NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The big
gest indoor track and field show
in the history of American athletics
was slated for Madison Square
Garden this afternoon and to-
night, with ATS of the best men
and women athletes of the United
States and Canada competing for
national championships, under aus
pices of the Amatehur Athletic
union.
Two hundred girls were compet-
ing at the Garden this afternoon.
and a capacity crowd of 1900 was
expected to jam in tonight to
watch 275 men battle for titles. It's
the first time that national cham
pionships for men and women have
been conducted at the same arena.
Six records seemed likely to be
shattered during the Is events on
the mems program.
Eight indoor champions who won
their titles a year ago are on hand
to defend them.
The events in which worlds in
door records were expected to be
broken were the 60-meter dash,
15O0-meter run, pole vault, 65-meter
hurdle, 600-meter run and 1900
meter medley relay.
In the 60-meter dash, feature
event, a new record seemed almost
certain, with the three "fastest
humans" of the board tracks en-
tered-Ralph Metcalfe of Mar
quette, Emmett TOPPING of New
Orleans and Ed Siegel of New York.
They will be pressed by such run
ners as Frank Wycoff of Califor-
mia and Ira Singer of New York.

Pinch Hitting for Henry McLemore
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 25. Mem
phis Bill Terry, manager and first
Sacker of the New York Giants,
should be-by every known means
of reckoning-a very merry fellow,
chock full of muscle straining
laughs and light-hearted humor.
He hit somewhere in the vicinity
of $50 last season, and that's good
even in the Baja California league,
and ne managed to drag the Gil
ants out of last place, where some
unkind people thought they be-
longed.
Next he traded off Freddy Lind
strom, who somehow figured he was
the logical successor to John j.
McGraw at Giant bossing and then
he shed his big base-running prob
lem by passing Shanty Hogan on
to the Boston Braves.
He arrived for spring training
in Southern California and found
that Travis Jackson's legs were fit
to carry him through tough year
OF SnOfC-SUOpplng.
Surely Memphis Bill Terry's horn
was filled to overflowing, so, when
he finished telling about how he
needed more pitching strength this
year and how his team was young
and untried, it was suggested he
tell a few funny spring training
stories.
"There's going to be nothing
funny about our spring training, >
said Memphis Bill, "it's very Sc
riouS business"
'Yes, it's serious all right, but
can't you tell story about some
rookie that talked about joining
the 'Jernts' or something like
that?"
II don't believe in that silly
stuff" said Memphis Bill, taking
new grip on his cigar.
mot anything silly, Mr.. Terry?
Somthing whimsical like Charlie
Grimm said. He's going to make
the Cubs chase goats all over Cata-
lima island, he says Can't you tell
something like that one?"
Nav" said the cold-eyed Terry
II don't believe in any of that
nutty stuff"
Shanty Hogan, who weighs a bit
more than a man should and bit
less than an elephant does and
whose slowness on the bases is pro-
verbal, was the last chance.
Getting rid of Hogan, ha, ha,
takes a big load off the Giants,
doesn't it
81 don't get you," said Terry.
well, won't you miss Hogans
base-running ability this year?"
Nav" said Memphis Bill, "Ho-
gan wasn't any good on the base
paths"

Gambling Debts

THE NEW SPIRIT

MS great country of ours has very
evidently taken on a new lease of life.
Optimism is rampant everywhere.
Where formerly were drawn faces
and tired eyes smiles and vivacity are the
rule.
The country is once again proud Of
itself
On all sides we find hope
The new spirit Of America is due to-
the sudden casting off of the shackles
which have bound the people of the coun-'
try for the past fifteen or twenty years.
Liberty once again means something
and the patriotism of the people, long dor
mant, has beeen reborn.
Along the great cross-continental
highways, hotel men, inpkeepers, owners
of roadside stands, all tell the same story.
Travel is increasing and the travellers
are cheerful.
Business is picking up
Two months of Washington activity
has done all this
Two months of efficient leadership,
sanity in legislation, relegation to the dis
card of cant and hypocrisy.
The country is almost hysterical in its
admiration and appreciation of the leader
ship of President Roosevelt It amounts
to almost absolute alteration and wor-
ship
Business has not yet hit its stride.
The realization that it was to have real
chance for revival was almost too sudden
TOO stunning Ito have an immediate eff
feet.
But business has grasped the situa-
ton.
Business is crouched for q spring and
filled with the new optimistic spirit, it will
soon be on its way in full cry,

THAT STOCK MARKET

Wall Street continues to fly in the
face Of logic.
The optimists have it.
Prices. continue to. go, Up, despite the
fact that there is nothing but the hope of
future prosperity to Justify the climb.
There is maxim somewhere that be-
lieving g thing long enough makes it so. +
In the matter of the market prices of
stocks there is every evidence, at the time
Of this writing, that the maxim has some
foundation in fact.
Investors very evidently believe that
business is coming back and coming back
strong.
There is no sense, in being obstinate
about it, and the indications are that we
are. on an upward wave that will continue
to grow unless checked by some untoward
occurrence.
If people believe, as they seem to be-
lieve, that the time has come to dig the
dollars out Of the old sock and put them
into circulation, prosperity is here.
The very increase in the market values
Of stocks will liberate q tremendous amount
of money for business purposes.
Loans frozen by under-value collateral
will be paid.
The banks will be able TO lend money.
As capital is the greatest need of business
at the present time, this should result in
early business revival.
The stock market will probably con-
tinue to climb for an indeterrninate period.

GUARDING ONES HEALTH

How much one should worry about
his health has been the subject for many
arguments. Some hold that . periodical
physical examination should be taken with
q view to discovering any incipient
diseases Others believe that such exami-
nations tend to make = person think too
much about his health and that the con-
seqnent worry is worse than letting nature
take its course.
A recent radio lecturer on heart
disease. which is at present the most
deadly Of all ailments, suggested middle
course While he advocated periodical
physical examinations, he warned his lis
teners not to take them too seriously. Be
cause. IS he pointed out, many persons live
for dozens of years with heart trouble. and
finally die of something else.
But. as he further stated. the fact that
one Is concerned about his heart may cause
him to adopt ! mode Of living which viii
not DULY tend TO ease his heart strain, But
viii be beneficial to his general health as
welL The same principle applies 70 ether

vice Of Sir William Qsler. who said. in sub
stance: IF you would live long, get .
