SPORT NEWS

This has been a big week in Mary
land Class ID base ball, made so by
the visit of Ban Johnson, chief eXecu-
tive of the American League, the big
show in professional base ball. He
first paid the Blue Ridge League a call
and then came across the Bay to sec
the other representative of Class D
organizations.
Crowds turned out to see him, and
he was feted just as his position in
the sporting world demands. Ban had
"run-in" with Judge Lands some
time ago, and came out little the
second best, but he still is one of the
big men in the national pastime, and
it goes without saying, if he can ever
get Judge Lands "on the hip" his
judgeship will experience nasty fall.

Washington and Philadelphia are
still close together in their fight for
the American flag, but the Athletics
manage to keep a point or two in the
lead. New York in the Nationals,
seems to be slipping and it looks now
as if Pittsburg would cop the bunting.
There is a big chance of thorough
housekeeping in both the New York
teams next season. The "big town.
can't afford to lag behind, and 1926
will probably see many new face in
the lineup of these two teams.

In three departments Of sport, as
pirants for championship honors re-
ceived unexpected set-backs within
the last ten days: Willie Hoppe was
beaten at billiards by the German
Hegenlacher; William Tilden ii, was
beaten at tennis by New England
college student; and Knockout
CLANCY was put to sleep in 50 sec
onds by Danny Kramer.
All three Of these losers appear to
be "slipping" somewhat. The press is
beginning to note let-up in the dash
ing, slashing, accurate drives of Til
den at the net; Hoppe is no longer the
"boy billiardist," but has given ground
to many competitors; and George
CLANCY is failing to chit 'em hard
enough to fall" any more, 1t may be
that Tilden's legs are failing; that
Hopes vision of angles is less keen;
and that Chaney's fists lack the quon-
dam steam, which has sent many on a
voyage to dreamland. 1t is the old
story of "youth will be served" and
no one will be surprised if these for
mer masters Of their particular line
soon take their places with the great
army Of "has beens."

team. Many can recall the days Of
the old team of stars, and, what hap
pened to the sport when Boston beat
them out for the flag. The game died
in Baltimore so far as the Majors are
concerned. Efforts have been made
since to secure a franchise in the big
show, but the moguls have fought shy
of the Maryland metropolis; she has
to be satisfied with a berth in the
Minors And perhaps Dunn is afraid
it will sour on the present team as it
did on the old, and that the fans
would not support even a minor ag
gregation. Therefore he wants to head
the procession as it has been proven
Baltimore will not support losing
club.
1t is doubtful, tho, that a monopo-
ly of pennant winning is beneficial to
any league. The fans in other cities
should be considered land other man.
ayers should make more strenuous
opposition to the Baltimore leader.
The six teams in the International
seem able to win from the Maryland
bunch but not consistently enough to
haul them down very long from their
roosting place at the top. There is
something in the managership, and
Dunn is a sly old bird when it comes
to judging and handling players.
Miss Gertrude Ederle, true to her
feminine instinct is hesitating to
throw herself into the arms of old
King Neptune. Perhaps she does not
like his cave man tactics with some
of her sisters who have ventured to
yield to his embraces, and she is wait
ing to catch him in a different mental
and physical attitude before she con-
sents to visit his watery palace. She
would be more sensible if she refused
his advances Gin toto" She would
have small chance to see her friends
again if he developed an angry mood;
so, if she is careful of her future well
fare she will tell the Monarch of the
Seas to press his suit in any direction
but hers, and close her ears to all his
wooing.
The Delmarvia League is giving
some interesting sport to the fans of
Snow Hill, Newark, Chincoteague, and
Princess Anne. 1t is also getting in
line with the Eastern Shore League
by staging a fight against playing ma
terial outside of its class. Princess
Anne is the alleged offender in this
respect; but, inasmuch as the League
is not playing under the rules of or
ganized ball, it is little difficult to
see what can be done about it. OF
course an agreement providing for
this eventuality might have been
drawn up before the schedule began;
if so, then it can be made operative.

puted, which enjoy the celebrity of
not admitting everybody" Put It
that they are overrun with already
known guests of our best people"
and are very careful with respect
to other applicants. They are the
Ritz, the Plaza -Athenee and the
Meurice. The last two are extremely
quiet, but top-line expensive, all the
same.
Surely, it is curious that the Meu-
rice was, in his day, the cheap ho-
tel in Paris which the poet. Long
fellow wrote so much about in his
letters as young man, "agreeablJ

Longfellow lived at the Hotel Meu,

The Meurice in those days had no

vator. Lamb was staying there with
his aunt; but now and then of eve

They were waXed and slippery.
Later, when the Meurice became

A CONSIDERABLE Paris topic is
the American dentists. French
dentists complain that, once again.

while even in the watering places
they live free in the most fashionable
hotels during the season, with a nota-
BILE cash bonus, advertised as an at

France had put UP the bars. pretty
high, against newcoming American
dentists; but the war admitted "a
certain number" against whom.
nevertheless. there was no great kick
among French dentists.
How refuse to let those men take
their practicing license, when they
had notoriously made new jaws for
SO French soldiers, furnishing their
own silver? But. as time passed

Paris boulevard, at last!
She point of junction is spacious and

boulevard rejuvenated-just where
Robert Fulton built his Panorama!
Paris talks about the Passage des
Panoramas-will 1t become fashion
able again? 1t is a long arcade. 1t is
high-roofed with glass, and full of
shops which have become rather an

place in Paris.
Did you know that the illustrious
American inventor. Robert Fulton.
built the first parorama-to raise
money to make his steamship demon
strations in the river Seine, before the
eyes of Napoleon?
Coming abroad as a painter pupil
of Benjamin West), Fulton was the
Paris guest of the rich American Joel
Barlow. With immense energy, while
constructing his steamship, he built
on this spot of the boulevard the first
of those great circular panorama edi-
fees which everybody knows today.
1t was a panorama of Rome and
Jerusalem To do the painting he
employed the artist Provost and his
student Decentralization of the
daguerreotype and all photography!
And Fulton made enough money from
the speculation to operate successfully
a steamboat on the Seine, the date
being August 10, 1903.
Other spectators used the success
of Fulton's Panorama to construct the
Passage des Panoramas beside 1t,
which still exists.
And now, again, the historic old ar
cade becomes smartly situated by
reason of the vast street improvement
which opens a direct line from 1t to
the Arc de Triomphe. Yet the Passage
des Panoramas remains, all the same.
on "the" Paris boulevard, rejuyenated!
Two great inventors started 1t to-

navigation, and Daguerre, inventor of
photography!
CURIoUSLY, the famous old Paris

the center of other immense real es-

The house itself, of course, will be
