LUXOR, Egypt.
A MONG the articles recently

they appear to be the first evi.

day Of the manner in which the
Pharaohs illuminated their pal
aces. One candlestick had the
wick still in it, seemingly made
of twisted linen, though the fabric
was too fragile for close examina-
ton.
1t is not absolutely certain that
the candlesticks were used for
interior decoration. One theory
suggests that these objects were
possibly used as emblems in re-
ligious ceremonies. The Copts
today use a torch not dissimilar.
There were also brought out
two boxes, one made of rushes
and very frail, and the other of
ebony inlaid with ivory. The
former, which seemed to be still
sealed, is about a foot square and
six inches high, the latter about
sixteen inches square and eight
inches high. 1t contained rolls of
some sort, though apparently not
papyri. With the exception Of the
candlesticks, this mornings re-

BILLY EVANS SAYS

Pitching has become q serious prob
lem in the major leagues. Not team
in either the National or American
League is willing to stand pat on its
pitching staff. The various scouts
now out in search for promising ma
terial have been instructed to pay
particular attention TO the pitchers
and not pass up any pitcher who looks
at all worth while.
For. some years the advantage has
been with the batters by wide mar
gin. The supremacy the pitchers once
held was swept away when all trick
deliveries were placed under the bal.
This made for an entire change in
pitching on the part of great many
big leaguers.- Some of the pitchers
found it impossible to adapt them
selves to new style and passed out.
Others met with varying success in
adhering TO the new Jules.
With the passing of the spitball and
all forms of trick deliveries also came
the ban on soiling the ball or the use
of resin to help dry the hands and
help the pitcher get firmer grip on
the ball. The rules called for the aboli.
ton of any and all foreign substances
and resin was placed in the list. For
years great many pitchers have used
resin Without it they were unable to
get their old-time grip on the ball, and
in throwing a curve, the hold secured
on the ball means everything in the
break.
But even that wasn't enough. In
order to give the fans more batting
the so-called ''lively BALI was adopt
ed. This ball is lively because it is a
superior ball in every way from the
cork center TO the cover. The result
of all these changes Produced an orgy
of smuggling in which the supremacy of
the pitcher has passed entirely. Tho
batter now enjoys wide margin OF
advantage in his clash with the pitch
er.
The batters went even farther in
their effort to hold the advantage.

GOLF WITH ONE ARM
Funk Joins Reilly in Ranks OF Men
Who Star Despite Handicap.

Chicago, Sept. 15.-Physical handi-
caps mean nothing to the enthusiastic
golfer.
Loss of an arm, for instance, does
not mean that player cannot be-
come proficient in golf.
Eddie Reilly, n Chicago pro, VINO
has been playing the game for ten
years, plays in the seventies. Some
years ago he suffered the loss Of his
right arm. ,All his golfing is done
with the left arm, although he as
sumes the stance of right-hander.
Four years ago he played the Mar
quette Park course in II, his best
score.
To even W for this extraordinary
play on the part Of Il One-arined
professional. the amatur ranks pre-
sent John Funk of FL Reno, Okla.
Funk, while not claiming the low
scores that Reilly is able to attain,
plays Il highly creditable game.
The par for the Ell Reno course
is -, and Funk always plays it be-
tween so and So. While Funk plays
well from the tee, his best shots are
the approach and putt.

FLY WHEEL MAGNET0 IS
 BASIS OF LEGAL ACTION
Former Ford Employe, Alleged ,In- ventor, Asks s2.50 For Each
 One Now in Use

New Orleans. Dee. 4.-The fly wheel magneto, a device known wherever the products of Henry Ford are used. is the bone Of contention in a damage suit for s1i,0Oo,0oo, ramifcation of which is to be heard in the federal circuit court Of appeals here today. The suit was brought by Edward s, Huff, formerly an engineer of the Ford Motor company but now a resi-. dent Of Miami, Fla.
 Huff claims to have invented the magneto while in the employ Of the Ford Motor company and asserts he was to have received a royalty Of s2.50 for each one used. When he filed his suit in the federal court at Miami last year he calculated he was due slf.000.o 900. The Ford defense is that the inventor was paid sio,0oo as a reward for developing the com trivance and that there was no agree ment specifying royalty.
 The case goes before the court at the instance Of the Ford company on an appeal from a ruling Of Federal District Judge Henry D. Clayton at Jacksonville, Fla. several months ago that the main issues could he tried before jury.
