While on the subject of speclatois,
I't It be known that the citizens of
this city and the voters and would-be
Miters of the Main Line are without a
doubt greatly excited oer the tourna
ment at Hie Merlon Cricket Club. They
showed this by lhlr splendid attendance
Tuesday and jexlerdaj. They just
stajed away b.v tlie hundreds. When
the first match started jesterda.v there
were thirty-three on the clubhouse -veranda
and on the benches in front of
the clubhouse. Hut It was different
when the final match was being decided.
The crowd got all w.orked up so much
oer tlie match between How lands and
Itogers that the two couldn't sit still.
However, we'll return to our Initial
thought, twilight tennis. The play was
scheduled to start as near 3:15 as pos
sible, but due to the lalnfall it was
lacking but a few minutes of r. o'clock
when the Hist semifinal round of the
loubles between Bill Tllden anil Carl
Fisher and Wallace Hhoades and Hoth-

o'clock there was something doing on

players, for they could attend to their

, Anioii for Revenge
The big race on tonight's card is the
one-hour motorpaced race for distance.
There should be exciting moments
throughout the entire race for four
.of the est followers of the pace are
booked to compete. Percy Lawrencp, the
present American forty-mile champion :
! Oeorge Wllej-, of Syracuse vv ho defeated
Lnwrencc last Thursday evening: Clar
ence Carman, who has been riding In
hard lurk this season and Is determined
1 to break ills losing streak and Frank
Corrl. a rider who never knows when
he's defeated.
' Hut the big fight will ho between the
pacemakers. These motorocle riders
haven't been receiving the credit they
should. Sixty per cent of the result of
the motor-paced race depends on the
man In front, and If a bike rider h:is
confidence In ills man, ho will bo found
near tho front all the time, barring acci
dents. Norman Anderson. Peerless Jimmy
Hunter and Speedy Vanderberry have
been having some great contests this
jear. Anderson has the edge on the
others thus far with three victories in
four starts. Hut Hunter nnd Vander
berry arc In a revengeful mood, and
fullj" expect to pilot home a winner to
night. In addition to this race there will
be two motoioelc races and an amatcui
hicjelo contest.

not stationed any longer In Italy, but
now Is only a few miles outside of Paris
with the aviation corps.
This became known here today in a
letter from Spanow Kobertson, one of
the leading track and field critics of
this country, now In France, to a friend
in New York. Ilobertson and (leorge
Zann, of this city, arc at present re

It was on this track that the 1900

Kveni.no Pijfmc I.F.naEn, who Is over

were recently- held to select a team to
compete w itli the pick of the section of
Blols on Memorial Day. Jaffe finished
third In the fifty-yard dash.
A very amusing Incident arose during;
the try-outs. It Is best told by Bat
talion Sergeant Major Jaffe In his letter.
"We have a big fellow, John Clarke by
name, who Isn't whameful to admit
that he comes fronj low ay," writes
Jaffe, "or some other place where the
tall grass grows. Anyway, 'Chanrn'

12 to 14 Miles to the Gallon!
'Triple -heated" gas that's
the secret of this excess mileage.
That's one of the big, contribut
ing factors to the tremendous
economy of FULTON Motor
Trucks.
Reports from owners in all
parts of the country and in over
300 different lines of business
show consistent average econo
my records of 12 to 14 miles to
the gallon.
"Triple-heated" gas means a
greater "liveliness," a more ready
response to the spark, a full and
complete explosion that clears the
chamber and extracts the last atom
of power from the fuel,
That's economy that takes figures
off your gasoline bill and puts them
on your mileage where they belong.
FULTON ton-and-a-half trucks.
FULTON internal -gear drive per
mits a lighter rear construction (nor
less strong, however). The FULTON
truck is sensationally sturdy, but
the weight is scientifically dis
tributed. This means an important
saving in tires and general upkeep.
FULTON trucks are built in the
largest factory in the country devoted
exclusively to the multiple, production
of ton - and-a-half, trucks. William
Fulton Melhuish, well known in the
truck industry for 15 years, has con
centrated all of his efforts, all his
experience, all his expert organization
on just this one model.
And we have a list of prominent
users that in itself proves FULTON
worth. We will gladly show you
owners in your line of business who
are profitably operating one or more
FULTONS.
