May 31.—Efforts to obtain an international definition of the word ‘amateur” as it is used in sports are being made by the American delegates to the International Foot Ball Association, now session here 'mpic committee and one of the Peter J. Peel of Chicago, a member of the American delegates to the association confer- e, told the correspondent in an interview toda “America and Great Britain,” he explained, contend_that all notion - money should be excluded in defining amateurism. Our athletes re- ceive absolutely nothing for their Olympic performances. ‘Other countries think different however, some indemnifying their representatives liberally for suffered from absence from work during the period of the Olympiad. ‘Without such Indemnity they could find no team to represent them, they say. This may be true, but stitutes an unfair advantage. theless there should be tional definition of the word ama We want to coin it before the next Olympiad.” Commenting on the unexpected showing made by the American Olym- pic soccer team, Peel said: “Many were opposed to sending the 1eam because the odds were against us, but I think they were wrong.

Fuller holed his brassie shot at the ninth hole, a distance of 220 yards from the tee, with a following wind. When he came up to the green he asked a spectator if he had seen a ball go over the green. “I didn't see a ball go over the green, but I saw a ball go in the cup,” the onlooker re- plied.

BOSTON, Mass., May 31.—Steps to eliminate the “diving” or so-called “western roll” style of high jumping among candidates for the American Olympic team, as a result of its re- cent protest by French athletic offi- clals, have been taken by the Associa- tion of College Track Coaches. This type of jumping, whose expo- nents include such stars as Harold Osborne, world indoor record holder, and D. V. Alberts, both of Chicago, has been a subject of controversy for seme time, Recently it resulted in formal action by France to have the councll of the International Olympic Committee determine its legality, and though it was indicated the protest would not be sustained, American coaches feel that every effort should be made to avoid the eleventh-hour disputes which would hamper the chances of Yankee victory at-Paris. The coaches belleve that most of the jumpers affecting a diving style over the bar can, by comparatively slight practice, alter their form to avold possible question. To formu- late a final policy of recommendation to the L C. A. A. A. A. and the Ama- teur Athletic Unlon, as athletic gov- erning bodles, the coaches named a committee composed of Keene Fitz- patrick of Princeton, Walter Christle of California and Lawson Roberfson of Pennsylvania, the latter two head Olympic coaches. They will meet to- morrow to take definite action. The coaches also decided to recom- mend substitution of white lines for the roped-off sprint lanes in the fu- ture, and advised against the proposal to eliminate the thirty-five-pound weight throw from the I C. A. A. A. A. indoor champlonship. John F. Moakley, veteran Cornell coach, was elected president of the assoclation to succeed Thomas F, Keane of Syracuse. John Ryder of Boston College was named vice presi- dent and Harry L. Hillman of Dart- mouth, secretary and treasurer. The new board of governors includes Walter Christie of California, Keene Fitzpatrick of Princeton and Lawson Robertson of Pennsylvania for two- year terms, and C. F. Sely of Wil- iiams, Thomas F. Keane of Syracuse and Steve Farrell of Michigan for one-year terms. Coaches elected to membership in- clude J. C. Derby of Massachusetts Aggles, Earl Thompson and N. A. Merriam of Yale, Dr. Thomas Connor, M. L T.; Arthur Smith, West Virginia, and Harold Bruce, now of Lafayette, who will coach at Unlon next season. MONTGOMERY LOOP OPENS.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 31—L. L. Corum, Indianapolis, whose car won the 600-mile automobile race at the Indianapolls Motor Speedway yester- day In record-breaking time, and Earl Cooper, veteran coast star, who finished second, are tled for the leadership in the contest for 1924 A. A. A. driving champlonship. Each has 535 points. Corum drove only 105 of the 200 1aps necessary to make 500 miles yes- terday, Joe Boyer, Detroit, taking the wheel at that time and carrying on through to victory. It was an- nounced by A. A. A. offictals that for the 105 laps Corum drove he would be glven 536 points. It was his first race of the year. Cooper, on' the other hand, gained 520 points {n yesterday's race, having driven the entire route without