The attitude adopted by Leonard
and his manager has served to make
them unpopular with Phi1adeiphia

opinion prevails in the Quaker City

Because OF the recent meeting OF the

He speaks OF the fact that athletics

 MILES OF ROADS

Richmond, Va, Aug. This state is determined to be in the front rank of those commonweaIths that will arrange for the construction of the most modern highways through out their confines. It has plans for expenditures amounting $6O,O0O,- 900 during the next six years and the mileage proposed Is 3.75O. These facts have been announced by the State Highway Commission and they are based upon securing $1O,OOO,O from the Federal government, fin ac- cordance with the existing system by which the government is contributing to the highway expenditures of the various states.
 Different characters of construc- ton are intended, suggested by the districts in which the roads will be built and the availability of materials there tending toward minimizing the cost. The financing provides obtain ing the money through revenues and bonds, the various counties to issue certain quotas which will be vote d upon by the people.
 The State Highway Commission has been anti Is now active in approving engineers plans and specifications for constructing roads, and is steadily awarding contracts at the county seats of many counties. It recom- mends a special session of the Legis- lature to 1egalize the $60,0O0,0O9 plan announced.
