A caravan of fourteen automobiles left San Francisco at 8.30 o'clock the morning of May 20, carrying dele gates from,the San Francisco Adver tising Club to the convention of ad men at St. Louis, which opened June :t. A short ceremony was held at tne City Hall shortly before the cars • started for their long trip. Mayoi Rolph handed the delegates a letter to Mayor Kiel, of St. Louis, before officially starting the caravan. The big idea of the cross-country caravan I was primarily to boost San I- ninclseo as the place for the 191S convention. The delegates were well armed to put it over successfully—and they did. 1 Chester N. Weaver.

BOROUGHS MUST BE CONSIDERED Governor Vetoes City Plan ning Commission Exten sion Measure Governor Brumbaugh has an nounced his veto of the House bill extending authority of city planning commissions of, third class cities to within six miles of city limits. Under existing law they have authority for three miles. The Governor says the bill would give cities power over bor oughs which might happen to lie within six miles, which the Governor styles "imposing the will of a city over territory not within its jurisdic tion." The Governor says "It carries the power of the city too far and it moreover does not define the agericy that shall be competent to declare what boulevard, parkway or main artery of travel leading into such city shall for six miles be subject to the directive regulation of the city planning commission." The Governor says approval of the bill would inter fere with existing laws, and adds: "While it is important that planning commissions should have abundant power in their own jurisdictional bounds and legislation to that end is welcome, it is regrettably true that this bill goes too far and is in viola tion of the defined rights of outlying territory." The Governor also vetoed the fol lowing: Senate bill regulating paying of deposits in two or more names say ing no good purpose could be served hy approving the bill and that end less complications would ensue. Senate bill to enable foreign relig ious and charitable corporations to hold real estate, saying the bill leaves the whole subject open, to litigation and vexatious delays. House bill providing that public roads thrpugh Indian reservations shall be maintained us State high ways, the Governor holding that it seeks to overcome a veto of a sim ilar bill specifically relating to the Cornplanter reservation in Warren county. The Governor also says "Un less there is a commanding reason for it, no roads should be added to an already over-burdened system. If the people want good roads they must lessen the present mileage or appropriate more money." Senate bill amending salary board bill to give the president right to cast a vote in case of tie, the Gov ernor contending that it gives one man two votes and lacks provision for minutes. Bill approved were all House measures as follows: Validating borough liens for pav ing and curbing. Authorizing Governor to make deed for property in Pittsburgh in transaction relating to site for arm ory purposes. Providing for issuance of writs of execution against property in spend thrift trusts. "ALT MY TROUBLES ~ ARE GONE" HE SAYS Lancaster Hotel Proprietor! Tells of Fine Work Donei By Sanpan.

HASJUSBURG <£sHd TELEGRAPH ' PINAFORE PURE AND HUMOROUS \ High School Comic Opera Is Greeted by Capacity House By JOHN \\. PHILOPS Though the first duty of music ls to elevate and refine, yet it will be readily admitted that a second duty, even if considered of lower worth, is to amuse, and entertain; to enliven and exhilarate. Out of this second duty of music comic opera was born. The hardest struggle in this class | of musical entertainment has been to I keep it pure, bright and funny. Our I ideals in this respect have not been i lealized, especially in many so-called modern comic operas, which have been nothing more than vulgar, bla | tant, inartistic conglomerations of i variety shows. Happily, the lives of | most of these have been short, and it ii to be hopeH that this fact will bring about a real reform along this line. This delightful opera was success fully presented at the Orpneum Theater last evening by the senior ciass of Central high school. Sincere commendation is due to Principal H. G. Dibble for his choice of an opera so tried and true and sweet as "Her Majesty's Ship Pinafore." It was .iust the right thing for the young folks, and parents and guardians should be sincerely plqased with the cordial appreciation shown by the large and delighted audience. Choruses Hit The cast was well selected and the opera went with tolerable smooth ness, although a trifle slow in action, j The chorus should show more in | terest in the proceedings. A little i more snap here and there would sharpen the interest and add sparkle to the whole performance. The admiral's part was cleverly taken by Bernard Wert, whose words were clearly spoken and sung. He was well made up, although we missed the muttonchop whiskers so much in vogue in those days. Frank