zenith century the red British ensign carrying
the union Jack In the canton. The British flag
was altered after the Revolution had begun by
placing 10 stripes In the fly Of the flag under the
British union jack.
1t was called the grand union flag" and was
hoisted by Lieut.. John Paul Jones on December
3, IT'S, In the newly formed American feet off
Philadelphia. On January ! or 2, 1776, 1t was
raised over the newly organized American army
at Washington's headquarters In Cambridge. In
the correspondence of that day 1t was referred
to as the american ~colors." 1t is interesting
to note that although these American colors
were used six months before the Declaration of
independence, they still carried the British union
jack In the corner. The thirteen united colonies
were depicted by the thirteen stripes of the field.
No flag was authorized by act of congress un-
til nearly a year after the Declaration of indie
pendence. That the grand union" flag was lit
tie used In the army Is seen from the many flags
of other designs carried by the Revolutionary
troops. In the navy, on account OF the necessity
Of telling a friend from a foe by his colors, the
same flag was generally used by all congress
ships.
In ITS. 1t was usually the pine tree flag; In
1776, and until June IA, 1777, the grand union,
and after June Ia, 1777, the Stars and Stripes.
Privateers carried striped and rattlesnake flags
Of various designs but 1t soon became necessary
to carry a uniform design, and this forced the
adoption Of a national flag. This is why the
resolution for the adoption of the stars and
stripes appeared In the minutes of the marine
committee meeting of June IA, 1777.
Because green was such q prominent color In
early Revolutionary war flags, 1t would not have
been at all surprising If that color had found Its
way into the national emblem. One Of the most
striking flags of the Revolution was a flag with
green fly and a union of Is links In an endless
chain. Outside the circle of links was a circle OF
10 hands or mailed fists emerging from clouds
and ~graspIng the links. In the center of the
chain was a pine tree Of green on a blue field
This was the flag Of the Newburyport Mass
company. Green was also the color of the pine
tree and liberty tree flags of Revolutionary days
In April, 1776, the Massachusetts council pre-
scribed green and white as the uniform of Off
GERS In their sea service, and In the same year
the marine committee of the Continental con
gress In Philadelphia resolved that the uniform
OF marine officers be a green coat, white waiiFt

P|TTMAN PLEA
/. FOR SILVER
IS FUTILE

LONDON, July 20 ,GNS0.
The de-vitalized Pittman silver
resolution was adopted by a sub,
committee of the monetary COM
mission of the World Economic
Conference today following a bit
ter speech by its American author
explaining the United States
Governments support Of silver
and attacking opponents of the
use Of the metal.
The resolution was approved
as submitted by the special
silver committee yesterday, with
all disputable and controversial
clauses deleted and standing as
an entirely innoccuous document
of recommendation, vaguely
favoring a rise in the price of
silver.
Senator Key Pittman, of
Nevada, author of the document,
said:
I'VE have not reached a
point where we can handle
managed currencieS."
He pleaded for introduction of
bi-metalism as a cure for the de-
preston. He added:
at is said silver is a com.
modify, and that gold is not;
and yet half the people in the
world do not know any other
money than silver"

CHICAGO, April 8 QN.S0 "a
complete investigation of the cir
cumstances which terminated the
Savoldi.Londos wrestling match at
the Chicago Stadium last night
was conducted today by the 1lli-
nois Athletic Commission.
Charges that the bout may have
been fixed" were to be sifted
when Chairman Joe Triner sum-

the commission. Savoldi was
given the decision over Londos,
who claimed the championship, at
the conclusion Of 26 minutes and
20 seconds with LondoS in the
grip of a crotch hold.
It was revealed, among other
things, that Emil Thiry, veteran
official, was to have refereed the
match. but that at the last min
ute the assignment was switched
to Bob Managoff, former heavy
weight wrestler.
1t was the first time in four
years that LondoS has been
beaten, although three opponents
had won falls from him in the

Considering the dampness
which still fingered in the

tonians paid a well-deServed
tribute to Joe Judge on
the occasion of the lone exhi-
ton game here with the Brook
lyn Dodgers yesterday. Uni
versally hailed as the acme Of
grace and effectiveness around
the first bag over a decade
and a half. Joe Judge is a
real attraction in any teams
uniform. He obliged yesterday
with a nice pair of hits.
No less an authority than
Connie Mack has gone out of
his way to toss an orchid to
Judge, and coming from a man
ager who has the likes of Jimmy
Foxx against which to draw
comparisons, we think Mack's
words about Judge are signifi-
cant. He says:
Zone of the SmarteSt first
basemen the American League
ever saw. Joe Judge is a dan
gerOus hitter with a great knack
of driving in runs which change

The extra base hitting in every

plenty of revenge on Buddy
Grimes recently right in the lat

severe pasting, thus earning
for himself another shot at

Grimes had previously stopped
Doug in five rounds. 1t looked
like the end of the promising

good and now he's back. set to
