Only Upset on Opening Day Of
Mems and Women's lntercIub
Lawn Tennis League
ALL TEAMS CON PET {
MEMS LEAGUE STANDING
woMEN's LEAGUE STANDING
BY SPICK HALL

There was but ono big upset in all
the matches played yesterday on the
opening afternoon of the women's and
mems interclub lawn tennis leagues.
This was the defeat of Miss Anne Il.
Townsend. captain Of the Merton Cricket
Club team. BY Miss Phyllis II. Walsh,
Of the Philadelphia Country Club. That
was the only victory won by the Coun-
try Club from the Main Line girls, and
it was rather remarkable in view of the
fact that Miss Walsh is not the regu-
lar first singles player Of the Country
Club team. Recently the Florida cham
pion was beaten by Mrs. Gilbert A.
Harvey. but Yesterday Mrs. Harvey was
III, so Miss Walsh took her place, as the
ranking player Of the Bala team.
Miss Walsh has been playing con
siderably more than Miss Townsend.
who has not yet reached her real form.
Miss Townsend took the first set at
tory in the secord set. the Merton girl
faltercd and Miss Walsh came through
SO. In the third set Miss Townsend
was completely off her game and Hiss
Walsh won as she p'eased. G-1.
The Merton team was well balanced
and most Of the players showed much
better form than they did at this time
last season. Miss Deborah Seal was
back in tennis uniform. She trimmed
Miss Warriner with the loss of only one
game. so that in manner of speaking
one might say that Miss Warriner was
''subdeb."
Miss Thayer Absent
Miss Molly Thayer. one of the best
players in the Philadelphia district. was
not in the lineup of the Philadelphia
Cricket Club team. However, the cap
taincy and first singles position is well
taken care Of by Mrs. NJ. B. HUFF, who
Yesterday won her match from Mrs.
w. p. Newhall, of Germantown. in
straight sets, 6-4. 0-3. The Cricket
Club made clean sweep OF their
matches and not one Of them went the
limit of three sets and only one set went
to deuce-that was the first in the match
between Miss BeSsy Ferguson and Mrs.
ID. b. Grace.
Huntington Valley had a good day.
losing only one match to Belfeld. The
best match was the first singles event,
in which Miss Helen Sewell defeated
Mrs. Robert Herold. captain Of the
Belfield team. 90. -. Miss Riegei
won Belfield's only match from Miss
Downing, Ga. 2-6. 90.
Merton Shows Strength
Meron's mems team showed as much
strength as the women. They made a
grand slam. winning all six matches
from Overbrook. The Merton team
consisted of Ted Edwards. Rowland
Evans. Stanley Rogers, Henry Endcott
Wister and Bell and T. and +. Thayer.
As expected. Cynwyd had no trouble
in beating Belfeld, although the latter
won match in doubles when l. s.
Cravis and George Powell fell before
Smith and Willetts. That match went
three sets and the scores were 6-3,
40. 6-3.
Carl Fischer had some difficulty in
his singles match with Marshall but
Wallace F. johnson. Tr. =. B. Hawk
and G. c. Shafe' had no trouble in
winning from their opponents.

It's winning streak in the interscholastic
League, registering the seventh straight
victory by defeating West Philly High
to 5. The game was played at King

well be termed comedy Of errors"

four errors were charged against them
Germantown also had four mishaps, but
they were scattered.

that the Purple and Gold did to th'