Witherow impersonated Captain Cor coran with excellent effect. He has a pleasing voice, good stage presence and acted his part with judgment. Jerome Hamilton, familiarly known as Jerry, played Ralph Rackstraw, the able seaman and—able lover. Mr. Hamilton has appeared with success in many former productions, so he must almost be classed as a professional. He acts with a freedom and ease that instantly wins favor, and this .together with a voice that is well adapted to light opera work, makes a winning combination. Harold Eckert, as Dick Deadeye, was not so fierce as we expected him to be. In fact, he was a likable chap, although he tried hard to play the villain, and would have succeeded but for the "bosun," who threatened him from time to time. Deadeye acted the part well and spoke in true sailor fashion, and so did James Dougherty as the bosun, who tow ered a full foot above Deadeye. Al phonsis Cashman as the midshipmite was there, too, and added his touch of humor. Getha High as Josephine made a charming heroine. She has person ality and attractive stage presence. She has a clear soprano voice of good compass, not yet matured in flexibility or evenness, but full of splendid possibilities. Her acting won hearty approval and her singing was rewarded by spontaneous ap plause and some beautiful flowers. Hazel Seibert played the part of Hebe. It is not, of course, a big part, but Miss Seibert seemed to be thor oughly at home on the stage. She fitted the part thoroughly, and her true, firm voice was heard to splen did advantage both in the solo bits and in leading the chorus. Secure Pretty Effects The role of little Buttercup was intrusted to Louise Johnson. Miss Johnson could not look like a bum boat woman if she tried: but she did sing and act the part with rare dis cernment. She has a pleasing, rich voice, steady and firm. Her articu lation is good. She ha 3 a fine sense of rythm and was always sure of herself. She displayed more than average talent. WOMAN' COMMITS SUICIDE Chambersburg, Pa., June 16. Mrs. Mary Ernhart, aged 30 years, committed suicide at the home of Luther Frieze, a tenant on the Burg ner farm near here yesterday morn ing. Mrs. Ernhart lived at Phila delphia and was a boarder at the Frieze home where she came about six weeks ago, on account of ill health. She is survived by her moth er and two children living at Phila delphia. Her uncle, Max W. Beck man, of Philadelphia, was with her at the Frieze home. SCHOOL BOARD UNABLE TO ELECT NEW DIRECTOR Will Special Session to Name Successor to Dr. Yates Refusing to elect Spencer C. Gil bert, prominent business man of the city, to the School Board, and failing to get a majority of votes for Ralph E. Boswell, 30 North Seventeenth street, the faction members of the School Board will attempt next Wednesday afternoon to name a suc cessor to the Rev. Dr. William N. Yates, who resigned because of the action of Directors 8011, Boyer, Bretz, Keen and Werner in naming archi tects for the high school program. The board yesterday split into three divisions when Directors Stamm, Bacon and Enders voted for Mr. Gil bert, who was nominated by Mr. Enders; Directors 8011, Boyer, Bretz and Keen balloted for Mr. Boswell, and President Werner named George W. MacWiiliams. No second ballot was taken, the board adjourning after fixing next Wednesday afternoon for a special meeting. If the vacancy is not filled by July 1, the county court will have the power to name Dr. Yates' suc cessor. The five controlling members, how ever, decided this was not necessary and passed the recommendation that architects of Harrisburg should be invited to submit plans for the work at the meeting on July 6. Approval of contracts with C. How ard Lloyd and Verus T. Ritter, two of the four architects to design the new high schools and alterations work, will be taken up at a meeting ot the board as a committee of the whole. In adopting the finance com mittee report yesterday the board authorized the bond issue of $400,000 of the million and a quarter loan. Other routine business included the election of additional teachers for Central and Tech high schools, awarding of plumbing and painting contracts for school repairs. A resolution to take possession of the Jacob Simonetti heirs' property adjoining the Technical high school for school purposes by petitioning the court for viewers was adopted. Immediate provision of a new open-air school, need of better ad ministration quarters for city school officials, the success of the continua tion schools, important developments in the city district during the last year, and a recommendation that an other junior high school principal should be elected in the near future, were some of the things which Dr. F. E. Downes, city school superin tendent, called to the attention of the School Board in a section of his annual report. In speaking of the open-air school situation Dr. Downes said: "The only drawback in this philanthropic work Is the unsatisfactory buildings in which the school are housed. These pupils