Joie Ray Sets q New Record in Milrose
 Games at ". Y.

New York. February 1.-Joie Ray. Illinois A c. star lapped the entire field in the special Rodman Wana- maker mile and a half run at the Milrose A. A. games tonight, cover ing the distance in minutes 42 2-5 ord. Rick Princeton was second with E. 0. McLane, University of Pennsyl- vania third, and Harold Cutbill the flying parson' of the Boston A. A.. fourth
 Ray set the former record, GAG 3-5 at the Milrose games on January 24, 1917. He has now two legs on the Wanamaker trophy, having won the event in 1920. Last year he was de- feated in a stirring race in this event by Cutbill.
 The fleet Chicagoan got away in third position and Cutbill was right at his heels. McLane and Rick set the pace until the eleventh lap until he forged to the front. Cutbill was still close behind him. Then Ray pulled away from the field and was soon a quarter of lap ahead.
 The "Parson" attempted to catch him, but the effort taxed his strength and he gradually fell back. Three laps before the finish on the eleventh mile track Ray started sprinting and lapped every runner except Martin. He passed the Penn star three feet from the finish, thereby achieving one of the most remarkable feats in athletics. The spectators, number ing about 12,OO0, cheered for several minutes.
 Rick, in a sudden burst of speed caught up to MeLane and crossed the finish line d few inches ahead of him. Cutbill was ten yards back.

GOLF FOR BONS
 A few years ago when a group of young boys struggled up into the light of championships a great deal was said for and against the boy golfer. His advent was regarded either as the most encouraging prom ise for the future of golf in Amer ica, or as menace to the game. The arguments brought forth at the time by both sides were interesting.
 We were told, forgetful for the moment of Walter J. Travis, that it was only by beginning young that we could hope to train great golfers.
 "They destroy the social life of the club" said the opponent of the boy golfer. "A club is not a nur- sery-it Is for mature men,"
 There were many other pro and con arguments, but these two were the dominant ones. Even the cad dies usually started in on the game in some remote hollow of the links, their so-called practiclng being not at all encouraged by club members.
 Diversion for Boys
 This attitude has seen complete reversal Golf now is known and understood to be the finest diversion that the boy can be led into. Since club members throughout the coun- try, comprising the keenest business minds of America, have seen the benefits to be derived by boys from golf, I think that municipalities everywhere should encourage the boy movement by making more and still more public links
 The boy will learn the game quicker and will play it better than his father. Travis is about the only outstanding example we have of a player attaining finished game after taking up the sport late in life
 Almost without exception the pro- fessional golfers of America were juvenile wonders. It is golf history that Braid took part in his first com petition when eight years old. Ray, Vardon and Taylor were doing re- markable things at 16. but the anna teurs apparently did not stray behind in juvenile golfing. John Ball, for instance, once remarked to me that he played the best golf of his life when IA years old At that age he took part in open championship at Prestwiek and finished sixth, eight

 Yep, I'm here to stay for while, It won't be long now until spring training time comes around, and then I'll be better able to tell what sort of team Birmingham will have this season You can tell the fans for me, though, that the Birmingham Baseball association Is going to try to give them a corking good team this year. It would be foolish to promise or predict pennant for Bir mingham at this stage of the year,
 After a day or two in renewing old acquaintances and settling down, Manager Molesworth plans to hop right into the midst of hard work. mailing out contracts and settling preliminary matters pertaining to a baseball season.

power in the future found itself with it's back against the wall. The only other speech before the formal vote of approval was made by Senator Schanzer for Italy and voiced general approval of the two treaties.
 It was with even briefer discus sion that the far eastern resolutions were adopted and the big crowd that had damned into continental hall to see the first plenary session since De- oember 10 showed many signs or irattention before the three and half hours occupied by the meeting had elapsed. By the hour of adjourn ment large patches of empty seats had appeared in the galleries, ano many of those who remained were engaged in conver> ation among thm- selves as the confeltnce went through the motions of forn\ fly ratifying and announcing" decisions made known through the newspapers many days before.
 Unanimously Adopted.
 Secretary Hughes, as chairman of the conference, read into the record the nine Chinese resolutions, hurry ing through their involved phrase ology in a monotone like that or reading clerks in legislative bodies. LII every case when ne lldu llnlSn6u one of the resolutions he announced the assent of the United States and then called in order the names of -the other powers at the table. Each dei- egation chairman responded with d nod of the head, and then after the announcement unanimously adopt ed, the chairman went on to the next page of the voluminous bundle of resolutions before him.
 The nine resolutions thus adopted cover a wide range of subjects.
 Briefly, they provide for withdraw al of foreign postoffices from China on January l, 1928; maintenance of the open door policy development of the Chinese railways on a basis of equitable treatment to all nationali- ties; publicatio of all international commitments affecting chinas intsr- estsi delivery to China of all forel\n radio stations established within heI borders without her consent, and consultation among the powers re- garding withdrawal of foreign troops which are in China without treaty sanction. One to which China is not party expresses the hope of tho other powers that the Chinese armed forces will be reduced.

SIMPSON QUINTET WINS EASY CAME FROM BESSEMERI
Junior Partners Ring Up Fifth Straight Game by Beat
 ing Tigers
By HORACE RENEGAR.

simpson Highs purple clad Junior Partners added another scalp to- their belt yesterday afternoon by handing the Bessemer Tigers ter rife facing, 4S to 20. The Simpson Tech outfit appeared in the best form of the season. and had little trouble in defeating the Purple and White warriors.
 The feature of the game was the long distance shooting of Yancey sem, simpson forward sem shot goals from every conceivable angle and scored enough points to beat the Bessemer quintet himself
 The game was much more thrilling than the wide margined score would indicate, much because of the hair raising shots made by Senn Besse- mer, at many times, broke through the five man defense that Simpson generally keeps so alright How ever, they were unable to locate the basket at the opportune moment.
 Tigers Take Lead.
 Bessemer started the game off with flash tossing two baskets in the opening minute before Simpson could get started. But those two goals were all that was forthcoming dur ing that first half. for after the first minute the Junior Panthers started a bombardment of their town goal that kept the ball on the Simpson end of the court during the re- mainder of the half, with few mo- mentary exceptions.
 Bessemer started a rush at the be- ginning of the second period that netted several goals.
 The winning of the Bessemer game ran the number of consecutive vic tories for the Purple Tornado" up to five.
 The stars of the game from a Simpson standpoint were Senn, Cald- well and Vincent. Caldwell found the basket for six field goals, while Vincent's work on the floor was good.
 Boyd, at forward, scored eleven of Bessemers points, and played a good game, while Fishback showed fair form at the other forward position Lineup:
 Simpson-(4S)-Cal CPD and Senn (25). forwards; Vincent (4), center; Hanna CD and Wheeler, guards. Substitutions-God for Vincent, Wright for Caldwell, Tate for Godbee, Godbee for Senn.
