B.v YINC’KNT RICHARDS. Vitlionnl Indoor 1>nnl» Champion. KYV YORK, May Ifi.—"l iieasy lie* the head that wears a rrown.” I The champion in any line ot ath letic e n d e a v or. whether it is box ing, tennis, golf, baseball or swim ming, must year after year call upon every re source within his power in order to retain his su premacy at his chosen sport. YYilliam T. Tilden, national lawn tennis singles champion and famous Davis cup star, is showing the strain that four years of active competition in so strenuous a game as tennis has placed upon him. During the last three years the writer has played Tilden about five times. In all our matches the tall Philadelphian has always had unlim ited speed of foot. laist Saturday In the annual Church cup aerie* that were played on the turf courts of the Merlon Cricket club at Haverford. Pa., we met for the sixth time. The tall Philadelphian still had his amazing change of pace, his remark able conlrol and his tremendous can non hall service, but the old fleetness of foot was lacking. Time and again the title holder would let balls go by that he ordi narily made a winning shoot of. The severe strain that "Big Bill" has been subjected to during the last four vears have taken their toll. He no longer is the dashing challenger that took the title from William M. John ston in that never to he forgotten struggle in 19j0. If he scales the heights during the present season he will go down in the history of the game as the most remarkable of all tennis champions Kddle Kane, Gibbons’ manager, gave out a little information today that wasn't very encouraging to Tom’s sparring partners. "Gibbons is no longer Boxing Tom." said Kane, "he's a tighter and he is making tlie going mighty rougli for Ids sparring partners. From now un til Friday, when Gibbons lets up In his work, every sparring partner In his ramp Is going to receive rough treatment."

And why tin's sudden burst of genorusity? it all tame about when Trimble told the AU Sar-Ben tli reetors what a wonderful field of horsPs would face the barrier in the initial feature of the season and what a supreme sinew straining struggle it promised to he. \fter listening infentivrly to Trim ble's enthusiastic report the members of the hoard passed a resolution to “sweeten the pot” with the result that some owner is destined to draw down a handsome monetary prize when his horses number Is displayed upper most on tile winning board. Before the resolution was passed to "raise the ante” of the inaugural feature race, Thomas O. Byrne, prominent lqfal captain of industry’ and member of the Ak-Sar Ben hoard of directors, made a short address to the other members in which he spoke of the high compliment paid the sport of racing by the willingness of Gov ernor Bryan to grace the Ak-SarBen track on opening day by his appear ance there. He then proposed, In j view of the fact that a brilliant field of runners would vie for honors In the race named for the governor, that the puree be Increased to $1,500 as an incentive for the horsemen to race the stars of their string* on opening day. Needless to say Di rector Byrne’s proposal met with hearty' support and in less time then it takes to tell about It' the purse was raised 50 per cent in value.

This bubble would be larger than the earth and would be composed of 1 million dollars worth of soap. The output of soap each year from Omaha's six soap factories is wholly a Nebraska product. All of the raw material comes from this state. Omaha and Nebraska are going forward, and as they grow, additional local and long distance telephone facilities are required constantly. In order to meet the growing demands for telephone service, the Bell System must spend about three-fourths of a million dollars annually for new telephone equipment in this state. -The constant growth of the industry requires vast sums of money from investors and already about half a million people have a financial interest in the business. If’you, also, are interested in a conservative investment, any employee will gladly tell you about Bell stock or bonds, or just telephone our Manager, JA ckson 2765. As Omaha prospers, the telephone is successful. Therefore, we constantly strive to provide reliable telephone service at the lowest possible charges consistent with Ereasonable wages to employees and a lair return on the money invested in the bustiigss.
