TILDEN beaten
BY COCHET
BY F. A. wRAY

WIMBLEDON. England, July 8
S).-Henri Cochet and Jean
Borotra today assured France Of
the mems singles title in the VIM
bledon championships by respec-
lively eliminating Bill Ti!den ard
Bunny" Austin. the last hopes of
America and England, in the semi
finals.
Cochet won his way to the finals
by eliminating Tilden in straight
sets, -4,%,6---1, Us. Boratra de-
feated Austin S--1, los, 81, 81.
Neither Frenchman was extended
TO any great extent to win although
both Tilden and Austin staged re-
markable rallies.
The last of the Tilden match will
never be forgotten by those who
witnessed it. Here big Bill won
the hearts of the crowd by a bril-
liant rally, which though vain, dem
onstrated why for years he was
considered the best tennis player in
the world.
Tilden Gets Going
After Cochet, with robot like
steadiness had forged ahead to a
lead of five to one, Tilden suddenly
broke loose with a streak of super
tennis and won four successive
games to ever the set at five all.
The physical effort Of the rally
was too much, however, for him and
Cochet won the next two games
which gave him the set and match.
The spectators cheered Tilden for
several minutes after his spectacular
rally.
After a poor start, Austin played
brilliantly in the second and third
sets of his match with the Bound
ing Basque, "'but faded in the fourth
set and lost the match.
With the singles now an all.French
affair, Americas hopes now are
stored in the mems doubles and
women's singles, where Helen Wills
is regarded as a certain winner.

doubles, Cochet and Miss Eileen Ben

RULE IS
HIT

BUFFALO, N. Y, July 3.
Declaring that Washington af-
fords a spectacle Of traffic
chaos hardly eqnalled in any
city in America, the twenty
seventh annual convention Of
the American Automobile As
ISOLATION, in session here, went
on record in favor of the in-
stallation in the National Capt.
tai at the earliest possible mo-
ment Of the uniform left-hand
turn as recommended by the
Hoover uniform traffic code
and now IN effect in most pro
gressive communities.
The legislative committee Of the
national motoring body took up the
traffic situation in the District OF
Columbia ana pointed out that N.
stead Of leading the way, Washing
ton persists IN adhering to . funda-
mentally wrong prnicipis o9 traffic
regulation as far Is the left hand
turn II concerned
Censure Unanimous
Delegates from more than LOCO
A. A.. A. clubs in the United sta.ea
and Canada unhesitatingly concurr
in the report Of the committee and
by unanimous vote the resolution
of censure OF conditions in Wash.
ington was spread on the minutes
OF the meeting.
Washington was the only city
selected for special treatment.
The three delegates from the Dis
the conference-Theodore r. Noyess
George w. Offutt and Stanley Fl.
Homer heartily concurred in he
expression Of the convention in re.
gard to traffic regulation in the
city where the Hoover model code
was formulated, while delegates
from every section and from as far
away as the Pacific coast told q
the troubles of visiting motorists
with the traffic regulations Of the
National Capital.
Motorists Nightmare
Washington. said one delegata.
stands out as the worst traffic
nightmare in America from tbs
standpoint Of the visiting tourists.
Thousands are now avoiding the
city whenever possible. q sttuation
that results in q large loss OF
potential revenue.
Following is the text of the re-.
port of the legislative committee
which the conference unanimously
adopted:
Your committee regrets to report
the continued failure of, the Dis
trict of Columbia to follow the rec.
concentrations of that great body ne
traffic experts composing the
Hoover conference in regard to the
left-hand turn at automatic and
manually controlled intersections,
Washington, the Capital Of the
Nation, instead OF leading the way
for uniformity az it should. persists
in adhering to the fundamentally
wrong outside left turn on two
changes OF signals. and the ensus
ing confusion presents spectacle OF
traffic chaos that should no longer
be tolerated.
Offutt Reelected
your committee, therefore, earn
estly recommends that the Ameri-
can Automobile Association in this
convention place itself on record
for the uniform left hand turn in
the National Capital

