ROCKNE STARTS SPRING GRID DRILL

267 Aspiring Footballers Report to Coach at Notre Dame. Bv Times Special SOUTH BEND, March 15.—Two hundred and sixty-seven suits were handed out this week to aspiring gridsters as Coach Knute K. Rockne's annual spring training session swung under way. This football material will be given six weeks of intensive drill, the daily program of which will be divided into Boon lectures on theory and in actual laboratory work on the field itMl t in the afternoon. These noon lectures, optional to oft, are as much like a class as anything could be. “Rock” has his daily quizzes, written and oral, and tops the whole matter off with an examination that is conclusive of some tall thinking on the part of the scholars. Fourteen of last year’s varsity will aid Rockne in handling the men on the field. These men are the seniors who will graduate next June and have each been assigned to charge of the group trying out for the positions they are leaving open. Thus Maxwell and Wallace will have charge of the ends; All-Ameri-can “Bud” Boeringer will groom the centers; Hearden, Edwards and xO’Boyle and McNally will look after Jthe backfield; Marelli will coach the coming guards while McManmon and Boland will spend their time on the tackles.

EXPECT HEAVY TRAFFIC IN ENGLISH CHANNEL Early Activity Far-Reaching—Vierkotter Mille.Corson to Attempt to Duplicate Feats.

Bv United Press LONDON, March 15. —The channel swimmers are beginning to limber up and another season of heavy traffic between Gris Nez and Dover seems assured. The early activity is far-reaching v Owners and option holders of seagoing tugs, confused by the moderate water of the Mediterranean, are getting ready to quit their villas at Monte Carlo and get back to Bologne to negotiate with newspaper organizations which are expected to promote swimmers for “exclusive” news and photograph features. All the useful tugs are tied up and the prices this year will be higher than ever. Burgess Is Busy Old “Bill” Burgess, who piloted Gqrtrude Ederle across last year, has journeyed to Gris Nez from his suburban home in Paris to see if his cottage on the summit of the gray nose has wetherea the blasts of winter storms. Bill still has an ambition >to build a golf course at Gris Nez l o accommodate swimmers, their hangers-on, newspaper men and visr j tors attracted there during the season by the sport. Itchy Gook, the Eskimo swimmer, reports himself in splendid condition because of the training he lias been able to put in during the severe wilier. So the stage is all set for the foreigners with their big money. Try for Prize Several English swimmers will be on/the job early to try for the News of the World prize of $5,000 for the first British swimmer to beat the 'record or the first British woman to beat Miss Ederle’s record.

CITY BOWLING GOSSIP

The Coca-Cola team of the Recreation League made a clean sweep of their series with the Bailey Realty team in Monday night’s play, while the Shell Gas, Baker Brothers and Kreis Transfer were grabbing two out of three from the Silver Flash, 3-F Coffee and Roberson Coal. Baker Brothers, with a total of 2,906, was the leading wood-chopping club in this loop. Three games passed the 1,000 mark, the 1,007 game of the Silver Flash and Kreis Transfer being tied for high. In the individual shooting, nine of the boys passed the 600 mark. Haislup had 611, Hornberger 602, Carmin 600, Fehr 614, Hunt 604, Fulton 600, Henry 613, Bowen 612 and Snyder 624. Thirty-nine games wer6 over the 200 mark, the 255 game of Fonnie Snyder being high. Peter Petersen, fresh from Sweden, rolling with the Thompsons of Chicago in the A. B. C. at Peoria took the lead in the singles late Monday afternoon with a count of 701. Scores are mounting rapidly at the big show and it appears that new records are due to be made. ' Lou Fahrbach, John Martin and Brewer were hit with spring fever Sunday night and we listened in on their ‘“first stories” until the barber

man swimmer, who holds the best record except that claimed by Georges Michel, will be back this year to try to beat Michel’s time. Writing from Cologne to the United Press, he said: “I intend to swim the 'channel again this summer and subsequently to travel to the United States to compete and participate in exhibitions there. I’m now busily training in the local swimming tank here and as soon as the weather permits shall begin my tryouts in the In Opposite Direction Mrs. Mille Corson, the second woman to swim the channel, has written to friends in England that she is returning in May to swim in the opposite direction, from England to France. Owing to the turn of the tides, this is harder than swimming from France to England. She says she wants to be the first woman to swim both directions. Interest among French swimmers is not now so keen, owing to the remarkable time claimed by Michel. And Michel's friends say that after struggling for years he did not make anything out of his swim last yar. The old-timers hope to feet a look at George Young, the young Canadian hero of the Catalina swim, in channel -water. If- he comes this year he will undoubtedly be a big attraction. TO EXPLAIN PLANS Bv United Press NEW YORK, March 15.—Preliminary plans for the organization of the American Olympic team will be explained by Gen. Charles H. Sherrill, member of the commmittee, at a dinner to be given by him at the University Club on April 7. Prominent athletic officials and sports writers will be the guests. “amusements

