The United States Capitol the seat of govern

tectural beauty No other capitol in the world can
compare with it, 1t is in class by ITSELF
So, too, is Electric Cookery outstanding in
a class by itself! No other cooking fuel can give
you such efficiency that waste of heat is almost non
existent such economy that the cost of operation
for the average family is less than So per month.
In addition, consider its dependabity, its speed,
GOODNESS, cleanliness healthfulness and its COM
pletely automatic operation. A combination of all
these features in one cooking method seems almost
impossible . yet you get them all in Electric
Cookery. That's why it is outstanding in a
class by itself! You can easily convince yourself
by inspecting the new Electric Ranges now being

NEGRO FLYER RATED.
AMERICAS FASTEST.
Notre Dame Coach Predicts
Great Triumph for Mar
quette Student.
BY CHARLES DUNKLEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

- HICAGO, May Ralph
Metcalfe, 81 year -old
" Negro lad from Chicago,
promises to be the sprint
ing sensation of the 1882 Olympic
games.
That was a prediction today of
John Nicholson, Notre Dame track
coach, after watching Metcalfe,
the flying ebony Of the cinder path,
dig his powerful legs into the turf
at the Drake relays Saturday to
tie the world record of 0:09.5 in
winning the 100-yard dash with
2 yards to spare.
"Metcalfe really is good Nicholson
observed. II look for him to beat all
of them. Eddie Tolan, Frank Wyckoff
and George Simpson have had their
day, but Metcalfe is just coming, his
chances appear excellent to become a
sensation in the Olympics at Los An
geles next July
THE Chicago youth, running his first
A year VI COll6SldI6 COI1DtJIIlOH 1OI
Marquette University, is an amaz-
ing sprinter. 1t used to be that he had
trouble in getting of with a terrific
burst of speed but he seems to have
overcome that and now gets away like
a shot
He is just 81, 5 feet IL inches tall
and weighs 180 pounds. He has a mar
velous pair of legs, with 1.-THE calves
and powerful thighs that drive him over
the ground like a scared rabbit.
Metcalfe learned his foot racing
while attending Tilden High. in Chi
cago. He is a national interscholastic
record holder for the 100 and 220 yard
dashes.
CINCE his prep days he has improved
~ remarkably having conquered Tolan,
another Negro sprinter, who holds
the accepted world record of 9.5 sec
onds. and also has taken the measure
of Simpson, the former Ohio State
flyer.
Metcalfe is a modest youth and shares
the comradeship of his competitors.
They loose no time in grasping his
hand in congratulating him on his VIC
tories. He is working his way through
Marquette. Part of his job is acting as
assistant trainer for the foot ball squad.

WOMEN ELATED
OVER REPEAL
PROPOSAL
By PAULINE NORTON sABIN


Leader Of women's Authorization
Movement
(Written Especially for International
News Service)
Copyright. 1882. by International News
Service
CHICAGO, June 30.-Members
of the Women's Organization for
National Prohibition Reform feel
they have had a great victory
in the adoption of plank
pledging the Democratic party to
support straight repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment.
Find Right Nominee
But there is more to be done.
1t is now important for delegates
to support candidate who can
be elected, a candidate whose
record in public life has been
such as to command confidence
and respect because of his stabil-
ity and trustworthinesS man
whose conduct has been directed
by conscience and conviction,
rather than by mere political
expediency.
With a candidate possessing
these qualities, and plank for
straight repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment, the Democratic party
can win at the polls next No
Nember.
From the very beginning of the
convention it was obvious that
the plank would at least submit
the question of repeal to the
people, and that alone would have
been a triumph for anti-prohi-
bitionistS.
Sees No Evasion
But they have gone even
further. No quibbling-no eva
sion-honest, straightforward re-
peal of the Eighteenth Amend
ment and immediate modifica-
ton of the Volstead act is their
plank.
I believe this news will do more
to cheer the people of this coun-
try than anything which has hap
pened in the United States in
many moons.