should have the most con venient, sanitary and cheerful school accommodations that the city can afford to provide. The expense of operation would be saved by placing all open-air pupils in a new building under one roof, would practically pay the interest charges on the cost of erecting the building." The board at present is considering the employ ment of an architect to draw plans for a one-story open-air school of modern design. Allies to Train Their Aviators in United States Washington, June 16. Plans for making the United States a great ele mentary training base for aviators of all the allied nations have been formulated by the defense council s aircraft production board, which be lieves this country can supply only machines suited for training work for some months to come, but can take care of the needs of all the allies in that respect. „ t French and British plants under the plan would be released for the manu facture of battlecraft exclusively, while American plants are developing a battle type which by next spring probably could give a formidable and steadily increasing addition to the French and British supplies. "Our plan contemplates nothing less than driving the German fliers out of the air and maintaining a con stant raiding patrol over territory for fifty miles back of the lighting lines, said Chairman Howard K. Coffin, of the board, in a statement last night. "Jfe we carry, the permanent suprem acy of the allies In the air is assured. What we need is the money to carry the program through." American Ship Loses Battle With Submarine Washington, June 18. The armed American tank steamer, Moreni, of the Standard Oil Company's fleet, after a spectacular running tight with a German submarine lasting two hours, was sunk on the morning of June 12, according to dispatches re ceived at the State Department yes terday. ' Two members of the crew died of wounds, another died of heart failure in the lifeboat, and a fourth member was drowned while attempting to es cape from the sinking ship. Paige Does 30 Miles in 22 Minutes and 4 Seconds Bowling along at a steady, unvary ing speed of 80 miles an hour, a Paige car, "Six-51" stock chassis, cov ered 30 miles in 22 minutes and four seconds in the Cincinnati races Mem orial Day and thus scored a distinct achievement that its sponsors regard as significant. The event was the 30-mile Invita tion race open to stock cars, there being no restrictions as to motor size. The regular Paige "51" model chassis was used. There was no enlargement of the motor, no enlargement of the valves, and the crankshaft and com shaft were the name as those em ployed In all "51" models. The gear ratio on the rear axle was changed for greater speed, which ls an alteration that can easily be made for any purchaser and therefore not a vital departure from the regular stock model. The only other changes were of a similar nature, such as the addi tion of a magneto for ignition, ad ditional oiling facilities and the lightening of the piston and connect ing rods. The Paige did not stop at the pit at any time, and In a tleld of four of the best-known cars llnlshed second. In view of the conditions that pre vailed and the open nature of the race, the Paige officials are vastly proud of the showing of their car.

The Hudson Company made an in quiry Into the reason for so many Super-Sizes being engaged on the speedway. Th answer was simple. Nervy yi.ung chaps had learned that with a few inexpensive alterations a Hudson stock car could be converted into a racer which could always be depended upon to maintain high speed and llnish every race. "They were therefore able to equip a racing enterprise for several thousand dollars which could com pete on better tnan even terms with the special racing machines which cost as high as to construct. "And these speedway buccaneers make racing pay. Just take some of the recent Hudson starts, exclusive of the authorized factory fleet. A Super-Fix won the first place In the Cincinnati free-for-all. A. 11. Patter son. in a Super-Six, won the 100- mile Floral Classic at Santa Rosa. Amaury Munos, of Mexico City, wo both of the big- annual events on the La Condesa racetrack with a Super- Six. Glenn Breed took two first places in two free-for-alla at Mexico. A Super-Six finished second at tha Michigan State Fair Grounds race. May 30. Another finished second at Uniontown the same day. And these performances were all against spe cially built racing cars. "No other stock car could be con verted and campaigned with evfen fair success as a racer. That's the reason Super-Sixes predominate on the speedway. "Drivers will tell you that the qual ity that makes the Super-Six such s successful race vessel Is its endur ance. it can travel fast and it al ways finishes. When faster cars are forced to the pits or drop out be cause ot engine trouble the Super- Six keeps going and takes the prlz* money. And every Hudson stock ca has the same qualities of enduranca and power and speed that Super-Six i racers are demonstrating on a score 3