COMEDY HITS
BULL FIGHTS
Women and Tame Beasts En-
danger Mexican Pastime

MEXICO CITY. April 2S.-Is the com
time honored national sport of Mexico :?
This question has arisen because of the
large attendances that have marked the
recent series Of bull fight burlesques
Emulating Charlie Chaplin, one Of the
company cavorts about the ring perform
ing all kinds of antics with the bull to
the delight of the crowds. He plays cards
while seated on the animal, Is carried
through the dust while gripping the
bovine tall and otherwise keeps the spec
tators in an uproar. Others of the troupe
appear in full dress suits, some In
grotesque, padded costumes, and permit
the bulls to toss them in the air. In the
comedy spectacles the bull. after much
buffoonery, is eventually killed, but no
horses are used. In the real fights horses
are always a feature.
Because the comedy fights have at
tracted to much interest some Mexicans
fear for the future of the old sport, AMI
when recently a group of six pretty
senoritas were advertised as bull fighters
and actually appeared in various parts
of the republic it was too much for one
WIlttE NHOs III n u beul-
ocrata of Mexico City, says in part:
THE feminine has for many years been
succeeding in almost every activity and
the bull fight could not be excepted in
this order. One group Of feminine bull
fighters was organized in Spain and some
of the matadoras used nicknames, SUCH
as 'Reverte,' Angelica etc. These were
the pioneers of the feminine element in
the bull rings. I think women should
go to the bull fights to decorate the gal
leries and make the fiesta a merry occa-
sion, but they should not contribute to
gloom, because It is gloomy to see three
or four women shivering with fear before
an inoffensive bull, and also rolling in
the dust while the public laughs The
bull fight, above all, is manly sport.
The man is needed, but women in the
ring only bring down the scorn of the
public. 1t was pity last Sunday to see
several women fly in panic amid laugh
ter, notwithstan ding the fact that the
bulls were very tame. But when a mem
Der Of the group rolled in the dirt and
shivered with fear the feminine theories
rolled with her."

RAIL WORKERS
PRESENT PLEA
TO WAGE BOARD
Claim Living Costs Not Low
Enough Now for Pay
Cut.

CHICAGO, April 2s-Railway workers
presented to the United States Railway
Labor board today their plea against
wage reduction asked by the railroads.
They denied the assertion Of railroad
executives that the cost of living has
gone down sufficiently TO warrant a re-
duCed pay schedule or that wages in
similar Industries" have dropped.
The board should make no reduction
In wage rates because there have been no
reductions in wages paid in comparable
industries steel and COAL b. NJ. Jewell.
labor leader. told the board. There has
not been sufficient reduction in the cost
of living to Justify cuts in wages that
were inadequate to meet living costs at
the time they were established"
Jewell claimed the Railroad Board
cannot entertain a plea from railroad
managers for reduction in wages until
the inadequacies of management and the
high operating costs resulting therefrom
have been eliminated"
The financial interests controlling the
railroads also control production Of fuel
timber equipment oil and other supplies"
Jewell asserted He charged these finan-
cial interests determined upon a policy
TO decrease rail expenses by reducing
wages and "at the same time charge un-
warranted prices for fuel, Steel timber,
oil and other supplies"
The board should not consider com
plants relative to pay rates until II Is
satisfied the railroads are not being
forced to purchase fuel, equipment, oil
and timber at exorbitant price" Jewell
said.
The witness said for eighteen months
prior TO the decision of the rail labor
board creating the present pay schedule
workers did not earn sufficient money to
buy even the necessarles Of life

LOGANSPORT, Ind. April 2s.-Al-
though the new law providing for the
holding Of special elections to decide on
the city manager form Of government by
Indiana cities automatically postpones the
holding of regular primaries until the
question is decided by the people in each
individual city, after petitions have been
duly filed with city clerks, all of which
has been done here, the election commits
sioners of Logansport are going stead
lily ahead with their preparations for the
regular primary election.
Politicians assert there Is not the
slightest possibility Of delaying the pri-
mary election, while sponsors of the new
plan are equally confident that the spe-
cial election will be called.
The printing of ballots has been com
pleted, election booths are being estab
lished and election boards of twenty
three precincts have been selected, while
an air of mystery envelopes the city as
to what the outcome will be.
City Attorney Robert c. Hills declares
the law requires certain duties of cleo
ton commissioners and until that law Is
superseded by another their obligations
are mandatory and they have no alter
