO break through his service, taking
the lead at So and virtually clinch
the championship. The summaries and

1918. In other words the added quantity dis
tributed would be sufficient ordinarily to sup
ply the country for 80 days. II is denied that
foreign countries have been given any more
than they originally contracted for or that the
profit made in selling abroad has been greater
than that realized IN supplying the' home
market.
Sol Westerield, chairman Of the retail food
distributors executive committee In Chicago.
holds that the cause Of the shortage is the
natural disinclination Of rehners or dealers to
pay almost as much for raw supplies in Cuba
as they are permitted to charge for the fin
ished product In this country The price OF
raws has been bid up in Cuba till they sell for
around s12 per hundred, which is the present
wholesale price that jObbers are allowed to
charge In the United States. With the can
ners and the candy makers the situation is
different. They are in position to pay any
price that may be asked and then pass it along
to the consumer, for they are under no arbi-
tFary restrictions
Mr.. Westerheld believes that if price re-
strictions are removed so that rehners and
price and charge enough to give them fair
profit there will soon be plenty of sugar in
this country-but it will retail for perhaps as
much as % cents per pound, and many will
be forced to do without. 1t is a question
whether such a situation would be really pre-
feFable~to the one now existing.
The sugar equalization board frankly ad-
mits It does not know what has become Of
the 100000 tons ezra that this country has
absorbed this year, for it's records go no fur

there really has been boarding is the ques-
ton that most people would like to see an

The industrial conference is going straight
to the point. The delegates know what they

side of the controversy is going to get all it
asks for. Compromises must be made and they
are prepared to make them

There is a war on between two

take shower baths or to go in swim

The EpiIeptic State.

Individuals who have convulsive
seizures followed by stupor or IN
consciousness at irregular inter
walls through several years are fire.
Quently in doubt whether the title
OF epilepsy should be applied to the
condition. There seems to be a
stigma attached to the epileptil
state and hense over-sensitive sub
jects Of such seizures are reluctant
TO believe that the trouble is cpl
lepsy. Certainly 1t is wholesome to
conceal ones illhealth or physical
frailties from the world, and rather
morbid and meretritious to parade
them before the public. Yet epilep-
sy is in no sense a more odious
affliction than is neurasthenia or
neuritis, only it isn't quite so pop
ular.
Just what epilepsy is nobody can
clearly define 1t seems to be a
name applied to certain period
ically recurring commissions with
loss of consciousness or without. or
sometimes loss of consciousness
without commissions, the seizures
being commonly preceded by an
. aura, which is some peculiar SEN
sation the subject experiences
when seizure impends. When no
specific cause can be found to ac-
count for these attacks the name OF
epilepsy is applied.
One reason for the stigma at
tached to epilepsy is that children
of parents VINO INDUCED in alec
hoiic beverages, even moderately
If SUCH indulgence can be termed
moderate-are more likely to have
epilepsy.
When attacks resembling cpl
lepsy begin after the age of 80
years. the cause is more likely to
be some specific condition, such as
a brain abscess resulting from ear
or nasal disease of years standing
or from some previous injury to
the head; or the blood poisoning
or toxemia accompanying obscure
lead poisoning; or unrecogniZed
uremfa from kidney disease; or
diabetes; or unfecognized syphilis;
or a brain tumor.
In a typical epileptic seizure
Ccalled grand mall the victim feels
his peculiar warning sensation,
(aura) and perhaps groans or cries
out, then falls to the ground in a
rigid spasm which lasts q few sec
onds and is followed by the con-
vulsive movements. First the face
is pale. but during the CONFUSION
it becomes livid, from the interior
ence with free breathing. The pu-
pills dilate. Usually saliva exudes
from the mouth (frothnig at the
mouth) and perhaps the tongue is
bitten causing bleeding from tue
mouth. In a minute or two the
commissions cease and stupor or

Another reason why the fear of bolshevisI
s groundless in~this country was given b
General A. Mitchell Palmer in a re
ent public address, when he said:
The mistake which seems to have
been made by many is this: They affect
TO believe that the general movement
for better conditions in, other parts of the
world must have its counterpart in

Dear Eleanor" everybody called
her. if not to her face. a least be-
hind her back, and the latter was
the surest proof of her popularity.
She was a bright faced, smiling
girl but just as ready to share and
console in the troubles of others as
to become a partner in their joys.
Adaptability was the secret of her
rare magnetic influence, and Vance
Dunbar felt that he had acquired a
precious prize when she consented
to become his wife.
