9Th Regt. Ar1nory To Be
Scene of Boys and Ju-
rliors' Annual Tourneys
By Fred Hawthorne

There should be some fine tennis
shown at the 7th Regiment Armory this
week, when the younger set begin
play in the annual national indoor jun
ior and boys championship tourna-
ments The first match is scheduled for
10, O'Clock this morning, and the boys
viii be striving for tho titles all
through the week.
When these Journeys first began.--and
1t was not so long ago-there we've not
more than two OF three Of the com
petitors who played anything better
who won the juniors in 1915 and 1916,
and James Weber and Henry B.
O'Doyle, the runner-up, were SO far
above the field in the quality of their
play that the rest were practically no.
where.
The last two or three yea,s, however,
have witnessed a remarkable general
improvement in the play of the Young
sters. There are now at least score
OF boys in this city who are fully cap
able OF extending some of the ranking
men players of the country. Vincent
Richards, present junior indoor and
outdoor champion, and Frank T An
cerson are examples of what | mean.
Richards's playing last season has
earned him ranking in the first ten,
whether he is awarded that honor or
not, and young Anderson is only A notch
below him in skill.
Inc women's indoor championship
tourney has been played in the 7th
keglment Armory ever since 1907. the
nrse ,hse year Of play, and the chances are
year in March, although it has not
yet been officially scheduled by the
national association.
ms was because at the annual meet
ing OF the association last winter there
were reports that Mrs. Barger- Wallach
was gong to erect large building in
the vlclnlty of Park Avenue and Six-
tleth Street, where provision would he
made from the installation Of half =
dozen indoor courts with improved
lighting facilities.
The women's tournament committee
thcreupon decided to defer asking for
the usual sanction for holding the
tournament in the arn.ory, in the cx-
pectation that the proposed Wallach
building would be in readiness. Since
nothing has come of the latter project,
however, the women will undoubtedly
apply for the army date

TO retain her laurels if Mrs Molo

holder; Miss Eleanor Ross and Miss
Marion Zndc1stcin among others de-
c.de to enter. 1t would be n welcome
sight to see Mrs. Mallory playing once
more IN the armory, whore she won
the tournament on three different u. oc-
casions. And who would be able 70
prevent her repeating?
1t would add to the interest Of the
women's tournament at the armorv if
some Of the leading players from other
Eastern cities were to compete. Thore
are three or four stars in Boston and
at least half dozen in Philadclnhia

they were to compete here.

Event Carries Net Value of
So, 700; Breadman Adds
Another Stake to Big List
From Special Correspondent


HAVANA, Dec. 26.-Mose Goldblatt's
good colt Billy Barton was returned an
easy winner Of the Cuba mile, the fea-
ture Of splendid card at Oriental Park
to-day. The event carried a net value
Of $2,790. 1t was really no contest for
the colt. He was rated off the early
pace, which was sent by Fright to the
stretch turn. Here Kennedy let out a
wrap.
The colt responded quickly, ran
Fright into submission and drew away
in the last sixteenth, to win in a romp
by four lengths.
1:39. Willow Tree closed fast and at
the end caught the fast tiring Fright
and defeated him By half length for
the place. Fright was six leneths in
front Of the next horse, Cubanita.
breadman added another stake to his
aiready long list when he won the age
,andlcap, at one mile and sixteenth,
defeating Ball mooney and Buford.

MANUAL TR AIMING HAS ;
BIG PART IN EDUCATION
~ Taught in Bemidji Schools,
I'll Course Il Thorough but
e Yet Incomplete

Manual training in the school has
several very definite parts to play in
the seducation of the boys. At all
times it is aimed to give as pract1-
cal an education in this line as pos
sible, 1t will be appreciated that
boys are not all fitted for the same
calling. Some must be future doc
:. tors, some future statesmen and some
mechanics. In one sense OF the word
manual training is to determine
which a boy is best fitted for.
Manual training will be found
equally beneficial to the doctor and
statesman as we'll as to mechanic.
There will always be times when his
training will be Of great benefit to
him. To a mechanic it will mean,
laying the foundation for his future
success.
1t is not aimed to turn out first
class journeymen mechanics in this
department as this would take years
of experience on the part OF the stu
dent, but it is planned to teach the
fundamental principles of mechanics
The following is the course OF
study this year: In the seventh and
eighth grade work the boys are
taught how to work up small articles
Of wood from blue prints, in which
the squaring up Of stock plays very
important part. Also the use Of all
hand tools is taken up.
The Freshman year in the High
school is taken up Of the following
Joints; cross joints, mortice and tenor
Angular joint, timber splice and
dove-tail. The boys then build an
oak foot -stool on which is required
twenty mortices and~tenons, also the
upholstering Of the same. The boys
then are allowed to select a small
piece Of furniture, such as center
tables, pedestals, game tables, etc:
The Freshman year mechanical
drawing is given in connection to the
shop work. Plates Of the various
pieces of wood work made in the shop
are layed out.
Geometrical problems are dealt
with. Tracings and blue prints are
made following several simple ma
chine part plates.
The advanced boys in wood work
have completed some very practical
work such as building cabinets fol
the science department, doors FOL
their lockers, blackboards for some OF
lne class rooms and table for the
commercial department. They arc
now working on furniture problems
such as library tables, rockers, dress
ing tables, tool chests and morris
chairs Later in the year there vii
be several miniature models Of pun
galows built.
The mechanical drawing Of the ad
vanced boys is the making Of furni
ture. Detail drawing, problems o,
laying out tin work, such as stove
pipe joints, ETC., and geometrical cal
culations.
Third year manual training is tax
ing up wood turning. Pattern max
ing, cement work and machine draw
ing.
The school would like very mucl
to tffer machine shop practice ant
forge wofk for the fourth year work
but is Unable to do so on accoun
Of lack of room and equipment.
The Junior High school manua
training department has its shop il
the basement of the Central schoo
building. They are very busy jus
now as the boys are finishing III
many Of their projects for Christmas
The seventh grade boys are max
