thereby winning third place In that
classification. Each team won eight t
bouts, but the Americans scorcu tnirty

land. The finish in the 100-meter race yes
terday wos still the subject of dispute
today. The French have filed a protest
oer the start also, so a meeting of the
Olvmple games jury wns called for this
afternoon to consider the whole ques
tion nnd Inspect the photographs taken
by the official photographer of th
Swedish athletic team. Some of these
photographs of the finish clearly show
Scholz, the American, nway ahead of
Allkhnn, the Frenchman, who was
placed fourth, while Scholz was declared
to have finished fifth.
An official order wns said to have
been given to place Scholz fourth, but
the Belgian press announcer, ns well ns
the result on the board, scored Scholz
fifth.
The afternoon program included the
first series In the 110-meter hurdles, the
final In the brond jump nnd the final in
the 1000-meter run.
Interest iu todny's events was stimu

LAD IN PRESIDENTS AUTO
THOUGHT HE WAS KIDNAPPED
'Tilly Lost His Nerve Despite Assurances of "First Lady of
the Land" and Companions Lost Movie Passes
Bv a Staff Corrt$t6ndtnt
Washington. Aug. 17. What worries
Marcus mosi U thnt"Tlly,, got scared
and thought he was being kidnapped.
Ho they all got out of the car before It
reached the Whlto House, nnd didn't
get the movie passes after all
Scores of times since It happened the
three boys who went riding with the
Jresldent have been called on to tell
t""c whole story from beginning to end.
Ontario street buzzes with It nnd the
Vthole neighborhood comes out when a
photogrnphcr appears. And for that
matter it's the talk of a town surfeited
with the doings of cabinet members and
ambassadoro and ministers and diplo
mat nnd society folks, but seldom hear
ng or caring about kids Just plain
kids.
For that's what Marcus. "Tilly"
and "Mickey" nre. and it hasn't
changed them to be envied by most of
the boys In the United States who have
heard about Jt.
Marcus Mensh, being fourteen and the
son of Ontario street's leading Austrian
grocer, is the leader of the gang.
Tilly Falloue, seven yenrs old, nnd
uot so wise as his associates, holds
forth dally In the little Italian barber
shop run by Victor Fnllone. his father.
Michael Joseph Dcegan. who is Joseph
to his mother but "Mickey" to the
gang, comes In between he is ten, nnd
the son of Charley Dcegan, the taxi
driver. Everybody on Ontario street
knows everybody else on Ontario street,
no when nil three boys came home and
told the same story it soou got around.
When the three set together it is
usunlly Marcus who does the talking.
'"An we wnsn't In swimmlii' nt all."
he protests. "We was gnln' in, but the
water wns too cold. We'd been wndln'
In the creek nnd wus goln' home, when
along come the car and somebody said
'Hop In.' nnd we hopped! Wc wns nil
wet and muddy, but that didn't make
no difference to them. An' 'Tilly' he
dripped water on the President's shoes,
but the President told hlni not to mind
it was nil right. The President was
goiu' to give us all passes to the mov
ies, but 'Tilly' he got scared he
thought he was belli kidnapped. He
kept wnntln' to eet out. so we nsked
them to let us nil out at Knloroma road.
And they did. Gee! It was all right,
too!"
It wns Marcus whom the President
first asked to ride. The big White
House limousine, with the great seal of
the I'nlted States on the door, slowed
down heslde the hoys before thev no
ticed it. The secret service man on
the front seat motioned to Marcus. Wet
nnd muddv, he came tin. gasped In as

