up under hardShlps. The harness horse can trot IA miles in an after noon, and then come back a couple days later and do the same thing again.
 No other sport has made as great a comeback in the past few years as harness racing. For three years the Hamletonian at Goshen, N. Y. the Kentucky derby of trotting- has attracted 8 crowd of 30,000. It wasn't long ago when only the Co., shen populace and a handful of out Siders formed the trotting horse crowd for the Hambletonian.
 With the trotters invading the far west, it won't be long until movie stars will be getting their pictures in the papers sitting in a sulky, with reins and whip in their hands. They've been photographed in every conceivable pose but I can't ever recall seeing Myrna Loy or Marlene Dietrich sitting in sulky. That will be a shot.
 The trotting race outlook for next season has a decided feminine touch. Rosalind, bay lilly, has been made the inter book favorite for the Hambletonian, and the other four top-fight contenders also are gals. They are Ruth M. Mag, Late Han- over, Hollywood Lyda and Roestte, all brunettes.
 Many prominent names have been identified with trotting racing in the west, including Leland Stanford. John P. Scripps recently bought six colts at the old glory sale in New York, and has them in training for the eastern ivasion.
 StandOut
 California has sent many great horses east, most notable of which was Sonoma Girl, always known as "Tfie Girl from the Golden West" She ran up a remarkable string of victories and had a mark of 2:U4 IA. Another great mare brought over," as the expression was when horses were shipped across the great divide eastward, was Lou Dillon, long holder of the world record of 1:8 1-2 for a mare. Sweet Marie, another California product, came east and cleaned up everything in sight, earning mark of 2:02.

 Can you blame Sam Garofolo, our ambassador of mirth, for sporting a big smile. His 317 last week brought his average up to little r. ter than 100 and now Sam says, if he doesn't finish among the first five bowlers he will hank up his bowling shoes for all time.
 John Salty Orsino, ex-Grand star, was right in from last week, crashing the naples for 375 score.
 Bill Colangelo claims he's the the most consistent bowler in the league to prove 1t he ups and bowls 90-90 and 9l. o. K. Bill you win, but try bowling some higher scores.

 Dom Dynamite" Lacarenza lived up to his reputation as the coolest bowler in the league, under fire. His sensational spares at a crucial moment of the last game against the Hawks not only won the game but scored first place for his Eagles.
 Tony Palladino our popular "Prexy' gave Rocco Pettinico one of his stockings to hang up for Christmas. Rocco, you know, wants a bowling alley from Santa.
 For a moment 1t seemed that Lanky Louis Longa and Tony Ciar. lone would break their season high three record with a nice first game but they both fell down mis- erably in the next two games.
 The Sparrows, rolling 559 in the second game, fell just eight pins short of the seasons high game record. Too bad Flash" Fulliero was way off form Monday but bet- ter luck next time boys.

KINGSBURY DEFEATS
 SPRAGUE SHOOTERS

The Kingsbury grammar school basketball team found little diffi- culty in swamping Sprague yester- day afternoon by score of 14-4. The game was very ragged in spots and Kingsbury players missed many perfect chances to score.
 Carmichael, Arnold and Kampner were outstanding for Kingsbury, while Wagner made the only scores for Sprague.
 At the present time Maloney leads the league with two victories to its credit. Today's game finds Bunker Hill and Russell dangling for their first game.

TRAVEL STILL ATTRACTS
YOUTHS 10 NARINE CORPS
Restless Spirit Is Evident In Young
Hen Who Apply For Enlistment

I
The restless spirit Of American
!, youth is becoming more evident eV-
cry day, according 70 Major E. L.
Lloyd of the Marine Corps, who has
an opportunity to interview many
young mea at his oifiee in the New
Custom House Building, Second and
Chestnut streets, Philadelphia, Pa.
Even when their home surround
ings are better than average, there
seems to be an Unborn desire on the
part OF every normal young man to
go places and do things" says Major
Lloyd.
Eager to begin new life. far
from their home environment, the
primary question asked by nearly
every applicant. Major Lloyd says,
is where do we go from here?''
They do not always put the qHes-
zion IN that fashion, but the examin-
ing ofiieer can readily see that their
chief desire is to get started Tor one
OF the numerous Marine Corps sta
tions, at home or abroad. and espe-
cially one which happens to be in
some far corner of the globe.
Most of the young men who seek
enlistment in the Marine Corps to-
day are not of the "hiteh-hiking"
type. They have not thnmbed their
way to Philadelphia, and failing to
find employment, decided to try
some branch OF the service.
On the contrary many Of them are
natives Of localities within a radius
of from twenty-five to thirty miles
from the city. They have either
failed to find satisfactory employ
ment at home, or have succumbed
to the quite natural instinct of ev-
cry healthy youth to travel about a.
bit and see what is going on else
where.
Happily the Marine Corps Is able
to fulfill that desire very satisfac-
torily. With perhaps the most mo-
bile military force in existence, no
unit OF the Corps ever becomes sta
tic. The main training ceRters as
Paris Island, s. c., has the most
mobile population in the world, with
an entire turn over"
every few months
Some attribute the restlessness of }
youth TO she unstable conditions OF
Dnr times. Major Lloyd believes It Is
merely the pioneer Instinct, which
was so deeply rooted in our ances-
Tors, and which is finding its eOun- /
Eerpart in the youth OF today.