OBSTRUCTION VERSUS CONSTRUCTION

The continued efforts of some of Wolf Points
neighbors to substitute opposition for cooperation,
and place themselves in a position based on nothing
which is fair, truthful, reasonable or economical,
furnish abundant material for editorial come-backs
and comments. We are convinced that fair, square
dealing and friendly cooperation by Wolf Point is
not appreciated. Bit how needless it is to ~expatiate.
Campaigns that are narrow and born of jealousy
rarely succeed and fall by their own weakness.
Aiding, in our small way, to upbuild a town that
aspires to grow through constructive effort in its own
behalf, rather than through tearing down the work
of others, keeps us too busy to have time to weave
sophistries and peddle misrepresentation. Blocking
the wheels of progress with spite may bring momen-
tary satisfaction and temporary results but ultimately
construction always outstrips obstruction as a COM
munity and county building policy. Our %neighbors
ought to try it.

SINFUL ~INsECTICIDE
(The st. Paul Dispatch)

Inc oL. 1 duA DAoPdbtAf
The weary peddler finding that
ieas murdered sleep in his hotel
room at Bardoli, India, murdered
the insects with powder and kero-
sene Citizens discovering the act
held a mass meeting to protest
against the wantOn slaughter.
They have appealed to the British
authorities and are sending a
d%eputation to wait on Ghandi to
have the flea bitten traveller pun
ished further.
Most of the people of Bardoli
are jams, who hold all life sacred
and believe in the transmigration
of souls. The sect is contempor-
aneous with Buddhism. Its found
err. Vardhamana, lived at the same
time as Buddha, about the sixth
century B. C. The jams hold that
the soul is an eternal entity pass
ing from one body to another up
and down the scale of the animal
kingdom. Hence the Jain pushes
a broom before him when he walks
lest he step upon life in any form
and strains water through a cloth
before drinking. The danger of
destroying a brother soul recast
in a lower form of life is ever
present and requires constant
vigilance to avoid.
Hence when a stranger comes
in and Stays a host of possible rel
atives there is righteous indigna-
ton. That the souls of fees thus
released may find better quarters
in the next incarnation ought to
be both likely and possible. But
the life generating Jain can not
see it in that light and appeals
to the government for punishment
of the murderer. Living a dogs
life in India would NEAR some
thing.

But whatever means is used must
be followed by 100 per cent of
those who own or are in posses

Graduating the dandelion along

Do not be deceived by a few
blossoms that smile up at you
In towns and cities especially, the
gay d%andelion, once established
in your plots is a disaster. A
disease as hard or harder to be
rid Of than the worst diseases of

and if ever a hungry bunch stood
in a mess line we had it. but after
Bud Wright and his able X. P's
got through handing out the
"beans" we all felt pretty good.
About Z o'clock it started to rain
and rained more or less for two
hours. Mr.. Schenkenberger had
planned on staying with the boys
that night and got over half way
ont, but the condition of the roads
was such that he had to return to
town. At nine-fifteen taps was
sounded and the camp was sup
posedly quiet.
Saturday morning at seven
o'clock, about two hours after al
most every one was up, %reveille
was sounded. We then had fifteen
minutes exercises. After cleaning
mp the grounds and fixing our
hunks we were ready for a baseball
game and swim. The wind was
blowing so hard that we could not
have band practice so we practic-
ed marching for about an hour,
after this more play and then din
ner. Meat loaf, stew, hot gravey
and bread. In the afternoon we
picked out a sheltered spot in the
grove and had about 80 minutes
band practice. Mess was blown
at six o'clock. Wieners, buns,
potato salad were passed out.
Everyone was so hungry that Mr..
Livingston asked our mess SER
geant, Wright if we fed only twice
a day, morning and evening, but
Bud told him, Nav, they're just
naturally hungry" Mr.. Living
son found this out later, when he
passed around a big box of marsh
mellows to be toasted on the camp
fire. Taps was sounded at nine
fifteen and camp was fairly quiet.
Mr., Foor was in charge of the
camp that night.
Sunday the weather turned so
bad we decided to break camp,
and the picnic had to be called
off. In spite of the weather all
the band showed up at school
Monday morning proclaiming a
wonderful time at the encampment
and looking toward to next year
when all hope the weather will
be in our favor.
