CHARLIE MAY RUIN
AMATEUR. STATUS

BOSTON. April 2l.-The telegraph
vote taken by the Amateur Athletic
union registrations committee has
been virtually completed shows
titude of the officers of the Amateur
Athletic union and the American
Olympia commission, in advising
American athletes to remain away
from European competition this year,
lest they jeopardize their amateur
standing and weaken the Olympic
team next year. This announcement
was made today by President William
C. Prout of the Amater Athletic union
in statement in which he referred
to the reported action of Charles w.
Paddock of the University of South :
ern California in leaving for Paris
to run in meet there.
LAS far as the trip of Charles w.
Paddock to France is concerned
said Mr.. Prout, mo action has been
taken by the national registration
commission. Paddock informed the
officials that it was his intention to
go to France, whether a permit was
granted or not"
From information furnished by
Paddock. it appears that the meet is
not conducted by the University OF
Paris, but is conducted by some pri :
vate organization. The officials OF
the Amateur Athletic union are fear
ful that Paddock will PROFESSIONALISM
himself for the Olympic games of
1924. and il would seem that there is
some likelihood that this may be one
of the results of this trip.

to go 10 sweden: a water polo team
that was to tour the European con-
tinent: three girl swimmers and John

The world court and the League of

arrived with the latest message from
Geneva, Representative VIII A. Wood
Of Indiana, chairman of republican,
Congressional campaign committee,
called at the White House and ad-
vised the President to abandon the
world court proposal, warning that
it would produce a party schism.
But Harding stuck by his guns and
intimated he Will soon answer his
critics publicly. AS stated in these
dispatches few days back, the
President intends to demand men,
bership in the court regardless of the
opposing pressure within his own
party.
Lord Robert Cecil signalzed his
arrival here with the announcement
that the League of Nations is ready
to listen with an open mind to any
proposals made by the United States.
This gives the league reservationists
a large handle to grab at. The pros
poets are that they will make much
of Lord Roberts statement. Among
the guests at a dinner given to Lord
Robert Friday night, was Senator

CHICAGO. April 2o.-"Every man

This is the motto of the Rev.
Father Charles De Heredia. Mexican
priest, and an instructor of Spanish
at Holy Cross college, Worcester,
Mass. who has become known as
Americas champion ghost-buster.
Father de Heredia thinks ghosts
ought to be as common around the
house for enterta inment OF the chill
dren and neighbors as monographs
or pianos. and far more common than
automobiles. Spiritualsm. he be-
lieves, teaches and demonstrates, is
just so much legerdemain.

show that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

similar works were genuinely made

Instead of having to see the old

BURY SpOOks.
Father de Heredia answers Conan
Doyle's charge that his spooks are
too bury with the assertion that
anyone who wants to make them
clear cut need Just put on a little
more paint"
II believe Conan Doyle is abso-
lutely sincere. but that he is the
victim of charlatans." the priest said
That is the trouble with men like
Conan Doyle. The more intelligen.
they are, the easier they are duped
Still. somewhat paradox cally
Father de Heredia doesn't deny the
possible existence of ghosts, spirit

he admitted. "And ghosts? Who