others held hack until they were called,

ing from a train on P. and It. lines
through n trestllng twenty-five feet to
the ground, ronrlea WAShlnsKy, ngeel
sixteen years, of Shenandoah, was in
stantly killed today. Ho was returning
from a picnic nt Lakeside when the
dential Invitation, they all "hopped" In
and off they went.
Jirs. Wilson did most of the talking.
Marcus explains. The President looked
well, "but older than he Is." nccordlng
to the same authority. Mrs. Wilson
started off the conversation by asking
"a lot of questions," including their
names, where they lived, how many
brothers they hnd, who their parents
were whether they played baseball nnd
where they went swimming.
She asked "Mickey' how many
brothers he had, and "Mickey" said
"I'hnvc you bent," snld Mrs. Wil
son ns her small guests remember it.
"I hnve four!" , . ...
Whereupon Marcus interrupted to
" '"I have yon beat I have fife!"
And the first lady of the land smiled.
Mnreus also seems to hnve done, most
of the talking for the game. perunP"
being the oldest nnd knowing mpst
nbout movies, swimming holes and his
tory. He pointed out "Shady Rock,'
in Rock creek, where they go swim
ming on hot da. The President look
ed closely as If to mark the spot for fu
ture reference.
Mrs. Wilson asked their favorite ac
tors. When she was told "Bill Hart
nnd Douglas Fairbanks" she smiled
and sold she "expected that." Presi
dent Wilson told tho boys he had en
joyed several of the films the boys liked
But the moment of greatest triumph
enme when they Saw "Fishel" Corn
field, their buddy, who likewise lives in
Ontario street. "Fishel" was standing
in the street with his "bike."
"Hey, Fishel!" yelled Marcus from
the Hmousin. ,
"Fishel" dropped his "bike" nnd
stood speechless. He thought they were
"pinched." LL,
All this time "Tilly" kept getting
paler nnd whispering to Marcus: I
want to go home. I want to go home.
"We're not going to kidnap u.
Mrs. "Wilson told him. But "Tilly '
refused to be reassured. Even the
promise of an annual pass to u movie
show fniled to entice "Till" farther
from home. So finally they got out
and ran home as fast as their legs would
carry them, to become the heroes of the
neighborhood.
There is one point Mnreus nlmost
overlooked In telling the story, nnd only
remembered nfterwnrd. It's about au
tomobiles. It seems "Tilly" started nn
rrgument nbout cars, and Marcus said
Ms father had n "Mitchell" and n
"Ford." Then up spoke "Tilly :
"My father hns a 'Ford.' loo. An

U. S. MARINE AIDED
BY SHIPPING DEAL
Agreement Between Board and
Hamburg-American Line of
Great Advantage
'By n Staff CorrMpositcnt
Washington, Aug. 17. Officials of
the I'nlted States shipping board to
dav described the deal between the
Ildliburg-Amerlcan Lino nnd the Amer
ican Ship nnd Commerce Corporation
providing for tho joint tiso of all agency
nod terminal facilities of tho two com
panies, as one. of the greatest steps
forward ever taken by the American
shipping industry.
They say It Is the most Important
transaction in the Interest of American
shipping Binco the conclusion of the war.
No question of ownership or control,
financial or otherwise, is Involved in
the ngrcement. Each company retains
its separate identity nnd interest, nnd
the agreement represents merely n
business nrrnngement providing for tho
interchange of all facilities of the Ger
man companies on nn equal basis.
The American company will hne an
initial advantage in a clause provid
ing that each company shall hnve tho
right to supply one-half the tonnage
required for any specified trade routo,
but if the Hamburg-American Line hns
not the tonnage for Its half, the
American corporation may supply it.
The fundamental princlpnl of the agree
ment is thnt each service shall have
equal rights with the other.
Another advantage the American
company will have Is the full use of all
terminals nnd neencles of the German
line in nil parts of the world. It is
predicted here that the deal will give an
important impetus to American foreign
trade nnd cnnble American shipping to
obtain n foothold it could not secure
otherwise for years to come.
Shipping bnnrd officials declared the
board had had only nn informal Interest
in the agreement. They explained that
the board, os n governmental ngency,
could not hnve any dealings officially
with the German Government in view
of the technical stnte of wnr still exist
ing between the two tuitions.
