They appear. so good that Pete
might be pardoned for looking be-
yond the Capital City Association
competition and laying his plans
for a more important event, in
which the association winner will
meet the inter-league champion for
the city championship.
And in CHANGING that far into the
future. the Knickerbock manager
may see a problem.
Ies this wise. The Fashion
Shop team, pennant winner in
the COMMERCIAL League, looms as
the winner of the pOst-seasOn
inter.leagle series, which opens
next. Monday. .It looks like
;, smooth sailing for the Fashion
Shop. which is an all-Star club
that will compete against teams
limited in their choice of talent.
The Fashion Shop, composed of
carefully selected stars, will battle
the champions OF closed leagues.
This doesn't seem fair and the
Commercial League next year may
be classified differently if it re-
tains its present constitution.
Yep, the ifiter-league series ray
be regarded as little more than
'set up" for Fashion Shop and Ha-
ley, it is widely reckoned, can well
night count on meeting the Haber-
dashers in the grand finale of the
sand1ots-the Capital City Associ-
alton champion VS.. the jnter-league
titlewinner.

 Dion Titheradge. English play writer and actor, was welcomed to America last evening at Parsons theater, Hartford. when he present. ed his three act play, Loose Ends" for the first time on this side of the Atlantic. The welcome was warm and left no doubt in the mind of MT. Titheradse that his first American audience liked his work
 Loose Ends" appeared in Lon don last season to such good ad- vantages that Sam H. Harri. de- cided to bring 1t, and Mir. Tither- adge, to the United States It is believed that his enterprise will be suitably rewarded because Loose | Ends" is the kind of an entertain ment which should enjoy a long run. But nowhere, perhaps, will 1t | receive a more cordial reception than it did at Parsons. The au- dience, composed of a large part Of Greater Hartford's elite, expressed | it's appreciation in seven curtain | calls at the end of the second act, while demands for a speech by the | author were successful in bringing 1 MT. Titheradge before the foot lights to voice his thanks. This is a story Of man who re- turns to England after Is years in Australia and Is obviously out of | step with modern life. He is amazed at the present day girl. her liking for cigarettes and cocktails and her frank discussion Of sub jects which belonged in the ad- f vance1 biology class at college i when he left home. His tribulators begin when he falls in love with and marries 6 successful actress whc. despite her love, cannot ad- just her manner of living 10 his ] viewpoint. This Is accomplished by q tragedy which falls like a grim shadow over their lives, the work
 ing out of which is cleverly con- ceived by the author and cleverlv executed hy the cast.
 To Violet fleming and Molly keF fall the honors in their SUD- port of Mir. Titheradge. Miss Brad shaw and Mir. Braddell, as repre- sentativcs of the modern happer Of both sexes, deserve special mention as do Miss Britt and Mr. Quarter | maine.
 Loose Ends Is deceiving at the
 beginning. It seems as if 1t is to
 be a play in which nothing more important takes place than the consumption Of huge quantities Of cigarettes and liquor by a crowd Of Bohemians. But pretty quick il develops into drama of most in triguing quality.
 Loose Ends is scheduled 10 make it's bow to a New York au- dience next week.
 A matinee will be given at Par sons theater tomorrow afternoon and the final Hartford presentation

SIX RULINGS ARE
ANNOUNCED ON
INCOME RETURNS

Six important rulings relating to
income that is entitled to the %
per cent reduction under the earned
income schedule We're received from
Washington yesterday by Collector
Of Internal Revenue Rex b. Good
cell.
In the ease of an accounting firm
employing assistants it is held that
the profits derived from the work
cannot be classed as earned income
and the owners of the firm in max
ing their returns caDnot consider
the profits as earned income, unless
the net income of each owner is
less than 5000.
Profit derived from the sale of a
patent or mine is not earned in
come. If, however, the only income
reported by the taxpayer is profit
from such a source, the first $1,000
may be treated as earned income.
Wages received by a minor son,
and turned over to his father, does
not constitute earned income III re
porting the father income.
Income taxes assessed on the sal
aries OF federal judges, both after as
well as before retirement, are il
legal and refundable.
Where u state, either directly or
through board of trustees control
led by the state, operates public
library, it is engaged in the dis
charge of i sovereign rather than a
proprietary activity, and the com
pensatlon paid to employees of the
library is exempt from tax.
Where the board of regents of a
state university employs an archi-
tect for term of years on per
centage bass, the amounts paid
inc architects are not exempt IRON
1eueraI tax.