came along and started to catch blind bass. That was enough punishment, so home we went. Two out of three wins ruled in the Century League games, the Lincoln Highway, Banquet Ice Cream, Florsheim and Werbe-Meissen teams taking the Holtman Shoes, Century Pickups, Century Alleys and Century Billiards over this route. The Century Billiard turned in high, single game a 1,079 and high three game total on 2,949. But four men were able to reach the coveted “600,” Schmitt having 624; Kimble, 606; McGraw, 601, and Michelis, 617. Thirty-four games of better than “200" showed the 238 of Bohne being high. * The Retail Merchants League games rolled on the Capitol alleys Monday night resulted in two-time wins for the L.

None of the boys were able to hit “600” in this loop, the 573 of Carroll being high for the night. A. Shea and M. O’Grady won the mixed doubles match at the Century alleys Sunday afternoon with a count of 1,177. Mr. and Mrs. Merwin finished second with 1,102. M. Freund and P. Hart Were next with 1,097. Thirty-two couples were entered in the event. The Mailing Division, Illinois Street Station, and Two Tripper’s won all three of their games from the City Case, Four Tripper’s and Print Shop while the Muggier Dobbins were winning two out of three from the Box Department in the Post Office League games rolled on the Capitol alley.

The Whiskers won three from the Claws in the Lions Leaguo games while the Tails pulled away from the Teeth in two out of three of their games. Hill, with a count of 205 in his last try, had high game in this loop. Eddie Meyer stepped into Dayton, 0., when Jimmy .Smith was doing his stuff and took Jimmy on for a three game match. Result was: Meyer, 649; Smith, 617. This looks as if Eddie was getting ready for the Peoria pin fest. TO MEET FOR NET TITLE Princeton, Dartmouth to Clash Saturday in Play-Off Tilt.

OYSTER HOUSE IS RENDEZVOUS The Philadelphia Oyster House. 105 East Ohio street, has enjoyed a splendid season this year, according to J. W. Everingham, proprietor, catering to the oyster appetites of the city. First-class restaurant service is given by Everingham, which has enabled him to establish a reputation for selecting and preparing oysters. Only select shell oysters are served to patrons of the restaurant. Big, luscious, juicy, “right from the shell” oysters are used in filling orders. Experft cooks receive the orders and take special care in each order. Trained waitresses are employed. The restaurant is an attractive place, and maintained in a sanitary manner. By a special ventilation system, the unpleasant odors of many restaurants are eliminated. Each evening the restaurant is visited by “oyster parties.” “The demand for oysters in Indianapolis is growing,” Everingham asserted. “Alt Hough located far from the oyster beds, Indianapolis is able to get by express, prompt shipments of the best oysters available along the Atlantic coast. Wedeal only with reputable firms handling oysters, and we are assured of first-class stock. We supervise the opening of our oysters and discard all which do not measure up to our requirements." Everingham has become a citywide authority on how to prepare and serve oysters. He uses recipes which have “been in the family” for many years, and which have been carefully guarded.

dations which represent great economic waste preventable by modern fumigation methods, according to J. V. McMillen. manager of the T. N. T. Exterminating Company, 905 City Trust Bldg. “Many millers are spending a great amount of time and energy ift vain efforts to keep ahead of the Mediterranean moth and other pests, with ineffective methods of control,” McMillan said. “The problem of ridding mills of insects is one which keeps the millowner in a constant state of anxiety, because ordinary methods of extermination are not usually successful and involve a great deal of trouble and expense. The webbing habit of the larvae of the Mediterranean moth frequently stops the entire machinery, with a consequent loss of time. Other troublesome pests are found in flour mills. “The wide-awake milier does not wait for these insects to become established, but institutes control measures at once and gives his mill a thorough cleaning before the insects have had a chance to cto serious damage. “Many of the control measures In common use about mills are not entirely satisfactory. Fumigation of the right kind is tha only adequate defense the miller hi s against insect invasion, and lie certainly owes it to himself to make use of the best available weapons. “We use a hydrocyanic acid gas, liquid in form, the 100 per cent fumigant, and it is the only really effective means of thoroughly exterminating insect pests. We have proved conclusively that it can be done.” ' CUSHION TO RESTAURANTS A modern equipped sheet-metal shop in charge of M. J. Wales is