re- lief. He already had fifteen points, gained In the 250-mile race at Beverly Hills, Calif., on February 24. Cooper led most of the way on the local course, but tire trouble, de- veloping twice in five minutes, 'with only fifty miles to go, caused him to arop back. Harry Flagler is in third place by virtue of winning the race at Bever- ley Hills, with 500 points. He did not start here, having been injured during practice several weeks ago. Jimmy Murphy, who finished third yesterday, s next in line, with 295 points, and Harry Hartz, who copped fourth place in the long grind, s next, with 280, Boyer went in as rellef driver for Corum after his own car had been slowed down by motor trouble. It was the custom for a relief man to turn the machine back to the original driver to finish the race, but under the circumstances it was im- possible yesterday. A stop might have delayed the leader long enough for Cooper to regain the lead. As it was Cooper will share in the glory and Corum will get the lion's share of the money. Boyer's sensational driving brought the speed up to 104 miles an hour in the last 100 miles. The average for the race was 98.24 miles an hour, as compared with 94.48 set by Murphy in 1922, LAST HALF OF SHOOT IS SCHEDULED TODAY With half of the events in the Maryland-District of Columbia trap- shooting champlonships completed yesterday, interest is being centered on the final firing in the titular sin- gles and the handicgp shoot, both of which are being staged today over the Benning traps. The first event started this morning at 9:30 o'clock. S. M. Crouthers of Philadelphia led the first half of the singles shoot yes- terday by breaking 96 clay pigeons out of a possible 100. N. C. Roach of ‘Windber, Pa., was second with a 95, while the Winchester team of Wil- mington, Del, turned in high gun among the professionals, with a score of 94. Neither Crouthers nor Roach is eligible for the District-Maryland laurels, but they are to be given prizes if they continue their good work. H. C. Krout of Maryland Line, Md., won the District-Maryland double target championship after mlnhln! 42 clays out of a possible 50. Dr. J. S. Mandigo of Baltimore made an im- pressive showing In the singles event with a 93, and he probably will figure in the final with the Maryland and District contestants today. Lieut. Commander F. P. Willlams of the Washington Gun Club and W. E. Thawley also gave a good account of themselves in the singles events, as they both registered 92. ~ COLLEGE BASE BALL Philadelphia—Penn, 6; Colum- bia, 3. At Worcester—Holy Cross, 3; Bos- ton College, 1. At Providence—Brown, 4; Harvard, 1 * At Morgantowa—Pitt, 3; West Vir- winia, 2. After the preliminary trials yester- day for thirteen of the fifteen cham- plonship events, Yale led the fleld with fourteen places, while Leland Stanford, chief hope of the Pacific Coast, was next with thirteen. Observers look for today's fight for first place to rest chiefly between these two, but two other eastern and two far western squads loom so formidable that experts figured it would take only the slight- est of upsets to change the whole com- plexion of the outlook. These other. contenders were Call- fornia, three-time champions, and Southern California, for the far west, and Pennsylvania and Princeton for the Atlantic seaboard. They tallied from eight to ten. men In the prelim- inarles and possessed particularly pow- erful strength in the fleld events, where Yale and Stanford placed most of thelr qualifiers in the track com-’ petition. Such teams as Penn State, really a “dark horse” contender; Har- vard, Cornell, Johns Hopkins and Bos- ton College also promised to be fac- tors in the final outcome, though un- likely to reach the top. Sensational record-breaking feats in the broad jumps and discus yesterday were advance indications of an un- usually high grade of competition in most of the events. The twenty-five- year-old broad jump mark of A. C. Kraenzlein_of Pennsylvania was re. placed by Bill Comins of Yale, with a leap of 24 feet § 5-16 inches, while six far westerners who monopolized the discus qualitying places all broke the record, with Jim Arthur of Stanford bettering by over fourteen feet the mark set in 1922 by Hartranft of Stan- ford, who was second in yesterday's trials. Arthur tossed the discus 154 feet 8% inches, but because of a high wlndd the mark may not be allowed to stand. 