The Sorrows Of "Big BILL

One may almost pity the sorrows Of
Big Bill" Thompson, mayor of Chi
cage. They have been accommodating
steadily for months. First came the
primary campaign In which his candi-
date for States attorney was over
whelned. The mayor had declared
that IL Grove was defeated he would
resign from his Office. He hung on TO
It. Perhaps now he wishes he had quit.
For little while ago court ruling

saving grace Of the situation from the
point Of view Of the average member
OF the community was that the gangs

manner destined TO strengthen the ties
that bind us TO Francel
Another interesting phase Of this case
Is the fact that, while form of cosii-
n,ercialisn acted TO bar Tilden from
the Davis Cup team and to cast a
shadow on his standing as an amateur,
another form Of commercialisn acts to
put him back on the team and restore
him to good standing. The French
built fine stadium especially to take
care OF the crowds that would come to
see the Davis Cup matches. Tildens
removal from the team cut the sale OF
tickets. 1t began to look as II the sta
dunn would not be filled. The French
wanted to see Tiiden more than they
wanted 10 see the Davis Cup matches.
So Mr.. Tilden is reinstated and the sta
dunn building may prove to have been
profitable, after all.
Amateur sportsmen have not been
soiled by commercialism as much as
sport.

Of q large stock farm there at the
sum of SO per month.
