Poor PreliminarieS.

"HE University of Maryland's box
ing team probably could have
run the entire flock of prelimi-
nary boys out of the place, but, at that,
the supplementary bouts furnished
many times the action produced by
Jadick and Zivic.
Pete Bevans, local welterweight, was
too fast for young Joe Ferrone, also
of Washington, and took unanimous
decision in the six-round semi -windup.
Ferrone rocked Bevans several times,
but somehow never got around to fol-
lowing up.
Ray (Kid) Ingram of Florida and
Lawrence Gum of Baltimore, light
weights, committed a five-round bout,
which went the distance, with Ingram
q unanimous winner. Baby Charles
of Washington and Sam Bracala,
lightweights, drew after four rounds;
Stanford Carrier technically kayoed
Billy Wells in the fourth and last
round of a welterweight bout, and Kid
Easter of Florida outfumbled Mike
O'Brien of Rockingham, N. c., in an
other four-rounder.

to the point where Kenwood Golf and
Country Club may renew this year
the National Capital open golf cham
pionship, an annual feature of the
golf season for the past four years.
The matter has progressed to the
point where club officials have written
to Pinehurst seeking the dates for the

Kenwood may line up the dates for
the Capital open tourney to precede
the Pinehurst affair by a few days,

Breaks Against Last Tourney.
IT'S all quite a different picture
from that painted last October
after the fourth National Capital
open tourney was won by Bobby
Cruickshank. Three factors worked
against that tournament to keep the
entry list down and to keep down the
gate"
First was the imminent departure
Of group Of about 10 of the leading
professionals for Australia, including
Paul Runyan and KY Laffoon. two
headiners who pull EN- in at the gate
wherever they appear.
Second was the fact that Kenwood
stepped out early in October and
passed up the tie-up with Pinehurst.
Third was the weather, for on the
opening day Of the tourney it rained
torrents. cutting down the gate to a
mere trickle and even causing hint
that the tournament might have to be
postponed when flooded putting greens
and rain-drenched fairways shot the
scores skyward.
But Kenwood never has had good
break in weather, for previous tourna-
ments held in November. have yielded
nothing but freezing temperatures.

NEW YORK, May 30.-The toilet
rips industry has taken an important
forward step with formation of the
Toilet Goods Association, TO be headed
by Herman Brooks of Coty, Inc, and
with q hoard of governors including
many leaders in the industry.
From start of next to nothing in
1914, the industry has grown by leaps
and bounds until, at the peak in 1929,
it attained a volume estimated at
$500, 100000 as the manufacturers
cost. There are no reliable figures on
retail volume, but some estimates
range as high as one or two billion
dollars annually.
The industry is one of the most
highly competitive in rhe country.
That is clearly shown by the adver-
tising space it uses. The prize is
worthwhile for the new line that
catches on with the public. Five or
six years ago, a new odor was put on
the market by an old established house
and, within six months, it produced
more than million dollars of new
business. IL is now well up among the
leaders, with whole group of prod
ucts marketed under the same generic
trade name.

NEW YORK, May 30.-New designs
and improvements, augmented by en-
tertaining programs are the leading
factors which have caused an extern
sion of the gains made by the radio
industry last year, according to Dun IL
Bradstreet, Inc.
Perfection of the short-wave sets
and progress made in the development
of radios for motor cars forced some
manufacturers to increase their out
put from rs to 300 per cent above
that for the first quarter Of 1884.
Sales in nearly all parts Of the coun-
try have expanded, the increases run
ming all the way from IS to 10 per
cent, in spite Of the fact that demand
generally during the opening months
of the year usually is nearly one-third
less than that experienced during the
third and fourth quarters.
"a particularly encouraging phase
of this years sales has been the higher
profit margin obtained on household
sets, because of the trend toward the
larger and more expensive models. In
terest in the single-wave length radio
is waning, and many distributors are
stocking only the long and Short-Wave
combination sets, and are increasing
the proportion of their inventories
represented by units ranging from $500
TO 81 900.
New all-time peaks for network
advertising sales have been touched
this year, and profits of some of the
leading concerns for the first quarter
were the largest since 1880, with the
exception of the final quarter of 1894.
While no early developments are ex-
pected, much interest is being taken
in the experimental work on COM
mercisI television
Following increases OF so 10 100
per cent in sales OF radios in 1884.
when compared with the 1888 figures,
the expansion of demand has been
extended thus far In the current year.
Dollar sales In most parts of rhe
country averaged IS 10 so per cent
larger Imam during the first four
months of 1894. In fact, distribution
has gained steadily since last Fall, with
much of the increased volume attrib-
uted largely TO the uree to replace old
and obsolete models with modern
short-wave sets and TO equip sutomo-
bies. The introduction of all-Wave
sets, designed for use with batteries
in sections not electrified, has created
considerable interest among farmers
and sales in rural districts during the
first two months of this year nearly
eoualed the total for the entire IL
months of 1894
The medium priced models con-
stitute The bulk Of the sales, but there