4 HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS HOLD PAIR OF MEETS Schoolboy athletes are competing in the annual track and field high &chool championship meet today, in Central stadium. The first event will get under way at 2 o'clock. Freshmen of the five high schools were to stage their championship games this morning. Central High's track team captured six first places yesterday when it scored 44 points to win the Loyola College Memorial day track and field carnival yesterday at Baltimore. Ziegler of Central got first in the century, and Eckel, a teammate, fin- ished first in the half-mile. Burieigh of the Blue and White copped first in the 440-vard run, while Eckel took the honors in the mile. Baker of Cen- tral won the discus throw, and Zieg- ler the running broad jump. OLYMPIC BODY WANTS GOVERNMENT TO PAY PARIS, May 31.—The rrench Olym- pic committee is hard up for money, says L'Auto, and all through the fault of the government, which owes it 2,000,000 francs. Parliament voted the committee 6,000,000 francs, two-thirds of which have been paid up to the present, but all efforts to extract the balance have failed. The delay is greatly embarrassing the committee, with the principal competitions only a month away. L'Auto says ail that is needed to assure payment is the simple signa- ture of the finance minister.

EAR DOROTHY DIX: My husband does nothing but talk about money. his stocks, bonds and investments—when he is with me. Remarking upon this to friends, some one replied that it was odd that he talked of nothing but money at home, as outside he seems always concentrating on a skirt. He is Incurably fiirtatious, ogles every pretty woman, flirts with the &irl ushers at the movies, the waltresses in restaurants and has a “way” with women for which they fall. . ‘Why doesn't he try some of his cute little ways with me? But no, business becomes his topic of conversation with me.- It is humiliating and embarrassing to have a husband who, Is an outrageous flirt, yet he is never unkind, gives me everything I want except the little attentions that are so much prized by women. We have a family of four children, of whom he seems inordinately fond, and he spends lots of time on holidays and Sundays with them. I love him dearly. Can you help me? H. C. M. Answer: The only thing that can help you, Mrs. H. C. M. is to cultivate a hard-boiled philosophy that will enable you to laugh at your husband's weakness instead of being hurt by it. Be comforted by this truth: The fiirtations which a married man carries on in public are harmles They are merely a tribute that his vanity asks of any passing woman, He wants to show what a devil he is among the ladles, and that is all there 1s to it. The philandering of which a wife has a right to be jealous is the secret affalr that her husband carries on under cover. There is Infatuation in that, and it strikes at the very roots of her happiness. The really disloyal husband seldom flaunts his infidelities in his wife's face. But however much a wife knows this, a flirtatious husband s a humiliation to her because it hurts her so to see him making such a fool of himself. It degrades him g0 in her eyes to see him lower himself to the level of the common, vulgar masher who picks up girls on the.street. Sometimes it s harder to forgive a lack of good taste tham it Is an al s You are mistaken, though, in thinking that when your husband discusses his business and his investments with you he shows lack of affection for you. Quite the opposite is the case. A man never gives a greater proof that he loves his wife, that he trusts her judgment and discretion, and that he regards her as just part of himself. than when he talks business with her. For that is the American man's real life. That is the thing of paramount interest to him. That is his real heart-to-heart stuff. All the Jollying, the flattering, the near-love talk, amount to nothing. It is only the woman that a man cares for most in all the world that he talks to about his ambitions, and his plans, and his bank balance. It may not be as romantic to have your husband tell you that he has bought steel common, or is holding copper for the long pull, or that he has a nice little block of Pennsylvanla, as it would to have him tell you that you have the most beautiful eyes he ever saw, and that he just loves your Mona Lisa smile, but it means a lot more. Bo my advice is to study up on the stock market and try to forget the flappers. They are no real menace to you. You have to take husbands ‘as 18" as the shipping manifests say, and the ones who have the illusion that they have a wicked eye that no woman can'resist may be aggravating to their wives, but their vagaries .Ire_xe.nera.lly harmless.

