 New York, March lS.-Active particlps- tion on the part of the United States in the eleventh olympiad at Antwerp. Bel gium, will begin with the cabling of the entry of hockey team on or before next Friday, which wilt be the first formal entry by the Americans
 This was one of the first of many in- prtant decisions reached at the meeting of the American Olympic committee here Saturday. Quick action was neces- sary wing to the fact that the entries close or March 19. and the play begins Arril sO Representatives of the Inter national Skating Union assured the com lnittee that the seven of championship calibre was available, and that squad of fourteen or more players would be ready to sail within two weeks unless un- toward conditions arse.
 This was the first real entry action of the present committee, but plans and ar engagements were completed at the lengthy session today for increasing activity from now until the team sails for Belgium on July "A.
 President Wilson was unanimously elected honorary president of the commit tee, and Matthew P. Halpin of the New York A. C., team manager, the same po- sition he held on the American Olympic teams of 1906-0S-12. Dates were also se- iected for the sectional trial games to be held at Chicago, Philadelphia and Pasa- dena on June 26 and the finals try-outs allotted to the Harvard stadium on | July IT,
 l Lieut.. Gen. Robert l.. Builard, com mander of the department of the east, was elected captain of the shooting team. It was announced that the trfais TOT tn- rifle and revolver entrants would be he'd 1 at the marine corps rifle range, Quan- l tico. va, during the month of June.
 The fencing trials will be held in con I inection with the national championship ] tournament in this city the last week III l April
 1 wrestling and boxing trials will be held about the same time, but the places for I the matches have not as yet been se- llected.
 Justice Bartow B. Weeks. one of the American members of the international lcommittee, stated that the American team would sail from New York on July A and arrive at Antwerp about August Z, which would give the athletes about two weeks lin which to complete their training and become -acclimated before the track com petitions begin.
 + Gen. William NJ Wright for the army and Commander c. B. Mayo stated Il was the intention of both branches of the service to give every man in the army and navy a chance to make the American team.

slippery elm. etc, has been enacted so as to provide for more hitting. It has been felt that the pitchers. by the use of arif1ce. have killed off batting. and the magnates have the idea that the public wants to see more hitting.
 It's quite true that fandom does want to see more hitting-but by the home boys onlN. There ia no great delight for the fans in New York to watch contestjn which opposition batsmen slav the Tan kee and the Giant twirlers. Or is there any great iov in Boston when the home team pitchers are pounded for score of hits.
 Many persons feel that the elim- ination of trick de1sveries will do a lot toward developing young sters who have flinging ambitions. It is pointed out that with freak styles barred the youngsters will not experiment with them and will devote themselves to learning how to pitch naturally. And this, 1t is believed will result in the develop nent during a few years of more pitchers of the Alexander and Johnson type. If that comes about then the magnates certainly ac- complished splendid reform and great thing for the game when they ruled against trick styles of throwing ball.

WITH all else having gone up,
most people will probably not be
surprised when they find that their
taxes have also gone up. There is
too much money issued. An in
flated currency is a deprecated
currency. 1t is disturbing result
of the war and the whole world is
affected by it. The production of
money increasing while production
of commodities went down, has
aggravated conditions at least
temporarily for those who have not
adjusted themselves TO the new
order of things. But history seems
to show that prices and wages will
go down again, although not to the
old scale. The new normal level
will be slightly higher than the old.
At present financial conditions are
somewhat abnormal and this will
naturally be reflected in the tax
statements.

IL seems to be generally conced

lT seems to be generally conced
ed that when the democratic
national convention nominated a
man with an anri-prohibition
record, it injected a prohibition
issue into the presidential cam
paign. The incongruity of the
selection lies in the fact that it had
been supposed the wet and dry
question in the United States was
conclusively settled when the
eighteenth amendment was ratified
by all but two or three states. But
we are reminded that the liquor
interests had not yet given up;that
they had not exhausted their ex-
Pedients in the fight to break down
the statutes and in effect nullify
the amendment on which the
statutes are based.
