Cambridge. Mass. July 23.-College
youth of England and America
matched speed and strength in games
of track and field at the Harvard stadi-
um to-day 1t was the fifth interna.
tiona meeting between athletic teams
of oxford Cambridge, Harvard Yale
and the score of the series stood a
tie.
The athletes came down to the stadi-
um from Swampscott on the north
shore where they had trained together
by day and danced on the same floors
in the evening. The spirit OF sporting
fraternity in which the Americans had
helped their British rivals by instruc-
ton in pole vaulting and the high
jump, and which the Englishmen had
manifested in accepting without ques.
ton the program of events suggested
by their hosts, was still in evidence.
Weather conditions promised a per.
feet setting for the competitions.
To-day's meeting differed from those
usually held in this country Like the
four previous international meetings,
scoring was on first places only, except
in case of tie, when second places
were checked There were 10 events,
without trial heats or preliminary ef
forts
The shotput was contested for th'
first time at these games. Only one
dash--l00 yards--and one hurdles race,
100 wards over high barriers, were ar
ranged, and the pole vault and other
events familiar in American meetings
were omitted
The Englishmen hoped to obtain
their point credits principally in the
running events, quarter mile, half mile,
mile and two mile The American col
legians counted on cutting in for at
least one of those first places, to win
also but one of the field events, con
sisting Of broad jump, high jump, shot
put and hammer throw, 10 win the hur
dies race and to night it out in the
other events for the deciding point |
This was regarded as likely to develop |
in the l00-yard dash, the twomile run |
or the hammer throw.
Captain B. 9 D. Rudd, the Oxford |
and South African running star, was
the principal factor in the British |
hopes He was to attempt to gain vic
tory in the 100 440- and ss0.yard |
races. G G. Krogness Of Harvard was

WITH THE BRAVES
While New York Giants
Were Losing to Gin
cinnati

New York, July 23.-Pittsburgh
National league leaders, maintained a
respectable lead over New York by
breaking even in double -header with
the on.rushing Boston Nationals yes
terday, while the Giants were forced
back another lap by Cincinnati
The Giants, apparently in a slump,
right at the time when they hoped TO
overhaul the Pirates in the league
race, are finding Pat Moran's Reds
hard to beat. The Ohioans by admin
istering a II to defeat to McGraw's
men yesterday won their fifth con-
secutive victory. They played good
baseball, made Is hits, exhibited a
sparkling defense and were aided by
steady pitching by Senior Adolfo
Luque. George Kelly the Giants first
baseman, leading home run hitter in
the National circuit, made his l4th
yesterday.
Both the Boston Pittsburgh contests
were overtime affairs. The Braves won
the first in ten innings when Pitcher
Hamilton issued base on balls with
the bases filled. The Pirates captured
the second in the 18th inning.
Two homers in the ninth inning by
Grimes and Deal of Chicago aided the
Cubs in winning over Philadelphia aft
er two consecutive defeats.

ENGLISH DIVORCES INCREASE
Were SIS Per Cent More in 1919 Than
in 1913.

London, July 23.-Suits for divorce
in 1919 increased $50 per cent over
1918, the year before the war. Com
pared with 1918, the increase is ia
per cent. There were 5,763 cases in
1919
To great extent, this growth in
the business OF the divorce court is
attributed in a judicial report to the
facilities for instituting proceedings
provided since 1914 for the benefit of
the poor people who brought 2.34l Of
the 5,763 suits.

Washington, July 23.-James M.

Chick Evans of Chicago, when he won

of the British open title, as one OF the

SMOOT SUGAR TAX
PASSED BY SENATE
Additional Cent a Pound
Approved in Fordney
Tariff Measure.

The same alignment of forces by
which the Fordney tariff bill was
expected to pass the Senate yester-
day put through the Smoot sugar
duty sections providing for an addi-
tional tax of l cent a pound on i'm
portations of raw sugar. The tariff
was approved after vigorous oppo-
sltion of Democrats, who charged
it to be a direct tax on the Ameri-
can breakfast table, amounting to
several times a cent a pound after
various handlers of sugar partici-
pated in the increase in price.
Senator McCumber, Republican
sponsor of the Fordney bill. eX-
planned that the tax on sugar would
be borne cheerfully by the American
people in order to contribute the
revenue necessary to the operation
OF the government.
The SmOot duties were accepted
by the Senate in preference to those
suggested by the Committee on
Finance. Senator Thomas, Demo
Crat, Of Colorado, was the only
member Of the Senate to oppose the
substitute, as against sixty-seve n
who supported it. The sugar sched-
ules then were adopted as part OF
the bill by vote of Al to 90. Sen
Rors MOees and Keyes, both Of New
Hampshire, were the only Republi-
cans to vote in the negative, while
Senators Gay and Ransdell, of Lou
isiana; Jones, New Mexico; Ken
drick, Wyoming; Sheppard, Texas
voted with the Republicans.
