Captain Wood, Veteran Hurler.
Showed Fine Form And
Avenged Lacing Given Him
BY Uncle Sans Wards In
Contest Here Last Season.
MoUNTAINEERS GOT IL
HARD DRIVES OFF KELLY

Playing in prime form, after
uncertain performances in the
last few games, the baseball
team of West Virginia Univer-
sity jolted the midshipmen Sat
urday, winning a we'll played and
interesting game by 3 to l.
Wood, who went to the hill for the
Mountain boys, had all sorts of stuff
on the ball and the middies could do
nothing with him until the ninth
when they got a brace of bingles,
which with as many errors gave them
their only tally OF the game. Until
that inning, Wood had been backed
up in superb style On his own ac-
count, he accepted eight chances,
some of them hard to handle. He
easily had the advantage over Kelly
in hurting, forcing batsmen to fan.

and Kelly none. On the other hand
Kelly was touched up for IL clean
singles. Except for the Harvard game,

Each Faced Other Last Year
The opposing hurlers also faced
each other last season, but the story
was entirely different. Last year the
Middies pounced on Wood in the first
session for six hits, and runs, but
tailed only one more after that. The
final count then was 9 to 2. Wood
was virtually the main show in Sat-
urday's fracas, although Devaugn
played a brilliant game at the hot
corner for the visitors. The Navy
infield also pulled off some fine per-
formances at stages.
How Runs Were Scored

scribed today by American Minister
Schurman in the first official reports
to reach the State Department re-
garding the kidnapping of a number
of passengers on the Shanghai-Pekin
express near the Shantung border.
Minister Schurman's report was
dated midnight, May 6, at Tsinan-Fu

serious" A paraphrase, made public
by the state department, read:

"Ont of 26 foreigners, 10 were held

u. S. Bricks Have
New Connection

For the first time during the
business career of anyone cow
manufacturing brick, some competi-
ton is felt from foreign-made brick
This is apparent so far only
in the New York market, where
considerable quantities OF brick
from Germany and Holland are
reported to be coming in. II is
stated that these bricks can be
purchased on board ship at Ger
man and Holland ports for $500
a 1000. 1t is apparent at once
that American manufacturers can
not compete with this low produc-
ton cost even after transportation
and handling on this side of the
ocean has been absorbed. This
competition is not likely TO reach
far inland, but would affect Allan
tic ports unless the American
manufacturers in those locations
find some protection.
American-made brick IL still pre-
ferred by the builders in New York
and is in demand even at a higher
price than the foreiSnmade brick.

JERUSALEM ADOPTS
CITY PLAN IDEA

Modern city planning isn't at all
limited to cities Of the Western
world. The ancient city of Jerusa-
lem is soon to come under a city
plan, the workings of which will be
watched with interest by town
planners in and out of the National
Association Of Real Estate Boards.
Prof. Patrick Geddes, of Edinburgh,
has made the study Of replanning
the Holy City for modern habita-
ton. A wide road is to be built
through the city and a new garden
suburb is to be developed on each
side, where students, scientists and
pilgrims may reside under modern
ideas of sanitation. according to the
plan expected soon to become an
accomplished fact. Much attention
is being paid to the rebuilding and
sanitary improvement of the old
city. Jerusalem officially adopted
town planning several years ago.
