WHY HE QUIT US.

This paper has lost one subscriber
ON account of the editorial on the
soldier bonus. A veteran of the war
called in and paid up and "quit us,
because. as he said. that he did not
like what we said about the bonus.
The paper will continue to come out
as usual on Friday morning. On the
other hand several readers have ex-
pressed themselves as endorsing ou
position. We are in favor heartily as
said heretofore of taking care of the
injured and crippled, but to capitai
ize the patriotism of the American,
soldier is wrong in principle, to say
nothing of saddling n burden of mil
lions of dollars in taxation upon tn,
already tax-ridden and oppressed
citizens of this country.

HuSSey'S DdShfor Herald
Medals ArOuSeS Experts
Critics Wonder How Far IL
Year-Old Star Will
Progress.

Local athletic circles yesterday
humned with praise for Frank Hussey
of Stuyvesant, who ran 100 yards in
9 9-10 seconds at the high school cham
pionships on Saturday, and praise for
THE NEW YORK HERALD, which donated
all the prizes. and the p. s. A. L.,
which ran off the greatest carnival in
the History OF sport in this country
Tie idea of holding the championships
for the entire school system on one
day proved so successful that Gen.
George w. wingate, DIR. A. X. Aldinger
and John J. McHugi. all agreed that
the triple games would be fixture.
The Championships held true to form.
AS had. been predicted the high school
title went to Stuyvesant with more than
forty points-4S to be exact Public
School No. 10 won THE NEW YORK
HERALD silver trophy for the champion
ship in that division. No. So took the
new title among the junior high schools
and Manual Training won THE NEW York
HERALD trophy for the one mile senior
relay race. Manuals flying four had to
turn in the fastest mile run hereabouts
this year to take the big silver cup, the
finest relay trophy in America.
Because of the fact that the names of
the schools will have to be engraved on
the cups they were not presented 70 the
winners on Saturday. but that will be
done at exercises to be arranged by the
schools in the near future.
Just how far Hussey will go in pairing
his time for the century" is a problem
which athletic sharps discussed with
iofkt -
teen-and he has another year IL Stuy-
vesant. He already has run the fastest
hundred ever credited to a lad of his age
He was only one-tenth of second away
from the worlds interscholastic record
of 3 4-5 seconds-and he never knew a
thing about running before he came to
Stuyvesant
Coach Collins of Stuyvesant said yes
terday that he would not let Hussey
burn himself out. The youngster will
run no more this summer and will go
to camp to take things easy He will
not be allowed to go into the national
championships in Newark in August
that in spite of the urgings OF some of
his overzealous adherents.
Judging from the form shown by Carlo
F'igueroa, the Stuyvesant negro, In the
furlong. broad jump and high jump he
will have to be reckoned with IN all
future competitions in this section. If
Figueroa goes on to college he ought
to develop into a star of the first magni-
tude. He. has the fnakings of a re-
markable 220 yard sprinter and he
ought to be a champion IN the broad
jump. He did 5 feet IL inches In the
high jump, and Major of De Witt Clin-
ton had to leap to a new record of 6 feet
to beat him.
