CALIFORNIA WINS BIG TRACK MEET
 BY HALF A POINT
Harvard Athletes Bow Before WeSternerS in l. c. A. A. A. A. Championship at
 Cambridge

Cambridge, Mass, May 2S.-By the narrow margin of half a point, a small band of University of California ath- letes won the collegiate track classic here today. The Pacific coast stars defeated Harvard 27h points to 27 in the struggle for first place honors at the forty-fifth annual games of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America.
 Far western and mid-western col leges have many times attempted to wrest from their eastern rivals an l. c. A. A. A. A. championship, but not until today has success crowned their efforts. Tonight Cambridge was ring ing with praise for California. The victory came at the finish of an after noon of exceptional competition, and had it been arranged by a master playwright no more dramatic climax could have been achieved.
 When the final contest of the 13- event programme was started Harvard was leading California by 27 to 24 4h points. In order to win the title, R. K. Hutchinson, the lone California en- trant, had to finish third or better in the 220-yard dash
 Harvard had no survivor in this event. but Hutchinson faced the best of the eastern college sprinters.
 A bitter fight was on from the start er's gun. On past performance, Hutchinson could hardly expect to de- feat either Allen Woodring of Syra- cuse or Al Leconey of Lafayette, two of the fastest furlong sprinters of the country. It was a question of whether he could lead Davison of Cornell, Maxam of Pennsylvania and Monie Of Syracuse. Hutchinson was capable or the task. and finished in third place.
 Interest among the 11,000 spectators, who included a considerable group or California rooters, was intense. Hun dreds of athletic enthusiasts had been keeping track of the score, which un- der the intercollegiate system allows , points for first, for second, for third, 2 for fourth and for fifth place.

CITIZENS RESORT TO ADVERTISING TO BREAK
 UP INCONSISTENCIES

Opelika, Ala, May 2S.-(SpeciaD-It appears from general observation, county court records and other data that the manufacture and sale of moonshine whskey in certain sections of this county is on the increase des- bite all efforts of the sheriff's office to eradicate the evil. Recently an ad- vertisement carried in a local news paper and signed by three prominent citizens of the Farmville community calling upon the sheriff and the state law enforcement officers to break up the illicit traffic in the manufacture and sale of whisky in the Farmville section created a mild sensation here The Farmville community is noted for it's morality and good citizenship, and no one outside of its environs even suspected that the illegal traffic was being carried on to such an alarming extent as was indicated by the appeal of the aforesaid citizens The appeal follows:
 We, the members of Farmville Bap- tist church, in the name of the Mo st High God. earnestly appeal to the os- ficers of Lee county, especially the sheriff and the enforcement officers of Alabama, to aid us in eradicating the manufacture and sale of whisl1ey Tn our immediate .ion. We ask also the Ridge Grove Methodist church and the negro Baptist church Mount Siani 10 cooperate with us in this move Signed, J. c. Talbot, w W. Bradley, T, M. BotSfOrd committed"

eak-Proof Inner Tube

A pneumatic tube which can be de. pended upon to hold it's temper, and air, under the pointed attacks of nails, Jacks. glass, etc, is described, with illustra- tons, in the Popular Mechanics Maga- zine. western inventor has worked out method of making a tube which is of greater cross-sectional diameter than that of the casing with which it is used This is accomplished by moding the tube in such way that the sides collapse inward in four places over it's complete diameter when it is deflated This has the effect of decreasing it's diameter so that it can be installed in the casing. The collapsed portions on each side of the tread are indented with de- pressions about the size of thes small end of an egg. Upon imitation, in the cas- ing, the collapsed cavities expand, caus- ing the tube walls to be subjected to considerable pressure, and also to be somewhat thickened. Anything causing a puncture is simply extracted, no mending being necessary, as it is claimed that the tube walls instantly compress and close the hole so tightly that leakage is in- possible. It is also asserted that the 1a-inch thick walls greatly strengthen the casing.

