of the Colonial Law where it is Incumbent

even at that. for what we have seen 10

Turning to the expenditure side OF the
budget which is most interesting 10
members YOU will see general headings
Of c0nsumabIe articles and hon. eXpend-
able articles. That's q new departure.
The Municipal C0mmittse suggested TO
Government that any item under these
headings calling for more than Frs. LOGO
should be specified in detail, but believe
the time has been too short Tor them 10
have done So. However, | have been IN
formed by Government that a central
purchasing office will be established and
all expenditures over $40 will have TO be
approved by the purchasing officer so as
to insure a more economic and staDIlized
system.

Whal IS happening today is, the budget

after those estimates We're passed upon
by the Municipal Committee the budget
was printed and presented, and the bud

ARGENTINES PICKED

PARIS, June 2s.-With the Olympic
polo competition opening today at ST.
Cloud Park, where the United States
plays France, L'Auto's expert takes
the occasion to canvass the chances
of the five nations entered in the
event. Argentina, he thinks, should
finish first, followed by the United
States, with Great Britain third,
Spain fourth and France last.
He admits that he hesitated some
what in forecasting the winner, not
having seen the Argentines in action,
as they have only been playing in
mixed matches, having, as he puts
it, wisely refused" to play the
Americans last Sunday. He is par

merits of the thirty-five ponies
brought over by the Argentines, be-
lieving they are superior to the
twenty-eight American mounts

she judged every stroke aside from
the skill with which she delivered

Their view is that IIenglen has out

What IS the hardest thing q
shortstof has to do'
Answered by
JOE SEWELL
Shortstop. Cleveland Indians: The
hardest hitting shOrtstOp in either
league. Batted 1853 last year.
In my opinion, the hardest play
for the shortstop is the slow-hit
ball with an average runner at the
plate. In order to complete the
play the shortstop must come in at
full speed, field the ball with both
hands and throw to a base while
off-balance. This makes the throw
very difficult. and results in causing
this to be the hardest play for the
shortstop to handle-and handle sue
cessfully. The next time you 60 to
a ball game watch the shortstop
particularly, and watch him handle
play like this. If he does it we'll
he is probably pretty good fielding
shortstop, because the play requires
great skill.

Hornsby has equaled the famous
record Of Honus Wagner, who led
the National League batsmen four
