tinct shock first, that this is colored

EXPRESS CRUISER
TO BE FAVORITE

DETROIT, Jan. 2S.-Fast express
cruisers, which can be used for COM
mercial purposes when not being used
in racing events, will soon displace
hydroplanes as the object of interest
to yachtsmen in speed contests, ac-
cording TO Commodore A. a, Schantz,
of the Detroit Yacht Club,
Commodore Schantz is authority
for the statement that hydroplane
racing is passing out. The type of
power boats that have been tearing
through the water at more than 60
miles an hour in the famous gold
cup races, the local yachtsman de-
clares, have little about them that is
practical.
THE government during the war.
Commodore Schantz said, did not re-
gard any of these hydroplanes serl-
ously when it was having fast boats
constructed for the navy, and that
\ fact opened the eyes of the sports
men to the impracticability of the
racing machines we have built foI
the annual races for the gold cup"
Detroit will defend the gold cuI
next fall, II necessary. he added. but
I that will be the final effort of loca
yachtsmen In the powerboat game.
Commodore Sch0ntz believes tn,
express cruiser races win attrac
many more entries than the hydro
plane events. sa r.sf sauH.

Discharged Soldiers
Seen Ignoring Army
Rules for Uniform

Local soldiers and others visit
ing PendIeton are protesting
against the manner in which a
few discharged soldiers wear
their uniforms. They complain
that some seem to forget that
though they are no longer SOL
diers the uniform is still that of
their country and should receive
the same respect and care as
when the wearer was in the serv-
ice.
Rules for wearing the uniform
after receiving discharge re-
quire that the blouse or hat with
cord never be worn without the
full uniform. The blouse should
be buttoned, IL too warm take it
off. The overcoat may be worn
over civilian clothes, but should
be worn fully buttoned. The
discharged soldier should never
look upon the uniform of his
country as a mere suit of cloth
ing. 1t represents more than
that.
Chief of Police Roberts has
expressed his intention of
speaking to soldiers noticed vio-
lating the rules for wearing the
uniform.