Indianapolis, May 2s-(speciaD- Monday morning May 30, at 10 o'clock "A of the most representative racing creations of two continents manned by the crack drivers of four nations, will roll to the tape for the sensa- tional 5O0-mile dash for s100,000 in the ninth International Sweepstakes.
 Last year America broke the con sccutive string of foreign victories when the late Gaston Chevrolet won in an Indianapolis made Monroe This year America is banking it's hopes on the Duesenberg and Frontenac racing creations. The invaders present a strong array with the Peugeots, Sun beams, Ballot and Talbot Darracq, and French car will have the pole. How ever, the remaining three ears in the front row at the start of the race are American cars manned by three Yam kee drivers of unusual ability.
 Already the clans are gathering for the greatest sporting event in the world Automobiles from every state are to be seen at all turns. The speed way grounds are spotlessly clean and everything Is in readiness for the com ing of what promises to be an even
 
 breaking throng of 125,0Oo people.
 Fast Time Expected.
 There are drivers of the younger school with their ambition and daring pitted against the world wise veterans of many a racing brush. There are four previous International victors en- tered. The speedway record for 183- inch cars 101.1 miles per hour was made by the Pole car in the qualifying laps, and unusually fast time was made by all the entrants.
 All in all every indication points to the most successful race in all history, even taking in the famous chariot pursuits of the old Romans 1t will be interesting to watch the speed duel between DePalma, Milton, Mulford end Boyer, who are slated as the beat it' boys of their teams. Cars that are forgotton in the mad rush of a speedy few for the lap prizes at the start of the race will undoabted- ly become prominent as the race wanes. It has ever been so.
 With an added purse of approxi- mately $20,000 divided into prizes of $100 for the first car across the finish line in each lap it is expected that the race will be exceptionally fast. The interest of the entire world will bc centered on the Indianapolis motor speedway Monday.

The Salesman's Approach"

Arthur H. Little in Leslie's.
 The approach is a thing much writ ten about in books on salesmanship and much talked about in conventions and conferences of salesmen. Thou sands of salesmen have been told, specifically and in detail, just how to approach Some sales managers have gone so far as to borrow the technique of the playwright and compose whole dialogues of discourse for salesmen- dialogues so cunningly devised that all the lines are given to the salesmen and the luckless prospect is left noth- ing to do but play the yes-man and gulp and blink and agree.
 Complete sales talks have thus been standardized from the Good morning, MT. So-and- So" to the sign here please" These standardized argu- ments carbon copied and formidably bound, have been given to the sales men to be memorized. Loaded with such deadly charge as that and timed to commence firing at the slightest disturbance, one of those standardized salesmen must indeed be a formidable adversary formidable, that Is, until an unlucky day. when, en route to his first call. he stubs his toe and falls down and forgets the whole business; i; or until, out in Nebraska somewhere, he becomes entangled with a cyclone or something and has to wire the home office: Have lost last page of script. Can't close"
 All the current dissertations and standardizations and promulgations of the art of salesmanship lay much stress upon the matter of approach.
 But has any oracle in salesmanship ever undertaken to expound how not to approach? Is there anywhere a condensed shelf of books wherein a salesman may find out what not to do, to the end that. when he opens his re- marks to his prospect he may be sure that he is approaching and not retro grading?
 As things are, every salesman seems to have worked out his own approach. There are thousands of salesmen and approximately as many approaches. By the law of averages, obviously, some of them must be wrong. And of all of them, the one that most often is wrong-and farthest wrong--seems to be the trick approach.
 A trick approach is something de- signed to get and hold the attention of the prospect. Usually, that something is extraordinary; often it is something spectacular and startling. In tech- nique, the trick approach runs the whole range of human imagination and human ingenuity.

Huge Mower

Stacking the grain at the same time it is cut, is the work performed by har- vesting outfit used in Kansas, decribed and illustrated in the Popular Mechan- ics Magazine. It avoids the necessity of driving a heavy wagon about the field loading from shocks and later making a long haul to the stack. The noval part of the outfit is a 12x24-foot platform, with high slat-sided rack, mounted on wheels and hitched to the rear of a tractor. Two headers, also drawn by the tractor through a side hitch, cut the heads and short length of the stalks from the grain, after which it is carried to the rack by conveyors Three men tramp the load continuously. packing it tightly, es- pecially in the center. When the rack is filled, a rope is passed around the load and fastened to stake driven into the ground. Upon the tractor resuming It's journey the well-packed grain is un- loaded and the erstwhile load of straw becomes a stack of wheat, oats, timothy or rye, as the case may be-

WOMAN IS THROWN
 INTO RIVER FROM AN
 AUTO BY FOUR MEN
Ky Associat.d pr.s,

Baltimore, May 2S.-A woman whose identity has not been learned was thrown into the Patapsco river at midnight from an automobile in which there were four men.
 As the automobile drove off Law renee Harvey heard screams from the river. He and another man who was with Nhim jumped over the bridge and Into the water. After about 10 min- utes struggle they succeeded in pull ing the woman out of the water.
 Just as they did so the automobile containing the four men drove up again. The men jumped out and beat the rescuers. taking from them the body of the woman, which still con tained life. They then drove off from the scene.
 Harvey noticed the number of the automobile which carried the four men and gave it to the police