At first little quarrels, then big ones. 1 gave her every chance to quit me, but she didn’t. Finally, we broke oft the engagement by mutual consent. This was about a month ago. Since then I have done nothing toward a reconciliation. She, however, has made certain subtle advances toward it. 1 love her dearly and would give my gight hand to have things on the old footing, but I am troubled with the thought that she is just leading me on so that she may crush me to gratify her vanity. I don't know what to do. C. A L. Answer: It seems to me, C. A. L., that you love yourself a great deal better than you do the girl or else you would not be willing to risk losing her in order to avold hurting your self-esteem. Evidently the girl is very fond of you. So fond of you that she held on even when you let her see that you wanted to break the engagement. So fond of you that she has extended the ollve branch that you are afraid to take. No self-respecting girl could do more. Now the situation is up to you. A man who is really in love with a girl doesn't stand on his dignity. He isn’t afraid of her getting the best of the situation or of being put in an embarrassing position. He doesn’t expect her to meet him half way. He s willing to go all the way to get her if he wants her. But if there is a fundamental difference in temperament between you two, and you are always quarreling, why not let matters stand as they are and each of you seek a mate who will be more congenial? There is small prospect of happiness in a marriage in which husband and wife look at everything from a different standpoint and where they have different tastes, different opinions, enjoy different things and really have no meeting ground except the purely physical attraction that draws them together for a brief_hour. ‘The happy home is not a battleground, with a man and woman fighting over every inch of it. It is a place of peace and rest, with a husband and wife contentedly “yes-yessing” each other and ambling along on the same hobby horses. - Don't delude yourself with the thought that people of different temperaments can ever adapt themselves to each other. They can mno more do it than a blue-eyed blonde can develop into a brunette, because her husband is dark, or a tall man can become short because he is married to a little woman. And, remember, if you quarrel before marriage you will quarrel with her ten times more after marriage, because married people have more things to quarrel over. “Like to like" is a_good matrimonial motto and I advise you to take it for your slogan. DOROTHY DIX. i A EAR MISS DIX: I am a divorced man of thirty and am in love with a young widow. We go together continually, but we are not engaged, and she thinks that there is nothing wrong in her going out once in a while with some one else. 1 show her every kind of entertainment and am jealous of her receiving any attention from any other man, but she thinks I take the wrong attitude in this matter. Possibly it is because she doesn't like me to tell her that she cannot do certain things. If I said that she might do them, she might not care for them. What do you think? 3.D; Answer: If you are not engaged to the lady I do not see what possible right you have to dictate to her about her conduct or say with whom she shall go and with whom she shall not go. Very few wives are weak enough in these days to let even their husbands tell them just where they get off and on, and certalnly no woman of spirit would stand being bossed by man who has no authority over her. If you wish to pre-empt the lady's soclety for your exclusive benefit you will have to marry her. A wedding the third; they booed the Athletic pitchez who walked him purposely, and when he came to bat in the last of the ninth of the second game, with three men on, two out and a run needed to tie, they walked out in cold disgust after he fanned at three wide ones while reaching for the homer they wanted.

The Yankees won from the Athletics behind Pennock’s bril- liant work, 6 to 0, so Boston stopped Washington, 9 to 4, as Boone batted a homer with three men on. The Ath- letics bounced four runs baok at Jones in the eighth inning of the second game and won, 5 to 4, and Red Sox graclously resigned to the Nationals, 10 to 5.

Marble Slab Removed. A large marble slab bearing the inscription: “King Alexander Adams, born April 13, 1831, Died October 1, 1917," had been broken from its bed- ding of plaster and placed on the floor. Just before the casket contain- ing Adams' body was sealed in its niche the casket was opened to give Queen Mary a final look at the body of her husband.
