Car owners who are holding
back on the purchase of tire
equipment in the hope Of a re-
duction in prices are likely to be
disappointed. There is nothing
in the tire manufacturing situa-
ton to indicate a downward
trend of tire costs. On the con-
trary, break" that will nee
essarily mean the advancing OF
prices seems inevitable. A re-
sumo of the tire industry and
the conditions under which it
has developed in the last decade,
causes the casual observer to
wonder, in fact, that tire prices
have not already begun to climb
steadily. Unless one studies
carefully the underlying reasons
for the successful checking OF
tire prices in the face of over,
whelming advances in virtually
every other commodity, it is
rather amazing to note that
prices now are much lower thar
they were ten years ago. 1t is
still more interesting to compare
prices of standard manufacture
tires today with prices of the
same product at the beginning
of the war. Good tires now
cost no more than in 1914
There has not even been an ap'
preciable advance in the last
two years. And yet the quality

GOTHAM WANTS
CLEAN SPORTS
New York Easily Awakens
As Legislature Hears
Bills Legalizing Game.

New York. Feb. 2.-America, so to
speak. is pulling on the gloves.
Millions Of robust young Americans
came out of the army confirmed box
ing fans. They boxed as part Of
their fighting education. They saw
boxing conducted on high standard
and they want to see more boxing.
The United States is strong for the
glove game. but the States individ-
ually are afraid OF it Only a few of
the forty-eight are conscious of its
eievation from back of the barroom
orgy to sport appealing to the best
of the high type of citizen.
Boxing needs no recommendation
as a builder of strength in body and
character. What II needs, however.
Is regulation. The State of New York
Is now scratching its head over the
best way to regulate a sport that the
entire State Is saying I'VE must have"
Watching New York.
Boxing bills now before the leg
islature are matters of concern not
only for New York. but every State
that does permit the sport. not only
because New York is one of the
pulses of the nation, but because
New York tried boxing once and
ordered 1t out. The legislature is
about to consider it's retrial and the
outside States are waiting to see
what il does.
II New York Is to adopt boxing
again and get the best out of 1t, the
subject of supervision is OF first and
fundamental Importance. Boxing is
a lot like an automobile. II 1t gets
loose without a hand on the wheel
1t will create havoc and end in
ruin.
The guiding hand of boxing
should not be politicians. but COM
petent, experienced men of high
standing in their respective COM
munities. The size of the commits
sion is not important but 1t should
be allowed to appoint subsidiary
committees answerable to it. in
every community where boxing is
to be conducted.
The commission should be clothed
with the power to usher to the gates
and close the doors on all fighters
and managers of fighters who prove
least bit shady. The committee
should also be allowed to license
clubs that conduct bouts. To pro-
tect the money of his constituents.
Uncle Sam will not let every Tom.
Dick and Harry start a bank: to
protect the money and interests of
the fans. the State should not per-
nit every Tom, Dick and Harry to
put on boxing bouts.

Philadelphia Feb. z.-Complete Vim
dication Of Bob" FolwelPs conduct
of last fall as coach OF the varsity
football eleven OF the University Of
Pennsylvania will be demanded from
the Football Committee and the yAth-
letic Council, who have been reported
as having engaged John Heisman as
coach of the Red and Blue for the
next season. by the members of the
1919 varsity team. According to the
consensus of opinion OF the number
OF footballers who attended the Yale
basketball contest on Saturday night,
the action Of the Football Committee
In dropping Folwefi and signing Heis-
man is a direct reflection upon the
character Of the Folwell regime, which
has held sway over Franklin Field
for the past four years.
Time and again recently have the
Pennsylvania athletic authorities
maintained that they were going to
clean up the university athletics. and
the dropping of Folwell and his
staff of coaches is taken as indica-
tive of their threats by the foot
ball players and students at large
Such a move is entirely unjust to
Folwell personally. argue the grid
ders who served under the Mullica
Hitler. and they have decided that
the football committee must pub
licly exonerate Robert.
Besides Folwen the action of the
football committee can also be taken
as slam against all the members
of the 1919 team, because every one
of the twenty-four varsity lettered
gridders signed a petition that fhe
old coach be retained. And the said
players. headed by Captain-elect Bud
Hopper and ex-Captain Bell. will
carry the fight to the athletic coun-
Gil when that body convenes and
demand an explanation. since the
football committee will make none.

two years on account OF the club
holding back his pay, claiming they
would give it to him as soon as
they could. and in the meantime
they obtained for him a position
and he worked in that city all
winter.
When training time came and
the team began to play the game
they made good. knowing that
Stencil would remain with them
until fall, thinking, Of course. that
they would pull the same stunt
again the next winter. That is
how that team kept several other
players who afterwards became

Demand is made that johnson be
restrained from paying to himself
or receiving any amolument as
salary CT otherwise, from the league
as its president secretary or trea-
surer. and that any salary received
by him since the league meeting
on December 10 shall be fully &C

of $4,000 a year. regardless Of the
fact that the league constitution
provides that the presidents salary
shall be fixed by vote of the league
and no such vote was taken.
Disregards Rules
1t Is also claimed in the complaint
that demand was made at the league
meeting for the election of a presi--

but that johnson. who presided az the
meeting and who has maintained that
