Store Ne,os Of Today
By Ethel M. Parks
A Garden of Flowers-right in
our Trimming Department. They
have just come out and are in full
bloom.
Every new kind that was opened
brought forth exclamatious of de-
light, so | can't refrain from tell
ing you about them.
Orange blossoms-in wreaths
and by the dozens for the Spring
bride and her wedding gown.
Lovely, dainty white things.
Lilies of the Valley in punches
which may be woven into the
wreaths for the May Procession
and adorable little wreaths all
made up for this purpose.
Huge white gardenias-for the
corsage.
Roses, in all the beautiful colors
-singly and in groups, and some
combined with silver.
Chrysanthemums, in white and
yellow, SO natural it is hard to be-
lieve they are not real.
Sweet peas, in all the lovely
natural coiors are quite the newest
arrival, and worn on the left
shoulder of the evening gown
gives it the very latest French
touch.
And the last, but the most i'm
portant surely, are the pure White
Carnations to be worn for Mothers
day. Better than the real ones for
that purpose, because they will
keep fresh and bright the whole
day.

CURTAIL 0LYMPICS,
 LIKES OLDEN DAYS
Leader in Swedish Athletics Would Change Program Of Games

Stockholm, Aug. 2, - A radical
 change in Inc programs Of Olympic
 games to a pattern more resembling
 that Of the original olympies in an'
 cient Greece, involving reduction Of
 the number of contests 10 sa. Is urged
 by Erik Bergyull, director of the
 Olympic stadium in stockholm, and
 well known leader in Swedish ath- leties.
 Mir Berg,all attaches paramount
 importance 10 the power ot the olym-
 pic games 10 strengthen the feeling of solidarity among nations. as the olympics in ancient Greece helped 10 bind together the states. but he points out that it Is becoming increasingly difficult for smaller nations 10 particl- pate OH the large scale which the modern games demand. The ancient games lasted only five days and there were only l5 or 16 events on the pros gram. while the modern games last for months and have had all the way from 1OS to 390 events.
 The Swedish expert grants that cli- mate and other physical circumstances makes it necessary for various nations to develop sports more or less peculiar to themselves, and in which they would naturally be expected to win the highest prizes, hence it would not be fair to cut the program down to the ancient limits. Yet, allowing for this variety, he thinks the number of events could be reduced to 29.
 The ideal program. according to Mir. Bergvsll. is as follows: Running, 100, 400, 1,500, and 5000 meter races: hurdles one event: high jump, broad jump, pole vault, javein, discus shotf hammer, pentathlon, decathlon, wrest- ling, in five classes, gymnastic drill, | swimming, 100, 200, 500. 1.500 meter | races; boxing in five classes.
 MT. Bergval objects to team con- tests for economic reasons. This would eliminate football, relay teams, etc. He would omit rowing and sail ng contests because it is virtually i'm possible to find a place for perfor- nance which would offer fair condi- tions to all competitors. He recom- mends leaving out all winter sports, line in which the Swedcs themselves excel, and further thinks that motor races, bicycle races. golf shooting, ten his and weight lifting have no proper place in an Olympic program.

 Jersey City

New York, Aug, s,-Renny Leonard, worlds lightweight champion will meet Mickey Walker, welterWeight champion in ifieen-rannd decision bout al inc Yankee stadium on the night of August 90, the promoters an. nounced yesterday, Walkers welter- weight title will be at stake, The or iginal date or the bout had been Aug. nst sl, but no site had been named, In the event Of rain on the goth, the match will go on at the stadium on tho night Of August ?s.
 Tex Riekard and Jimmy Johnston met at the offices Of the New York state athletic commission. and agreed that Johnson should promote the match. but that Rickard would retain an interest in the bout.
 Tho new arrangement makes it necessary for Leonard and Walker 10 either sign new contracts with John ston or to assign the contracts al- ready made with Rickard to John ston. No trouble is expected in this direction, and there seems 10 be no question of the bout going through under the new arrangement.
 Johnston offered the use of the Yankee Stadium to Rickard for the Wills-Firpo bout at any time during the month Of September, but Rlckard says no change will be made in the original plan 10 hold this match at Boyle's Thirty Acres, Jersey City, N. J.
 Not Italian Jack
 Leo Flynn, manager of Jack Re- nauIt, also appeared before the com- Renault last week boxed in Providence, his opponent being as Italian Jack Herman. He was in reality Mike Nestor. Re- naut knocked him out and the an- nouncement was made after the | knockout that Italian Jack Herman | had been knocked out by Rcnault. | This was unfair 10 Herman, Flynn | said, but claimed Renault did not | know Herman and was in no way | As the bout occurred | in another state, the commission took 10 action.

Hornsby, Natl League Champ, Bids Fair To Shatter Hans Wag- ner's Record Lead. ing Hitters And Base Stealers.
By me Ass. lsted PEsss.

By The Associated Press, 1 Chicago, Aug, a,-kirst sin runs score. the circuit drivers in total bases among the hitters. and fYt in the hearts of baseball fans f, "Bsbe" Ruth, king of home run hiiters, who now promises 10 surpass his record of 1921 by which he established hlm- self as the best home run hitter Of all time. That year he smashed out 57 four baggers. and crowned him self champion of champions.
 This season. tho "Bamhino" in July. broke his best previous mark for home runs gathered in one month. when he cracked out his fourteenth against the White Sox in Chicago. Ruth has 8 homers com pared with n mark of s7 the year his record was made.
 a8 in 99 Games
 The great Yankee slugger scored 90 in 9s games he has played. an average of one run game. and has made 12o hits, gain of eleven in seven games, for n total of 259 bases. His batting average was boosted five points in the past week, and today he Is topping the hi;ters with a mark of 1884.
 Ruth does not always get chance to hit the ball, as he has a record of drawing 9o freertickets to first, or an average of one base on balls per game.
 archdeacon Also Leader
 Maurice Archdcacon, of the White Sox, said to be the fastest man in spiked shoes. has been playing regu- larly since his return and is tied with Ruth in the averages, but had par ticipated in only 55 games. Bib Talk, another White Sox star, has again issued challenge to Ruth, and advanced 15 points in his average. He is the real trailer to Ruth with a mark of .379, with Jamieson. of Cleveland, holding down third place with .S43.
 Eddie Collins, captain of the White soX. is leading the base stealers with 30, an increase of four. Much of Collins success in pilfering bases lies in his judgment more than his speed, although age does not seem to have slowed him down to any appreciable extent.
 Other leading batters for so or more games: Goslin, Washington, .341; Sheely Chicago, $40: Cobb, Detroit. 33s; F. Collins. Chicago. .337; Boone, Boston. .Ss5: Heilmann. Detroit. BPS Speaker.

Peck Praises Blucge

"lIe is one of tse greatest fleldcrs have ever seen" is the tribute Peck pays Bluege. Fast on his feet, own- ing a good arm and the possessor of wonderful pair of hands, Bluege has great future as shortstop. I would like to be starting my major league career with his chance to be- come a star" says Peck.
 Bluege is doing well enough at third but prefers shortstop. However. with peckinpaugh at his best, Bluege will probably be assigned 10 third until the veteran starts to slip.
 "I have tho two best shortstops in the business" says Manager Harris. "For the next 10 years Washington, barring accidents, should have no worries about that position"
 The passing of the brilliant Peckin- p1ugh merely means the arrival of the sensational Bleuge.
