ed all echoing of sound as rhetorical

COLISEUM, CHICAGO, June .9.-Sena-
tor Hiram johnson has begun to exercise
his veto power in the Republican ma
tional convention. Through his intimate
friend and colleague, Senator Borah OF
Idaho. he served notice that the people
of the United States would in his ludg-
ment defeat the Republican party next
November if it nominated either Leonard
Wood or Governor Lowden.
1--WE are not going to sell the presl-
dency of the United States" exclaimed
Senator Borah Just after Senator John
son had finished addressing a throng OF
delegates and convention visitors and the
general impression left by the two sena
| tors was that the Republican party neec
not expect the support of either one II
the coming campaign if Wood or LowdeI
/ is nominated.
/ Hiram Johnson may not be able to get
the presidency for himself, but he and hi'
group now are determined that neithe
| Wood nor Lowden shall get it and they
/ have raised enough fuss already to maxi
! it probable that the new "old guard" vii
turn from both Lowden and Wood to tn
dark horses. Hughes, Lenroot, Sprou
and Hoover are the four most prominen
candidates after the big three-Wood
Lowden and Johnson-have been elm
mated.
Senator johnson hasn't given up tn
| fight. Senator Borah fhas announce,
that he would fight on the convention
floor against the adoption of any com
promise on the league of nations. \
| threat of a bolt has been made. but wha

Borah-Johnson group are trying to rout
the conservatives at this conven-
ton. Governor Lowden's lieutenants
stand firm but they, as Republican
leaders, know that they must satisfy
johnson to get his active support on the
stump. SO, in a nutshell, the Wood and
Lowden booms may be said to be on the
toboggan. The leaders will not imme-
diately give up. but the drift is already
toward Hughes, Sproul, Hoover. Lenroot
and the others who have figured less
prominently in the primary campaigns
and the struggle for delegates.

meeting yesterday afternoon to decide
upon measures TO put a stop to. this
wave of wanton destruction and every

SCHOOLBOY HOCKEY
LEAGUE IN MAKING
Effort to Organize Scholastic
Circuit to Be Made at Meet
ing Tomorrow
BY PAUL PREP

An effort is being made to organize a
scholastic hockey league. While sew
eral high schools, preps and academies
have had hockey teams each year, there
never has been a scholastic circuit in
this branch of sport because of the lack
of facilities.
With the construction of the Ice
Palace at Forty fifth and Market
streets the prospects of league COM
posed of schoolboy teams looks bright.
Invitations for meeting relative to such
a league have been sent out to schools in
Philadelphia and vicinity. This session
is scheduled for tomorrow.
Among the schools to be represented
at the meeting will be Episcopal Acad-
envy, Penn Charter, Germantown Acad-
emy, Chestnut Hill Academy, st. Luke s
School, Haverford School and Swarth
more Prep.
If it is decided at tomorrow's meet
ing that a league be formed immediate
action will be taken. A committee will
be appointed and schedule of games

to q mere spark After making tre-
from Willie Harmon Affeck made a
comparatively miserable showing against
the Philadelphia schoolboy.
Brown showed to advantage in every
round, scoring three different and dis
tinct knockdowns. In the second ses-
sion Afieck was hoored with right
cross for the count of four, and in the
third period Brown dropped the Briton
twice Harry's third knockdown found
Afieck in an unconscious condition,
taking the count when the tingle of the
gong saved him from *. ..
But it cannot be said that Billy is not
game. He put on as gritty an exhibition
as ever seen in the Olympia ring. Dur
